Li Er and others were a little puzzled. Isn’t farming and harvesting grain based on people? Isn’t there so many people growing as much grain? After all, there are only a limited acre of land that can be cultivated and taken care of by a person. Even if he knows that there are thousands of acres of fertile land in front of him, he can’t farm alone.

"Auxiliary machine? What do you mean?

When popularizing immortal grain, isn’t it necessary to ensure that every household has immortal grain to grow?

Could it be that these 30% gaps have any harm to the Tang Dynasty?" Li Er said inexplicably.

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not a harm, but a auxiliary machine has thought of some benefits. If it can solve the problem of 30% of the desert fields, the Tang Dynasty will have many benefits."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "What Lao Fang said is very true, and I am the one who thinks this.

We have made a three-year dormant plan, and we want to have strong troops and abundant food and grass in three years, and pacify all directions in one go.

However, according to my calculations, the harvest of the immortal grain planting for another season after it is popularized next year may not be insured. After all, there are many people in the four barbarians, and maybe we need a long-term battle. The longer the time it takes, the more food and grass you need.

Yang Guang set up three huge granaries back then, but he was disappointed in the face of Goguryeo, so he must be careful about the food and grass issues."

Li Er nodded and said, "Since that's the case, what are you good ideas? You might as well speak out."

Changsun Wuji shook his head, "I don't have any good ideas. I just feel a little sad when facing this huge wasteland.

If you want to solve the problem, you may still need to take action, because the iron cow invented by the Marquis can greatly increase the farming speed and is more than ten times more efficient than the efficiency of one person and one cow. If every household has an iron cow, it is probably not a problem even if there is ten times more wasteland."

"No, a good idea. We have seen the iron cow. It is definitely a powerful tool for plowing the fields."

Many people echoed.

"How can this matter be so easy? The output of Datang steel has not been raised yet, and iron bulls can only be supplied in limited quantities at present." Li Er sighed.

"Since it is a population shortage, it should increase the population. The Tang Dynasty has been stable at present and can implement a policy of encouraging childbirth. The court came forward to encourage childbirth. If each family can have three or five more children, it will not take more than ten years, and it will be endless to use it." Li Jiancheng suggested.

Of course everyone knows this truth, but for more than ten years? We want to solve this problem within one year, but we can't wait for more than ten years to take revenge and destroy the country.

"Why not invite the marquis to come? He always has many strange plans." Changsun Wuji spoke.

Yes, I asked Bai Fan directly to ask. After all, whenever there are major events, Bai Fan always has some ideas that others cannot think of.

Li Jiancheng looked up at Changsun Wuji, and always felt that something had changed today. It seemed that this guy had a ghost. Could it be that he had something to do? He planned to plot against my son-in-law? With you, a relative, do you dare?

An hour later, Bai Fan came to the Political Consultative Hall. Although the eunuch on the way had already explained the affairs of the Political Consultative Hall, Bai Fan was still amused when he saw a group of people scratching his head.

"Jianzhi, you're here.

I have encountered a problem. Next year, the fairy grain will be implemented nationwide. However, according to statistics, Hebei, Hedong, Shandong, and even Henan have been suffering from wars and population shortages, and a large area of ​​wasteland is left behind. Is there any way to develop and utilize these wastelands?" Li Er said anxiously.

The reason why Li Er is so concerned about this issue is because he is afraid that his great cause will be postponed. After all, he has been ascended the throne for five or six years. Although he is only thirty-five years old, an emperor can only make achievements and conquer the world for at most twenty years. His dream is huge and he doesn't want to delay for a quarter of an hour.

After hearing this, Bai Fan jumped and dodged: "Your Majesty, you can't do this. The steel of the Tang Dynasty was allocated by me. When the output was insufficient in the past few years, we used it to make various industrial machinery, so we couldn't let you use it to build iron cattle farming.

There are wastelands every year, and I have never seen the imperial court care about it before.

Besides, with fairy grains, the people no longer have to go hungry and cause famine. Why are they greedy to plant so many fields?"

Li Er sighed: "I also know this is the reason, but the Tang Dynasty decided that it was not strong in resilience. If we could have more food, even if there was a major natural disaster, it would be a little more insurance.

Besides, when three years arrive, we will fight to the outside world, and the more food the better.”

Bai Fan still didn't understand, what kind of drama is Li Er acting in?

At this time, Changsun Wuji stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the words of the Marquis of Lantian are reasonable. The Tang Dynasty is now in ruins. The Marquis is dedicated to developing commerce and labour. This is the foundation of a strong national strength.

As for the wasteland problem, it is actually a population problem. This cannot be rushed. We can only follow the laws of the King of Jin and vigorously encourage childbirth. I think more than ten years later, the Tang Dynasty will prosper and the population will increase sharply, which is a good time to rise."

this?

Li Er nodded and praised. The truth is true. This is also the virtuous cycle that Bai Fan has always insisted on. But how did you raise the problem today? You are the one who compromised in the end? I always feel that my brother-in-law is a bit strange today.

Bai Fan looked around and found that everyone had different expressions. Some were still pondering against solutions. Some were free and some had strange eyes. Among them was his father-in-law Li Jiancheng.

Think carefully about what the eunuch on the road Lao Gao reminded himself that today's topic was the issue of wasteland utilization. Changsun Wuji led it to the iron ox, and now led it to the population. This is what he thought...

Okay, okay, you fat old fox, dare to plot against me? Bai Fan sneered in his heart, who gave him the courage to do this? How dare you talk about this in such a big circle? Aren’t you afraid of death?

He cursed in his heart, but Bai Fan didn't care about it, and immediately smiled and said, "Population problem? Why do you need more than ten years later? The Beggar Gang's disciples under this marquis cannot solve all the wasteland, but it is still no problem to be able to win 30% of them. It is the honor of the Beggar Gang to be able to earn 30% of the food for the country."

Li Er was overjoyed, "Haha, okay, I almost forgot that Jian Zhi still has a new force."

Changsun Wuji said: "No, in this way, the Marquis' Beggars' Sect will all be devoted to becoming the common people of the Tang Dynasty's farming fields. Wouldn't it be..."

Changsun Wuji said this, why did he feel like he was a change of concept? Bai Fan only said that he would let the Beggar Gang disciples go to farm, but he didn't say that he wanted to become a farmer in the Tang Dynasty.

"Hahahaha, Duke Zhao, you are wrong.

This is a great opportunity. The disciples of the Beggar Gang were originally the people of the Tang Dynasty. Because they were desperate, they could only go on the road to beg for a living. Now that the Tang Dynasty is booming, the disciples of the Beggar Gang returned to their hometown to work as farmers. With a good life of self-reliance, who would still be willing to be a beggar who is entrenched?

Your Majesty, since the development of the Tang Dynasty has been on track, I decided to go back and disband the Beggars' Sect and let millions of gangs living on the streets return home to farm. The Tang Dynasty can reduce the burden on one stone and generate millions of excellent farmers in one fell swoop.

This is also a symbol of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, a great thing."

Bai Fan deliberately said that he was more serious about his breathing. In the past, he called Changsun Wuji, but now he has become Duke Zhao. He is obviously treated differently. Everyone present is a talented person, and anyone can hear the dissatisfaction.

Changsun Wuji complained in his heart, and indeed, he would definitely revenge the Lantian Hou. This is not bad. Even if he did it implicitly, the other party could think of it with a little speculation, "A monster, but he is still known as an old fox?" He is really a false reputation.
