Li Zheng whispered: "It's just that Dahu's taste is a bit heavy. Are you using too much chili powder?"

Li Tai took a bite of mutton skewers and said, "It's okay, at least it's much better than Cheng Chumo. That guy likes to eat chili bibimbap. There are more chili than rice, and he's just a livestock."

Li Zheng returned to his hut and opened the system panel to see the current situation in Jingyang.

Territory: 20,000 acres, population 28,500.

Mission: The population increased to 30,000.

Mission Reward: Library stage three.

Let’s look at the list of crops in the third stage, library stage, and pharmacy stage.

There are still more than 4,000 tons of iron ore that are not useful yet.

Including the land just drawn by the Ministry of Revenue.

The area of ​​territory has also increased to 20,000 mu.

Nowadays, the utilization rate of Datang iron ore is very low.

It is also consumed a lot during use.

In fact, the iron smelting technology of Datang is not low.

But the utilization rate is very low.

The five-pound iron ore can only barely create a dagger.

The iron material that was not used too much was also consumed.

Li Yifu walked and said, "Chang'an Order, the newly marked land has been settled. Should I go and have a look?"

"Of course I'll go and see it."

Li Tai, who was eating mutton skewers, was thrown into the horse circle. Li Zheng followed Li Yi Mansion to the southeast corner of the village, where the land was newly granted by Li Shimin.

This area is not a wasteland, it is a good place to grow food.

And potatoes and sweet potatoes are not picky.

The old village chief also took several villagers to watch the land.

Li Yifu whispered: "Chang'an Order, is this land really meant to be used to build a printing shop?"

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Of course there is land for farming."

Li Yifu whispered: "Didn't your Majesty say that these lands are used for printing bookshops?"

From a distance, I watched the old village chief and his fellow villagers laugh all the way.

Li Zheng sighed and said, "Did Your Majesty issue an order to use this land to expand the seal shop?"

Li Yifu shook his head, "It seems that there is no one."

"That's all."

"But if His Majesty comes to ask."

"Of course, the land must be fully utilized. Besides, even if such a large land is used to expand into a printing workshop, how many printing workshops are needed? Can our current manpower in Jingyang be allocated?"

After saying this, Li Yifu also thought about it. It is true. If all the five thousand acres of land are used to build a printing workshop according to His Majesty’s requirements.

The scale will be very large, and even if you need to use a manpower, you will have to increase thousands of people. If it is based on the current Jingyang Printing Bookstore.

Today's book printing workshops are busy with papermaking, layout and revision.

If all these 5,000 acres of land were used to build a book printing workshop, the manpower needed might be thousands or tens of thousands.

What is the current population of Jingyang?

This is not enough to say that Li Yifu's mind wakes up.

Li Yifu asked in a low voice: "Chang'an Order, I'm afraid this errand cannot be done."

Li Zheng nodded slightly.

Li Yifu said anxiously again: "What should we do now? Do we still have to recruit people?"

Li Zheng wanted to slap Li Yifu on the forehead, and said helplessly: "Recruiting people is a lot of money, recruiting people. Do you think my money is blowing from the strong wind?"

Li Yifu said in distress: "What should we do?"

Li Zheng sat on a stone and said, "Your Majesty asked me to expand the seal shop and just gave me a piece of land. He didn't have to pay or provide anyone? He wanted me to do everything? He thought it was pretty."

After taking a look around, Li Yifu said, "Chang'an Order, such words are a bit ruthless."

Li Zheng glanced at Chang'an and sneered, "He can't hear it again."

Li Yifu was still a little worried, "But what we can't do if our Majesty explains?"

"Does he want to expand the printing shop? In fact, what he really wants is the output of the printing shop."

Li Yifu nodded, "Your Majesty wants Chang'an to order the expansion of the sealing shop, but he thinks that there are too few books that can be printed in the sealing shop."

"I think this is a very stupid way to use huge workshops to pile up to increase production."

Li Yifu said: "Is there any better way?"

Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand and said, "Today I will be very kind and teach you a lesson."

"I would like to hear the details."

Li Zheng said: "Using scale-up production efficiency is a very consuming and extremely huge project. The manpower and material resources it requires several times that of the original, which is a very thankless thing. Rather than saying that this is better to use technology to change the output."

Li Yifu nodded and listened seriously.

Li Zheng continued: "The core of the project is technology. Technology determines many things. Look at the gap between the printing press workshop in Chang'an and our printing press workshop in Jingyang."

Li Yifu thought and said, "It is said to be more than ten times."

"That's it, because I have movable type printing technology, they don't. Now my efficiency is ten times that of theirs. So can we continue to change technology to increase the output by dozens of times? At that time, there is no need to expand the scale for thousands of acres. You can build an extra printing workshop with dozens of acres of land to achieve the output that Your Majesty wants."

"Scale can increase production, but cannot get technological innovation. You can do something that can make a big difference, so why do you have to do thankless things?"

When Li Yifu heard this, he woke up like a bone-cutting empowerment and asked, "Do you dare to ask the Chang'an Order, have any clever plans?"

"Of course there is."

"I dare to ask what is the Miao Clause."

“Mobile type printing machine.”

"What chicken?"

Li Zheng sighed: "You won't understand even if you say it."

Li Yifu was a little confused, "The words of Chang'an Order are still as profound and unfathomable, I admire them."

"I admire you very much if you have any disagreement."

"Chang'an Order has been over-rewarded."

Xu Jingzong has been busy with journalists now.

A lot of information is sent to Jingyang every day.

Recently, Xu Jingzong has been busy sorting out this information every day.

Li Zheng returned to the horse circle and looked at Xu Jingzong who was sorting out books.

Seeing Li Zheng coming back, Xu Jingzong hurriedly said, "Chang'an Order, this is about Princess Yongjia."

After taking the book, Li Zheng looked at the content above and found that Princess Yongjia and Changsun Wuji had contact.

Li Zheng put down the book, "Why do I always feel something is wrong?"

Xu Jingzong asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did you say I set up an intelligence organization without knowing it?"

Xu Jingzong thought about it and said, "Information organization? It's a good name. Isn't the reason why Chang'an Order recruits these reporters for intelligence?"

Li Zheng shook his head and said, "Wrong, I am trying to record the simplicity of the people in Chang'an and the truth, goodness and beauty of the world."

Xu Jingzong nodded pertinently, "Chang'an Order is right. Now our eyeliners are as far as Tubo and Western Turks."
