The Feng family really didn't think about rebelling. After all, the gap between Lingnan and Zhongtu is so big at this time, rebelling is to book an express bus for the whole family to go directly to the underworld.

Their original intention was to increase the power in their hands, but this approach was essentially rebellion.

Although Li Yunze did not take the path of striving for world hegemony this time, his idea of ​​thinking for the people of China has never wavered.

No matter which parallel world he was in before, he always insisted on this concept seriously.

The Feng family wanted to maintain their position of listening to the tune and not listening to the propaganda, and what they were protecting was their own family's interests, but what they were harming was the lives of the people in Lingnan.

Not to mention that the people in Lingnan will suffer if there is a fight. After all, the people who died the most on the battlefield must be the children, husbands and fathers of the people.

It is said that this invisible confrontation will essentially affect the living standards of the local people.

Among other things, Zhongtu clearly restricted the supply of iron products to Lingnan, which naturally affected productivity.

Affecting productivity, of course, affects the quality of life of the people.

Li Yunze is very aware of this, so this time he made it clear to Feng Zhidai that I don't care if your family wants to be the king of Lingnan, but if Li Er wants to attack, I will definitely sponsor the court, or really give a big sponsor.

Feng Zhidai's face turned green and pale when he said these words, but he didn't know what to say when he wanted to refute.

After all, their Feng family is indeed listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement.

In the end, Feng Zhidai could only sigh, cover his face and walk away.

"The family and the country will choose the family." Li Yunze, who put away the fishing rod, sighed repeatedly, "If I didn't have time and space, I would be the same."

The fleet went north along the coastline, entered the river all the way to the outside of Jiangdu City.

The person waiting here turned out to be Changsun Wuji.

The smiling eldest grandson Wuji stepped forward to greet him, and after seeing the ceremony, he invited Li Yunze into the city for a banquet with a smile on his face.

The gold-plated and silver-plated carriage, inlaid with transparent glass, could be as stylish as it wanted, and was also brought all the way to Jiangdu by Changsun Wuji.

After getting into the carriage, Changsun Wuji first let all the beautiful maids get off, then poured a glass of wine and handed them over, "Children don't know the heights of heaven and earth, Brother Yu is very happy to be able to help educate you."

Li Yunze, who took the wine glass, smiled and asked, "Where did Changsun Huan go?"

"Young people need to sharpen their temper." Changsun Wuji's smile remained unchanged, "Brother Yu sent him back to his hometown to guard the ancestral grave. I hope he can cultivate his morals in front of his ancestors and learn how to be a good person."

Hearing this, Li Yunze raised his brows. As expected of Li Ke's eldest grandson Wuji, he was ruthless when he struck.

Watching ancestral graves is not a good job these days.

Living next to the cemetery for many years and not leaving for leisure is tantamount to a disguised form of imprisonment.

Changsun Huan was not only stripped of his power and glory as the prince of the Duke's Mansion, he was also kicked away and imprisoned.

Li Yunze understood the meaning of Changsun Wuji, if he said at this time, "Children are ignorant, read books for a few days and repent." 'Then Changsun Wuji will definitely go down the slope and release Changsun Huan soon.

"It's the father's fault if the son doesn't teach." Li Yunze's smile deepened. "Even if Duke Qi is busy with his duties, he still has to spare time to educate the children. Otherwise, if the children and grandchildren are unfilial, they might not even be able to protect the tablets."

Changsun Wuji twitched his eyelids and nodded repeatedly, "Your brother is right."

Since Li Yunze is unwilling to let go, then this matter can only be ignored.

As for when the eldest grandson Huan would be able to leave the ancestral grave, it would depend on the subsequent interaction between the eldest grandson's family and Li Yunze.

If the eldest grandson's family needs to beg Li Yunze all the time, then his eldest grandson Huan can only stay at the ancestral grave all the time.

After all, Changsun Wuji has many sons, and Changsun Huan is not the eldest son, so it can only be said that he deserves to be unlucky.

As this incident passed, Changsun Wuji began to talk about the business, "Before leaving Beijing, His Majesty has given you many instructions. It is said that Champa rice is of great importance, and it is far beyond the comparison of spices."

"It's been done." Li Yunze nodded and nodded, "There are enough seeds, are the fields in the south of the Yangtze River ready?"

"The preparations have been made, with a total of [-] mu of land, just in time for spring plowing. As long as the Champa rice can be harvested twice or even thrice a year, we will never have to worry about food shortages in Tang Dynasty."

"You have a beautiful idea, but things are not that simple." Li Yunze shook his head indifferently and said, "The climate in the south of the Yangtze River can achieve two crops a year, but it can't be done further north, at most one crop a year. Want to Three crops a year, it has to be in Lingnan and further south."

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji frowned, "But there is a miasma of smoke over there, barren and useless."

"There is no useless land in the world." Li Yunze was very upset when he heard this. "In the desert, oil can be dug, and in the south, not only Champa rice can be planted three times a year, but also spices and rubber trees. What you said is really impressive. accurate."

"Hehe~~~"

Changsun Wuji changed the topic with a smile, "Your Majesty ordered Brother Yu to handle this matter, and leave the matter of spices to me. You can return to Beijing as soon as possible. Your Majesty is very anxious."

Li Yunze knew why and asked, "What's the hurry?"

"Of course it's about the railway." Changsun Wuji lowered his voice, "Brother Yu has collected a batch of wool from the grassland and put it in Li's Village."

Li Yunze glanced at Changsun Wuji, smiled and didn't say much.

How could Li Er pay attention to the railway for the sake of wool? He clearly took a fancy to the railway's ability to move troops quickly!

Datang's military deployment concentrated the main force around Chang'an City.

If the railway is really as magical as Li Yunze said, then no matter where a war or rebellion occurs, he can calmly move the main army to the destination to fight through the railway, so that the impact and loss will be minimized.

As the emperor on horseback, Li Er valued the war-related aspects most.

It is said that it is necessary to leave as soon as possible, but in fact it is not so easy.

The rest of the Champa rice seeds were transported off the ship, and people were arranged to take care of the seeds carefully, looking forward to the miracle of a bumper harvest.

There are also spices like mountains and seas that are shipped off the ship, put into various warehouses and strictly guarded.

Every family has people waiting here in Yangzhou City, and everyone has to sit down and distribute things.

Of course, the spice rewards and wages agreed to be given to the crew on board earlier must be settled in advance.

In addition, Li Yunze also went to see the expanded dock built by Changsun Wuji, and mobilized the craftsmen to drive the big ships into the dock one by one for maintenance.

There are many things, and I have been busy for more than half a month before I can explain it properly.

The follow-up work was handed over to Changsun Wuji, and Li Yunze led a group of dandies and followers from various prefectures, hurried back the same way, and headed straight for Chang'an City.

This kind of long-distance trip with galloping horses was no pressure for Li Yunze, and this time he didn't wait for those who were left behind, and he returned to Chang'an City in just over ten days.

Li Er, who heard the news, hurried to Lijiazhuang.

I haven't seen him for more than half a year. Li Er's mustache is getting longer and longer, and it has a tendency to develop into a big beard.

"This year's spring plowing is over." Li Er didn't ask about the spices, but focused on inquiring about the railway. "You don't have much time left for the agreement with those people."

"It has been arranged a long time ago." Li Yunze responded very simply, "As long as His Majesty has sufficient manpower, it will start soon."

Hearing this, Li Er subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

Although he had seen many miraculous methods of Li Yunze with his own eyes, Li Er still couldn't completely hide his horror when he heard that he was able to produce 5000 million catties of refined iron for laying railways and so on.

That's the 20-year output of the entire Tang Dynasty!
The things Li Yunze prepared were naturally obtained from the modern world.

He bought a sufficient number of scrap rails and sleepers, as well as many spare parts for supporting facilities, from a certain railway company.

The price is also very cheap, close to the price of scrap iron.

In fact, this kind of thing is very difficult to happen in reality, because even if it is to collect scrapped rails or something, it must be a professional person who is qualified to collect it, that is, a person with connections, who wants to go casually Collect rails and treat them as scrap metal, basically

It's just daydreaming.

The reason why Li Yunze was able to do it, and it was so easy, was obviously that a certain railway company had received clear instructions.

After all, he didn't give that deduction, and he didn't go through any channels to find any relationship, but he was able to get tens of thousands of tons of scrap rails. How could it be possible without direct instructions.

He roughly understood that he had been exposed. After all, in the age of technology, it was impossible to erase all traces of large-scale transfers of materials.

But since he didn't take the initiative to make it clear, he pretended that he didn't know anything.

As for when to open the skylight and speak frankly, let's talk about it later.

Li Yunze himself received relevant training in advance, and then he trained the smart people of Datang, all of whom were carefully selected by Li Er who could read and write.

After training, these people will become foremen, and they will lead the corvee workers to work.

After the training was over, the railway from Chang'an City to Shengzhou officially started.

Even if the rails are scrapped after decades of use, their quality is still excellent.

In Li Er's words, it is a precious armor if it is melted to make iron armor.

At the beginning, it was natural that there were all kinds of troubles and mistakes.

But it doesn't matter, this is a job that practice makes perfect, and there is not much technical content. After all, it is not building a high-speed rail.

As long as the train can run [-] to [-] kilometers per hour, the technical content is really not high.

After the spring plowing, it was the slack time for farming, and Li Er was able to mobilize a large number of people to work as corvees.

Moreover, Li Yunze not only paid wages, but also provided three meals a day for everyone. The folk husbands were very motivated.

As time goes by, the construction speed will naturally increase.

The first stop in the north is Yunyang. The most difficult part of this section is to build a bridge on the Weihe River.

In the Tang Dynasty, soil erosion in Guanzhong was not so serious, and the water flow of each river was sufficient and the river surface was very wide.

For example, the Weihe River is more than 100 meters wide.

There is a bridge over the Weihe River, but it is a wooden bridge, which cannot withstand the passage of trains.

Li Yunze handed over the relevant materials to professional companies in the modern world early on, and ordered the corresponding supporting facilities and various parts through them.

After the start of construction, it was transported over for construction, and even a lot of engineering equipment was used.

The main significance of this railway is to display and train workers. When Datang builds other railways in the future, it must be based on the local area.

There's no reason Datang couldn't do what the Ansa bandits could do.
