As soon as the few people discussed what to eat, they saw Li Xiuning and Changsun Wuji riding over on horseback.

Li Yu looked at Changsun Wuji who had passed by and asked, "Why are you two here at this time? Have you finished your official duties?"

"Haha, I just pointed out the supplies of the Ku Mansion." Changsun Wuji laughed and said, "After taking the soldiers back to Lecheng without blood, the biggest advantage is that I got all the supplies of the Ku Mansion in the city."

Huilecheng, as the capital of Liang State, which had been run by the Liang State for several years, although it did not exceed 100,000 people at its highest, it still stocked up a large amount of food and grass. In particular, the Liang State also regarded it as a base for attacking the Tang army. Last year, it was an offensive base for the Turks to move south, so the storage of materials was richer.

"All the treasurys are intact, and no one dares to steal and misappropriate them." Changsun Wuji took out the list and recited: "The rice, wheat, millet, beans, millet, and other scattered stones in total! More than three million bunches of grass, more than 80,000 war horses, more than 100,000 crossbows, mules and donkeys, more than 50,000 cattle, and more than 400,000 sheep."

"Ten thousand pounds of jerky, tea..."

Changsun Wuji kept reciting all the materials he had harvested this time.

"Stop! Stop," Li Yu interrupted Changsun Wuji and asked, "Don't you need to report this to me?"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "It's not about reporting to you, but about letting you know how much wealth we have now, and help us come up with an idea to see how to manage the Shuofang area."

Li Yu did not expect that in just ten days, Changsun Wuji had already swept the entire city and countryside of Lingzhou. In addition to catching many defeated soldiers who fled, the biggest gain was that many rural populations and various supplies were also obtained.

Li Yu said slowly: "Where is the population?"

In ancient times, the most important resource was population. Especially in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China after the war, population was even more important. In order to increase the population and increase the cornerstone of the imperial court's tax collection, the imperial court could say that it would not miss all kinds of methods.

In ancient times, when you were over the fifteenth year of age, you had to get married, otherwise the government would have to force a marriage, and even a heavy fine would have to be paid.

During this period, the most important part of the performance appraisal of local officials was population. Some officials often went to other areas to loot the population for their political achievements, increasing the number of household registrations under their jurisdiction.

"All registrations have been completed, and the total registered population is more than 277,000."

Li Yu and Zou Zou browed and asked in a tone of disbelief: "What? There are less than 300,000 people, this is the population of two states!"

"We have counted the army and the people in the palace. Originally, Lingwu had stationed 20,000 troops. This time, the Liang army has dispatched a large number of soldiers from nearby states, which has increased a lot of population. Of course, there are also many hidden households in the Liang State. This is the number of people I have seen in person." Changsun Wuji quickly explained.

The generals, bureaucrats and local tyrants in Lianglingzhou all had a lot of property, many slaves, and many people entrusted to their names. These people were not registered in the government, and there were a large number of them.

After recapturing these lands, Changsun Wuji attached great importance to the household registration and was not allowed to exist in a hidden household, and even many slaves were directly released. All of this was subject to careful investigation by the army.

"Then how do you do it now? What are your thoughts?" Li Yu thought and asked.

"Now, the land is divided into equal land, and the original hidden households, escaped people and slaves have to be granted land. For unmarried young men and women, the government will marry them and form a family. The males will be divided into 30 acres of land, the adult women will be divided into 20 acres of land, and the middle-aged men will be divided into 20 acres of land.

If there is no water to irrigate the land, give them the grassland, two-thirds of it to the mouth and one-third to the Yongye field."

Li Yu knew that digging ditches not far from the Yellow River, and irrigating the Yellow River water, would become irrigated land. With the fertility of the west Taurus Plain, it would not be a problem to reclaim millions of acres of land.

Li Yu did not respond, but asked: "When will the remaining states be recovered?"

Li Xiuning, who was sitting on the side drinking tea, responded: "It will be next year after the overall stability."

"I think many soldiers are idle now. It is better to open a farm, divert the Yellow River water to irrigate it, and open up land in the Xitaka Plain, and focus on developing animal husbandry. Here we will soon become rich." Li Yu looked at the grassland in the distance and said, "If the animal husbandry develops, we can open a wool textile factory, milk powder factory, or canning factory..."

"Can wool still be weaved into cloth?" Changsun Wuji looked confused: "What is the milk powder factory, canning factory?"

"What do you, the Prime Minister, think about every day?" Li Yu said to Changsun Wuji with a blanket: "The soldiers I brought were wearing military uniforms, which were made of wool. They were not only warm, but also beautiful. The milk tea I made for you a while ago was made of milk powder, and the meat I invited you to drink and eat that day was canned."

"Ah, I didn't expect that the sheep would still be full of treasures?" Changsun Wuji roared and jumped up.

The wool was thrown away as garbage here and on the grassland. Changsun Wuji was very familiar with the clothes on the soldiers. The fabrics were thick and warm. Is this just picking up money on the ground?

There is also the milk powder that has no smell of milk. The sheep milk on the grassland cannot be finished, so it is thrown away by the herdsmen in vain. I don’t know how much was wasted every year, and the canned meat is also delicious when eaten.

Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji's eyes turned green and he hurriedly said, "Why did Mr. Li, why should we join forces to organize a few such workshops! I will get the funds, how about you provide the technology?"

Li Yu said without hesitation: "It's OK! But this matter is usually managed by Uncle Fu. You can find him after you go back and I will provide you with equipment at that time."

When Changsun Wuji heard the reply, he stood there and said to himself, "This way the development of Shuofang will be easier in the future. The herdsmen here grazed and sold wool and milk. As long as their lives are stable, they will not rebel or cause trouble. The remaining Turks can also handle this."

At the end, he started dancing.

"Don't dance there. As long as you know that sheep can eat people, the Turks' ordinary people will be assimilated and integrated into the Han ethnic group in a few decades." Li Yu was meaningful.

"Wan Shi Jiye didn't expect it to be on a sheep. I have to tell Your Majesty the news quickly." Changsun Wuji said happily: "There is mainly the queen. In the future, my two nephews and one niece will no longer have to worry about money."

After saying that, Changsun Wuji glanced at Li Yu and happily rode his horse away.

"Master, since you know that you can solve the border problem forever, why don't you explain it clearly? You have to rely on him to guess it." Li Xiuning asked in confusion.

Li Yu said: "I don't provide technology and equipment. Can they do these things? I think it's useless to say it."

Li Xiuning asked in a low voice: "Master, did you think of this solution many years ago?"

"I thought about it a long time ago, so what? Who made your father have bad intentions to me at that time? He didn't tell him even if he thought about it, and made your royal family anxious." Li Yu had a smug smile on his face.

Li Xiuning finally saw that his master was cautious and immediately complained: "Master, my father is very nice to you now. Every time I go to the palace, he always asks you why you don't go."

"I think I want longevity medicine, so I keep asking me!"

As soon as he said this, Li Yu saw that Li Xiuning's face was about to turn black and blue, and hurriedly said, "It's not easy for the old man now. I'll go and see him in a few days."

Li Xiuning immediately smiled and said, "Is that right? No matter what, my father is also your father-in-law, right?"

Li Yu clapped his hands and said helplessly: "I have been in a bad mood in my life. I am afraid of everything I do and I feel unhappy in everything. Sometimes I doubt that I am still a monk, and I have forgotten the essence of a monk."

Li Xiuning smiled and said, "Master, I understand that you have suffered a little wronged for our Li Tang, but our Li Tang's most beautiful woman has become a concubine for you, so I'll compensate you."

Li Yu raised his face and said, "When did I treat you as a concubine? Did Fei'er treat you badly?"

"No, I know that the master loves me the most." Li Xiuning said coquettishly.

Li Yu just laughed and cried, didn't answer, and turned around and left.

But after walking a few steps, my wife still had to care for herself, and asked with a smile: "Wife, will you eat hot pot later?"

Li Xiuning's eyes flashed and trotted over, immediately hugged Li Yu's arm and said, "Of course I've eaten. I've eaten the military meals these days. I've lost weight. Do you feel lost by touching me..."

"I haven't lost weight, why do I feel plump than before?"

"Master, you touched the wrong place..."

...

Yang Fei’s bedroom.

The eunuch came in and reported urgently: "Report to Your Majesty, the Yintai reported urgently."

Li Er frowned and said, "It's so late, why are you still urgent to play? Can't you play again tomorrow?"

"Your Majesty is the urgent report of the General of the State, the General of Zuo Wuhou, and the Minister of Personnel, Sun Wuji."

When he heard that it was news from Shuofang Town, Li Er immediately felt energetic and immediately said, "Come on, I'll see it now."

The report was forwarded layer by layer and was soon presented to Li Er.

The report was packed in a bamboo tube, with wax seals on it, with a seal of third sister on it, and a seal of Changsun Wuji next to it.

Open.

Lingwu's great victory, kill Liang Shidu, and restore Lingzhou City!

Seeing the news, Li Er looked overjoyed and watched carefully. After reading it in one go, he couldn't help but slapped the table with a palm.

"I just know that for the things that are difficult for us to do, it is a trivial matter for our third sister and brother-in-law, so that the door to the Western Regions will be opened."

Putting down the military newspaper, Li Er laughed and said, "Haha, it's hard to imagine that in half a month, the Liang army, who had been in charge of Shuofang for nearly ten years, was killed. From now on, the biggest threat in the west was basically eliminated, and I can finally have a safe sleep."

"Your Majesty! What's the matter that makes you so happy?" Concubine Yang showed her pretty face from the bed.

Li Er did not respond, but looked at Yang Fei's moving figure, and quickly stepped onto the bed, saying, "Hey! I'm galloping on the battlefield, and now I can only galloping on you."

Concubine Yang shyly replied: "Your Majesty, your injuries have not healed yet. The imperial doctor asked you to ban sexual intercourse."

"They know nothing. This is the injury and sexual intercourse that was beaten by the gods." Li Er said while undressing and untiing his belt.
