After sending Zhen Yao away, Liu Xie summoned Pu Yuan and asked him to send Zhen Yao a copy of the refining method of refined salt.
With a large number of cultivated cattle in Guanzhong's agriculture into the people, there is no need for Liu Xie to be a promoter, and the Ministry of Industry has tasted the sweetness, and in this regard, it does not need Liu Xie's urging, and it has begun to study and improve various equipment.
Liu Xie is thinking about separating the various departments of the Ministry of Industry in the future, specializing in agriculture, and there are also those who specialize in the direction of military merit, although in the end they cannot escape the shackles of the times, and it is still a cold weapon battle, but if according to the goals put forward by Liu Xie, the bow and arrow string can be more labor-saving, and the range can be longer, and the tenacity of the weapon, even if it is a little progressive, put it on the whole army, it is an overall probability of improvement.
Then you can also divide the direction of people's livelihood and design some exquisite and practical things, such as tables and chairs that have come out today, which can be convenient for the people.
After all, in Liu Xie's planning, in addition to the military industry, other livelihood technologies will not be overly secretive, but will be promoted to the people, after all, for the imperial court, in addition to the core technology, other livelihood technologies are originally to be promoted to the people, the Zhen family or other Lu family, Xun family or something, as long as you have the ability, you can do it, and the ultimate beneficiary is the people, and the court wants to do it.
It is to stipulate the price and collect taxes.
The more you earn, the more you have to pay, because these technologies were researched by the imperial court, and Liu Xie preliminarily formulated that the profits brought by these things researched by the Ministry of Industry, no matter which one takes it, must hand over more than half of the profits.
This is also a means to limit the excessive expansion of wealthy merchants, after all, the field is too big, and in the end, if you count the freight and taxes, there is a possibility of discounting, which is the most primitive means of control, but in this era, it is enough.
Sitting in the Chengming Palace, with the departure of everyone, Liu Xie suddenly felt a trace of unspeakable loneliness, now he is no longer as cautious as he was when he first came to this era, and he has always tensed his nerves, and he has to make all calculations with the people around him.
With the increasing consolidation of power, the power is getting heavier and heavier, but the passion of the past, to now, there is only the calculation all the time, the country, the scholars, the people, the gains and losses of everything, after a long time, Liu Xie found that it is difficult for him to trust anyone now.
Everyone unconsciously opened the distance between them and him, this is the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and he is always on guard against everyone, invisibly, an invisible barrier has been established.
I can't tell if it's a good thing or a bad thing, Liu Xie knows that he is now getting closer and closer to a qualified monarch step by step, but whether he is happy or not, only he knows, sometimes, he also feels that being an emperor is quite boring, but if he is asked to give up everything in his hands now, it is impossible.
There was a wind outside the house, and the breeze blew his neat black hair dancing, Liu Xie shook his head, throwing these chaotic thoughts out of his mind, he knew that such thoughts were not a good thing for himself, but people were not machines, many times, the appearance of emotions was not controlled by people themselves, absolute rationality, and perhaps only the legendary saints could do it.
"Your Majesty, the wind is blowing."
When Wei Zhong came back, he saw Liu Xie standing at the door of the hall blowing the wind, and he couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly stepped forward.
"I know."
Liu Xie faced the wind and looked at the sky, and only nodded after a long time, and said with a smile: "Go back to the palace." ” This inexplicable emotion, or bring some for the better, he has too many things to do, now the salt industry is handed over to Zhen Yao and Zhang Su to be responsible, the imperial court is equivalent to one more entry, with this industry, in the next few years, the imperial court does not have to worry about the problem of funds.
As for a few years later, it won't work, people are the creatures who can learn the most, even if they don't know the principle at the moment, but they know the raw materials, they have seen the finished product, and they want to make it again, it is not difficult.
If the times slowly promote the progress of food culture, it may take hundreds of years for humans to make refined salt, but if there is a finished product and brings huge profits, then the process will be greatly shortened, and the possibility of method leakage must be considered, then this time interval will be greatly reduced.
Secrecy is a very troublesome thing, and Liu Xie is not prepared to keep it secret, the role of the imperial court is not production, but management, not to create wealth, but to distribute wealth, if it is not for the fact that this red can not only obtain huge profits in the short term, but also weaken the financial resources of the princes, Liu Xie will directly spread the method.
As for the future after the princes get the method, even if they make refined salt, in fact, at most, it is self-produced and sold, and the Silk Road is controlled by the imperial court, even if they have a market, the imperial court is stuck with many checkpoints, and if they want to sell it, they can only rely on other methods.
Liu Xie didn't mind seeing the princes opening up in other directions, anyway, in the end, it was also for the Han Dynasty.
As for whether the country in the Western Regions can study it, Liu Xie is not worried, even if the salt is not needed, he still has other things in his hands, such as glass, paper, soap, and so on.
Although he wants to do it himself, it is absolutely impossible to do it, but he has a team, there are a large number of craftsmen to do things for him, all he needs to put forward is the concept, the paper already has, but has not yet been promoted, and the simple paper is useless, and the supporting printing principle is not too difficult.
In fact, Liu Xie is not willing to do it all the time, what he wants to do more is to buy other people's raw materials for processing, and then sell them at double the price, empty gloves white wolf.
Of course, in order to do this, he first needs to build a good business point in the countries of the Western Regions, have a place to settle, use local materials, and then process them locally, and also save the transportation costs on the way, he only needs to provide talents and managers, and use other people's money to grow himself, which is the king.
"Your Majesty, there was news from Qingzhou before, Cao Cao had withdrawn his troops, I heard that the grain and grass were running out, and then General Tai Shici seemed to have some contradictions with Tao Qian, and he also withdrew to Qingzhou."
Back in the hall, Wei Zhong took out a piece of bamboo paper and handed it to Liu Xiedao.
"Oh" Liu Xie raised his eyebrows: "This is unusual, it is difficult for Tao Qian to destroy the Great Wall." took the bamboo note, which was Tai Shici's handwritten letter, and described the process in detail, including Cao Cao's previous abnormalities.
Looking at the content of the letter, Liu Xie couldn't help laughing, he remembered that there was a similar episode in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Mengde wiped Han Sui between the books, and now Han Sui is dead, and the Ma family has entered the dynasty, this story, originally Liu Xie thought that it would not happen again, but it happened to Tai Shici.
However, Tao Qian is also a hero after all, and he didn't really turn his face with Tai Shi Ci, and then the large amount of grain and grass that Tai Shi Ci gave when he left also eased this conflict, so that it would not be difficult to meet in the future.
I always feel like something has been forgotten Liu Xie rubbed his temples, Cao Cao retreated this time because the grain and grass were exhausted, and after the summer grain was harvested this year, I am afraid that he would send troops again, according to Tai Shici's description, next time, if he wants to block Cao Cao again, I am afraid it will not be easy, but Liu Xie always feels that Cao Cao will return in vain this time, and he seems to have missed any important people, but he thought about the surrounding princes carefully, and he didn't think about it.
Forget it, if you can't think of it, you don't want to think about it, after all, it's too far away, and it is difficult for the imperial court to fully control the situation over there, but since Li Ru didn't have a letter, that is to say, the situation over there is not so much that it can't be recovered.
"By the way, how has Ma Chao behaved in the martial arts hall recently" Liu Xie suddenly turned his head and asked.
It seems that with Ma Chao's temperament, I'm afraid I can't tell the difference, and in the place where I talk about martial arts, I'm afraid that no one among the students can cure him.
"I was about to talk to Your Majesty."
Wei Zhong thought for a while and said with a wry smile: "That Ma Chao just recovered from his injury a few days ago, and the first thing he did when he entered the martial arts hall was to challenge General Tong. ” Tong Yuan, the commander of Liu Xie's Praetorian Guard, occasionally goes to the martial arts hall on weekdays to teach students martial arts, and at the same time, as a well-known spear master for many years, he is deeply respected by students.
And Ma Chao is also a gunman, and his marksmanship is not practiced, but honed in a series of battlefield battles, which is naturally comparable to ordinary people.
The so-called newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, especially for Ma Chao, the names of Tong Yuan and Wang Yue are too far away, so naturally there is a little less awe.
"What is the result," Liu Xie asked with some amusement.
Even if Wei Zhong doesn't say it, he can probably guess some, if it is a battlefield duel, the outcome is really unpredictable, but if it is a spear competition, Ma Chao can surpass the spear skills that Tong Yuan has honed for decades "Defeated."
Wei Zhong saw Liu Xie laughing, and couldn't help laughing: "But that Ma Chao is also very tough, I heard that Ma Chao was defeated by Mr.
Tong Yuan thirteen times, the first time, he lost to Mr.
Tong Yuan in three moves, but the second time he was able to go through ten rounds under Mr.
Tong Yuan's gun, and then to this day, I heard that it took twenty-seven moves to fight with Mr.

Tong Yuan before Mr.
Tong Yuan picked off the spear." ” "It's rare."
When Liu Xie heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, although he was a little ignorant, but this stubbornness was lacking in many people, and it was difficult for most people to sum up their experience immediately after a failure, and then regroup the next day to fight again.
"There's something even weirder."
Wei Zhong said with a smile.
"Oh" Liu Xieqi said: "What, what's the matter?"
"Mr.
Tong Yuan saw that Ma Chao was extremely talented, and wanted to take him under his door, but Ma Chao refused."
Wei Zhong said with a smile.
Liu Xie was a little surprised at first, but then it was suddenly, looking at Ma Chao's experience, in addition to learning with his father when he was a child and training basic skills, he began to fight on the battlefield at a very young age, and killed the enemy on horseback, with an unyielding end in his bones.
"It's just that in this way, it's a little bitter for the Tong teacher, he doesn't take his muscles and bones as his ability, he fights like this, Ma Chao is young and strong, and he can eat, but the Tong Shi can't stand it, forget it, there is nothing left and right, follow me to the martial arts hall, you go and call Zilong."
"Whoa." t1706231537:
