Mohist Tang

“If you want to be rich, build roads first,”

Li Shimin repeated this sentence, with a playful smile at the corner of his eyes.

Pang De nodded and said on the side: “Eighteen villages in the south of the city jointly sued Mohist Village for destroying the official road. Mohist Village and the Ch_ng’n county government agreed that every year Mohist Villages corvee will be contracted to the south of the city. Official road, Mohist Village then came out the secret of getting rich.”

Li Shimin sighed: “The world has been spying on Mohist Villages way to get rich, but never thought that even if you sit in Baoshan empty, if Inconvenient transportation, I am afraid it is similar to the sand.”

Li Shimin has a deep understanding of this. Since the founding of the country, Li Tang has always paid attention to road construction. One of the focuses of the annual military service is the repair of the official road.

Especially Chang’an City, which itself is an international metropolis, with convenient transportation and developed roads.

Pang De hesitated for a moment and continued: “According to Mohist Village, there is another sentence after this sentence.”

“Oh!” Li Shimin suddenly became interested. Asked curiously.

“If you want to be rich, you must first build roads and have more children and a variety of trees.” Pang De’s muffled thoughts still rhyme abnormally.

“Many children and many trees!” Li Shimin said this several times, laughing heartily involuntarily.

Pang De also involuntarily shook his head and laughed.

I have to say that Mo Duns poem is indeed very appropriate. Great Tang implements a field equalization system, which grants fields according to the average population. If you have more children, you can naturally grant more fields. It is the most important labor force, and the prosperity of servants often means that the labor force is sufficient and the family is rich.

As for many kinds of trees, since disposable chopsticks became popular in Great Tang, Chang’an City’s consumption of wood is a terrifying figure. The price of wood can be said to have been rising, and this era Timber transportation is difficult, and it is usually obtained from nearby. If there are a lot of trees around Chang’an City, it is indeed a lot of income.

“It does have several points of truth!” Li Shimin said with a smile, and other than that, a variety of trees is very appetizing for him. Great Tang is managing Yellow River, the most important of which is To Guangzhong trees, using this sentence to promote, perhaps it will be able to achieve amazing results.

“Lord Marquis Mo does have a Great Talent. He speaks a little, but in a simple sentence, he does his best to get rich.” Pang De said with a smile.

“This youngster is indeed talented, but they are all crooked talents. They show off his crooked poems all day long!” Li Shimin also laughed and scolded, which Scholar did not see the poems so sacred, only Mo Dun kept crooked poems.

“But I always feel that Mo Dun, the youngster, takes the initiative to build roads, and must make moths.” Li Shimin couldn’t help but feel a bad feeling.

Pang De frowned and said uncertainly: “That’s not the case! Mohist Family’s craftsmanship is unique in the world. You Majesty can rest assured that Mohist Village builds the road south of the city.”

“I hope so!” Li Shimin sighed.

In fact, Li Shimin is more than paying attention to Mo Duns road construction. In fact, many people in Changan City are paying attention. After all, Mohist Family Son is now an influential figure in Changan City. He took the initiative to request road construction. Everyone is not curious to know that the things that Mohist Family Son did at that time were extremely sensational every time, and they are still talking about it today.

Sure enough, just after the first day of road construction, the breaking news immediately spread throughout Chang’an City.

“Mohist Family Son plowed the official road.”

“Plowed!” Everyone who heard the news was dumbfounded. Until now, the official road has always been renovated. Some potholes were filled with soil and then slowly tamped, while Mohist Village plowed the entire official road without a word.

The young official in charge of supervising the road construction in Mohist Village was shocked and hurried back to the county government to report to Su Luosheng.

“What.” Su Luosheng was shocked when he heard the news.

It turns out that although the official road is dilapidated, repairs can certainly be used, but once Mohist Village plows the official road, how long will it take to reconsolidate the official road.

“Mohist Family Son!” Su Luosheng regretted in his heart. He knew that Mohist Family Son made amazing things every time, but he did not expect that it was him who was frightened this time.

He doesn’t know whether his decision to plot against Mohist Village to build the road is correct.

“From a small point of view, Mohist Family Son must be dissatisfied. He deliberately retaliated against the county deity. This time, Chengnan official road was completely destroyed!” The little official wanted to die. He was Supervisor, if Mohist Village destroys the official road, he must be implicated.

Su Luosheng shook his head and said, “What is the use of Mohist Family Son plowing the road? Could he still be in that kind of land? How he plows now, he will definitely give me inch by inch in the future Come back.”

Little official frowns saying: “Lord Su has forgotten the Ministry of Works schedule.”

Su Luosheng suddenly couldn’t sit still, and immediately put down his official duties and stood up: “Let’s go and take a look at the south of the city.”

South city gate, a piece of in a frenzy, the entire south city gate becomes a huge construction site.

Su Luosheng looked up and saw a crowd of Mohist Family Son driving a double-horse plough. They were built just outside the south city gate, leaving only the passage through two Carriages for the south. City gate in and out.

Citizens of Chang’an City who came after hearing the news came to watch the excitement, pointing fingers, clicking one’s tongue in wonder, such a peculiar road construction, everyone saw it for the first time.

Under the leadership of Mohist Family Son, Su Luosheng searched for a long time before finding Mo Dun who was commanding with a helmet.

“The city gate has the most vehicles, and the plow is half a foot deep within a mile south of the city.”

Mo Dun faced a Mohist Family Son brother instructed, and then looked up and looked towards. The Su County Magistrate.

Su Luosheng said with a bitter smile: “Lord Marquis Mo is such a big hand, it only needs to be repaired to repair the official road. Why should Lord Marquis Mo renovate it all.”

When he came to the official road, he discovered that Mo Dun was indeed not building a road, but rebuilding a new road.

Mo Dun shook his head, pointed to the other half of the potholes in the official road, and said: “The South City Road is very badly damaged. If all were tamped with soil, Mohist Village would not have that many manpower.”

Su Luosheng dumbfounded: “So Lord Marquis Mo plowed the official road. Wouldn’t it be harder to work harder.”

Mo Dun haha said with a smile: “Mohist Village has many horses, two horses and one The efficiency of ploughing is several times that of manpower.

When Mo Dun was really building roads, he discovered that if he really used manpower to plow the road, he might as well renovate it quickly.

Su Luosheng’s eyes He squinted: “Then Lord Marquis Mo knows that using a horse plow is indeed easy, but will he consolidate the road in the future? “

Mo Dun shook his head and said: “Mohist Family is most proud of our not our strength, but our tools. Mohist Village did not intend to use manpower to compact the road. Mohist Village plans to flatten it. “

Mo Dun pointed his finger at a huge steel cylindrical giant like a stone roller: “This is a new tool of the Mohist Family, a road roller specially prepared for road construction. This object is steel. The cast, the outer circle and the inner hollow, can be filled with sand to increase the weight when the road is pressed. The effect is comparable to that of rammed earth. However, eight horses running by horses are enough to build three miles a day. Mohist Village has prepared ten units for this purpose. “

Su Luosheng’s heart is shocked. This method of road construction is subversive, and the efficiency is indeed amazing, but the consumption is also amazing. Apart from the wealth of Mohist Village, I am afraid that no one can complete it.
