Chapter 208 The Thoughts Of Xiao Qiao
"And with enough money and food in your hands, Your Majesty can afford to support more troops.
"Speaking of the army, Construction Du Yu said that although our Tang Dynasty's military system was very good at the beginning, it was not suitable for a strong country in the Late Stage."
"It is suggested that after we have sufficient food in the future, we must professionalize our soldiers."
"The advantage of the government army system is that the country can use less money and food to support a large number of soldiers.
"But the shortcomings are also obvious. Soldiers rely on local money and food for support, which will cause the local government to essentially control these troops."
"He said that more than a hundred years later, the Tang Dynasty will decline and perish. This system also has a big reason."
"It caused the Jiedu envoys from all sides of the Tang Dynasty to support their own troops and separate themselves from one side."
"In the end, two Jiedu envoys named Shi Siming and An Lushan rose up in rebellion, ending the prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty."
Hearing this, Li Shimin was shocked. He slapped the table and said, "This is unreasonable!"
"These aristocratic families are really hateful!"
Queen Changsun said: "There is nothing we can do about it, because if the army wants to obtain enough money and food, it must be controlled by these Jiedushi and the noble families."
"So Du Yu said that if we promote the planting of rice and millet, it will only be cheaper for those from aristocratic families.
"When I think about it carefully, what he said makes sense!"
"If this kind of thing is only in your Majesty's hands now, we can accumulate enough money and food to support millions of people and horses within two or three years.
"And these millions of troops don't have to serve as government soldiers. They are completely professional troops. They will only obey your Majesty's orders."
"At that time, who dares to disobey His Majesty's orders?"
"Du Yu told me that they had a saying at that time that political power comes from the barrel of a gun.
"The barrels of guns were the weapons and firearms used in their time. It means that only with enough military power can we stabilize the political power in our hands."
"Your Majesty can only take the second step of reform if he has sufficient military power."
"The second step, Du Yu said, is called sharing the land."
"This is what a dynasty will do a thousand years later.
"This method can prevent farmers from being exploited too much."
"The so-called taxation means that taxes are no longer collected on a per-capita basis, but on a land-based basis."
"You will be taxed as much as you have the land in your hands. To put it simply, those powerful nobles, landlords and rich peasants have more land in their hands, so they have to pay more taxes.
"Instead of collecting taxes like now."
"Obviously those landowners own tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, yet they pay less taxes than farmers. Does Your Majesty think this is reasonable?"
"The gods in the sky use lamps like this. Does it light up? Is it magical?"
"There seems to be something wrong with this shot. The light and shadow effects are not good, and some parts are not clear. I have to take another shot.
But she was very satisfied with her photos and thought to herself: "Send it to my stinky brother tomorrow."
Da Qiao blushed slightly on the side, and then said: "Du Lang likes to watch, so what's wrong with letting him watch?"
After a while, her beautiful body was laid out under the moonlight, and then the Queen began to take selfies in various poses.
After a long time, Queen Changsun stood up and left, leaving Li Shimin alone to think quietly.
"I really want to have a long talk with him one day and ask him for advice on how to govern the country."
Empress Changsun was walking in the corridor of the palace. The maid in front of her was carrying two lanterns with electric lights, illuminating the surroundings with daylight.
Empress Changsun couldn't help but become interested and asked the maids and eunuchs to retreat outside the wall.
Xiao Qiao snorted and said, "That big pervert is really bad."
When an electric light and an electric fan were installed in his father's room, Mr. Qiao was even more surprised. He felt so miraculous that he called out "Divine Weapon!"
Queen Changsun shook her head and said: "It's a pity that he is from another world and cannot come to us."
When Qiao Gong heard this, he smiled and said: "My daughter still loves me! But you have to be careful when using such a magical thing in the future, and don't let others know.
Da Qiao also smiled and said: "Dad, we also have an electric light here. We will install it in your room soon."
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but admire: "That makes sense!"
But the Empress of the Tang Dynasty is definitely not interested in winning awards.
Then Empress Changsun told Li Shimin a lot of things, which made Li Shimin marvel.
"At that time, those powerful nobles will be unable to resist and will obediently accept this policy."
Then the Empress of the Tang Dynasty began to undress.
Xiao Qiao smiled proudly and said: "This is a gift given to us by the gods in the sky, and it is called an electric light.
This photo is really worthy of the word body art.
This made Li Shimin also feel a little disappointed: "Yes, what a pity!"
"Because to govern this world, we have to rely on these powerful families, so Your Majesty does not dare to touch them.
"Similarly, only if Your Majesty has enough troops in his hands, and they can all have enough to eat and work hard for Your Majesty, will they join His Majesty in fighting these powerful landlords.
If I participate in a photography exhibition, I will definitely win the first prize.
Looking at the surrounding scenery is very beautiful, the moonlight shines brightly and artistically.
Xiao Qiao returned to her boudoir. The two sisters were lying on the same bed. They couldn't help but chat about Du Yu.
"This Du Yu is really a genius in governing the world!"
The photos taken are truly artistic and elegant.
Their father, Mr. Qiao, was shocked when he saw it: "Daughter, where did you get this magical thing?"
When Xiao Qiao heard this, he looked at his sister and said, "Sister, you don't like that big pervert, do you?"
"Only when Your Majesty has enough money and food, and His Majesty's food can feed the people all over the world, then the people all over the world will follow His Majesty to deal with these wealthy and powerful people."
“It’s really shameful that we were asked to dance live in the video!”
"Unreasonable! But this situation has never been changed before. Why?"
In another time and space, Xiao Qiao also started to use electric lights at night, and the light in the boudoir was as bright as day.
