"Your Majesty, this year, not only are the disasters in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, but also in the Turks and other places. As early as the beginning of the year, many cattle and sheep were frozen to death in the Turks and other places, and the cattle and sheep they raised were not enough for their money to eat.

Nowadays, there are not many cattle and sheep left in the Turks and other places, and in addition, the battle has led to a shortage of cattle and sheep.

Our Tang Dynasty also needs to build cities and set up Zhechong Mansion in the Turks and other places. There are millions of Tang survivors there, so there will naturally be a huge gap in food!"

Fang Xuanling immediately bowed and explained.

"What solutions can the Secretariat have in your solution?"

Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others and asked. In fact, Li Shimin also understood these principles, but he was so upset that he couldn't do it.

"Your Majesty forgives the crime. I believe that for the present plan, I need to first satisfy the food and grass of the five northern expedition troops. As for the remaining Turkic sacred slaughter and the Tang survivors, I can only slaughter some sheep to fill the hunger, and then start mobilizing grain from Jiangnan and other places to Lingzhou."

Fang Xuanling said slowly.

On the side, Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui also agreed with each other.

"Your Majesty, cement roads have been laid from Chang'an to Luoyang now, and the speed of transporting food is at least twice as fast as before."

"But it will take at least one month to recruit food from the south. In this way, can the millions of Tang dynasties in Lingzhou and other places wait?"

Li Shimin said in a little puzzled manner.

“This?”

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others all looked helpless.

"Your Majesty, we have no choice but to increase grain from Guanzhong and Lingzhou. As for those Turkic monks and the Tang survivors, since they can live in Turkic places for so long, they must have their way of survival."

Hearing this, Li Shimin sighed softly, and a feeling of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

This method is indeed the best method at present.

"Your Majesty, Cheng Duanbo, the Qingzhou Zhechong Prefecture, sent an urgent report!"

At this time, Li Wei walked in quickly with a memorial in hand.

"Take it to me." Li Shimin said.

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Li Wei hurriedly sent the memorial over.

Li Shimin quickly unfolded it and started to look at it.

On the side, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others also looked anxious and looked closely at the memorial in Li Shimin's hand.

They all knew about Cheng Duanbo being sent to Qingzhou to serve as the Zhechong Commander.

Suddenly, Li Shimin was overjoyed and clapped his hands excitedly.

"Okay, very good!"

"I dare to ask Your Majesty, but what kind of great joy happened in Qingzhou?"

Changsun Wuji and others felt relieved, but they still asked curiously.

"Xuanba took two giant ships from Zhechong Prefecture in Qingzhou to fish in fishing. He just walked around the sea and easily caught thousands of stones of giant fish!"

"Your Majesty, is it really a thousand stone?"

Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others subconsciously widened their eyes, their faces were shocked, and they hurriedly asked Li Shimin.

"The servant Cheng Duan, the commander of the commander of the Qingzhou Zhechong, will definitely not deceive me in this matter!"

Li Shimin said with a look of joy.

At the same time, when I remembered something, I looked up at Li Wei beside me.

"So quickly find the Prince of Hejian!"

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Li Wei quickly bowed his hand and ran out quickly.

"Auxiliary Machinery, Xuanling, two large ships can catch sea fish with thousands of stones in less than an hour. In that day, two giant ships can catch sea fish with at least six thousand stones.

And if four giant ships of Canghuo can catch at least tens of thousands of stones of sea fish in a day!”

Li Shimin handed the memorial to Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others, and said happily.

"Your Majesty is wise. If you catch fish in the sea, as Cheng Duanbo said, this matter will definitely be a blessing for our Tang Dynasty!"

Du Ruhui also said with a look of joy.

"Xuanling, what do you think about this?" Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling again.

"When you are young, I have also gone to the beach with some playmates. The sea fish in the sea are relatively large in size and the meat is very delicious.

Moreover, I heard from the fishermen in the sea that there are indeed many fish in the sea. If you are lucky and encounter a group of fish, thousands of big fish will walk in the sea in a dense manner. If you go through a net, you will definitely be thousands of big fish with thousands of stones!”

Fang Xuanling is from Linzi, Qizhou, and is only about one hundred miles away from Qingzhou.

Therefore, when I was a child, I often went to the beach to watch fishing with some playmates who were the second generation of officials.

"In this way, what Cheng Duanbo said is indeed feasible!"

Li Shimin said slowly.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, if you can really fish like this, then my shortage of food in the Tang Dynasty will greatly alleviate!"

Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others bowed their hands with joy on their faces.

After hearing this, Li Shimin also looked happy.

Soon, Li Xiaogong walked in from outside the palace with a look of eagerness.

"My minister Li Xiaogong meets Your Majesty!"

"Hurry and don't give me a gift!"

Li Shimin said happily.

Seeing this, Li Xiaogong's expression relaxed. It seemed that he was not the bastard of his own who caused trouble in Qingzhou.

"I dare to ask Your Majesty, what big thing happened to the general who was so anxious?"

"Cheng Duanbo, the commander of the commander of the Zhechong in Qingzhou, sent a memorial, you can see!"

Li Shimin handed the memorial to Li Xiaogong and said with a chuckling.

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Li Xiaogong did not continue to be polite about this, and quickly took the memorial and started reading it.

"A thousand stone big fish?"

After reading it, Li Xiaogong subconsciously exclaimed.

Then, he bowed to Li Shimin with a happy look on his face, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, there are so many big fish in the sea. As long as my Tang Dynasty dispatches dozens of big ships, I can catch hundreds of thousands of stones of big fish every day. My Tang Dynasty will never lack food again!"

"Xiao Gong also thinks there is great potential for this matter?"

Li Shimin asked with anticipation.

"When you go back to your Majesty, the sea is vast and boundless, and there are indeed many sea fishes in it. However, the sea is too far away from the hinterland of our Tang Dynasty. Those sea fish will die if they leave the water, and it is difficult to transport them back to Guanzhong and Guannei!"

After thinking for a while, a hint of disgrace flashed through Li Xiaogong's face.

"well!"

After hearing this, Li Shimin was disappointed again, "What a pity that there are so many big fish!"

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince's Memorial, the King of Jin's Memorial!"

At this time, Li Wei walked in with two memorials in his hand and looked strange.

"Gao Ming and Xuan Ba?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin was also surprised.

However, I still hurriedly ended the memorial and started reading it.

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others also looked at the two memorials in Li Shimin's hands with curiosity.

Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian's memorial and hurriedly looked over.

As for Li Xuan’s memorial, Li Shimin read it very seriously.

After a long time, he handed Li Xuan’s memorial to Fang Xuanling, Li Xiaogong and others with a happy expression.

"What Gao Ming and Xuan Ba ​​say is exactly the same as Cheng Duanbo. However, in Xuan Ba's memorial, there are two ways to transport those sea fish back to Chang'an City and make those sea fish as fresh as when they go out to sea!"

"There is such a magical technique?"

Fang Xuanling, Li Xiaogong and others flashed a little surprise on their faces, and they quickly looked at them with curiosity.

"Frozen the big fish with ice cubes so that the sea fish can keep fresh for one month and not smelly!"

"Marinate the cleaned sea fish with coarse salt, so that after drying, it will be crispy and delicious, nutritious, and light and easy to carry!"

After watching it, Li Xiaogong, Fang Xuanling and others were all excited.
