The king, who has just emerged from the cabinet, has a pretty strong family background.

After all, it is the highest-level title in the Tang Dynasty, second only to the three in the imperial palace in the entire country, so the rewards for leaving the imperial court are naturally extremely generous.

The most important thing is, of course, food and land.

Li Yuanjia's food estate is actually 700 households, which means that as long as Li Yuanjia lives, the annual taxes of these 700 households in the Tang Dynasty will be used to support him! And the 10,000 acres of Yongye Field and 1,200 acres

It is the most fertile land in Luzhou.

Moreover, these numbers were only what Datang regulations had to give him.

In fact, as one of Li Yuan's most beloved sons, his mother-in-law Yuwen Zhaoyi once hoped to become the queen. Naturally, Li Yuanjia will not only have these things on the surface when he comes out of the cabinet. Especially since the fourth year of Zhenguan, the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Yuan has

After relaxing, he also became tolerant towards his brothers. So before Li Yuanjia arrived in Luzhou, his uncle Yu Wenshiji secretly bought him more than 20,000 acres of farmland and three villages!

Just these lands are enough to make Li Yuanjia a rich man.

In addition to this, there are also the regular money that Li Yuanjia saved before, as well as the copper coins, gold cakes, various treasures and silk cloth that the three people above gave him before leaving. It is also a very huge amount. Not to mention that the court will also give gifts every year.

To give him as a governor a large salary, of course, is based on his title as a prince and the same level as a first-grade official, seven hundred shi of food per year, as well as the expenses of feeding dozens of servants, as well as various miscellaneous subsidies...

"No matter how you calculate it, my brother is also a rich man now!"

After listening to Han Shan explain it to him in detail, Li Yuanjia felt secretly happy.

Although he knew that as the first generation prince of the Tang Dynasty, it was natural for him to be rich, but when Li Yuanjia arrived in Luzhou ten days later and realized that he had begun to truly independently own these financial rights, the feeling in his heart was completely different.

!

And after understanding his family background and the prices of goods in this era, Li Yuanjia also sighed secretly: "No wonder that guy Li Yuanying can build three Tengwang Pavilions and so many pavilions and palaces! Don't say that guy will be in the local area in the future.

He must have imposed excessive taxes, and his family wealth alone must be extremely rich, right?"

It's funny to say that "Li Yuanjia" in his previous life didn't know him, but his younger brother Li Yuanying remembered it clearly. After all, Li Yuanjia can still recite the famous preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion in later generations...

…

Taking the drawings drawn by Li Yuanjia, Han Shan went to find a blacksmith to make an iron pot.

According to the king's request, it is not easy to make this iron pot. In addition to being round, the most important thing is that it must be as thin as possible and as uniform in thickness as possible! Anyway, based on Han Shan's understanding of the blacksmiths' skills, he wants to make it

It's not that easy to get out.

After Han Shan left, Li Yuanjia sat there for a while and felt bored, so he started wandering around in his study.

Among the entire Luzhou government offices, this is the largest room and also has the best sunlight, ventilation and other conditions.

The whole room is filled with bookshelves, and the bookshelves are also filled with all kinds of books, and there are even many bamboo slips that look very ancient.

The former Xiao Wang was a book-loving guy.

So just before he traveled through time, this kid's book collection had already broken through three thousand volumes! You know, he was still a twelve-year-old child at that time. And after his soul changed to a different person, he came here in order not to

To make others suspicious, and secondly for his own various purposes, Li Yuanjia continued to expand his collection, and even more "intensified" it. It took three years to push the collection to more than 10,000 volumes!

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, this was quite an astonishing number.

You must know that books these days are basically copied by hand, or woodblock printing appeared in the Sui Dynasty, but is still very rare now. The cost can be said to be so high that ordinary people have to think twice about buying a book.

.For ordinary wealthy people or ordinary officials, having a dozen or dozens of books at home is enough to be proud of. If there are hundreds or thousands of books, it can even be called "a large collection of books."

reputation.

One can imagine what Li Yuanjia's collection of thousands of books means.

"It's just...it sounds awesome, but it's actually very loose!"

After walking around in his huge study room, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but shake his head, feeling a little disappointed. This is not the era of the explosion of knowledge in later generations. A book can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of words.

It takes several days to finish reading a book. These days, due to the conciseness of classical Chinese and the small amount of knowledge, a book with more than 10,000 words is often considered a "masterpiece", and most of them are completed with only a few thousand words.

Many of the books collected by Li Yuanjia are so-called inscriptions and monuments, and are copies of books, some of which only have a few hundred words.

Therefore, although there are many books, the amount of information is pitifully small.

and……

"There's nothing interesting about photographic memory or anything like that!"

Thinking of the benefits he had when he traveled back in time, the so-called golden fingers, Li Yuanjia felt doubly painful: There were originally very few entertainments in this era, and in addition, because of the special period, he had to live a low-key life, so he thought he could spend more time by reading.

Time, I didn’t expect that I would get such a golden finger when I traveled through time. How could I survive?

How can I read an ancient book with tens of thousands of words in one day?

I finally asked my servants to collect hundreds of so-called new books, but the total was only a hundred thousand words. It took me two or three days to read them thoroughly and understand them all. Who can understand this kind of pain?

"Tsk, tsk, I'm afraid I'm the only time traveler who would rather not have a golden finger, right?"

After walking around the room and not finding a book that he could read, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but sigh and shook his head in confusion. It is indeed possible to review old books, but if you pick up a book

After that, the content inside came to mind word for word, and where could there be any pleasure in reading?

But after going around in a circle, Li Yuanjia stopped in front of the last row of bookshelves.

This row of bookshelves is also filled with books.

However, compared with other bookshelves, the books on this row of bookshelves are a bit strange. They all seem to be very new books. They are not at all like the other books that are old and new. Some of them have even been moth-eaten and soaked in water.

Walking from one end of the bookshelf to the other, Li Yuanjia's right index finger gently slid across the spines of a row of books, with an indifferent look on his face. Then when he was halfway there, he suddenly stopped and stepped back.

After a while, the index finger of my right hand also stopped on a book that was one finger thick.

I pulled it out and saw that the title of the book was "Travel Notes to Tianzhu".

Taking the book and walking back to the low table with the best sunshine, Li Yuanjia bent his knees and sat down.

Putting "Travel to Tianzhu" on the low table, Li Yuanjia began to grind the ink patiently while turning over the pages with his left hand. He just turned over page by page, and when Li Yuanjia turned over more than ten pages, he suddenly stopped.
Chapter completed!
