In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan beat Li Shimin at the beginning

Chapter 72 Find a way to make the common people make money
Li Chengqian asked in confusion: "Why is this happening? Why did it become a good thing when we gave the money away?"

Li Ke said: "This is a simple economics. We are the royal family, not those aristocratic families.

Therefore, we must make the people rich so that the country can be more stable. "

Li Chengqian's eyes became brighter, and he asked, "So, let's find a way to make them make money?"

Li Ke said: "That's right. Big brother is really smart, and he knows everything. People can't keep their money, and they will spend it. As long as they spend it, the economy will come alive."

Once the economy is active, the people will become richer and richer, and trade will become more prosperous and developed, forming a virtuous circle.

Only when the people get rich can the emperor become more and more comfortable. "

Li Shimin immediately made a decision and said: "Okay, just do what Ke'er said! This time we will not conscript corvee."

Li Ke said: "Father, what I mean is that it's not that we don't enlist corvee this time, but that we want to abolish this bad system.

In the future, neither the royal family nor officials will be allowed to conscript corvee.Only in this way can our country become prosperous and strong. "

"His..."

Li Shimin had a headache again.

It's okay not to collect corvee once, but this time with so much money, Li Shimin can enforce it.

But it would be a bit troublesome to abolish this system.Can't pass through the court.

Because, the collection of corvee is not only the power of the court.

As long as it is a project under the banner of serving the country and the people, no matter whether it is an official or a family, it can be done with corvee.

This concerns the interests of too many people. If you want to abolish this system, who will agree?

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "This matter is a bit difficult, Ke'er, you have created another problem for me."

Li Ke said: "Actually, this matter is not difficult at all, as long as you forcefully issue an imperial decree and announce it to the public, our royal family will no longer be subject to corvee.

As long as our royal family stands up and leads by example, those officials and those aristocratic families will not dare to confront them.They can't bear the verbal criticism of the people. "

Li Shimin's glasses lit up: "Well, it's a good way. Ke'er, it seems that you are not stupid. You have a set of methods to manipulate people's hearts."

Li Ke said: "I'm not stupid, I'm just stupid."

"Ugh……"

Li Shimin sighed a long time and said: "I have the money to build the reservoir, but the court is still poor! I am also poor!"

Li Ke said: "Father, just bear with it for a few days, and you will have money after a few days. Brother has already built a salt factory on Dongshan Mountain. I believe that salt will come out in two days. Money spent."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he asked Li Chengqian, "Prince, how is the salt factory doing?"

Li Chengqian quickly said: "Father, don't worry, I have handed over this matter to Cheng Chumo, and the technology has also been handed over to him. I believe that in two days, there will be salt."

Cheng Chumo is honest and not so treacherous.

Li Chengqian also chose for a long time before he chose to entrust this matter to him.

If he wanted to pass on the secret recipe, then Li Chengqian had no choice but to do everything himself!

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Okay, Prince, you have a good eye for choosing candidates. Haha..."

Li Shimin laughed, very happy.For Cheng Yaojin's family, he is also very relieved.

As long as Cheng Yaojin doesn't force Cheng Chumo to take out the secret recipe, no one can get the secret recipe from Cheng Chumo.

Regarding Cheng Yaojin's behavior, Li Shimin is completely at ease.

At this time, Li Chengqian said: "Father, there is another matter that I want to tell you, it is about the fourth brother..."

Before Li Chengqian finished speaking, Li Ke quickly interrupted him and said, "Father, Empress, we are taking our leave."

As he spoke, he dragged Li Chengqian, who was in a daze, and ran away.

Li Shimin's laughter came from behind him.

Li Chengqian was pulled out by him, and asked in confusion: "Third brother, what's the matter with you? I haven't said anything about the fourth brother? Why did you force me out? We promised the fourth brother .”

Li Ke said: "Look, look, you always say I'm stupid, but I didn't expect you to be even more stupid. Father is rarely free for a few days. After spending time with mother, why do you tell him this? You want to be whipped by father , or do you want to be whipped by the queen?"

"This……"

Li Chengqian was dumbfounded.

Come to think of it, it seems to be the case.

It's rare for people to be free for two days, and they get tired of staying together.You're fine, you're going to tear down the stage when you come up, isn't it inviting people to hate you?What is it if it’s not looking for draws?

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian broke into cold sweat.

"Third brother, thank you for saving me. However, we seem to have promised fourth brother that it would be a bad idea not to help him, right?"

Li Ke said: "It depends on the time and the occasion! Let's find another chance! Don't be afraid that there will be no chance to say it."

The two of them spoke lightly here, but Li Tai was miserable.

He felt that his life was in darkness and he could not see the light.

Every day, he either corrected the memorial or was scolded by Wei Zheng.

This is not the point, the point is that when he went to court, he felt too uncomfortable.

None of the ministers regarded him as a human being.They beat him to pieces one by one!

He felt that he was not like the emperor, but rather like a child who made a mistake and was dragged up to criticize him.

But he knew in his heart that neither Li Shimin nor Li Ke could be blamed for this.

They did help him and helped him to this position.

It's just that he is not capable enough to afford this big beam.

So, all day long, he wanted to end this nightmare as soon as possible.Fortunately, Li Chengqian and Li Ke agreed to help him.

However, he waited and waited, but couldn't wait for the good news.

On Dongshan.

Specifically, it is on the poisonous salt mountain in Li Ke's land.

Li Ke came with Xue Rengui and his Eighteen Horsemen of the Tang Dynasty on horseback.

What?You mean General Yuchi Baolin?I'm sorry, I was sent to train by Li Ke.

He brought Yuchi Baolin here just to let Xue Rengui be free to be his bodyguard.

Oops, His Highness the King of Shu is here.

When Cheng Chumo received the news, he immediately ran over.

"Oh, Your Highness the King of Shu, why are you here?"

Li Ke said: "It's nothing, just come and have a look. Tell me! Can the salt be produced normally within two days?"

Cheng Chumo immediately said: "His Royal Highness Shu, don't worry! It won't take two days, it can be done today, and it can be produced normally tomorrow."

Li Ke jumped off the horse and walked over to check their equipment.

No problem, everything was done according to what he said at the time.In fact, there is no high-end black technology.

It is to break those salt blocks into pieces, and then put them into a pot to boil, and after getting out the salt, filter them to filter out those toxic substances, that's all.
