Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 852 Li Zhi's Chance

Li Zhi went out to visit those businessmen, thinking that if his father and Wei Hao didn't help, he would also need to get some businessmen to go to Chang'an, otherwise, Chang'an would be in trouble, and now many people are going to Luoyang come to work,
In addition, the people in Chang'an also have a lot of opinions on Jingzhao Mansion. They think that Jingzhao Mansion is incompetent and made Chang'an like this. Originally, the people in Chang'an had a lot of income from renting houses, but now, they all No more, many workers have already left, they have no choice but to hope that Jingzhao Mansion can change,

In the evening, Li Zhi came back and persuaded more than 20 speculative businessmen. They also hoped to be able to catch up with Li Zhi's line. In this way, they could make better money. Those businessmen all had abnormal purposes. In the past, but Li Zhi can't take care of so much now, and now he just needs businessmen to invest. In the evening, Li Zhi just returned to the restaurant, and was immediately summoned by Li Shimin.

"I have seen my father!" Li Zhi came in front of Li Shimin and cupped his hands inside.

"Well, sit down, have you eaten yet?" Li Shimin stared at Li Zhi and asked.

"I've eaten. I wanted to come here tomorrow morning to bid farewell to my father, and I'm going back to Chang'an!" Li Zhi said as he sat there.

"Well, it's good to go back, and sort out the affairs of Chang'an. The matter of Chang'an still needs to find the root cause. To solve the problem fundamentally, those nobles, you should warn them when it's time to warn them!" Li Shimin Said to Li Zhi.

"Yes, I know!" Li Zhi nodded and said.

"How many businessmen have you persuaded?" Li Shimin continued to ask.

"Ah, well, there are more than 20 of them, all of whom are good businessmen with high net worth, and they also have new workshops to build, and they happen to go to Chang'an. In this case, they can also drive the development of Chang'an!" Li Zhi listened. When Li Shimin asked this question, he knew that Li Shimin must have grasped the situation, so he immediately reported it.

"You have to be careful. I know a little about those businessmen. They are not serious businessmen. If they get into trouble in Chang'an, you need to be careful!" Li Shimin reminded Li Zhi.

"I know, father, they won't be able to jump around, but, father, don't you just watch Luoyang develop like this, but there is no movement in Chang'an. Now, [-]% of the businessmen in the country are in Luoyang.

It’s not a good thing. Look at Luoyang, the roads are so well built. Almost all of Luoyang’s territory has cement roads. Moreover, roads have also been built with several other big cities. In the future, Luoyang may become The center of the Tang Dynasty is now, you know, the country of the Tang Dynasty is Chang'an, not Luoyang! "Li Zhi sat there and said to Li Shimin.

"What do you want to say?" Li Shimin stared at Li Zhi and asked.

"What I want to say is that people in Luoyang only recognize Duke Xia, and no one knows about the royal family!" Li Zhi stared at Li Shimin and said seriously.

"Presumptuous!" Hearing this, Li Shimin stared at Li Zhi with a dark face and shouted. This sentence was very heartbreaking. Li Shimin did not expect that Li Zhi would be able to say such words.

"Father, what my son said is the truth, those businessmen only recognize Wei Hao!"

"Wei Hao is your brother-in-law!" Li Shimin scolded before Li Zhi finished speaking.

"I know, but this is not right. Those merchants should be under the control of our royal family, instead of obeying a prince!" Li Zhi continued to argue with Li Shimin.

"Why should you listen to the royal family, why not Shenyong, eh? You know, whether it is the workshop in Chang'an or the workshop in Luoyang, including the workshops created by the merchants behind, Wei Hao made it all by himself. Those businessmen trained by Wei Hao,

Without those merchants, how could the royal family and our Tang Dynasty have such a good life now?Do you know that without those businessmen, my Tang Dynasty would still want to expand its territory? "Li Shimin stared at Li Zhi's serious question.

"But those businessmen who need to obey the royal family should obey the arrangement of our court!" Li Zhi looked at Li Shimin and continued.

"Chaotang's arrangement, Chaotang arranges them to make money, do you want to control all businesses, control those businessmen?" Li Shimin stared at Li Zhi and continued to ask.

"Yes!"

"Do you know what the consequences of doing this are? A few years ago, your brother-in-law objected to such a thing, and your uncle did as you said. As a result, those workshops closed down completely, those businessmen fled, and taxes were collected. Sharp reduction!" Li Shimin said to Li Zhi, Li Zhi was stunned when he heard it, he didn't know such a thing, he was still young at that time.

"Slave, governing the country is not as simple as you think, merchants, we can't control it, we need to control it, just sell those materials that have a major impact on the court,

For example, steel, such as salt, and others, such as hydropower stations, such as weapon workshops, such as those workshops related to electricity, these are what we need to control, but for others, we should release them as they should, and they need to be done by businessmen. Otherwise, if the court does everything, will the people still have a way to survive?
The other thing is, do you think that those controlled by the court can make money?Wrong, if it is controlled by the court, maybe the court will have to lose money to enter.This is how the rice paper was before! "Li Shimin said to Li Zhi, Li Zhi heard it, sat there silently, he still believed in his own opinion, those businessmen should obey the court, and they will do whatever the court needs them to do.

"Okay, you should think about it more, don't say such things again, if those businessmen know what you think, they will not dare to follow you to Chang'an, they will escape from Chang'an!" Li Shimin said to Li Zhi , I was a little disappointed,
Originally, he also had hope for Li Zhi, and wanted to train Li Zhi to be Li Chengqian's backup. If Li Chengqian couldn't do it, then let Li Zhi go, but now he feels that Li Zhi can't go. Datang will be weakened, and many people will be killed by Li Zhi,
Li Shimin knew that Li Zhi's murderous intent was actually very serious.

From his style of doing things, it can be seen that he has done this to those cousins. It can be seen that he will not be soft on those nobles and vassal kings. What Li Shimin didn't want to see.

"Father, I know this, and I will seriously think about this issue!" Li Zhi said to Li Shimin.

"Well, you have to think carefully about it. You don't do things on your own. You don't have much experience now. In addition, your brother-in-law has done too many things for Datang. Those businessmen in Luoyang, your brother-in-law There is no control, and it is even said that they basically don't care about the affairs of Luoyang Mansion now, and Fang Yi has been managing them. Unless it is a big matter, otherwise your brother-in-law will not intervene. If you say your brother-in-law like this, your brother-in-law knows, I'll be disappointed!" Li Shimin said to Li Zhi.

"Yes, I know!" Li Zhi also nodded immediately.

"Okay, when I go back tomorrow, I will sort out the affairs of Chang'an!" Li Shimin said to Li Zhi.

"Yes, I'm leaving!" Li Zhi stood up immediately, and walked away to Li Shimin. After Li Zhi left, Li Shimin just sat there thinking,

Li Zhi really can't be reused. He treats Shen Yong like this. Once he is allowed to sit in this position, Shen Yong probably has no way out. The world will definitely be chaotic. As long as Li Zhi moves Wei Hao, the world will be destroyed. Even more people can see Li Zhi's character clearly, and it is estimated that no one will trust Li Zhi anymore.

"Hey!" Li Shimin sighed at this moment, at this moment, Wang De came in and said to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, Fang Yi is begging to see you!"

"At this time?" Li Shimin was taken aback when he heard it, and then said to Wang De: "Let's declare!"

"Yes!" Wang De went out immediately, and after a while, Fang Yi came straight over, saluted Li Shimin, and then said: "Your Majesty, I am here today for the people of Luoyang, and also for the officials below. Those who came here, they had a big opinion, so I had to come here, originally I wanted to go to Xia Guogong, but I guess Xia Guogong would not let me come here, so I dared to come here and report to His Majesty first!"

Li Shimin knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. It was probably the businessman Li Zhi was looking for. If Li Zhi did this, the officials in Luoyang would definitely be dissatisfied.

"Well, what's the matter?" Li Shimin looked at Fang Yi and asked directly.Then Fang Yizhi talked about the fact that those businessmen were poached by Li Zhi. Many workshops had already been negotiated, but Li Zhi intercepted it, and many projects that should have been implemented just disappeared. The officials below Very dissatisfied, even in some places, the land has been sorted out, just waiting for those workshops to move in, but now it's gone!

"Well, I know about this matter, it's King Jin's fault, now that he has negotiated with those merchants, what should we do?" Li Shimin stared at Fang Yi and asked straight away.

"Here, Your Majesty, please punish King Jin severely. It's not that the officials are bold. It's that our officials who are doing things below have done too many things but have no effect. Your Majesty, this will chill the hearts of the officials below. !" Fang Yi was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Shimin and continued.

"Well, then, you go to Shenyong and ask Shenyong to appease those officials!" Li Shimin thought about it, but he had no choice but to let Wei Hao do it.

"Here, let Shenyong go to appease those officials?" Fang Yi heard it, and couldn't understand it even more.
You know, those officials are also helping Wei Hao develop Luoyang. Now that Li Zhi is poaching a corner in Luoyang, Wei Hao must be dissatisfied. Now Wei Hao is actually asked to appease those officials. Can't pass.
