The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 960

When Li Shimin returned to Daming Palace.

full of saying:
"Come here, help me get my jade seal!"

The eunuchs didn't understand why Li Shimin wanted Yuxi all of a sudden, but they didn't dare to neglect it.

Go directly to Yuxi.

Li Shimin thought for a while.

Then, the two contracts were stamped.

Then he said:

"Let Dai Zhou enter the palace to see me!"

"Yes!"

Because Shang Shusheng was set up by him on the next floor of his own, and Dai Zhou worked below him.

After a while, Dai Zhou came quickly.

As soon as Dai Zhou arrived.

He then said: "Send a copy of this contract to the boy in the group. Then wait there. He will send it to Daming Palace for [-] million taels. Don't leave. Got it?"

Dai Zhou was overjoyed.

This is a good thing!
He said: "Your Majesty is wise and really solved the problem. That's great, this one hundred million taels will at least allow the court to survive this difficult time. Wait for the tax to come up next year."

But how did you get the money?
Is there any agreement between the emperor and Li Yin?
So he asked again: "I don't know how Your Majesty got the money?"

Li Shimin is not happy.

Because he asked too much.

"You ask too many questions, go and do it!"

Then he lost the contract to Dai Zhou.

As soon as Dai Zhou received the contract, he didn't read it carefully.

Instead, he just stood there and didn't go away.

Seeing that he didn't leave, Li Shimin was very curious.

Didn't he speak clearly enough?
"What? Do you have anything else to do? If you don't have anything to do, hurry up, this matter can't be delayed. You need to get the money quickly!"

Maybe he was afraid that Li Yin would regret it then?

But everything is well written in black and white, so it is impossible to go back on your word.

In Li Yin's view, [-] million is a small amount of money for the group.

He didn't even pay attention to the interest of 1000 million taels a year.

There are many reasons why he helped Li Shimin.

Li Shimin may have thought of it himself.

Not only because I convinced Li Yin.

"I have something here, it's better to tell you."

"what's up?"

"About the Sixth Prince's matter."

"What's the matter with him? Tell me quickly! When did you become like this?"

Seeing what Dai Zhou said, it seems that the matter is not small.

"It's like this. The sixth prince is preparing to build a thermal power plant recently. At this time, Hechen is taking the land, and the official document is about to be approved. Regarding this matter, what does your majesty think?"

Li Shimin was puzzled at first.

"The thermal power plant? What is that?"

This is a new term, so Li Shimin naturally doesn't know it!But you can guess some, after all, the noun is somewhat similar to hydropower.

"According to the materials they provided, the power plant built on the reservoir is called a hydropower plant, because it uses water power to generate electricity.

And thermal power is to burn coal and other items to form thermal power to complete power generation... This is the principle of thermal power plants! "

Dai Zhou tried his best to introduce it simply.

Li Shimin was in a fog.

But from the literal point of view, it seems to be easy to understand.

"Didn't they already have a power plant? Why rebuild it? Why?"

Li Shimin asked puzzledly.

Dai Zhou then said:

"Because of the vigorous development of the group, the power supply has not been able to supply at this time, and it will enter the cold winter. The water on the river may freeze at any time, and the power it can bring is limited. When it freezes, Chang'an City There will also be a power outage. Because electricity is completely out of supply. So the sixth prince thought of a way to build a thermal power plant to generate electricity. This way, it will not be affected by the environment."

"Oh? What else?"

"The site selection and coal mining rights required for these thermal power plants have all been applied for. The imperial court will sell these mining rights and land values ​​to the group. That's all. Nothing."

At this time, Li Shimin suddenly had a new idea.

He said:
"Give them all these things! Don't sell anything!"

"What? To them?"

Dai Zhou thought that Li Shimin's conscience had found out.

He thought to himself, is it related to the [-] million taels?

But he still underestimated Li Shimin.

Li Shimin changed the subject.

"but……"

"But what? Tell me, Your Majesty!"

"But the imperial court invests in his thermal power plant. These things don't cost money, they can be exchanged for shares, and even the imperial court can invest money again!"

It turned out that Li Shimin wanted to own shares.

This Li Shimin is still very shrewd.

Since a power plant is to be built, there will be a steady stream of electricity generated.

Then this electricity is not cheap, and then there will be a steady stream of profits.

If you reinvest yourself, you can get more dividends at the end of the year.

Dai Zhou was puzzled.

Why do this?

It can be simpler, why make it so complicated?Moreover, there is no money now, and he still wants to invest. What is the reason?
So he said:
"But Your Majesty, our money is not enough! Our money is only enough..."

Li Shimin interrupted him.

"Didn't I just take [-] million taels? See how much you need, and invest in it directly. You can also invest all of it!"

"Then what about the imperial court!"

Li Shimin's approach makes people more and more incomprehensible!
The money has to be spent before it is received, so what should the court do?
"What should we do? Put some rare treasures that some people paid tribute to the court and sell them at a high price among the people.

Unimportant minerals such as some minerals, minerals that have no strategic significance for the court.It is the sale of mining rights.

And the land, which is for sale, is at your disposal.In addition, the imperial court also needs to reduce expenditures, and some unnecessary expenditures must be strictly controlled! "

Li Shimin seemed to have figured out something, but he refused what Li Yin had been asking him to do before.

But after he borrowed money, he went to invest in thermal power plants instead.

Because he seemed to think that this thermal power plant had indescribable benefits.

Take the hydropower plant as an example, as far as he knows, the annual profit may be in the hundreds of millions.

After he was so easy to operate and the thermal power plant developed vigorously, he might have earned tens of millions for nothing without spending a penny.

The benefits of this empty-handed white wolf are naturally to be done.

He took it for granted, thinking that he was giving the group some benefits, such as coal mining rights and unlimited supply of land. .
These things are worthless if they are not exchanged for money.

But if it is exchanged for shares to Li Yin, it is still worthwhile as a condition for negotiation.

"What if the sixth prince doesn't agree?" Dai Zhou asked.

"Don't worry, he will agree, you go to Tanglou now and convey what I mean. Do you understand?"

Dai Zhou was dumbfounded.

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Dai Zhou couldn't help it.

I had to agree.

So, he went to the tenement building.

I don't know what the result will be like?
