Li Shimin

Chapter 223 Your Majesty, Attention the Family!

As for Li Shimin, he also had a serious face!

If cement houses were built in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, if so many steel bars were stolen by those aristocratic families and cast into steel sword armor, wouldn't the Tang Dynasty be in trouble again?
Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and the others at the side also thought of this question in unison, their faces full of awe.

"Xuanba, what's the solution to this?" Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan.

"Your Majesty, supervisor!" Li Xuan replied.

"Supervision?"

Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others all looked puzzled.

"I will be the supervisor of the production of cement, and another construction department will be established to be responsible for building houses and cement roads!"

Li Xuan said slowly: "It can be named Datang City Construction Department and Datang Road Construction Department. These departments can be mostly veterans. These veterans are only responsible for supervising and managing house construction and road construction!"

"In this way, the Ministry of Industry manages as a whole, the general supervisor will produce, the urban construction department will build houses, and the road construction department will build roads. In the end, the money earned will be shared between the Ministry of Industry, the general supervisor, the urban construction department, and the road construction department!"

"Among them, the Ministry of Industry Supervision will be the supervisor and the Urban Construction Department and the Road Construction Department, and the Urban Construction Department and the Road Construction Department will also be able to supervise the quality of the cement that will be the supervisor and the steel quality of the Shaofu Supervisor!
With such mutual supervision, no one dared to reach out indiscriminately.However, the most important supervisors are those veterans.Only veterans know how important it is to leave a solid house and a smooth and solid road to their children and grandchildren.

Moreover, these veterans were all killed from the battlefield, and their bodies were so mutilated that it would be inconvenient for them to return to the fields to farm.Let him supervise the construction of roads and houses, not only to make money to support the family, but also to benefit future generations!

The most important thing is that as soon as he joins the army, he will be a person who will serve in the army for life. Those aristocratic families who want to make trouble on the houses and roads will have trouble in the hands of these veterans! "

"Is that so?"

After listening, Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and the others were all in deep thought.

"Your Majesty, what His Royal Highness Jin Wang said, my old Cheng feels very true!"

Cheng Zhijie said with a smile on his face, "Old soldier, there are many twelve guards, and all of them are strong!"

"Your Majesty, I also agree with this matter!"

The general supervisor, Sun Nian, also hurriedly cupped his hands.

As long as the cement is forged by their general supervisors, as for the construction of roads and houses that offend the aristocratic family, the general supervisors are not bad.Anyway, the palace houses of the nobles in the palace should be repaired and built by their generals!
"So, where did the craftsmen of Datang Road Construction Division and Housing Construction Division come from?" Li Shimin asked again.

"There are as many craftsmen as the General Supervisor and the Shaofu Supervisor, and there are also Si Nong Temple, so many craftsmen can be recruited, and those craftsmen can be recruited with labor labor! As long as the farming time is not delayed, they can be deployed!" Li Xuan said directly. .

"good!"

Li Shimin nodded slightly, and he basically agreed to Li Xuan's suggestion.

It's just that the aristocratic family is powerful and uses steel bars to build houses, not to mention the scarcity of steel bars, but the fact that it is easy to steal beams and replace columns makes him still have some concerns.

"Your Majesty, I have another proposal!" Li Xuan said again.

"Third brother, it's okay to say it!" Li Shimin said.

"Because the construction of roads and houses is very costly. Therefore, multiple forces can participate!"

"Multiple forces involved?"

Li Shimin was startled, and then his face was full of doubts, "What does Xuanba mean?"

"Your Majesty, although cement is cheap, steel bars and labor are expensive. According to the financial resources of the Tang treasury, at most a few counties near Chang'an can be completed, and the treasury will be exhausted!"

Li Xuan said, "Thus, Your Majesty can find a few more forces, such as the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, or aristocratic families with five surnames and seven families. How much money they invest, and how many shares they can occupy after joining the Datang Housing Construction Department and Road Construction Department .

However, no matter what, the imperial court must occupy more than [-]% of the Housing Construction Department and the Road Construction Department, so as to fully control the Housing Construction Department and the Road Construction Department.The appointment of the Housing Construction Department and the Road Construction Department should also be decided by the imperial court.

These participating families can only participate in the final share and share the money in proportion.However, on some unimportant matters, who has the most shares and who has the most say! "

"Isn't this selling an official title, and letting the family pay for it for nothing?"

After thinking for a moment, Li Shimin asked doubtfully again, "Those aristocratic families are not stupid, how could they pay to help Datang build concrete houses and concrete roads?"

"Your Majesty, it is precisely because none of them are idiots that they will actively participate!" Li Xuandao.

"Why?" Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and the others were all puzzled.

Li Xuan chuckled lightly and asked, "Your Majesty, after you saw concrete roads and concrete houses, did you also have the idea of ​​building such smooth and hard roads and durable houses for yourself?"

"It's natural!"

Li Shimin replied.

"Whoever has the largest share can build concrete roads and concrete houses for that family first!" Li Xuandao.

"This?"

After listening, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and others all stared at Li Xuan in a daze, their eyes lit up, how could they still do this?
"The reason why these aristocratic families can be so prosperous is because of the support of the people in their respective states and counties."

Li Xuan continued, "Whoever has the most influence can build cement roads for the county where the family is located first!"

"As long as you explain this matter to those aristocratic families, you won't believe it. Those aristocratic families will not rush to invest money in the housing and road construction department!"

At this moment, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and others looked at Li Xuan with fear.

"Xuanba, this move of yours is really ruthless! Hahaha, but it won my heart..."

Whoever spends more money, the state capital where the family is located can give priority to building houses and cement roads?
According to their understanding of those aristocratic families, these aristocratic families will inevitably transport money into Chang'an City crazily when they hear about this matter.

"In fact, building cement roads and concrete houses is of great benefit to everyone. Moreover, it is even more beneficial to those aristocratic families. However, everyone has selfishness, and the selfishness of the aristocratic family is even more important. Only one External stimuli can crush their selfishness!"

"Your Majesty, these aristocratic families have accumulated for at least a hundred years. As long as half of the family's money can be used, the important roads in the Tang Dynasty can be built!

In this way, as long as the road is built, it will definitely be profitable, and those merchants will also actively go to sell goods, so that they can receive more business taxes.

If there are more merchants, the lives of the people will definitely improve, and they can even make money slowly, and the merchants will be more active, so a virtuous circle will be formed, the court will become richer, and the people will also become richer...

After the completion of the construction, the merchants of these aristocratic families also benefited.Moreover, in the end, these aristocratic families can still share the business tax money earned, so for these aristocratic families, it is also a business that can stabilize their family foundation! "

After listening, Li Shimin and the others were all in deep thought.

Everyone here is not a fool, on the contrary, they are all the smartest people in Datang.

Since I understand what Li Xuan said, I can also imagine how beneficial it will be to Datang if what Li Xuan said is true.

For those aristocratic families, how much benefit can it have.

After a while, Li Shimin sighed softly: "It doesn't take half, as long as each family contributes [-]%, all the roads and houses in the Tang Dynasty can be built once!"
