Li Shimin

Chapter 789 You can think about what you want to do
"Since you all want to eat hot pot again, those nobles of the aristocratic families are a group of people who don't remember to eat. I believe that after a few days, they will want to eat hot pot even more!"

Li Xuan said, "Besides, even if there are only [-]% of the diners in the hot pot shop every day, the hot pot shop is still making money!"

"Your Majesty Yingming!"

Li Chang hurriedly cupped his hands in admiration.

Then, thinking of the news sent by the shopkeepers of those six shops, Li Chang's face was full of joy again.

"Report to Your Majesty, the income of those six shops yesterday has been calculated!"

"Oh?"

Curiosity flashed in Li Xuan's eyes, and he asked, "How many diners went to eat yesterday, and how much money did they earn?"

Speaking of this, Li Chang suddenly became excited.

"My lord, yesterday, there were more than 800 tables of diners in the six hot pot restaurants, and a total of 120 yuan was collected! Excluding the ingredients and other costs, I can earn [-] yuan!"

"The money earned in just one day is already equivalent to the money earned by some shops in a month!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, "Wait for a few more days, after the dignitaries of these aristocratic families recover, they will go to the hot pot shop again. Besides, haven't many people already made appointments to continue treating guests?
They pay the most attention to promises, how can they break their promises?

After they have eaten two or three times, their stomachs will adapt to the hotness of the hot pot, and they will not have such abdominal pain, and they will go directly to Gong's room after eating.

By then, they will become regular customers of the hot pot shop! "

"Your Majesty Yingming!"

Li Chang was full of admiration.

Li Xuan nodded slowly, and then continued to ask: "Today is already the fifth day, what are those scholars doing now?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, half of the people are reading in the library, some of them went to the field, and a few went to the pig pen and chicken pen, and some went to the forge!"

Thinking of the situation of those scholars, Li Chang couldn't help being a little weird.

"Very good!"

Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction, "Call them over later, it's time to talk about their future work in Lijiazhuang!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang's eyes flashed, and he quickly responded.

at the same time.

In Chang'an City, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others were also affected by the hot pot shop.

"Earn [-] guan in a day, wouldn't it be possible to earn [-] guan in a month?"

Li Shimin looked at the bills in his hand with a happy face, and checked them one by one.

Seeing this, the corners of Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and the others could not help but twitch slightly.

Your Majesty is becoming more and more obsessed with money!

"Your Majesty, there seem to be only half of the diners today!"

"That can also earn [-] coins!"

Li Shimin said.

"Your Majesty is wise, no matter what, the hot pot restaurant can earn seventy to eighty thousand yuan within a month!"

Changsun Wuji slowly cupped his hands in salute.

"Very good!"

Li Shimin looked satisfied.

Afterwards, thinking of something, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other and handed each other over again.

"Your Majesty, I have something to do!"

"Ok?"

It was the first time in a private discussion that Li Shimin couldn't help being a little surprised to see Fang Xuanling's seriousness.

"Xuanling, but it's okay to say!"

After Fang Xuanling thought for a while, he said slowly.

"Your Majesty, in the past few years, our Tang Dynasty has been fighting everywhere every year. It is a trivial matter that some fields are barren, because my Tang king's army is invincible, and the lack of food in the country can be filled from small countries such as Linyi, Wa, and Goguryeo.

However, as my Great Tang proclaimed the king and founded the country, those aristocratic families took away a large number of young and strong, and the young and strong in my Great Tang have dropped by [-]% in the past two years.

But this time, Tubo has almost been captured by His Highness the Crown Prince. If Tubo is auctioned off to those nobles of the family again, tens of thousands of young and middle-aged people will inevitably be taken away again. In this way, the land cultivated by my Tang Dynasty every year will be sharpened again. reduce.

The most influential thing is that a large number of young and middle-aged people went to seal the country with those aristocratic families. If my Tang Dynasty wants to restore the population of the pre-Sui Dynasty, it will inevitably be slow for many years. "

"There is still this matter? Why didn't the officials of the various states report to me?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help being shocked.

"Your Majesty, my Tang Dynasty has a vast territory, and each family occupies a state or a county. These families themselves have thousands of servants and farmers, and they take away thousands of people in a state or a few counties. People, it doesn't have much impact on those states and counties.

Therefore, many state and county officials don't care much about it.However, when the number of young and middle-aged men taken away by these aristocratic families gathers here, it will be an astonishing number! "

Fang Xuanling said slowly.

After a moment of silence, Li Shimin sighed, "What good plan do you have?"

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling smiled wryly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for your incompetence. If you don't grant those aristocratic families kings and founding states, the imperial court will have no money, acres, and iron ore income. Even the imperial court will have to take in more soldiers and money." Officials.

And if those aristocratic families are allowed to establish kings and establish a country, they will inevitably take away a large number of young and strong, so that they can defend the country!
In this matter, the minister has no good plan! "

"In this way, no matter what, if we want to defend the territory we have conquered, we, the Tang Dynasty, will have to send a large number of young men!"

Li Shimin also looked helpless.

"Exactly!"

Fang Xuanling nodded slowly.

"Auxiliary machine, Keming, what can you two do?"

Li Shimin looked at Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui at the side again.

"Your Majesty's forgiveness..."

Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui were ashamed.

……

Lijiazhuang.

in a classroom.

Li Xuanduan sat at the top, and there were exactly 52 tables below. Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and other scholars sat one by one.

Sitting in this kind of spacious and bright school for the first time, all the scholars couldn't help but look strange.

"It has been five days since you came to the village. You have seen all the things in the village. Now, can you tell me what you like to do?
Of course, if you want to continue to participate in the spring test, the king will not stop you, just leave Lijiazhuang, so you have nothing to do with me! "

Hearing this, the scholars who originally had some small ideas in their hearts suddenly became firm. Lijiazhuang, a place of Taoyuan, they only came in through shit luck, and they would not leave unless they were stupid.

"Your Majesty Mingjian, as long as your Majesty does not drive me away, I will never leave Lijiazhuang!"

"Exactly, Great Wang Mingjian, all the things in Lijiazhuang are so novel, enough to make me study for a lifetime!"

"..."

"Since that's the case, tell me, what do you want to do in Li's Manor?"

Li Xuan smiled lightly and asked again.

"This……"

In an instant, several scholars' expressions flickered and they stopped talking.

"Ok?"

Seeing this, Li Xuan's expression froze, and he asked again: "Why are you silent!"

Qiu Shuye cupped his hands and saluted, "My lord, the students want to go to the forge!"

"Forge?"

Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"Can!"

"Thank you king!"

Qiu Shuye looked happy.
