Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1596 Delayed news
With the reduction of post stations, coupled with the reduction in investment from the imperial court, there is much competition for post stations for various resources.

So there are still many problems here in the station.

It is definitely not an easy task to solve these problems without increasing investment.

After Gao Shilian heard what the staff said, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Although it can't touch Qin Tian's bones, it seems to be not bad to make him a little troublesome. Don't worry, I will arrange it."

If Qin Tian is to be responsible for this matter, Gao Shilian has a lot of ways.

The staff smiled slightly and did not doubt Gao Shilian's words.

The next morning, in the middle of the court meeting, an official stood up.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the border, but it is three days later than the scheduled time. They said that the food and grass are not enough. If we want to raise the food and grass they need, we must be faster. If we can arrive on time, we will Don't be so troublesome."

After the official said this, other officials also complained.

"That's right, last time we had a memorial from the official department, but it was several days late. When the memorial came, we didn't know what the delay would be."

"The same goes for our household department. The last time we asked various places to count the population, they were too slow for a long time."

"........."

The news is slow and not timely enough. Sometimes if they are not in a hurry, there is nothing wrong with it, but if they are in a hurry, then the news is slow and the problem is a bit big.

Three provinces, six ministries, Jiuqing, they have encountered this kind of situation more or less. Now that someone brings it up, they have to stand up and complain a few words. guilty.

As these people spoke, Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly.

He has encountered this kind of thing before, but the things he encountered before were not very urgent, so he didn't take it to heart.

Now that all departments are complaining, Li Shimin knows that the matter is serious.

Of course, Li Shimin didn't know much about the reason why this happened in the post station. He only knew that after the Tang Dynasty eliminated all the princes, the post station became less important because of the need for money for various constructions, so the investment in the post station was reduced. .

In this way, the transmission of news is slower than before, but the delay is a bit puzzling.

Today's Datang is still relatively wealthy, but he is still a little hesitant to invest his money in the post station.

"My dear gentlemen."

After the voice fell, the whole hall suddenly fell silent. At this time, Li Shimin continued: "I know what you said. A place like a post station, whether it is big or small, cannot be ignored. The situation of the post station , It is indeed time to send someone to solve it, dear friends, who is willing to take over this matter?"

When Li Shimin asked, several officials wanted to try it out, but at this time, Li Shimin added another sentence: "However, the imperial court does not have much budget for the station, so try not to increase the budget."

Originally, solving this matter is considered a great achievement. There are many people who want to make contributions, and naturally they want to do it. It's just that after hearing Li Shimin's words that he would not allow an increase in the budget, those who want to jump out also want to do it. They all shrank back.

Above the main hall, there was silence.

No one wants to stand up and take over this matter.

Qin Tian stood in front, even more indifferent. This kind of matter is not a big deal, but it is not easy to solve. Generally speaking, it is a bit troublesome, and he doesn't really want to take over.

However, at this moment, an official stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that only Master Qin Tianqin can resolve such a major matter."

After this person stood up, other officials in the DPRK also stood up one after another.

"My lord, I also think Lord Qin is suitable."

"That's right, Master Qin is so powerful. To solve this matter, it's really easy to do. Why don't you let Master Qin do it."

"........."

In the court hall, there were many people who recommended Qin Tian. After Li Shimin saw this situation, he smiled wryly. It would be a bit overkill for Qin Tian to do this, but seeing that other people were unwilling to go, he could only click on it. Head: "Qin Aiqing, what do you think?"

Qin Tian scolded those people eighteen times in his heart, and then said: "I will follow the arrangement of the Holy One."

If he refuses, it means that he will not share his worries for Datang. This is not good, but if he does not refuse, he does not want to do it, so he can only let Li Shimin arrange it.

Seeing this, Li Shimin curled his lips and said, "Then Qin Aiqing will do it for you, but remember, it must not exceed the court's budget for the station."

If it's someone else, Li Shimin doesn't mind spending a little more in the budget, as long as it's not too much, but if it's Qin Tian who is doing this, then it must not be allowed to exceed the budget.

If Qin Tian is asked to do this and the result is over budget, is it any different from asking someone else to do it?

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Qin Tian couldn't help scolding those who recommended him just now.

On the surface, he could only take orders in a hurry.

After seeing Qin Tian taking the order, a sneer appeared on the corner of Gao Shilian's mouth.

"Qin Tian, ​​I didn't expect you to have today. If you don't increase the budget, I'll see how you solve it. If you don't solve it, you will feel better."

Today's scene was naturally arranged by Gao Shilian. He asked a few people to raise the matter, and then recommended Qin Tian. It couldn't be easier to handle, and he didn't think anyone else would do such an errand, right?
After solving this matter, Li Shimin and the officials talked about other things before finally retreating.

When retreating, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu immediately surrounded him.

"Brother Qin, can this matter be resolved?"

"How do you talk? Are there any things in this world that Brother Qin can't solve?"

Several people even gave Qin Tian a high hat, and Qin Tian smiled wryly.

"It's easy to solve the problem, but if you want to cure it completely, you have to do it yourself. Who of you is willing to accompany me to the posthouse?"

These generals, if they don't fight, they don't have much to do on weekdays. In Cheng Chumo's words, they are idle. So when they heard Qin Tian ask who would like to go to the post station to play, they immediately became excited shouted.

"I'm going, I'm going."

"I'm going too, I'm going too."

"........."

They were all willing to go, Qin Tian nodded and said: "Okay, since we are willing to go, let's go and have a look now."

This matter is difficult for others, but it is relatively easy for Qin Tian. He just needs to go to the station to see what is going on.
