Man Tanghong

Seeing that Li Yuanji agreed, Li Shimin was obviously relieved.

It can be seen that Li Daliang was his first favorite.

It’s just a matter of asking for help. If you directly state your purpose, there is a high chance that you will be rejected. If you first state one or two goals that are destined to be rejected, and then state your real goal, the other party will not be rejected after the rejection. It is best to continue to refuse, so that the chances of success will be much higher.

Li Shimin is obviously well versed in this method, so when he made a request, he naturally used this method, and in the end he also achieved his desired goal.

Li Yuanji saw that Li Shimin was tricking him, but he didn't care.

It's just Li Daliang, if you give it, you can give it, and you don't need to care too much.

If it is Li Jing, Li Shiji, Su Dingfang, Xie Shufang, Xue Wanche, etc., or Wang Xuance, Liu Rengui, or even Xue Li, who has not yet made his fortune, and other up-and-coming stars who are destined to make great achievements in history, then he will definitely do nothing. Reject Li Shimin without hesitation, and expose Li Shimin's scheme.

In many cases, whether to agree to a person's request or not depends entirely on the value of the person or thing requested by the other party in your heart.

If the value is too large, it must not be agreed.

If it is dispensable, then there is no need to care so much.

After chatting about the rewards for Li Chengqian, Li Yuanji went on to talk about the issue of cattle, sheep and horses, "If Chengqian is sealed in Turkic, other nobles will know whether the grassland I gave them is a fief. It will not be so easy for the pasture to pretend to be a fief.

Other nobles who didn't buy horses and didn't get Turkic pastures couldn't make irresponsible remarks.

It's even worse to drag the problem of the pasture to the fiefdom.

Those nobles who have not obtained the grassland will not make trouble with me. "

Li Shimin put away his thoughts on running the fiefdom for his son, and put his mind on this issue again, he frowned slightly and said: "In this way, the Turkic pastures will be less attractive to nobles.

The energy and money that the nobles can invest will also decrease.

The number of horses they will buy will also be reduced.

They alone may not be able to eat all the remaining horses. "

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "What if the pasture becomes a symbol of identity and status?"

Li Shimin was stunned.

He wasn't stupid enough to ask what was the use of turning a meadow into a symbol of status and status.

He knows the nobles of the Tang Dynasty very well, and also understands the comparison of the nobles of the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, not only nobles, but all the people in the Tang Dynasty, from the emperor to the traffickers and pawns, all have a heart for comparison.

It's just that compared to the nobles, the comparison of the traffickers and pawns is not so extravagant.

After all, nobles control most of the resources, and the number of nobles is less than that of traffickers. In this case, a little extravagance by nobles may be beyond the reach of traffickers in their lifetime. .

Grassland is undoubtedly a luxury that only nobles can afford.

At this point, the style and value of the pasture have been exaggerated, and it has broken away from the ranks of low-level tastes.

As long as it is properly guided, the nobles will start to compare the size of the pasture, the quality of the forage, the number of horses raised on the pasture, and the number of cattle and sheep, then the value of the pasture and the nobles' desire for the pasture will be determined. Unlimited pull up.

When it really came to that point, it was not that they were worried that the cattle, sheep and horses seized by the soldiers would not be sold out, but that they did not buy them.

After all, the vast majority of nobles are from aristocratic family backgrounds, each of them has a profound background and a rich family appearance. If you really compare them, they will be very generous, and they will infinitely pursue the size of the pasture and the number of livestock they raise go down.

It's like real estate speculation in later generations.

As long as the output and income of the pastures are not tilted on a large scale, and they are not able to make ends meet, they will continue to ask for it.

So Li Shimin skipped asking this question, and said straightforwardly: "How do you connect grassland with status?"

Li Yuanji smiled knowingly: "Father is a good horse, and I am also a good horse. Chengde will also be a good horse in the future."

There is a saying that the king of Chu has a thin waist, and the sixth palace is so thin.

When all those in power in the three dynasties of the Tang Dynasty were good at horses, the dignitaries did not raise horses like crazy.

Although many of them have already reached the pinnacle of their titles, and it is impossible to obtain a higher title, there is a difference between the same titles, one depends on the number of fiefdoms, and the other depends on the degree of favor.

In addition, whether their children and grandchildren can successfully inherit their titles and fiefdoms depends on the face of those in power.

Whether their children and grandchildren can go further, whether they can make the family more glorious while maintaining the family's wealth, depends on the face of those in power.

Those in power use their children and grandchildren and value them very much, so their children and grandchildren can succeed them as the most powerful ministers and become leaders.

Those in power don't use their children and grandchildren, and they don't value them, so their children and grandchildren will probably live a lifetime with an empty title, and when the next generation arrives, they will most likely disappear silently among the ranks of nobles.

Therefore, pleasing those in power is a homework they must do, and it is also a homework that their children and grandchildren must do.

Those in power will do whatever they like, which is the most basic.

The good horses of those in power in the Three Dynasties of the Tang Dynasty, how did they match up with them, do you need to ask?
Li Shimin was speechless for a moment, and rolled his eyes in a sullen expression, "It's enough for you to attack yourself, and you also need to bring your father and Chengde. Are you still a human being?"

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "I am also doing this for the good of Tang..."

Without waiting for Li Shimin to speak, Li Yuanji said again: "However, when it comes to my good horse, the nobles may not believe it. After all, although I have ridden many famous horses, none of them are famous in the world, and there is no story worthy of praise.

Say you are a good horse, I became a good horse because of your influence, and the nobles will believe it.

So I might have to take you down. "

Li Shimin is famous for his love of horses, not only in the Tang Dynasty, but also in history.

After he died, he was buried in the soil, and the entire relief sculpture was carved out of the BMWs he rode one by one for future generations to admire.

And there are many commendable stories between him and the horse.

For example, the BMW that accompanied him to conquer Liu Wuzhou and others, and the BMW that accompanied him to conquer Dou Jiande, Wang Shichong and others, with a little polish and a little legendary color, can become a story worthy of praise.

It can also become a talking pose for the ruling and opposition parties.

Therefore, publicizing his love for horses can win the trust of people all over the world.

Li Shimin rolled his eyes again when he heard this, and said, "You don't even want to let me go, do you?"

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "Who made my reputation for good horses not as great as yours, and I have never ridden any famous horses on the battlefield. I don't have any stories worthy of praise."

These words are somewhat flattering to Li Shimin.

But Li Shimin didn't feel complacent, instead he said with disdain: "I gave you a chance, but you didn't live up to it..."

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "Does it matter whether I compete or not? You win all your life, and if you lose once, you lose everything. I lose half my life, and if you win once, you win everything.

So it's not important to fight for anger.

What matters is when you win and when you lose.

If you choose the right one, you will lose for a lifetime, but if you win once, you will also win.

If you choose wrong, you will win for a lifetime, and if you lose once, you will lose. "

Li Shimin shut his mouth for a moment, and refused to say another word.

These words were like piercing his heart, and it pierced his most vulnerable place.

Not only was he speechless to fight back, but he also felt stuffy.

"Hehehehe..."

Seeing that Li Shimin stopped talking, Li Yuanji smiled and said, "Since you have no objections, then it's settled."

Li Shimin snorted, but still didn't speak.

Li Yuanji didn't talk to Li Shimin anymore, but called Sima of the Central Army, Sima of the Lingzhou Army, and the doctor of the Minbu to his side to discuss how to implement this series of things in detail.

When he discussed this series of matters with Li Shimin, he didn't carry Sima of the Chinese Army, Sima of the Lingzhou Army, and Langzhong of the Ministry of Civil Affairs behind his back, so it was easy to discuss.

In less than two hours, a feasible plan was roughly discussed.

As for whether Sima of the Central Army, Sima of the Lingzhou Army, and the Langzhong of the Ministry of Civil Affairs would tell the whole story and leak the wind, he was not worried at all.

There were only these few people in the tent, and only these few people knew all the news and inside information. If the news leaked, it must be these few people who said it.

When the time comes to move the knife, you don't need to carefully identify it, and you don't need to ask questions, just cut it directly.

Therefore, Sima of the Central Army, Sima of the Lingzhou Army, and the Langzhong of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, for the sake of their own heads, would not go out and talk nonsense, and even stared at the other two to go out and stop talking nonsense, so as not to implicate themselves.

After discussing a feasible plan, Li Yuanji sent Sima of the Central Army, Sima of the Lingzhou Army, and Lang Zhong of the Ministry of Civil Affairs to implement it according to the plan. Li Shiji and his party, who had joined the army, began to inspect everything in the Chinese army camp.

It is said to be an inspection tour, but in fact it is to meet those Wang Jia who are not qualified to greet him, and the soldiers who are not qualified to have a banquet in the Chinese army tent, to give a few words of encouragement, and to boost morale.

This is what every person in power must do after entering the barracks.

The purpose is to invite people's hearts.

Although there was no price paid, only a little time was spent, but the effect that can be achieved is sometimes better than giving rewards to the soldiers.

Rewards are things that are often seen by soldiers who can and will do meritorious service.

But those in power, the soldiers may only see it once in a lifetime.

Therefore, the encouragement and condolences of those in power are worth a thousand gold and ten thousand gold to some soldiers.

When they get old, when they face their children and grandchildren, say "His Royal Highness King Yong once saw me and talked to me", which is far more face-saving than bragging to the children and grandchildren about how many rewards they have won during the war. To be honored.
