Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Fang Yuan saw Li Shimin in the imperial study.

After a simple salute, Li Shimin kindly arranged a seat.

"Fang Yuan, are things going well these few days?"

Li Shimin said as if he was pulling home.

"It went well."

"There are already more than 130 aristocratic families investing in road construction, and more than 50 investing in community building."

Fang Yuan smiled and said.

The money invested in road construction by each family is enough for Fang Yuan to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

But for Fang Yuan who is in charge of Huaxia Bank, money is actually just a number.

"I have already found out the reason why Qiwang, the five surnames, left Chang'an City."

Li Shimin suddenly changed his expression and sighed.

"what reason?"

Fang Yuan asked.

I thought it should be what I heard.

"They want to rebel. Starting from Qingzhou, one person has been raised in Qingzhou."

Li Shimin said solemnly.

He has already determined that the five surnames and Qiwang want to rebel.

And the young man named Qingshan in Qingzhou was also identified by him as a person selected by Qiwang with five surnames.

"So they left Chang'an City early to avoid being controlled by the court?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

He also thought of this early on.

For this, Fang Yuan has to admire, a big family is good.

Five surnames and Qiwang had many careers in Chang'an City, but they left without the slightest reluctance.

They don't seem to worry about being annexed by the emperor, or being affected during the war.

"Yes."

"A group of hateful families."

Li Shimin said bitterly.

He hated those families.

I have long planned to disintegrate them, but it is not waiting for me.

The officials produced by the imperial examinations have not been able to play a role and cannot resist them.

As if he deliberately supported Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan was flying at the same speed, and he was just a servant.

"Then tear your skin apart, don't break it and don't stand it."

Fang Yuan thought for a while, and said in a deep voice.

The deep-rooted family is the cancer of this era.

It's not easy to eradicate them, but you have to try.

With the current strength of the imperial court, it is not impossible to tear the face off with them.

After all, they are all going to rebel now, so what is there to hesitate about?
"This is the only way things can go."

"Before the five surnames and seven hopes are resolved, I need the support of some people such as Cui Zhentang."

"Fang Yuan, you know what I mean, and you can understand what I mean, right?"

Li Shimin said with a sigh.

He thought about using time to solve the problems of the great families.

But obviously, those aristocratic families refused to give him time, and started to create chaos now.

That being the case, let's unite with stability seekers like Cui Zhentang and deal a fatal blow to Cui Runyu.

For the big family, he knew about the diversion choice, so he was not surprised, and felt that Cui Zhentang was trustworthy.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand!"

Fang Yuan shook his head, said in a deep voice.

He understands, but he doesn't understand.

Li Shimin and Cui Zhentang's deal should not be paid by him.

"Fang Yuan, Cui Zhentang made a deal with me, tell me the situation of the five surnames and seven Wangs, I will give him the Minister of the Household Department."

"Fang Yuan, you are still young, in the future you will not be limited to the position of a minister, the Minister of the Household Department will give Cui Zhentang first to understand my difficulties."

Li Shimin spoke in a good voice.

I hope Fang Yuan can support his choice this time.

"Your Majesty, if you hadn't come to me and offered me a condition, I wouldn't have any complaints now."

"But now, you have changed your mind, and it's not because I did something wrong. Do you think I can understand your difficulties?"

Fang Yuan almost sneered.

All these problems were caused by Li Shimin.

He let himself understand, so who will understand himself?
"Fang Yuan, the overall situation comes first, can't you take care of the overall situation?"

Li Shimin's face became ugly.

He felt that he was annoying enough, but he was lucky enough to talk to Fang Yuan.

Now, Fang Yuan is so unusual that there is no overall situation, which makes him angry.

"Your Majesty, the overall situation is to sacrifice the individual and fulfill everything?"

Fang Yuan's eyes sank, he said coldly.

"At some point, it did."

Li Shimin said solemnly.

"That is to say, if the person involved is His Majesty, His Majesty will sacrifice himself, right?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"nature!"

Li Shimin said without any hesitation.

For the country, he sacrificed a lot.

Feelings, interests, family affection, etc., he has sacrificed.

"Since His Majesty has said so, then I have no objection."

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."

Fang Yuan suddenly saluted Li Shimin and asked to leave.

"Ah, oh, ok, you go back first."

Li Shimin was surprised.

Fang Yuan was surprised by his sudden change of mind.

But since Fang Yuan changed his mind, he also heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately, Fang Yuan didn't make an ugly mess with himself, and didn't make people laugh.

At this time, the external problems have not been resolved, and the internal emperor and ministers are at odds.

It is taboo.

Fang Yuan resigned.

Li Shimin watched Fang Yuan leave.

He was still very surprised, he didn't understand why Fang Yuan suddenly changed his mind.

It was obvious that I was about to quarrel with myself just now, why did I leave suddenly?
"Wang De, has anything happened to Fang Mansion recently?"

Li Shimin called Wang De and asked.

"Your Majesty, the villain has not heard of it, do you want the villain to ask someone to inquire about it?"

Wang De ran over.

"Need not."

Li Shimin shook his head and said.

Just as he was about to tell Wang De to leave, a possibility suddenly appeared in his mind.

Immediately said: "Quick, call Fang Yuan back!"

Li Shimin thought of a possibility, a possibility that made him gnash his teeth with anger.

Not long after, Fang Yuan was called back by Wang De.

"Fang Yuan, when will the money invested in road construction and community building be returned to the treasury?"

Li Shimin pretended to be indifferent and said.

He guessed that Fang Yuan transferred the money away.

"Your Majesty, that's the money I earned from the cooperation with the great families. Why should I ship it back to the treasury?"

Fang Yuan said with a half-smile.

It's only now that I think of it, it's too late.

"You, how can you do this?"

"That's the country's tax collection for several years!"

Li Shimin suddenly jumped up angrily.

The annual tax revenue of the imperial court is 2000 million, but there is not much left in the national treasury every year, and it even owes money.

Nowadays, Fang Yuan's road construction and community building may bring 5000 to [-] million yuan, which is the income of the national treasury for several years.

Such a large income, but it has nothing to do with the imperial court at all, was all restrained by Fang Yuan?
"Your Majesty, didn't you say that in the current situation, you have to sacrifice yourself?"

"I have already sacrificed myself, you can't sacrifice nothing, you want everything, right?"

Fang Yuan looked at Li Shimin, hehe laughed.

"You, you are working with me!"

"Without me, how could you make so much money!"

Li Shimin said angrily.

"It is true that His Majesty's permission is required to sell the land to build a community, but the road construction is completely negotiated between me and them."

"If His Majesty doesn't want to sell the land to them for development, then I can terminate the cooperation with them."

Fang Yuan shrugged, said indifferently.

Under the current circumstances, Li Shimin would definitely not dare to terminate his cooperation with the aristocratic family.

To build community cooperation, to a certain extent, is also a way to bind together with the aristocratic families.

Although this method is not very effective, there is a high probability that these aristocratic families who want to develop will not join forces with the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs.

"You bastard, how dare you plot against me?!"

Li Shimin walked towards Fang Yuan angrily.

"Your Majesty's words are really disgusting!"

"Obviously it's you who backtracked on what you promised, so how could it be that I'm plotting against you?"

"Why, the emperor can set fire, and the minister is not even qualified to light a lamp?"

Fang Yuan sneered.

Turn a blind eye to Li Shimin's anger.

Now, I am no longer a small county magistrate.

It is the Minister of the Household Department of the fourth rank who holds the real power.

It is the emperor, unless he is fatuous and doesn't care about chilling the hearts of the ministers, he will not kill people casually.

Under normal circumstances, as long as any minister of the fourth rank has not committed a heinous crime, many ministers will stop him when the emperor wants to deal with it.

Because the emperor and the ministers are two wholes, the ministers have to think about themselves, and they have to plant a good relationship for themselves to be made things difficult by the emperor for no reason.

This is why most ministers walk in a decent way when they leave office, because they also want to be decent in the future.

"you you you"

"Stay with you, fine, but you have to give it to me when I need it!"

Li Shimin was angry and angry, the hand that pointed at Fang Yuan trembled.

But what Fang Yuan said made him speechless, and he couldn't find a reason to refute.

"It can be used!"

"But borrow, not give!"

Fang Yuan stood calmly, said calmly.

"Do you want to go too far?"

"If you let me borrow it, I will let Huaxia Bank print money!"

Li Shimin blushed with anger and shouted angrily.

"You can print as many as you want."

"But don't forget what I told you about inflation."

Fang Yuan shrugged, said indifferently.

After deciding to print banknotes, Fang Yuan and Li Shimin chatted about why banknotes could not be printed endlessly, and the issue of reserve money.

Hazard has already told Li Shimin that if he doesn't mind, then let him seal it. Anyway, Datang belongs to his Li family, and it is his problem to lose everything.

Now, Fang Yuan seems to understand a little bit, why the big aristocratic families don't have the reason to be the emperor, it is too difficult to organize the world, and there are too many considerations.

But governing the family is different. You only need to let the family develop, and the methods can be more vicious. You don't have to worry about depriving the people and being rebelled by the people.

"Do you have to treat me like this?"

Li Shimin said angrily.

"Your Majesty, you were the first to treat me like that."

Fang Yuan said with a sneer.

"Bastard!"

"I don't want to see you, so get out!"

Li Shimin clenched his fist and growled.

Fang Yuan calmed down, bowed to Li Shimin and left.

Perhaps, from this moment on, I broke with Li Shimin.

But Fang Yuan didn't regret it, he just fought for his own interests.

Between the emperor and his courtiers, there is a struggle in itself, one is fighting for the imperial power, and the other is fighting for the power of the ministers.

Just like that, Fang Yuan left.

The next day was the fifth day when Li Shimin and Cui Zhentang confirmed the date.

On this day, as soon as the genius came out, Cui Zhentang asked people to spread the news that the emperor had ordered him to be promoted to Minister of the Household Department.

As soon as the news came out, the dignitaries in Chang'an City were in an uproar, all inquiring about the accuracy of the news.

It is obvious that Fang Yuan is going to complete the emperor's agreement, the Minister of the Household Department will be at his fingertips.

But why did it still return to Cui Zhentang's hands in the end?
Is the ability of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs really so terrifying?
"Fang Yuan, are the rumors outside true?"

Because it was still early, Fang Yuan hadn't gone to the morning court yet.

Although Du Miaoyan is pregnant, she is still used to getting up early.

Because Fang Yuan was going to the early court, Hongxu and Qingxie and others also got up early.

After hearing the news from outside, Du Miaoyan and others looked at Fang Yuan puzzled.

"The emperor and Cui Zhentang have a new deal."

Fang Yuan simply explained.

"Damn it, how could Your Majesty do this?"

"That's right, obviously he was the one who went to find the master first."

"Isn't the master's hard work all this time in vain?"

Du Miaoyan and her daughters defended Fang Yuan and accused Li Shimin one after another.

Even though Li Shimin is the emperor, Fang Yuan is more important in several people's hearts.

"It's annoying, but not in vain."

"I've had money from governors all over the place shipped to us."

Fang Yuan chuckled.

Although he did not get the post of Minister of the Household Department, the money he earned was not turned over to the treasury.

He earned hundreds of millions in just over half a month, which is not a bad loss compared to Shangshu Hubu. After all, he is still young and there are plenty of opportunities in the future.

Youth is capital!
"Isn't it inevitable to have trouble with His Majesty?"

Du Miaoyan said with some worry.

The courtiers and the emperor, after all, the emperor is respected.

If the emperor wants to deal with his courtiers, it is much easier than if the courtiers want to deal with your majesty.

Unless it is said that it is a powerful minister who invades the government and the opposition, it is difficult to wrestle with the emperor.

"Yes, but it's okay."

"The emperor is a wise king, he won't mess around."

"If he wants to target me deliberately, it's a big deal not to do it."

"With our current money and strength, the emperor dare not touch us."

Fang Yuan has confidence.

Now the Fang family seems to have risen for a short time, and there is only Fang Yuan alone.

But the Fang family currently controls a lot of things, and they also have a lot of people.

There are outsiders like Lu Xia and Xue family sisters, Fang Yuan regards them as his own.

Thanks to the security guards trained by Lai Yingzhe and the guards like Liao Fengmao, Fang Yuan also regarded them as his own.

There are also Juzi and Sun Simiao, etc., who are all part of the Fang family, and they are forces that cannot be ignored by the Fang family.

Especially in terms of weapons, Fang Yuan has created the strongest weapons of this era.

With them, even if Li Shimin is a faint king, he has to consider the consequences.

"Since my husband has an idea, I will support you."

"It's a big deal, we don't want anything, and return to Yamada."

Du Miaoyan said softly.

Rich people make people nostalgic, but they are also things that restrain people.

If Fang Yuan is willing to quit, then she will support Fang Yuan unconditionally.

"With your words, I can rest assured."

"Take good care of the baby at home, I'm going to the household department."

Fang Yuan smiled knowingly, feeling warm in his heart.

Soon, Fang Yuan left for the household department.

The officials met along the way looked at Fang Yuan with different eyes.

Fang Yuan didn't pay attention to this, he calmly accepted all the gazes, and finally came to Hubu.

At this time, news came from the direction of Qingzhou.

The young man named Qing Shan was supported by many people.

Then the Qingshan boy went to attack Dongpu's fishing boats with his supporters.

Not only won, but also captured several Japanese fishermen, and killed the Japanese at the port.

As soon as the news came out, the Qingshan boy became more famous and more people supported him.
