Daqin: After marrying a vegetative princess, I went crazy with joy

Chapter 189 Empty Gloves White Wolf

After a while, Li Si suddenly realized something was wrong.

The reason why Ba Qing helped the son-in-law build a factory was entirely to make money.

There is nothing wrong with businessmen chasing profits.

But the early childhood education proposed by the son-in-law is free.

This is not just free for individual students, but for all students, one or nine years.

Even if the imperial court can allocate funds to schools in the later period, it is unrealistic for wealthy businessmen to build schools!

Who would be willing to do a business where you can only get out but not get in?
Although the imperial court does not advocate naturalization as a merchant, the status of merchants is also the lowest.

But that money was earned by running around.

If people don't give money, they can't go and grab it, right?
Thinking of this, Li Si gave Liu Bai a strange look.

No way no way?The son-in-law wouldn't really want to do this, would he?
Think about it carefully, this is really possible.

His complexion changed slightly, Li Si asked cautiously.

"The son-in-law wants the aristocratic family and wealthy businessmen to build schools in various counties?"

Liu Bai laughed mockingly, and glanced at Feng Quji at the same time.

"Isn't Li Xiang dreaming? Do you think people from aristocratic families will help you go to school?"

Li Si opened his mouth, and shook his head honestly, regardless of Feng Quji's expression.

"will not!"

"That's it, the only ones that can be used are merchants!"

Looking at Liu Bai puzzled, Li Si was momentarily confused.

If it is an aristocratic family, there is still a slight possibility under the suppression of the imperial power.

But merchants are just ordinary people, how do you suppress him?

"The old minister is dull, please enlighten me!"

Liu Bai glanced at the courtiers and looked at Li Si with a smile.

"Li Xiang, please think about it. After merchants have money, what do they need the most?"

Li Si thought about it for a while, but still couldn't figure out what they would be lacking.

Ordinary people work hard for a year, but they don't earn as much as they do in a few days. What else is there to lack?

Seeing his confused face, Liu Bai sighed and shook his head.

How could I ask such a stupid question?

The people present are all powerful people. If they want money and fame, how can they put themselves in their shoes?
"Businessmen travel around for profit. After gaining profit, what they seek is fame."

"My dynasty emphasizes agriculture and suppresses commerce. Merchants are not allowed to take cars when they go out, they are not allowed to wear silk, they are not allowed to buy land, and future generations are not allowed to be officials...

"Pull out one at will, and they will come to help us build a school?"

Li Si looked up at him strangely.

The laws that Liu Bai spoke of were all formulated by him.

But what's the point of pulling out one at random?

"We can issue announcements in counties and counties that merchants can donate money to build schools, and the schools built can be named after him. At the same time, their families are allowed to wear silk, and they can ride in chariots when they go out. The offspring can go to school. If they study well I can be an official in the future..."

As Li Si listened, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Wonderful, the son-in-law's method is wonderful!

Leaving aside things like wearing silk and forgings and going out in a car, Li Si can be sure that merchants will flock to him just because offspring can be officials.

Who doesn't want their children to be successful?

There was no way before, so it doesn't matter if you don't mention it.

Now that the imperial court has given them a chance, the shrewd merchants will probably send it up without further ado.

"In this way, the money saved by the court can be used to build roads..."

I thought his idea was good, but unexpectedly Liu Bai shook his head.

"The imperial court's money has other uses and should not be tampered with. The problem of building roads is also very simple. Businessmen are looking for profit, and they can be allowed to pay for the construction. After completion, a toll station will be set up on the road. Pedestrians need to pay to pass. Of course, Charging time is limited..."

Looking at Liu Bai dumbfounded, Li Si no longer knew what to say.

The courtiers listened to his set of rhetoric, and couldn't even get in.

They are both brains, so why do they think so differently?
Such a simple thing, they just couldn't think of it before!

However, the empty-handed white wolf is still playing with the son-in-law!

Feng Quji and others, although they were squeezed out by Liu Bai before.

But I was relieved to hear that they didn't need to invest.

Standing in the hall with a relaxed expression, he wanted to hear what method Liu Bai could come up with.

But as I listened, I gradually felt something was wrong!

We are a good family, rich and powerful.

But we can use our own name to name the school, even if we don't make money, we can do it!
Son-in-law, you should look at us...

But he didn't know that in Liu Bai's heart, they had already been excluded.

Don't come when the opportunity is too late, since you didn't want to before, there is no need to talk about it later...

"My son-in-law, according to what you said, can orphanages and the like..."

Liu Bai looked at Li Si, raised his hand to give him a thumbs up, and nodded affirmatively.

"Of course, the orphanage can also let them contribute. Of course, the court can also contribute, and then let other people donate money, but whoever donates money will post a merit list directly at the entrance of the orphanage, write their names and the amount of donation ..."

"At that time, we can make some booklets for commendation to affirm their kindness. At the same time, the court can also regularly notify those who donate a lot to make them famous. Even the emperor can call some big donators from time to time. Good man, in this way..."

The more Li Si listened, the more excited he became. If he looked closely, he could find that his fingertips were trembling slightly.

Ever since Liu Bai excluded people from the family, Feng Quji was very upset.

Such good deeds will not only be famous in the world, but also increase the weight in His Majesty's heart.

But until the end, Liu Bai didn't mention them again, but the more he said the more outrageous.

"I'm afraid this move by the son-in-law is unacceptable! The merchants in the world don't know how many people are there. If everyone donates money, can everyone wear brocade clothes and ride in chariots, and the offspring can go to school and become officials? In this way, how many people donate? What is the difference?"

Nodding, Liu Bai smiled and looked at Feng Quji.

"What Feng Xiang said is right, that's exactly what I'm going to say next."

"The merchants are for fame, so they must not be allowed to get such benefits in the early stage, and only need to reward those who donate a certain amount.

"For example, if you build a school by yourself, you can name it after him. At the same time, your descendants can be officials, wear silk, ride in chariots, and buy fields...

"If the funds are limited, several people can jointly build a school, and the naming rights belong to the royal family. Their descendants can be officials and wear...

"Of course, the number is limited. Only the top [-] or [-] will have this opportunity. By then, the factory will have opened, so there is no need for them to get involved..."

Feng Quji, who was on the side, was dying of anger.

I was looking for trouble, why did I remind him instead?

Even if there were only the top [-], each county could only select two at most.

Could it be that such a great opportunity was missed?

People from other aristocratic families kept looking at Feng Quji.

They don't want to miss such a good opportunity!
Seeing that Feng Quji was indifferent, they couldn't stay any longer.

Before they could step forward, one person walked directly into the hall.

"Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"
