This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 224 Volume [-] The Dragon Slayer Becomes a Dragon

They are not surprised that Yuchi Jingde, Hou Junji, Qin Qiong and other generals are like this, even if it is Wei Zheng, they are not surprised.

But people like Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu, and Kong Yingda did the same. This is what shocked them!

Is it all for profit?
What a joke, would an elm lump like Xiao Yu do such a thing for profit?

Don't forget, this is a ruthless person who once gave all his family wealth to his clansmen and only left his ancestral house for himself.

Does he care about money?
When Fang Xuanling shoots at the servants, will he tear himself apart with their noble family for a little profit?

For a while, the scholar officials said nothing.

They are indeed powerful, but in the court, after all, they are still inferior to people like Fang Xuanling.

Li Er watched this scene, smiled without saying a word.

What is balance?This is balance.

He knew very well what Fang Xuanling and the others wanted, nothing more than political returns. To put it bluntly, how many people in this world don't care about their names before and after their lives?

Fame, sometimes more fascinating than money.

He doesn't mind his courtiers pursuing these things, this is a human being.

If everyone had no desires or desires, then he, the emperor, would still be a fart.

"Fang Aiqing is right." Li Er saw that the fire was almost ready, so he said, "This is the beginning of the prosperous age of culture and education in the Tang Dynasty. In the past, people often mentioned auspiciousness. According to me, auspiciousness that cannot benefit the people, but It’s just a great achievement, the real auspiciousness is that the top can share the country’s worries, and the bottom can benefit the people.”

This is interesting, and the implication inside is extremely obvious.

"Your Majesty is holy." Everyone shouted in unison.

At the same time as the court meeting, Changsun Wuji was not idle.

He is at home because he is unemployed, so he doesn't have to go to court.

Early in the morning, he called back the shopkeeper who was in business at home.

From the attitudes of Li Er, Fang Xuanling and others, he guessed that in the future, this cheap paper will definitely shine in the Tang Dynasty, and it will definitely be sought after by scholars.

In this way, the business will be done.

All his life, Changsun Wuji wanted to build the Changsun family into a millennium gentry like King Cui Luzheng, and the birth of a gentry cannot do without the support of money.

This is quite ironic, everyone is afraid of the gentry, but everyone wants to be a gentry.

For thousands of years, it has never changed.

"When I was in Riyue Mountain, could I sign a contract with the Daming royal court?" Changsun Wuji asked.

The shopkeeper replied: "I signed it. At that time, I saw that the shop was free of rent this year. I happened to have a lot of goods in hand, and I couldn't deal with them in a while, so I signed the contract."

"This is not what the old man asked." Changsun Wuji said.

He really didn't notice a shop.

As soon as the shopkeeper heard it, he knew what Changsun Wuji was asking, and immediately said: "I didn't sign for the others. The time was too tight at that time, and everyone wanted to come back early."

Nodding his head, Changsun Wuji said: "In this way, you don't care about Chang'an. Immediately take all the money in the family and go to the Ming court. Remember, you must sign a contract this time, and you must sign a five-year contract at the shortest." As for the contract, it would be best if we can reach an agreement with the Daming royal court to only sell the paper to my eldest grandson's family, but this may be a bit difficult, and it is not mandatory, but the contract must be signed.

In this way, in addition to cash at home, you also bring other materials that can be used.

By the way, you saw Chong Er earlier, did he give any advice? "

"That..." the shopkeeper said with some embarrassment, "Xiao Langjun, we cannot enter the inner city."

They also wanted to enter the inner city before, but who knows, the guards at the city gate would not let them go at all.

The strangest thing is that some of them planned to sneak into the city with those people from Riyue Mountain, but they were all snatched out one by one.

This makes them very helpless.

The defenders of the city gate didn't check anyone, just like they had sharp eyes, they directly picked out their people.

"This time, I must get in touch with Chong'er, Daming Royal Court..." Changsun Wuji said with a smile, "I actually underestimated this nephew."

"Mr. Lang, if our family really wants to take the lead in the paper business, I suggest that we give up the Chang'an market for now." When Changsun Wuji mentioned Li Chengqian, the shopkeeper naturally didn't dare to say much, so he changed the subject.

Hearing what he said, Changsun Wuji asked: "Tell me, what do you think?"

"Although the market in Chang'an is large, almost every household in Xungui's family is doing this business. The small ones think it's better to quit the market in Chang'an for the time being and transport the paper to other places.

While everyone is still staring at the Chang'an market, thinking about waiting for the next pick-up before selling to various places, let's make the layout first.

Moreover, it is said that the Daming Royal Court has a money account, and the small ones also want to try it. If the interest rate is suitable, the small ones want to carry more goods next time, and further occupy the market in various places.

Even if a piece of paper is priced according to the price of the Ming Dynasty, the profit is only four yuan, but if it occupies [-]% of the world, the annual income may far exceed the sum of all the income of the family.

The most important thing is that such cheap paper must be in short supply, not to mention the high rate of return, it will be fast. "

It has to be said that people of this age are actually business minded.

Of course, his approach is actually not good in later generations.

After all, in later generations, the cost of manpower is too high.

But in Datang, the cost of manpower is almost negligible. As long as you can support your family, there are more people.

Changsun Wuji nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Okay, you can handle this matter, and leave for the Ming court as soon as possible."

At the same time, Changming Store.

Wang Dequan was extraordinarily busy, of course, he was not busy with business, but entertaining guests.

Since the paper caused a sensation in Chang'an City, many well-informed guys approached him, wanting him to introduce him.

Not only businessmen from Chang'an, but even Huang Song from Jingyang and others came to visit.

There is no way, Wang Dequan is a big hit now.

When a businessman came to look for him yesterday, he saw with his own eyes that the house servant, Shejia, was driving a carriage to ask Wang Dequan to go to Fangfu. When did a merchant get this kind of treatment?

Of course, things are not as simple as they thought.

The reason why Fang Xuanling was so polite was because he knew that Wang Dequan was not as simple as an ordinary businessman. To put it bluntly, he was the representative of the Ming court in the Tang Dynasty.

As the saying goes, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face.

And it was precisely because of Wang Dequan's truthful telling that Fang Xuanling was able to boldly threaten to punish the thief in the court today!

"Everyone, if you really want to do this paper business, you might as well go to the Daming Royal Court by yourself. This old man told you that the Daming Royal Court is now blooming everywhere, and you can make money just by walking around." Wang Dequan Smiled and said to everyone.

He knew that Li Chengqian wanted to make the business of the Ming court take shape as soon as possible, so he naturally had to share the worries for his highness.

And just because Xungui's family is doing business there, it is not too good for the Daming royal court.

After a long time, the business of those noble families has grown, and it is also a potential threat to the Ming court.

How can a country's economy be controlled by a small group of people?

"That's what you said." Someone said, "But for us, the Ming royal court is not familiar with the place, so how dare we set foot in it lightly."

"Why don't you dare?" Wang Dequan said, "The Imperial Court of the Ming Dynasty is still very friendly to merchants. As far as I know, merchants who open shops in the Imperial Court of the Ming Dynasty are free of rent for the first year.

Not only that, but the commercial tax of the Ming Dynasty is even more outrageously low. This is the present, when the business of the Ming Dynasty flourishes, even if you want to go there, you may not be able to find a way. "

Huang Song said: "But now those noble families have gone, can we fight against those nobles?"

After all, people are still worried about this.

Since ancient times, people have not fought against officials.

"See what you said." Wang Dequan laughed, "Where is that? That is the Ming court! The law of the Ming court is enforced. Where is there any honor? Everyone is the same.

What you said is purely worrying, just like you used the Shangfang sword from the former Sui Dynasty to kill the officials of this dynasty. It is purely a group of eunuchs drinking flower wine, nonsense!
I can tell you, hurry up if you want to go, there will be no such shop after passing this village.

Not to mention anything else, you have also seen the paper in my shop, and it sells for ten yuan a knife outside, but think about it, we only sold it for ten yuan a knife when we shipped it so far to Chang'an. How cheap!
Even if you go there and don't do other business, just buy more paper and come back, won't you still make a lot of money? "

"If you want to make a lot of money, you will also have a lot of capital. How can we have so much capital?" This is insincere.

Will these merchants have no money?
It's just that everyone is a little worried.

Wang Dequan didn't expose them, and said with a smile: "If you don't have money, you don't do anything. We are all in business and open a store. Who doesn't have any stock? Pull them all over!"

The people of the Ming court can't buy anything with money now, because of the lack of supplies, doing business there now is almost like picking up money. "

"That's like our restaurant, can you go over there and open one?" The eyes of the businessman who owns a restaurant immediately lit up.

If the rent is waived, their cost will be much lower, so they can try it.

Hearing what he said, Wang Dequan almost laughed out loud, but he still told the truth: "Well, I advise you not to get mixed up with the restaurant owner. Poor.

The old man also has a restaurant over there. After you go there, you will know what the old man means. "

In fact, after returning to Chang'an, Wang Dequan had already bought a restaurant in Dongshi, and planned to open a restaurant in Chang'an City, but he was still preparing and it would take a few days before it opened.

After chatting for a while, everyone dispersed.

As for whether anyone will go, Wang Dequan can't guarantee it.

Many things are like this, do your best and obey the fate.

As soon as they went out, everyone chatted with each other.

"Old Huang, are you going?"

Huang Song shook his head and said, "I don't dare to take risks for now..."

Almost everyone has this rhetoric, so I dare not for the time being.

This is also normal, after all, thousands of miles away, some worries are also normal.

And as his side dispersed, the Great Court Meeting also came to an end.

This time, the gentry officials were completely defeated!

Without him, when all the nobles stood together, plus Fang Xuanling and other powerful factions, they were not prepared enough, so they had to lose in a hurry.

After the court, the noble officials gathered together.

"Why don't you go to the Xin clan and let the clan come forward? Even Fang Xuanling is related to us by marriage." Someone said immediately.

His method is not good, it is nothing more than blowing wind in his ears.

After all, the marriage between the nobles of the dynasty and their gentry was still very close.

Lu Zhengqing snorted coldly, and said, "I don't even know what you're thinking! Can this be solved by in-laws? Have you understood the essence of this?"

Since Li Chengqian let him go, he has actually changed a lot, and he often speaks for Li Chengqian in court.

Of course, no matter how he changes, it can't change the fact that he was born in the Fanyang Lu family.

"Then what do you think is the essence?" Wang Shilang was rather dissatisfied. This guy is rebellious!

"Hey..." Lu Zhengqing sighed, and said, "Give up, the reason why the honorable group will stand up this time is not just for profit, but for political opinions! Think about it, if during the time when the house servant was in charge , Revitalize culture and education, what kind of achievement is this?
Kong Yingda, as the son of the state, how could he not support it?
Can Xiao Yu support it?

Can Wei Zheng support it?

Can the officials of the Manchu Dynasty support it?

In addition to other nobles who have benefited from paper, can you not support it?
Revitalizing culture and education, this is the mission of our scholars!

How can we stop it because of a small profit?
What we can do, shouldn't we also use this to revitalize culture and education?
Compared with those poor students, we have a stronger background. Instead of stopping it, it is better for all the major families to start to revitalize culture and education. Not to mention anything else, we start to revitalize from within our clans, isn't it possible?

Could it be that with the background of our gentry, can we still lose to a group of poor students?
If this is the case, even if our gentry are in decline, we deserve it!

What Fang Pushe said is right, the rebels who dare to obstruct the revitalization of culture and education should be punished! "

Ever since Lu Zhengqing escaped the catastrophe, Lu Zhengqing's ideological consciousness has been rising steadily. Everyone was stunned by what he said.

Don't they know that this is the political proposition of Fang Xuanling and others?

Of course I know, none of you are fools, and there are no fools who have gotten to this point.

It's just that they are not reconciled!
How many years has the scholar family dominated culture and education?

To revitalize culture and education, it must be them!When is it the turn of others to revitalize culture and education?
That is to say, in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, talents came out in large numbers, and after these old guys were boiled to death, their noble families would really show their fangs.

Not to mention anything else, in the Cui family, in the last Tang Dynasty, there were dozens of prime ministers alone!

How scary is this?
"Who do you call a traitor!" Someone asked dissatisfied.

Lu Zhengqing was not afraid: "Those who hinder the revitalization of culture and education are not rebels or anything!"

Snapped!
Wang Shilang slapped the table and said angrily: "Lu Zhengqing, don't forget, you are also a member of the gentry! If it weren't for the gentry to cultivate you, you would not be where you are today!"

"Differences do not conspire with each other!" Lu Zhengqing was not used to his stink, and left after saying a word.

It is estimated that Li Chengqian could not have imagined that at the beginning, he just did something conveniently, so that when he returned to Datang in the future, there would be less resistance, and he unexpectedly gained a hardcore supporter!
And watching Lu Zhengqing leave, Wang Shilang was so angry that his voice trembled: "This... this... the nobles can't tolerate him!"

"Don't say you can't bear him, and think of a way quickly, how to fix this matter!" Cui Yushi said helplessly, "Now this cheap paper is only sold in Chang'an, if it is sold to the full Datang, that is the bad news for our gentry.

We have spent dozens of generations of struggle to lay the foundation, don't we want others to equalize it for generations? "

This is actually the most ironic...

In this world, where did the gentry come from?Where did the wealthy family come from?Where did the family come from?

Picking up any person can reveal the essence of his ancestors who turned their backs to the loess and faced the sky!

It's just that with the inevitable development of social forms, there are always some people who become the small group of people and vested interests.

Then they used their small advantage at the beginning to slowly widen the gap with others.

In the end, they became a noble family, a wealthy family, and an aristocratic family.

But as time went by, these gentry, wealthy, and aristocratic families acquired more and more, which eventually aroused dissatisfaction among more people, and some people wanted to overthrow them.

As a result, new noble families, wealthy families, and aristocratic families were born again.

And those gentry clans in the past may have been annihilated in history long ago, and their descendants gradually became the oppressed people.

But no matter which group of people they are, when they are in power, they actually do the same things.

The lust for power knows no bounds.

Therefore, after going round and round, how many dynasties have been subverted, it has become the current situation.

Now, what they want to do is to extend this glory for a longer period of time.

"Let's inform all clans." Jingzhaowei's family said, "Although Zhengqing is a little more radical, he is right. How can the background of our gentry be compared to poor students? Since we want to revitalize culture and education, Then start from my gentry! Could it be that the children of my gentry are not as good as those poor students?"

"Compare! Can my sons of the gentry be afraid of those poor students?"

"Yes, let those poor students see what kind of heritage our gentry has."

I have to say that there are still smart people in the gentry.

It is not unreasonable for these gentry to prosper forever.

As far as the gentry are concerned, the current situation is indeed not something they can stop.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty want to revitalize culture and education for various reasons, which is no longer something they can compete with.

I really want to have a face-to-face fight with Fang Xuanling, hehe, Fang Xuanling didn't say that he would tear their gentry into pieces, but it was enough for them to drink a pot.

The reputation of Fang Mou's decision-making is not blown out.

In fact, it was the same. Fang Xuanling was ready for the gentry to counterattack. He held back a big move. As long as the gentry dared to counterattack, he would carry out what he said in the court.

It's a pity that he didn't wait for the gentry's counterattack in the end, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, he didn't want to completely tear his skin off with the gentry.

After all, his wife is still Fan Yang Lu's.

But no one expected that it was just a small piece of paper, but it started the most vigorous knowledge contest in history!
The two sides of the battle, the gentry VS the poor!

It was also this small piece of paper that completely pushed Datang's cultural and educational undertakings to the peak, created a large group of people, and left their names in history!
