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

Chapter 487 Volume [-] Wei Zheng: Your Majesty, I can assist you!

Regarding Fang Xuanling and the others' thoughts, Li Ermen was clear.

Classes have been opposed to each other since their existence, and this cannot be changed by any one person.

Don't look at Fang Xuanling's support for the revitalization of culture and education, but don't forget that it is culture and education. To put it bluntly, it is still the class of scholars.

Now Li Er wants to use this to promote industrial reform, which will inevitably elevate the status of craftsmen.

This is what they don't want to see.

Judging from the previous events, everyone has actually discovered that Li Er has been stimulated by the ever-changing craftsmanship of the Ming court.

In any aspect, you can't rely on others!
Even if that person is the crown prince of Datang, it won't work.

This is Li Er's attitude.

Therefore, when entering the Hall of Liangyi, everyone had a heavy expression on their faces.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng is getting more and more incomprehensible now. It's not that he can't understand Chang'an, but the one from Riyue Mountain.

In the beginning, he even doubted whether he was doing right or wrong.

But after Li Xiaogong detained Wang Dequan, Wei Zheng seemed to understand that it is still too early to draw conclusions, he might as well take a look first.

With such an idea, he felt much more relaxed.

Therefore, today's Wei Zheng looks at these things more often with the mentality of a bystander.

With such a state of mind, why is he so nervous?

Li Er smiled when he saw everyone's expressions, and said, "Why are you gentlemen? I just read Ji Guogong's memorial and I was very happy, why did you react like this?

Did something else happen that I don't know about? "

Everyone swears in their hearts, there are still things in Chang'an that you don't know?
It's just that hearing what Li Er said, everyone's hearts sank, and what they were worried about finally happened.

All the people present were smart people. Duan Lunpo wanted to buy Quyuanli, but it was that simple?
"Your Majesty, can I have a look at Ji Guogong's memorial?" Dai Zhou said, "I also want to see how magical the Qu Yuanli is!"

They actually guessed that two hundred sets of Quyuanli are not worth [-] guan, and the real value of [-] guan must be the technology of making Quyuanli.

Otherwise, with Duan Lun's character, how could he break the house and buy it back!

When Li Er heard this, he smiled.

He knew that these guys were in a hurry.

If he hadn't been in a hurry, Dai Zhou would not have said such a thing.

Is it possible that other people can read the courtier's memorial if they want to?
Of course, he didn't care, he waved his hand and asked the servant to send Duan Lun's memorial.

In just a short while, everyone gathered around read the contents of Duan Lun's memorial, and everyone was panicked.

Duan Lun, you are so brave!

"Your Majesty, no!" Dai Zhou hurriedly said, "The court has raised the salaries of craftsmen several times in a very short period of time, if this continues, I am worried that people in the world will value work and not literature.

This will chill the hearts of scholars all over the world!
Ji Guogong's move is really a disastrous move for the country and the people!

Besides, my household department can't come up with money and food, if he has the ability, let Duan Lun pay for it himself, my household department has nothing to say! "

After speaking, Dai Zhou flicked his sleeves and stood there angrily.

"Your Majesty, Ji Guogong's move is indeed inappropriate." Fang Xuanling also stood up immediately and said, "Although Ji Guogong is fully responsible for this mission, but he is good at specialization without invitation, this trend cannot last long!
Otherwise, the officials of Datang will follow suit one after another in the future, so what should we do? "

"Huh..." Li Er snorted coldly and said, "Ji Guogong made it very clear in the memorial that at that time all countries were staring at the batch of Qu Yuanli from the Ming court. He would rather destroy his family than to buy this batch of Quyuanli.

In the memorial, did Duan Lun say that your household department should pay?
He is full of patriotism, how can it become a disaster for the country and the people when you talk about it?

Do you know how much money Ji Guogong can save Datang every year?

Do you have to spend huge sums of money every year to buy Quyuanli from Daming, so that you are satisfied?

Or are you used to being strangled by others?

I don't know what to say! "

Fang Xuanling and the others looked embarrassed, how could they ignore this, but they understood.

With Li Er's character, he would definitely not let his courtiers suffer if his courtiers did this.

Since it is for the imperial court and for the good of the Tang Dynasty, Duan Lun's [-] guan will not make him lose his family.

Such a courtier does not love, so what kind of courtier should be loved?
If Li Er was such a king, the people present would have already run away.

And they are not the only ones who know this, doesn't Duan Lun know?

Duan Lun knows, he must know!
This is why Duan Lun dared to break the house!
But when Li Er said that, they couldn't refute it.

Did Duan Lun do something wrong in this matter?
No, absolutely not!
Even if they are replaced, it may be the same.

After all, this is really a good deal.

But the problem is, if Duan Lun only wants to do these things, it’s fine, but Duan Lun obviously wants to set off a new round of industrial transformation in Datang.

Look at what is said in the memorial, the decay of the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty is not in the mind, but in the spirit!

The transformation of industry is not about treatment, but about...

These all reveal Duan Lun's political views.

This is what they are afraid of or worried about.

And this is what Li Er most wants to see or what makes him most happy.

"Your Majesty, it's not long since the Tang Dynasty was brought to peace, so it's inappropriate to make too many changes." Fang Xuanling said, "Since ancient times, every reform has been the beginning of a storm, so be careful!"

Li Er actually knew this truth.

But ever since Li Chengqian gained a foothold in the northwest, he has been under too much pressure.

As an emperor, he has never had the consciousness of being second, not in any way.

What Li Chengqian can do, he can certainly do it, and he can do it even better!

What's more, if the Great Tang, the state of heaven, loses to the Ming court that Li Chengqian spent more than a year tossing about.

As the emperor of Tang Dynasty, he felt ashamed and flustered!
"Everything has risks." Li Er said, "If there were no risks, why did we overthrow the former Sui Dynasty? If there were no risks, why bother to follow me in the Xuanwu Sect?"

coax!
Everyone's brains exploded!
There was an immediate reaction, Li Er went crazy!

Can all this be said?

Immediately, everyone's hearts became more and more heavy, which showed that Li Er had almost made up his mind about the change.

This made everyone more anxious.

"Since I did it, I never cared what other people said!" Li Er was very angry, stood up and said, "I just want to tell you that there are risks in doing anything.

But if the benefits are sufficient, the risk is worth taking. "

As he said that, Li Er rummaged through the table and found an envelope, and threw it directly to the servant next to him, motioning him to hand it to Fang Xuanling and the others.

When Fang Xuanling took the envelope, she was still a little curious.

Curious about the contents of the envelope.

When Fang Xuanling and others got together to open the envelope, Li Er also came down and said casually: "The letter in your hands is the investigation of the situation of the Ming court in the past year.

How can I say that Gao Ming is my eldest son, even though he is now far away in the bitter cold place in the northwest, and he has his own place to stand, but as a parent, is there any reason not to worry?

Therefore, I have sent someone to secretly protect Gao Ming's safety, and by the way, I also know something about Gao Ming.

This is also so that when he is really in danger, I can help him in time. "

He explained for a long time, and everyone thought it was funny.

Surveillance is surveillance, and it is so grandiose.

"From this letter, you can also see that in the past year, the Daming royal court was completely supported by Daming's workshop.

It is no exaggeration to say that more than [-]% of the income of the Ming treasury comes from various workshops. "

Hearing what Li Er said, everyone also found the specific content in the letter, and everyone was surprised at the moment.

More than [-]% of treasury revenue comes from workshops?
This is terrifying!
Seeing this, Li Er said with a smile: "When I saw this number, I was also surprised.

At that time, I was thinking about a question.

Who knows what I'm thinking about? "

"Where does Daming get its food?" Fang Xuanling blurted out.

He was thinking about this question just now.

Ninety percent of the treasury's income comes from workshops, which means that Daming's agricultural income is almost zero.

But it's normal to think about it. Indeed, in the past few years, the imperial court of Ming Dynasty was either full of wars or natural disasters. Both agriculture and animal husbandry were hit hard.

A sharp drop in income in this regard is actually normal.

Li Er nodded and said: "Yes, I was just curious at the time, the agriculture and animal husbandry of the Ming royal court were almost paralyzed, so how did Gao Ming feed so many ordinary people?

Business?industry?
But these things, it cannot directly solve the problem of food and clothing!

No, Wen can solve it, how about fullness?
Is it holding copper coins to chew or what? "

Speaking of this, everyone nodded.

This is true.

"Speaking of this, I feel that Murong Fuyun was wronged." Li Xiaogong shook his head and said, "Gao Ming is not even self-sufficient in food, yet he was able to take down Tuyuhun. From this point of view, Gao Ming is indeed I've grown a lot."

"Yes." Li Er nodded and said, "Since Gao Ming went to the Northwest, he has really grown at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Remember when he was in Chang'an, did he behave like this?
Sure enough, the tree moves to death, and the person moves to life.

Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go back to the topic just now, where does Gao Ming get his food? "

"Every country sold grain to the Ming court." Dai Zhou said, "As far as I know, in the past year, all countries have sold grain to the Daming court.

Even though I, Tang Dynasty, finally issued an order to ban the export of grain, many people still sold grain to Riyue Mountain through various means. "

Li Er shook his head and said: "You made a mistake, no matter whether it is the Tang Dynasty or other countries, who doesn't know that the Ming court was short of food at that time?

Do you really think that the merchants who sell food are all good people?
In other words, Gao Ming is my eldest son, if not, I would never allow a grain of grain to flow into the royal court of Ming Dynasty.

That is breeding tigers! "

What he said was pure bragging.

If so, he would be more active than the others.

"If there was no grain to enter Daming at that time, the royal court of the Ming Dynasty would have difficulty in not having collapsed, let alone annexing the entire Tuyuhun." Li Xiaogong said, "The common people are the most docile, but sometimes they are also the most fierce."

"That's right, that's the truth." Li Er said, "Then you said that the countries have not seen this problem? Is it because Murong Fuyun didn't see it? Or Xue Yantuo's Yi Nan didn't see it?

Or did Ashina Sulli of the Western Turks and Songtsan Gampo of Tubo not see it?

impossible!

Even if Ashina tried his best, he also saw this scene, not to mention Yi Nan, who are outstanding for a while?
Although I look down on them, how can I be mediocre if I can compete with my Tang Dynasty in this world?

They clearly saw an opportunity to destroy the Ming court without any effort, why didn't they do it? "

Having said that, everyone fell into deep thought.

Indeed, at that time, as long as all countries did not send food to the Ming court, the Daming court would definitely be defeated without a fight!

"Because they have to do this." Wei Zheng, who had been silent all this time, said suddenly when everyone was silent.

"Have to do this?" Kong Yingda asked curiously, "Why?"

"Yes, why do you have to do this?" Dai Zhou also looked over curiously.

Li Er said with a smile: "Since everyone is confused, Wei Qing might as well explain it to everyone."

Originally Li Er was going to speak for himself, but since Wei Zheng had spoken, he was of course willing to let Wei Zheng speak.

After cupping his hands, Wei Zheng said, "Because they are not of the same mind. If they are not in the same mind, nothing will be accomplished."

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, Wei Zheng said again, "It should be said that the goods sold by the Royal Court of Ming Dynasty will affect the balance between them.

Take Western Turks and Xue Yantuo as examples.

Daming was selling Liannu at that time, as we all know, it was a weapon.

At that time, Western Turks and Xue Yantuo fought continuously.

At the beginning, His Highness only sold Liannu to the Western Turks.

With the Liannu, the strength of the Western Turks suddenly increased greatly, and Xue Yantuo, who was originally in the upper hand, was at a disadvantage. What would Yi Nan think at this moment?
He also wanted the Liannu, so he bought it from His Highness.

His Highness only proposed at this time to offset part of the purchase price with grain, but at this time, although Yi Nan knew that doing so was enlisting the enemy and breeding tigers, he could no longer stop.

Because, he can't guarantee that Ashina will continue to buy Liannu from Daming.

The same is true of Tubo and Subi.

It is precisely for this reason that all countries are willing to continuously transport grain to Riyue Mountain.

Because, what Riyue Mountain sells is ordnance that affects the balance between them.

In the final analysis, this is a conspiracy.

This business was done in the end, but all the countries rushed to find the Daming royal court to do business.

Because they were also afraid that the Ming court would sell more arms to their opponents, which would affect the war between them.

High, really high.

It may be the only one for the business to do this! "

After hearing Wei Zheng's words, everyone nodded.

In this way, everyone understands.

It's not difficult to understand.

"But isn't Your Highness afraid of selling weapons to the enemy country to strengthen the military strength of the enemy country?" Dai Zhou was a little puzzled.

Speaking of this, Wei Zheng said with a smile: "Do you know the price of a pair of crossbows? The most important thing is not this. The most important thing is that the crossbow bolts distributed by His Highness's continuous crossbows will only be supplied after a certain percentage is recycled. of.

In other words, His Highness will not sell crossbow arrows in the later stage, and even a crossbow in hand is not as good as a fire stick.

As for whether the craftsmen of their countries will research it.

Ha ha……

At that time, Da Ming is afraid that newer ordnance will be released on the market.

I'm afraid you don't know how amazing the investment of the Ming court in research and development is! "

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words.

But Li Er said at this time: "But in the final analysis, what Gao Ming holds in his hands is their necessities, if not, how could they be willing!
Therefore, industry, let me call it industry, has come to the time of reform.

If you are one step behind, you will fall behind every step. Have you forgotten the old story of the Ministry of Industry's re-engraving of the Liannu?

If it wasn't for Gao Ming's willingness to release Qu Yuanli's technology this time, how much time would the Ministry of Industry of the Tang Dynasty have to spend on research?
Moreover, even if Gao Ming is willing to release the technology in the future, is it impossible for me, Datang, to spend money to buy it every time?

Just think about it, how many new crafts have been developed by the Ming court over the past year!

If money is spent on technology, how much state money will be wasted?
It takes hard work to strike iron, my lords! "
