Li Shimin instinctively wanted to nod, but thinking of the arrogance he had just heard, he was too embarrassed to relent.
If you admit that this kid is really capable, wouldn't it mean that you are indirectly admitting that I am really inferior to a pig?
no!no!
This is absolutely not okay!
"Guanyin Maid, it's too early to make a conclusion now. Maybe he just guessed by chance. It's not too late to take a look."
As Li Shimin spoke, his face showed such an arrogant look that it made Empress Changsun roll her eyes wildly.
Your Majesty, you are such a tough-talking person!
……
"Li Kun!"
In the cell, Han Chuan, who was already drunk, looked at the stunned Li Chengqian and deliberately laughed: "Why are you motionless?"
"Huh? Sorry Master, it was my disciple who was rude."
Li Chengqian came to his senses, quickly apologized, and filled Han Chuan's glass again.
"Master, please continue."
"Since all the major families want to be famous, how can we break the situation?"
As soon as the question was asked, Li Chengqian immediately concentrated his attention.
On the other side of the wall, Li Shimin immediately chose to forget what he had said before and put his ear to the wall!
"My good disciple, it's better for you to take the high road!"
Han Chuan picked up the wine glass, drank it down in one gulp, chuckled twice and stopped talking about it: "It's very simple, hiccup! The simplest solution is to mark the merits with stones!"
"Let the imperial court or a certain dignitary come forward to erect a stone tablet outside Chang'an City, hire a craftsman to engrave the names of all the families who donated food, arrange them in order from most to least, and declare that they will not be postponed for a hundred years, so that the people of Chang'an City and all people traveling to and from Chang'an can Even foreign envoys can see it!”
"In the final analysis, what the family wants from this move is just fame. As long as they grasp this key, the court can completely shift the conflict and let them move from becoming famous by stepping on the imperial power to becoming famous by stepping on each other!"
"Whoever donates less will always be suppressed by the major families, despised by all the people in Chang'an City, and all countries in the world. They will be considered the weakest family, and their reputation will be completely wiped out!"
"In order to avoid this situation, the major families can only be forced to compete in donating food!"
"Of course, this method can only solve the urgent need, and can only be regarded as a barely applicable last resort."
Li Chengqian: "This is a fucking bad idea!!!"
Li Shimin; "This is a fucking bad idea!!!"
"Strange, why do I feel like I heard two voices?"
Han Chuan was confused. After looking around and finding no one else, he thought for a moment that he might have been hallucinating when he was drunk.
"Master, please stop joking!"
Li Chengqian interrupted Han Chuan's suspicion, his eyes turned red.
He was so anxious that he didn't notice the strangeness just now, and was still immersed in extreme shock.
At this moment, he felt that his brain was about to burn out, and the principles of governing the country from saints that he had learned in the past were all nonsense!
How could this kind of inescapable and peerless conspiracy that could turn things around just solve an urgent need!
"if not?"
Han Chuan rolled his eyes and retorted: "It is only the first time that a stone tablet is used to record merits. If natural disasters break out in the second, third, or fourth time in the future, and you ask the court to erect stone tablets to record merits, then the major families will have trouble with you!" "
"Besides, people still have to farm and farm, so it's impossible for them to remember the rankings of so many stone tablets!"
"If this is not a solution to an urgent need, what else can it be?"
"..."
Li Chengqian was completely speechless!
Although what Han Chuan said was reasonable, his father and he just wanted to get through the current situation and had no plans for the future.
And Master, he actually still has dreams about what to do if he encounters the second, third, or fourth natural disaster.
There is simply no harm without comparison!
"To be honest, I think this plan is perfect."
Han Chuan rolled his eyes: "Look at your ignorant appearance. Don't say you are my apprentice when you go out!"
"I haven't even said what the best plan is yet. It's too early for you to be satisfied!"
"Ah this!"
Li Chengqian endured the collapse and showed a smile that was more embarrassing than crying: "So Master, what is the best solution?"
third chapter
In Zhao Prison, Li Chengqian wanted to cry but did not dare.
In fact, he already wanted to leave, because he felt that the method of recording merits on stones was terrifying enough!
No! It’s so unconscionable!
If he listened to it again, he was worried that his heart and his five surnames and seven hopes would not be able to bear it!
How cruel!
Unfortunately, Han Chuan had no intention of letting go of Li Chengqian and pulled the latter back as he stood up.
When he was drunk, he seemed to be unable to stop talking once he started talking.
After backhanding Li Chengqian a glass of wine, he smiled and said, "Haha! Don't look so bitter. This is for your own good as a teacher."
"My teacher will soon attain enlightenment and become an immortal. By then, even if you want to seek guidance from my teacher, you won't have the chance."
As he spoke, Han Chuan suddenly showed a meaningful smile: "And this best solution is actually very simple."
"That is to ask the court or a certain powerful person to come forward to open a warehouse to release grain, but it is not a free charity, but to sell it at a high price, and actively guide the major families to raise the price of grain!"
"Then when food prices are at their highest, sell them all at half price!"
"When the time comes, we guarantee that there will be no more disaster victims in the customs!"
Li Chengqian put down his wine glass: "???"
Even if he automatically ignored the crazy words of immortality in front of him, the poor Crown Prince was still full of question marks.
"Master, please forgive me for being stupid. Why can't I understand this at all?"
If he could still understand a little bit about the previous record of merit from stone, then the best solution would be to be completely clueless and not even be able to find the door!
Isn’t disaster relief just about giving out food and porridge?
Why do we join so many others in driving up food prices, and why do we sell them at half price at the end?
What does this have to do with the fact that there are no more disaster victims in the pass?
If these words were not from his master, but to anyone else, Li Chengqian would definitely think that he was amusing himself.
"I know you don't know anything, but that's normal. After all, this knowledge is still too early for Datang."
Han Chuan picked up a chicken leg and explained patiently while eating it: "To understand this good strategy, you need to understand the market economy."
"Simply put, this rule is that all purchases of goods are summarized as demand, and all sales of goods are summarized as supply."
“When supply is less than demand, commodity prices will rise; when supply exceeds demand, commodity prices will fall.”
"Although there have been many disasters in the past few years, it is only limited to the areas around the pass. In other states and counties, the weather is still good and the food is abundant."
"The reason why there is food shortage is purely because the five surnames and Qiwang want to find strange things to live in. They want to wait until the people are desperate, and then force them to sell their fields and girls, so as to make a huge fortune for the country." "This scam seems perfect. But in fact, as long as one participant breaks the rules and deliberately lowers the price of food, then as panic spreads, all the major families will rush to open warehouses to sell food!"
"In later generations, this situation will also be called an economic bubble, and once the bubble bursts, everything will be born again!"
"At that time, all food will return to its original price, or even lower, and the disaster in the pass will naturally disappear!"
"Disciple! Compared with tying stones to record merit, this is the real conspiracy that can cut off the flesh of a noble family!"
As he spoke, Han Chuan's eyes showed a hint of reminiscence.
Before he traveled through time, bubble bursting would happen every ten years or so. Lowering food prices was just a small test, and many developed countries even existed in name only because of it!
Destroying a country without blood is nothing more than this!
"Disciple! Do you think this strategy of mine is better than recording merit with a stone..."
After withdrawing his thoughts, Han Chuan wanted to continue mumbling a few words, but he stopped mid-sentence.
In front of him, Li Chengqian looked blank, his eyes weeping silently.
Seeing that Han Chuan was looking at him, he immediately cried and kowtowed: "Master, from now on you will be the benefactor of the Tang Dynasty and the benefactor of all people in the world!"
Han Chuan stared blankly and quickly helped him up.
"What are you doing? You were just bragging, why did you suddenly kneel down?"
He was deceived by Li Chengqian and did not understand how significant his words were to Li Chengqian.
At this moment, for Li Chengqian, any words were pale and could not express his gratitude!
No one knows how angry his father and uncles were and how many times they shed tears in order to solve the disaster relief problem. They even thought about kneeling down and begging various aristocratic families!
I was already in despair, but out of reluctance, I came to Zhao Prison to ask the master with the mentality of giving it a try.
Unexpectedly, not only did he get two disaster relief methods, but Shangce could also use this to counterattack and severely damage many aristocratic families, directly chopping off their flesh!
This is an extravagant hope that my father never dared to dream of before!
"Master!"
"No matter what happens in the future, as long as my disciple is alive for one day, he will definitely ensure that the master will live a lifetime of glory, wealth, and power!"
Li Chengqian showed his true feelings, looked at his master who was supporting him, and gave his biggest promise!
"You stinky brat, my teacher was kind enough to help you, but you actually gave me such a vicious blow!"
Hearing this, Han Chuan, who was still worried, suddenly became angry!
Let go immediately and push this vicious disciple to the ground!
"Still prosperous, rich, and powerful? Do you, a guy with no hair on his head, think of yourself as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Chengqian: "..."
"And don't forget that you are also a member of an aristocratic family. Even if you take ten thousand steps back, you want to kill your relatives for justice."
"What channels do you have to tell His Majesty these two methods? And persuade him to adopt your suggestions?"
This one is...
Li Chengqian swung his butt and stood up, feeling a headache. He really didn't know how to tell his father these three methods.
If he said that this was all his own thought, not only would his conscience be difficult to pass, but no one would believe it either.
But if Han Chuan's existence is exposed, given his father's temperament, I am afraid that he will kill the master directly as soon as he finds out that he has taken someone as his master without authorization.
By then, I really wouldn’t even have a place to cry!
What should I do?
However, all these embarrassments disappeared the moment he was kicked out of Zhao Prison by Han Chuan.
"clever!"
Outside Zhao Prison, yellow flags were fluttering, and hundreds of guards were lined up. Li Shimin walked straight from it, his eyes red!
Before Li Chengqian could react, he pressed down on the confused latter and asked excitedly: "What is the origin of your newly recognized master!"
"hehe!"
Changsun Wuji chuckled twice and said disdainfully: "Your Highness, please stop treating me as a fool. Your Majesty has no brains to come up with such a subtle method."
Li Chengqian: "..."
He was speechless for a moment to refute.
"There are hibiscus trees on the Tang Valley. I bathed in them for ten days, in the north of Black Teeth. There is a big tree in the water. It lives on the lower branch for nine days and on the upper branch for one day." - "The Classic of Mountains and Seas·Haiwai Dong Jing"
……
By the frozen lake, Wang Yuanqing woke up in pain on a withered and frozen tree.
There were gusts of cold wind all around, and I couldn't feel any temperature. Except for a few beating green lights in the distance, there was no other light.
Deep in the endless cold wind, the source of the green light was a series of low roars in the style of an ape, as if they were ghosts seeking life.
who I am? Where am I? What am I going to do?
Wang Yuanqing's head was dizzy, and countless memories collided in his mind, making him quickly discover a terrible fact!
He became a crow!
Hou Yi shot the sun, the nine suns fell, the hibiscus withered, and Xi He traveled far away!
The once prosperous Tang Valley turned into a world of ice and snow, leaving only the Xihe Palace lineage, and now I am an ordinary crow in it!
wrong!
It's a dying crow!
"quack!"
OMG!
Feeling the heat gradually erupting in his stomach, if Crow still has a face, then Wang Yuanqing must be in agony now.
This is the reason why the predecessor died. It swallowed a dark golden blood bead!
I don’t know what is happening now, but my body temperature is soaring instantly, and my blood seems to be starting to burn!
How to do?
Endless fear swept over him, and Wang Yuanqing was anxious.
Suddenly, his soul trembled inexplicably, and messages appeared out of thin air.
Life: Wang Yuanqing
Race: black-feathered crow
Cultivation: one year
Bloodline: None
Arousal level: none
[Swallow the contaminated blood of the mythical beast and begin to assimilate and absorb it! 】
Rumble!
Invisible lightning flashed across my mind, creating a picture.
In the year 4062 of the Xuanhuang calendar in the Kyushu world, meteorites fell from the sky in the southern part of the Black Teeth Kingdom. In the next three years, several provinces around the country suffered from a thousand-year drought.
Along the roads in the fields, there are dead bones buried everywhere!
The once Kingdom of Abundance has completely turned into hell!
The imperial court ordered Xihe Palace to investigate, but with little success. In the end, only seven pale golden blood beads were found where the meteorite fell.
It cannot be swallowed, cannot be refined, and cannot be destroyed by any known means!
Moreover, unprecedented high temperatures broke out every nine days, and in the end they had to be thrown into Tanggu to suppress them, with Xihe Palace responsible for guarding them.
Bang!
The picture ended and turned into a new message.
Assimilation and absorption completed - Obtain a thin bloodline of the divine bird Golden Crow, burn with magical powers, and achieve a hundred years of cultivation!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
A hundred years of cultivation?
Wang Yuanqing was overjoyed. He didn't expect that he would be a blessing in disguise, transforming from a cute fledgling to a century-old bird in an instant!
As for the bloodline and magical power of the divine bird Golden Crow, it is even more of a surprise among surprises.
For the first time in thousands of years, the endless ice fields of Yugu lit up with dazzling fire! (End of chapter)
