Early Tang Dynasty Concubine

Chapter 204

"What do you think they want?" Li Shimin asked curiously.

"My Majesty, let me say something you don't like to hear. When we rebelled in the Tang Dynasty, except for the emperor who wanted to protect himself, of course he also had some ambitions. Those officials who rebelled with you are not counted, because they rebelled for profit. , then why did the common people rebel with you?"

Hearing Cheng Churui's words, Li Shimin reflected for a while: "Some want to get ahead, some want to take revenge, and most of them just want to have food and clothing! I remember that when recruiting soldiers, they only needed to write a meal, and a sentence could attract many people. warrior!"

"Damn! That's the reason. You really thought that Xue Yantuo and the Turkic gang rebelled. They liked that because they burned, killed and looted. They also wanted to live. If they didn't do that, they would have trouble getting through the winter. That's why they rebelled with the leaders of the tribe. And As long as we can supply their needs slowly, those common people can buy food from us. How many people do you think will follow suit to rebel, Your Majesty?

As for those dignitaries, if they can get rich, why would they rebel?So my plan is a very long-term plan. Maybe we won’t be able to wipe them out in such a long time. After they are wiped out, how to manage them? There is really nothing growing in that place. In addition to raising livestock, a piece of prairie can also grow. What can I do?
But we really need a group of livestock for us!Think about it, now our farm cattle are so precious, more expensive than fucking people, it's hard to even eat a bite of beef.Every day I look forward to which cow is old and which cow is injured!

At that time, it will be different. There will be large herds of cattle, some can plow the land, some can eat, and isn’t there a natural horse farm?And sheep!In short, it depends on whether you can think of it and whether you can use it. All this is the key.

By the way, Your Majesty, I know that you may send troops this year. You have always been worried about the Weishui agreement, and no one can stop you from taking revenge!But at that time, Xue Yantuo must appease him.

Of course, there is a loophole in my plan, that is, the rice in my Datang may not be enough for my own use, so how can I sell it to others?Do you know that I know a Hu businessman named Malhan?I guess that guy is coming back soon. I asked him to find two things. If this kid finds them for me, that would be a real achievement!
One is a kind of food that grows in the ground and is about this big. The yield per mu is hard to say, it’s not very low anyway, but one thing is certain, that thing can be grown even in mountainous areas, which is the key!
There is also a kind of rice, which is scary to mention. In the south, rice can be grown three times a year, and in the north, it can be grown for one season!The most important thing is that the rice yield is still very high, and then you will have a feeling that there is so much food that you can eat and throw away. "

Hearing this, Li Shimin was excited. He was really excited. What the emperors of all dynasties wanted to solve the most was the problem of food and clothing for the people. This is also a sign of a dynasty. If the environment is able to work happily, of course it is enough to eat.

"What you said is true, there is no joke before you!" Li Shimin was quite excited!
"I don't know if it's true or not, but it's just what I heard. It's just that I can be more confident, because many Hu merchants have seen this thing, so it's important to deal with assumptions, carefully verify, and finally come to the truth. The emperor's matter Don't worry about things, let's talk about Xue Yantuo first.

No matter what, let's take it little by little, slowly! "Hearing what Cheng Churui said, Li Shimin also knew that he had lost his composure just now, so he calmed down and said: "Go on. "

"Actually, it's better to establish a trade than sending them away, and our first batch of goods should be free, and then return a large number of items there, so that both of us are happy and happy. In fact, if the emperor didn't want to avenge his shame, The Turks can also use the same routine, and they can be disintegrated within a few years.

And ah!I heard that Yi Nan is a grasshopper. You are a great winner in the Spring and Autumn Period, and my Tang Dynasty is also strong. There are so many civil servants and military generals. Now Yi Nan is a little submissive, but can you guarantee which of your descendants will not live up to it? ?When the time comes, barbarian men will turn against each other, so you want to build an eternal Tang Dynasty. Your emperor is the most difficult to sit on. Even if you have a prodigal child, you must have a prodigal foundation, right? "

After listening to Cheng Churui's words, Li Shimin nodded. He is not a person who can't listen to persuasion, otherwise he wouldn't have kept Wei Zheng to trouble him every day. Of course, Cheng Churui also knew that this was just the current Li Shimin, not the one ten years later. Li Shimin, who is in power alone, so before that time comes, Cheng Churui can act recklessly and act wildly. When that time comes, he will have to earn enough capital to stay at home honestly.

"You give me a report on this matter tomorrow, and I will discuss it properly!" Li Shimin said.

"Yes! Your majesty, please let me not say it. This matter cannot be discussed in the court at all. You think those old stubborn people can agree, and they can talk about it! To educate the people, those people who have problems must be people, my lord The people of the Tang Dynasty were honest and kind, and their enlightenment was correct, but before the barbarians became civilians, they didn't teach ass.

I don’t understand how to govern the country, but I know that Lord Rufang and Lord Du are dedicated to the country and the people, and what they want is to make my Tang Dynasty stronger.And some people are thinking about their own future, thinking about their own future.

I remember when I was studying art, I went to a place. My master took me there. It was a small country, far away from our Tang Dynasty. The king there had a saying that I liked very much, although That dynasty finally fell. "

"Oh! I have never asked you, kid. You seem to have appeared suddenly. I have had people check you. You have not been in the Central Plains for several years. Can you tell me where you have been in those years?"

"I went to a very wonderful place, I can't explain it for a while, we are not talking about this, you still can't hear it!"

"Then tell me what the king of that country said. I'm curious. It's definitely not easy to make you admire!"

"The original words passed down by the founding king of that country to his descendants are: the emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies the country! No land, no compensation, no marriage! His descendants did do it, but the ending was a bit miserable, but I don't think His descendant is a foolish king."

"It does have the aura that a king should have. I am even more curious about how a king with such thoughts can destroy the country. If the steel is too strong, it is easy to break!"
