The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

"What are you going to do?"

Li Shimin said nervously that only half of Tuyuhun's compensation had been paid, and the remaining half was all made up of cattle and sheep. Even if the court wanted to deal with it, it would take a while.

"I want them to die quickly. When the imperial court auctioned the grassland, they borrowed all the money I had. If the imperial court wants to auction the salt, I guess they will still come to borrow money and put it in the treasury." Lending them money and then taking over a large amount of their collateral, we took the opportunity to make a fortune.”

Li Xiang has the face of a profiteer. If it were normal times, Li Shimin would definitely scold him. As a prince of the imperial court, how can he be so full of money? But Li Shimin also admired Li Xiang's ability to make money. The lending policy he had introduced before had already allowed Li Xiang to earn millions every year. The money in the treasury was thrown away. If you go out and do some business, you might be able to earn back half as much.

"Go and ask Mr. Tang from Hubu to come."

Li Shimin knew the general situation of the Ministry of Household Affairs, but he must set aside enough operating funds. Otherwise, once the various departments of the imperial court stopped functioning, it would be fatal to the entire Tang Dynasty. Making money was important, but it must be Ensure the operation of the entire court, otherwise the entire dynasty will be over at some point.

When Mr. Tang, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, came in, he had doubts about the situation in front of him. People in the government and the public were saying that Li Xiang had fallen out of favor. But the situation today was different. The emperor summoned Li Xiang alone. It seemed that The relationship between grandfather and grandson is not bad, this is not a sign of falling out of favor at all!

"How much money can the Ministry of Household Affairs spend now? We need to ensure the normal operation of the court for three months."

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said, originally he wanted to ensure the operation for five months to half a year, but this kind of opportunity to make money is rare. Wu Xing Qi Wang has some high-quality assets in his hands, and he can sell them out soon.

Before the salt auction, Li Xiang's salt was not widely available across the country. Many people were not even aware of the existence of this kind of salt. They would definitely auction the salt with all their might and push the price to the highest level. After these people spend huge sums of money to get the salt, Li Xiang will immediately promote his salt to the whole country.

In fact, this is equivalent to a price limit. The best salt like me only sells for 500 cents per catty. If you sell it higher than what I sell, can anyone patronize it?

At that time, these people will have to sell at a lower price, otherwise all the customers will go to Li Xiang. Even if they want to increase the price, it will be within a controllable range. In short, they will definitely not make back the money from auctioning the salt. This amount was a direct loss.

The Five Surnames and Seven Hopes have great power across the country. It is impossible to kill them with one knife. What Li Xiang is doing now is to trick them in various ways. He will cut off a piece of your flesh on the grassland and Yan Yin. I'm a piece of meat with you. By the time you realize it, several pieces of flesh have been cut off. Even if you want to resist, you probably won't have the strength.

"Four million dollars."

Mr. Tang hesitated beside him. It took him about a stick of incense to calculate all the big expenses in the country. If he hadn't paid attention to his usual work, he would have had to go back and calculate it carefully. In such a short period of time, Being able to come up with this figure within a short period of time, Mr. Tang is really concerned about it.

"I still have two million strings here."

When Li Xiang heard what Li Shimin said, he took out all his private money. It seems that he really wants to make a big profit this time. According to Li Xiang's estimation, this money is basically enough, and all major families will get it. After this news, you will definitely come to Zhidaobao to borrow money, but for every penny you lend, you must provide two penny of mortgage. If there is no mortgage, then I'm sorry, we won't lend a penny here. .

"You should step back first."

With Mr. Tang here, there were some things that Li Shimin couldn't say. Li Xiang also felt a little cautious, so he let him go back first. Based on such a short meeting, Mr. Tang immediately guessed that the legend of the court was false. Xiang has not fallen out of favor at all. It is said that he is already Li Shimin's confidant, but when these issues are discussed, he cannot even be present. Li Xiang and Li Shimin discuss it in person. Can he fall out of favor? Lose your uncle.

"How much do you think you can earn?"

After Mr. Tang exited, Li Shimin said anxiously, taking out all his coffins. If the money he earned was not that much, Li Shimin would not invest the money. This might be the capital for his comeback. .

"After the price of salt was controlled, these people's desire to sell high-priced salt was shattered. They could only borrow money for three to five months at most, but within three to five months I guess they would definitely not be able to pay it back. , then they will inevitably dispose of a batch of assets. As a creditor, we are their creditors. We can give priority to the selection. In the process of liquidating the assets, I estimate that we can earn at least 30%, and if we are more ruthless, we can also make 40 to 50%."

Li Xiang made a conservative estimate. If these people default and fail to pay back the money, then Zhidaobao will directly take back all the collateral, and then they will lose more. According to the agreement, the loan A penny requires a mortgage of two pence. If you fail to pay after the repayment date, interest will be increased once every fifteen days. If you fail to pay within two months, the mortgage will be collected directly.

Whether these people sell their assets to repay the money, or Zhi Da Bao directly collects the collateral, it is an opportunity for Li Xiang and the emperor to make a lot of money.

"I don't seek to earn too much, as long as I can achieve three achievements."

Li Shimin didn't have such big ambitions. After all, he was taking out money from the treasury. Even if he could earn 30%, it would still be nearly two million yuan. Just one business operation could reach one-sixth of the imperial court's tax revenue that year. One, and he is still sucking the blood of top aristocratic families. Even if he does not make money, Li Shimin's heart will be happy.

At the beginning, Li Shimin always thought that these top aristocratic families would fall into trouble, but no matter how he planned it, they would not jump into the trap. This grandson was still capable. He made two operations and lost at least one-third of their family property. If this continues, No matter how powerful Wu Xing Qi Wang is, as long as you don't have money in your hands, can you survive just by relying on your reputation?
