Chapter 361 Why?
Chapter 361
Wei Yuanzhao said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao didn't understand, he just looked at Wei Yuanzhao.
"Now that the royal family controls so much wealth, it will inevitably be the royal power and huge wealth at that time, and in the end, no matter what business there is in the future, the royal family will intervene.
When the time comes, the money of the whole world will be decided by the royal family, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs has no money.
Now those officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are not from the family, they are all ordinary children, and the problems they consider, our family also thinks that the wealth cannot be concentrated in the royal family.
I hope that this question, you have to think about it, now in the court, many ministers have written to His Majesty, hoping to hand over the shares of this workshop to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, not to the royal family.
The royal income last year exceeded 1.3 million yuan, and the income of the Ministry of Civil Affairs last year was only 3.5 million yuan, which has exceeded three percent, normally, the royal family should have taken more than 170,000 yuan from the Ministry of Civil Affairs last year, which is enough for the royal life, after all, the royal family still has a large number of imperial villages,
And the royal population is only more than 30,000 people, these more than 30,000 people, they use more than 3 million acres of land, not counting Yongye Field, these 3 million acres, are all good land! There are other industries as well!
Shen Yong, if these shares fall into the hands of the royal family, think about it, the royal income may exceed 3 million yuan, and the royal population is only 30,000 yuan, everyone can get 300 yuan, is it appropriate? Wei Yuanzhao sat there, looked at Wei Hao and said, Wei Hao sat there and thought about it.
"Shen Yong, you need to think about this matter clearly, now it's not just the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but now the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and the Ministry of Rites all have great opinions, if I remember correctly, your father-in-law and Fang Xuanling are all on the book!" Wei Yuan looked at Wei Hao and said.
"No, how did I not know about this?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao and asked.
"Because now those ministers have just learned about your eastern suburbs workshop, and they have just learned that the products made by those craftsmen are selling so well, and there may be huge profits, some ministers went to the craftsmen and asked them about their specific situation, those craftsmen, don't dare not say it, no, all of them broke out!" Wei Yuan looked at Wei Hao and said,
Wei Hao heard it, nodded, then stood up, and walked back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back.
"Prefectural order, prefectural order. Someone has come to the palace, and I want you to go to the palace! At this moment, the county Cheng Du came over from afar and said to Wei Hao.
"Someone from the palace?" When Wei Hao heard it, he was also stunned for a moment, and then nodded.
"You go first, I'll go out later, and I'll be seen, it's not good!" Wei Yuanzhao said to Wei Hao,
Wei Hao nodded, then walked outside and said to Du Yuan, "I'll send Patriarch Wei for me later!" ”
"Good!" Du Yuan nodded, and soon, Wei Hao got out of the county office and rode to the palace.
Li Shimin is sitting on the side of the Ganlu Hall at the moment, and in front of him are the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Chu Suiliang, Hou Junji, Li Daozong, Li Xiaogong, Duan Lun, Dai Xuan and others, among which Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong are against those ministers who said that they would hand over the shares to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
"Your Majesty, the reason for it, the minister and other colleagues also elaborated, which does more harm than good, and asks Your Majesty to think twice, how much money does Wei Hao need on his side, the support of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the royal family, it really shouldn't control so many shares, after all, last year, the income of the royal treasury exceeded 1.3 million yuan, and now there is still a lot of money lying in the royal warehouse,
Of course, the minister knows that His Majesty also took out a lot of money and did a lot of things last year, but His Majesty declared, is the future Son of Heaven declared? Also, so much money will speed up the decay of the royal family, please think twice, the minister asked for this, it is for the world, for the royal plan! Fang Xuanling sat there and said to Li Shimin.
"Nonsense, this money, our royal family will also take it out to do good deeds, last year, the royal family took out more than 600,000 yuan to do good deeds!" Li Xiaogong stared at Fang Xuanling angrily and said.
"King Hejian, you know very well in your heart that this money may not be a good thing for the royal family! The reason why you insist is because you are afraid that the royal children will scold you, and you ask yourself, should this money be given to the royal family? Fang Xuanling stared at Li Xiaogong and asked.
"Why not, it's not necessarily a good thing, but it's not necessarily a bad thing!" Li Xiaogong also shouted at Fang Xuanling.
"Also, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a huge amount of income over there, how this income came from, we don't know very well, last year, as far as we know, the income of His Royal Highness the Prince's East Palace will not be less than 600,000 yuan, if you add what you don't know, I don't dare to think that you know!" Chu Suiliang also said to Li Shimin.
Li Chengqian was also sitting there at the moment, and he was also very shocked to look at Chu Suiliang, the income of the East Palace last year exceeded 800,000 yuan, and at the end of the year, 400,000 yuan was transferred to the inner side, and he himself kept 100,000 yuan, and the extra money was spent on road construction and school repair.
"Okay, when Shen Yong comes over, I want to hear what Shen Yong means, but I'm curious, why don't you talk to Shen Yong, and this time, no one impeached Shen Yong, but gave me a recital?" Li Shimin sat there and asked them.
"This!" Those ministers heard it, you look at me, I look at you?
"Afraid that Shen Yong will beat you?" Li Shimin then asked.
"Your Majesty, it's definitely not, in fact, the reason is very simple, the workshop was made by Wei Hao, if we impeach him and he doesn't get it, wouldn't it be troublesome?" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin with a wry smile and said.
"Oh, I see! You are afraid of offending him now, okay, you have nothing to impeach him in the province, but now that you all talk about this matter, I am thinking, those workshops of Shenyong before, there is no movement on the side of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
In addition, the reason why Shen Yong wants to give it to the royal family is not because it is necessary, but because Shen Yong, a child, is intimate with the eldest grandson and the queen, and wants to take the royal family to make some money.
And now, if you want to take it, Shen Yong may not agree, why give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, what reason is there to give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, can Shen Yong make that money himself? You know Shen Yong's ability, how many things Shen Yong gave to the royal family, you also know, paper workshops, ceramic workshops, brick workshops, etc., a large number of workshops, all of which are for the queen to become shareholder, this is Shen Yong's filial piety to the queen, so why, Shen Yong wants to give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs? Li Shimin sat there, looked at the ministers and asked,
Now those ministers were all dumbfounded, they really hadn't thought about this problem.
"That's right, why should Shen Yong's shares be given to you, can he make money by himself, can he find someone to cooperate with?" Li Xiaogong's eyes lit up at this moment, and he asked those ministers.
"That's it, Your Majesty still knows, otherwise, I was almost bypassed by you, why, Shen Yong gave it to the royal family, it was because the queen mother was here, you all know that Shen Yong's deep queen mother's love, and the queen mother is very trusting Shen Yong, you rob it like this, will Shen Yong give it to you?" Li Daozong was also sitting there, and he also asked them rhetorically.
"This!" Chu Suiliang was also dumbfounded, he didn't know what to say at all, so he could only look at the others.
"Your Majesty, what the minister means is that Shen Yong will give it to the royal family, and the royal family will give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs!" Fang Xuanling said to Li Shimin.
"Why? Shen Yong's filial piety to the queen's mother, why should he give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs? Li Xiaogong immediately asked rhetorically.
"This, we have all said the reason, Your Majesty please think twice!" Fang Xuanling was very helpless, so he could only look at Li Shimin, in fact, Li Shimin understood everything, but it was difficult to let the queen take it out and let the royal family take it out, this is not the interest of one person, it is the interest of the entire royal family, who dares to call the shots easily? Li Shimin hoped that the Ministry of Civil Affairs would participate, but he didn't dare to make such a decision.
"Your Majesty, Xia Guogong is here!" Wang De came in at this moment and said to Li Shimin.
"Let Shen Yong in!" Li Shimin said to Wang De, Wang De immediately gave up his hand, and after a while, he brought Wei Hao in.
"Erchen has seen his father!" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin first.
"Excuse me, come, sit down, sit beside me!" Li Shimin pointed to the stool next to him and said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao smiled and nodded, then saluted to the prince and other ministers, and then sat down,
Li Shimin poured Wei Hao a cup of tea and said, "What are you busy with?" Well? Since the banquet in the East Palace is over, my father has never seen anyone from you, why did you go, how busy are you, a county order is busier than me? ”
"Father, isn't this going to be an industrial zone in the eastern suburbs? A lot of things need to be planned, during this time, it is also to transport a large number of green bricks and sand and gravel to the eastern suburbs, sand and gravel now need to be dug quickly, otherwise, when the weather is warm, the ice in the upstream melts, the water will rise, and there will be no way to dig sand and gravel at that time. Wei Hao sat there and said to Li Shimin.
"You're going to dig?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked.
"Nope!" Wei Hao shook his head and said.
"You didn't dig it, what did you do, don't talk about those things, I know, you kid is hiding from me, right?" Li Shimin continued to stare at Wei Hao and asked.
"Father, there is nothing to do, I will see you every day in the short period of time during the New Year, and it will be more than ten days." Wei Hao said helplessly.
"Okay. For the sake of the things you did in Wannian County, I don't care about it, in the future, I'll come to the palace if it's okay, now there are a lot of concerts, I let Gao Ming deal with it, what about me, there is still time, eh, I originally wanted to go to the Emperor Taishang to play mahjong,
Okay, just after the Lantern Festival, he moved to live with you, and I don't want to go to your house with a lot of excitement, so I can only be here every day, reading books and drinking tea, and you have to make a warm house and tea set, otherwise, I won't be bored to death? Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said,
Wei Hao laughed, and then said, "Okay, I'll come over when I'm free, don't cheat me!" ”
"Don't pit you, don't worry, you are now the county magistrate of Wannian, just be the county magistrate of Wannian County." Li Shimin immediately waved his hand and said.
"Okay, I'll come and see you when I'm free." Wei Hao nodded and said,
The other ministers also looked at the two of them, and they all knew that Wei Hao really liked and trusted Li Shimin, Wei Hao didn't come, Li Shimin still had opinions, and the other ministers wanted to see Li Shimin, and they needed to say hello in advance, and they didn't even see it.
"Well, do you know what is going on in the court now?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.
"What's wrong?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin with a confused expression.
"Rabbit cub, can't you come to the court? Hiding every day? Li Shimin immediately scolded Wei Hao.
"Nothing, what's going on?" Wei Hao glanced at Li Shimin, then looked at the other ministers and asked.
"Well, Shen Yong, I heard that you are going to open dozens of workshops in the eastern suburbs? And I heard that the profits are amazing? Fang Xuanling stared at Wei Hao and asked.
"Why are you so well-informed?" Wei Hao pretended to look at them with a shocked face, they almost rolled their eyes in anger, now there are so many green bricks piled up in the eastern suburbs, and there are a large number of carriages to transport green bricks, lime, sand and tiles over there every day, they are not blind!
"Shen Yong, is the profit big?" Fang Xuanling continued to stare at Wei Hao and asked.
"This, how to say it, doing business, there must be losses and gains, right, who dares to say profits?" Wei Hao continued to smile at them and said.
"Others can not talk about profits, you? You don't talk about it? Tell me about the workshops you did, which one was at a loss? Chu Suiliang immediately stared at Wei Hao and said.
"I didn't do these workshops, let's be clear, they really have nothing to do with me!" Wei Hao immediately emphasized.
"Eh, Shen Yong, don't be sloppy with us, we have inquired clearly, those workshops have your shadow, and those craftsmen respect you very much! If you can't worship you, there is nothing you don't understand. Li Jing touched his head and said, Wei Hao spoke as soon as he heard him, it seems that what Wei Yuanzhao said before was true, but his face was still confused.
"Shen Yong, what we ministers mean is that the equity of these workshops needs to be handed over to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, otherwise, the royal control of such money is not good for the royal family and the world." Fang Xuanling said to Wei Hao touching his beard.
"Why?" Wei Hao asked rhetorically, and they all looked at Wei Hao in a daze.
"What are you kidding, why should I give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has not given me benefits, my mother will think about me if she has good things, and your Ministry of Civil Affairs will think about me? My queen mother made me a dress from time to time, and your civil ministry will make it for me, what are you kidding, I am filial to my mother! Wei Hao looked at them and said with an unhappy face,
And Li Shimin heard it, that was happy, that proud. I really didn't misunderstand this son-in-law.
"That's it, Shen Yong, Uncle Wang supports you!" Li Xiaogong was even happier when he heard Wei Hao say this, and said with a thumbs up to Wei Hao.
"Originally, I just met Lizhi, my mother was worried about having no money, I thought, get more money for my mother, so he won't worry, oh, your Ministry of Civil Affairs wants those workshops now, I won't give it, there is no reason for this, I didn't take anything from your Ministry of Civil Affairs? I haven't even taken it! Wei Hao sat there and said with a look of disdain.
"Shen Yong, your Yulu, it was punished by His Majesty, and it has nothing to do with our Ministry of Civil Affairs!" When Dai Xuan heard this, he immediately said to Wei Hao,
Li Shimin was also a little embarrassed at the moment, but he still said to Wei Hao with a straight face: "You made a mistake yourself, isn't it normal for me to be punished?" Besides, you're not that close? Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about these workshop shares. ”
"What does this say, I don't agree with it anyway!" Wei Hao sat there, shook his head and said, then took the tea and drank it, after drinking, just put down the teacup, Li Shimin poured tea for Wei Hao, Wei Hao hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Father, I'll come by myself, I'm a little thirsty!" ”
"Okay, pour it yourself, drink it slowly, it's hot!" When Li Shimin heard Wei Hao say this, he put down the fair cup, Wei Hao took it, and drank it upside down.
"Shen Yong, if the queen is willing to hand over this share to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, what is your opinion?" Fang Xuanling then asked Wei Hao, Wei Hao, who asked, was stunned, and Li Shimin was also stunned.
"How is it possible, my mother can still give money to the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Wei Hao said in disbelief.
"Regardless of whether it is possible or not, just say your opinion, if Your Majesty and the Queen Mother agree, what is your opinion?" Fang Xuanling continued to ask.
"Well, in this way, if it is said that I have given the shares to the queen mother, then what to do with the queen mother, it is my mother's business, I have no right to manage, and I will not care,
But if you are forcing my mother not to take those shares now, and want the Ministry of Civil Affairs to talk to me, then don't talk about it, I won't give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs! Why should I give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, why should I give it to the court for my own money-making things? Doesn't make sense, right? You also have property at home, can you hand it over to the Ministry of Civil Affairs? Right? Wei Hao sat there, asking them questions continuously,
Those ministers also nodded, and this is indeed the reason.
"Shen Yong said it very clearly!" Fang Xuanling nodded, and then looked at Li Shimin.
"What's wrong? I haven't decided on this matter yet, and I haven't discussed it with the queen mother, you have the ability to persuade the queen mother to go, persuade the royal relatives to go, this matter, the queen mother dare not make the decision alone! Li Shimin looked at the ministers and said,
In fact, Empress Changsun has known for a long time and wants to give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but there are many clansmen on the royal side, and His Majesty needs the support of the royal family.
"Your Majesty, the minister will go to the queen mother today to talk about this matter, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" Fang Xuanling arched his hand and said, Li Shimin stared at Fang Xuanling.
"Your Majesty, minister, I have no selfish intentions, I just hope that Datang is getting better and better, and it can be passed on forever!" Fang Xuanling once again arched his hand to Li Shimin and said, he is a left servant, the officials of the entire Tang Dynasty respect him, he must stand up, even if Li Shimin is not happy, he must stand up.
