It turned out that Li Shimin went on a visit and brought a team of escorts.

But it's also said that the dignified Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if he encounters any danger outside and has no guards to protect him, then he still has to do it?

This can also show that Li Shimin's mind is still very delicate.

There are peasants in the guise of the guards by their side, so that Li Shimin can solve a lot of trouble.

Inside the carriage, Li Shimin touched his beard and looked strategic.

And Wei Zheng was still holding the big watermelon in his hand.

On the way, the carriage stopped for a while, and after everyone went down to eat some dry food, they continued to set off for Chang'an City.

Inside the carriage, Wei Zheng opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

"Prime Minister Wei Zheng, do you have anything to say?" Li Chengfeng looked at Wei Zheng on the opposite side and said.

"Uh, no, no!" Wei Zheng shook his head in denial.

"Is there really not? I don't think you look so uncomfortable! ”

"Lao Chen, Lao Chen just feels very hot, and his body is fine!"

Wei Zheng had a smile on his face, in fact, Wei Zheng just wanted to ask Li Chengfeng, when will this watermelon be eaten?

Always let yourself hold it, that's not a problem, right?

I'm old, and I still have to hold a big watermelon?

"Alas......"

With a sigh, Wei Zheng still didn't dare to say anything about eating watermelon in the end.

After all, the emperor didn't order to eat watermelon, so how could he have the right to ask?

However, Li Chengfeng covered his mouth and snickered.

Because Li Chengfeng could see it, Wei Zheng's hands holding the watermelon were shaking.

This Wei Zheng is really dead to face and suffer.

Li Shimin and Li Chengfeng didn't talk about eating watermelon, Wei Zheng kept holding it and didn't let go.

Until the night, after all the people waiting for a carriage arrived in Chang'an City, Wei Zheng was still holding the big watermelon in his hands.

Wei Zheng was really tired, and his arms were sore.

"Emperor, Emperor...... This watermelon, why don't we eat it anyway? ”

Finally, Wei Zheng couldn't help but speak.

However, Li Shimin waved his hand, glared at Wei Zheng, and said: "Prime Minister Zheng, the top priority is not to eat watermelon, but to find a place to live, it doesn't matter if you want to eat, but you don't need to be in such a hurry?" ”

"It's the emperor, I was wrong!"

Wei Zheng was about to cry.

finally mustered up the courage to talk to Li Shimin about eating watermelon, but was scolded by Li Shimin.

Wei Zheng felt bitter and uncomfortable......

So, Wei Zheng held the watermelon again and followed behind Li Shimin, Li Chengfeng and others.

……

Several people came to Chang'an Avenue together.

Li Shimin motioned to the groom to drive the carriage to a place called the 'Tianxuan' tavern.

After Li Shimin finished inspecting the people's situation, they would collectively go to the Tianxuan Tavern to take a carriage.

At this moment, several people were walking together on the streets of Chang'an City, and the sky gradually darkened.

Because it was a micro-service visit, Li Shimin changed out of the dragon robe, just wearing some aristocratic robes, looking like a rich man.

In addition, Wei Zheng also changed out of his official uniform and dressed up as an ordinary boss.

Not to mention, the common people played by Wei Zheng are really presentable.

Sure enough, people rely on clothes, and trees rely on skins.

If you change into different clothes, your whole person's spirit will change greatly.

"Hey, hey......"

Wei Zheng held dozens of catties of watermelons, panting constantly, but helpless.

On the streets, people came and went, some people dressed plainly, and some rich people dressed in brocade clothes.

There are also some beggars who beg on the streets.

Whenever Li Shimin saw those beggars, his brows would unconsciously frown slightly.

After all, Li Shimin, as an emperor, of course wants to see his people prosperous, rich and strong, without worrying about food and clothing.

When he saw the people begging on the street, Li Shimin was naturally heartbroken.

Then he took out some broken silver from his pocket and asked Li Chengfeng to give them alms.

"Thank you, sir, thank you for the reward......"

Those who were rewarded hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Chengfeng.

Li Chenfeng looked back at Li Shimin and smiled awkwardly.

Li Shimin also showed a helpless look on his face.

……

"The people of this people, the poor are so poor, and the rich are so rich? Why is that? ”

Walking on Chang'an Avenue, Li Shimin muttered to himself.

Li Chengfeng wiped his little nose and said: "Father, this question is very simple, in fact, it is because someone monopolized the income of the people on the streets of Chang'an City, or forced to collect taxes, causing the people of Datang to have a bigger and bigger gap between the rich and the poor!" ”

"Huh? How do you know? ”

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengfeng in confusion.

Li Chengfeng smiled: "This reason is very simple! Everyone is an ordinary person, and they all work hard to make money with their own hands. As long as you are not lazy, although you do not seek to be rich and expensive, you can also have no worries about food and clothing, and you will not run to the street to beg, right? ”

"As we all know, people are a kind of creature who wants to save face! Who wants to run out into the streets and be a beggar unless they have to! ”

"Shhh...... Well, Feng'er, what you said does make some sense!"

Li Shimin touched his beard and nodded slightly.

Because Li Chengfeng is a scientific research genius who has traveled over the 21st century, he has more advanced ideas than the ancients.

Therefore, Li Chengfeng can see at a glance why the gap between the rich and the poor of the people in Datang is so large.

Li Chengfeng continued: "Another important factor is that today is a year of great drought, and many people have eaten up the food at home, and they have nothing to eat, so they can only come out to beg!" ”

"Hmm!" Li Shimin nodded, and continued to ask, "Then Feng'er, do you have any suggestions?" ”

"Yes!" Li Chengfeng said decisively.

Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "What attention?" ”

"That is, foreign trade!"

"Foreign trade? What's that? ”

Li Chengfeng's new name directly confused Li Shimin, Wei Zheng and others.

Foreign trade? None of them had ever heard the word trade.

If someone else had said it, they would have said it was a neurosis.

But if Li Chengfeng said it, the taste would be different.

There is always a sense of mystery in Li Chengfeng's words.

Even though Li Shimin could not understand the meaning of the four words foreign trade, he also had a feeling of great anticipation in his heart.

Li Chengfeng explained: "As for foreign trade, it means that my father used the money of the Tang Dynasty to go to Turkic, Tibetan, Goguryeo and other countries in the Tang frontier at a high price, and buy their materials at a high price!" ”

"As we all know, gold and silver are the world's common currencies, so as long as we pay for it, they will give food!"

"High-priced recycling? If the price is too high, will we buy it too? ”

Li Shimin asked again.
