Li Ren's eyes flashed, I am so crazy that I will agree to you to be an official.

Isn't it good to eat, drink, and be merry every day, and stay at home comfortably?

I have to get up and go to work every day. Fighting with these wine bags and rice bags?

Li Ren looked around. The color of disdain for the face leakage.

Don't look at the current minister's amiable face, everyone admires him.

That's because it's in the Temple of Manna. Now all the people present are Li Shimin's descendants, and there is no minister of the family. If these words are taken to the Taiji Hall today, the officials of the family will not tear me apart.

At that moment, Li Ren refused. "Your Majesty, the minister is still young. There is no urgency in the affairs of the officials. Nowadays, it is still a matter of disaster relief. ”

After speaking, there was a serious look at the ministers in the palace. "The key to the success of my plan today is the word secret. All the ministers are the ministers of His Majesty. I hope you don't do anything sorry for Your Majesty. ”

"Oh, say it quickly, we are all His Majesty's retainers, so we naturally know the seriousness of the matter." The eldest grandson, Wuji, was impatient. Speak out.

Then he looked at the ministers of the court with a solemn face. "The old man's ugly words are ahead. I know you're all more or less related to the family. But this time, if anyone dares to spoil His Majesty's good deeds. Hugh blames the old man for not being emotional. “

Li Ren touched his head and smiled. "Actually, to put it bluntly, it's nothing. It is to desperately reduce the importance of food. ”

"Now the reason why the family is clinging to the grain and not letting go. It's nothing more than waiting for the official warehouse to run out of food. When the time comes, make a lot of money. ”

"Now, with cash-for-work, and Jiangnan to buy grain. The scarcity of grain is only a month away. As long as we have enough food for this month. Food prices will naturally come down. Solving the disaster is not a difficult task. ”

The ministers of the full hall listened quietly to Li Ren's eloquent conversation. From time to time, there was an expression of admiration on his face.

"It's not going to be a good month. Now, when the battle is full, the imperial court can take out fifteen days of food. The remaining fifteen days are a lot of money. No one can take it out except for the family. ”

"Could it be that you have a way to get the family to take the initiative to hand over the grain?" Fang Xuanling couldn't help but ask.

Li Ren said with a smile. "There is still a way. To put it simply, it's two words. Collect donations! Hold an unprecedented fundraising meeting and call on the family to donate food! ”

"Hehe, the family is a group of greedy people who eat people and don't spit out bones, how can you be impressed by a fundraising meeting? Even if His Majesty himself spoke, it was only 300 loads of grain donated by each family. Do you think you have more face than Your Majesty? ”

Li Ren explained with a smile. "It's certainly not a simple fundraiser. Rather, it is a conditional fundraiser. ”

"At the fundraising meeting, His Majesty made a decree to establish an immortal monument of merit outside the gate of the imperial city. All the food donated by the families is engraved on it. As long as the Tang Dynasty is not destroyed, this monument of merit will remain forever! ”

In an instant, a kind of civil and military minister was stunned in surprise.

Wei Gangjing was even more angry and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about." This group of selfish families watched the suffering of the victims and did not respond. If the court doesn't condemn them, it's just that. How can there be a reason to make meritorious contributions to them! ”

Li Ren smiled: "Lord Wei, you misunderstood, didn't you?" The merit monument is not so good! If you don't get it right, the merit monument will become a shame monument. ”

That's a good point!

In an instant, all the ministers understood what Li Ren meant. If a merit monument is established, it is impossible for the family to run short of food.

The reason why the family has stood for thousands of years. It is to rely on the good reputation of the usual business.

In a catastrophic year, they would only donate a few hundred loads of food. Their reputation is about to stink.

In order to gain more prestige, they will definitely rush to donate food. It's not too much to even sell your property to raise food!

This is the foundation of the family's eternal existence!

In an instant, all the ministers were excited. Full of praise for Li Ren's brilliant idea.

But Wei Gangjing still didn't understand. "Since you have such a brilliant plan. Isn't it okay to directly force the family to donate food? Why do you need to use cash-for-work to do so much? ”

"Lord Wei, the people of the family are not stupid! If you don't completely extinguish their hopes, they won't give enough food!

"When the time comes, in case they collude with each other and are complicit. Only half of the relief food was donated. Gone on face. ”

"And then sell the remaining half of the grain to the imperial court several times, what is the difference between this and not raising donations!"

Also. The family was not a fuel-efficient lamp, as long as they knew that the imperial court needed more food. It will definitely open its bloody mouth and tear off a few pieces of flesh fiercely.

In this way, the cash-for-work step must be taken. Otherwise, this locust plague would not have been so easy to overcome!

Li Ren looked at the ministers with different faces. Go on. "Therefore, we must buy enough food from Jiangnan as soon as possible. Even tomorrow will let out the wind. It is said that the grain in Jiangnan will arrive within half a month. ”

"The family is also capable, and it is bound to estimate that the court still has fifteen days of surplus food. As long as they don't dare to have the audacity to intercept the grain team halfway. There is no point in continuing to hold on to the food. ”

"When it comes to the fundraising conference, Your Majesty only needs to arrange a few families to be the trustees. Desperately raise the upper limit of the food donation of the merit monument. The rest of the families will definitely obediently donate all the food stored at home. ”

"You know, the more food is being laid, the cheaper it becomes. Rather than holding it in your hands and watching the value of food depreciate. It's better to donate all of them and fight for a good name that will last for a hundred years. ”

When Li Ren said this, all the ministers were extremely shocked!

Cash-for-work.

Jiangnan buys grain.

Spread false news.

Disaster Relief Conference.

One link after another, interlocking. The arrangement is thorough.

Let the family have great ability. I can't get rid of the fate of obediently donating food.

This young man is only a weak crown year, and he has such a rigorous and meticulous mind and plan.

It's really amazing.

At that moment, Fang Xuanling knelt on the ground and congratulated Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, this is possible! If you act according to the plan that Lee Ren said. The disaster can be solved! ”

"Hahaha......" Li Shimin laughed loudly. It's a blast.

A big stone in my heart is perfectly solved. Everything in front of me became pleasing to the eye.

Li Ren took advantage of Li Shimin's prosperity and hurriedly asked. "Your Majesty, look at this disaster relief method, the grass people have come up with it. This exile in Lingnan, the grass people don't have to go, right? ”

"Guilt? What culpability? You only have merit, where is the sin! Li Qinmin walked up to Li Ren's side, patted him on the shoulder cordially, and spoke affectionately.

"I have found out about the jade seal. It's a couple of naughty boys messing around. It has nothing to do with you. You just have to wait for the disaster relief to receive the reward, and no blame will fall on you. ”

Hehe......, when I took my top bag, all the fault was mine alone.

Now that I don't have to cover the bag, I don't have any guilt.

Li Shimin, do you still have any principles!

The ancients said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger. True, true.

This unprincipled court still wants me to be an official?

I'm afraid that ten lives are not enough to pay.

In an instant, Li Ren's heart made up his mind. Even if you starve to death, you will freeze to death if you sleep on the street. I don't eat Li Shimin's bowl of official rice.
