The slave thing is hard to solve.

It is never easy to plunder someone else's property.

And some people don't care how much you pay for their slaves, they probably just like the feeling of enslaving those slaves, and you deprive them of that feeling, will they be willing?

Xu Maogong and Eldest Sun Wuji are still arguing, but obviously nothing will come of it.

Nothing would have come of this matter if there had been no better solution.

The eldest grandson Wuji and the others retreated, and the imperial study was quiet again.

Li Yu decided to put this matter down first, because for a while, he couldn't think of a better idea.

He sent someone to call Jia Yanfu, and the matter of Chang'an needs Jia Yanfu to go.

Soon, Jia Yanfu came to the palace.

"Holy Lord, do you have any commands?" "Fang Xuanling is doing things in Chang'an City, but I am worried that he will not be able to handle the affairs between businessmen, so I want you to go to Chang'an City to assist him, and build the east and west cities of Chang'an City, in order to prosper Chang'an, there are some preferential treatment for those merchants, and there are all kinds of soaps, drunken dreams and death, etc., all of which must slowly move to Chang'an, these things can attract a large number of businessmen to come, whether it is from our Tang Kingdom or the Western Regions."

Hearing that he wanted to go to Chang'an City by himself, Jia Yanfu did not hesitate at all, as a businessman, he had long been accustomed to running around, Chang'an City, there was already some of his business, and now there is nothing strange about going there.

"Rest assured, after the minister goes, the matter of Chang'an City will be resolved."

Speaking of this, Jia Yanfu suddenly asked: "Holy Lord, after hearing about the murder of slaves, it has a great impact on the capital?" ”

He just asked casually, and didn't mean anything else. Li Yu nodded, and then sighed again: "Yes, the slave matter is not easy to solve, I want to abolish slaves, prohibit the people of Tang State from trading slaves, and give slaves legal status, but slaves are the property of those slave owners, and it is not easy for them to give up, and the imperial court does not have so much money to redeem these slaves, even if they are redeemed, there is no more money for them to survive." ”

The reason for everything is money, although the Tang State is not poor, but to be honest, it is not an easy thing to solve the food, clothing, housing and transportation of such a large group of slaves.

Li Yu replied casually, but he didn't expect Jia Yanfu to give an idea, but after he said this, Jia Yanfu smiled: "Holy Lord, what's so difficult about this, it's just a matter of money." ”

It seems that for Jia Yanfu, money is not a problem at all, Li Yu smiled bitterly: "Jia Aiqing, this is not a small amount of money, my court can't take it out, and there is still the matter of Chang'an City." "Holy Lord, buy all the slaves at once, the court naturally can't afford this money, but every slave is valuable, the Holy God can stipulate the price of each slave, let the slave owner convert his slaves, and then let the court give them a note, the money can be returned to them in batches, and these slaves who have been freed, the court can send them to work, the income from their work, the converted wages, will be deducted from the money spent by the court for them, when they make enough money for the court, they will return their freedom." Jia Yanfu said this, Tang Yu was shocked when he heard it, this method sounded very, because the imperial court did not pay at all, it was equivalent to a white wolf with empty gloves, first asked for the slaves from the hands of those slave owners, and when the slaves themselves made money, the court returned this part of the money to the slave owners there.

But even if this is a means of a white wolf with empty gloves, it is really possible.

In this way, the problem of insufficient funds in the imperial court can be completely solved, and so many slaves to work, and the problem of employing people can also be linked, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

In the matter of money, businessmen still have more means, to make Xu Maogong and others think about it, and they may not be able to come up with it if they want to break their heads.

"Jia Aiqing's method is really good." Li Yu walked up in the imperial study room excitedly, he, a person who had studied economics in later generations, did not expect this.

In fact, this is the same as the fact that later generations speculated in houses, taking out a loan to buy a house, and repaying the loan after selling it to earn the difference.

Empty glove white wolf, but all huge business, basically empty glove white wolf, because the amount of money involved is too large, you can't bear it, you have to use other people's money.

Jia Yanfu is a person who flexibly uses business experience, and Li Yu is excited.

------------------

Jia Yanfu hurried to Chang'an, and he didn't care about the affairs of the state.

And on the morning of his departure, in the court, Li Yu once again brought up the matter of slaves. "I want to free the slaves, as long as they want to restore their free body, they can be restored, the court will redeem them for them, if there are slaves who feel that their masters are good to them and are unwilling to leave, I am not reluctant, they can still get legal status, and the future masters are not allowed to them

Fight and kill, and kill them, and still pay for their lives. "Li Yu knows that although the slaves are to be freed, many things must be treated differently, some people are very good to the slaves, and the slaves don't want to leave their masters, so you can't break them up, so this is all voluntary, but although it is voluntary, the owners of the slaves must not interfere, and they

Although he is still a subordinate to his master, he has a legal identity.

After Li Yu finished saying this, the hall was suddenly in an uproar and discussions.

"Holy Lord, it takes a lot of money to redeem a slave, this is ...... I'm afraid the court can't afford it, so please think twice about it, don't act rashly. ”

This matter involves the interests of many people in the court, although the court is willing to pay, but this price is definitely cheaper than the price in the market, and they do not want to lose these slaves.

There was so much that a slave could do for them, and some beautiful female slaves could give them physical pleasure that they didn't want to lose.

Therefore, after the eldest grandson Wuji stood up, everyone else also came forward.

"Yes, Holy Lord, the imperial court can't afford to pay such a large sum of money."

"Holy Lord, don't let my Tang State treasury be empty because of such a thing."

"Please think twice......

“…………”

Opposition voices came and went, Xu Maogong stood on the main hall, but he didn't dare to support it easily, because these people were right, there was no money, how to redeem those slaves.

But at this time, Li Yu said word by word: "The court redeems themselves for them, and if they have no money, they will make IOUs, and I will redeem them too, and whoever dares to stop them will be killed." "Scoundrel, everyone was immediately stunned by Li Yu's tricks.
