Sun Xiangfu himself didn't realize how much he had changed the world, and sometimes, changing the mind of a more important person was enough to make a world change, and Li Chengqian was such a person.

During his entire teenage years, he was influenced by Sun Xiangfu, and Shanyang's two-year study and politics stereotyped his relatively novel thinking mode, and unconsciously, some ideas similar to Sun Xiangfu would emerge.

There was almost no objection, and the civilian-official clique headed by Xiao Yu and Wen Yanbo agreed with Li Chengqian, as for the military bigwigs in Chang'an, it was Li Chengqian's father-in-law, Hou Junji, who was the first person to lead the troops in the case of Li Jing retreating to the second line and Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong Suwei by Li Shimin's side, as for Li Ji and Cheng Yanjin, they are now holding the official positions of governor of the state highway and the governor of the border town, and they belong to the magistrates who cannot interfere with the central management.

Therefore, this spending plan was put on the agenda without any obstacles.

However, the proposal to open immigration to all Gentiles is yet to be discussed.

Because, now there is a trend of Hu people from various countries in the Western Regions pouring into Datang, if the generous resettlement policy is open to them at this time, it is foreseeable that those poor people in the Western Regions will pour into Datang like refugees.

Come to Datang, not to mention being able to live in an environment where there is no war, and in their opinion, they can live in a brick house that can be called a mansion, plant high-yield fields, and have the opportunity to get a variety of high-paying jobs, which are all very tempting for them, which is basically the life that ordinary civilians dream of, who would not be happy to come!

Xiao Yu first raised an objection, in the Tang Dynasty the construction of the new countryside has not been fully completed, and even, when many places are still in the poverty stage, so many resources should not be invested in those Fanbang Hu people, in addition, Datang is now unable to meet the hard conditions for the resettlement of a large number of foreign population, first of all, the officials are not enough, will not be able to manage, don't look at Li Shimin last year's imperial examination when the number of scholars is quite large, but the Tang Dynasty is now too large, too many states and counties, once dispersed, it will be thin, As for the Hu people in the Western Regions, who have a large gap in language and culture, if there is not enough manpower to strengthen management, it is easy to cause chaos.

However, Wen Yanbo has a different opinion, and he has been committed to ethnic integration all his life, and he feels that this immigration policy should be implemented strategically.

First of all, he put forward the suggestion of allowing those wealthy businessmen with a certain net worth to immigrate to the Tang Dynasty to naturalize in Datang, and a benchmark can be set, for example, there is a deposit of more than 1,000 yuan in the Datang bank, or there is an industry with a scale of 100 people in Datang, or the purchase of shops, houses, fields and other conditions worth 10 million yuan, etc., meet one of them, you can be naturalized, these rich people, after joining the Tang Dynasty, not only will not bring a burden to the finances, but also greatly increase the financial and tax revenue of the imperial court, and, It wasn't too big at first.

The second is to allow the people of Fanbang who have reached a certain level of Chinese proficiency to join the Datang nationality and enjoy the resettlement treatment of the second-class citizens of the Tang Dynasty.

This can make those ordinary people in the Western Regions who are eager to get rid of poverty see hope, and they can also make greater efforts to promote the Chinese language and Han culture in Fanbang, and Chinese can not be learned in a day or two, so this can just give the imperial court some buffer time.

Two or three years later, many Hu people in the Western Regions had almost learned Chinese, and the Tang Dynasty's official management system had also been strengthened.

His suggestions convinced Xiao Yu, and at the same time made Li Chengqian praise him, if Sun Xiangfu was in Chang'an, he would definitely praise it, the wise men of ancient times were really not vegetarians, they all had a strong political vision.

The matter of spending money and the matter of immigration belong to the aspect of government affairs, and Li Chengqian now has full power to dispose of it, and the two prime ministers and deputy prime ministers of the political affairs hall and several ministers who stayed in Chang'an also agreed, so these two plans quickly entered the implementation stage.

In late October, when Li Shimin took a big boat and slowly returned to Chang'an from Weishui, which had entered the winter dry period, he found that the balance of finance and taxes in the treasury this year was not even one million guan, this was not the first year of Zhenguan, two or three million guan a year, and he could also support it for a year.

Moreover, there was another thing that surprised him, that is, the subordinates of the household department, there is another yamen called the "Immigration Bureau", the chief is the Langzhong level of Zhengwupin, and he will also send personnel to the foreign affairs yamen set up by the Anxi Dadu Protectorate and the Ministry of Rites, this is a big matter of setting up an administrative yamen for the imperial court, Li Chengqian actually did it himself, and the political affairs hall has been approved with a seal, but when I think about it, I have given him the right to dispose of government affairs before, and there is really no reason to blame him.

After seeing Li Chengqian's spending plan in the imperial study, Li Shimin was silent for a long time, he actually didn't, and even said that he couldn't raise an objection, because every penny of Li Chengqian's money was spent very reasonably.

First of all, the first big piece, he spent on military cultural education, starting next year, all soldiers in service in the Tang Dynasty need to receive cultural education for 20 days a month, no less than two hours a day, within two years, to eliminate illiteracy, within five years, general-level military attachés, must have a certain level of education, and, after two years, will no longer recruit illiterate enlistment.

If this article is placed in the past, it is absolutely impossible to achieve, because the workload is too large, Datang currently has an army, but more than one million people, of which, the minority young and strong accounted for more than forty percent, such as Andong, Anxi, Annan, Anbei Fourth Army, as well as Ningchuan Road, Lingnan Road, and other border areas with more garrisons, are all ethnic minority young and strong occupy the main body, and most of them speak Chinese very well, let alone recognize Chinese characters, of course, even if it is the Han sergeant of the Sixteenth Guard, the literacy rate is only more than one percent, That is to say, more than ninety percent of the people in the whole army need to receive education, more than one million people, and these people are still rigid in their thinking, and it is more difficult for them to read and read than to severely discipline them or even physically punish them.

However, the situation is different now, with the promotion of the art troupe, the enthusiasm of those ethnic minority soldiers to learn Chinese is very high, and the speed is also very fast, and the cultural and educational things such as pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and books, Datang can be very cheap to manufacture, as long as under the propaganda of the art troupe, let them know the importance of reading and literacy, and then stimulate them with certain interests, it is not impossible to meet Li Chengqian's requirements.

After all, with Chinese pinyin and simplified characters, the difficulty of teaching is much simpler than before, before the history of Weinan thorn has been specially opened for adult people to recognize and write training courses, a worker, only need to go to the class to study for an hour every day after work, half a year to a year, can have a certain writing ability, in society, as long as it is not to participate in the writing work, it is basically enough.

Of course, the most crucial reason for promoting this education is that with the progress of various weapons and equipment in the Tang Dynasty, soldiers must already master a certain amount of cultural knowledge before they can play a role on the battlefield.

During this time, Li Shimin did not study the booklet left by Zhao Long, as a master of the art of war, he can naturally understand the power of these tactics and tactics, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as invincible, because it pursues zero casualties and annihilates the enemy in an all-round way.

However, this method of warfare also has shortcomings, that is, the requirements for generals and soldiers are too high, almost all soldiers need to have a very high level of arithmetic, and they also need to understand all kinds of complex orders, so that they can be clear at a glance and respond quickly, which is simply impossible to do in ancient times, however, the group of people under Zhao Long did it, you know, they were originally just the young men of the Yiren and Fangren tribes recruited by Zhao Long in Lingnan.

Of course, what he didn't know was that the reason why the sailors and crews under Zhao Long were so strong was because they had nothing else to do in the course of a few years of sailing.

The second largest part of the expenditure is infrastructure, Jiangnan Province, as the largest state highway in Datang except for several border prefectures, has the largest amount of construction of new rural areas and roads, waterways, and irrigation ditches.

In addition, the coastal states and counties want to promote the people's livelihood and welfare projects, the imperial court needs to give them a better infrastructure environment, and the investment is naturally not small, just these projects, with a budget of more than 20 million yuan.

After that, it is the follow-up construction of Jiangling City and the development project of Shannan Province, more than one million laborers, food and drink, salary, tool wear, and the monthly expenditure is several million guan, as long as five or six months of construction, and the total cost is also more than 10 million guan, the eldest grandson Wuji wants to develop all the three counties of Chuyang, Jianli, and public security this year, and after the development of these three counties, they are all large counties with a cultivated land area of 100,000 mu and hundreds of thousands of mu, and can accommodate more than 40,000 households.

Thinking about the current prosperity of Jiuyuan County, as well as the counties such as Jinan and Zhongxiang that are about to enter prosperity, Li Shimin feels that this money is very well spent.

Then, the depressed Li Shimin sat on the big chair in the imperial study in a daze, because he found that he had nothing to do, perhaps, he could still flip through the war report of the Japanese State! It's a pity that the stable households of the emperor of the Wa Kingdom were all given to him by Zhang Gongjin, and the war over there, where will there be any accidents, but it is just some Zhang Gongjin for his subordinate soldiers to show their merits, as well as the report on the gold and silver mine assets collected in the Wa State.

Wang Deyong appeared in the imperial study at a very timely time and reported, "Your Majesty, Yan Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry would like to invite you to visit the Daming Palace. ”

"Daming Palace has been repaired?" Li Shimin asked in surprise.

Wang Deyong replied with a smile, "Not so quickly, the main palace building will not be completed until early next year, and the renovation time will not be short, and it will be completed by the end of next year at the earliest." Yan Shangshu wants to invite you to watch the harem villa area built along the Taiye Pool, the decoration over there has been completed, you can relocate, the Emperor Taishang has previously proposed to the inner chamberlain to move over, if the harem as a whole begins to relocate, after the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Industry will begin to renovate the vacant Tingting, the Imperial Garden and other places, this year, the animals transported from all over the Fanbang, but there are as many as thousands of species, placed in many places in the city, the people's call for the zoo is very high, the Ministry of Industry wants to start building early. ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded and said, "It's okay left and right, let's go and have a look!" ”
