Li Shimin has discussed the matter of open source more than once in the small meeting, but so far, most of the conclusions have been drawn that it will increase the burden on the people.

Therefore, as long as the final result is related to increasing the burden on the people, this proposal will be terminated immediately.

At present, the overall situation of the Tang Dynasty is poverty, and the root cause of poverty is that the people in the late Sui Dynasty were overburdened, resulting in a large number of people losing their land.

With the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, it stands to reason that this situation should change.

But there were decades of chaos between the two dynasties, and it was this period that made big things worse.

During the Wude period, nearly half of the people chose to become recluses.

The meaning of the existence of the hermit is that I do not enjoy any policies and treatments promulgated by the imperial court, but any policies promulgated by the imperial court have nothing to do with me.

Anyway, they are all landless people, so what can they do if they register and make a book? It is impossible for the land to return to their own hands, but they have to bear all kinds of taxes assessed by the imperial court every year, and they simply cannot afford it.

So the status quo is that the imperial court tried its best to hope that these hidden households could be re-registered, but the hidden households were unwilling in every way.

Although they can enjoy various benefits, compared with the two, as hermits, their living standards are better than those of the people of the Tang Dynasty, and they do not have to work or pay taxes.

If the imperial court has money, it can directly reduce the burden on the people, so that it can attract more hidden households to become the people of the Tang Dynasty again.

Advantage?

Population means competitiveness, combat effectiveness, and national strength.

Although Li Shimin has worked hard all his life, it has to be regretted that until the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the population of the Tang Dynasty at its peak did not exceed that of the Sui Dynasty.

"If the imperial court wants not to lack money, it is not possible to rely on a money bank, the current economy is agriculture-oriented, and most of the income of the imperial court comes from agriculture, the advantage of this model is stability, and the disadvantage is that the upper limit can be seen.

Through the Wanmin cloth shop and weaving mill, I saw another model, what I did was not new, at most because I was dissatisfied with the efficiency of the loom and invested a lot of money to improve, now it has an effect, the rest is nothing more than the integration of resources, the retail model to large-scale production, so that the cost is reduced, and the price is also lowered.

Instead, within 14 days of reopening, the operating income of Wanmin Cloth Store was nearly 17,000 yuan, excluding all expenses, at least half of the profits, is this just a few of us rich? Li Yuanjing incarnated as a figure like a military advisor of the Tang Dynasty, and he was a sophisticated person who taught Li Shimin an economic lesson.

Although it is not professional, the model of later generations is more or less known, relying on agriculture to become a world power? No matter how good it is, at most it will be the first place in the group at the bottom of the ranking.

"Isn't it?" Li Shimin was stunned, and was really surprised that a few people could get more than 8,000 yuan in half a month, and even if they wanted to share the profits, everyone could get one or two thousand yuan.

"Of course not, there are now more than 7,000 workers in the weaving mill, and these people are paid five cents a day, and the workshop is in charge of food, which is one hundred and fifty cents a month, and the workers can buy a piece of cloth every three months at half the market price of that month, and they can work for a year to ensure that everyone in the family has new clothes to wear every year.

A person calculates that it is 1,800 yuan a year, because the scale expansion is too rapid, and there is a shortage of labor, so now almost everyone in the Huangzhuang works in the weaving workshop, even if it is a child, they can get three yuan a day, and the family is calculated according to five people, and the annual income of two adults is 3,600 yuan, and the annual income of three children is 3,240 yuan.

A family of five, working in the weaving mill for a year, the net income is 6,840 yuan, they don't have to worry about the food and clothing at home, these workshops are responsible, people have money always want to change the life of the family, is it possible to keep all this money?

The money is just put at home, I'm afraid they won't be at ease, and the Wanmin cloth shop has tens of millions of dollars and nowhere to put it, so I thought of the money bank.

Since Buzhuang can allow thousands of families to have a net deposit of more than 6,000 yuan in a year, why can't it be otherwise?

A cloth village and a workshop are not painful for the imperial court, but what if there are a thousand or ten thousand such workshops in the Tang Dynasty? If the business of the workshop remains as it is, then the annual commercial tax paid to the imperial court will be more than 13 million yuan! ”

Shinong industry and commerce, the old concepts formed over thousands of years, Li Yuanjing did not expect to change Li Shimin's cognition in a day or two.

But at least when he does it himself, he just doesn't listen to other people's slander and make trouble.

As for making money, although it is true that he is a little poor as King Zhao, no matter how poor he is, he can't starve to death as King Zhao, right?

At least there is food as a guarantee, the reason why Li Yuanjing did this, is just to hope that he can live a more comfortable and modern life.

A modern person just went to ancient times, he wanted nothing, there was a backward situation everywhere, and Li Yuanjing couldn't adapt to it anyway.

Li Shimin was seriously thinking about Li Yuanjing's words, he didn't expect that Huangzhuang would be so rich now, more than six thousand yuan a year seems not much, but ordinary people can come up with one or two thousand yuan, otherwise there would not be so many people starving to death in a disaster year.

Li Yuanjing They made a lot of money, and the people also made a little money, and when the people have money, they naturally have to spend it, and spending it is equivalent to stimulating other industries.

Even if you don't spend it, if you deposit the money in the bank, the money bank will use it to lend or invest yourself, and the benefits generated will probably be unlimited.

"The money village can be done, but I want forty percent, you two percent, and the rest I will arrange, and the funds will be paid proportionally, and the specific operation will be handed over to you, but there is one point, the business tax of the money village is ten taxes and one, and the other is the workshop, which can also be continued, but there is one point, the recruited workers must be innocent, and the goods must also be sold to the innocent." Li Shimin thought about it and said.

Li Yuanjing smiled, Li Shimin's purpose was already self-evident.

This is to force those hidden households out, and if they continue to become hidden households, not only will they not have the opportunity to work in various workshops, but they will not be able to buy these goods at a low price.

Now there is only one cloth shop and you can't see anything, but what if all daily consumption is the same?

At that time, there are only two results waiting for them, either take the initiative to register their identities, or grit their teeth and accept the high-priced goods of the second-class dealers, but in this way, whether it is cost-effective or not is another arithmetic problem.

With the advent of the blast furnace, with the reform of agricultural tools, and the emergence of the composting method, the sum of these things has led to a great increase in the efficiency of cultivation, and the yield will also increase.

No matter how bad it is, you can still implement the tactic of even rain and dew, and each person only works half a day, leaving half a day for them to farm, all in order to increase the employment rate.

However, what Li Yuanjing didn't expect was that Li Shimin's move also had the effect of drawing salaries from the bottom of the kettle, and the hidden household was the root of the family's accumulation of wealth.
