Chapter 577: The Benefit of the World
"Your Majesty!"
When the ministers were happy again, Wei Zheng stood up with a black face again.
"Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely impossible!" Wei Zheng looked excited.
"Oh?" Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly.
This Wei Zheng is really getting more and more ignorant of current affairs!
"Your Majesty, although this thing is beneficial to the people and the people, but this thing must be a precious and valuable thing, if it is paved with the entire road of the Tang Dynasty, it will not cost a lot of manpower and material resources, work the people and lose money, and deplete the treasury, what is the difference between this and Yang Guang digging a canal?" Wei Zheng said loudly.
"The minister thinks that the most important thing in today's affairs is to appease the people, cultivate their voices, and push the new crops to the whole Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, so that the people of Datang will no longer endure the suffering of hunger, which is the right way of the Tang Dynasty and the way of the monarch, Your Majesty!" Wei Zheng said.
"Your Majesty, if you build a lot of construction, the people will have no livelihood, and there will be no personnel to produce at that time, and Datang will be in danger!" Wei Zheng's expression became even more excited.
Li Tai couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly, this Wei Zheng is worthy of being the god of the Tang Dynasty, he is really scolding the air, and he has finished scolding the emperor.
When the ministers heard this, although this was hateful, what they said was indeed very reasonable.
This Zhenguan mud has such a miraculous effect, and the raw materials are also relatively rare, so even if Li Shimin gives the formula to himself, he may not be able to make it in large quantities.
So, isn't this thing chicken?
Some quickly stepped forward again.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Dr. Wei said is not wrong, what I need in Datang is to settle the people, not to build a large number of buildings."
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the world is people-oriented, and the people's livelihood comes first."
"The people regard food as the sky, and the ministers think that the livelihood of the people in the world should be the top priority of Datang today."
ββ¦β¦β
"Father, son-in-law also agree with Dr. Wei's words." Li Chengqian stood up, bowed his head, and said: "I don't know who is so flattering to my father, confusing the Holy Hearing, bewitching the Holy Will, and letting my father make such an expensive thing, if my Datang really uses the power of the whole country to build this thing, my Datang is in danger!" β
"Father, the person who dedicates this thing to his father, his heart can be punished!" Li Chengqian said loudly.
"Your Majesty, the prince's words are really right, this thing cannot be made!"
"Those who confuse Your Majesty in this way have bad intentions!"
"Although this thing is good, it will cost the country's strength, which is a disaster!"
ββ¦β¦β
Many people around Li Chengqian stood up and said.
These officials in the court, especially those with five surnames and seven wangs, can change their faces faster than flipping through a book.
They have the final say on the good, and they have the final say on the bad.
Li Shimin smiled faintly, then looked at Li Tai and said, "Qingque, do you say this thing is precious?" β
"Precious is precious, but not expensive." Li Tai smiled calmly and said, "It was I who dedicated this thing to my father." β
"Li Tai, you are so vicious! You're trying to put my Datang in a situation where I can't recover! Li Chengqian pointed at Li Tai angrily, his fingers trembled!
"Wei Wangtai, what kind of intention do you have, you are so instigating the king, is it possible that you are dissatisfied with the people of my Tang Dynasty living and working in peace and contentment?" Wei Zheng asked.
"Wei Wangtai, why are you like this?"
"Ill-intentioned, ill-intentioned."
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Wei is really harboring evil intentions!"
ββ¦β¦β
A group of people pointed their guns at Li Tai again, no matter what the truth of the matter was, and first blamed Li Tai.
Especially those Li Chengqian and Li Ke's people, they are even more like chicken blood.
The large courtyard of the entire Ministry of Industry is really lively.
"Hey, hey, I said how many of you are dogs? Those who don't let people yell and bark after they finish their words are really like those mad dogs and wild dogs on the street. Li Tai gave them a disdainful look.
Since you don't give me face, I don't bother to give you face.
Even if you are a courtier.
"I said, let me finish speaking, and when I finish speaking, are you judging me for my ability?" Li Tai spread his hands and said: "This thing is made of clay, lime and some minerals, in fact, although the cost is higher, but it will not cause a ripple in Datang's finances." β
"On the contrary, it can also create wealth for Datang, just imagine, we dig the clay from the ground, put it into a kiln to dry, and then grind it into powder, and then ......prepare it with lime powder," Li Tai simply said the raw materials of cement.
"That's it...... It's as simple as that? Wei Zheng couldn't help but say, obviously not believing it.
At this time, the samurai stood up and said, "It's really so simple, and what is consumed is just some manpower, and the raw materials can be found everywhere, and they are not expensive." Moreover, a few dozen people can pave a road without spending a lot of people. β
"In this way, it is indeed a blessing to the world." Fang Xuanling couldn't help but say.
"Father, this thing is so simple, what ...... Will that flow into Goguryeo and other countries, wouldn't it ......" Li Ke glanced at Li Tai, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
What an enemy!
Everyone understands that what Li Shimin wants to fight most is Goguryeo, if this kind of cement flows into Goguryeo and consolidates and widens the walls of Goguryeo, then the person who created this thing will not become the enemy of the world?
"Are you stupid or are you naΓ―ve? Even if the Goguryeo people knew what this kind of thing was made of, they would be able to make it? The whole world knows that ceramics are made of clay, is it possible that people in the whole world will not buy ceramics? Without a recipe, even if you are given a large field of clay, you may not be able to make a good bowl! Li Tai snorted coldly and said, "Even if Goguryeo can use this thing to build a high city wall, we also have weapons to make that city wall useless!" β
"Yes, yes." Li Shimin was very happy and said: "I have decided to share this thing with all my courtiers, and in the future, I will not only build roads, but also use this thing to build countless cities in the grassland and desert." β
"When the time comes, there will be Tang people everywhere on the grassland, and there will be my Tang city in the desert, and the whole world will truly belong to my Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said excitedly.
"However, I have said in advance that whoever intends to make a profit from this thing must give one-tenth of it to the local county to pave the road, and the rest can be sold to the local people."
"However, we must remember that we must not buy and sell by force, but must buy and sell fairly and at a fair price...... Li Shimin gushed endlessly.
First of all, I will make an appointment with these fellows for three chapters, so that these fellows will not use the name of this time to harm the people.
