Li Zhi was stunned when he heard it, since ancient times, no country can still generate income from wars, but there are many countries that have destroyed their own countries because of wars, if this Fang Xuanling comes back to life, hearing Han Yi's words, it is estimated that he will have to fall again, so many years of war, dare to love all the dog's belly.

Li Zhi initially adopted Han Yi's suggestion, and he was satisfied with the budget to reduce the treasury expenditure by half, who knew that there was still a million yuan to earn.

"What do you --- you say? Earnings? Not an expense? ”

Han Yi nodded affirmatively.

Li Zhi exclaimed, "How is this possible? ”

Han Yi said: "First of all, the grain and grass for this war are all supported by those merchants and landlords, and the treasury has not spent a penny, and after our army conquered Baekje and Goguryeo, the ministers confiscated their treasury and the money of local nobles and landlords. ”

Incredible!

It's incredible!

Li Zhi didn't believe it, so he quickly picked up the piece and looked at it carefully, if it was all expenses, of course, the more he looked at it, the more headache he had, but if he earned it, this mood would naturally be different.

But after reading it, Li Zhi felt even more incredible, because Han Yi gave an advance of one million guan in terms of rewarding the three armies and pensions, which is equivalent to earning two million guan, and said: "From ancient times to the present, wars cost money, how can you ...... this time." ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "Throughout the ages, there is no dynasty in the Central Plains that can beat our dynasty!" ”

Li Zhi laughed when he heard this, this kid is too good at talking. And he said, "Tell me specifically, what is going on?" ”

Han Yi said: "In fact, the reason is also very simple, has Your Majesty ever thought about it, whether it was the Xiongnu hundreds of years ago, or the Turks before, why did they repeatedly violate the border?" ”

Li Zhi frowned, and seemed to understand something.

"At the end of the day, it's all about money and manpower." Han Yi said: "It can be seen that war can produce benefits, not the first initiative of ministers, the difference is that the Turks and Xiongnu are poor and rob rich, and now they are ......." ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, and he couldn't say that he was robbing, which was against the demeanor of a great country in the Central Plains.

When Li Zhi saw Han Yi's expression, he couldn't help but be happy when he didn't understand anything.

Han Yi smiled embarrassedly and continued: "This is the battle to destroy the country, and this small boat is also three catties of nails, but these nails were taken away by the soldiers before, of course, this minister doesn't think it's wrong, but the minister thinks it can be standardized, after all, we are a state of etiquette, even if it's ......." He stopped again, and felt that when it came to interests, it was difficult to say that it was righteous and awe-inspiring, because this is plunder!

Li Zhi was angry and said with a smile: "You have a heart, right?" ”

"No, no, no, the minister really doesn't read much, and he is mixed in the market, and he really doesn't know how to say some things."

"Then you just say it, you are so secretive, it will only be more embarrassing, what about robbing, Goguryeo took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains and continued to expand northward, and today it deserves this report."

"Your Majesty."

Han Yi clenched his fists, completely relaxed, and said: "And this time, all the ministers are responsible for distributing the property, which are recorded in the accounts and can be seen, but these accounts were not visible before, and Your Majesty will feel surprised." Secondly, in the past wars, the land that was fought was generally distributed to the local people for cultivation, which would not have any benefit to the national treasury, but only contributed to the national security interests and the national territory.

And this time, we sold all the prisoners of war as slaves to merchants and landlords, as well as our nobles of the Tang Dynasty, and the number was still very large, and we moved all the nobles of Goguryeo and Baekje to the Central Plains, and sold the land they owned to the merchants, which was another amount of money. In addition, some local things that usually seem to be worthless, but when put together, they can be sold for a lot of money, for example, a tree is not valuable, but a mountain is very valuable, because the mountain forest can grow herbs and produce wood. Although Goguryeo and Baekje are small lands and do not have much arable land, not all of the raw materials used by merchants to make goods come from grain, and the demand is for many resources. ”

Li Zhi nodded again and again when he heard this, but he was even more confused, "Why is it so simple, no one has ever thought of it before. ”

Han Yi said: "Because there is no dynasty as prosperous as my Tang Dynasty, the minister is not a sycophant, but a fact." I don't have Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty, and the culture is inclusive. It is precisely because of this that although my Datang attaches great importance to agriculture, it does not suppress business. In the Han Dynasty, it wanted to sell, but the question was who could it sell to? What do people do with wood? What do you want a ranch for? The wood around him is enough to build a house, that's fine, the land of the Central Plains is fertile, can you go to the barren land in Liaodong to farm? Our landlords in the Central Plains are the most reluctant to leave their own one-third of an acre of land. But the merchant is different, the merchant is the circulation, and those who stay at home will definitely lose all their money, and the merchant needs wood to make goods, the more the better, the merchant can grow other without growing food. The Han Dynasty could only reward the defeated land to generals and county kings, but this would only lead to rebellion by kings, waiters, and generals.

But the policy of my Tang Dynasty is to hand over the wealth to the businessmen to manage, the army to the generals, and the administration to the government, everyone performs their own duties, and they are doing what they do best, the general has no food, no wealth, he can't make chaos, the government has no wealth, and there is no army, he can't do chaos, and the words of the merchants, although the merchants hold the wealth, they have no power and power, and they are a group of businessmen, not a businessman, and there is competition between the merchants, which also requires an effective balance between the government and the government, and the things they produce, They have to sell to the Central Plains, who can afford the people of Goguryeo, and then come, their hometowns are also in the Central Plains, and they will also return to the Central Plains, which is their base camp, and it is impossible for them to oppose the imperial court, so that these foreign lands will be stable. ”

Li Zhi's eyes lit up when he heard this, which he had never thought of before, and he couldn't help but applaud again and again, "If you can do this, it would be really good." ”

The emperor is most worried about those areas where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, which is not easy to control, especially the land of foreign people, it is even more difficult to control, you must send an army to station, then you have to send a general to command the army, and it is very common for the general to establish himself as a king, but if you sell the land to a group of merchants, it is equivalent to three points of military and government, finance, and administration, and if you want to establish yourself as a king, you must first hold all three in your hands, which is much better than the previous fetters policy.

And the Northwest businessmen have let Li Zhi see the effect, he also knows that this businessman is seeking benefits, then he needs a market, the Central Plains is the largest market in the world today, and the best goods are also from the Central Plains, without this market, the merchants have to die, not to mention that most of the merchants who go there are businessmen from all over the Central Plains, they are so rich, they will not stay there for too long, of course they have to come to the Central Plains to live, that place is too cold in winter, far less comfortable than the Central Plains, if you are in Chang'an, and you will order Goguryeo's men to rebel, Didn't you kill yourself?

Han Yi continued: "And Goguryeo has brought far more benefits to my Tang Dynasty, we have moved a large number of prisoners of war to the Central Plains, resulting in Goguryeo is now vast and sparsely populated, and wealth will overflow, then it must overflow to the Central Plains, and after these prisoners of war come to the Central Plains, they will build roads, rivers, and go to Lingnan to reclaim wasteland, etc., which will add a lot of wealth to our country." ”

When Li Shimin conquered the Turks, he moved the Turks to live in the Central Plains and gave them preferential treatment, and the Turkic resources were still controlled by the Turks, and they didn't have to pay taxes, otherwise, people wouldn't call him Tian Khan.

And Han Yi's words are not so merciful, because in these years, if you don't enslave others, you have to be enslaved, he is selling Goguryeo people to the Central Plains, letting them do the hardest and most tiring things, and at the same time transferring Goguryeo's wealth to the Central Plains, this is actually a kind of resource distribution, then of course this will be profitable.

But this is Goguryeo, so no one thinks it's inappropriate.

Li Zhi nodded with great satisfaction, this account was finally understood, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, when you went to Tuyuhun, Liu Renliang gave me a recital, he thinks that the state and county system should be established directly in Goguryeo and Baekje, instead of the capital protectorate, what do you think?" ”

Han Yi thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and said: "The minister is very much in favor, today's Goguryeo is different from the northern ethnic groups, we Central Plains people are doing business and living locally, so it should adopt the state and county system, if the capital protection system is adopted, the minister is afraid that those merchants will not be able to adapt to it, after all, they are all used to the state and county system." ”

The difference in the system directly marks the difference in the management method, which is to completely incorporate Goguryeo and Baekje into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, which is the same as the Central Plains. The northwest side is two systems in parallel, that is because the northwest is too big, and the local people are also accustomed to the capital protection system, the Tang Dynasty's strategy is to slowly replace the capital protection government with prefectures and counties.

In short, it's all about integration.

Li Zhi nodded and said, "I also very much agree with Liu Renliang's suggestion, and plan to keep Liu Renliang in the local area, what do you think about this?" ”

In fact, this piece of music was made by Han Yi to Liu Renliang, the purpose is to make Liu Renliang in the local area, Han Yi of course agreed, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, in fact, the minister also intends to suggest that Your Majesty let Liu Renliang stay there, because in the process, the Silla side has repeatedly shown dissenting intentions, and the minister thinks that Silla will be a hidden danger at that time, but at present, they are still our subject country, and we can only observe first."

In addition, there are also Khitan Eight and Jin Ya tribes over there, whether these tribes are loyal to my Tang Dynasty or not, it is still unknown, there is also a Wa country in the east, although it is vulnerable, but they sent troops this time, proving that their ambition is not small. Therefore, Goguryeo is actually a very important strategic position for my Tang Dynasty, although Liu Renliang was born in Wenchen, but in this march, he showed his ability to command the army, which can be described as both civil and military, with him over there, Liaodong has no worries. ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and said: "However, the minister thinks that if Liu Renliang is allowed to grasp it with one hand, then it will violate the state and county system, so the minister suggested that Dugu Wuyue should be allowed to command the troops locally, and Yuan Liehu should set up a civil security bureau in the local area to maintain law and order." ”

Li Zhi smiled when he heard this, why he often adopted Han Yi's suggestions, it was because Han Yi's suggestions were thinking about him everywhere, any policy was centered on him, supporting businessmen, Han Yi did not say that he wanted to advocate capitalism, but in order to balance those landlords, gentry, and share the taxes of the people, the implementation of new taxes in the northwest, the purpose was to further consolidate the central rule on the basis of the policy of restraint.

The same is true of this suggestion, which is also to spread the power as far as possible and not concentrate on one person, which is very necessary.

Talking about this, Li Zhi is really reluctant to Han Yi, as soon as Han Yi leaves, there is no such person who can help him share his worries so wholeheartedly, although Xu Jingzong is loyal, but in this regard, they are still not as good as Han Yi. But then again, if Han Yi wasn't going to leave immediately, would he still ask Han Yi about everything and adopt Han Yi's suggestion, which is really not necessarily, it's not that he doesn't trust Han Yi, but that Han Yi was too strong in the limelight some time ago, and he also handed over the administrative power to him, and no emperor would do this.

But now, Han Yi's resignation has been handed in, and he is about to return to his hometown to guard his father's filial piety, and Han Yi's reputation has also been affected to a certain extent, so of course Li Zhi has no scruples, and he is not afraid of Han Yigong's mastery, and he talked about it for a whole day, and basically adopted Han Yi's suggestion, gave Han Yi enough power, and let him deal with the aftermath.
