When Liu Bing was praying for Gao Ming outside the door, Gao Ming was sitting in the imperial study drinking tea.

"Gooo......"

Since entering the imperial study, Li Shimin has looked at Gao Ming without saying a word, seemingly wanting to use this method to put a little pressure on Gao Ming, so that he can realize his mistake as soon as possible and ask for his forgiveness.

This trick is often used by Li Shimin on other ministers, and the effect has always been very good, even the eldest grandson Wuji can't bear his "emperor's gaze".

But unfortunately, Gao Ming doesn't eat this set.

"Cut, when I was studying at school, the head teacher's eyes were more than yours, I didn't sleep soundly, and it was naïve to want to use such a gaze to make me submit......"

With this in mind, Gao Ming found a place to sit down, and then drank three cups of tea, until he found that there was no water in the teapot, he raised his head to look at Li Shimin.

"Old man, there's no water!"

Li Shimin: "......"

At this time, Gao Ming's eyes and tone were very similar to the beautiful boy in "Kung Fu" who ran out of water after washing his hair halfway, and there was a helpless indignation in his eyes, and the corners of Li Shimin's eyes twitched.

"You...... Isn't there anything you want to tell me? ”

"Uh......"

Looking at Li Shimin's constipated expression, Gao Ming suddenly scratched the back of his head, and then showed a sincere smile to Li Shimin.

"Hey, old man, have you eaten?"

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Shimin suddenly slapped the table and stood up, and then stretched out his trembling hand and pointed at Gao Ming.

"Shaft, you ......"

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to start going crazy, Gao Ming immediately raised his hands above his head.

"I surrender, I confess, you dissipate your anger, and you have something to say!"

“……”

Seeing Gao Ming's decisive surrender, Li Shimin's words that were about to be in his mouth suddenly choked in his throat, the corners of his mouth twitched again, and then snorted coldly.

"Hmph, then tell me, what are your sins!"

"Does being handsome count?"

"You ......"

Just as Li Shimin was about to be furious, he suddenly saw Gao Ming take out a piece of paper from his arms, and when he saw this scene, Li Shimin was stunned.

"What's in your hand?"

"Title deed!"

As he spoke, Gao Ming came to Li Shimin with a smile, and then handed him the paper full of words in his hand.

"As you can see, this is the title deed of the Datang Royal Club."

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Shimin was stunned.

"The title deed of the Tang Royal Club? What are you doing with this? ”

"For you!"

"Give it to me?"

Seeing Li Shimin's surprised look, Gao Ming immediately smiled and nodded.

"That's right, it's for you, and you can send a trustworthy person to take it over, and the Tang Royal Club will be yours in the future."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin's eyes immediately widened, and his eyes were full of shock.

Li Shimin knows the value of the Tang Royal Club very well, and it is precisely because he understands that he is so shocked.

In the past, when Li Shimin was still the king of Qin, he never found that he was short of money, because the money and grain were all given by the imperial court, and even Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji did not dare to deduct his money and grain.

But since he ascended the throne, he has found himself really poor.

Li Shimin remembered that as soon as the Xuanwumen Rebellion ended, the Turks invaded on a large scale, and Jieli and Tuli Khan led their troops to drive straight into Jingyang, which was only forty miles away from Chang'an, and the Beijing division was shaken!

At this time, the strength of Chang'an City was only tens of thousands, in order not to make Chang'an fall, Li Shimin had to resort to a suspicious strategy, and at the same time took out millions of worth of property to the Turks, forming the so-called "Weishui Alliance", so that the Turks withdrew and kept Chang'an.

In the second year of Zhenguan, Datang encountered a rare locust plague, which spread to several prefectures and counties in Jingzhao Prefecture, and millions of acres of fertile land were not harvested.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin, who had accumulated some people's strength, resolutely decided to send troops to the Turks, made Li Ji and Li Jing commanders, defeated the Turks in one fell swoop, and captured their leader Jieli Khan, and reported the great feud that was forced to form an alliance with Weishui......

It was not until this time that Li Shimin discovered that he was really poor, so poor that if he wanted to rebuild his dormitory, he had to quarrel with the ministers in the court.

And the saddest thing is that the fight is noisy, but the dormitory is still the same, I have to say, this is really a sad story.

In fact, Li Shimin also understands that today's Datang really has no money.

In the early days of the Tang Dynasty, the policy of light taxation was to pay light taxes, and the population was only more than 3 million households, so the annual tax revenue was only about 4 million guan, and after excluding officials and various expenses, there were only less than 2 million guan left.

What if the money is used to repair the palace, but in the event of a war or disaster? Is there a tax to be levied? If taxes are raised, will it repeat Yang Guang's mistakes?

Li Shimin will also think about these questions, so in the more than ten years since he ascended the throne, he has paid to repair the main hall of the palace, the temple of his ancestors, and the Zhaoling Tomb where the eldest grandson queen is buried, but he has not repaired his own bedroom.

For the people of Datang, 10,000 guan is a huge amount of money, but for Li Shimin, 100,000 guan is also a drop in the bucket.

But millions of guan are different, especially one million guan per year, which makes Li Shimin see the hope of rebuilding the dormitory.

Looking at the deed in his hand, Li Shimin couldn't help but gasp.

"Shhh...... This Tang Royal Club can earn millions of yuan a year, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a chicken that can lay golden eggs, are you willing to give it to me? ”

Looking at Li Shimin's shocked appearance, Gao Ming suddenly smiled and nodded.

"Of course, from now on, he is yours, you send a trustworthy person to take over, and when the time comes, I will let Wu Mei hand over everything in the club to him."

Hearing Gao Ming's personal confirmation, a trace of complexity suddenly flashed on Li Shimin's face.

Li Shimin made his fortune by robbing, he first robbed Yang Guang's country with his father Li Yuan, and then he snatched the country from Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng's hands, so the word "robbery" has accompanied Li Shimin for most of his life.

But now, he is reluctant to rob it anymore, because the object is Gao Ming, and Li Shimin is unwilling to rob his son's things, because it makes him feel a little embarrassed.

It was only after a half-ring that he spat out three words.

"Why?"

Gao Ming didn't seem to notice Li Shimin's expression, and when he heard his question, Gao Ming suddenly smacked his lips, and then smiled at him.

"Old man, the sheep has the grace of kneeling, the crow has the righteousness of feeding, I remember your kindness to me, and it should be time for me to repay, the Tang Royal Club, even if it is my pocket money to honor you!"

"Honor my pocket money?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin didn't know why, and his eyes suddenly moistened.

In order not to let Gao Ming see his embarrassment, he quickly stood up and turned around, and then let out a long sigh.

"Alas, the sheep has the grace of kneeling and the crow has the righteousness of feeding, well said, Gao Ming, don't go back at noon, stay, let's have a drink."

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, Gao Ming immediately laughed.

"Hey, okay, you say!"
