After coming out of the Hibiscus Garden, Gao Ming's mood finally calmed down, and he did not choose to go to Huaqing Pond, but went back to the palace directly.

In less than a stick of incense, Gao Ming appeared at the door of the imperial study, and when he saw him coming back, Liu Bing, who was giving a lecture to the little eunuchs, suddenly waved the Buddha dust in his hand.

"All of you go down!"

"Yes!"

After the little eunuchs went down, Liu Bing put the Buddha dust on his left hand, and then greeted Gao Ming with a smile on his face.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you are back, Your Majesty just planned to have someone pick you up?"

"Pick me up?"

In Gao Ming's opinion, with Li Shimin's temper, if there is nothing important, it will definitely not be called to him, so when he heard Liu Bing's words, he suddenly blinked in confusion.

"What's wrong? Isn't there something important? ”

"yes!"

As soon as his words fell, Liu Bing nodded.

"Last time, didn't Your Highness say that you wanted to brew some medicinal wine with the tiger? Last night, Qianniuwei beat two tigers and came back, and now he is still panting, and now it is so hot, His Majesty is worried that the tiger will stink when it dies, so he wants someone to pick you up. ”

“……”

In fact, after such a long time, Gao Ming had almost forgotten about it, and now after hearing Liu Bing's words, he thought about it.

Looking at Liu Bing, who was smiling all over his face, Gao Ming suddenly smacked his mouth.

"Okay, you tell me to go down and deal with the two tigers, except for the tiger whip, I only need the bones of the four legs, remember to shave all the sinew for me."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Liu Bing nodded hurriedly.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince, but what about those shaved tiger meats? Do you want to get the Shangshi Bureau......"

"No!"

Before Liu Bing finished speaking, Gao Ming immediately waved his hand.

"Tiger meat nourishes the spleen and stomach, invigorates qi, strengthens muscles and bones, my body is very strong so I don't need it, take it and distribute it to those soldiers who participate in tiger hunting, if you like it, you can also take a few catties to eat!"

In fact, Gao Ming didn't want tiger meat not because he was strong and didn't need it, but because tiger meat was really hard to eat, so he deliberately made up a reason.

However, Liu Bing didn't know this, so when he heard Gao Ming's words, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to Gao Ming.

"Thank Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince for reward!"

Seeing his overjoyed appearance, Gao Ming immediately smiled and nodded.

"Okay, they're all old acquaintances, you're welcome, by the way, someone was injured this time to catch the tiger?"

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, no one has been injured!"

Hearing Liu Bing say that no one was injured, Gao Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay if you don't have it, okay, just according to what I just said, except for the tiger whip and the four leg bones, the rest will be distributed to the soldiers who participated in the tiger hunting, by the way, the four long tiger teeth will also be left for me, okay, go down!"

"Yes!"

Liu Bing agreed and went down, while Gao Ming came directly to the door of the imperial study, and then knocked on the door.

"Old man, it's me, I'm in!"

After speaking, Gao Ming pushed open the door and walked in, at this time Li Shimin was holding a fold and was reading, seeing Gao Ming come in, he immediately put the fold down, and then smiled at Gao Ming.

"Gao Ming is back? Did Liu Bing tell you about the tiger? ”

"Anyway, I've let them deal with it!"

"That's good, sit down!"

"Hmm!"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming nodded suddenly, and then found a place to sit down.

Li Shimin also knew that Gao Ming was a master who would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so after he sat down, Li Shimin laughed again.

"You came to me this time because you have something to discuss with me, right?"

"Yes!"

Gao Ming was originally something, so naturally he was not ambiguous, and as soon as Li Shimin's words fell, he immediately nodded.

"My Datang has a strict hierarchy, and there are big and small official positions, and there are high and low honors, but I think that for the prosperity of Datang in the future, I suggest that the people should also be divided into a clear rank."

Gao Ming was not stupid enough to tell Li Shimin that everyone is equal, because this is simply impossible in Datang, so he simply did the opposite.

Sure enough, after hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin immediately became interested.

"Then tell me how the ranks of the people should be divided?"

"Yes!"

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming immediately stood up and bowed to him.

"According to my thoughts, in the future, the people of Datang will be divided into four grades: A, B, C, D, and at that time, this level will fully replace the previous Shinong industry and commerce!"

"Oh?"

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Shimin's interest suddenly became stronger, he simply put down all the government affairs in his hands, and then focused all his attention on Gao Ming.

"Go on!"

"Yes!"

Seeing Li Shimin's energetic appearance, Gao Ming's face also had a little more smile, and he immediately raised a finger towards Li Shimin.

"Let's talk about the first-class people, that is, the first-class people, I think that the farmers and industrialists should be included, because whether they are scholars, farmers, craftsmen and merchants, they are all talents that Datang needs, and I also want to add a profession, that is, soldiers!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately walked in front of Li Shimin, and then looked at him.

"In the case of guaranteeing land, this policy is originally correct, but with the increase of population, the land will inevitably decrease day by day, and there are drawbacks in this system."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin thought that this was indeed the truth, and he immediately frowned.

"What then?"

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, Gao Ming suddenly snapped his fingers.

"It's very simple, that is to implement the professional soldier system!"

"Professional soldiers?"

Li Shimin was the first to hear this term, and his face suddenly became a little more curious, looking at his inquiring gaze, Gao Ming laughed again.

"The so-called professional soldier means that in addition to being a soldier, he no longer participates in other chores, and he only needs to train well every day, so that the soldiers trained in this way must be stronger than the soldiers who are temporarily conscripted!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming found that Li Shimin frowned, and looking at this scene, Gao Ming laughed again.

"I know what you're worried about, it's nothing more than whether Datang's finances can afford professional soldiers, in fact, you don't have to worry, because with the collection of commercial taxes, our Datang's finances have been growing, so we can take our time, I believe that within ten years, our Datang should be able to have two million standing troops!"

"Hiss......"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin immediately gasped, and his face showed a look of disbelief.

"Two million? And is it still a standing army? ”

Today's Datang, the standing army is only more than 500,000, Rao is so, Li Shimin feels a little unable to support, and now when he heard Gao Ming say that Datang can raise two million standing troops within ten years, his expression suddenly changed.

Looking at Li Shimin's shocked look, Gao Ming smiled again and nodded.

"That's right, it's two million, you don't have to be so surprised, in fact, with my current income, without the treasury, I can feed 200,000 soldiers and horses with my own money alone!"

“……”

After listening to Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin was silent.
