In the next two days, Wang Haoran did not go to Suzaku Street to see the excitement, thinking that he would stay for a few more days and wait until the celebration was over to discuss oil exploitation with Li Shimin. However, he has not been idle in the past few days, and the hundred talents screened by Enkota before chose to come to worship the mountain at this time, and those people generally come to the door in groups of three or five, and Wang Haoran has to meet several times a day.

This day was a bit unusual, and more than a dozen students came at once.

After some small talk, a tall young man brought up a topic: "Master Wang, the student Guo Ziyi, is from Chang'an." Some time ago, the establishment of charities in the imperial court was in full swing, and we have often paid attention to this matter, especially for the matter of running newspapers, the funds raised by charities and where they are used will be published in the newspapers. Recently, however, the students heard that a minister of the DPRK and China had proposed to His Majesty that only the top three donations should be published in the newspaper on the grounds of saving money. We think that this move is very inappropriate, and it is even possible to destroy the charity, I wonder if Master Wang thinks so? ”

These people originally wanted to call Wang Haoran a teacher, because their most important "life examination paper" was reviewed by Wang Haoran, but they all felt that Wang Haoran was still young and did not dare to be disrespectful, so they called Wang Shi, which meant Teacher Wang.

"If the reputation of the charity is ruined because of some corrupt people, and the charity is ruined, the pity is the people who are waiting for the charity to help and hope that the charity will build more schools so that their children can go to school!"

Wang Haoran is deeply touched by the consequences of corruption in charities, and at this time, Datang is different from later generations, there are many charities in later generations, and Datang has only such one, if even this one is destroyed, the consequences will be much more serious, so Wang Haoran can be said to hate the corruption of charities.

"The king is worried about the country and the people, and we admire it." Guo Ziyi said, "We have also discussed this matter before, and we all feel that this move can be described as a disaster for the country and the people, but we and others are soft-spoken, so I hope that Wang Shi can come forward to stop it." ”

"Of course, this is to be stopped, and I will enter the palace to meet Your Majesty later." Wang Haoran thought that he had planned to go to the palace today to talk to Li Shimin about oil, so he simply talked about it by the way.

"Wang Shi is righteous!" Seeing that Wang Haoran was so concerned about this matter, this group of students immediately decided to enter the palace to find His Majesty's theory that day, and they were immediately in awe, and they all got up and saluted Wang Haoran.

In the afternoon, Wang Haoran entered the palace. When Wang Haoran talked about oil, Li Shimin showed great interest, and he still clearly remembered Wang Haoran's argument that stone paint caused war.

"You mean it's time to mine the stone paint?" Li Shimin asked.

"Yes, the courtier has already asked people to start all the preparations. However, if this matter is to be planned for the long term, it is not easy to do without the participation of the imperial court, so the younger brother wants to discuss with His Majesty, whether the imperial court wants to join and develop together? "Wang Haoran must have the ability to develop oil by himself, but if the court wants to buy shares in the future, it will be too cheap for the court, if so, it is better to pull the court in from the beginning, so that the cost of all aspects, the court will have to share it evenly, right?

"Do you have a suitable cooperation plan? Although I also intend to develop stone paint, but the ministers of the court and the central government have a lot of criticism, they feel that for the time being, the development of stone paint can only give the people one more fuel to make lanterns, which is suitable for businessmen to do, if there is no other meaning, the imperial court is not very suitable for involvement, before the imperial court was involved in various businesses, there are many ministers of the court said that the imperial court is becoming more and more like a huge organization of traders. Therefore, before the imperial court intervenes in the development of stone lacquer, you must have enough reasons to convince the ministers of the court. Li Shimin said a little helplessly, the court is still the court after all, and you can't just think about making money. Even if Wang Haoran previously threw out the statement that stone paint can cause war, for now, this is no different from the Arabian Nights that firewood on the mountain can cause war.

"This ...... There is really no way to say clearly, the future can only be roughly predicted, before the development of fuel power, and even for a long time after the development, the main role of stone paint is only to extract some fuel. ”

"Then there is no way, your vision is different from other people's, all along, what you predicted can be realized one by one, this time I also believe in your prediction, but the ministers in the court can't understand it, and I can't go my own way. However, if you mine by yourself, if you have any difficulties, just mention it to me, I will try to make it easier for you, and that's all I can do. Li Shimin thought that Wang Haoran came to the door because of the mining of stone paint, and Wang Haoran asked him.

"Then the courtier brother has thanked Your Majesty first!" Favors are a science, there is nothing more cost-effective than owing Li Shimin favors, only if you owe Li Shimin favors, Li Shimin will be at ease with you, if you make Li Shimin owe you favors, this is not necessarily a good thing. Therefore, even if Wang Haoran had nothing to help Li Shimin in the matter of mining stone paint, and even thought about Li Tang, Wang Haoran still decisively accepted Li Shimin's feelings.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing for my brother." After discussing the matter of stone paint, Wang Haoran mentioned the matter of the charity, "Forgive the younger brother for trespassing, the younger brother heard that His Majesty intends to publish only the three people who donated the most money in the newspaper, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

"It is true that newspapers in various parts of Datang publish three pages of newspapers every month, and in the middle of ten days, the number of donors is large, if you record them one by one, you can publish them every time, so the cost is huge, so only the first three are published each time." Li Shimin explained.

"Your Majesty, are there any other countermeasures?"

"Haha...... Are you worried that someone will make a profit from this? Don't worry about this, every newspaper will register the donation details, and the people of Datang can go to check it at any time, who can do it fake? Li Shimin said disapprovingly.

"As the saying goes, there are policies and countermeasures, and it is impossible to completely eradicate favoritism and malpractice. The money raised by the charity is all a kindness of the people of Datang, and it is also a relief fund for the poor people. If this chills the hearts of the people, I am afraid that even if the people can still have sympathy in the future, there will be no one willing to donate anymore, and this wind will definitely destroy the charity. Charity is a major event for the benefit of the country and the people, and it is not too prudent to look at it, so the ministers think that in addition to the people can check the donation details at any time, it is also necessary to strengthen supervision, and then introduce relevant laws and regulations, and adopt a zero-tolerance attitude towards corruption. Wang Haoran was full of anger as soon as he arrived at some charities in later generations, and he never wanted Datang to repeat the mistakes of the past.

"This punishment is too severe, isn't it?" Li Shimin doesn't know why Wang Haoran hates corruption and charity so much, Datang is sparsely populated, everyone is like a baby, from his accession to the throne to the present, no more than ten people have been beheaded in Datang! "It is feasible to introduce relevant policies, which Ma Zhou also proposed to me, and I have already asked people to start drafting regulations, and as for the severity of the punishment, we still need to consider it."

Since Li Shimin already had an idea, Wang Haoran was inconvenient to say anything more on this issue, so he changed the topic and said: "There is also about the newspaper report donation, many donors are mainly for fame, if only the top three are published, then there must not be many people who have the strength and are willing to compete for this reputation, and the younger brother thinks that it can be expanded to the top ten, and it will be divided into each region, each issue, every quarter, every year, and every issue, every quarter, and every year in the whole Datang, so that There are more names that can compete, and there are naturally more people who are willing to compete for these titles. ”

"That's a good idea!" Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he felt that officials were not as good at calculating as businessmen after all.

"Haoran, there's something I want to hear from you." After discussing the matter of charity, Li Shimin said, "Nowadays, the people of Datang have settled down and started a business, and business is thriving, but there are not many people engaged in the manufacturing industry, mainly because your industry is very wide, and they are all leaders in various industries, and others are out of reach." Although the prosperity of all walks of life is inseparable from your promotion in it, if you have always taken your industry as the main force, you are only one person after all, and you will definitely not be able to meet the development needs of Datang in the future. So I hope you can share some of the skills you have, what do you think? ”

"This ......" Wang Haoran hesitated a little, he was not unwilling, at the beginning he had already discussed with Wang Furen that he would share the technology in about ten years, but the development of Datang was too smooth, and Wang Haoran had already had the intention of doing so. But now that Li Shimin suddenly proposed it, Wang Haoran has to reconsider what kind of charter he has to make. If before, Wang Haoran could have done it by selling technology, but now that Li Shimin says so, does he want to pay for others and directly "buy" Wang Haoran's technology? So what price can Li Shimin offer? With his usual stingy style, Wang Haoran felt that he didn't expect much benefit.

"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer. It's okay if you don't take out all the technology, I can understand this, just the mechanical manufacturing technology is enough, if you agree, I will give you a hereditary title, how about it? Li Shimin said with a smile, he felt that he had used the trick of feints used by Wang Haoran to win the position of the fifth lady.

Wang Haoran decisively agreed, and he just made some money by selling technology, but the last thing he lacked was money, and if he could win some titles for his descendants, it would be great.
