Chapter 36: The Empty Treasury
A post on the Datang Literature Forum went viral. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Live broadcast: Chang'an City's talented people will go to the poetry meeting, and the literary talents of Jingyang County are shocking!!"
In this post, the author described in detail what happened at that time, and at the end, he posted a few poems made by Liu Yuze, and the forum exploded at the moment.
"Worship!! Jingyang County, please take my knees!! ā
"Ben Caizi said that he had been hit by an arrow in his knee......"
"These poems really scared the baby...... Why wasn't Ben Bao who made this poem? This baby is unhappy, this baby has a little emotion......"
"Disgusting not disgusting upstairs!! Pull it out and cut it!! ā
"I've only heard that Jingyang County is very good at cooking, but I didn't expect the literary style to be so good, such a literary style, I'm afraid it is not inferior to our forum's first genius Shangguanyi!!"
"No, I'm not as good as him!! Under the circumstances, I simply could not have written so many excellent poems in such a short period of time!! The gap between me and Jingyang County is too big!! I'm so ashamed to be called the number one talent in the forum!! Shangguan Yi also ran out and bubbled.
"Lord Shangguan, how does it feel to be a straight bachelor?"
"Lord Shangguan, I gave you a thumbs up in the preliminaries, you can't forget me when you're developed......"
Okay, from here on, the building will start to be crooked, everyone has begun to talk about Shangguanyi, how about you write poems well, everyone has become an official, don't bother with him, who will go!
āāāā
"Liu Aiqing, is there any way to quickly replenish the treasury? Now our treasury is still very empty......"
What is the purpose of replenishing the treasury? You don't really want to fight the Turks, do you? It's only been two years of Zhenguan, aren't you doing this for three years?
"The widow doesn't hide it from you, for the Turks, the widows have always wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible, and this year is the best time to exterminate the Turks! Turkic Jieli Khan reused the Han Zhao Deyan, Zhao Deyan dedicated to his prestige, changed the old customs, and the government decrees were harsh, causing dissatisfaction among the Turks, coupled with a rare blizzard, Jieli Khan has betrayed his relatives, and now the Turkic Khan has spoken with me on the phone, making it clear that he will part ways with Jieli Khan, if I want to exterminate Jieli Khan, Tuli Khan even promised to send troops to support us...... But I think my country's treasury is empty, and it's really not suitable for war......"
Liu Yuze was stunned, since the external conditions came into being in the first year of Zhenguan, the reason why the Tang Dynasty decided to crusade against the Turks in Zhenguan for three or four years was not because the treasury was empty at that time, right?
"Of course, Aiqing don't give me any suggestions for raising taxes, you know I'm not asking about this ......"
"Your Majesty, this matter is easy to solve, isn't it over if you get a state-owned enterprise?"
"State-owned enterprises?"
"That's right, it's run by the royal family, so isn't the profit generated by yours?"
"Competing with the people??"
"How is this a competition for the benefit of the people! Let's not do these rice, cloth and enterprises, the money is too slow, if we want to quickly enrich the treasury, we only have empty gloves white wolf!! ā
"What is an empty glove white wolf?"
"It's to make something out of thin air and sell it to the people......"
"How can the people buy it?"
"If there is a profit, you will buy it, and the greater the interest, the more crazy it will be...... After more than 40 years of research, the master finally developed a mature system of empty gloves and white wolves. The name is the lottery ......"
"In short, this is a kind of gambling controlled by the royal family, the people can get great profits at a very small price, but this folk gambling is not the same, on the one hand, it is produced by the royal family, there must be no problem in terms of reputation, and on the other hand, it needs to spend a very small price, but you can get a great profit, for example, a lottery ticket only needs two pennies, but you can win 500 yuan, the people are not crazy?"
"Then we won't pay for death?!" Li Shimin was shocked.
"How is that possible! Let's just lower the probability, and the permutation and combination of numbers from 1 to 9 can produce an infinite number of combinations, and only those who fully correspond can win the lottery......"
"Well, this can be studied, let Liu Aiqing study it! If there is another country, you will be responsible, and you will make up for the profits, and you will make up for the profits......"
"Your Majesty Xie......" Liu Yuze was overjoyed.
"Aiqing doesn't object?" Li Shimin was surprised.
"How could I object to such a lucrative profit!!"
Li Shimin was a little depressed. He thought that this matter was very unreliable, but he regretted it a little when he saw Liu Yuze so happy as if he had picked up a big bargain, is this really profitable? ?
"System Task: The system has detected that you are discussing the word money with the emperor, so it opens the task: the establishment of a bank! Task completion reward: The mobile phone will enter the paid eraTask failure penalty: None, the mobile phone is still free era. ā
What the? Mobile phones were originally chargeable!! That's not a big profit!! Liu Yuze is even more excited than obtaining the right to operate the lottery!!
"Aiqing, are you demonic?"
"No, Your Majesty, I think of another thing, called a bank! This is something that my master has been studying for forty years......"
"Get out!"
