Looking at An He's radiant appearance, Li Xiaojiu couldn't help but be a little surprised, he only thought that he was smart and literate before, and even had some unique opinions on some things, but he didn't expect that he still had such a deep understanding of the three industries of agriculture, industry and commerce.

"An Qing, you said agriculture and industry, but what about the rest of the business?"

Li Xiaojiu pondered for a moment, and then asked, he also knew a lot about the three industries of agriculture, industry, and commerce, but he had never thought about it from the perspective of social wealth.

"Your Majesty, commerce is a very special industry, it does not produce any wealth in itself, but only earns the difference by buying low and selling high, which is also the fundamental reason why the world despises businessmen."

Li Xiaojiu nodded, and what An He said was also the consensus of the world on businessmen.

For example, taking the very common merchants in Datang as an example, these merchants sell goods, first of all, they have to investigate the price of a certain commodity in various places, analyze the risk and income of selling this commodity, and then spend the capital to sell a large number of goods, and transport them all the way to the destination for sale, and the mental and physical energy spent in it, as well as the risks and various costs involved, will be superimposed on the original cost of this batch of goodsTherefore, people see that the difference in the price earned by the merchant is also earned by the merchant through his labor, but the original value of the commodity is artificially increased by a part. Moreover, merchants transported the products of industrial and agricultural production to various places for marketing, so that the wealth of the world could circulate, and only after this wealth was circulated, that wealth could exert its own value. ”

When An He talked about the profession of a businessman, except for what he saw on the Internet or books in later generations, most of them were his own thoughts, and he used a lot of new terms, he was really afraid that Li Xiaojiu would not understand.

"Well, Rokuro is right, although the world despises businessmen's unearned gains, but from your analysis, businessmen are actually labor."

After all, Li Xiaojiu is the king of a country, and his comprehension ability is very strong, so he understands An He's words after thinking about it for a while.

"Your Majesty, now that we have understood the characteristics and differences between the three industries of agriculture, industry and commerce, then it is very simple to solve the poverty of the people, not to mention agriculture, unless you suddenly get a large piece of fertile land and enough population, it is difficult to increase in a short time, so that the only way to solve this problem is to find a way from industry and commerce, of which industry and agriculture are the basis of commerce, so if you want to rapidly increase social wealth, the first step is to vigorously develop industry!"

An He said categorically.

When Li Xiaojiu heard An He's words, his heart suddenly moved, thinking of An He's various actions during this time, he suddenly had a feeling of blessing to his soul, and blurted out at the moment:

"An Qing, did you have the idea of developing industry from the beginning of the new commodities such as roasted tea, Wuliangye, cement, and charcoal that you have made during this time?"

"The emperor is wise, in fact, when the ministers began to make fried tea and the five kings were drunk, they didn't think too much, but they were tight for a while, so they wanted to make some money, but with the accumulation of capital, I found that I could still do a lot of things, although I couldn't help the emperor in government affairs, but if I could develop the industry and benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty, it would be regarded as a side for the emperor to relieve your worries."

An He said with a dignified face, if you can please the emperor, it is not too much.

"I can't figure it out, after the development of industry, aren't the most beneficial people still those factory owners and those businessmen, how can I benefit the people of Datang?" Li Xiaojiu asked.

"Your Majesty, think about it, if the industry develops, it is always necessary to hire people, of course, the rich people in the family disdain to work, but those poor families can find a new income from it, and the more developed the industry, the more people will be employed, and of course the more people will be benefited."

An He explained with a smile.

"Well, that's good!"

Li Xiaojiu nodded and said:

"It's like the cement factories and carboniferous mines you built by Liulang, although no statistics have been made, but according to my estimates, at least hundreds of thousands of Datang people have benefited."

"Your Majesty, in fact, you still underestimate this cement and charcoal!"

As soon as An He heard Li Xiaojiu's words, he immediately retorted.

"Oh?"

Li Xiaojiu was stunned for a moment, and looked at An He with some surprise, is there anything in this that he can't see through?

"Emperor Qiqi, you only see cement and carboniferous products, but do not count the related industries, such as the production of cement, immediately led to the mining and transportation of raw materials such as carboniferous, gypsum, slag, etc., and with the application and promotion of cement, there must be more cement products invented. The same is true of carbon, although it is now mainly used as a fuel for refining cement and iron, but its other functions have also been mastered by our Coal Industry Association, and when it is launched, it will definitely benefit more people in Datang! ”

Anhe said very heroically, in his original plan, cement and charcoal these two things, but occupy a very important position, and like another thing that is about to appear, they are the key props of Anhe's layout of the world.

Li Xiaojiu looked at An He, who was full of energy, and suddenly realized for the first time that he didn't know enough about this guy. Although he was still skeptical of some of the points in An He's words, it did not affect his appreciation of An He.

"An Qing, although there is some truth in your words, but you attach too much importance to the role of industry and commerce, you know, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and scholars are the foundation of governing the country, only by grasping these two in hand, the whole country will be stable, and after the country is stable, it is possible to vigorously develop industry and commerce!"

Li Xiaojiu said earnestly.

Although Li Xiaojiu was the emperor, he was limited by the education he had been exposed to since he was a child, and he had already deeply rooted the idea of building a country with agriculture into his bone marrow, so although he recognized the importance of industry and commerce, the importance of scholars and farmers was still in the first place in his heart.

"What the emperor taught is that the ministers must remember!"

An He bowed down and said, he also knew that if he wanted to shake the ancients' idea of valuing agriculture over industry and commerce, it was not something that could be done in a day or two, so he would no longer refute it. But then he smiled and said:

"Your Majesty, now that I, Datang, am under your governance, the people of Datang are living and working in peace and contentment, and the ministers have also taken advantage of this great opportunity to do something in terms of industry, so that the people of Datang can live a better life, but in the final analysis, this credit still goes to the emperor."

Although he knew that it was his son who patted his own ass, Li Xiaojiu was still very happy, patted An He's shoulder and praised him without hesitation, and also told An He: You can do this business and enrich the people with confidence, don't have any worries, let alone ignore the eyes of others, you must remember what he said when he was in the cement supervision institute, 'dare to be the first in the world', and do what others dare not do and can't do!
