Chapter 49 Doing Business

I went to Li Shimin's imperial study, and when I left in the afternoon, I just sent someone to say it, and I had to talk about it in person when I came back.

Seeing that the emperor did not expect a reprimand, Li Shimin just admonished: "You are now a princess, you must always pay attention to the dignity of the royal family, and don't always treat yourself as an ordinary person." ”

After finishing speaking, he asked about the general situation, and then waved his hand to drive the two of them back to rest early.

Out of the imperial study, Zhang Wenyi stuck out his tongue and was gently patted on the top of his head by Li Zhi.

She found that Li Shimin, like all fathers, was different when he disagreed and identified. When he doesn't agree with you, everything is wrong; And when he agrees with you, no matter how wrong he is, he will protect his shortcomings.

The two of them were a little tired after a busy day, so they hurriedly washed up and rested. After lying down, Zhang Wenyi felt that Li Zhi was in low spirits, and he did not warm up with himself as usual.

Li Zhi is an emotional person, easy to be swayed by emotions, and if he falls into a trough, he will often give up on himself. But Li Zhi is very proud, and direct persuasion may not have a good effect.

So Zhang Wenyi gently shook Li Zhi's arm. Li Zhi thought that Zhang Wenyi was very happy to see his parents, and he was naughty with him at this time.

hugged her dotingly, gently stroked Zhang Wenyi's back, and asked, "Happy?" ”

Zhang Wenyi said "um" and said, "It's great that my father and mother are here." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Wenyi turned to face Li Zhi, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his neck, and said, "Thank you, thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Li Zhi smiled secretly and did not answer.

did not arouse Li Zhi's interest, Zhang Wenyi changed the topic again: "Husband, can I use the reward that His Majesty gave me?" ”

Li Zhi was finally interested by her success, and he said, "Of course you can, what are you going to do with it?" ”

Feeling Li Zhi's hand begin to wander on his body, knowing that his mood has changed, he began to be attracted to his own problems.

Zhang Wenyi replied: "I want to use it to buy some land and open a few shops." ”

Unexpectedly, the little wife had such an idea, Li Zhi said with some concern: "How could you think of doing this." ”

Fortunately, after Zhang Wenyi's preaching, Li Zhi already knew the importance of the economy to the country, and the importance of business as a link in the national economy is self-evident. Otherwise, according to the previous understanding that businessmen were the root of all evil, they would have to lose their temper.

In the dark, Zhang Wenyi couldn't see the change in Li Zhi's face, but he could feel that he was a little unhappy from his tone.

Zhang Wenyi, who has the experience of doing business in later generations, also recognizes the destructive power of business on social morality and traditional culture, but business is also an important driving force for socio-economic and technological development.

Zhang Wenyi was also influenced by Li Zhi while changing his rule, and finally understood why commerce was so inhibited in ancient times.

In ancient times, the consequences of profit-seeking by merchants were not much different from those in modern times, and the production and sale of counterfeits were shoddy; Big businessmen take advantage of their own advantages to collude with the government to resell important national materials and assets. These are difficult to eradicate in modern times.

In particular, the production orientation that is easily formed by the windfall profits of commerce will have an impact on the social economy, and it is difficult to reverse the situation of underdeveloped material production in ancient times, and eventually form a collapse, which will lead to the shaking of the political power.

Therefore, in the process of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce, science and technology that can promote production progress and promote commercial development have become the "strange tricks" that feudal scholars hate.

However, the backwardness of science and technology caused China to become weaker and weaker, and finally formed a history of humiliation in the modern century.

Zhang Wenyi has not changed the lofty ideals of this humiliating history, and what she thinks of now is that the big bureaucrats and gate valves have taken advantage of the state's need to curb the negative impact of commerce, completely separating commerce from the country's economic needs, turning it into their prison, and thus making a fortune.

The country is declining and dying because it is missing an important part of the economy, and she wants to take back from them the benefits that rightfully belong to the royal family.

Zhang Wenyi twisted her body and turned her face to Li Zhi, she now needs Li Zhi to be patient and reason with her, otherwise if he simply and rudely vetoes himself, it will be worth the loss.

"Of course it's making money." Zhang Wenyi said as she stretched out her fingers to draw circles on Li Zhi's broad chest.

Li Zhi was a little emotional by Zhang Wenyi's delicate appearance. In fact, Zhang Wenyi's main reason for doing this was that Li Zhi couldn't fully concentrate on thinking, after all, doing business was spurned by the powerful in this era.

"Our royal family is rich all over the world, what do you want to do with the money." Li Zhi has always been cautious at this time, for fear of hurting Zhang Wenyi, so now he still has the energy to answer her.

This sentence is exactly what Zhang Wenyi wanted, and she immediately asked: "How rich is the wealthy?" Repair a palace also has to be repaired and stopped? Do you need to save charcoal fire in winter? ”

Zhang Wenyi deliberately made his voice appear fragmented, which was a way to give him confidence. That way he doesn't care too much about the conversation between them, and it doesn't affect the quality of life.

After all, her capital is insufficient, and it is not possible to protect herself and satisfy the other party without using some means. Otherwise, Li Zhi has too many scruples in this regard, and the relationship between them will definitely be affected.

In particular, there is the existence of Concubine Xiao, a big threat, and the IQ reflected from the modification of clothes makes Zhang Wenyi deeply vigilant. She could also see that Concubine Xiao had a deep attachment to Li Zhi, which was the attachment of liking someone.

A woman can give everything she has to the person she likes, or she can obtain it by any means, Zhang Wenyi can't help but guard against her.

Li Zhi didn't answer her, and now that he had reached a critical juncture, he had to be more careful. Li Zhi likes to enjoy her body and is willing to protect her from harm, and he will definitely warn himself to be careful, careful, and careful at every critical moment.

Whenever this time Zhang Wenyi would be very moved, today she gently stroked Li Zhi's face and said to him softly: "I really want to grow up immediately." ”

Li Zhi understood what Zhang Wenyi meant, she could feel her love and spoiling, and she was willing to enjoy it while also being willing to pay. This is where Li Zhi respects Zhang Wenyi the most, he will never be pampered and coquettish, and he will always know the other party's contribution. Li Zhi is also willing to spoil her infinitely and get infinitely close to her.

After making the final release, Li Zhi lay back cautiously, but he didn't forget to hold her and continue to warm up for a while.

He had long since discovered that this was the moment she liked the most, so he would deliberately satisfy her after each time.

"Okay?" Zhang Wenyi took this opportunity to be coquettish.

This matter is indeed more difficult, because this is not something that Li Zhi can decide by himself, and many times he still needs to ask for the consent of his father Li Shimin.

Li Zhi stopped stroking. Zhang Wenyi knew that he was thinking, and it was inconvenient for her to disturb at this time. Because men are most physically exhausted at this time, but their minds are the most active.

"Why did you suddenly think of this today?" Li Zhi asked softly.

Zhang Wenyi immediately reacted that Li Zhi was not asking, but confirming his guess. He needs to determine whether Zhang Wenyi's decision was dictated by his family, which is crucial to his decision.

Zhang Wenyi knew that if he didn't have a little relationship with his family, Li Zhi would definitely not believe it. Fortunately, it is not difficult to find an excuse that does not affect the family.

Zhang Wenyi said with a smile: "When I saw my father and mother, I remembered that when I was a child, they prevented others from plotting and were very strict with our lives. At that time, charcoal fire was used in winter as it is now in the palace. ”

Li Zhi understood what Zhang Wenyi meant, which was also to save carbon, but the purpose was different. One is to save money and the other is to exercise.

Such an explanation suddenly made Li Zhi feel how illusory he had always thought of "rich all over the world" was, he seemed to grasp something, but when he approached, it disappeared.

After pecking Zhang Wenyi's mouth, Li Zhi said with a smile: "This has to be discussed with my father." ”

Zhang Wenyi cleaned up the mess after the passion, and said a docile "um". Li Zhi likes the privacy at this time, unlike in other places where thousands of people have to admire. This is a secret unique to the two of them, and neither of them wants to share it with others, and this kind of thing does not discriminate between men and women.

After hugging each other all night, after getting up, Zhang Wenyi dressed up to serve Li Zhi as usual, and asked the palace maid to bring the washing utensils and then serve Li Zhi with her own hands, and sent him out of the palace gate.

took a moment for Li Zhi to tell his father about Zhang Wenyi's thoughts, and Li Shimin's first reaction was that Zhang Wenyi was influenced by his family, and after listening to Li Zhi's explanation, Li Shimin felt that it was also very reasonable.

However, Li Shimin, who has been fighting with the princes and ministers for many years, is not so easily convinced, and he is still skeptical. It's just that Li Shimin's mind is much more far-reaching than Li Zhike, because Li Shimin understands the questions raised by Zhang Wenyi.

He knows that most of the wealth in the world is controlled by wealthy families, and the royal family has a reputation of "rich all over the world", but in fact, many times it is so poor that it is clanging.

Yang Guang of the previous dynasty dug the Grand Canal in order to allow the wealth of the south to enter the north smoothly, but he was reprimanded for working the people and money, and finally collapsed the good Sui Dynasty.

Their Li family and Yang family are in-laws, so Li Shimin is very clear about this.

Zhang Wenyi's proposal needs to be fully confirmed whether it was instigated by the family or out of his own heart, if it was instigated by the family, Li Shimin needed to reconsider the appointment of the Wen family, if it was out of her own heart, Li Shimin not only wanted to reuse the Wen family, but also reuse the princess of Jin.

After all, this exploration of hers is conducive to the royal family's grasp of wealth.

Similar practices were not absent in ancient times, and the salt and iron monopoly was a method of amassing wealth in the imperial court. However, with the passage of time, the salt and iron monopoly gradually became a way for officials and businessmen to collude to make huge profits, and the royal family and the imperial court could not profit from it.

Li Shimin knows this very well, if Zhang Wenyi's exploration can enable the royal family to accumulate huge wealth from generation to generation like a wealthy family, then there is no need to worry about passing it on for generations.
