When he was in college, Li Anran heard his roommates and classmates crying poor. After graduating from college and going to work, I also heard colleagues and netizens crying poor. But the king of a country cried poor in front of him, which was really the first time in the world.

If you really want to say that Datang is poor, in fact, it is not wrong. After all, Li Shimin has only been in power for two years. Although his father Li Yuan had been the emperor for a few years in the front, due to the serious turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the entire Tang Dynasty was still in the stage of recuperation.

Especially after Li Shimin came to power, he promulgated a series of Ming policies, and these policies did have many benefits to the Tang Dynasty. But along with the benefits, there are also a lot of expenses, such as building a large number of buildings, stabilizing grain prices, expanding soldiers and horses, and so on.

It's just that in Li Anran's view, even in the early years of Zhenguan, the development of Datang was indeed subject to a lot of restrictions on funds, but then again, how can a skinny camel be bigger than a horse, how can a poor person not even be able to take out this money.

"Holy Lord, I'm not in a hurry for the money for grain and grass this time, and it's not too late to give it to me when it's available." Li Anran, who instinctively felt that there should be something else in this, just groaned slightly, and made the decision to give away at a loss.

The so-called not in a hurry, in fact, means, didn't you say that Datang is poor, then forget the money given to me. As for the pit dug in the back, I'm sorry, I'm not interested in jumping in, so I don't have to be accidentally pitted.

"Huh...... The real person misunderstood. Seeing that the person in front of him obviously misunderstood his meaning, Li Shimin hurriedly explained with a smile: "The poverty I am referring to is not to take advantage of real people. Rather, it means that there is still a lot of lack in order to create a prosperous world. ”

"Oh? I see, what does the Holy Lord mean ......" After glancing at the Tang Emperor in front of him with a little surprise, Li Anran asked tentatively.

"Real person, I still remember that real people once said that if there is no farming, no stability, no work, no wealth, no business, no life, Datang is so powerful, it is time to live well." Li Shimin, who put down the teacup, was full of momentum when he said this.

"Live a good life?" Li Anran, who was stunned for a moment, quickly figured out what this life meant, and asked at the moment: "Holy Lord." What you mean is that you want to vigorously promote business development in Datang. So that Datang will be more prosperous? ”

"Good! That's what I mean. Seeing that the other party finally understood what he meant, Li Shimin nodded and smiled.

Faced with such an answer, Li Anran was really a little surprised.

If you really want to talk about it, the topic of no business and no life has long been told to the other party and the eldest grandson Wuji. It is not without effect to say that after talking about this matter. This can be seen from Li Shimin's strong support for the commercial street.

Merely. To say how good it works. But it is far less than Li Anran thought at the beginning. The social status of merchants has not changed because of the boom in the shopping streets, and in the perception of most people, the concept of business as a cheap industry is still deeply rooted.

Seeing that Li Shimin suddenly wanted to develop business and invigorate the economy. For this, Li Anran is naturally happy to see it happen. Although he and Datang are likely to become enemies at some point in the future, they are currently in the stage of mutual benefit.

"Then I don't know how the Holy One plans to develop commerce and invigorate the economy?" Although he also saw that the other party found him, it was definitely not as simple as wanting a batch of grain and grass, but Li Anran knew that this advantage was not so easy to take advantage of, and asked with a smile.

"Revitalizing the economy? Wonderful! That's a wonderful statement! After literally understanding the meaning of these four words when combined, Li Shimin said with a smile: "Hehe...... To keep it a secret, I don't have a clue at this point. ”

Speaking of which, if Li Anran still can't hear that the other party is hitting him with the idea, then he is purely brain-dead. It's just that such a big thing seems to have a lot of benefits, but in fact, it can also bring a lot of trouble.

Even if you don't care about these troubles, if something really goes wrong, you can use your own ability and the convenience of the entire modern time and space as a backer to quickly solve the mess, but you still need to be cautious.

Of course, in the face of such a big "cake", even if it is only "drawn" now, since it has been delivered to the eyes, there is naturally no reason to miss it. But it is also to eat bread, but it is also necessary to see how to eat it in order to eat the most refreshingly, without choking.

Li Anran said quietly at the moment: "That's right, it is definitely not so simple for Datang to develop business and invigorate the economy. It is true that you need to take some time to discuss it carefully, otherwise one wrong step can easily backfire. ”

"Oh? It seems that what the real person thinks coincides with what I have arrived. Seeing that someone just didn't take the bait, Li Shimin knew that if he would pull it off again, God knew when he would have to pull it, and when the wind of words changed, he said openly and honestly: "Real person, in fact, I want you to be responsible for this matter, I don't know what real people want?" ”

It is said that under normal circumstances, anyone who encounters this kind of good thing that can take advantage of it, and at the same time make merits, and even leave a good impression on Li Shimin, and can be successfully promoted and made rich in the future, will basically agree, but Li Anran is not.

"Me?" Li Anran, who pointed his finger at his nose and deliberately made a look of surprise, quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, the saint, this matter must not be done, please ask the saint to invite another sage to preside over this work." ”

Faced with this obviously faceless rejection, Li Shimin didn't mean to be angry at all, but said with a smile: "Real person, you don't have to refuse so quickly, is there any difficulty, say it and I can help you solve it." ”

"If the real person is afraid that he will be too deeply affected by the qi of the true dragon and the emperor, I can make an order and make it clear to the world, according to what the real person said last time, with this will that represents humanity, can't this problem be solved?"

Seeing that he hadn't opened his mouth yet, the other party blocked this excuse, and after Li Anran slandered "old treacherous and cunning", he shook his head with a wry smile on the surface and said: "Holy Lord, if it's just this problem, then it's easy to do." ”

"Just like the saint said, with the will of the Human Emperor, the impact on the Qi of the True Dragon Son of Heaven will naturally be minimized. Just like now, if it weren't for the Holy Emperor himself who made me the protector of the country, I wouldn't have been able to stay here for so long. ”

"It's just that business and economy are the lifeblood of Datang's development, and I, an outsider, really don't have the qualifications and dare not do this. If this is done well, it will be fine, but if it is not done well, it will not be just the end of the thousand people. ”

This excuse is not a fake politeness. Li Anran actually knows that the opportunity given by Li Shimin is indeed of great benefit to him, but it will also involve many, many problems in all aspects.

Don't talk about it, let's take the shopping street as an example. Don't look at the support of Li Shimin on the surface, the business on the commercial street is getting more and more prosperous, and at the same time, no one dares to make trouble on the ground, and it has become the hottest place outside the east and west cities of Chang'an City.

If it weren't for the fact that the geographical location of the commercial street was far inferior to the east and west cities in Chang'an City, and the time of operation was still not long, it would not be difficult to surpass the east and west cities in the city to become a commercial leader.

But precisely because of this, how could such a big piece of fat be untargeted. If it weren't for Li Shimin's strong support on the surface, coupled with Li Anran's own weight, and taking the initiative to cooperate with various families.

And deliberately gave up part of the interests of the commercial street, forming a situation in which cooperation is beneficial to both and division is harmful. How easy is it for the commercial street to open so smoothly and prosperously. The trial implementation of invoicing and commercial tax alone has to be greatly hindered.

And after listening to what he just said, Li Shimin also knew that this was not, or not entirely a prevarication. In fact, if it weren't for all the troubles involved in this matter, how could it be possible to hand over this matter to Li Anran to deal with.

Don't look at Li Shimin sitting in the seat of the monarch of a country, but the history of the existence of the family is far longer than that of the Tang Dynasty. The strength he has is also far stronger than the Li family, which has just ascended to the throne. Although it is not to be afraid, many things have to be taken care of.

It is precisely because of these reasons that in Li Shimin's opinion, Li Anran, who is an immortal in the upper realm and has unpredictable magical powers, is the best candidate. (To be continued......)
