Volume 5 Chapter 486 Wei Zheng: Your Majesty, the minister can assist!

Regarding Fang Xuanling's thoughts, Li Ermen was clear.

Classes have been opposed to each other since they existed, and this is not something that can be changed by any one person.

Don't look at Fang Xuanling's support for the revitalization of culture and education, but don't forget, that is culture and education, to put it bluntly, it is still the class of scholars.

At this time, Li Er wanted to use this to promote industrial reform, which would inevitably elevate the status of craftsmen.

That's what they don't want to see.

Judging from the previous ones, everyone has actually discovered that Li Er has been stimulated by the ever-changing craftsmanship of the Ming Dynasty.

The dignified heaven is the upper state, and in any way you can't look up to people!

Even if that person is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, it can't be.

This is Li Er's attitude.

Therefore, when they entered the Liangyi Palace, everyone was heavy-faced.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng is becoming more and more incomprehensible now, it's not that he can't understand Chang'an, but the one who can't understand Sun Moon Mountain.

At first, he even wondered if he was right or wrong.

But after Li Xiaogong detained Wang Dequan, Wei Zheng seemed to understand that it was too early to draw conclusions, so he might as well take a look first.

With such thoughts, his whole person was much more relaxed.

Therefore, today's Wei Zheng is more often looking at these things with the mentality of a bystander.

In such a state of mind, what is there for him to be nervous about?

Li Er smiled when he saw everyone's expressions, and said, "Zhongqing, why is this?" I just finished reading Ji Guogong's recital, and I was very happy, why did Zhongqing react like this?

Is there something that I don't know about? ”

Everyone slandered in their hearts, there are still things you don't know about in the whole Chang'an?

It's just that when Li Er said this, everyone's hearts sank, and what they were worried about finally happened.

The people present are all smart people, and the Quyuan plow that Duan Lun's family wants to buy, is it that simple?

"Your Majesty, can you let the ministers wait for Ji Guogong's recital?" Dai Bin said, "The ministers also want to see how amazing the Quyuan plow is in a hundred pairs!" ”

In fact, they guessed that only 200 pairs of curved ploughs were worth 20,000 yuan, and the real value of 20,000 yuan must be the technology of making curved yuan plows.

Otherwise, with Duan Lun's character, how could he have broken his family and bought it back!

When Li Er heard this, he smiled.

He knew that these guys were in a hurry.

If he wasn't in a hurry, how could Dai Bin say such a thing.

Is the courtier's recital something that others can watch if they want to see it?

Of course, he didn't care, and with a wave of his hand, he asked the chamberlain to send Duan Lun's recital.

It was only a matter of moments, and everyone gathered around finished reading the content of Duan Lun's recital, and they all looked panicked.

Duan Lun, what a gut!

"Your Majesty, no!" Dai Bin hurriedly said, "The court has improved the treatment of craftsmen several times in a very short period of time, if this continues, Weichen is worried that the people in the world are still working but not literate."

This will chill the hearts of the world's scholars!

Ji Guogong's move is really a move that brings disaster to the country and the people!

Besides, my household department can't come up with money and food, and I have the ability, let him Duan Lun pay for it himself, and my household department has nothing to say! ”

After speaking, Dai Yan flicked his sleeves and stood there with a huffing face.

"Your Majesty, Ji Guogong's move is indeed inappropriate." Fang Xuanling also immediately stood up and said, "Although Ji Guogong is fully responsible for this mission, he is good at it without invitation, and this trend cannot last!"

Otherwise, in the future, Datang officials will follow suit, so how can it be good? ”

"......Hmph," Li Er snorted coldly and said, "Ji Guogong made it very clear in the recital, at that time, all countries were staring at this batch of Quyuan ploughs in the Ming Dynasty, and he was worried that the return and return of the music would delay time, so he would rather break his family and buy this batch of Quyuan plows."

In the recital, did Duan Lun say that he wanted your household to pay?

He is full of patriotism, how can it become a disaster for the country and the people in your mouth?

Do you know how much money Ji Guogong's move can save Datang every year?

Do you have to spend a huge amount of money every year to buy Quyuan ploughs in Daming, so that you are satisfied?

Or are you used to being choked by the neck?

I don't know! ”

Fang Xuanling and the others looked embarrassed, how could they ignore this, but they understood.

With Li Er's character, the courtiers have done their part, and he will definitely not let his courtiers suffer.

Since it is for the sake of the court and for the good of the Tang Dynasty, Duan Lun has 20,000 yuan, and nothing he says will really make him ruined.

If such a courtier does not love, what kind of courtier should he love?

If Li Er was such a king, these people who were present would have run away a long time ago.

And they are the only ones who know this, doesn't Duan Lun know?

Duan Lun knows, he must know!

This is the reason why Duan Lun dares to break his family!

But when Li Er said this, they couldn't refute it.

In this matter, did Duan Lun do something wrong?

No, absolutely nothing!

Even if it were to change them, it might be the same.

After all, it's really a good deal.

But the problem is that if Duan Lun only wants to do this, forget it, but Duan Lun obviously wants to set off a new round of industrial transformation in Datang.

Look at what is said in the chapter, the decay of Datang craftsmen is not in thought, but in spirit!

The transformation of industry is not in treatment, but in ......

These all reveal Duan Lun's political views.

That's what they're afraid of, or worry about.

And this is also what Li Er wants to see or makes him the happiest the most.

"Your Majesty, now that the Tang Dynasty has not been in peace for a long time, it is not appropriate to make too many changes." Fang Xuanling said, "Since ancient times, every reform has been the beginning of a turmoil, so you have to be cautious!" ”

Li Er actually knows this truth.

But since Li Chengqian gained a foothold in the northwest, he has been put under too much pressure.

As an emperor, he has never had the consciousness of being secondary, not in any way.

What Li Chengqian can do, he will definitely be able to do, and he can do it even better!

What's more, the Tang Dynasty, the Heavenly Empire, if you lose to the Ming Dynasty that Li Chengqian spent more than a year tossing.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he felt panicked!

"There's a risk in everything." Li Er said, "If there is no risk, why did we overthrow the former Sui back then? If there is no risk, then of course, why bother to follow me to do that Xuanwu Sect? ”

Coax!

Everyone's brains exploded!

There was a reaction immediately, Li Er went crazy!

Can you say all this?

Immediately, everyone's hearts became heavier and heavier, which showed that Li Er had almost made up his mind about the change.

This made everyone even more anxious.

"Since I've done it, I never care what others say!" Li Er was so angry that he stood up and said, "I just want to tell you that doing anything is risky.

But if the stakes are sufficient, the risk is worth taking. ”

As he spoke, Li Er rummaged through the table, and then found an envelope and threw it directly to the chamberlain beside him, motioning him to take it to Fang Xuanling and the others.

When Fang Xuanling took the envelope, he was still a little curious.

Curious about the contents of the envelope.

When Fang Xuanling and the others got together to open the envelope, Li Er also walked down and said casually: "The letter in your hand is that I have sent someone to investigate some of the situation in the Ming Dynasty in the past year.

How can I say that Gao Ming is my eldest son, although he is now far away in the bitter cold land of the northwest, and he also has his own place to stand, but as a parent, how can he not worry?

Therefore, I have already sent someone to secretly protect Gao Ming's safety, and by the way, I also know some things about Gao Ming.

This is also so that when he is really in danger, I can help him in time. ”

He explained for a long time, and everyone thought it was funny.

Surveillance is surveillance, and it is said so high-sounding.

"From this letter, you can also see that the Ming Dynasty has been completely supported by Daming's workshop in the past year.

It is no exaggeration to say that more than ninety percent of the income of the Ming Dynasty comes from various workshops. ”

Hearing Li Er say this, everyone also found the specific content in the letter, and everyone was also shocked at the moment.

More than ninety percent of the treasury's income comes from workshops?

It's terrifying!

Seeing this, Li Er smiled and said, "When I saw this number at that time, I was also surprised.

At that time, I was thinking about a question.

Who knows what I'm thinking? ”

"Where did Daming's food come from?" Fang Xuanling blurted out.

He was thinking about it just now.

Ninety percent of the treasury income comes from workshops, which means that the income of the Ming Dynasty in agriculture is almost zero.

But it's normal to think about it, indeed, in the past few years, the Ming Dynasty has either been in the flames of war or natural disasters, whether it is agriculture or animal husbandry, it has been hit hard.

The sharp decline in income in this area is actually normal.

Li Er nodded and said, "Yes, at that time, I was just curious, the agriculture and animal husbandry of the Ming Dynasty were almost paralyzed, so how did Gao Ming feed so many ordinary people?"

Commerce? Industry?

But these things, it can't directly solve the problem of food and clothing!

No, Wen Shang can be solved, what about full?

Is it holding a copper coin or something? ”

Speaking of this, everyone nodded.

That's right.

"Speaking of this, Weichen felt that Murong Fuyun had lost unjustly." Li Xiaogong shook his head and said, "Gao Ming can't even be self-sufficient in food, and he can actually take Tuyuhun, from this point of view, Gao Ming has indeed grown a lot." ”

"Yes." Li Er nodded and said, "Since Gao Ming went to the northwest, he has really grown at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

Think at the beginning, when he was in Chang'an, did he behave like this?

Sure enough, the tree died, and the man lived.

Okay, let's not talk about this, let's go back to the topic just now, where did the smart food come from? ”

"Sold to the Ming Dynasty from all over the world." Dai Bin said, "As far as Weichen knows, in the past year, all countries have sold grain to the Ming Dynasty.

Even if my Datang finally ordered a ban on grain leaving the country, there were still many people who sold grain to Sun Moon Mountain through various means. ”

Li Er shook his head and said, "You got a wrong question, whether it is the Tang Dynasty or the countries, who doesn't know that the Ming Dynasty was short of food at that time?"

Do you really think that the merchants who sell grain are all good people?

That is to say, Gao Ming is my eldest son, if it were not for this, I would not allow a grain of grain to flow into the Ming court.

That's raising tigers for trouble! ”

He was simply bragging.

If that were the case, he would be more active than the others.

"If there was no grain into the Ming Dynasty at that time, let alone annex the entire Tuyuhun by the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that it would be difficult for it not to collapse." Li Xiaogong said, "The common people are the most docile, but sometimes, they are also the most fierce. ”

"yes, that's the truth." Li Er said, "Then do you say that all countries have not seen this problem? Did Murong Fuyun not see it? Or didn't Xue Yantuo's Yi Nan see it?

Or maybe the Western Turks' Ashina Zhali and the Tibetan Songtsen Gampo didn't see it?

Impossible!

Even Ashina has seen this scene, let alone Yi Nan, who is a masterpiece of the moment?

Although I look down on them, how can I really be a medic talent if I can compete with my Datang in this world?

They obviously saw an opportunity to destroy the Ming Dynasty without much effort, why didn't they do it? ”

At this point, the crowd fell into deep thought.

Indeed, at that time, as long as all countries did not send food to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty would definitely be defeated without a fight!

"Because they have to." Just when everyone was silent, Wei Zheng, who had not spoken, suddenly said.

"Have to?" Kong Yingda asked with some curiosity, "Why is this?" ”

"yes, why do you have to?" Dai Bin also looked at it with some curiosity.

Li Er said with a smile: "Since everyone is puzzled, Wei Qing might as well solve everyone's doubts." ”

Originally, Li Er was going to talk about it himself, but since Wei Zheng had spoken, of course he was willing to let Wei Zheng speak.

Arching his hand, Wei Zheng said: "Because they are not one heart, if they are not aligned, they will not be able to do anything." ”

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, Wei Zheng said again, "It should be said that the goods sold by the Ming Dynasty will affect the balance between them."

Take, for example, the Western Turks and Xue Yantuo.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty sold repeating crossbows, and we all know that they were weapons.

At that time, the Western Turks and Xue Yantuo were constantly fighting.

At first, His Highness only sold repeaters to the Western Turks.

The Western Turks, who had a repeater, suddenly increased their strength greatly, and Xue Yantuo, who originally had an advantage, was at a disadvantage, what would Yi Nan think at this time?

He also wanted a crossbow, and then he bought it from His Highness.

His Royal Highness only proposed at this time to use grain to deduct part of the payment, but at this time, although Yi Nan knew that he was doing this to be an enemy and a tiger, he had no way to stop.

Because, he didn't dare to guarantee whether Ashina would continue to buy crossbows from Daming.

The same is true of Tibet and Subi.

It is precisely for this reason that all countries are willing to transport food to Sun Moon Mountain in a steady stream.

Because, what Sun Moon Mountain sells is an ordnance that affects the balance between them.

In the end, this is a yang conspiracy.

In the end, this business was done, but all countries rushed to do business with the Ming Dynasty.

Because, they were also afraid that the Ming court would sell more weapons to their opponents, which would affect the war between them.

High, really high.

The business is doing this, and it may be the only one! ”

After listening to Wei Zheng, everyone nodded.

When I said this, everyone understood.

It's not hard to understand.

"But isn't Your Highness afraid of selling ordnance to the enemy country and strengthening the military strength of the enemy country?" Dai Bin was a little puzzled.

Speaking of this, Wei Zheng smiled and said, "Do you know the price of a pair of repeaters?" The most important thing is not this, the most important thing is that the crossbow arrows distributed by His Highness's crossbow need to be recycled before a certain percentage will be supplied.

In other words, His Royal Highness did not sell crossbow arrows in the later period, and even a crossbow in hand was not as good as a burning stick.

As for whether the craftsmen of their countries will study it.

Hehe......

At that time, Daming is only afraid that there will be newer ordnance out of the market.

I'm afraid you don't know how amazing the investment of the Ming Dynasty in research and development is! ”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

But Li Er said at this time: "But in the end, what Gao Ming is holding in his hands is their necessities, if it weren't for that, how would they be willing!"

So, the time has come for industry, as I call it, to be reformed.

One step behind, you will fall behind step by step, have you forgotten the old thing that the Ministry of Industry copied the repeater?

If it weren't for Gao Ming's willingness to release the technology of the Quyuan plough this time, how much time would my Datang Ministry of Industry spend researching?

Moreover, even if Gao Ming is willing to release the technology in the future, will I have to spend money to buy it every time?

Think about it, how many new processes have been developed by the Ming Dynasty in the past year or so!

If you spend money on technology, how much will it cost?

Iron still needs to be hard, Zhongqing! ”

Ask for a commuter pass!
