Chapter 89: VIPs
After Wang Xuance left, Wei Zheng frowned and pondered. Although some of the things Li Shen does on weekdays make him very unaccustomed to it. But Wei Zheng also found that Li Shen was a somewhat capable prince. Every time you do something, you have a reason. There must be some truth in that.
For example, there are many things in Chang'an today that have changed their ways and returned to righteousness. He had heard from his son. This scourge is now acting in a very different way than it has ever been. used to bully men and women, and bullied the market.
Now occasionally they can eliminate harm for the people. I heard that because of this group of scourges, the public security in Chang'an has been much better recently. And they don't bother the people anymore. It's about eating, drinking, and having fun.
They said that King Ji said that bullying the people was a loss of identity. So this time, Li Shen wanted to transfer Wang Xuance, and Wei Zheng felt that something was strange.
"Go, bring Wang Xuance's resume." He felt he should find out.
Soon, an official brought Wang Xuance's resume over. When is the champion in the middle of the year, and where is the county magistrate. Later, he was promoted to the Asasan doctor from the fifth grade. Wei Zheng looked at it for a while and finished reading it.
But Wei Zheng didn't see anything out of the ordinary. He was stunned when he flipped to the last page. Shomen originated. The ancestors were all former Sui generals who learned martial arts since childhood. This is a talent who is both civil and military.
From the county order of the seventh-rank petty official directly jumped the rank to the fifth-grade. And he was born as a military general. Wei Zheng felt as if he was missing a talent. This Ji Wang singled out Wang Xuance and affirmed that this person was talented. Li Shen's shrewdness Wei Zheng knows too well. It's never a loss. But Wei Zheng was also helpless. He was one of the bureaucrats.
No matter what Wei Zheng thought, Li Shen had already come to the Liangyi Hall at this time. Standing in the doorway, I was thinking about what to say.
"Lord Wang, Your Majesty told you to go in" Wang De stood on the steps and smiled at Li Shen.
Li Shen was startled when he heard Wang De's words. I'm not ready yet. I didn't let anyone report it. How did Li Shimin know that he was coming.
"Wang, how did Aya know I was coming?" Li Shen asked the question
"The guards outside saw His Highness standing still here, so they reported to Commander Li." Wang De said this, Li Shen knew what was going on
Entering the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin was the only one. Now he has asked the three provinces to separate all the unimportant recitals and send them to the East Palace. There isn't much left to do.
"What are you doing standing outside?" Li Shimin asked disgustedly
"Aye, it's nothing, I'm here to greet you." Li Shen played a cheap and cute way
"Alright, alright. I don't know about you yet. Let's get it straight. Don't delay me from watching the recitals. Li Shimin didn't want to listen to Li Shen's tirade. His son would definitely not come to see him if he had nothing to do.
"That, there is a lack of a counselor in my house to join the army. Give me one," Li Shen said
"Counseling to join the army? Oh yes. You have been out of the palace for so long, and all the departments of the palace are not yet complete. Only one Xue Rengui is a member of the Imperial Army. Then you have a candidate. Li Shimin remembered that he had not yet sent officials to Li Shen's palace
"Aya, I don't need so many people in my house. Not necessarily. It is fully equipped with hundreds of people. I can't afford it. You don't know how much money it costs me to support them a month when you asked me to recruit all three thousand guards. Li Shen rejected Li Shimin's idea. Indicate that you don't want to open a government office.
Li Shimin looked at Li Shen's painful appearance and knew that Li Shen didn't want to recruit too many people and be too ostentatious. He also showed to the outside world that he didn't have any ideas. Li Shen's guards initially consisted of only 500 people in rotation to guard the palace. It was he who asked Li Shen to recruit all for the paper mill.
"Alright, you're short of that money. I asked you if you have any candidates to join the army" looked at Li Shen's appearance. Li Shimin said helplessly
"Yes. Honglu Temple Chaosan doctor Wang Xuance. I've already talked to him. He was willing to go to the palace to join the army. Li Shen saw that Li Shimin was relieved and immediately said
"Oh? You've all talked about pulling. Tell me what conditions you have offered him. Dr. Asasan will have a chance to fill the vacancy of the five products in the future. Even a four-product vacancy is possible. Li Shimin asked curiously
"Well, it's nothing. Just give a little money. It's a little bit better than him from the fifth grade. Li Shen gestured a little more with his hand
"Say it. Don't let me look it up. Li Shimin said with a straight face when he saw that Li Shen didn't say anything
"Just. . . It's a thousand habits a year. Yongye Tian five hundred. 1,000 acres of land. Give another thousand acres in twenty years. After giving him a pension, he will not take it back. Li Shen said cautiously.
"You're so generous. Yu Lu is a grade with the prime minister. Why don't you treat all the slaves like the prime minister? Li Shimin trembled angrily. This loser, let a five-grade and the prime minister have a salary, so how can he increase his income after that.
"Aye, don't be angry, come and have a cup of tea. Angry, "Li Shen saw that Li Shimin was angry. Hurry up the steps, and don't care about the passover etiquette or anything. Pour tea for Li Shimin.
This wave of operations made Li Shimin laugh angrily. "You can't spend it like this if you have money. If only people knew. The prime minister of the imperial court, Yu Lu, is not as good as a five-grade official, how can he talk about it outside. ”
"Aye, you've miscalculated. It's just money. And Lumi. Field. What about hard labor. And Aya gave them enough reward every year for a hundred or two hundred years. Li Shen began to settle accounts with Li Shimin
"Then you're too tall to join the army. What do you make those lower-level officials think. There are not so many of the four products. "Li Shimin hates Li Shen because iron is not steel, he is too loser
"Aya, a thousand dollars buy horse bones. There is a Wang Hongfu in my house, you know. Help me take care of my business and the affairs of the Royal Estate. Last year, the dividends were more than 2,000. It's several times more than when he did business on his own, otherwise why wouldn't people do their own business and manage the business for me. The two village chiefs of my Huangzhuang still have five habitual dollars a month. Then do things seriously and responsibly, and let you do whatever you want. The workers in my workshop, I told them to go to school and read in the evening after work. No one went. I said that the salary for knowing more than 1,000 words was doubled. You go and look at me, everyone in the big and small Huangzhuang is now literate more than 1,000. I said that those who read well have the opportunity to be promoted to the position of shopkeeper or foreman. The money ranges from five to ten per month. Several times the salary. They are now studying and learning arithmetic. Aye: This is the power of money. Li Shen began his theory of money
"Everyone in your Huangzhuang is literate now?" Li Shimin's focus is on reading and literacy.
"yes. I started a school there a few years ago. Children in Zhuangzi can read for free. People from other villages have to pay money to study. The children of the craftsmen in the workshop can also read for free. And it's also a package to eat. The people in the village have sent their children. It doesn't matter if you read it or not. At least one day of food for the child is saved. In this way, the children of the whole village began to read. Li Shen said,
"Okay, it's good to read. There are 2,000 people in Huangzhuang. It's all about reading and writing. When the next generation doesn't have a husband, they can teach simple literacy on their own. "Li Shimin is happy
"Yes, reading can enlighten one's mind, and reading can make sense. If the people of the Tang Dynasty are all literate and literate. Those who bewitched the people into rebellion. Those who defrauded the people of their money. There will be a lot less. Li Shen then said
"Well, you're right" Li Shimin agreed with Li Shen's words. Then he said
"Why do you want Wang Xuance. Did you know this person before? ”
"I don't know, but I hear from people." Li Shen was afraid that Li Shimin would not give it and would not say much.
"Oh well. I'll write you an edict and ask Wang De to send it to the ministry. You just take it away. Don't mess around all day, though. I heard that you have recruited those children of the official family to your house again today. Don't play too big. Li Shimin finally agreed.
"Don't worry, Ayah. We have big things. We'll see you in three days. Li Shen patted his chest and promised
"Big deal? Don't give me anything big. I can't take it. Li Shimin said while writing a handwritten message
After Li Shimin finished writing the edict, he asked Wang De to send someone to the ministry. Li Shen saw that the matter was done and left. Li Shimin didn't have anything to say to him. Wave his hand and let him go. Li Shen went directly to Honglu Temple.
