After hearing Li Shen's words, Li Shimin glanced at Li Shen with his eyes, and then said in a deep voice without raising his eyelids:

"Li Shen, do you think that I haven't beaten you for a long time, and that I am old.

Or are you now starting to miss the feeling of being beaten by me? ”

The emperor secretly sells weapons to the enemy country, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, it can make people laugh to death when they say it.

How did his son come up with it, he really didn't go to the house for three days.

"That, Aya, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously.

But then again, this is an opportunity, Xue Yantuo has been disturbing my Datang for so many years, and finally there is a chance to destroy them.

How can we give up? Li Shen still wants to fight for it.

"Okay, don't talk about it, Old Ten, there are things you can do, but this thing can't work,

Think about your current situation, I don't want you to be lucky, you just need to care about the construction of your important city now.

You don't want to get involved in Xue Yantuo's affairs, except for weapons, you can sell anything, I will never stop it, the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is very big, you can't afford it, and I can't keep it.

There is also the construction of Chiling, I need you to keep an eye on it, 100,000 laborers, the trouble is too great. At least you have to be there in the early stage.

I will rest assured that you will be allowed to take your escort with you, and I will give you 3,000 cavalry to protect your safety.

You must be fast, I asked Wei Guogong, and his advice to me was that Tubo had united with the Western Turks, and it was possible to launch an attack on my Tang Dynasty at any time.

The mutual market is just a front for them. ”

Li Shimin said very solemnly, he talked to Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, and Li Jing deduced the result based on the information he had summarized.

Li Shimin still believes in the judgment of this military god.

After Li Shen heard this, he knew that he had no chance with Xue Yantuo, Li Shimin didn't want him to take risks, and he couldn't lose his life because of making money.

And it also attaches great importance to the Chiling Yaoyi.

"Aye, if the tea and horse market is just a pretense, then is it necessary for us to invest manpower and material resources to build it?

It's better to use the money to deal with future attacks. Li Shen said.

It costs money to fight a war, and the government soldiers say that there are many things that they decide, but large-scale wars, especially wars that have been fought for a long time,

In order to win, the imperial court will choose to distribute some good weapons, or unified standard weapons, to maintain combat effectiveness.

There are also military rations, forage for horses, salt, and vegetables, which are impossible for the government soldiers to bring by themselves.

Therefore, the consumption of tens of thousands of troops in a month is astronomical.

"No, you don't understand, Chiling is located on a key road, and if you stop Chiling, they won't be able to converge with the Western Turks.

There are only a few roads that Tubo can get to the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, the garrison in Chiling is equivalent to inserting a nail in the Tubo Forte, even if their army is overwhelming, we can launch a sneak attack from behind them at any time.

Therefore, your Chiling fortress is very important, and it must be indestructible. Li Shimin explained for Li Shen.

Li Shen also understood after hearing Li Shimin's explanation, and assured Li Shimin:

"Don't worry, Aya, you will definitely make Chiling to be indestructible. We will also finish building the key eups as soon as possible. ”

Hearing Li Shen's assurance, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.

Li Shen left, returned in vain, Bai was happy, when Wang Xuance knew that Li Shen returned in vain, Wang Xuance was not too surprised.

"Lord, the minister is guilty, he didn't think about it just now, and after the prince entered the palace, the minister realized that this matter could not be done after deep thought.

We can sell anything to other countries, but we can't sell weapons and armor.

If the enemy of the palace is seized by the handle and accuses the prince of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, the prince will be difficult to argue at that time.

It seems that His Majesty is wise and has thought of this, so he rejected you, Lord Wang. Wang Xuance pleaded guilty.

"Alas~~ This king also figured it out just now, this matter is indeed a bit unreliable. But this king just wants to make some money.

Now that such a big city has to be completed within a year, and King Ji's Mansion may not be able to afford it. ”

Li Shen sighed, if the city is to be built, the shops are rented, and the taxes from the transaction are added, Li Shen can indeed be said to be a million profits.

However, the upfront investment is indeed very large, with high investment and high return.

"Come on, bring Wang Hongfu here." Li Shen shouted outside the door.

Soon Wang Hongfu ran in out of breath.

"Lord Wang, what happened to be so anxious to find a villain?" Wang Hongfu asked.

"Let's sit down and rest." Li Shen pointed to the chair next to him and said.

"Your lord, please give me orders."

"Lao Wang, the important towns in the northwest need a lot of money, and the materials also have to be considered, I asked you to find a suitable place to build a cement workshop in the western prefecture and county, how did you find it?"

Li Shen's small workshop is now struggling to build roads, let alone build a city.

"Back to the prince, I have found seven or eight locations, but I don't know if we built the workshop ourselves, or handed it over to others as the prince said?" Wang Hongfu replied.

"You go to contact some big businessmen, those who have a close relationship with us, who have strong strength, and go to heaven and earth in three days, and we will have a bidding meeting.

Cement is actually not an important thing for us, there are too many places to use in the future, and it is impossible for us to focus on firing cement.

Remember to try to find Chang'an, and your family should be in Chang'an. Li Shen commanded.

"It's the prince." Wang Hongfu agreed, and then suddenly thought of something and said.

"By the way, Lord Wang, we now have some money in the treasury, and this month's income is about six or seven hundred thousand yuan.

There is also the rent of the industrial park, which is about 1.78 million yuan. ”

"So much?" Wang Xuance was surprised. That's so much money for a year's rent, and I don't count other expenses.

But how do you know that Li Shen frowned,

"Why is it so, we calculated that the annual rent for the first three years would be about 3.5 million yuan."

Seeing that Li Shen was a little unhappy, Wang Hongfu hurriedly explained:

"Lord Wang, now our shops and warehouses are only rented out sixty percent, and there are some of our old customers, and the villain is in charge of giving them some reductions, but only in the first year."

"Well," Li Shen nodded after hearing this, sixty percent is still about the same, it may be the reason that the time is too short now, and there will be more in the future.

As for Wang Hongfu's statement that he would give people a waiver, Li Shen didn't care, as the CEO of the palace, he didn't even have this right, so what else could he do.

Li Shen still trusts Wang Hongfu very much, even if he is a little greedy, Li Shen doesn't care.

Of course, he has not been found to have done anything like this so far.

Wang Xuance on the side was very surprised, he didn't expect that Li Shen had invested a lot of manpower and material resources to build an industrial park for several years, and there would be such a big benefit.
