Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

The introduction of salt is a pioneering work in the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, although the Ming Dynasty broke through Yuan Dadu and Meng Yuan retreated into the desert grassland, it was never wiped out.

Later, the Tumu Fortress Incident occurred, and the emperor was arrested.

In the Ming Dynasty, dealing with the Mongols in the north was always a problem.

There are many strongholds in the north, more than the Tang Dynasty.

In order to solve the problem of military supplies and food, Zhu Yuanzhang invented the salt introduction system.

Li Shimin asked Li Jing to try to talk.

Li Jing came out and said: "The introduction of salt mentioned by the emperor is really a wonderful strategy."

"Businessmen can obtain salt by transporting supplies to the Protectorate's Mansion and the border strongholds, and gain profits from the sale of salt from the imperial court."

"In this way, the transfer of military funds will not be a problem."

Li Jing said.

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

Li Jing is still good, he is versatile in both civil and military affairs, not only can lead troops to fight, but can also write down the art of war.

So as soon as Li Shimin said it, Li Jing immediately understood.

The other ministers listened and felt that it made sense.

But isn't this obvious?

What's there to say?

Cheng Yaojin yelled: "Li Weigong, everyone knows what you said."

The other ministers laughed, it was not easy for them to say this.

Li Jing shook his head and said with a smile: "If that's all, then it's not surprising."

"The beauty of the salt introduction that the emperor said lies in the back."

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui pricked up their ears to listen this time.

They were not there when Su Yu told Li Shimin about Yan Yinzhi.

Without listening to Su Yu's explanation, even two think tanks couldn't understand the mystery.

"Let's talk, Li Weigong."

Li Shimin smiled slightly.

"Businessmen transport thousands of miles, and the freight must be high."

"Businessmen seek profit. In order to save transportation costs, they must reclaim farmland at the border, recruit manpower, and at the same time make iron smelting weapons to guard their farmland."

"In this way, there will be an army from the Protectorate's Mansion at the border, as well as the private guards of the merchants. The military and civilians will merge together, and the border will be permanent."

Li Jing finished speaking in one breath.

The ministers in the court suddenly realized.

It turned out to be the case.

The introduction of salt is really a wonderful strategy for governing the country, and it solves the border defense problem of iodized salt and Duhufu together.

Merchants bought iodized salt from the imperial court, which could be quickly transported to designated areas for sale, and common people could quickly eat iodized salt to treat big neck disease.

In order to obtain Yanyin, merchants will transport military resources to the border, and at the same time cultivate land on the border to strengthen the border defense.

Two things, solved together.

Miaozai, Miaozai.

The court ministers exclaimed that the emperor has become a god-like existence.

"Your Majesty's ingenious strategy can be remembered in history."

Yu Shinan exclaimed.

"Salt introduction can ensure the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty forever, and the border will always be solid."

"What the emperor thinks is beyond the reach of my courtiers."

"It's wonderful, it's wonderful."

The ministers of the DPRK and China talked a lot and were convinced by Li Shimin's ingenious strategy.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other, amazed that Su Yu is really a genius.

The ministers in the court didn't know it, thinking it was Li Shimin's invention.

But they knew very well that this must be Su Yu's conspiracy, so don't think about it.

Such a clever strategy, even our two think tanks of the Tang Dynasty have no idea, how could the emperor come up with it.

"Wonderful, wonderful."

Fang Xuanling pondered.

"I have nothing to say other than to say it is wonderful."

Du Ruhui said.

Wei Zheng was even more terrified, and thought to himself: Su Yu has such a genius, he can not only treat the big neck disease, but also solve the problem of the border guards.

This person is unpredictable.

Hou Junji's face remained calm, but he was shocked in his heart.

The last time Gaochang was destroyed, Li Shimin gave a timetable for the attack.

The subsequent battles were exactly the same, exactly the same.

Now Yan Yinzhi has solved the military funding problem of the Duhufu in one fell swoop.

What's wrong, Your Majesty?Why suddenly become so smart?It doesn't make sense.

Yuan Tiangang!
Hou Junji immediately thought of Yuan Tiangang.

Only this guy can give such a clever plan.

This stinky Taoist priest said that he retired to the mountains and forests, but in fact he was still secretly manipulating the government of the Tang Dynasty.

This Yuan Tiangang, the older he gets, the smarter he gets.

"This is two in one, iodized salt and salt are introduced together."

"Zhongshuling Fang Xuanling, discuss with Liu Zhenghui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, and Li Yaoshi, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, the three of you."

"The court meeting is here, let's retreat!"

Li Shimin retreated with a smile.

Leaving the ministers to lament the ingenious plan.

Li Jing came over and bowed deeply to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

"The two of you are worthy of being the think tanks of the Tang Dynasty. They actually came up with such a clever plan. I admire them."

Li Jing thought it was Fang and Du's idea.

"Yeah, as expected of a think tank."

Yu Shinan pays homage.

Chai Shao exclaimed: "You two are really conspiring, today I am the host, please get drunk."

Wei Zheng came over and said with a chuckle, "My lord, Drunken Tang is not cheap."

"The two of you came up with such a brilliant plan, it's worth my money."

Chai Shao laughed.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui kept smiling, and complained in their hearts: How should I tell you, we really didn't come up with it.

If we have this level, we dare to point at the emperor and scold him.

"Ashamed, ashamed."

Fang and Du laughed.

I can't think of any good words other than shame.

"What are you ashamed of, I didn't expect you two old men to have ideas."

"My old Cheng also said that someone is pointing the emperor behind his back, so it's you."

Cheng Yaojin laughed.

"Come on, don't be humble."

Chai Shao took the two of them to drink, and Wei Zheng followed.

Wei Zheng wanted to see Fang Du and his expression when they were drinking.

It was obviously Su Yu's credit, but it was placed on their heads.

Hou Junji watched Fang Du go out surrounded by a group of ministers, and secretly laughed in his heart: A group of idiots are clearly the scheme of Yuan Tiangang, you invited the wrong people!

Li Shimin returned to the back court, overjoyed in his heart.

"Guanyin maidservant, Guanyin maidservant!"

Li Shimin entered the room and shouted.

The queen stood up to greet her.

"Chen and concubine meet the emperor."

"Is it agreed by the court today?"

the queen asked with a smile.

"It's settled. They already know about the iodized salt, so it's not a big deal."

"It's just about the introduction of salt. Guess what expressions they had at that time?"

Li Shimin laughed.

"They were all shocked."

Li Shimin was happy.

"The concubine was also shocked when she heard about Yan Yinzhi."

"Such strategies are beyond the imagination of ordinary people."

"Kill two birds with one stone, kill two birds with one stone."

The queen sighed.

"Only Li Yaoshi thinks fast in the civil and military affairs of the Man Dynasty. As soon as I say it, he will immediately know the benefits."

"So, the ministers of the DPRK and China are also reliable."

Li Shimin exclaimed.

The others were dumbfounded, a little depressed.

"The courtiers who followed the emperor to fight the world are getting old, shouldn't we choose a new batch?"

said the Queen.

Fighting the world together is not too young, and I feel a little weak in succession.

"It's not necessary, there are a batch hidden in Sujiazhuang."

"After the showdown between Su Yu and Su Yu, all the talents in Sujiazhuang will enter the court and become officials, and there will be no one left."

Li Shimin was drinking tea, plotting Su Yu in his heart.

"Your Majesty, are you trying to poach someone?"

The queen laughed.

"Yes, if I don't dig his wall, whose?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly.

"Has the emperor forgotten the lesson of letting Shangguan Yun poach Lao Chen?"

"Old Chen didn't come over, Shangguan Yun became the daughter-in-law of Sujiazhuang."

The queen laughed.

Li Shimin laughed and said, "Yes, I almost forgot about this, I'll talk about it later."
