Qin Feng responded outside the door, then rushed back to the East Palace.

At this moment, Li Jing finally realized, "Your Highness...Your Highness, you mean to give the Grand Duke's Art of War to the last general instead of lending it to the last general."

Li Jing stared blankly at Li Chengqian and couldn't believe it.

Li Chengqian responded: "It's just a military book, General Li doesn't have to take it to heart."

It's just a military book.

The three of Li Jing were speechless looking at Li Chengqian. They once doubted Li Chengqian's understanding of this art of war.

But then they were relieved, after all, they were facing Li Chengqian.

This prince cannot look at him from the perspective of ordinary people.

lean less...

Qin Feng rushed back to the Ministry of War with a wooden box in his arms, and handed the wooden box to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian took it over, dug out the Grand Duke's Art of War and handed it to Li Jing.

Li Jing straightened his clothes, and took the Grand Duke's Art of War into his hands with slightly trembling hands.

He couldn't believe it, did the Grand Duke's Art of War come into his hands so easily?

"His Royal Highness... the last general..."

Li Jing hesitated, unable to express his gratitude to Li Chengqian in words.

Li Chengqian said casually: "It's just an art of war. You don't have to do this, General Li. No matter how good the art of war is, it's just a dead thing. If you can't meet a good master, it doesn't matter how superb the art of war is."

Li Jing looked at the Grand Duke's Art of War in his hand, and said embarrassedly: "Although that is the case, this thing is really too precious."

Li Chengqian said: "This art of war is not given to you for nothing, I have conditions."

"That's really great." Hearing that there were conditions, Li Jing felt a lot less guilty, "Your Highness, you just say it's okay, and you will definitely do your best in the end."

Li Chengqian said in a deep voice: "I hope you will dismantle this Grand Duke's Art of War into a document, and teach it to the students of the academy in the military academy."

"The last general takes orders." Li Jing said without hesitation.

What kind of conditions did he think Li Chengqian would put forward, if he preached and taught his career to clear up doubts, he would do it without Li Chengqian's instructions.

Li Chengqian nodded in satisfaction, "In this case, I will hand over all the military books to you for management, but you must remember that these are the treasures of the military academy, not your personal belongings, Li Jing. .”

"Don't worry, Your Highness." Li Jing took the wooden box from Li Chengqian and said firmly.

Looking at the wooden box in Li Jing's hand, Su Dingfang and Qin Shubao surrounded him.

Li Chengqian can even produce the Grand Duke's Art of War, and these Art of War put together with the Tai Gong's Art of War are certainly not ordinary things.

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and said, "Open it and have a look."

click...

Li Jing tore off the lid of the wooden box and took out the first book inside.

"Sun Tzu's Art of War!" The three said in shock in unison.

They really didn't expect that in Li Chengqian's hands, besides Taigong's Art of War, he also had Sun Wu's Art of War.

The three raised their heads and looked at Li Chengqian in a daze. They only felt that this scene was really shocking.

Li Chengqian signaled them to continue.

At the same time, Li Jing took out the second military book.

"Mundy's new book."

The three of them were once again shocked by the military book drawn from the wooden box.

Li Chengqian smiled wryly, he didn't expect the three of them to be so happy when they picked up the Art of War blind box.

When Li Chengqian left the Ministry of War.

Li Jing still tightly hugged the wooden box full of tactics in his arms.

In his eyes, these tactics are as precious as his life.

But Li Chengqian didn't care, because he had rubbed many copies of these military books, and besides, these things had already been printed in his mind.

three days later.

The second martial arts test officially begins, discussing the Battle of Changping.

In addition to Duan Yulong and Ning Rong, the poor children, the focus of this scene is Chai Lingwu, Fang Jun, Changsun Huan, Du He and other second-generation officials.

Although the poor family performed well in the first round of martial arts exams, they snatched a hundred places abruptly.

But in the field of military strategy, it is undoubtedly a difficult test for the poor.

It is difficult for them to solve even the most basic food and clothing problems on weekdays, let alone buy military books.

But this is all in the past.

Now the people of Tang Dynasty have bid farewell to the hunger and cold, and the money and food in their hands are gradually becoming more abundant.

I don't know how many gifts are given to the children of the humble family who study and practice martial arts.

But there is a process for everything, and it needs to go through the baptism of time.

After the evaluation of the three chief judges, Li Jing, Qin Shubao and Su Dingfang, they competed for the top ten in the second martial arts exam.

They are Changsun Huan, Duan Yulong, Du He, Ning Rong, Chai Lingwu, Dugumou...

Among them, there are three disciples from poor families and seven disciples from rich families.

This result is reasonable for everyone.

After all, it is already a very remarkable thing for a child from a poor family to occupy three seats.

The fathers of these top-ranked second-generation officials are all political masters who can make the Tang Dynasty tremble.

After the second martial arts test, Duan Yulong, Ning Rong, and Sun Duanfang officially entered Li Chengqian's sight.

Because these three people are the poor families in the top ten.

It is enough to show their hard work and talent that the children of poor families have fought so hard.

After the second martial arts test, there will be a martial arts contest in the Golden Temple.

This game will compete for the top three in the martial arts test.

However, Li Chengqian was not so interested in this exam anymore. After all, what he selected was a military general, not a general with high martial arts skills.

What he needs most is strategic vision and strategic literacy.

From now on, he must start to lay out the west.

Sassanid Persia has been in peril for the past two years. Queen Bran will definitely agree to his conditions and allocate a territory to Datang as a military base.

And the western battlefield will also be the first trial ground for the students of the Military Academy.

After Datang opened up the situation in the western battlefield, the world pattern was basically finalized.

Chapter 509 The Economic Crisis of Qinghuo Trading Company

The seventh day after the second martial arts test.

The martial arts competition in the Golden Palace officially began.

What is surprising about this battle is that Ning Rong actually won the No.1 in the Golden Palace Tournament.

Originally, Dugu Mou was the most powerful among the second generation of officials, and he was also favored by everyone.

However, he was defeated by Ning Rong in the end and ranked second.

After the comprehensive evaluation, Changsun Huan is still No.1, No.2 is Ning Rong, No.3 is Dugumou, and Duan Yulong is ranked fifth.

There is no way around this, after all, in the military strategy exam, there is indeed a gap between the children of poor families and the children of wealthy families.

But for the poor family, the performance is already very good.

After the martial arts examination, the military academy was established and started.

The top 150 candidates for the martial arts test all entered the military academy for further study, and all expenses were borne by the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Li Shimin was appointed as the dean, and Li Jing was appointed as the vice-president to take over the power.

So far, the training of generals in the Tang Dynasty has officially entered the right track.

The official opening time of the Military Academy is September [-]st.

This time was also specially selected by Li Chengqian, so it should be regarded as a small commemoration.

On the third day after the military academy started, Li Chengqian was invited by Zheng Qian to Qinghuo Trading Company.

Under the huge investment, Qinghuo Trading Company finally experienced an economic crisis.

After undertaking the construction of traffic roads and drainage system, Qinghuo Trading Company finally couldn't make ends meet.

Chang'an City...

Qinghuo Trading Company Headquarters.

Li Chengqian, Wu Sui and Zheng Qian are discussing this matter in the conference hall on the top floor.

"His Royal Highness, if it is not the case, we are still preparing to start in the traditional industry. Although the profit is lower, but fortunately, the audience is large and can share a lot of pressure for the business."

"Moreover, Qinghuo Commercial Bank's involvement in traditional industries can also promote the development of Datang's economy."

Zheng Qian looked up to Li Chengqian, who was at the top, and expressed his thoughts.

"No..." Li Chengqian rebuffed straight away, "Although it will promote economic development in the short term, in the long run, it will hurt the foundation of other commercial firms in Datang and compress their living environment."

Wu Jue echoed from the side: "What His Royal Highness said is that the current size of Qinghuo Trading Company is too huge. Even if we want to control it, the impact on the industry will be huge."

"This will inadvertently destroy many start-up companies. In the long run, it is really not a good thing. It is undoubtedly killing the chicken and picking the egg."

Zheng Qian frowned slightly, "Since we can't increase revenue, we can only reduce expenditure."

The economic crisis that Qinghuo Trading Company is facing now is something that Zheng Qian has never thought about. With the ability of Qinghuo Trading Company to attract money, how could there be a day when there will be a shortage of money?

But it did happen.

"Throttling is not enough..." Li Chengqian shook his head, "Every clerk in Qinghuo Trading Company earns hard money. It's not that the firm has insufficient revenue, but too much investment money. We can't reduce the number of clerks because of this." their hard-earned money."

Li Chengqian would absolutely not be able to squeeze the employees.

The air was heavy, and the three remained silent.

Wu Jue and Zheng Qian had thought of all the ways they could think of, but they would not invite Li Chengqian if they had a way.

Boom, boom, boom...

In the silent meeting hall, there was only the sound of Li Chengqian's finger tapping on the table.

The two looked up at Li Chengqian, no joy or anger could be seen on their quiet faces.

"Yes." Li Chengqian's face showed joy, "We can add a gaming industry."

"The gaming industry?"

Wu Jue and Zheng Qian looked at each other in blank dismay, very confused.

Li Chengqian explained: "Let me give you an example. We can issue a kind of bill. We tentatively designate it as Qinghuo Gambling. Each ticket costs ten yuan. We add three prizes. If you win the first prize, you will get a prize." 500 taels of gold, the second prize will get 100 taels of gold, the third prize will get 50 taels of gold, and the fourth prize will get five Wen coins."

"what?"

Both of them were amazed!

Is this open source?This is clearly a benefit, is it clearly a gift of money...

"His Royal Highness, this... I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Our Qinghuo Trading Company is already in a difficult situation. If we do this again, it will make the situation worse."

Wu Jue said helplessly, she felt that Li Chengqian's project made the Qinghuo Trading Company, which was not wealthy, worse.

"It's Your Highness..." Zheng Qian echoed, "We don't have any more money to do this."

The two had the same idea, they thought that Li Chengqian was giving money.

"Hehe..." Li Chengqian said with a light smile, "You two, don't worry, I haven't finished my words yet, this matter is not that simple."

"We first make 33 small red wooden balls and write numbers on them, and then make [-] small blue wooden balls and write numbers on them."

"During the draw we draw six red balls and one blue ball in turn.
