Datang: Integrate three times the combat power of Lv Bu at the beginning

Li Chengqian explained the current situation of landlords and farmers in the Tang Dynasty.

Landlords who exploit peasant households have piles of grain piled up like mountains and countless gold and silver in their houses, while peasant households who work hard to cultivate the land have no clothes to cover their bodies and no food to eat.

Between farmers and landlords, I really made the wrong choice. I chose a group of wolves who would kill Datang at any time.

At this moment, he finally realized who is the mainstay supporting Datang's development.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Do you really have a remedy?"

Li Chengqian was confident, and said lightly: "One month, one month later, I will definitely let you see the hope of land reform."

Li Shimin looked at his serious look and nodded. At this moment, he firmly believed in Li Chengqian's words, "Okay, we will officially start the implementation in a month's time."

Listening to Li Chengqian's confident words, Li Shimin also knew in his heart that with his own support and his son's ability, the land reform was more effective with half the effort.

lean less...

Li Shimin got up and said: "Let's go! Let's go to other places for a while."

Changsun Wuji heard the words, put some broken silver on the table, and followed Li Shimin out of the teahouse.

As soon as she left the door, Hu Niuniang chased her out, "Guests, I have given you too much money."

Li Shimin waved his hand, without turning his head, "It will be considered that we support the poor farmers in the village."

Hu Niuniang looked at the leaving figure, clutching the broken silver tightly in her hand, and waved: "I will replace them, thank you."

After leaving the teahouse, several people continued to walk towards the village.

When they were about to leave the village, a voice suddenly sounded from behind them.

"Too...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! General Liu!"

Hearing this, everyone turned around to look, and a tall and straight figure appeared behind them.It's just that his two sleeves are blowing in the wind, they are empty!

Liu Sheng looked at him and said in shock, "Zhao Wenyuan!"

After saying that, Liu Sheng rushed forward and hugged him in his arms, "Brother, I've been looking for you so hard!"

"Why did you leave without saying goodbye!"

Zhao Wenyuan said with moist eyes: "I'm already a useless person, I don't want to cause trouble for the general anymore."

He looked at the people behind him and said: "Craftsman Zhao Wenyuan, I pay my respects to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and all the princes."

Li Shimin said softly: "Mianli, do you know us?"

Zhao Wenyuan said softly: "Caomin once went to Chang'an City, and met His Majesty and all the princes on the day of sending off the heroic soul."

Li Shimin nodded, "Have you ever worked in Liangzhou?"

Zhao Wenyuan responded: "Caomin used to be the head of the team in Liangzhou City, but Caomin was incompetent. When the Turks first attacked Liangzhou, they lost both arms. Since then, they have been reduced to useless people and cannot fight for the country!"

"Originally, the grassroots didn't want to burden Datang, and wanted to die, but they never wanted to be rescued by His Royal Highness, and someone sent me back to my hometown."

Then he suddenly looked at Liu Sheng, frowning, "General Liu, your left arm?"

Liu Sheng shook his head helplessly, "My left arm was cut off when the enemy rushed into Liangzhou City, but fortunately, my right arm is still healthy, and I can still fight the enemy!"

Hearing what they said, Li Shimin felt very uncomfortable, but at this time he had already realized that this wasn't an outing that Li Chengqian deliberately arranged for him.

Chapter 72

Li Shimin thought to himself, his son really has a heart. If he hadn't seen and heard these things with his own eyes, no matter who told him, he would definitely not believe it.

a little while...

Zhao Wenyuan said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, since you are here, let's go to Caomin's house and sit down."

Li Shimin nodded, "Okay, then I won't bother you."

He really wanted to see how the soldiers who lost both arms lived, but no matter what, life must be very difficult.

Zhao Wenyuan said hastily: "Your Majesty has ruined the grassroots. It is an honor for the grassroots that you can go."

Following behind him, he walked through an alley and a short muddy path to Zhao Wenyuan's house.

Contrary to their imagination, the small yard of Zhao Wenyuan's house is neat and tidy, and the front of the door is very clean.

"Daddy, Daddy...you're back!"

Outside the door, a pair of five or six-year-old twins rushed towards Zhao Wenyuan, their faces brimming with happiness.

Looking at the pair of children, Zhao Wenyuan's eyes were full of tenderness. Fortunately, he was rescued by the prince at that time, otherwise he would never see this lovely pair of children again.

crunch...

A plainly dressed woman opened the door and came out, "Wen Yuan, are there any guests at home?"

Zhao Wenyuan said to her: "Xiang Ping, hurry up and say hello, this is Your Majesty, this is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Hearing this, the woman hurried over, "The daughter of the people has seen His Majesty, and His Highness the Crown Prince." The two children ran behind their mother, imitating their mother, and said in a milky voice.

"I have seen His Majesty, I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Hehe, hurry up and get rid of the courtesy."

He didn't expect that Zhao Wenyuan had such lovely twins. At that time, he wanted to commit suicide because he was afraid of dragging down the Liangzhou defenders.

In the face of the small family and the country, he resolutely chose the country, which can be said to be unyielding.

These lieutenant generals of the Great Tang Army are the mainstays of the Great Tang, and their loyalty to the Great Tang is truly evident from the sun and the moon.

At this moment, Li Shimin finally understood that Li Chengqian's decision to kill Zhang Liang's adopted son was unquestionable and decisive.

These people had thrown their heads with him outside the city of Liangzhou, sprinkled blood, stained the battlefield with blood, and resisted the Turkic attack with their flesh and blood. They were all his life and death brothers, and they were all loyal soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

At the beginning, it was really inappropriate for me to plead for Zhang Liang's adopted son who murdered the wife of a soldier who died for the country.

Now, even if the prince made such a mistake, he would not be merciful. To do so would be a little sorry for the soldiers guarding the border.

Entering the small courtyard of Zhao Wenyuan's house, the inside is very tidy, there are many things, but they are chaotic and orderly.

The ground is full of woven baskets, piled one after another in the corner of the small courtyard, very chic.

Xiang Ping hurriedly welcomed them into the room, "Your Majesty, please come inside, Your Highness the Crown Prince, the courtyard is a little messy, I'm laughing at you."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "No, no."

He saw that it was not big, but it was still a warm home, and he felt a little more warm in his heart.

After entering the house of Zhao Wenyuan's house, the house was not too big, but it was very tidy. The group of people stuffed the house tightly.

"Your Majesty, the humble house has nothing to entertain you, only this light tea." Xiang Ping brought some tea over.

Cheng Yaojin hastily picked it up.

Li Shimin said to Zhao Wenyuan: "I see that your yard is full of woven baskets. Are you selling woven baskets for a living now?"

Zhao Wenyuan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are half right. We do make a living by weaving baskets, but we don't need to go to the market or the square market in Chang'an City to sell them."

Hearing this, Li Shimin showed doubts, "Aren't you going to sell it? Is there someone coming to buy this woven basket?"

Zhao Wenyuan smiled and said: "Hehe, Your Majesty, you guessed half right again, the Zheng family opened a business named Lan Huo in Chang'an City, and they opened several new shops in Dongxifang City, specializing in selling some handicrafts and weaving products. .”

"And the source of these items is made by us veterans and their families who can no longer go to the battlefield."

"Last month, someone from the Zheng family said that this is specially for us people, and the purpose is to allow us veteran families who have no farming ability to continue to live well."

"Because their reputation is not very good, many people don't believe it. It was not until later that they paid for the raw materials for us first, and some people gradually believed it."

"After working for a while, the Zheng family sent people to bring money or food to the door to receive the goods. Although the income was not much, the family's food and clothing were absolutely no problem."

"I really didn't expect that Qiwang of the Five Surnames, who has always only had interests in his eyes and regards human life as nothing, could do such a benevolent act."

"I've been to Fangshi. Their shops, apart from taxes and rent, basically don't make much money. They're all purely for helping veteran families like us."

"When I wanted to commit suicide, half of the reason was that I didn't want to burden my family. I broke both arms, and it would only be a burden when I returned home."

"Well, when I first came back, the family was only living on pensions. If they wanted to be tenant farmers, they had to pledge their children to the landlord. Even if I died, I would never agree."

After listening to Zhao Wenyuan's words, everyone fell silent, and turned their gazes to Li Chengqian.

Zheng's, Lanhuo Trading Company.

They don't need to think about it, it's the prince's handwriting.

Pointing at the five surnames and Qiwang to help the common people, hehe, don't be ridiculous, even if the Tang Dynasty died, they would never do such a benevolent and righteous thing.

If they don't bully the people, that's already considered a high incense, and they are also pointing at them to help the poor.

Li Shimin had mixed feelings in his heart, this...

He stared at Li Chengqian, but the child still looked calm and calm.

Obviously he has paid a lot for Datang silently, why is there no trace of arrogance!

Li Shimin couldn't help but said: "Chengqian..."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian turned his gaze, "Father?"

Li Shimin said: "Tell me the truth, does this Lanhuo firm have anything to do with you?"

Although he knew very well in his heart that he must have opened the Blue Fire Firm, and the Zheng family was definitely ordered by him, but he just wanted to hear what Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian said lightly: "The Lanhuo Trading Company is indeed run by Erchen, and Erchen has already discussed the details with the Zheng family. The Lanhuo Trading Company will center on Chang'an City and cover all counties in the Tang Dynasty. In the end, let everyone A family of soldiers who have contributed to the Tang Dynasty does not have to suffer from hunger and cold."

"Of course, there will be many difficulties on this road, but Erchen firmly believes that even if it is a sea of ​​swords, it will not be able to stop the progress of Lanhuo Trading Company."

At this time, he didn't need to sell this trick anymore, if he did it, he did it, if he didn't do it, he didn't do it, and he didn't expect Li Shimin to reward him.

After all, it won't take long for him to be as rich as an enemy and become a financial giant in the Tang Dynasty!

Chapter 73

Li Chengqian's words were like a blast of thunder, resounding over everyone's heads.

Even though they already believed in this matter, they were still extremely shocked when Li Chengqian said it himself.

The prince really paid too much for the people of the Tang Dynasty, repelling the Turks, presiding over the ink corruption case, selling fine salt at a low price, opening a business without profit, and helping these soldiers who fought for the country.

Every pile and every piece reflects the prince's benevolence and righteousness.

At this moment, Li Shimin just wanted to reach out and touch Li Chengqian. He realized that he owed this child too much.

What kind of foresight is this, what kind of foresight is this, so that he can put the people of the world in his heart.

It is such a demeanor to open a commercial firm in the name of the Zheng family to help these retired soldiers and their families, rather than in the name of the prince. Li Chengqian seems to have not considered such a good opportunity to gain prestige.

He sacrificed his own interests to do these things, as if he wanted to do these things alone, instead of trying to achieve any purpose through these things, which was a bit scary.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin will start from the purpose of everything, from the benefit, whether it should do it; from the risk, whether it should win; from the ability, whether it should do it; Not worth it.

Having been in a high position for a long time, it seems that I have developed such a habit. I have never simply wanted to do something without any purpose and without asking for any return.

It's not that they haven't thought about these things, and it's not that they haven't discussed them, but in the end they couldn't come up with a clear plan and let it go.

Looking back again, the many princes of my own who have lived in the deep palace for a long time, one by one, live a luxurious life of rich clothes and fine food every day, and are still complacent about being able to see more of me every day, and being able to give me a small gift, but Calculate each other.

I am tired of pleasing myself and pleasing myself every day.

As the prince, Li Chengqian usually didn't pay much attention to him, let alone please him, except for the necessary greetings.

Except for occasional small gifts for his mother, Li Chengqian never seemed to try to please anyone.

He never looks at anyone's face when he does things, including himself, the emperor's father.

Both are princes, and they also live in the palace, so why is there such a big gap.

a long time……

Li Shimin said: "Chengqian... tell me what you think and what plan you have in mind."

Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian took a sip of tea and said lightly: "My ministers have always believed in one sentence, empty talk harms the country, and hard work rejuvenates the country."

"No matter how much you think, if you don't do it, it's just talking on paper, which is meaningless. Only by doing it down-to-earth can the country prosper."

"Which dynasty, which generation of foolish kings are said to go on, and it's not all based on practical actions. They are willing to cut themselves and dare to pull the foolish kings down. If we don't have such courage, how can the Tang Dynasty prosper and how can the people be well-being!"

"I know that many things are difficult, but I firmly believe that as long as you do it, the task will be half successful. We can cross the river by feeling the stones. It's just that we walk slower, so what does it matter? As long as we start, we can see the hope of victory."

"My son is just starting from scratch. Today we help the retired soldiers and their families around Chang'an City to solve their food and clothing. Then we will be able to help the retired soldiers and their families in the entire Tang Dynasty to solve their food and clothing. In the future We will be able to help the people of the entire Tang Dynasty solve their food and clothing problems."
