Forced to start the game, summon a hundred thousand snow dragon riders

The position where these two strangers stood happened to be the most prominent position in the Golden Luan Hall.

This made all civil and military officials stunned.

What is the origin of these two people?

If it was in the past, they would definitely come forward and scold them, accusing the two of them of treason and treason.

but now.

What kind of storms and waves have the civil and military officials never seen?

They have already learned to be smart.

Around His Majesty, strange faces and mysterious figures would appear from time to time.

Each of these mysterious characters is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

It's not something their courtiers can afford to offend.

Seeing His Majesty's expression of turning a blind eye, they knew that these two people must have obtained His Majesty's permission to stand in the most prominent position of the court officials.

Otherwise, he would have been thrown out by Cao Zhengchun long ago.

"Dear dear ministers, I want to announce a major appointment to you this morning."

Just when the officials' eyes flickered, Li Xiu's voice came from the Dragon Throne.

It made Baiguan's heart tighten.

"Since the Great Tang Dynasty purged the court, the post of prime minister has been vacant."

"Now, I have finally found a suitable candidate to be my Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty."

"I declare that Wang Anshi will be the left minister of the Tang Dynasty and the order of Zhongshu, and Zhang Juzheng will be the right minister of the Tang Dynasty and the order of the secretary!"

"The two are both Zaizhi of the Great Tang Dynasty, the heads of all officials!"

The voice fell.

The ministers were shocked.

Obviously, he didn't expect that if His Majesty didn't make a move, he would directly appoint two prime ministers!

Moreover, neither of these two prime ministers had held any official positions in the Tang court before!

Among the hundred officials.

Minister of the Ministry of Rites came out, cupped his hands towards Li Xiu, and said, "Your Majesty, the position of Chief Minister of the Tang Dynasty is so important, how can we appoint two inexperienced people to take on this important task?"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately got the approval of many officials.

Even if His Majesty looks down on them.

It's not like appointing two grassroots people to take the positions of left and right prime ministers, right?

This is too sloppy!

No experience?

Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng looked at each other, and both of them laughed.

The two of them.

They can be regarded as the level of eternal fame.

Some people say they have no experience.

It seems that the two of them had anticipated the current situation, and immediately Wang Anshi stepped out and said loudly: "Please give us a one-year deadline."

"Within one year, if the two of us cannot make the Tang Empire politically clear, rich and powerful, it means that the two of us are not qualified for the post of prime minister. At that time, there is no need to bother you to impeach me. I will resign myself!"

As soon as this word comes out.

Immediately shocked the civil and military officials.

Within a year, make the Tang Empire politically clear, rich and powerful?

Whoever will be the prime minister will not dare to make such a guarantee!

Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng are so confident, do they really have some skills?

"Then set a deadline of one year according to what the two lovers have played!"

Li Xiu nodded smoothly, "I, a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, have always lived with the able! The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility!"

"After one year, it will be up to me and all the officials to judge whether you two have the ability to serve as the prime minister of my Great Tang!"

See His Majesty has spoken.

Naturally, the ministers couldn't say anything more, so they all bowed their hands to Li Xiu, "The ministers respectfully obey His Majesty's will!"

If within a year, Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng can really implement the strategy of enriching the country and strengthening the army, and bring the Tang Empire to a higher level.

Then there is nothing wrong with letting these two be prime ministers.

As for Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng.

Of course Li Xiu was full of confidence.

With him, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, as the backing for the two of them.

The two of them can completely let go and do it without any worries.

"Your Majesty, these are the nine articles of the new law drafted by the Minister and Mr. Zhang Youxiang last night after discussion. Please have a look at your Majesty."

After confirming the positions of the left and right prime ministers, Wang Anshi took out a memorial from his bosom and handed it to the eunuch who was close to him.

The close eunuch will submit the memorial.

Li Xiu opened it and took a look.

It is roughly a comprehensive version of Wang Anshi's Reform + Zhang Juzheng's New Deal.

By the way, combined with the actual situation of Datang.

"The Green Crop Law and Market Change Law mentioned by Wang Zuoxiang are actually loans from the imperial court to farmers and merchants to achieve the purpose of revitalizing the agriculture and commerce of our Tang Dynasty."

"You don't need to do this matter, I have a more suitable candidate."

After finishing speaking, Li Xiu looked at Wang Xiu, "Wang Xiu, you allocate some staff to set up the Agricultural Bank and the Commercial Bank under the Datang Bank to be responsible for lending to our Datang farmers and businessmen."

"The minister obeys the order."

Wang Xiu cupped his fists.

When Datang Bank was established.

His Majesty sent a large number of people from the household department to enter Datang Bank.

Later, from all over the world, he specially recruited people who are proficient in arithmetic.

Today's Datang Bank has no shortage of manpower.

It is completely possible to complete His Majesty's explanation.

Wang Anshi's eyes lit up when he heard this.

As the president of Datang Bank, Wang Xiu is familiar with the currency and financial affairs of Datang, so it is most appropriate for Datang Bank to preside over this matter!

Moreover, it will not give other officials in the DPRK and China any chance to make profits.

It also prevents the possibility of officials maliciously apportioning money to the people in order to complete their tasks.

As expected of His Majesty!

between waving.

It solved the shortcomings of the two new methods of the young crop method and the market change method for him!

When Wang Anshi looked at Li Xiu, his eyes were filled with admiration.

Chapter 170

"As for the whip method mentioned by Zhang Youxiang, I will add another one."

Li Xiu's eyes fell on Zhang Juzheng again, "My Tang Dynasty will abolish poll tax from today on!"

"In the prosperous age of my Tang Dynasty, people will be born, and they will never be blessed!"

Li Xiu's ultimate plan is for the Tang Dynasty to colonize the world.

This undoubtedly requires a large population.

Only the Tang Empire could have enough subjects to colonize and develop other countries.

In a real sense, other places will be transformed into places where the Tang Dynasty is inherited.

Breeding people, never adding gifts?

All the courtiers suddenly raised their heads and looked at Li Xiu in disbelief.

Head tax, not to mention the Tang Dynasty, has existed in all dynasties since ancient times.

It is a major income of the imperial court.

There is no poll tax.

With tens of millions of subjects in the Tang Dynasty, the revenue of the imperial court is bound to drop sharply.

What amazing courage is needed to abolish the poll tax?

No emperor would dare to do this!

The Minister of the Household Department hurried out and advised, "Your Majesty, once the poll tax is abolished, the revenue of the imperial court will be greatly reduced, and the national treasury may be in danger of being empty."

Li Xiu knew the impatience of the Minister of the Household Department, so she waved her hand immediately and said, "Without the poll tax, we still have land tax and commercial tax in Tang Dynasty. It won't be long before these two taxes will skyrocket."

With the implementation of Wang Anshi's new law.

The establishment of agricultural banks and commercial banks.

The agriculture and commerce of Datang will usher in prosperity and development.

Especially business!

Li Xiu is full of confidence.

Datang's taxes are bound to skyrocket.

"In addition, open all ports in Datang, encourage merchants to conduct ocean trade, set up customs at major ports, and collect tariffs!"

Li Xiu said.

Open all Datang ports and impose tariffs?

Hubu Shangshu was stunned.

Port trade is indeed an important item of Datang's foreign trade.

But all open ports.

No dynasty has ever dared to do this.

In the past, Li Xiu's policy was simply unimaginable.

After all, the past feudal dynasties adopted a policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business.

But now, Li Xiu not only wants to establish a commercial bank, but also actively lends money to businessmen.

It is also necessary to encourage businessmen to go out of the mainland and the mainland to conduct ocean trade!

This has already quietly changed the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce, and the emphasis on merchants has far surpassed any dynasty, reaching an unprecedented level!

however.

Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng, however, had set off huge waves in their hearts.

From the series of measures of His Majesty.

They can see that His Majesty is absolutely extraordinary today!

Compared with the previous generation of sages.

Your Majesty today has a very different and advanced thinking.

They are very excited at the moment.
