Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Tian Meng's words made Li Ke smile gratifiedly, it's okay, it's not in vain to cultivate, at least he understands these principles.

"Two days later, a Datang Weekly will be printed to explain the situation to the people. In addition, Luoyang's Datang Weekly will be printed for three consecutive days. First, it will publicize what happened in Chang'an, and then follow the contents of the Chang'an Datang Weekly."

"Besides, the donations made by many businessmen this time will be vigorously publicized in the Datang Weekly next time! If someone donates money, they must be named!" Li Ke said quickly. "Also, the finances of our family cannot be known to outsiders. From today onwards, I, Li Ke, will be a poor man, you know?!"

"Yes..." Tian Meng was a little speechless, he didn't know how to describe his highness, so he just said some ugly words to himself.

"Okay, you go to work first, and the construction will start in seven days, but there is one thing, don't disturb the people! Subsidize those small businesses!" Li Ke thought for a while, and thought of another place to spend money!To be honest, Li Ke is really not afraid to spend money on the common people now!

Because there is a high probability that the money will flow back to him in the end. In the process of going back and forth, the people become richer, the country becomes richer, and Li Ke also becomes richer. Hey, triple wins are so simple and unpretentious.

After Tian Meng left, Li Ke thought about it, and simply called Yang Anning and the tailor who made the clothes.

"Your Highness." Yang Anning and the others bowed and saluted.

"Now I have a task for you." Li Ke said with a serious expression.

"Please speak, Your Highness." Everyone hurriedly said.

"You design a suit of clothes for me. His Highness will often wear this suit in the future. Except for court clothes, His Highness will wear this dress on other occasions. Remember! It must be exactly the same, there must be no difference, at least not to make people If you can see the difference, make [-] sets first, including the boots and the underwear inside." Li Ke said seriously.

"Eh?" Everyone was a little confused, they could understand making clothes, but what does it mean to make twenty sets of the same thing?

"Because my Highness is very poor from today, and has no clothes to wear. The task of renovating Chang'an City is about to begin." Li Ke said lightly.

Yang Anning almost choked on his own saliva... What kind of showmanship is this.Poor... Can a prince be so poor that he has no clothes to wear?The problem is... Li Ke makes [-] sets that are exactly the same, if he continues like this for a year... I guess some people will believe it.

"Your Highness, we understand. Your Highness wants to set an example and warn everyone under his command to be frugal and put the people at the center. Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will live up to His Highness's trust, but we will only wear the same clothes for a long time. Got it." The female tailors "understood" in an instant, and they said respectfully.

"It's okay, what kind of grievance is this? It doesn't matter what you wear." Li Ke waved his hand generously.

The few female workers stopped talking. They knew that His Highness always liked to put the pressure on himself and never let them share it, but he gave them the best treatment for these servants. No matter which government they went to, they were not as good as them. treatment.

Over the years, His Royal Highness the King of Shu has never had a slave die by his side. Go to other houses to inquire, are there few slaves who died violently?And not only that, His Royal Highness the King of Shu did many things that seemed incomprehensible to ordinary people, he would not hide them from them, but told them all.

Which master can do the same?His Royal Highness the King of Shu treated each of their servants with sincerity, but they had nothing to offer in return except for a life. As for the posture of the willow, they would not insult His Royal Highness's personality at all.

Yang Anning sighed, these female workers really like to make up some things, but I don't blame them, after all, they don't have much knowledge.How could someone like His Highness do such a simple thing? Someone above the court must be eyeing His Highness again, and I'm afraid they will use His Highness's extravagant style as a monster.

His Highness always thinks of the common people, and he has thousands of people in the entire Tang Dynasty in his heart, so he has no time to argue with those bullshit censors, so he made a bad plan to avoid these censors' remarks.

It's a pity that they can't see it, but it's very good, otherwise when will His Highness take a fancy to her and make friends with her.

"Basically, this is the matter. Our Shu Palace will be very busy recently. Some of your performances here will go on as usual. If you have nothing to do, study some songs and the like. Also, don't you all perform by yourself, let others The sisters also share more, we are not here to make jokes, we are just performing, it doesn't matter whether it looks good or not." Li Ke said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Highness." Yang Anning bowed immediately.

When Li Ke was explaining, in another mall, all the merchants who had donated just now gathered together again.

"Everyone, we are fortunate to be together today, and thanks to His Royal Highness Gao Yi, we have this opportunity, so I was wondering just now, can we set up a membership system like His Highness Shu's membership system?" Yes? Almost all of you here are businessmen, why don't we call it the Chamber of Commerce?" Bai Ling, who had just made a suggestion, said loudly to everyone.

"May I ask Mr. Bai Lang, what is the meaning of this chamber of commerce?" a person asked.

"It's actually very simple. Our Chamber of Commerce doesn't need to pay membership fees, but because we have a common experience, we might as well unite. Our individual family may be weak, but now we have dozens of them together, no more than some Are big families weak?" Bai Ling said.

"I'm going to explain my thoughts to the truth. We have earned a lot of money, but the one who is willing to give us a chance and reputation is probably His Royal Highness the King of Shu. His Royal Highness the King of Shu is renovating Chang'an City today, and he may renovate it in the future. Luoyang City, let’s not talk about this, but we gathered together, we can’t help His Highness the King of Shu with some official connections, but some money should be no problem.” Bai Ling said seriously, “Just now you also heard about the data of the Royal Academy of Tang Dynasty. things."

"I think you all want your children to have the right to take the imperial examination, right?"

Bailing's words were very straightforward. To a certain extent, they were the first batch of people who had benefits with Li Ke. Although all of them were merchants and some from poor families, in fact, many of them did not lack money.Like Bailing, his business can't be compared with those big aristocratic families, but he still has a profit of 10,000+ per year.

And they all have a lot of accumulation, so the money donated to Li Ke is nothing.

Bai Ling's words made everyone ponder. Indeed, they never had this opportunity before, not even spending money!And Li Ke gave them this opportunity, and didn't even let them spend more money!

"I agree with Mr. Bai Lang. Although I am a barbarian, I have been in Tang Dynasty for many years. Let me say a few words from the perspective of a bystander. Don't be disgusted." stand up.

"Mr. Ashi Lu, please tell me." Almost everyone is mainly businessmen, regardless of how the Hu people feel in their hearts, but they are naturally quite polite on the surface, and they understand business very well.

"Actually, many of your families, I think, are related to the big aristocratic families. After all, you can't avoid them when doing business in the Tang Dynasty. To use an inappropriate analogy, we are like people who go to the temple to offer incense. Believers, and they are the Bodhisattvas sitting there, they can receive a lot of offerings almost without doing it themselves, while we need to work hard and get nothing in the end."

"To be honest, instead of doing this, I might as well follow His Highness the King of Shu. First of all, His Highness the King of Shu is a prince, and his status is not bad, and His Highness the King of Shu has also won a big victory against the big clans. Now those five surnames and seven hopeless Still applying for a gold membership for His Royal Highness the King of Shu? Isn’t this an admission of defeat in disguise?”

"I thought they didn't plan to spend that money when they handed it in!"

"Since this is the case, why do we still have to pay tribute to them? How about paying tribute directly to His Highness the King of Shu? Besides, the only members of His Highness the King of Shu are us now, but we are not the only merchants in the entire Tang Dynasty. Many merchants are not as powerful as us. Poor, but they are only located in different parts of the Tang Dynasty." Ashil said loudly.

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu is well-known in Chang'an City, and he even treats his servants fairly and reasonably. Think about us, the first batch of people who followed him, as well?"

Ash Lu's words made all the businessmen present stunned for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, these words... so frankly reasonable!
