Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

When Li Ke said these prices, everyone took a deep breath.

This price is too low, especially since His Highness wants to increase the price of raw materials, which means to ensure that the majority of the people will have profits.

Under such circumstances, His Highness must not allow them to raise prices arbitrarily and earn higher profits.

"So, everyone, people's livelihood products like this will need to be priced basicly by the Ministry of Commerce in the future."

"Of course, Datang will not compete with the people for profit. You are also people. How to set prices is your freedom." Li Ke said lightly. Li Ke did not mention the matter of the price bureau. In fact, if Datang establishes a price bureau If so, it's not difficult.

Anyway, the six ministries have been reformed to what they are now, and it is not difficult to add a price bureau or simply add a development and reform department.

But the food needs to be eaten bite by bite. Anyway, there are not many commodities in Datang now. For the time being, the Ministry of Commerce will set a basic price, and the rest will be left to the market.

As for price control, Datang's state-owned commercial bank will be in charge of the control for the time being.

For example, Tang Chuliang is responsible for stabilizing grain prices and other aspects. If the grain harvest falls too sharply, it will buy a large amount of grain from all over the country.

In the next few years or even decades, Datang will not have too many natural disasters, and these times are the best time for Datang to store grain.

As long as the whole country of Datang has enough grain to feed the people of the whole country for one year, or even two years, then the price of grain will not collapse.

The most important thing is that in the future, with the continuous expansion of Datang's land area, various terrains and climates will become more abundant, then Datang's ability to fight risks will be stronger!

For example, if there is a drought in the north, it is impossible for the southeastern Huazhou regions such as Linyi and Zhenwa in the future to suffer from drought. The grain in these places is naturally guaranteed to have a good harvest.

Another example is that locust plagues are encountered in some places, and locust plagues are prone to occur in China, but there may be no locust plagues in the Central Plains of Datang, so the risk of fighting against the entire grain will naturally be greatly enhanced.

It's not just food, it's the same in pastoral areas. As the saying goes, if a family has a lot of money, those with hair don't count.Plagues such as cattle and sheep or snow disasters can easily lead to the death of large numbers of cattle and sheep. As long as Datang has enough pastoral areas, the risk of losses caused by these disasters is not great.

Li Ke's words made the people below ponder, the price is up to them to decide?In other words, His Highness only protected the interests of the common people responsible for the production of basic materials, which is in line with His Highness's long-standing reform arrangements for Datang.

For this, they have no objection.

Or to be precise, even if they have opinions, they can only have no opinions, and their opinions are not important now.

If they want to survive in Datang, they can only follow the path of His Highness now, because it is impossible for them, the aristocratic families, to be completely united.

All the aristocratic families in Lingnan Road have already stood on the same line with His Highness King Qin, and all the aristocratic families in Datang know about Lizhigang's investment.

And they all know the topography near Lizhi Port, and they don't need to think about what the future will look like in that place. As long as they invest, they will not lose money, even a foundation that has been established for hundreds of years. Who can refuse such an industry.

As long as you dare to object, then King Qin will have a way to find an excuse to take back the entire Lizhi Harbor directly.

In addition to Lizhi Port, others such as Yuzhang Port and Baling Peninsula are said to have begun to attract investment from across the country.

There will inevitably be a large number of families investing in these ports. As long as the families that invest in these assets cannot oppose His Highness King Qin.

And just like His Highness said, the textile industry is very important in the entire Tang Dynasty, and every household has something to do with it. The earliest reason is that silk is money in the Tang Dynasty, so every household has something to do. of.

However, His Royal Highness King Qin has reformed Datang’s currency system in the past two years, and even made a new legal reform at this year’s Zhongshu Confidential Conference, that is, Datang has its own legal currency, and any other currency circulation is prohibited.

Under the new currency system, although the silk and other industries of various companies are also profitable, the profits are not large, because Datang's demand for silk is actually not that high.

Of course, if His Highness hadn't traded with other countries, so much silk in the Tang Dynasty could not be consumed.

But now, the cost of silk has been reduced to such an extent, although the price is determined by themselves, there must be something wrong with it.

No one is a fool, His Highness said, brand new spinning machines, looms, etc. can be sold, that is to say, they can buy machines, the problem is that the cost of your production is the same as that of His Highness, but your How much can the price increase?

It is impossible to sell at the previous price.Because don’t forget, His Highness also owns a weaving factory. If His Highness sells a piece for 100 Wen, tell me if they sell it for 200 Wen, will anyone buy it?

Obviously not, so this price seems to be set freely by the market, but in fact, as long as there are also factories in the hands of His Highness, their prices cannot be too high.

At most, His Royal Highness has a weaving factory in Chang'an, selling 100 Wen a piece, and they have a factory in Yizhou, which can sell 120 Wen locally, which is the profit of multiple shipping costs.

It is no longer possible to obtain the super high profits of the past.

Even whether the price can be sold for 120 yuan a piece of cloth is still unknown.

"These cloths will have ex-factory prices at that time. If you want to buy them, you can go directly to the relevant industries to buy them. If you want to set up your own weaving factory, the spinning factory can also directly contact the machinery manufacturing factory to purchase related machines."

"If you have any questions, after the fashion show is over, you can consult with relevant personnel." Li Ke said with a smile.

After the speech, Li Ke left temporarily. It is estimated that these people will have many problems in the future, such as the sale of looms and spinning machines. At that time, a considerable part of these powerful families will definitely invest a lot of money. .

The profit of the first batch of machines was very high, or very high. The reason why the price was so high was naturally to suck up the cash in the hands of these aristocratic families.

Li Ke had to let them understand that it is useless to bury money.

In the past, these aristocratic families liked to hide money. In fact, it was often because they didn't have much to spend it on. If it was just for personal enjoyment, they didn't have so much to enjoy, and they couldn't spend it all on investment and other aspects.

But it's different now, Li Ke has plenty of ways to make them spend money.

As long as the large amount of cash in their hands is spent and turned into fixed assets, when they need to start taking loans no matter whether they continue to invest or spend in the future, they will be in the game.

Because that means that their family asset exchanges and so on are already in the records of the court.
