I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

"Everyone, since I and the King of Qin have pulled everyone together to earn money for this incident in Koryo, and everyone has invested real money in it, it is naturally impossible for me to renege on my debts, and I will not be so dirty!"

"However, there is a problem here, that is, if so many slaves enter the pass and are divided among different families. Then, whether it is me or you, can you still sleep well?"

"Everyone wants to earn money. I hope that everyone's family business will prosper, but there are too many people like this, it's a bit scary!"

Chapter 487 The Final Solution

Li Shimin's words were like a silencer bomb, instantly stunned everyone in the palace, and everyone looked at Li Shimin speechlessly.

It's not that what Li Shimin said was wrong, but that what he said was too straightforward.

Shouldn't the emperor's speech be surrounded by clouds and mountains and mists, so that the courtiers can experience, consider, and figure out what they want by themselves?

Why did it suddenly go straight to the point?

However, no one intends to show up at this moment, let alone speak.

Because the question Li Shimin just asked is too real, or too direct, almost pointing at everyone's nose, I am worried that if you have too many people under your command, you will rebel.

But how to answer this question?

This is obviously not something that can be fooled by whole words like expressing loyalty.

After all, they all knew that if they had tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of slaves under their hands, they would inevitably have to hire a large number of private soldiers to take care of them.

Not to mention too much, if there is at least one guard for twenty people, then at least several thousand sergeants will be needed.

Well, thousands of private troops cooperate with tens of thousands of slaves, even if they keep saying that they will not rebel, who will believe it.

If they themselves were emperors, they would be afraid. It can even be said that if the neighbor next door has such power, they themselves would be afraid.

After all, even if there is no rebellion, if there is any conflict between the two families, they will not be able to fight.

But that being said, in fact, such a large share of benefits is still a benefit that should be shared in the hands of the people, who is willing to give up?

Therefore, at this moment, even the most eloquent civil servants are all looking at the small table in front of them honestly, as if there are some wonderful articles on it, and they are all paying attention.

Li Shimin sighed, it seems that it is not enough to count on these people, he still has to do it himself.

"Everyone, I actually already have an idea on this matter, and now I will talk about it with everyone. At the same time, I will also listen to everyone's ideas!"

When everyone heard what Li Shimin said, they immediately straightened their backs, stopped studying ants, let alone tables, and looked at Li Shimin more sensible than elementary school students.

They are not afraid that the method is not good, nor are they afraid that the method is too strict. After all, as long as there is no prohibition and there is a way to come out, then everything can be discussed.

What they were most afraid of was that Li Shimin would suddenly cut everything across the board and tell them that this matter had nothing to do with them, and that would be a disaster.

Li Shimin naturally knew what these people were thinking, but he didn't care. Everyone is mortal, so who doesn't want their family to live a better life.

"My current thinking is this. At present, there are many projects in the pass that need to be started. A large amount of manpower needs to be placed here. In the past, people were recruited, but now that there are so many slaves, naturally there is no need for people to come."

"At the same time, only my army can take care of so many slaves without worrying about them making trouble!"

"So, I am also a shareholder of the slaves obtained in the Battle of Goryeo. Then all of my members will be replaced by slaves, and these slaves will enter the pass!"

"As for the rest of the shareholders, those who need slaves can only use them outside the customs, Liaodong and Korea are fine, but they can't enter the customs!"

Everyone nodded thoughtfully. If it came this way, it would not be impossible. Li Shimin would have taken his share first.

As an emperor, it is good to be able to abide by the rules for this sake, and a little preferential treatment is extremely normal, who made him an emperor.

But what everyone is most concerned about now is that this slave cannot enter the customs, so will the family's property have to be operated outside the customs in the future?

But the key point is that many families have their roots in the pass, and not everyone has roots in the Northland like Fan Yang and the Lu family.

Li Shimin looked at everyone like that, and couldn't help but feel proud. It seems that my method is still effective. At least there is no objection so far, so the basic plan is there, and the rest is the details.

"I know that there are many shareholders who are unwilling to operate outside the customs. After all, although the bitter cold land is rich, it is not inside the customs. Therefore, for those who do not operate outside the customs, they will naturally get money!"

"This is my virtuous brother. His Royal Highness King Qin has already taken down the first and second batch of slaves. What I mean is that I pay for them and bring them directly back to the customs for jurisdiction, so don't think about the others."

"Of course the money, soldiers and horses are also paid by me! After everything is settled, if my income is not enough to take down so many slaves, then I will make up the money according to my share!"

"Are you all satisfied with this approach?"

Although what Li Shimin said was polite, who would dare to haggle over every detail with the emperor? For Li Shimin's ability to do this, he is already very well behaved.

Otherwise, I really cheated you, so what can you do?

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Li Shimin was secretly relieved, mother, the most terrible thing has finally been dealt with.

However, now that the most important event has been discussed, let's talk about something that everyone is happy about.

"By the way, I forgot to tell everyone that after the King of Qin captured Anshi City, he directly packed and shipped back all the property obtained from several cities!"

"There is a share for the King of Qin, a share for all the officers and soldiers, and naturally everyone's share. After the things arrive in the past two days, everyone come to count and collect your own income!"

Whoa whoa whoa-

In the whole palace, the scene suddenly became chaotic. If the previous news made them a little bit in a dilemma, then the news they heard now is really good news.

It's money!

Is there anything better than investing in a high-risk business and not thinking about the return, and then suddenly being told that you have made money and can share the money?

You know, back then there were quite a few people who joined in for the sake of getting in touch with His Majesty and the King of Qin.

What was given back then was all real money!

Now, how long has it been, and you can actually see the money back, and judging by His Majesty's intentions, it seems that the harvest is not small, so what are you talking about, let's get angry!

Many small families who didn't plan to make money themselves, or didn't have high expectations for the Goryeo War, and only thought about their relationship, were completely happy at this time.

Hahaha, this is simply a windfall, not only standing on the same boat with His Majesty, the King of Qin, and the top nobles of the Tang Dynasty, but now also has a huge income, even beyond imagination.

It seems that this time, he made a big bet on His Royal Highness King Qin. This is not to make the other party owe favors, but that the other party is really making a fortune. However, it's so sweet!

Chapter 488

In the next few days, in the eyes of the Tang people who didn't know what happened, it seemed that Chang'an City had become a little different.

Why do those gang of gentry kids who seem to be generous on weekdays actually have a lot of talk, but in fact, the gentry kids who can't afford a few bucks seem to have become rich all of them.

Moreover, with the passage of time, everyone gradually discovered that not only these people, but also the nobles of the entire Tang Dynasty, as long as they have a good relationship with His Majesty, their families seem to be rich.

You must know that even these big families have always been very strict in the discipline of their children. Although they are never short of expenses, they don't have much money in their hands.

Therefore, everyone is a bit confused, where did this group of people get rich or what?

BMW?buy it!

Antique vase?buy it!

Persian dancers?buy it!

Zhang's fine wine?buy it!

palace?Buy... uh, this one can't afford it!

Many merchants in Chang'an suddenly discovered that there seems to be not enough goods to sell in recent days, especially those high-end goods that are seen more than bought on weekdays, and now they are being swept away like goods. Bought the big bag.

Many merchants are really painful and happy at this time. On the one hand, many goods that were originally backlogged in stores and warehouses and thought to be sold for a long time were emptied at once. , There are still big customers who keep saying that they don't care about money, but they have no goods to sell at all for the time being.

It's such a painful feeling to see a lot of money that can't be earned.

But apart from being incompetent and furious, they could only frantically urge the steward at home to replenish the stock.

At the same time, he began to bite his nails and secretly wonder how this group of people got rich.

And it's not just one or two people getting rich, it's obviously a large number of people getting rich.

Could it be that a group of top nobles discovered a gold mine together?

This feeling of seeing a secret in front of my eyes but not being able to discover it is really scratching my head!

This feeling is not limited to his family. Now the entire business in Chang'an is exploding like a blowout. Not only these merchants selling luxury goods benefit, but more small merchants that provide daily consumption.

After all, those families who have made a fortune, after getting the money, the first thing they think of is to improve the conditions of their own family as a whole. For example, they are not willing to eat more lamb meat. The precious wood purchased should be bought first and kept.

It turns out that there is no money to renovate the vacant wing room, so there is no need to wait at this time, and hurry up to gather people to buy all the materials and start.

It can be said that Zhang Nuo's first batch of property and dividends brought in made the group of local beetle shareholders finally taste the feeling of being rich.

If it was normal, they would not spend such money, after all, this can be regarded as a batch of windfall.

However, this time is different, this is only the first batch of dividends shipped back, there will be several times in the future, and even the most valuable final settlement has not yet come.

Anyway, there is still a steady stream of supply in the follow-up. If you are in a hurry, who will not spend money on it?

It's so hard to die, the second generation of the most elite and motivated gang in Chang'an, either work hard in Lantian City, or follow Zhang Nuo to transport cannons all over the world to find cities!

Therefore, those who stay in Chang'an City are basically the bastards who are not loved by grandma and uncle, or children from small families.

I don't know how capable he is, but that dude has a really big temper.

Especially with the collusion of a few words from the brothel's top card, it's simply not worth the money.

As for the dandy, the most important thing is to save face, is your family rich?

My family is also a shareholder. Speaking of which, there are more members than your family. I am the eldest son and grandson of the family, and even the only son.

Well, maybe it's just a few jokes, not to mention Qian Zhuang being cowardly, these bastards who are already rich, have used all kinds of methods to compete with each other, to tear each other down, and to run on each other.

Anyway, everyone just made a small fortune with His Highness King Qin from Korea. If your family can afford the money, can't my family afford it?

So, the atmosphere of you coming and going is getting more and more high.

And this kind of thing of throwing money at people, of course the winner has face and face, but the loser feels uncomfortable, just because he accidentally didn't bring enough money.

What should I do?

It's simple, take the money at home, and throw it back when you turn around. The young master eats all good things on weekdays, but he doesn't suffer. The first time is enough for this embarrassing thing, and there must be no second time.

However, some dandies thought in their hearts, I'm afraid it's a bit thin to be alone, should I call some good brothers?

As the saying goes, blessings and hardships are shared, what's the point of being alone?

So, in less than ten days, the whole of Chang'an has completely become a place for these dudes to fight for wealth. If you spend 1000 taels to take over the oiran, I will spend 2000 taels to snatch it.

You want to spend 2000 taels to buy that house, but I will offer you 3000 taels. Who do you think the other party is selling it to?

I am richer than you, so I am richer than you, why?Dissatisfied?If you don't accept it, take money and beat me to death!

It is different from the group of generals who follow Zhang Nuo and are now fighting north and south in Koryo. If there is a conflict between them, it is enough to fight. If you have a hard fist, you are the boss.

It's also different from the elite scholars in Lantian City who are now [-] as a blessing and are so busy that they don't touch the ground. Either there will be no conflicts at all between these people, everyone has something to discuss, or there will be conflicts. , that is definitely the kind of tricks that are used together, and the opponent will not give up without killing the opponent.

But now the so-called dandy behavior of the gang of second generations who hang out in Chang'an City has spread to Lantian City, those really top second generations just curled their lips in disdain, and then honestly went to work.

Just kidding, now the entire Lantian City not only has a large population, but also supplies all kinds of ordnance and materials for the Goryeo conquest army. Children's stuff.

Now they have a deeper understanding of the new policies, and the more they understand, the more they know what kind of brilliance these new policies will radiate in various places in the Tang Dynasty in the future.

And as the first batch of rulers, what kind of advantages will they have at that time!

How can such an opportunity to lead the family to a higher level be compared to something like a child playing around?

Therefore, just because of this or that reason, the first batch of nouveau riche in Datang completely broke out in Chang'an City.

Chapter 489

Most of the first batch of nouveau riche in the Tang Dynasty came from the original Prince Qin's mansion. Although they failed to ascend to the court like Changsun Wuji and others, they were basically officials of the fifth rank or above. .

There is almost no family background, after all, there are only a few famous families in the entire Tang Dynasty.

Let’s talk about their talents, they are more than enough than the top, and they can be regarded as the backbone that really maintains the operation of this behemoth like Datang.

At the same time, they are also loyal to Li Shimin, the emperor. After all, they all rely on Li Shimin to rise slowly. If they lose Li Shimin's thigh, they will be beaten back to their original forms immediately.

But it was this kind of non-compliance that made them understand that if there were no particularly good opportunities in this life, they were afraid that they would never be able to pass the most important step of being a third-rank official.

Maybe when they retire, they can get a third-rank loose title to show their favor and support their lives, but don't think about other things.

After all, who can really ascend to the court to pay respects to the prime minister, which one is not a holy family member who is strong and has outstanding ability? Maybe they are serving as servants in the yamen or something. I am afraid that this is the limit. think.

Since there is no way to be promoted in the officialdom, as long as you don't make big mistakes, you probably won't get into any trouble, just wait for your seniority to go up.

But the inability to exert force in the officialdom does not mean that the family cannot exert force. Who would not want their own family to flourish.

As a result, Li Shimin's most die-hard supporters have become minority shareholders of the Koryo project.

So, they all got rich recently!
