Obviously, Li Chen'an could not convince Li Wenhou, and Li Wenhou could not do anything to Li Chen'an.

This is the difference between their respective ideologies.

From Li Chenan's perspective, he certainly knows the importance of boosting handicraft industry and revitalizing business.

But this is a society with farming culture as the main body. After all, it is not wrong to have Li Wenhou's persistence after being educated by feudal ideas.

So Li Chenan gave up convincing Li Wenhou, because even if he convinced Li Wenhou at this moment, he would face countless ministers like Li Wenhou coming forward to stop him.

This does not mean he gives up.

Instead, he needed to gather many important officials to solve this problem at one time.

It is not to force the push by force or power. He needs to present facts and reason to convince them and let them understand the profound significance of this move.

After all, the final execution was for those ministers.

If they resisted it, it would not be possible to implement it.

However, to cure the poverty of Ningguo, one must start from industry and commerce.

Li Chenan waved his hand, "Let's not talk about this anymore."

Li Wenhou refused to give in: "You are wrong, you are wrong!"

Li Chenan straddled his neck: "It's too early to say something wrong now!"

Li Wenhou: "The son is stubborn and cannot be taught!"

Li Chenan: "Old and decayed, you cannot be carved!"

Li Wen's thick-faced face and thick-necked family stood up: "I'm not going to do it anymore!"

Li Chenan also stood up with a fierce look on his face: "If you dare to give up your burden, I will dare to throw fireworks into your yard!"

Li Wenhou was stunned and widened his eyes, "Don't you, I'm not Ji Tai! Do you think I'm afraid of you!"

Eunuch Chang, who was standing beside him, saw that both of them were stubborn, but I was up to you, so I had to persuade him...

So, the old eunuch Chang walked over and smiled.

"Mr. Li, it's all for Ningguo!"

"Whether it is Lord Lee or the Regent, everyone's starting point is good."

"If you just let it go because of a disagreement in politics... this is not the style of the old Li family!"

"The zodiac family also took the initiative to say something more. Although the Regent is young and kind-hearted, he is serious about doing things!"

"If you really quit, the Regent may really dare to throw fireworks into your yard... If this is spread, it may become your reputation as a minister of counselor, but Lord Li should also think about how the people will treat the Regent!"

This is a lighter sentence and a heavy sentence.

What this means is that if Li Wenhou really quit doing this, wouldn’t the people think that the Regent was a arrogant tyrant?

This name is not good.

Li Wenhou glared at Li Chenan fiercely and sat down angrily.

Wang Zheng and Kim Jong, who were standing in the corner, walked over at this time just in time: "Regent, what's the matter with me?"

"sit!"

"Thank you Regent!"

Li Chenan also sat down and stopped talking to Li Wenhou. He pointed at Wang Zheng and Jin Zhong:

"There are a few things that the Imperial City Department will deal with."

"Please give orders to the Regent!"

"First, all the food in Shuangjiao Mountain will be transported back to Kyoto and handed over to Lord Li!"

"Secondly, the next main work of the Imperial City Department is to collect information nationwide!"

"I want the comments from officials everywhere, the situation of the people everywhere, especially in places where disasters and bandits occur, the information must be sent as soon as possible!"

"Third... I want information from all countries around our Ningguo!"

"Whether it is military, agriculture and commerce, or major changes in their court, etc."

"From now on, the Imperial City Department will only have the power to supervise and no the power to execute!"

"That is, the Imperial City Minister can no longer kill people as casually as before!"

"Any official with bad deeds can collect evidence of crime and hand it over to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation and execution."

"There should not be any more things that transcend the rules and override the law, otherwise... I will ask you, Wang Zheng, the King of the Bell!"

Wang Zheng and Kim Jong listened carefully, and he knew that the power of the Imperial City Department was restricted by the Regent at this moment.

He did not raise any objection because Changsun Jinghong once said one thing.

He said...

"This big-leaf banyan has grown crooked, maybe the butt of the Imperial City Department has been sitting crooked."

Now the Regent wants to straighten the butt of the Imperial City Department and separate the power. The Imperial City Department has the power to supervise and the Ministry of Justice has the power to enforce the law. This is a good thing.

"Subordinate to obey the order!"

"Go."

Wang Zheng and Jin Zhong bowed his fists and said withdrew.

Li Wenhou's anger seemed to have been much lessened because of Li Chen'an's decision, and he even had Li Chen'an's eyes.

Because he understood what benefits this decision would bring.

"There is nothing to do with the officials, so say goodbye!"

"etc!"

"Against that matter?"

"no!"

Li Chenan poured a cup of tea for Li Wenhou, "Today I invited the Duke of the Four Great Dukes' Mansions to come. Isn't our Ministry of Revenue not money?"

Li Wenhou was stunned, "Are you going to ask them to donate the money?"

“Not a donation.”

Li Chenan picked up the teacup and took a sip, "When I put them all back to their homes, I told them a word."

Li Wenhou leaned over and said, "What do you mean?"

"I tell them that since the emperor has passed away, the name of the Duke whom the late emperor rewarded them... will follow the late emperor!"

"Since everyone can afford me, Li Chen'an, I, Li Chen'an, will protect the lives of your whole family, and the condition is to make up for the taxes on the industries they have for 20 years!"

"In addition, from now on, all industries that originally belonged to Ningguo, whether they were pastures, mines, salt fields, canal transportation, weaving, etc., were collected as state-owned!"

"These industries are all included in the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of Revenue has established a commercial department to handle the production, operation, sales and other matters of these state-owned industries."

"This requires a group of business-minded officials. Of course, they can also hire the original leaders of those industries to give them official positions and let them serve Ningguo."

Li Wenhou was shocked.

Because that is a huge fortune!

Those wealth has always been occupied by the great sects of Ningguo. No emperor of all generations would ever be the wicked man to take back the wealth.

Because that was the reward from the founding emperor of Ningguo to the heroes of the Dragon!

The ancestral system cannot be violated!

But now, Li Chenan is going to openly violate this ancestral system...

This is of course excellent for Ningguo, but it is a huge blow to the four major governments!

Especially the Duke of Cheng and Duke of Qi, they once helped Li Chenan with great strength.

He took a deep breath and whispered: "It is not a good thing to burn bridges across the river!"

Li Chenan waved his hand: "Someone has to be this evil person."

"Will the emperor's eldest son return to his throne, wouldn't it be better if he was the emperor's eldest son?"

Li Chenan pondered for a moment: "It will take some time to find the eldest son of the emperor, but Ningguo has no time to wait now."

"Will they agree?"

"It's all old foxes, and you can tell which one is more important. Besides, although these industries are managed by the Ministry of Revenue, there are still many things that need to be used by them."

Li Chenan also leaned over and whispered: "Second uncle can do something with them through this matter!"

Li Wenhou was stunned for a moment: "What does it mean?"

“Associate!”

"You will not be able to find people who operate those industries for a while. I think you can give them 20% of the profits. The Ministry of Revenue will take ownership of those industries and sell them the management rights!"

"But it takes a limited time, such as five years!"
