Chapter 293: Prodigal son, empire prodigal son!
This was the first time he heard someone say that he, Emperor Li Shimin, of the Tang Dynasty, had short-sighted eyes?
The civil and military ministers in the court did not dare to say much. They stood in the court like this and listened to the dialogue between the Eighth Prince and Li Shimin.
Because they dare not interrupt and have no right to interrupt.
Li Chengfeng swears: "Father, only by solving the problem of people's livelihood and people's conditions can our Tang Dynasty treasury be able to harvest more next year! The food released now is to protect the people of the Tang Dynasty from starving to death and to preserve the Tang Dynasty.
The labor force is still abundant, so when we handle national affairs, we must be willing to invest and be willing to invest assets in order to gain greater gains!”
"Shoulder wait a little..."
Li Shimin waved his hand and signaled Li Chengfeng to talk later.
The civil and military ministers in the court were also confused because they couldn't understand what Li Chengfeng was saying.
Li Shimin asked curiously: "Feng'er, dare you ask, what is investment?"
Li Chengfeng said: "Investing is to use the money we have to invest in things with more objective future profits! For example: I took 10,000 gold to invest in cotton this year! I made a lot of cotton next year, and I, Li Chengfeng, made 50,000 yuan.
Gold, in addition to 10,000 yuan in capital, I also made an extra 40,000 yuan, which is called investment here!"
"Small investments like ours are not worth much money. If the father wants the Tang Dynasty to be more prosperous in the coming year, then we have to make a big investment!" Li Chengfeng raised his little index finger and said seriously: "We are making big investments, investing
It is our entire Tang Dynasty! This year's drought is considered a bad situation, investment failed, stock prices plummeted, but why can't we kill chickens to get eggs, how can we maintain our labor force! If labor is short, then tomorrow will be very
It's hard to get the money back!"
"By the same reason, if we invested a lot of money and materials this year and retained the labor force of the Tang Dynasty, then the weather will be good for the coming year, and everyone in the Tang Dynasty will live and work in peace and prosperity, and the labor force is abundant. Are we afraid that the Tang Dynasty will not prosper?
”
"So, my father, be bolder! I'm so happy that the people starved to death and lost their labor. If you want to do it, just invest hard for us! Open the treasury, place the granary, retain the people and labor of the Tang Dynasty, and also keep the people and labor of the Tang Dynasty.
Can you get the love of the people? Right? The weather is good next year, so you can directly make all the losses you lost this year! Then, how can you continue to increase the labor force of the Tang Dynasty, and when the labor force is transformed into combat power, we will turn the frontier
The Tubo Turks and Goguryeo are defeated!"
"By the way, the small island countries cannot let go, they must also defeat them! Then what are we doing investment, expanding the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and then building navigation technology, and fighting all the way to the West to the world and dominate the world, hahahahaha
……Hahaha!"
Li Chengfeng laughed loudly on the stage when he heard it.
On the other hand, Li Shimin was confused. The ministers in the audience also stared at each other, looking at me, I see you.
Because they couldn't understand what Li Chengfeng said at all.
But he also felt that what Li Chengfeng said was reasonable. For a moment, no one stood up to refute it!
"Father, what do you think?" Li Chengfeng asked with a smile.
Li Shimin didn't understand what investment was, and he also felt that Li Chengfeng thought things were too beautiful.
So Li Shimin looked at the ministers in the audience and said, "You guys think, what's the Eighth Prince's opinion?"
"Uh, this, this..."
"Prime Minister Wei Zheng, what do you say about the Eighth Prince?"
Li Shimin threw the problem to Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng nodded, took a step, and said, "Your Majesty, although the old minister does not understand what the so-called investment of the Eighth Prince means! But the old minister thinks that the Eighth Prince's method is feasible!"
"It's feasible? Then Duke Lai Duke Du Ruhui, you can tell me too!"
Li Shimin looked at Du Ruhui.
As the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Du Ruhui became the chief of the Tang Dynasty and became Fang Xuanling. Du Duan was famous for his generation.
But when faced with Li Chengfeng's topic, Du Ruhui was still confused.
Du Ruhui took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Report to the emperor! The old minister thinks the eighth prince's idea is very good! But there is also a contradiction in the problem!"
"Oh? Please speak with Duke Lai!" Li Shimin's eyes lit up.
"Okay!" Du Ruhui nodded, "Just now, the old minister also understood what the so-called investment of the Eighth Prince means! That is, to consume the treasury funds to preserve the labor force of the people of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Well, Lai Guo Gong's words are reasonable!" Li Shimin agreed with one sentence.
"However, this has advantages, disadvantages, advantages and disadvantages!" Du Ruhui said.
"Oh? Then please Duke Lai, let me tell you!" Li Shimin looked at Du Ruhui with interest.
After all, Du Ruhui's IQ and understanding ability are not a joke.
Before Li Chengfeng came, Du Ruhui was always known as the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty. Many difficult and complicated problems were provided by Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, who gave Li Shimin advice.
But after Li Chengfeng came, Du Ruhui felt that his brain was not enough in front of Li Chengfeng.
Because Li Chengfeng was always able to come up with some advanced ideas, Du Ruhui couldn't understand what Li Chengfeng wanted to do.
For example: In the last literary competition between Li Chengfeng and Du Ruhui, Li Chengfeng invented electricity and directly radiated Du Ruhui to the ground.
Even if Du Ruhui is smart, he can't know how electricity comes from?
How can such an alien thing that cannot be obtained by human being?
This has always become an unsolved mystery in Du Ruhui's mind. He actually wanted to ask the Eighth Prince, but because he was too busy coming in and had no time, he was delayed.
...
Li Shimin asked Du Ruhui to propose the advantages and disadvantages of Li Chengfeng's so-called "investment".
Du Ruhui thought for a while before blurting out.
Du Ruhui said: "Emperor! The so-called "investment" of the Eighth Prince is as the Eighth Prince said. As long as the emperor uses the resources of the treasury and retains the labor force of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will be in good weather and the national capital will rise sharply in the coming year.
One piece! This is the advantage!"
"But the disadvantages are also very serious! First, what if the Tang Dynasty still suffers from drought or floods next year? Then, if the emperor wants to retain the Tang Dynasty's labor force again, he must release the treasury surplus grains from the national treasury again! Until the sky is beautiful!
”
"So, if you are not sure enough, this so-called "investment" is very risky! Once the investment fails, it means that the Tang Dynasty's treasury will suffer serious losses, but if the investment is successful, then the next year's big
Tang will definitely be more prosperous! Of course, all this depends on the emperor's choice!"
Du Ruhui is indeed smart.
Do you actually know that investment is risky?
