Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were silent.
After a long time…
Du Ruhui looked in Xiao Yu's direction and spoke slowly.
"Lord Xiao, the double-entry bookkeeping method, abacus, abacus, and so on that you want to promote are not only effective in the Ministry of Revenue, but also in other departments.”
Li Shi Min and Zhangsun Wu Ji raised their heads, their shocked expressions seemed to be saying:
F * ck, pig teammate, shut up!
Was it because he was not busy enough with the snow disaster, or because the year-end workload was not big enough?
At the very least, they had to wait until after spring plowing!!!
Now that they were praising the reform, where would the people in charge of implementing it come from?
The allusion to the idea of stopping a man from having sex was not nonsense.
Fang Xuanling was good at scheming while Du Ruhui was good at decision-making. The two of them had a tacit understanding when they worked together.
As soon as Du Ruhui finished speaking, Fang Xuanling glanced at Li Shimin and expressed his agreement.
"The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of all the money in the world. Lord Xiao Yu is the Minister of Revenue, and his opinion is worthy of the court's attention.”
"Your Majesty, think about it. If the Ministry of Revenue is the most efficient, it will actually be of great benefit to the other departments.”
"Moreover, it doesn't have to be implemented in the entire Great Tang. It's not impossible to implement it in the Ministry of Revenue.”
Li Shi Min started to think seriously, but his sharp eyes saw Li Yuan Fang yawn and ask a question.
"Ninth brother doesn't seem to care about the result?”
Li Yuanfang smiled innocently and said frankly.
"Because I am confident that regardless of the outcome of today's debate, these things will be widely used sooner or later.”
"So confident? Aren't you afraid that I'll ban it?"
Li Shi Min raised his eyebrows and said with a playful tone.
Li Yuanfang shrugged his shoulders and paused for a moment before speaking with sparkling eyes.
"Your Majesty has already entered a misunderstanding by saying this.”
"Just like hoes, sickles, and other farming tools, these are just auxiliary tools to advance the development of mathematics.”
"The appearance of every auxiliary tool means one thing: saving time and freeing labor.”
"Realistically speaking, after the reexamination of the bookkeeping method, some people will no longer be able to use the old bookkeeping method to profit.”
"Or is it that…you can indulge some people in thinking about it?”
Li Shiming was a talented emperor. His goal was to become a prosperous emperor, and he was not afraid of any difficulties on this path.
Even though a single move could affect the entire Imperial Court, once the officials developed a new habit…
Work that usually took three days could be completed in one day.
With the time saved, wouldn't I be able to do more things that benefit the people and push my Great Tang to a prosperous era?
"Alright, the new algorithm, bookkeeping method, etc. will be implemented by Minister Xiao in the Ministry of Revenue. If there is any need, inform me directly!”
Li Shi Min, who had made up his mind, spoke in a domineering manner.
Xiao Yu laughed when he heard this. He had been waiting for Li Shimin to say this.
"Your Majesty, please send your colleagues from the Ministry of Works to deliver a hundred abacuses to the Ministry of Revenue.”
Hearing this, Li Shi Min's face stiffened, as if he was constipated.
From sugar to fire beds to igloos, there was nothing that did not cost money.
"Tomorrow, Zhen will send people from the Ministry of Works to visit Prince Zhou's residence.”Li Shimin held his forehead in frustration.
"The old rules are clear. I'm poor!”Li Yuanfang skillfully pretended to be poor.
"You promised to help the villagers build houses when you were poor?”Li Shi Min laughed.
"Yes, it's precisely because I set aside money to build a house that I'm poor.”Li Yuanfang lowered his head shyly.
"Good for you." Li Shi Min laughed.
Li Yuanfang pretended to be dumb and didn't understand.
Seeing this scene, everyone felt that Li Yuanfang deserved a beating.
……
The next day, in the Prince Zhou Residence.
Li Yuanfang was lying on a rocking chair. The rocking chair was swaying slowly. Coupled with the heat coming from the fireplace, he was so comfortable that he felt drowsy.
"Yo, looks like you know how to enjoy life.”A voice filled with jealousy rang out.
"People live to enjoy, to enjoy food, to enjoy work, to enjoy the scenery, and so on. How boring would life be without these?”
"Hmph, glib words!"
A cold snort rang out. Li Yuanfang frowned. Who was so tactless?
When he opened his eyes, he saw Li Shimin again and again, followed by five or six people, one of whom was his teacher, Xiao Yu.
Li Yuanfang, who was a little slower, recognized who the two people were. One was Li Shimin, and the other was Wei Zheng.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Li Yuanfang hurriedly stood up and bowed.
"The chairs placed in the front hall and the ones in your study are slightly different from the chairs you gave to the Retired Emperor, but their functions are similar?”Li Shi Min asked curiously.
"What else? The chair is for sitting." Li Yuanfang laughed.
Li Shimin had been eyeing the furniture for a long time, but he was a little embarrassed to ask for it, so he decided to try it out himself.
"Not bad, the effect of sitting up is very comfortable. However, no matter how much credit you have for creating such a pile of things, it's still because you're addicted to strange techniques and not doing your job properly!”
"I agree." Wei Zheng nodded decisively.
Li Yuanfang sneered and calmly shook his head.
"Does studying exotic techniques really mean that you're not doing your job? May I ask where Lord Wei is placing the Ministry of Works?”
"I thought that there would be capable people in all three hundred and sixty trades. As long as they did something beneficial to the country, it would be equivalent to sharing the worries of the monarch.”
"Taking a step back, as long as the commoners do their part, they will also share the burden of the ruler. After all, the Great Tang is not made up of only scholars!”
Li Xiaogong clapped the table and cheered.
"Hahaha, well said. The same rice can feed a hundred different people. If all the people in the world are copied from the same mold, then this world will be meaningless.”
"Cough cough, Yuan Fang!"
Xiao Yu coughed lightly and glanced at the black-faced Wei Zheng. He then called out to Li Yuanfang with a warning tone.
Li Shimin also liked to see Wei Zheng suffer, but he was here for business.
"Yuan Square Blueprint."
"Only an abacus?"
"Cough cough, what if I want them all?"
"The others can just pay normally. If it were His Majesty, this little brother would want a porcelain workshop.”
"Alright, I happen to have a loss-making porcelain workshop on hand. I'll also give you the carpenter workshop next to it. Those two places are right next to the brick workshop.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Yuanfang happily thanked him. It would be good if these industries were connected. When the time came, he would build new houses for the tenants and bring in some materials.
Li Shi Min waved his hand and said happily.
"Don't thank me too early. I've already agreed to Minister Xiao's request.”
"Starting tomorrow, you will have to stay in the Ministry of Revenue for a period of time before the officials learn how to quickly calculate the accounts.”
Li Yuanfang's face fell. He felt that it was too difficult!
