Li Shi Min sat on a chair and drank his tea.
"This tea is really bad."
"Your Majesty, do you still remember the tea we drank last time?”
Li Shi Min's eyes lit up." Of course I remember. It's bitter, but it tastes good."”
"Your Majesty, why don't we do some business together?"”
Everyone turned to listen.
"Uncle, do you still lack this much money?" Li Shimin laughed.”
Zhangsun Wuji: " This…Your Majesty, you and Cheng Yaojin and…cough cough, the Crown Prince's teacher is doing business so happily.”
"I heard that His Majesty's private treasury has been receiving a lot of gold every day.”
"Isn't that 300,000 strings a year? Right now, the wealthiest person in the Great Tang had less than a million strings of property.”
Bai Wanjun's wealth could be said to be comparable to a country's wealth.
In other words, Li Shimin's private treasury could match the income of the national treasury in a year in three years.
The ministers were stunned.
The officials from the Ministry of Revenue were especially shocked.
How could His Majesty earn money?
Li Shi Min: " Nonsense. I have opened an iron factory. Every day, I have to produce more than 100 catties of refined steel. The cost is quite high. I can only earn 100 strings of coins a day.”
"I sent these steel to the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War.”
The ministers were enlightened.
It turned out that recently, His Majesty had taken out a large amount of refined steel and top-grade steel from his private warehouse because His Majesty had recently made a lot of money.
He wanted to use his own money to exchange for equipment for the Great Tang soldiers.
Cheng Yaojin: " Uncle, you're jealous. Hahahaha, our Old Cheng is still the fastest."”
"Isn't it a little too late for you to post it after seeing that you're making money?”
Li Shimin laughed and scolded," Cheng Yaojin, you silly fool. How can you show off after earning money? Do you know that you've made a fortune in silence? I'm prepared to collect taxes from you."”
Cheng Yaojin sobbed." Your Majesty, our factory has a restaurant. There are thousands of people supporting it. If you collect too much tax, it will collapse."”
Everyone was puzzled. What kind of business did His Majesty do? Could it be the recently popular Wuliang Liquor and the Drunken Immortal Restaurant?
Everyone's eyes lit up.
So that was what happened. No wonder he was earning so much money.
Right, the ironworks, cooking in iron pots, hotpot…If there was no ironworks, how could they provide so many pots?
Qin Shubao: " Old Cheng, recently my wife heard about the taste of stir-frying and wanted to try it too. You know that it's not good for women to go to places like restaurants.”
"Get me two iron pots?"
Cheng Yaojin: " This is a strategic resource. How are we going to make money if this gets out? How were they going to change the weapons of the Great Tang soldiers?”
"This…"
Li Shimin: " Alright, alright. Cheng Yaojin, give a pot to all the high-ranking officials above the second rank. Let them try the taste of cooking."”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
In front of them, the scout soldier quickly ran over."Your Majesty, currently, the Crown Prince and Cheng Chumo have the most prey and are ranked at the front. Qibi Heli and Ren Chengwang Li Zongdao are ranked third and fourth.”
"What the hell?" Although Qibi Heli was a surrendered general, his hunting skills were first-class. Why was he ranked third? Was he giving in to the Crown Prince?”
He Li is the Khan of the Eastern Turkic Qibi tribe, named He Li.
This person was very brave and proficient in Han culture, so Li Shimin entrusted him with an important task.
Li Jing was puzzled." I've already expected the fight between the Minister of Justice and He Li. Why are they only ranked third or fourth?"”Li Zongdao, the City Lord, was now the Minister of Justice.
It was precisely because he was the Minister of Justice, a King, and a Great General that Wei Zheng was able to take on the role of an attendant in the Ministry of Central Affairs.
For this spring hunt, Ren Chengwang was specially called back.
To put it simply, the generals participating in the spring hunt were the ones Li Shimin planned to use to attack Tuyuhun.
The scout raised his head." It shouldn't be General He Li and Prince Ren who deliberately want to give up the city, right?"
"Oh?" How did you come to this conclusion?"
The scout: " Your Majesty, I've calculated their current results. The Crown Prince has killed seven hares and one pheasant, and Young Master Cheng Chumo has killed a wolf and three hares.”
"General He Li captured a sheep, and so did the City Lord.”
"Thus, the Crown Prince and Cheng Chumo fought for the first and second place, with one having the most number and the other having the most prey.”
"The difference between third and fourth place and first and second place is huge.”
Everyone was shocked.
How long had it been since the beginning, and the Crown Prince had already hunted seven hares and one pheasant? Wasn't this a joke?
Could it be that someone deliberately placed prey on the Crown Prince's path?
But what was going on with Cheng Chumo? Why did he beat up a wolf in broad daylight?
Li Shimin: " Anyway, I have nothing to do. Let's go and take a look. Prepare the horses!"”
……
On a patch of grass, Li Chengqian sighed in his heart.
He didn't expect the sandbag formation taught by his teacher to have such a wonderful effect.
In the sandbag formation, no movement could be missed, and no sound could be heard.
Otherwise, he would be sent flying by the sandbag.
Therefore, Li Chengqian was now especially sensitive to sounds and flying shadows.
He didn't need a horse, he just walked on the grass. Once a wild rabbit passed by, he would be able to notice it immediately and shoot it with his arrows.
In the sandbag formation, he would be hit by hundreds of sandbags every minute. The number of sandbags he had to count was huge.
Here, there was only one prey every ten minutes.
Li Chengqian was waiting for his prey when he suddenly heard a scuttling sound in the grass.
What a huge commotion, this was…
"Wolf?" Li Chengqian turned around.
In the distance, Qin Qiong had just arrived.”
"Don't go. Let's see how he deals with it. It doesn't look like he's panicking."”
