At the same time. Taiji Palace.
Li Shimin read the memorial and felt frustrated.
Sigh, I wonder how the green sparrow is doing? She wondered if she was hungry or wronged outside alone.
Would it be dangerous?
Now that the world was not peaceful and the Turks were not at peace, who knew how many spies were lurking in Chang 'an. If he knew that his green sparrow had become a commoner on the streets…
Humph!
He wanted to cut ties with me himself.
I, Li Shi Min, don't care about that little bastard. Unfilial son who didn't know what was good for him!
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became.
Li Shiming threw away the cinnabar pen in his hand.
"Your Majesty?"
The old eunuch at the side asked with concern,""Is Your Majesty worried about the Fourth Prince? This old servant has heard some news."
Li Shi Min's eyes flashed with a tsundere look,"Shut up. I don't want to know if he's dead or alive. What does it have to do with me? Would I be worried about him? Unless he takes the initiative to apologize to zhen, zhen will not forgive him.”
The old eunuch nodded as he understood Li Shiming's hint. It seemed that he had to find a time to leave the palace to persuade the Fourth Prince. He could say that his father wanted him to admit his mistake and give him a way out. Otherwise, he would lose face.
Just as he was thinking, a young eunuch rushed in. He bowed to Li Shiming and whispered something into the old eunuch's ear.
"What?"
"I see." The old eunuch was surprised for a moment. Go, investigate again and report again."
"Yes."
After the young eunuch left, Li Shiming pretended to look out of the window and observed the old eunuch's expression from the corner of his eye.
After a long time.
"Is it news about that unfilial son again?" Li Shimin said indifferently.”
"Yes, Your Majesty." The old eunuch nodded.”
Li Shiming glanced at the old eunuch from the corner of his eye. Seeing that he was silent, he couldn't help but wave his sleeve and hint,
"Hmph, I don't want to hear it at all."
The old eunuch was stunned. Then, he understood what Li Shiming meant and quickly said,
"But this old minister must tell His Majesty. This was a very important matter.”
Without giving Li Shimin a chance to speak, the old eunuch continued,
"The factory that the Fourth Prince bought over in Pingkang Lane is called the Heavenly Earth Bath Center.”
Li Shi Min frowned and muttered,
"Heavenly Earth? How generous…"
"Fang Xuanling, Duke of Liang, is going to visit." According to what he knew, the Fourth Prince had personally said that once his bathing center was operating normally. Your daily income will reach 30,000 strings."
"What?!"
Li Shi Min couldn't keep up the pretense anymore. He opened his eyes wide and shouted,"How much?"
"Thirty thousand strings."
The old eunuch continued,"Lord Fang said that the Fourth Prince told him that he earns thirty thousand strings of money every day and that he has to pay three thousand strings of money every day. The monthly tax would be 90,000 strings.”
"90,000 strings!"
Li Shi Min was completely shocked.
90,000 strings?
The monthly tax alone would cost 90,000 strings?
What did this mean?
Most importantly…wouldn't he be earning hundreds of thousands of yuan a month? As the old saying went, a person was extremely wealthy. However, that was only 10,000.
However, what did it mean to earn hundreds of thousands of strings a month?
This…This was wealth comparable to a country, right? A mere bathhouse? Just this? 30,000 strings a day?
The old eunuch continued in a heavy tone,"
"The Fourth Prince said that a monthly tax of 90,000 strings. The concept of 90,000 strings of coins was that it could allow at least 100,000 refugees from Hedong Road to live for another month. 90,000 strings of strings could control the flood of the Yellow River and save hundreds of thousands of people along the way. 90,000 strings can be invested in fertile farmland, allowing more people in the Great Tang to live…"
"The more money he earns, the more he will invest in more industries and give more jobs to the people of the Great Tang. Create more wealth and taxes."
"Let more people live. Let more people eat and wear warm clothes. This way, the Great Tang wouldn't have to be short of money when it marched on the Turks, and it would be able to muster up the courage to advance without any consideration for logistics.”
"This is the meaning of his business. Save the country in a roundabout way!"
Hiss--
Li Shi Min took a deep breath and his eyes turned red.
Let the hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in Hedong Road live for another month?
Let more people of the Great Tang live?
So that the Lion of the Great Tang would not have to worry about anything?
Save the country through a roundabout way?
Li Shi Min was shocked.
As expected of my Saint Child!
