"Is there really no other way?"
Halfway through the meal, Du Ruhui still asked.
"No!" Li Yun shook his head firmly and comforted her sincerely,
"I'm telling you, don't go astray just to take a shortcut!”
Hearing this, Du Ruhui almost choked on his food!
He was already so old, but he was actually educated by a youth younger than his son!
More importantly, he had no way to refute it!
Helplessly, he could only shut his mouth and eat silently.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this." Fang Xuanling said.
"Last time, I was busy and didn't come over. Later, I heard about your wonderful ideas from Old Du.”
"But I think your idea is too whimsical. It's not feasible at all!”
Du Ruhui glanced at him.
This old fox had a hidden meaning in his words!
As expected, Li Yun was unhappy when he heard this.
"Why isn't it feasible? Tell me."
That idea was absolutely all-rounded and vicious. There could not be any loopholes!
"Your plan is good in every way, but it's too idealistic.”Fang Xuanling took a sip of wine and said unhurriedly.
"If you say this, I won't be sleepy anymore!”Hearing this, Li Yun was even more unhappy." I have to argue with you!”
"Hey, it's not that your plan is bad, but you don't understand the current situation of our Great Tang!”
"Right now, the Great Tang's treasury is empty and there are few officials. It's impossible to complete your plan!”
"How many officials and money would be needed to support such a massive plan? With this old man's understanding of the Great Tang's current situation, this is impossible!”Fang Xuanling said resolutely.
"Is Li Er so poor now?”
Li Yun asked curiously.
He truly did not know that the Great Tang's treasury had become so empty!
You don't even have this much money?
No way!
As soon as he finished speaking, the corners of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's mouths twitched at the same time!
He must not let His Majesty know about this. Otherwise, he might be angered to death!
"Indeed, it's not rich. The years haven't been good for a few years, and His Majesty loves the people like his own children and is unwilling to increase taxes. It's not surprising that the national treasury has no money.”Fang Xuanling said in a muffled voice.
"Then what you said makes sense. I really didn't think of this.”Li Yun put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth.
"However…"
"If you say that my plan has loopholes based on this alone, then I won't admit it!”
"There are plenty of ways!"
Fang and Du's eyes lit up when they heard this!
He was here!
As expected, he still had a way!
"It's very simple. If there aren't enough officials, then don't send them.”
"The Great Tang would be crazy to use Turks as officials. Those who aren't of our race will have different intentions!”Fang Xuanling hurriedly shook his head.
"Why do you care what race he is? As long as he's obedient, it'll be fine!”
"Anyway, they don't need to do a good job. They just need to do their job as supervisors!”
"How do we make them obedient?" Du Ruhui asked.
"Choose a Turkic noble with a family and keep his relatives in Chang 'an. If they don't obey, kill them!”
"Then, we'll create a rift within the Turks and turn them against each other. They'll have no choice but to join our Great Tang!”
"With money and wine, corrupt him!”
"It's such a simple matter. Do you still need to ask?”
"Remember, the Beiting Protectorate only needs obedient villains, not talented people!”
Fang and Du listened very carefully and kept nodding.
These methods were very insidious, but they were not difficult to implement. They were completely feasible. The first problem was solved!
"Even if this problem is solved, the problem of money can't be solved!”
"Didn't you say that you can't earn a lot of wealth in a short time?”
"If we drag this out for a while, the Turkic steppe will recover and it will be difficult to control it!”Fang Xuanling continued to ask.
"I said that you can't make money, but I didn't say that the emperor can't!”Li Yun glanced at him and said.
"I'm willing to hear the details!" Fang Xuanling hurriedly said.
"These words are spoken by me and entered your ears. You can't let others know. If not, you might lose your head!”Li Yun said seriously.
"Just say it. Just treat it as our drunken gossip!”
"Old Du, you've seen my house full of money. Do you think it's convenient to keep it like this?”
"What's the inconvenience?" Du Ruhui was puzzled." Isn't that what everyone does?”
There was no problem with his question. In this era, wealth was not exposed. All the big families had a place to store their money and sent someone to manage it.
"You're a merchant, so you should have a deep understanding. You often travel north and south and often transport a few carts of money. Not only do you have to be on tenterhooks, but it's also inconvenient.”
"If you have a cabinet, you can give your money to them for safekeeping. They will give you a receipt. No matter where you are, as long as you have a cabinet, you can withdraw your money by showing the receipt.”
Li Yun said with a smile.
