Not a good person, but a good emperor?
This was the first time Li Shimin had heard of this.
Ever since he ascended the throne, he had been working hard to make the country prosperous and did not dare to relax for a moment.
They were all thinking about the safety of the country and the people.
Therefore, he believed that he was worthy of being called a good emperor.
Fang Xuanling was relieved to see Li Shiming's expression change.
Then, he shook his head.
Li Yun really dared to say that!
This young man's talent, speech, and courage made him sincerely marvel!
"As for how to solve the food problem in Guanzhong.”Li Yun took a sip of wine, full of interest.
"It's actually very simple. Just ask them to donate.”
"This method won't work. It's been used many times in various places.”Fang Xuanling shook his head.
"Those aristocratic families will only do superficial work and donate a few dozen catties symbolically.”
"That's because the person who donated wasn't ruthless enough!”Li Yun sneered.
"What do you mean?" Fang Xuanling asked doubtfully.
"If I were the initiator, I would set up an inscription.”
"Put it in the most conspicuous place in the county for twenty years!”
"Every family that donated money, how much they donated, their family name, background, and assets, all of them are engraved!”
"Didn't they donate less?"
"Then let's make it public and carve it on the stone tablet forever. We'll display it for twenty years and let the people see!”
Hiss!
Too ruthless!
Fang Xuanling gasped!
He immediately understood Li Yun's intentions!
He wanted the local people to poke at the backbone of the aristocratic families!
The most important thing for these big families to survive was their reputation!
The most important thing was fame!
If they really donated dozens of catties of food, it would be engraved on the stone tablet.
Then, he would definitely be labeled as a rich and heartless man.
The reputation that he had accumulated over the years was destroyed in a flash!
At that time, they would definitely donate hundreds or even thousands of times more in order to change the words on the stone tablet.
There was even a possibility that they would fight for a good spot on the stone tablet and donate a lot!
In this way, the problem of food could really be solved!
Fang Xuanling and Li Shiming exchanged a glance, their eyes shining!
This method was feasible!
Especially Emperor Li Er. He couldn't wait to go back and gather his ministers to settle this matter.
After Li Yun finished speaking, he deliberated and said,
"Old Fang was right. We do know some high-ranking officials in Chang 'an.”
"Your talent should not be buried in this small place. How about we introduce you to the court?”
Fang Xuanling gave Li Yun a meaningful look.
He understood that this was the Emperor's reward!
With Second Emperor Li's current level of importance, Li Yun's career could be said to have a boundless future!
However, what he did not expect was…
Li Yun shook his head after hearing Second Emperor Li's words.
"Official?"
"This is not my ambition."
"Moreover, there are too many rules in the court.”
"No!"
Li Shi Min was dumbfounded!
He had never seen anyone who wasn't interested in becoming an official.
Hence, he gave Fang Xuanling a look.
Old Fang understood.
"In this day and age, calamities are endless. It's still safer to become an official in the court.”
"At least I won't have to worry about starving."
"And don't worry, the person we know is a high-ranking official!”
"With his help, your career will definitely soar.”
"Isn't it beautiful to be conferred the title of Marquis and to worship the Prime Minister?”
Li Yun was unmoved.
"I'm the only one in my family. There's nothing to be proud of. My life is actually quite good now.”
Become an official?
Li Yun had never considered it at all!
What's so good about being an official!
He was also restricted and had to clock in for work every morning. Wasn't it tiring?
Wasn't it nice to be an idle rich man in his own village?
There were people waiting on them to dress and eat.
He did not lack money or food.
He could also research new technologies.
This kind of life was leisurely and free. Wasn't it happy?
"Forget it. Thank you for your kindness, but that's not my goal.”
"Don't tell me you still want to farm in this countryside for the rest of your life?”Fang Xuanling panicked when he heard this.
"A real man should have ambitions all over the world. How can he stay here?”
"What's wrong with farming?" Li Yun was unhappy.
"Without food, how can we expand our territory?”
"Without food, how can we let the people live in peace?”
"Old Fang, there is a problem with your way of thinking. The people live by eating, and food is the foundation of food.”
"In this world, nothing is more important than food!”
Fang Xuanling was stunned by Li Yun's words.
He really couldn't refute this.
Farming was the most important thing in history.
"I just feel that with your talent, you shouldn't be like this.”
Li Shi Min added,
"Farming is indeed important, but you're young and knowledgeable. You should shine on a bigger stage.”
"You can't farm forever, right?”
Li Yun took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
"Why not?"
"This Young Master will farm and plant a f * cking auspicious golden age!”
P.S.: A whole night has passed, but the statistics have not increased at all. This is the rhythm of the end. The author is very anxious!!
