Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

"They grow highland barley, and the harvest of that thing is not good, and the planting is hard."

"It's not as delicious as our wheat."

"So, we give them wheat. We also give them cotton coats."

"Then cut it off again, just like Duke Huan of Qi did."

Su Yu said.

Li Shimin felt a little strange when he heard it.

"My dear brother, you are right, but we can't give it away for nothing, right?"

Fang and Du nodded.

Give them wheat, give them cotton clothes, what are you trying to do?

Su Yu said: "There is Cordyceps sinensis in Tubo. Eating that thing can really prolong life and strengthen the body. It's not fake."

"Old Li, I gave Li Er this good idea. I want the franchise right of Cordyceps sinensis."

"Open a mutual market in Songzhou and Shanzhou City, and sell it in a large health drug store."

"I gave them wheat and cotton coats, and they dug us Cordyceps."

"In this way, Li Er can bring down Tubo."

"We could make a fortune."

When Li Shimin heard this, he understood that Su Yu was still making money for himself in the end.

"Brother, in the final analysis, it is you who benefit from this."

Su Yu smiled and said, "Speak with conscience, shouldn't I be benefited?"

"Li Er can't be so black-hearted."

Li Shimin is speechless: You have taken advantage of all the advantages, and I still have to bear the black heart.

Fang Xuanling clapped his hands and praised: "Young master Su, your plan can be recorded in the history books in the future."

The Sang country that Duke Huan of Qi dealt with was only a small country.

Tubo is a big tribe.

Su Yu brought down Tubo with a plan, and his name will definitely be included in future history books.

"Old Fang, don't hurt me. These are all your ideas and have nothing to do with me."

Su Yu said.

He doesn't want to be famous.

"Okay, it's all my old Li's idea, it has nothing to do with Brother Xian."

Li Shimin was overjoyed.

With this strategy, the downfall of Tubo is just around the corner.

Selling Cordyceps sinensis, I have a stake in the big health care, and can also share the money.

"Old Fang, that Cordyceps sinensis is very nourishing, you can take another concubine."

Su Yu said to Fang Xuanling bemusedly.

"really?"

Fang Xuanling's face became thicker, and it was not embarrassing to talk about such a shameful thing.

"really."

Su Yu nodded.

Du Ruhui secretly rejoiced: I can also take concubines again.

It was getting late, Li Shimin and the queen returned to Chang'an City.

Princess Changle refused to return to the palace, so she lived in Zhuangzi.

Back to the palace.

Li Shimin left Fang and Du in the imperial study.

The two of them heard the strategy just now clearly, and they knew exactly what to do.

They went to work that night.

After the Battle of Songzhou City, Tubo retreated to the plateau and dared not come down again.

He also sent envoys to offer treasures to apologize.

It also specifically stated that the monk Minghui, the national teacher sent by Li Shimin, became the Living Buddha of Tubo and served as the Tubo national teacher.

Minghui's disciples at Ganye Temple knew where Master was going and took the scriptures to the plateau.

Li Shimin also specially escorted them up.

The more these Buddhist bald donkeys go, the better.

Soon, the news of the conflict between the Bon religion and the Minghui monk came.

Li Shimin was overjoyed, Su Yu's strategy was really vicious.

More than a month,
Li Shimin was counting money in the imperial study.

The queen came in and saw him looking at the account book, and said with a smile: "The emperor has also become a miser?"

Li Shimin took the account book and said with a smile: "Guanyin maidservant, do you know that I earned 200 million guan from just selling Cordyceps sinensis."

The queen was surprised, and took the ledger to look through it.

She knew that Li Shimin had made money, but she didn't expect so much.

"The concubine thought it was a joke, but she didn't expect to make so much money."

Empress Changsun was very surprised after reading the accounts.

Li Shimin made 200 million guan, and Su Yu made even more money.

"But I'm also very worried. According to the accounts of the pharmacy, the aristocratic families in various places have a lot of money in their hands."

"As far as the rich people in Chang'an City are concerned, those who bought Cordyceps sinensis to nourish the kidneys spent several million guan."

"These people hold a lot of money, but they have no contribution to the court. They are all moths."

Li Shimin said bitterly.

The queen held the ledger and said, "Your majesty, I also know that there are quite a few of these aristocratic families, but these wealthy families have accumulated power for a long time and cannot be eliminated overnight."

Starting from Cao Pi's Ninth-rank Official Personnel Law, the history of more than 450 years, even if it is a cancer, dare not dig it.

The clansmen and disciples of these great clans are scattered all over the court.

If you move them, the consequences will be disastrous.

Li Shimin shook his head and said: "Of course I know, but these aristocratic families control the government and oppose me many times. It won't work if we don't get rid of them."

Several major events, whether it is the destruction of Turks or dealing with Tubo, these rich and powerful families have played tricks openly and secretly.

More importantly, when Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng competed for the throne, these big families supported Li Jiancheng.

"Your Majesty, don't act too hastily, but take it slowly."

The queen said in a low voice, afraid that the walls have ears.

Li Shimin said: "Perhaps, Su Yu has a solution."

The queen joked: "Su Yu himself is a wealthy family, so to discuss with him is not to seek skin from a tiger."

Li Shimin knew that the queen was joking.

Su Yu is just a wealthy family with a lot of money, which is different from those wealthy families who control the government.

"That's right, the number one big dog in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin laughed.

"Then ask Su Yu next time to see if there is any way to get rid of these big clans. The five surnames are Qiwang, the rich clan in Shandong. If these people are not eliminated, they will be a disaster after all."

said the Queen.

"Oh, how is Chang Le's wedding dress?"

Li Shimin asked.

Changle is 12 years old this year. If the marriage age of empress Changsun is followed, she can marry Su Yu immediately.

"Why is the emperor so anxious?"

the queen asked with a smile.

"It's not that Su Yu asked me when I will pay back the money from time to time."

"I'm thinking about marrying Changle to him as soon as possible."

"Being his father-in-law, the debt owed will be treated as a dowry, and I will search him hard."

Li Shimin did the math.

After Changle got married, all the debts owed were written off, and more dowry gifts were required.

Marrying a daughter is estimated to be enough for Datang's expenses for several years.

"Your Majesty and Su Yu have fought each other, and they are both profiteers."

The queen laughed.

"It's not all forced by Su Yu. I am the majestic king of a country, and I care about how much money I make all day long."

Li Shimin shook his head and smiled.

"Changle's wedding dress needs to be redone. This girl has grown too much taller with Su Yu, beyond my concubine's expectations."

"Originally, I thought that I would be similar to Chenqie back then, but now I am already a head taller than Chenqie."

said the Queen.

Su Yu eats beef and drinks milk every day, and follows Su Yu very much.

Unlike in the palace, the princess must be gentle and dignified, not like a wild girl.

"Then do it again."

"I'll go to Sujiazhuang tomorrow and ask how to get rid of Qiwang and Shandong Hao."

Li Shimin is determined to get rid of these cancers.

Snapped!
The Queen slapped her face.

Summer is here, there are many mosquitoes, and the queen was bitten by a big bag.
