Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

What Li Shimin thought of was the war national debt that Li You mentioned before.

At that time, Li You said that the war national debt is most suitable for the Turkic battle, but after so long, Li Shimin can't remember many details of it clearly.

After thinking about it carefully, Li Shimin still decided to call Li You over and ask him directly.

Besides Li You, Changsun Wuji, Fang Du and others were also called over by Li Shimin.

Although the idea came from Li You, the real operation still depends on these ministers.

After Li You read the battle report, Li Shimin said, "Your, I'm going to take advantage of the victory to pursue and wipe out the East Turks in one fell swoop. What do you think?"

Li You already had this idea when Li Jing led the troops to threaten Xue Yantuo, and now when Li Shimin said it, Dang even nodded in his heart.

【Let me just say, this is why Li Er sent an army to frighten Xue Yantuo. 】

[It seems that the Weishui alliance brought a lot of shadows to Li Er. It is said that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. I think Li Er does not want to wait any longer. 】

However, although he was very sure about this expedition in his heart, Li You said with some concern in his mouth: "Father, although the current Tang army is strong and strong, since entering this year, Huo Guogong has led the Youwuwei army. There are two battles with Master Liang."

"Although the Tang army suffered few casualties in these two battles, the continuous fighting put a lot of pressure on the army's supplies."

"Although the Ministry of Finance still has enough energy to support the continuation of the war, the resulting emptiness of the national treasury is a very dangerous signal."

"Once there are any other natural and man-made disasters this year, the imperial court may not be able to provide relief in time!"

Although Li Shimin knew that Li You's mouth was wrong, but Li You's words just hit his heart.

'Smelly boy, although your words are inconsistent, it is precisely because of your embarrassment that you have given me a chance to express myself. '

He smiled slightly and said, "Your'er's words are not wrong, the current state of the treasury really cannot support such a big war."

"For this reason, I also thought hard for a long time, and finally found the answer to this question in Yu'er."

Li You was shocked again when he heard that the answer was on him.

[What's the situation, why is the answer on me! 】

[Could it be that Li Er is planning to confiscate my Shence Mansion! 】

[Although the industries of Shence Mansion seem to be cash cows, if labor and capital quit, who will help you. 】

[At that time, all you will get is a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron! 】

Hearing the rhetoric of death in Li You's heart, Li Shimin almost shouted out of anger.

At the last moment, Li Shimin held back his cursing and said, "What are you thinking about? I gave you the Divine Strategy Mansion. As long as you don't make any serious mistakes, I have no intention of taking it back."

Li Shimin went on to say: "What I'm talking about is You'er's method of borrowing money on the grassland."

"I am going to borrow money from the family to fight this battle!"

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji immediately frowned and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm pouring cold water on you. It's very difficult to borrow money from the aristocratic family in this situation!"

"If you force the aristocratic family to borrow money, I'm afraid it will cause domestic turmoil again."

"From this point of view, this battle is worse than a long-term plan."

After Changsun Wuji finished speaking, Fang Xuanling also said, "Your Majesty, you must think twice about this matter."

"It's not only difficult for these aristocratic families to borrow money, even if they are willing to take out the money, the interest rate must be frighteningly high."

"In this way, even if the Turks are defeated, the imperial court may bear even greater pressure."

After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, he turned to look at Du Ruhui beside him.

However, this time, he did not hear the familiar phrase "Xuan Ling's words are very true".

This time, after Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Du Ruhui fell silent.

Although Du Ruhui also felt that it was not wise to borrow money from the aristocratic family in order to conquer the Turks at this time, but he also felt that Li Shimin's idea seemed not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

And this idea came from Li You, which made Du Ruhui feel that he couldn't draw conclusions simply.

Finally, under everyone's gaze, Du Ruhui said: "Although your majesty's idea is bold, it may not be unfeasible."

"Please tell us about this plan in detail, Your Majesty."

Li Shimin also didn't expect that this time Du Ruhui was actually the one who was on the same side as him.

He smiled again and said, "Look, it's better for Keming to understand clearly before making a judgment."

"Actually, this time I'm not borrowing from the aristocratic family, but from the entire Tang Dynasty, issuing war bonds!"

"The bond this time is similar to the one issued by Youer on the Grassland. It lasts for two years and can be redeemed at the household offices in various places after maturity, but there is no fixed interest rate."

"After the victory of this war, I will use [-]% of the spoils to pay the bond principal and proceeds."

"The [-]% of the income I mentioned includes the captured cattle and sheep, gold and silver, slaves and land."

After saying this, Changsun Wuji and the others gasped.

However, when they thought about Li Shimin's plan carefully, they felt a deep shock.

They seem to have been opened a new door, a brand new field appeared in front of them.

Thousands of words merged into one sentence: "Damn it, you can still play like this in war!"

Changsun Wuji, who came to his senses, was the first to speak: "I don't know how many war bonds His Majesty plans to issue?"

"I am willing to subscribe for [-] Guan on behalf of the eldest grandson's family."

In his opinion, there is no suspense in the battle between the Great Tang and the Turks. According to the current comparison of the combat power between the Great Tang and the Eastern Turks, the Great Tang will win at a very small cost.

And the time of this battle is very likely to end within half a year.

Don't look at the fact that Turks seem to have little money up and down since Jieli Khan, but what is the most valuable thing in Turkic grasslands?
It's land, it's slaves.

Although Li Shimin only used 300% as bond income, according to Changsun Wuji's initial estimate, it was nearly [-] million.

If Li Shimin issues 200 million war bonds, the family can get [-]% of the interest in just half a year.

How can there be such a risk-free and profitable thing in the world.

Although the eldest grandson Wuji took the lead, Fang and Du were unwilling to be left behind, and expressed their desire to subscribe.

In such a scene, Li Shimin was naturally delighted from ear to ear.

The three people in front of me are all representatives of iron roosters. If these three people can show such enthusiasm, then the other aristocratic families outside must be even more unbearable.

But at this moment, Li You's heart was even more surging.

[Fuck me, is Li Er enlightened! 】

[Such a costless and profitable model was conceived by him. 】

[I really didn't expect that Li Er is not only a military genius, but also a good hand at cutting leeks! 】

[After the war is over, he will distribute the land to the major families in the form of knighthood. At that time, in order to ensure their own interests, those families will not be determined to help him guard the frontier! 】

[It really didn’t cost a penny. Not only did they beat Turkic, but they even found the people who would help him guard one side in the future. 】

[Poor eldest grandson Wuji and others, they are still counting the money happily after being sold. 】
