Datang: My private money was exposed by Li Shimin

In the imperial study.

Changsun Wuji knelt down in front of Li Shimin excitedly, not paying any attention to Liu Zheng, Minister of the Household Department, who was also here sweating profusely.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, this action can be regarded as allowing His Majesty to win the hearts of the world. Now, most of the people in Chang'an City are grateful to Your Majesty!"

When he said these words, Changsun Wuji's voice trembled uncontrollably.

to be frank.

When he first got the news, he couldn't believe his ears.

after all.

Having followed Li Shimin for so many years, he also has a good understanding of the state of the court. The national treasury has long been an empty shelf, and it can't play any role in such a confrontation.

As for what Li Shimin said, Changsun Wuji once thought that the emperor was trying to hold on, but these recent events made him look at the emperor with admiration.

Leaving aside where the money came from, just to do these things requires a lot of courage, and even he himself may not be able to do it so easily.

"The world?" Li Shimin shook his head with a wry smile, then set his eyes on Liu Zheng next to him.

"This is the world. If it weren't for this abacus, even if I were the emperor, how would I dare to talk about the world?"

Speaking of this place, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh, if he didn't get the private money from Li Jian, even if he had ideas, it would be impossible to do these things.

Not to mention a complete confrontation with the family!
speak up.

Li Shimin recently formulated this grand plan, a considerable part of which came from the hints given in the records at the back of that scripture.

Now Liu Zheng is calculating the detailed bills of the treasury's revenue and expenditure. Since the disaster began, the treasury can be said to be unable to make ends meet. If it weren't for the sudden private money, he might have already packed up and left.

But even so, facing Li Shimin's grand plan, he, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance in charge of the world's money and food, was sweating profusely, biting the bullet and pushing forward.

During this period of time, I plan to see in a real sense what it means to spend money like water.

The price of food is rising every day. Behind the things the emperor did, it means that the money in the treasury is constantly flowing out.

From ancient times to the present, how many emperors have the courage to do this?
and so.

Don't look at Liu Zheng being trapped in the palace and going through quite tedious work every day, but his heart is quite excited and he doesn't feel tired at all.

For him, doing so can be regarded as making history.

"Your Majesty, this..." Changsun Wuji still looked at Li Shimin suspiciously.

in fact.

The doubts in his heart have always existed, the emperor has such a large amount of money, where did the money come from, he has never seen the Minister of the Household Department Liu Zheng be so busy, and he is still with the emperor.

For some reason, there was always a strange feeling in his heart.

Li Shimin looked at Changsun Wuji silently, and it took a long time before he smiled slightly.

He explained it very roughly. Of course, he didn't mention the specific details at all. He only said that Dai Wang Li Jian's private money can support all his plans.

Changsun Wuji was not a fool either. Looking at the emperor's confident state and Liu Zheng's busy appearance, he probably already knew the answer in his heart.

Although he didn't see so much gold and silver with his own eyes as Cheng Yaojin did, it probably still felt extremely unreal in the morning.

What kind of energy does Dai Wang possess to gather so much money?
but.

Changsun Wuji wisely didn't ask. The emperor didn't pursue such a matter, and he didn't need to get to the bottom of it.

The question now is, how long will this food-based confrontation last?

"Your Majesty's doing this is probably not just for the people of Chang'an, right?" Changsun Wuji was scheming, but he didn't see Li Shimin's real purpose clearly.

But I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say why.

There are many ways to buy people's hearts, and there is absolutely no need to die on this matter.

"It's just the beginning..." Li Shimin's mouth showed a sneer.

As Changsun Wuji said, he did this not only to support the people, but to buy food so frantically was also unintentionally raising the price of food.

And my own actions made the people of the family earn a lot of money. On the surface, it seemed that they lost terribly, but the family benefited from spending so much money.

but.

Li Shimin's eyes are not on money at all, what he values ​​is the power behind these actions.

"Now, in my name, you reiterate my intention once again. You will never force the purchase of grain. Anyone who is willing to offer grain will be bought by the imperial court at the same price!"

"No matter how much the price of grain rises, the price given by the court is always [-]% higher!" Li Shimin didn't explain his plan, but looked at Changsun Wuji and said in a low voice.

His game of chess still needs the cooperation of many people!
……

at the same time.

These people, represented by the aristocratic family, have fallen into a state of near madness.

The price of grain is still rising, and the imperial court is still buying continuously.

Now they only need to take out the food, and they can get a lot of money.

This is no longer the category of making money!

In a sense, every handful of grain is money!

In order to get more money, and to make the emperor surrender earlier, the major families began to move out the grain from their warehouses.

For them now, everything has become unimportant, as long as they take out the food, they can get unimaginable money.

From now on, they can lie on the white money without any worries, because money is more useful than anything at any time.

that's it.

Many grain shops that had been closed were opened again, and a large amount of grain began to be sold.

This has completely violated the original plan made by Li Yuankai and others. Their fundamental purpose is not for money, but to make the emperor feel afraid, and they will be under their control from then on.

but.

The current situation in Chang'an City has become crazy exchanging food for money. These people seem to have forgotten that they are doing these things to fight against the emperor.

Li Yuankai stood in his backyard, his expression extremely gloomy.

He already knew the situation outside very well. He clearly knew that this was the emperor's plan, but he could only helplessly watch helplessly.

"Things are out of control..." Li Yuankai slowly closed his eyes.

It was at this time that there were slight footsteps behind him.

"Father..." An extraordinary young man stood behind him...
