Master Li Quan Li, in the hearts of all the ministers, he is like a god. There is no one else in the world to compete with him. Can you not be respectful?

Everyone thought that Mr. Li should be at the time when the "spring" wind is proud, and if you want wind and rain, you should be full of "spring" wind, but why is Mr. Li so sad now?

The sad expression on Li Quan's face could not be concealed even if he wanted to, and the ministers gradually became puzzled.

It's just that I dare not show much above the court.

Li Quan walked to the front of the hall step by step, and stood quietly in his original position after completing the etiquette.

"Li Quan, how long has it been since you came to court?"

As for the position of Steel Knife, the emperor above asked softly.The voice is the same as usual, no change can be heard.

This made Li Quan relax a little, and responded awkwardly: "It's been a while, but I forgot how much."

"Li Quan, you can't be so lazy. You should know what's going on in this world."

Li Quan didn't understand what the emperor meant by these words for a while, it was obviously early, why did it seem like he was chatting about everyday things?

I can only respond respectfully: "Yes, I obey the order."

"Then I will tell you right now that the imperial court is facing a crisis. I summoned you here because I want you to think of a way for me."

Li Quan was taken aback, and said to himself that before, no matter how big or small the affairs were, he had always been on the sidelines, and had never participated in the opinions. Why did he suddenly call himself to provide opinions this time?

Amidst the doubts, some ministers had come out to join him and said, "Master Li is extremely intelligent, and he will definitely be able to solve the emperor's worries and problems."

The minister said it easily, with a smile on his face.The same goes for other people.

It is estimated that they thought that the emperor wanted Li Quan to officially participate in politics, paving the way for the future.The emperor should be very happy to make this decision, so the ministers are also relaxed.

But Li Quan didn't think so. Although the emperor's words might indeed be paving the way for him, it didn't seem that simple.

"Please speak, Your Majesty, I will do my best."

After a short pause, the emperor said: "My Daqing seems to be prosperous and peaceful, but I know that things are not as good as they seem. The treasury has been tight, and with the recent war, the treasury has been in a deficit. The minister asks for advice on how to deal with it."

Treasury shortfall?

All the ministers looked at each other, a little puzzled.

Obviously, everyone did not see that the national treasury was in a deficit, but only the emperor knew the real situation.Since the emperor said so, it must be so.

After being puzzled, the ministers began to discuss and express their opinions at the same time.

After discussing for a while, the emperor said: "What you said can only solve the urgent need, but cannot solve the problem fundamentally. I do have an idea, and only Lord Li can complete this matter."

.

Chapter 796: Annexation of Family Property

The emperor openly said in court that only Li Quan could complete it. Everyone looked at Li Quan and guessed something at the same time. .

Li Quan is not only the famous Mr. Li, but also the richest Mr. Li who is second to none in Daqing and even in the whole world.No one knows exactly how much the Li family's property is, but they all know that it is more than money. If Mr. Li said it was second, no one would call it the first.If it is said that Master Li is richer than the emperor, it is estimated that most people will believe it.

Now that the national treasury is in short supply, the emperor asked Li Quan to find a way by name, didn't he just make it clear that Li Quan should donate some money?

Li Quan also thought so, although he was reluctant, but the emperor had to give him face.So he replied: "Your Majesty, the minister can raise 500 million taels for the imperial court in a week to solve the urgent need."

500 taels!

Li Quan's opening really stunned the ministers present, he thought that Mr. Li was generous in his actions, and he didn't frown when he donated 500 million taels to the court.

Five million taels is not too much for the Li family, but it is definitely not too little, and it is definitely a huge sum for the court.

Li Quan thought that such a number should satisfy the emperor. Unexpectedly, the emperor did not show any expression after hearing this. After the ministers recovered from the shock, he slowly said, "Li Quan, you misunderstood what I meant. .”

Misunderstand?

"Isn't it for money? What is it for?"

Li Quan didn't understand now.

The emperor looked at Li Quan and smiled: "Although 500 million taels is a large amount, the money will eventually be 'spent'. Now that the court taxation is difficult to achieve a balance of revenue and expenditure, I have been thinking hard about the solution. Thinking about it, I feel that if the Li family's property is 'handed over' to the imperial court for unified management, and the income from the Li family's property is expanded into the national treasury, the life of the imperial court will surely be much easier in the future."

Halfway through hearing this, Li Quan's pupils shrank, his expression was cloudy, and he lowered his head, thinking silently.

The emperor's plan is not ordinary!Want all the properties of the Li family?

Such a big opening of the lion shocked everyone again.All of a sudden, various ideas emerged from everyone's mind.

"Li Quan, what do you think?" Seeing that no one spoke, the emperor asked again, "You don't have to be so nervous, I just let the court help you take care of it for a while. In the end, your properties will not Do they all want to return to your hands?"

This remark made the ministers heave a sigh of relief, thinking that it was the case, anyway, Mr. Li is going to be the emperor, and he will own the whole country in the future, so why should he care about that little property?

The minister's idea is simple.

However, Li Quan felt the pressure, and the experience of Prince Jing suddenly appeared in his mind. He was once a generation of commercial overlord in the capital, but he was swallowed up by the emperor in one gulp.

"Could it be that I want to follow in the footsteps of Prince Jing?"

However, the current situation is somewhat different from Prince Jing's. Compared with the throne, losing this bit of property is nothing to worry about.The key is what is the emperor's state of mind now?

Li Quan reckoned that since the emperor took such a measure, he must have compromised his trust, and it was all done by the national teacher.But the emperor obviously didn't fully believe the words of the national teacher, so he adopted this method without revealing any traces.

The motive of the national teacher is unknown, and the emperor must have been deceived.And the emperor had great trust in the national teacher. Before there was any evidence to prove that the national teacher had something wrong with him, it would definitely be counterproductive for Li Quan to speak out his worries rashly.

At this time, all he could do was to cooperate as much as possible, so as not to create a gap in the emperor's heart because of his own impulse.

To be honest, the current Li Quan is not so fancy about the so-called property. With the remaining money in the family alone, the family can't eat it all in a few lifetimes. If you trust a point, you can eat the loss.

After a little thought, Li Quan made up his mind: "I obey the order."

The simple three words made the emperor 'show' a satisfied smile.

Afterwards, the court did not discuss any major matters, only heard that the emperor had arranged some business handover matters, and left the court early.

……

……

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Li Quan saw many of his shopkeepers blocking the door, all expressions were anxious.An Xinhe and An Fu are negotiating something with them.

Seeing Li Quan came back, everyone gathered around and told each other what happened today.

Although the voice was messy, I could hear the general idea. It was all about the people who met the court today saying that they wanted to take over the business of the Li family.

The shopkeepers didn't dare to argue with the people in the court, so they had to go to Li's house for help.
