People are in the Tang Dynasty, creating a mythical dynasty

However, such a policy also has problems.

But as long as Datang can continuously purchase wool, cattle and sheep, and Datang maintains absolute strength, then there will be no major problems.

Especially wool.

Unlike cattle and sheep, cattle and sheep may only grow out in a few years, but wool is available almost every year, so this can ensure that herdsmen will gradually change from raising cattle, sheep and horses to raising sheep. more, and fewer horses.

At that time, the threat will naturally disappear.

"Hmph, horses can still be used as cavalry, what's the use of cattle and sheep?"

"There is also wool. You think that our Tang Dynasty has too much money and no place to spend it?"

Li Chengqian couldn't help but speak again.

And listening to the words of his elder brother, the corners of Li Ming's mouth twitched a little, and his eyes couldn't help looking at the other party.

For some reason, he always felt that Li Chengqian's body was vaguely black.

It's just blurry and not so clear.

But while Li Chengqian was speaking, the black air seemed to be beating a little bit.

But being looked at by Li Ming's strange eyes, Li Chengqian only felt uncomfortable.

But just when he was about to get angry, Li Shimin looked over coldly, and Li Chengqian closed his mouth instantly.

"Fourteen, you mean to buy only cattle and sheep, not horses!"

Li Shimin's eyes flickered, he looked at Li Ming, and asked with an uncertain question.

"Correct!"

"Father, you may have heard of Guan Zhong's method of dealing with Lu State in the past."

Li Ming nodded and spoke immediately.

"Oh, Guan Zhongzhi's method?"

Li Shimin couldn't help being curious.

"Father, Duke Huan of Qi banned the production of tis in his country, but he made them popular, so he purchased a large number of tis with the state of Lu, and the people engaged in weaving tis in Lu and Liang also got a very considerable income, so there are more people. People began to work in weaving rice. Because of the large amount of sales, Lu and Liang also received a lot of taxes. Even if they did not collect agricultural taxes from the people, it was enough for the country's finances. The kings of Lu and Liang were very happy because of this. , issued an order to encourage the common people to engage in weaving, hoping to gain more benefits from it. After the order was issued, the people in Lu and Liang would grow fewer grains.”

"Guan Zhong immediately ordered the closure of the gates with Lu and Liang, and cut off economic exchanges. Ten months later, Guan Zhong sent people to inquire again and learned that both Lu and Liang were in famine."

Speaking slowly, Li Ming told a story about the Spring and Autumn Period.

It is also the scene of the first economic war in the entire history of China, or in the history of the world.

And listening to Li Ming's words, Li Shimin's eyes became more and more bright, while Li Chengqian's complexion couldn't help turning dark.

Li Chengqian was not a fool, so he naturally heard what Li Ming meant at this time.

But at this moment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak again.

"If you don't harvest horses, I don't know, but what's the use of your wool? Guan Zhong buys it, and it can be worn by the country. What's the use of your dirty wool."

Li Chengqian's words carried a cold snort.

But at this moment, his reaction made Li Shimin frown again.

But at this moment, Li Ming didn't care about it.

Li Chengqian's opening was just to help him.

"Father, my son has a way to turn waste into treasure. For the purchase of wool, the father only needs to hand it over to the Shaofu. The Shaofu is willing to hand over 100 million guan, no, 200 million guan to the treasury every year as the profit from the purchase."

Li Ming opened his mouth with a confident expression on his face.

Just kidding, this is the textile industry.

A real profiteering industry.

The empire on which the sun never sets during the industrial revolution can know how profitable it is because of the incident of sheep cannibalism.

In contrast, cattle and sheep are not so important.

This is true even if cattle are the most important material in this era.

"really?"

Upon hearing Li Ming's words, Li Shimin looked over instantly with an unbelievable expression.

200 guan.

We must know that in today's Datang, even after nine years of Wude and three years of Zhenguan's gradual recovery, coupled with Li Ming's handwriting, the current fiscal revenue of the entire Datang has only just passed about 1000 million guan, 200 million guan, Almost one-fifth of fiscal revenue.

Of course, this does not include the income of Shaofu today.

Even Li Ming may not be too clear about the annual income of the entire Shaofu.

Li Shimin was naturally even more unclear.

When he said let go, he really let go.

In the past three years, Li Shimin has not interfered with all the actions of the Shaofu.

And looking at Li Shimin's excited expression.

Li Ming did not hesitate at all.

"My son is willing to issue a military order!"

The words are sonorous, with incomparable affirmation.

"it is good!"

"I will notify Li Jue, governor of Bingzhou, Chai Shao, governor of Lingzhou, and Xue Wanche, governor of Lingzhou, about this matter, and ask them to cooperate with the Shaofu in purchasing wool!"

"As for the acquisition of cattle and sheep, I will discuss it in the court council!"

Li Shimin nodded, without any hesitation at this moment.

Of course, Li Ming knew the benefits of this plan.

Although this will bring huge financial pressure to the imperial court, with the 200 million guan that Li Ming promised each year, this is not a big problem.

200 million guan, definitely enough to complete the acquisition of cattle and sheep.

There might even be a balance left.

This is not financial pressure.

After all, among the cattle and sheep, sheep needless to say, after the wool is purchased, the sheep will most likely not be sold, but the cattle will be sold, and a large number of cattle is enough to make Datang's arable land more efficient, and it is safe to make money without losing money.

And when Li Shimin responded.

Li Ming also retreated consciously.

But before he left, he couldn't help looking at Li Chengqian.

That puff of black air is still looming.

This made him frown.

After all, this is not an ordinary world. If it were an ordinary world, it might just be dizziness, but this is the world of Journey to the West, and it is impossible for dizziness to exist.

But obviously, he couldn't find out.

When he looked at him, Li Chengqian's eyes were filled with fierceness.

Li Ming shook his head and suppressed his thoughts.

And soon, the army finally appeared in the distance.

Next, of course, is the most common one in the dynasty to welcome the triumphant division.

The victorious class division of the army on the expedition must perform the ceremony of triumph.The military band beat and beat all the way, playing triumphant music, and all the soldiers sang triumphant songs in unison.When they came to the suburbs of the capital, all the ministers would come out of the city to welcome the emperor himself.If it is a teacher who is ordered to go out, the emperor will greet him in person, or send an envoy out of the city to greet him, as a show of condolences.

When the army returns from triumph, they must first go to the Taimiao and Taishe to pay a funeral to the ancestors of heaven and earth, and present the ceremony of victory and captives.To present victory means to report the news of victory to the ancestors of heaven and earth, and thank them for their protection.Offering prisoners means offering all kinds of spoils of war, including captives, to be dealt with.

Today's Datang is also such a set of procedures.

And when this set of procedures was completed, it was almost seven days later.

The figure of Li Ming returned to Shaofu.

I also saw Qin Huaidao, Cheng Chuliang, and the 800 people again.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

One after another silhouettes spoke in unison, each person's body was full of blood, and the powerful aura made the air a little sticky, and the eyes looking at Li Ming became even more frenzied at this moment.

Looking at these people, Li Ming's eyes couldn't help but froze.

Especially Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang.

The blood energy that was about to escape from the two of them was enough to show that they were about to break through the Blood Exchange Realm at this moment.

Obviously, this war also has unimaginable benefits for the practice of martial arts.

After all, these people do not have such conditions as him.

He not only has the blood of the real dragon, but also the soul of the real dragon.

These people only use the Aquarium, and the gap can be imagined.

According to Li Ming's original estimate, it would take at least five years for these people to break through the blood-changing realm, and it might even take ten years, or even twenty years.

But now, only less than a year.

The blood of 800 people is like a rainbow. Looking at this situation, they will definitely break through within three years. Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang are even vaguely about to break through the blood exchange realm.

The speed was many times faster than he had imagined.

"it is good!"

"not bad!"

"Hahaha!"

Li Ming smiled and patted Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang, and then expressed his affirmation to the 800 people.

And with Li Ming's affirmation, these people couldn't help being extremely excited.

After a war, their confidence in Li Ming was undoubtedly even greater.

The horror of the explosives made them see the incredibleness of their Highness, and the exercises they practiced made them feel like a god.

In a short period of time, they have been completely reborn compared to the original ones.

Not only himself, but even his identity has changed.

A few years ago, they were still homeless refugees, but a few years later, not only has his life improved unprecedentedly, he has gained unimaginable strength, and more importantly, his identity has also changed.

Everyone present has achieved great military exploits.

If they wanted to, as long as they joined the army at this moment, they would be able to obtain at least the status of Corporal Commander, and at most they could even be directly promoted to Thousand Commander.

This is an existence that they didn't even dare to imagine in the past, but this moment is within reach.

And these are undoubtedly given by Li Ming.

Without Li Ming, how could they have what they are today.

Maybe it has starved to death on the side of the road, maybe it has become a wild dog's lunch.

Not to mention the current glory, it may be extremely difficult to survive.

But Li Ming gave them everything.

Even now, the future is still full of infinite possibilities.

Chapter 115 Level [-] National Strength, Martial Arts Second Realm

The Eastern Turks are gone, and the entire Tang Dynasty has undoubtedly entered into relative stability. For the Shaofu, and for Li Ming, the only change is that there is an additional purchase of wool, and 200 million guan are handed over to the treasury.

For general departments, the expenditure of 200 million is undoubtedly extremely huge.

But for the Shaofu, it really wasn't a big deal.

In particular, Li Ming has opened the door to the textile industry, not to mention 200 million guan, if he can let go, 2000 million guan is possible.

Among the Shaofu.
