Watching the two sit down, Li Ming didn't beat around the bush but asked directly.
"Yes, Your Highness, I don't know how many refugees His Highness wants to recruit, is it ten thousand, or tens of thousands?"
Listening to Li Ming's question, Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang looked at each other, and it was Qin Huaidao who finally asked.
"Ten thousand, tens of thousands?"
Li Ming shook his head amusedly.
Seeing Li Ming shaking his head, Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang were a little disappointed.
"Your Highness, you don't mean only a few thousand people!"
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help but speak, his voice muffled.
"Listen to what I have to say!"
He opened his mouth angrily.
Then when the two of them quieted down, the words came out slowly.
"What this king means is that if it is possible, this king needs an engineering team worth a million dollars!"
Word by word.
Not big.
But at the moment of making the sound, both Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang's bodies couldn't help but tremble.
"This!"
Qin Huaidao stood up instantly at this moment, and looked at Li Ming with wide eyes.
"million!"
Cheng Chuliang only felt that his throat was stuck.
"Your Highness, you, are you kidding me!"
Cheng Chuliang stuttered.
"This is no joke."
"Nowadays, the roads in the Tang Dynasty are more than one million feet long, and the roads, houses, buildings, and the Grand Canal need to be built. All of these require manpower. How many people do you think you need?"
"Millions, no, maybe more."
Li Ming's leisurely answer.
Words carry affirmation.
How many infrastructure workers were there in the country in the previous life, one million?Ten million, no, that is tens of millions of people.
Although the population of the entire Tang Dynasty is now more than 2000 million, the million-dollar infrastructure is simply a joke.
But he didn't say it's now a million.
Millions in ten years, and millions in 100 years will be millions.
It's just a cake.
Of course the bigger the better.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid you can't do this, and Datang may not be able to support it!"
After a while, Qin Huaidao gradually calmed down, shook his head and sighed softly.
And his words made Cheng Chuliang gradually calm down.
It's just that they haven't waited for them to continue to think about it carefully.
Li Ming's words sounded again.
"That's just for now. Now that the Tang Dynasty is rich and strong, when it is officially restored, we will recruit [-] refugees this year. Next year, this king can guarantee that we will recruit no less than [-] refugees, and no less than [-] the next year."
The words were long and the voice was not loud, but what was said was enough to make Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang tremble again.
Although it has changed from a million to ten thousand, fifty thousand, one hundred thousand.
But this gave them a greater impact.
Because of this greater credibility.
"Your Highness is serious!"
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help asking again.
"Of course it is true. Within this year, we must penetrate Chang'an to Luoyang, and within 20 years we must penetrate the entire Tang Dynasty. This is what this king said to his father and has been confirmed by his father."
"Do you think my king's words don't count, or my father's words don't count?"
Speak confidently, with words of affirmation.
And listening to this words, the eyes of both of them couldn't help but have a light.
Both of them who have built roads once know how much manpower and material resources are needed to build a road that connects the world.
And Li Shimin agreed, so it means that this matter should be true.
And this undoubtedly made their hearts sink completely.
Foreman, they don't care much anymore.
What makes them care is how many people they can command.
It will not be the same as before, 1 people have become 2000 people.
At this moment, Li Ming's answer completely resolved their doubts.
To build so many roads requires a huge amount of manpower, even if it doesn't need millions, it needs at least hundreds of thousands.
With such a large population, it is unimaginable what they can learn from their commanders.
It can also feed them to lay a good foundation for leading troops in the future.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"We're going to be gutted!"
After speaking, the two bowed towards Li Ming.
"It doesn't have to be!"
"You two work with all your heart, and His Majesty must also see it. Now that the Turks are not destroyed, Baiyue is at peace, and the world has a lot to do. Now it is just a lack of experience. When the experience is replenished, there must be a place for the two generals to use their skills. "
Li Ming helped him lightly, but spoke seriously.
Hearing such words, the two couldn't help being excited.
Looking at the reactions of the two, the result is already known.
Not surprisingly, for a long time to come, Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang will no longer have any complaints.
It has to be said that drawing big cakes is the best way to win people's hearts in any era, and it is not one of them.
During the conversation, the roast duck was served at this moment.
The aroma became stronger and stronger.
The two swallowed involuntarily.
"This is my king's secret roast duck, you two have a taste!"
Li Ming smiled.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
The two quickly thanked each other.
As two burly men, their food intake was astonishing, especially the first time they ate such a delicious roast duck, four roast ducks were not enough.
There was no other way, Li Ming could only ask the back chef to get two more.
It wasn't until they ate six of them that they left the Palace of Wei with some satisfaction.
Li Ming personally delivered them to the gate of the palace, and presented two roast ducks as gifts.
At this moment, Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang were completely convinced.
Chapter 74 This Datang is a bit strange
The morning sun shines as always.
There is not much difference from the past.
It's just that at this moment, it's already the first day of June, and it's another day of lunar eclipse.
Early in the morning, Li Ming was going to sleep in, but he was woken up by the maid.
"What, this king wants to participate in the Shuo Wang Dynasty?"
Li Ming was a little confused and didn't react for a while.
"Yes, Your Highness, hurry up and wash up, you will be punished for being late."
The maid responded quickly.
And Li Ming was in this kind of bewilderment, dressed and washed by the maids.
In the end, he was pushed down to the entrance of the Tai Chi Hall in a daze, and he was a little relieved.
"I'm just an idle prince, this kind of early court is also my turn."
With a speechless.
Li Ming looked at the sky where the sun had not yet risen, feeling a little helpless.
But there is no way, no one dares to disobey the order of the emperor Lao Tzu.
And not long after he arrived, Wang De's voice sounded.
Then hundreds of officials entered the court one by one.
As the prince, his position is considered to be relatively front.
But not the most advanced.
Because in front of him are Prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Li Tai, and Jin Wang Li Zhi, and then he is.
Looking at him, Li Chengqian couldn't help but snorted coldly.
Li Tai nodded slightly.
Li Zhi had a smile on his face.
"Ninth brother, do you know what's going on?"
While the figure was walking, Li Ming carefully pulled Li Zhi, and asked with doubts.
"I'm not sure, but it shouldn't be a big deal, maybe I want you to see it, Brother Fourteen."
Li Zhi replied softly.
And in the conversation between the two.
Everyone stepped into the hall one after another.
Until all the civil and military officials came in, Li Ming and Li Zhi quickly shut their mouths.
And Li Shimin also sat on the dragon chair at this moment.
With the shouts of the officials, the Shuowang Dynasty began.
What follows is undoubtedly boring.
At least that's the case for the prince.
Boring performances, boring cutscenes.
That's right, it's just a cutscene. Most of the incidents have been solved by the Zhongshu Province, and the door has been solved, or a plan has been proposed, and the court meeting is just a cutscene.
Li Ming was drowsy after listening.
In other words, he has half-closed his eyes.
Anyway, nothing to do with him.
