Li Shimin

From the fourth rank, Dali, Honglu, and Sinongqing are from the fourth rank. I did not expect that His Majesty would attach so much importance to the road construction department and the housing construction department that have not yet been established.

"Your Majesty, can the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department really involve people from aristocratic families?"

At this time, Cheng Zhijie, who was on the side, said with a flattering smile.

"Ok?"

Li Shimin was stunned, "Naturally, those aristocratic families will be allowed to join us!"

"Your Majesty, I don't know if the humble minister can also take out some of his wealth and participate in it?"

Cheng Zhijie said slowly.

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others at the side couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and they quickly looked at Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, Weichen and others also have this intention!"

Although they are the Dukes of the state, they are all from aristocratic families. If they pool their family property together, they can also pool hundreds of thousands of money.

What's more, there are salary money and part money for glass and sofa workshops every year.

Li Shimin, on the other hand, was astonished. After a long while, he asked in some surprise: "You also want to participate in the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department?"

"Return to Your Majesty, this kind of business that is sure to make money without losing money, the ministers naturally want to participate!"

Cheng Zhijie, Li Xiaogong and others were full of anticipation.

"This matter, I agree!"

Li Shimin nodded slowly, "However, several people have participated. All the princes and ministers of the fourth rank and above in the court can participate as long as they can spend more than [-] guan. Otherwise, according to the rules of those aristocratic families Family property, you guys have no point in participating!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Cheng Zhijie, Li Xiaogong and others were full of gratitude.

"Xiao Gong, I wonder if you have any opinion on what Xuan Ba ​​said about Li Baoding?"

Afterwards, Li Shimin looked at Li Xiaogong again.

In Li Shimin's eyes, Li Baoding's biological father, Li Qiong, King of Xiping, was just a bastard, and his opinions were totally unnecessary.

However, Li Xiaogong is Zong Zhengqing and Li Baoding's uncle, so Li Shimin needs to take care of him, Li Xiaogong's opinion.

"Return to Your Majesty, this son of Baoding was originally adopted by King Jin because of the early death of King Jin. Now, King Jin has been resurrected, and the age difference between him and Baoding is still so small. Let this son of Baoding be the heir of King Jin , something is indeed wrong!"

Li Xiaogong quickly replied.

"So, according to Xuan Ba's will!"

After listening, Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Li Xiaogong bowed his hands in salute.

In this matter, no matter how you say it, Li Baoding has made a lot of money.

Not only did he get the title of county king in vain, but he also recognized a wife who was the most unprovoked in the Tang Dynasty!

……

Two days later.

Following the morning court, Li Shimin announced to the courtiers the matter of the Road Construction Division and the Housing Construction Division.

His Majesty is willing to share the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department with the world.

Moreover, every official of the department is a fourth-rank official.

As soon as these words came out, all the officials were shocked, no less than a bolt from the blue.

After the court, all the ministers surrounded Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others.

As for the low-level officials of those aristocratic factions, they all walked in a hurry.

When I got home, I started writing letters.

The letter contained not only the regulations of the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department, but also His Royal Highness Jin Wang's vow to investigate the death of the Japanese in Wannian County!

Within half an hour, hundreds of messengers sprang out from various gates of Chang'an City, riding horse asses, and ran away in all directions.

noon.

Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo hurried over.

"I will meet the Supreme Emperor, the Great King, His Highness the Crown Prince, King Huaiwei, and all the gentlemen!"

As soon as they entered the house, the two saluted.

No way, who made this small courtyard less than an acre inhabited every day by a Supreme Emperor, a Prince of the Eastern Palace, a Prince, a County King, and the eldest sons of the Dukes and Kings.

Everyone here, when Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo saw each other, had to bow their heads in salute.

"You come here, what's the matter?"

Li Xuan asked curiously.

"Back to Your Majesty, the two of us came here for the matter of Lu Jiansi and Fang Jiansi!"

Cui Hongmo said quickly.

"Road Construction Department and Housing Construction Department?"

On the side, Li Yuan asked with some doubts.

"Old man, the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department are the official offices specially opened by His Majesty to build houses and roads with cement for all states and counties in the Tang Dynasty. In order to build cement houses and cement roads for all states and counties as soon as possible For roads, all aristocratic families or forces are allowed to invest money in the road construction department and the housing construction department, and the subsequent income will be based on their respective shares..."

Li Xuan explained it to Li Yuan in detail.

"Isn't this the same as ruling the world with all the aristocratic families?"

Suddenly, Li Yuan was shocked.

"It can also be said to rule the world together!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and said: "However, the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department are still controlled by the imperial court. They are the families that invested money and can only enjoy the last share of the money. It can also be said that the imperial court and them jointly make a sum Business!"

"However, a family is a family after all, what if the Lu Jiansi and the Housing Jiansi get mixed up..."

After listening, Li Yuan couldn't help frowning slightly.

"It's okay, at least [-]% of the money in the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department should be the money of the family. If the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department are really messed up by the family, and the Tang Dynasty has strong troops and strong generals, His Majesty can deal with it directly.

In the end, it will be lost in business as a family! "

Li Xuan looked indifferent!

……

"So, for Datang, this matter is a sure-fire business!"

After listening, Li Yuan nodded slowly in satisfaction.

But Cui Hongmo and Zheng Mingde, who were standing by the side, were both happy and depressed after listening to them thoroughly.

"I don't know if you two have any doubts about Road Construction Department and Housing Construction Department?"

After finishing Li Yuan, Li Xuan turned his head, looked at Cui Hongmo and Zheng Mingde, and asked slowly.

"Back to your Majesty, the villain wants to know, can this Lu Jiansi and Fang Jiansi go on for a long time?" Cui Hongmo asked.

"You should ask His Majesty and the court ministers about this matter."

Li Xuan curled his lips, but he thought that Cui Hongmo would soon become his eldest brother-in-law because he had already given the dowry to the daughter of the Cui family. Your Majesty should not break his promise to the world!"

"Of course, it would be hard to say if Tang Guozuo came to an end, but this will happen hundreds of years and thousands of years later, and you and other aristocratic families don't have to worry so much!"

On the side, Zheng Mingde was full of envy.

This is the benefit of having an unmarried older sister in the family.

In the past, when did His Royal Highness Prince Jin speak to the two of them in such a low voice?

"May I ask your Majesty, can you take the lead in building cement roads for Qingzhou?"

Cui Hongmo continued to ask.

After staying with King Jin for such a period of time, he finally understood that His Royal Highness Jin Wang is indifferent, and all his thoughts are placed in this Li Family Manor. If he wants any benefit, as long as it is not out of line, he has to be the first to ask for it.

Otherwise, His Royal Highness King Jin would never have imagined it.

Zheng Mingde also understands this truth.

Therefore, after Cui Hongmo finished speaking, his face was full of resentment.

Cui Jiazi really had a thick face and a dark heart, and he was the first to contact His Royal Highness King Jin anyway, so why did this guy seize the opportunity everywhere after he saw the king.

"Build roads for Qingzhou first?"

Li Xuan was taken aback.

Immediately, a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes.

"Of course it is possible. After the road construction department and the housing construction department open the office, the king will talk to His Majesty about this matter!"

"Thank you king!"

Cui Hongmo looked overjoyed, as long as King Jin opened his mouth, the matter would surely be a success.

"However, from Chang'an City to Qingzhou, at least two thousand miles, this requires countless money. Can your Cui family spend so much money?"

Li Xuan asked with some concern.

"A road of two thousand miles?"

Hearing this, Cui Hongmo couldn't help being surprised.

Immediately, he shook his head again and again, "Your Majesty misunderstood what the villain meant. The villain just wanted to build a few concrete roads near Qingzhou! The road from Chang'an City to Qingzhou is so far away, even if the Cui family is hollowed out, it can't be taken." Pay so much money!"

"I see!"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Li Xuan's eyes. He was also planning to build a road from Chang'an City to Qingzhou, which could be regarded as a gift for his future Princess Jin.

"Your Majesty, you can actually build it to Xingyang first, and then build it from Xingyang to Qingzhou!"

On the side, Zheng Mingde quickly said, "From Chang'an City to Qingzhou, one must pass through Xingyang. My Zheng family in Xingyang can afford this money!"

"Ok?"

Li Xuan subconsciously looked at Zheng Mingde, with a flash of joy in his eyes, "It should be a thousand miles from Chang'an City to Xingyang. Your Zheng family has so much money?"

Zheng Mingde looked happy, and said slowly: "My lord, although the Zheng family is only a prefect, but the family is quite rich! Moreover, from Chang'an City to Xingyang, not only the Zheng family's family, but also the Lu family, The Yuan family, Yuwen family, Yu family, and the eldest grandson's family, as well as the Xie family of Chen Jun and the Yuan family of Chen Jun, must be very willing to pay this money!"

As he spoke, Zheng Mingde turned his head subconsciously, and glanced at Changsun Chong and Li Chengqian at the side.

The eldest grandson Wuji is from Luoyang, Henan!

"As for Luoyang near Xingyang, the aristocratic family is even more superfluous! Your Majesty, the Zheng family can raise enough money without paying much money to build a cement road from Chang'an City to Luoyang!"

After finishing speaking, Zheng Mingde glanced proudly at Cui Hongmo who was at the side.

Letting your Cui family travel so far, if you want to find a few decent families, you can't find a few.

"From Chang'an to Luoyang, Xingyang, and then to Qingzhou..."

Hearing this, Li Xuan thought about the route in his mind.

Gently nodded, this way is feasible.

"Your Majesty, do you agree?"

Zheng Mingde was overjoyed.

"My king agrees, but this matter depends on His Majesty's will in the end!"

Li Xuan glanced at Zheng Mingde speechlessly, and this king agreed, why are you so happy!

"As long as the king agrees, His Majesty will agree too!"

Zheng Mingde didn't care about Li Xuan's differential treatment.

As long as a concrete road is built for Xingyang first, the reputation of his Zheng family in the world will be directly improved.

On the side, Cui Hongmo couldn't help sighing softly.
