Li Shimin

Li Xuan urged speechlessly.

"This……"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian glanced at Li Shimin, and quickly looked at the map for a while.

Then, he raised his head blankly, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.

"Father, Uncle Wang, apart from the few counties around Chang'an City, Cheng Qian is not very familiar with other counties!"

"Tsk tsk, so you are very familiar with Lantian, Xinfeng, Weinan and other counties?"

Li Xuan asked.

Li Chengqian couldn't help being taken aback, and found the three counties that Li Xuan mentioned on the map, but his eyes were full of confusion.

"Your Majesty, take a look, how can a prince who is not familiar with the counties and towns of Tang Dynasty be a good heir?"

Li Xuan smiled lightly.

"Father, forgive me!"

Li Chengqian trembled, and quickly saluted Li Shimin.

Li Shimin sighed inwardly, and waved his hands at Li Chengqian. These things were not Li Chengqian's fault.

Moreover, after today's announcement, he felt that his education of Li Chengqian for so many years seemed to be very wrong.

"What good strategy does Xuan Ba ​​have?"

After pondering for a moment, Li Xuan said: "Your Majesty, the world is peaceful now, and there will be no more wars around the Tang Dynasty, so why not let Gao Ming replace Your Majesty and inspect the Tang Dynasty.

By the way, let him get acquainted with the prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty again, and let him choose which county he will be the county magistrate! "

"Let Gao Ming inspect the Great Tang on my behalf?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin was startled, and subconsciously raised his head to glance at Li Chengqian, and then looked again at Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others beside him.

"Your Majesty, this matter is also a good strategy!"

"Your Majesty, I agree!"

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and the others nodded their heads in response.

Li Shimin nodded slowly, then realized something, and said again: "It's just that Gao Ming just got married, and it's not appropriate for Gao Ming to inspect the Tang Dynasty on behalf of me?"

"Reporting to my father, my son is willing to replace my father and go to inspect the counties and states of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Chengqian hurriedly asked Ying to say.

Li Shimin was startled.

"Your Majesty, you can also let the Crown Princess accompany you, so that you can take care of Gao Ming all the way!" Li Xuan suggested.

"That's fine, I'm afraid that all the important officials in the court will object!"

Li Shimin was a little moved, and it would be a good move to let him, a prince who grew up in a deep palace and didn't hear about the hardships of the people, go around the Tang Dynasty to have a look around.

"The crown prince inspected the Tang Dynasty on behalf of His Majesty. This is an act of strengthening the country and the security of the country. It concerns the people of the world. Who dares to make a fuss among those courtiers?"

Li Xuan snorted coldly, and said again, "However, when Gao Ming visited the Great Tang, in order to avoid wasting the people and money, he still needed to go lightly. He only needed to bring a group of guards, and the rest of the guard of honor could stay in Chang'an!

Otherwise, officials from various states along the way would come to curry favor with Gao Ming, and it would be easy to lead Gao Ming down. "

"Can!"

Li Shimin replied.

Afterwards, after thinking for a while, he continued, "It's just that Gao Ming is away from home, and I really don't worry about his safety."

"This matter is simple. Your Majesty will send two generals, equipped with [-] muskets, [-] arrows and bombs, and only need [-] armored guards to follow. No one in the territory of the Great Tang will be able to hurt Gao Ming!"

Li Xuan said with a relaxed face.

"So, is Xuan Ba ​​willing to go?" Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan and said.

"I?"

Hearing this, Li Xuan was stunned.

"Exactly!"

Li Shimin nodded slightly, "Since Gao Ming lightly patrols the Tang Dynasty, the army cannot be mobilized. In this way, Xuanba brings five hundred personal guards, and Gao Ming brings five hundred guards in the East Palace, so I and the queen will not have any worries!"

Li Xuan: "..."

How come in the end, he seems to have put himself in it.

Chapter 797 The Magical Use of Banks

"If that's the case, then Ren Gui has to go!"

Li Xuan said.

He didn't want to guard Li Chengqian outside every day, he had to drag a top general to follow him.

"can!"

Li Shimin nodded, "Chongyi, Chu Si and these bastards can also follow you!"

Li Xuan: "..."

"That's it, that's it!"

Seeing that Li Xuan didn't speak, Li Shimin said directly.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will swear to the death to protect His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Xue Rengui, Cheng Chusi and other bastards hurriedly bowed their hands to Li Shimin with joy on their faces.

"Very good!"

Li Shimin's face was full of joy.

Afterwards, Li Shimin seemed to think of something, and looked at Li Xuan again.

"Xuan Ba, I have something else I want to discuss with you!"

"Is Your Majesty hungry?"

Li Xuan changed the subject and said, "I want to have a big meal now!"

Li Shimin was stunned.

"His Royal Highness King Jin is talking about eating hot pot?"

On the side, Cheng Zhijie and Yu Chigong were full of anticipation.

"eat hot pot!"

Li Xuandao: "All kinds of meat, ale is enough!"

"Thank you King Jin!"

Cheng Zhijie and Yu Chigong both had joyful expressions on their faces.

Hearing this, Li Shimin also felt a little hungry, and nodded slightly.

Li Xuan turned to the steward Li Chang who was at the side and said: "Steward, please go down and set up the pot. This king wants to eat hot pot with His Majesty and others!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang responded and walked out quickly.

But Li Xuan took advantage of the situation, leaned back on the sofa, his eyes were blank, he was actually tricked.

On the side, Li Shimin didn't ask this time, and you and others directly asked the question.

"Xuanba, I want to open the bank to the Tang Dynasty, what do you think?"

"Open it!"

Li Xuanman replied casually.

"Is Xuanba's words serious?" Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, it is not a bad thing for a bank to open to any city!"

Li Xuan said slowly: "As long as the bank is used properly, it can use the wealth of all people in the world to benefit all people in the world.

Of course, the premise is that His Majesty feels that he can control the bank.Otherwise, you can imagine Goguryeo's bank, as long as His Majesty sees that the people in Goguryeo are not pleasing to the eye, he orders the removal of the bank in Goguryeo.

In this way, from the nobles of Goguryeo to the common people of Goguryeo, they will be penniless immediately.

The entire Goguryeo became a hell on earth in an instant! "

Hearing this, Li Shimin's expression also became serious.

"So, then I will set up a bank in Tuyuhun and Tubo first, and try it out?"

"no, I'm fine!"

Li Xuan repeatedly waved his hands.

"Your Majesty, if Datang wants to develop, Qianzhuang will definitely be a huge help for Datang!"

"If your Majesty feels that you can't control the establishment of banks in all states and counties of Datang, then you can set up banks in those state capitals of Datang first!

In this way, when His Majesty feels that there are enough people in his hands to set up banks in all states and counties, then set them up.

As for setting up banks in Tuyuhun and Tubo, those places are places of bitter cold, so His Majesty can set up a few important cities at most, just to give those caravans some convenience! "

Li Shimin's expression brightened, and he hurriedly asked again: "Xuan Ba's meaning, is there a better way for the bank to apply it?"

"Yes, I have!"

Li Xuan lazily replied, "Your Majesty, do you know how much money will be in the hands of the people of the Tang Dynasty? If all the money in the hands of the people of the Tang Dynasty is added up, how much will there be?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help thinking of something, and his expression gradually became excited.

"Xuan Ba's meaning is..."

"Your Majesty, the bank can not only help those people save money, but also lend money to those people!"

Li Xuan said.

"Lending to the common people?" Li Shimin's expression became a little solemn again.

"Xuan Ba, I am the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, how could I do such an outrageous thing?"

"Without conscience?"

Li Xuan was stunned, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Your Majesty, lending money to the people who are in urgent need of money is to save their lives. How can you lose your conscience?"

"Xuanba, since ancient times, people have been known as interest rate lenders. I don't know how many people have exhausted their families and sold all their land. Even the last family members have to be sold into slavery. Such evil deeds have long been ordered to stop. Now How could I do such a wicked thing?"

Li Shimin said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, if you lend out Yiguan, you only need to repay the interest of [-] Wen a year?" Li Xuan said slowly.

"Usually money, two hundred cash per year?"

Immediately, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and the others couldn't help being astonished.

This interest is ten times cheaper than the official loan they know.

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded slowly.

"Xuanba, this method doesn't work!"

Li Shimin frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "Xuan Ba, although I don't know how those people in Goguryeo are willing to save money for the bank.

However, I am still very clear about the people and families of the Tang Dynasty.

Today, half of the people in Datang have no money left in their families.

Only those wealthy households and families have surplus money.

And these rich households and families, as long as they lend the surplus money in their hands to a large number of poor people, the interest earned in just one month is several times more than the money deposited in the bank in a year! "

Li Xuan smiled lightly, "Your Majesty, do you know how much money a rich family can borrow from the poor people? How much money can a family borrow from the people in a year?

Terrible, they borrow hundreds of poor people at most, and one family borrows money all the time?Twice?Up to ten strings!

This money is just a drop in the bucket compared to the money of their entire family! "
