I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shen never showed up. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he didn't dare. He was afraid that he would reveal himself.

He was afraid that he would be seen through by big customers.

So I have been living at home, with my wife and children on the bed. In addition to reading storytelling every day, I play mahjong and go fishing.

Or it could be to train the arithmetic talents recruited by Wang Xuance so that they can learn to check accounts and use Arabic numerals.

Of course, as a military commander, Li Shen still has to face ups and downs every day.

This is also one of his five-year plans.

After ten days like this, Wang Xuance and Wang Hongfu came to the palace.

"I have met the prince." The two of them saluted.

"Well, if you have anything to say, please tell me immediately. I have urgent matters over there."

Li Shen waved his hand and asked.

The two of them were helpless. The urgent matter that King Ji mentioned had nothing to do except having fun.

"Prince Qi, the plan for Silla and Baekje has begun, and the translators recruited have also set off.

Chen also recruited many people locally.

Also, the negotiations with their nobles have ended. Many nobles in Baekje have begun planting soybeans.

This also inspired local people to plant together, but we spent a lot of money in advance.

It took four more layers than expected. "Wang Xuance reported first.

"Well, spending more money is nothing, as long as the plan succeeds." Li Shen nodded with satisfaction.

"My lord, there is a second thing. The imperial court's intention to restrict the cabinet shop has spread to every state and county in the Tang Dynasty.

The response was great. Most of the prefectures, county governors, magistrates, and garrison generals submitted memorials, saying that the imperial court should not interfere in private affairs.

They also said that doing so would affect the balance among the people, and they also used public-private partnerships, which might be used as an excuse to advise the court not to do so.

At present, everyone in the Chaotang holds their own opinions and has not reached a conclusion yet. His Majesty does not care about it, and the Crown Prince's attitude is to let them debate and not want to join in. "

Wang Xuance talked about the cabinet shop again.

Li Shen had already thought of this. The aristocratic family could conquer the people and use the court to stop the development of the people.

But the aristocratic family cannot stop these small interest groups. If these small interest groups really unite, the aristocratic family cannot stop them.

"Very good. Pay attention to the development of the situation. We can also fan the flames in the middle at critical moments."

"It's your lord, and one last thing. Our propaganda against alchemists has received dissatisfaction from many Taoist temples.

There are also many people talking among the people. They think that we are slandering everyone in the Taoist sect. "

After Wang Xuance finished speaking, Li Shen frowned. Who is making assumptions about this?

I just said that the alchemist who made alchemy could not refine the elixir of life, and he didn't say anything else.

"Publish the article in the newspaper again. We only say that the elixir of life is a lie, and we do not deny the Taoism.

Just like Taishi Ling Li Chunfeng, isn't he a Taoist priest?

And Divine Doctor Sun is also a Taoist priest.

They are especially proficient in astronomy, geography, calendar, mathematics, medicine, etc. Everyone can hang a pot to help the world.

But if the rice is kept for a long time, some insects will inevitably grow. "

Taoism is the state religion, and Li Shen does not want to cause conflicts and cultural fault lines.

"Yes, I will take care of it later." Wang Xuance accepted the order.

"Your Majesty understands Taoism so well, could it be that your Majesty also practices Taoism?" Wang Hongfu couldn't help but curiously asked after seeing Li Shen's attitude towards Taoism.

He had the impression that the medieval king was not a believer.

“Of course, I have cultivated my body and mind and learned a lot from Divine Doctor Sun.

However, although I believe in religion, I do not believe in Taoism.

The religion that I believe in is all-encompassing, embracing all rivers, including Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, and even those that are helpful to this religion,

This religion can accept any teachings, such as Tibetan Buddhism and various teachings from small southern countries.

We welcome everyone who comes to visit the Eternal Life Sky in the North and so on. "

Li Shen stood up and tried to look particularly pious and celestial.

Looking at King Ji's appearance, both of them were a little curious as to what kind of religion King Ji was talking about.

It was unexpected that Prince Ji could be so pious and able to embrace all rivers and accept the integration of many parties.

"May I ask what sect the prince believes in? Can you recommend something to me?" Wang Hongfu asked sincerely.

The sect that King Ji can join must not be an ordinary sect.

"There is absolutely no problem with the introduction. What I believe in is the almighty money religion. I am the leader of this generation.

The king has decided to appoint you two as Dharma protectors, responsible for spreading the teachings and recruiting believers. "

Li Shen has a solemn expression and a solemn voice like a magic stick.

"..." The two of them were dumbfounded. What the hell is the Money Sect? When they heard Li Shen say that he was the leader of the cult, they immediately knew that King Ji was ill again.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ji, I have important things to do, so I will take my leave now." Wang Xuance stood up and saluted.

When King Ji is sick, the best way is to avoid it, otherwise it will be easy to get infected.

Wang Hongfu was extremely confused. He hadn't reported the matter yet. Wouldn't it be a good idea to run away too?

"Okay, sit down. You two are so boring. How can you get along with your colleagues in an officialdom?"

Li Shen asked Wang Xuance to sit down and complained, saying that he would not cater to his superiors at all.

Wang Xuance is indeed complaining in his heart, there is no mentally abnormal person like you in the officialdom.

"Old Wang, it's your turn."

"It's your lord. In the past half month, we have sold the Qibao Dan materials four times and earned a total of two million and one hundred and twenty thousand.

We have been purchasing the medicinal materials for the Nine-turn Life-Sustaining Pill. There are fifty-three common medicinal materials, and we have also received three precious medicinal materials.

Ginseng, tiger bone, and a relatively old Ganoderma lucidum.

I think it’s almost done. I don’t recommend selling the Qibaodan materials anymore, otherwise you will make too much money. If the big customer gets angry, you may suffer, my lord. "

Wang Hongfu reported what happened these days.

A set of materials is given at one time, and then secretly taken back and sold again, and the cycle starts over and over again.

Li Shen also felt that it was almost enough. If it was too much, his body might not be able to bear it.

"Well, don't sell the Qibao Pill. As for the materials for the Nine-Revolution Life-Sustaining Pill, we can sell them twice as much as the ordinary materials we purchased, or three to five times.

As for those precious materials, we can pass them off as good ones and sell them directly to the Mapo in Tianzhu.

The key point is that the packaging must be high-end, so that ordinary people can’t tell, as long as the mapo plays the role well.

The price needs to be high, but if it is too low, it will not seem so real. "

Li Shen sometimes felt that being an emperor was really pitiful. People below him would be whatever they said. The same thing was sold to the people for one price and to the palace for another price.

Just like the clothes Li Shimin wore, if they were among the people, they would only cost a few hundred pieces, and if they were better, they would only cost a thousand pieces.

But it's different when it comes to Li Shimin's clothes. They cost at least thousands, or even ten thousand, especially the dragon robe.

Hundreds of embroiderers embroidered stitch by stitch without making any mistakes. They had to think for a long time whether it was right before placing the stitches.

This does not include painters and other craftsmen.
