Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 694;

Chapter 640;
Li Jing, the god of war, stood among the generals and talked eloquently, with neither loud nor soft voice, and the expression on his face was calm;

"In terms of style alone, this concrete floor is of course inferior to the inner courtyard of the imperial city, but! In terms of walking convenience, it is unmatched in the world!

Needless to say, marching and rushing to mobilize the army, fools know the power of it. Since ancient times, soldiers are expensive and fast, and military aircraft are hard to find. Once a good opportunity appears on the battlefield, it will be fleeting. If there are eight such The official road leads to all corners of the country, so His Majesty's country will have an extra solid rock!

For the consideration of His Majesty's country, no matter where things happen in the future, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court can be quickly mobilized, and then take their positions as quickly as possible. Speaking of it, it is full of benefits!

so!A certain family agrees with the construction of another cement road next to the existing official road!And there is no objection!

Whether it takes ten years or 30 years to complete it, it is a merit of thousands of years, and nothing else is too long-winded, just talking about the completion of these eight official roads, your majesty's great achievements can be added to the rich ink! "

The civil and military sides in the hall had just finished their verbal sparring and entered into a brief silence. Li Jing's analysis made everyone nod after hearing it. From a general perspective, of course it was a good thing. No one is a fool, and they can tell the difference anyway.

Li Shiji in the group of generals did not hesitate, and immediately came to support after Li Jing finished speaking;
"That's right! A certain family also agrees with Li Shilang's analysis. Except for the road to exit the customs built by the Qin Dynasty, all the official roads in the world are full of bumps and bumps, and there are many twists and turns.

There are many places that can be passed within [-] miles, but because of the turning of the official road, it takes an extra [-] miles, and some places can even go a hundred miles away!Really amazing!

These are all the truth. Everyone knows the truth and falsehood of what a certain family says, and it’s not that you old brothers are taboo to say nothing, so you can treat it as nothing!

so!It is very important to build a suitable flat road. To put it alarmist, many difficult battles have eight concrete roads, and the situation can be turned around immediately. There is no need for many people to die, and everyone can guess the outcome.

Let’s not talk about the difficulty of the common people walking today. Let’s just say that every time the army is mobilized, the food delivery team will be trapped at every turn. Once the weather is not good and it rains heavily, the food and grass team will be trapped on the muddy road. It is difficult to move an inch, and the boys on the battlefield can only use the old method, one meal a day, or even one meal every two days, endure hunger and wait for life-saving food and grass!
Brothers, please think back to why since ancient times, it is necessary to have a ration of [-] shi, but it is always necessary to transport [-] shi or more?why?
Investigate the root cause, but the food delivery team is also huge, and the people and children who deliver the food also need to eat. To put it bluntly, the reason why the food and fodder needed for war is shocking to the world is that most of the food is consumed. It is on the road, so there is no need to say more about the merits and demerits of building cement roads!It has its own public opinion, and everything is self-evident! "

The emperor sat motionless and listened to Li Jing and Li Shiji's words, especially the sentence that as long as these eight roads are repaired, it will be a great achievement in itself. After hearing this, Li Shimin strengthened his determination!
Hearing that Li Shiji was so stupid that he was so stupid, all kinds of astonishing sums were consumed every time he fought, all because of the lack of good roads, Li Shimin gritted his teeth!

He himself is a master of the art of war, the emperor knows better than anyone else whether Li Shiji's remarks that grasp the pain point make sense, so!Li Shimin made up his mind in his heart, this time...he must not give up halfway!You must grit your teeth and implement Li Dalang's schemes!

In fact, Li Shimin was not very happy about the entanglement of these ministers. Last year, he made a few simple jokes with everyone about this matter. At that time, some people laughed and said that they should rush to build roads. People keep their mouths shut and don't come to support!Does this make Li Shimin happy?
But the emperor is the emperor's idea, the military general is the military general's idea, and the civil servants have different considerations, so after the two military gods have expressed their opinions, needles can be heard in the hall of Nuo Da, and what they say is the eternal truth. refute?

When everyone looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was sitting on the upper hand, they basically understood what the Emperor meant!
It is clear!The words of the two military gods greatly touched His Majesty the Emperor's heart, otherwise His Majesty would not be lazy and lean on the back of the Grand Master's chair.

Although the emperor's face is as usual, who is not the old fried dough stick sitting here?His eyes are not blind, so of course he knows everything clearly.

Many people were holding back their words and dared not speak out easily, and no one wanted to be that annoying broom star just because of the emperor's interest!
Seeing the quiet scene, Li Shimin immediately smiled;

"My dear friends, don't get entangled. Tonight, we will open the door to talk about the road construction. Anyone who speaks stops here, and when he goes out, he will pretend that nothing happened. The censor is not allowed to pursue verbal responsibilities. Let's start now." Put away the paperwork and no longer record it, so that the lovers can speak freely!"

"According to the order!"

As Li Shimin's voice fell to the ground, two clerks in the corners on both sides of the hall closed the book, stood up and agreed, and then exited the hall.

When the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs saw this, he rushed to speak immediately, and an old civil official stood in the middle of the hall to salute before the two clerks left the hall;

"Report to Your Majesty, I dare not second my opinion."

"Oh? I haven't eaten too much, and I'm very sober, so Ai Qing doesn't have to worry about anything else."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness. There are many reasons why I dare not second this matter. Let's take the matter of who will repair it.

Those who have the ability to build a great road, except for those aristocratic families with five surnames and Qiwang, are rich and powerful families who have accumulated thousands of years, and they have to go bankrupt to do it. I wonder if you think so, Your Majesty? "

Li Shimin sat on his hands and nodded calmly;
"Of course!"

"Come on!"

"The slave is here, Your Majesty, please give orders."

"Go to the outer courtyard and tell Li Dalang to come in, and ask him to explain his troublesome things in detail."

"Here!"

After the emperor gave his orders, he closed his eyes, and the civil and military ministers took the opportunity to discuss again. When Li Yu came in with Jiu Jiner, he saw the same situation as the vegetable market in the hall, and couldn't help showing a surprised expression!

"I pay my respects to Your Majesty! I respectfully invite Sheng An."

"Exemption."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"My son greets all uncles, and all uncles are blessed and safe."

"Humph!"

"You actually instigated your Majesty to come down and ask the people to collect the road tax money, what an idiot!"

"That's right, where did you put your majesty's name?"

"If the common people hear that they have to pay taxes when they walk, how can they talk about His Majesty!"

"Hey...Da Lang, you actually made last year's joke really come true?"

"Wanfu Jinan? Us old guys are pushed back and forth by you, aren't we still a shit!"

"Ah? So it was about building roads, hee hee! Uncles, don't be angry, why can't you do such a lucrative business? Please teach me, uncles."

Seeing Li Yu's playful smile, Niu Jinda kicked Li Yu's ass, of course, without any effort at all.

"You bastard, the old man has offended many people tonight, and kicking you to death won't hurt you."

"Oh! Uncle Niu, you kicked my son's bones..."

The literati old man who spoke before came over and pointed at Li Yu's nose;
"Don't come here to complain about this old man. When you go to this old man's house in private, your aunt will even arrange delicious food and wine for you. However, this important matter in the court, this old man never dares to care about personal affairs. Your wicked wisdom is beyond many people , should be able to understand?"

"Returning to uncle's words, I can understand, but I can't figure it out, such a thing that will last forever, and it doesn't cost the court money, why can't it be done?"

"Why? The old man will tell you why. First, who should repair this road?
Your Majesty wants to build eight concrete official roads in all directions from Chang'an City as the center. The old man came to ask you, which door should be built?

Which family repairs a situation that is not bankrupt?Do you really think that all the portals in the world are fools?Let your three-inch tongue force the power of the clan in regardless? "

"Oh uncle, the problem you mentioned is not a problem at all. I, the Li family in Longxi, can take care of everything if I go to the third house, and I am willing to go bankrupt to support His Majesty's great cause!"

"You...you are confused, my son, this...supporting His Majesty is of course the best thing to be loyal to the emperor, but food and clothing also have to measure the property, this is the truth taught by Your Majesty to us, I am not talking nonsense Badao, if you don’t believe me, ask His Majesty.”

The civil servant old man is also very partial to Li Yu. The family members have a close relationship with this rascal, and Li Yu is really likable. I can't express what I want to go, and I am sweating profusely!
Seeing the extremely embarrassed veteran, Li Shimin quickly stood up to make a rescue;
"Yes. I do often say this sentence to remind my courtiers that what the old Shangshu said is true."

"Oh, I know Your Majesty. Uncle An'an knows how powerful he is, but he doesn't want to be left behind when it comes to making money. If the business is robbed by someone else, he will cry bitterly."

"You, you... oh... uncle can't say anything about you, oh..."

Seeing that his colleagues were choked up and had nothing to say, a few civil servants immediately stood up;
"Li Da, don't say who will build the road, just say that your Li family in Longxi is loyal to the king and is willing to spend his entire family to build the road. The old man asks you, how do you explain this matter of collecting road taxes to the people of the world?"

"Exactly! What Wang Shilang said is justified. Since His Majesty took over the Great Reign, he has issued summons three times in the past three years. They are all easy strategies to reduce the taxes of the people. They have already won the love of the people all over the world. Now who doesn't say that Your Majesty is the Ming Lord? You ask His Majesty to collect road tax, how is that decent? Have you considered His Majesty's reputation?"

"Of course, what the two elder brothers said is from the bottom of my heart. The courtiers cherish fame like life, let alone the emperor with a body of gold? Dalang, your attention this time is really not good!"

Li Yu kept nodding, and then acted like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water;
"What the uncles said are all upright truths, I can understand, but! I also have my own insights, please give me a chance to explain, uncles, I wonder if it's okay?"

"Hmph! You still want to explain? You are a bad idea!"

"Forget it, forget it, the dying person can still give a chance to speak, ask him to say a few more words, and see if he can turn bad things into good things?"

"Well, since everyone has told you to speak up, let's talk about the long and short."

"Thank you uncles for your generosity."

Li Yu saluted in a feigned manner, then deliberately coughed a few times before speaking while taking advantage of the alcohol;
"Since ancient times, the common people have been ignorant and ignorant, so they need to be ruled by the king and guided by the court. If they stop because of gossip, it is not the act of great wisdom! The words I don't know can be said by my ancestors What is their law?"

Li Yu triumphantly made an impeccable opening remark, and then looked around at the civil and military officials in the hall. Li Shimin was silent on the face, but he was already cursing in his heart;

"This bastard, showing off his knowledge in front of his elders is really not a man. General Niu really has nothing bad to say about him."

A large group of old men snorted coldly, but did not make a sound to refute. With this kind of pediatric knowledge, any uncle who stood up would be able to fight until dawn, and he could even rip Li Yu into pieces. But if you are a junior, if you do It's too much, really inappropriate.

Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin did something sensible, and he didn't wait for the emperor to reprimand Li Yu.
"You little bastard, talk to me well, don't be rude to the ministers."

"Oh, I know Third Uncle."

Li Yu has never had the slightest temper when it comes to Datang No. [-] Hob Knife Meat. This person's unreasonable and nonsensical obsession with No. [-] in the world, what are you talking about?
"I want to report to Your Majesty, and to reply to the words of your uncles. What I think is that collecting road tax will definitely be unacceptable to the people. It is okay to give them tax relief. Adding a large amount of money can make Your Majesty a fool. I understand this, and it is not just blindly. The idiot has no scruples!"

"Humph!"

"You just understand."

"Your Majesty wants to be a wise king through the ages. How can you be so embarrassing?"

"That's right, the old Shangshu is right."

"However, there is a plan to solve this problem. For example, let's not mention the road tax or the matter of telling the people to walk. Isn't this the end? Naturally, the people will not speak ill of His Majesty. of."

"Do not say?"

"I said Li Dalang, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

"Yeah, if you don't tell the people, if the people don't leave, where will the road builders get their money back?"

"This is simply confusing. The old man is confused. Do colleagues know how deep it is?"

"Brother, don't worry, let's not talk for now, just listen to Li Dalang's slick tongue to explain."
