The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 194 Li Shimin's Astuteness

Chapter 194 Li Shimin's Astuteness
From Li Shimin's tone, one can feel his joy today.

After all, he earned another [-] yuan to fund the national treasury to relieve the victims, although it could not replace the shares of Cheng Fang and his wife.

But he still felt at ease.

"Wei Zheng, why did you come to find me today?"

Then Wei Zheng said: "Your Majesty, the sixth prince's salt is very popular! And the price is only one-fifth of the market price! Just one day's income is nearly 10 taels!"

As soon as his words came out, Li Shimin was shocked.

Earn nearly 10 taels a day?
What kind of fairy operation is that?

And it's one-fifth of the market price, so how much should it be sold for?

It can be seen that the market demand is very strong.

My own 6 taels is really pediatrics!

"This kid, I really didn't expect it! He is so capable! I underestimated him!"

Li Shimin muttered.

"Your Majesty, there are more!"

"Huh? What else?"

Li Shimin was puzzled, what else.Did something else happen?
"His rapid rise has greatly influenced the family, and the family's salt business in Chang'an has stagnated! The surrounding areas have also become extremely miserable! A loss of nearly one million taels a day!"

That's the point.

One made nearly ten, and the other lost nearly a hundred.

That is also because of the unequal price.

The big aristocratic families are huge, consuming costs every day.

Their costs are extremely high, outrageously high, but the profits are even more terrifying.

"Hahaha! Unexpectedly, in just one day, the aristocratic family will know the pain. The charm of this salt is indeed very high! That kid did a very good job this time!"

Li Shimin was a relatively formal affirmation of Li Yin.

When he said this, he had another idea in his mind.

"Yes, the Sixth Prince has indeed contributed a lot of tax revenue to the imperial court this time. The tax revenue for this month alone is huge!"

It is impossible to see exactly how much money Li Yin earned, but the approximate amount can be determined from the amount of taxes.

"Oh? Do you have specific figures?"

Li Shimin asked curiously.

"The minister obtained this list from the Ministry of Household Affairs, please read it through Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin took a look.

The more I look at it, the more surprised I am.

A large amount of money is densely written on it.

"The salt contributed so much tax just yesterday, it really is a good business!"

Li Shimin muttered.

"Yes! And it also provides a large number of jobs for the people. There are thousands of people in the transportation alone! These people still earn a lot of money! The people are happy, some people have not seen money all year round!"

The latter is the key. Li Yin's business has grown and people have jobs, which is good for Datang's economy.

It would be a terrible thing if people had nothing to do.

It will affect social stability and reduce people's sense of happiness.

There may even be out-migration.

Therefore, Li Yin's career has indeed had an impact on the stability of Datang!

"Wei Zheng, if we say that we increase the price of mineral salt by five times, will the treasury be filled even more?"

Li Shimin said very shamelessly.

"Your Majesty, no, that will only cause public anger!"

"Oh? Why?"

"If the price of mineral salt increases, then the price of finished salt will only go up. The Sixth Prince's salt can no longer be sold for a tael of silver. This is a bad thing for the people, and a good thing for the aristocratic family. "

"Nonsense, the price of the aristocratic family is five times that of his, and they didn't see the people dissatisfied when they sold it at that time! Li Yin only needs to double the price, and he can make a lot of money! It can also generate a lot of taxes for Datang. Now Da Tang There are too many places where Tang needs to spend money. If this is done, then the treasury will further generate a large amount of taxes, and we will be able to sell high-priced mineral salt!"

Li Shimin is really smart.

For their own sake, completely disregarding the public.

For some things, once the price is set, it is basically difficult to increase it.

At the same time, he was also persecuting Li Yin and containing him.

Let Li Yin be passive and feed himself!

Maybe not if he hadn't seen that list.

But now it's different.

He is like someone caught between Li Yin and the family,
There is no sense of security.

Wei Zheng didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking, and he strongly opposed it at this time.

"Your Majesty, absolutely not! In that case, it will only make the sixth prince passive! No!"

"That Nizi is so smart, it's a trivial matter, how can it be rare for him? Let's do it!"

Li Shimin asked back.

The fact is that Li Yin is too strong, and fortunately, he only deals with business, if it is politics.

Li Shimin might not let him go.

Li Yin said, what's so good about the emperor?
As a rich man, he can have three wives and four concubines. If he develops well and is able to protect himself, he can build a paradise and live a happy life. At that time, Li Shimin may ask for alms from himself.

"But Your Majesty! This..."

"It's just according to what I want, and I left him half of the profit, what else does he want? If he wants to make money, he just raises the price! No need to say anything!"

Li Shimin didn't listen at all.

Wei Zheng could only sigh.

"That minister will go and talk to him about it!"

He was a little embarrassed at this point.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to talk to Li Shimin about this.

His original intention was to please Li Shimin and let him see that Li Yin had beaten the family to a great loss.Let Li Shimin affirm Li Yin, this is for Li Yin's good!

But unexpectedly, Li Shimin wanted to trick Li Yin.

Now a good thing is turned into a bad thing.

At this moment, he wished that Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang were both there.

With them here, Li Shimin will definitely be stopped.

But now it doesn't work.

Li Shimin was very happy.

"Okay, let's go down and deal with it, this matter must be handled properly! After finishing, I will reward you a lot!"

Wei Zheng wanted to say, I would rather not have this kind of reward.

But his mouth said: "Yes! Your Majesty, that minister will leave!"

Li Shimin waved his hand.

In a good mood.

Can he be in a bad mood?
Next, his treasury will have a large tax revenue, as well as the income from mineral salt, which will directly increase by five times.

If Li Yin wants to make money, he has to pay more
It depends on whether Li Yin will follow him.

But he didn't know how the current Li Yin could do what he wanted.

Li Yin did this for the purpose of beating the family, money?He can earn whatever he wants.As long as he wants, there is no money that he can't handle!

It has no effect on Li Shimin's calculations at all!
On the contrary, all of this is under Li Yin's control.

After all, some businesses cannot be done by oneself.

Well done, make some people hate.

If you don't do well, others will scold you.

This kind of money is not earnable.

Then Wei Zheng went to Shengtang Group.

But at this moment in the group, Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling were sitting in a daze, looking at Li Yin, hesitating to speak.

What are these two people trying to do?
