After deciding on the plan, everyone started working on it the next day.

The first is Fang Yuan's side. He immediately held a meeting after arriving at the household department.

Although Tang Jian has submitted his resignation, it will take another month for him to go through the process, but he is still not in the household department.

Therefore, when Fang Yuan held a meeting, everyone including Cui Zhentang had to attend, and it was full of people.

"I checked the state treasury these days and found that there is still some money."

"Chang'an City is the center of the Tang Dynasty, but the road is thousands of miles behind Liaozhou."

"Everyone, I think it's time to build roads in Chang'an City. What do you think?"

Fang Yuan knocked on the table and said loudly.

Road construction is a means to secretly invite prominent families in the world to invest on the grounds that the Ministry of Household Affairs is the reason for investment.

As time goes by, money enters the imperial treasury from the hands of prominent families in the world, filling the imperial treasury.

"Master Fang, the roads in Chang'an City are quite good. There is no need to invest money in them, right?"

"Xiaoguan also feels the same way. There is not much money in the national treasury now, and we need to save and save again."

"Liaozhou is just a lower state. Even if the road to lower state is good, how good can it be? Mr. Fang is joking."

A group of Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development officials expressed their opinions.

Although there is no explicit objection, the meaning is already obvious.

And when these officials were talking, they all secretly glanced at Cui Zhentang.

It is conceivable that they are showing their loyalty to Cui Zhentang and following Cui Zhentang's lead.

"As an official of the Ministry of Household Affairs, I control Datang's finances. I believe that without investigation, I have no right to speak."

"The development of Liaozhou in recent years is the fastest among the 327 states in the entire Tang Dynasty. There is a huge difference between now and a few years ago."

Fang Yuan glanced at the officials who were talking and said calmly.

Not long ago, he returned to Liaozhou, otherwise he would not have dared to speak like this.

The changes in Liaozhou are definitely the biggest changes among the many states in the Tang Dynasty.

With Liaozhou as a case study, it is much easier for Fang Yuan to realize his idea.

"Even so, it's not time to build roads. There is no money in the national treasury now."

The officials looked at each other and said solemnly.

"If you don't build roads, the world will laugh at Chang'an as inferior to Liaozhou?"

"I will try my best to implement this matter. I will be responsible for any accidents. Do you have any other opinions?"

Fang Yuan sneered.

After the words fell, the officials discussed and whispered among themselves.

Many people looked at Cui Zhentang, who was sitting next to Fang Yuan, and saw that they had not received the instruction, so they did not object.

Since Fang Yuan said that he would bear any accident, it is not impossible for Fang Yuan to bear it.

Moreover, Fang Yuan also said that he would try his best to implement it, so their opposition actually doesn't mean much.

"Since there are no objections, the road construction matter has been approved. I will keep an eye on him throughout the process."

"There is another matter. I have decided to implement the changes in community housing that were introduced some time ago and sell land to prominent families from all over the world to build communities."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Land finance is managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The sale and purchase of land is also controlled by the Ministry of Household Affairs.

But before the deal can be completed, the emperor's nod is needed.

"Shilang Fang, building a community requires a lot of land, and I don't think it's feasible."

Cui Zhentang said calmly.

He can ignore what Fang Yuan said about building roads.

Because building roads will only lead to a bottomless pit of investment, it is difficult to make money.

But building a community is different. It requires a lot of investment in the early stage, but the return will be multiple times in the later stage.

Regarding community housing in Liaozhou, many people in the world already know about it, and Qi Wang, the fifth surname, is well-informed and has known about it for a long time.

Regarding community housing, Wu Xing Qi Wang also has internal ideas, planning to build high-rise buildings for members of his own family, allowing people of the same clan to live in the same building, etc.

"Master Fang, even the lower officials think it's inappropriate."

"Master Fang, no."

The officials objected one by one.

Fang Qingping, who was still close to Fang Yuan, turned ugly.

There weren't many of them to begin with, but after Cui Zhentang was rumored to be the successor to the Ministry of Household Affairs, the number became even smaller.

"This matter is not my opinion alone, it is approved by His Majesty."

Fang Yuan glanced at the objector and sneered in his heart.

Cui Zhentang has a lot of support, and 80% of the people in the household department are biased towards him.

"Your Majesty's approval?"

Everyone was shocked and whispered among themselves.

Finally, I looked at Cui Zhentang, who made the decision.

"Since His Majesty approves it, we have no objections."

"But there is no money left in the treasury. What do you think?"

Cui Zhentang frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.

He just thought that Fang Yuan proposed building roads and building a community again.

She is probably afraid that she will take away his rights if she takes power, and is now looking for a way out.

But now that he heard Li Shimin's approval, Cui Zhentang immediately felt that something was wrong.

There may be things you don’t know about here.

"Your Majesty doesn't have any ideas, let us, the Ministry of Household Affairs, discuss it ourselves."

Fang Yuan smiled slightly and said calmly.

"Discuss by yourself?"

"But I'm busy lately, so I'm afraid I won't be able to participate."

Cui Zhentang frowned deeper and shook his head.

He felt even more unusual in these two things.

So I decided not to support Fang Yuan and make Fang Yuan’s affairs impossible.

As long as Tang Jian successfully resigns, the Minister of Household Affairs will fall on his head and the dust will fall to the ground.

"Master Fang, I have been busy with a lot of things recently, so I'm afraid I may have neglected the project of building a community. Can you please extend the time a little?"

The officials followed Cui Zhentang's words one after another.

Fang Qingping and others looked on, their faces red with anger, and they glared at them.

"It's okay. I will also check this matter personally. Just have me."

Fang Yuan waved his hand and said calmly.

When everyone saw this, they were even more surprised.

Fang Yuan made these moves when Cui Zhentang was about to take over, was he trying to fight to the death?

Afterwards, the meeting ended, everyone dispersed, and the atmosphere in the household department became even more depressed.

After the meeting, Fang Yuan, who was in the office, called Fang Qingping and others.

"Post announcements about road construction and community construction, and publicize them as much as possible."

Fang Yuan ordered.

Time is tight, everything must be implemented as soon as possible.

One month is only thirty days.

"Sir, do you have any ideas?"

Fang Qingping did not go down immediately, but asked excitedly in a low voice.

“I have an idea, but I’m not sure whether it can be realized.”
