Chapter 1278 Twenty Thousand International Students
In Daming Palace, Dai Zhou was standing in front of Li Shimin.
He held a list in his hand.
Li Shimin is looking outside.
"What's wrong? What's the matter?" he asked.
Dai Zhou said: "Your Majesty, this is the customs clearance document for international students entering Chang'an this year!"
"What's wrong? Is there anything different this year?" Li Shimin asked casually.
In previous years, a large number of foreign students would study in Chang'an.
The number of people each time ranges from several thousand.
These people came here to learn some of the culture of the Tang Dynasty.
Because the Tang Dynasty was a powerful country, every country wanted to learn from the advanced knowledge of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, a large number of young people were sent to Chang'an City.
Why did you tell yourself such a common and ordinary thing? Li Shimin was very puzzled.
"Because there is something very different here! That's why I have come to the palace!"
"Oh? Tell me! I'm listening!"
Dai Zhou went on to say: "This year, more than 20,000 people from Linyi, Niboluo, Piao, Chitu, Zhenla, Sri Lanka, Heling, Tubo, Lion Kingdom, Dashi, Persia and other countries entered Chang'an.
In the city!”
"Twenty thousand people are indeed a lot of people, and there are many strange countries this year! They have never entered Chang'an City before!" Li Shimin said.
"That's not the point!"
"what is that?"
Li Shimin was at a loss. What did he want to say? Could it be because of the number of people? That's not a problem!
"As far as I know, these people all have the same purpose."
"Oh? Tell me!"
"Their only one destination! A different purpose from previous years."
"Where?" Li Shimin wanted to be angry. What happened to this guy? One question was divided into several paragraphs!
"Shengtang Group! These people, more than 20,000 of them, are only interested in the Shengtang Group! And they seem to have no interest at all in all walks of life provided by the imperial court!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin became angry.
He is the emperor.
Nothing can be done like this.
"More than 20,000 people want to join the Shengtang Group? That won't work!"
"However, we cannot influence them! This is their choice and it is also the practice every year. As long as they abide by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, we cannot interfere with their freedom!"
Dai Zhou said.
Li Shimin frowned.
He turned around and said: "If these people learn things from the Shengtang Group and then go back to their own country to promote new technologies, then it will not be a good thing for Datang!"
"Your Majesty, even if the Sixth Prince does not take the initiative to recruit these people, the technology of the Shengtang Group is not a big secret now. Some things are even widely spread among the people! And the Sixth Prince will not publish confidential things. Even if
Even the imperial court doesn’t know the scientific and technological information of the Shengtang Group! Therefore, I think that even if these people enter the Shengtang Group to study, they probably won’t get anything good.”
When Li Shimin heard this, he seemed to think it made sense.
Li Min will not give his core things to those people.
Because these are the competitiveness of Shengtang Group, Li Min will not announce anything until new technologies are substituted.
Even if those international students are given advanced things, they may not be able to make them.
Moreover, the difference is more than one generation.
Furthermore, if Shengtang Group shares it like this, even if he doesn't teach it, everyone will know about it in the future.
"What you said makes sense, I believe you in this!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Then, Li Shimin suddenly said: "Can the Shengtang Group accommodate these people? I mean, can he accept 20,000 people? One Shengtang Group cannot accommodate so many people!"
"I don't know this!"
Dai Zhou should say.
He didn't know what Li Min wanted to do. How could he, a minister, know?
"Check! Go find out!"
"Yes! Then I will go and find out!"
"etc!"
"Is there anything else, Your Majesty?"
"If we want to do this quickly, it's best to go find out what Shengtang Group is saying. I want to know what he thinks!"
"Yes! I understand!"
After Dai Zhou left the Daming Palace, he headed towards the Shengtang Group.
After he left, Li Shimin said to the side: "Come out! I know you are in there!"
At this time, a person walked out from behind the screen.
It is the royal concubine.
"Your Majesty, I didn't eavesdrop on purpose, I just happened to be inside!"
Concubine Wang said so.
Li Shimin didn't take it seriously.
"I don't mean to blame you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Why did you come to me?"
"Your Majesty, what I want to tell you is also about the overseas students! As far as I know, the Tianzhu people gave hundreds of thousands of taels of gold to the Shengtang Group, on the premise that the Shengtang Group would accept their overseas students. I
I am worried that this will cause the secrets of the Shengtang Group to be leaked. What if it is leaked to Tianzhu? "
"My beloved concubine, you seem to be very interested in the Shengtang Group in recent times!"
Li Shimin did not answer her words, but asked this.
"Your Majesty, I am interested in the Tang Dynasty! Think about it, if the secrets of the Shengtang Group are leaked, it will increase the opponent's strength! What if one day the opponent does something that is not good for us?
That’s good!”
What Wang Guifei said made Li Shimin a little worried.
But his heart is clear.
He won't make a conclusion until everything is clear.
Especially for Li Min.
After all, the importance of a prosperous Tang group to the Tang Dynasty is self-evident.
And Li Min is even more important to Shengtang Group.
It can be said that no one in the entire Tang Dynasty can replace Li Min.
If something goes wrong with Li Min, Shengtang Group may be doomed.
Once the Shengtang Group is over, Datang will not lack a powerful backing!
For Datang, it was set back at least ten years! Or even more.
Therefore, Li Shimin's attitude towards Li Min became more and more cautious.
"I know, I'll let Dai Zhou handle this matter, so don't worry about it!"
When Concubine Wang heard this, it seemed that Li Shimin was becoming more and more difficult to convince.
“I’m thinking all the time about solving your Majesty’s problems!”
"That's not necessary. I have hundreds of civil and military officials here! They will help me think about it!"
"Your Majesty talked about the civil and military officials. As far as I know, most of the officials are from Chang'an University and have an inseparable relationship with the Shengtang Group!"
"Wang, Chang'an University is so powerful that almost all the people will choose to study there. More than 90% of this year's Jinshi scholars are from there. Isn't that a good thing? Moreover, these people are all selected by me... You
Are you questioning me?"
"No, no, no, I don't have that idea!"
"Okay, you don't have to worry about this from now on! Get down!"
Finally, she had to say: "Yes, Your Majesty, I know!"
Concubine Wang wondered why Li Shimin was so difficult to convince today.
