Chapter 767 Another way to kill three people with two peaches
Li Yuanji immediately explained the method he had figured out to train county lieutenants and soldiers in various places in martial arts, and then use the deterrent power of county lieutenants and soldiers in various places to open elementary schools.
And clearly explained the pros and cons.
Li Shimin was stunned for a while.
Li Yuan was stunned when he heard this.
As for Li Jiancheng, he was scratching his head.
It's not that he thought he was a monkey, but while he was listening to the lecture, a small insect got into his clothes and he was catching it.
This is the disadvantage of spreading a blanket and sitting directly on the ground.
You never know what might take the opportunity to get under your clothes and then into your body.
Some people may say that people's senses are very sensitive and they will not give those little bugs a chance.
Then you are wrong.
There is a kind of centipede-like insect called a centipede, which likes to burrow into people's valleys.
There are rumors that after this small bug burrows into the human body, it will lay eggs inside the human body and develop a colony.
Just imagine how terrifying it is...
"Is this still possible?"
After Li Shimin was stunned for a while, he said in disbelief.
Li Yuan asked anxiously: "Won't the wealthy families from all over the country join forces to suppress it? After all, this is cutting off their roots!"
Li Yuanji smiled cheerfully and said: "It's just a bachelor's degree. It doesn't pose much of a threat to them. They don't need to mobilize troops."
After all, there are many people who look at three steps after taking one step, but there are almost no people who look at fifty or one hundred steps.
Those who take one step and look at three steps are called divination and are normal; those who look at fifty steps and one hundred steps are called madmen and unfounded worries.
Therefore, if he is just a bachelor, he will not touch the nerves of the wealthy families, and it is not worthy of them joining forces to target him.
Moreover, people always know how to be alert when a disaster is imminent. When there are just some signs of a disaster, they usually ignore it.
Therefore, if Meng Xue does not pose a complete threat to the wealthy family, with the military background, the wealthy family will not take action everywhere.
You can't let a prince, a prince, or a prince send his heirs, or his cronies, to set up an elementary school in his hometown and benefit the whole village. Your wealthy family should also take care of it, right?
In that case, do you believe that everyone in the military will unite against you?!
People work hard to get a title, just to be respected and respected by others. If you step on them, you can step on them. They don’t want to lose face?
Other princes and princes don’t want to lose face?
If you don’t have a duke or a prince in your family, who will they target if they don’t target you?
oh?!
How many influential civil servants are there in your family?
What does that have to do with the military?
The military still wants to bow to a few of your civil servants?!
Sorry, the Tang Dynasty respected martial arts!
We are the biggest!
Therefore, as long as the place where the elementary school is initially opened is selected, the local wealthy families with no military background can fight with the military people first, and arouse the emotions of the military, so that the military can join forces to trample people to death.
If people from the military open elementary schools later, there won't be much resistance.
"I'm afraid they won't even be able to tolerate elementary education!"
Li Yuan said worriedly.
Li Shimin nodded deeply.
Rich families have a monopoly on learning. Whether it is the court or the military, setting up elementary schools in local areas and recruiting children from poor families is tantamount to digging for food on their own land.
Even if there is no threat to them in the early stage of elementary school, it does not prevent them from stepping out in their free time.
After all, they are used to being aloof and do not need to distinguish right from wrong or whether it is harmful or not. Sometimes there is no reason at all.
"Haha, so I'm going to let Zhang Liang open the first elementary school."
Li Yuanji smiled confidently.
Li Shimin was stunned, "Zhang Liang?!"
Is it Zhang Liang, the young man under my command?
Li Yuanji nodded.
Yes, that's Zhang Liang, the one under your control who turned from darkness to light.
Li Yuan asked doubtfully: "Why did you choose Zhang Liang?"
Li Yuanji explained with a bright smile: "Because Zhang Liang's ancestral home is in Xingyang, and the largest wealthy family in Xingyang is the Zheng family. Now the head of the Zheng family, Zheng Yuanshou, and Zheng family's important minister in the court, Zheng Shanguo, are all because of my eldest brother's fault.
He was dismissed from his official position.
The Zheng family now only has a few insignificant officials in the court.
If Zhang Liang opens an elementary school in Xingyang, if the Zheng family comes out to oppose it, we can easily control it and then serve as a warning to other wealthy families.
In this way, it will be much smoother to open other elementary schools."
When Li Shimin heard this, he opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Li Yuan looked strange.
Li Jiancheng also stopped catching bugs, looking furious.
Li Yuan glanced at Li Jiancheng specifically and said with a bit of laughter: "Yuanji, have you forgotten that your eldest brother is Zheng's son-in-law, and your sister-in-law is Zheng's daughter?"
Yes, the Zheng character for Zheng Guanyin is exactly the Zheng character for the Zheng family in Xingyang.
The Zheng family in Xingyang is the natal family of Zheng Guanyin.
Li Yuanji glanced at Li Jiancheng provocatively, and said with a meaningful smile: "Isn't this better? The eldest brother is now out of power, and the eldest sister-in-law is also imprisoned in the palace and has no way to get out.
Zheng's biggest support is gone, wouldn't it be easier to handle it?"
Among the five surnames and seven favorites, only the Zheng family married their daughter to the Li family. The other families were so proud that they looked down on the Li family at all. This also shows that the Zheng family is now in a period of decline. Otherwise, it would not be possible.
I won't let go of my pride and marry Mrs. Li.
However, the Zheng family is now looked down upon by the backers in the court, and its spokesperson in the court has also fallen. This is the time when she is at her weakest.
At this time, if Zhang Liang and the military people are asked to step on it, a hole will definitely be created.
As for taking this opportunity to defeat the Zheng family in one fell swoop, that is unlikely.
No matter how you say it, the Zheng family is still a camel. Even though it is already skinny, it is bigger than a horse. Moreover, when Li Jiancheng became powerful, the Zheng family frantically married with other families and the new rich in the court, and had already formed a bigger alliance.
network of relationships.
If the Zheng family is wiped out in one fell swoop, the Zheng family's in-laws will definitely not sit idly by and watch.
Therefore, we can only step on it and step it out of the ranks of the top aristocratic families first.
The Zheng family is different from the Zhaojun Li family. Their head is a smart man. If they deal with the Zheng family in the same way as the Zhaojun Li family, they will definitely dare to cut off their tails to survive.
That means giving up all the family property outside of Xingyang in exchange for the support of other wealthy families.
After other wealthy families have easily obtained the benefits of the Zheng family, they will no longer covet the Zheng family's ancestral property in Xingyang, so there is a high chance that they will join forces to help the Zheng family.
So it's not good to do evil things to Mr. Zheng.
Moreover, using the same method twice to remove two wealthy families will also arouse the vigilance of other wealthy families.
In that case, the Li family would be openly opposed to all the wealthy families. Then it would be difficult to do anything dirty and they would have to be tough.
However, the price of being tough is very high, and the harm to Datang is greater than the benefit, so it is not advisable.
After Li Yuan glanced at Li Jiancheng guiltily, he held back his smile unkindly and whispered in a low voice: "That's true..."
Li Jiancheng exploded all of a sudden. He didn't care about the bugs that got into his clothes. Zeng stood up and shouted: "Why target the Zheng family? Why not target the Yang family?"
In Li Jiancheng's view, Li Yuanji was not digging at the foundation of a wealthy family, nor was he targeting the wealthy family, but was targeting him and digging at his foundation.
Li Yuanji laughed unkindly, "I wanted to target the Yang family, but in Hongnong where the Yang family is located, there is not a single military general from a poor background. If I let others go, it doesn't mean that he and the Yang family should wear the same pants.
Well?"
Li Jiancheng shouted angrily: "Then I don't care, you can target anyone, except the Zheng family!"
Li Yuanji didn't speak anymore, but just gave Li Yuan a look.
It means...it's up to you to take care of your son!
After Li Yuan understood, he glared at Li Yuanji shamelessly, and then said to Li Jiancheng with a straight face: "Jianjiancheng, this is a major matter related to the inheritance of my Li family, don't play with your petty temper!"
Li Jiancheng pointed at Li Yuanji and shouted angrily: "Am I trying to show my temper? He is targeting me!"
Li Yuan's face turned cold and he scolded: "In your heart, am I, the Li family, not as important as the Zheng family?"
Li Jiancheng opened his mouth and trembled, but could not say a word.
Li Yuan's words are simply a killer statement.
No matter how important Li Jiancheng regarded the Zheng family, he did not dare to utter any rebuttal at this moment.
If he dares to say it, he is not a qualified heir to the Li family.
No matter how much Li Yuan wanted him to inherit the family business and how much he loved him, he would not hesitate to give up his position as prince and demote him to a commoner like Li Shimin.
Before Li Yuan seized the throne, he might have given up the family business for his son.
But after he seized the throne, even if he loved his son to the very bones, he would not give up a single bit of his family fortune because of his son.
Because he has been raised to the highest position, he has no choice.
If he values his son and not his family's fortune, what awaits him is not only the disaster of annihilation, but also the disaster of annihilation of his family.
It is impossible for him to involve other sons and other tribesmen because of one son.
"Keep talking!"
After Li Yuan gave Li Jiancheng a cold look, he stopped talking to Li Jiancheng. Instead, he turned around and motioned for Li Yuanji to continue.
Li Yuanji nodded and continued: "As long as Zhang Liang can follow Zheng's footsteps and open a elementary school in Xingyang, it will be easy for others to open elementary schools in other places.
However, even if Mongolian education is rolled out to all parts of our country, Datang, if we want to enjoy the benefits of Mongolian education, we will still have to wait for a long time.
So I also prepared another method.
That is to use the huge profits from water and sea transportation to attract the attention of all wealthy families to the water, and then secretly instigate them to kill each other."
Li Yuan thought about it and said, "How can we kill each other?"
Li Shimin also sat up straight and listened patiently.
Only Li Jiancheng was still angry.
Li Yuanji smiled knowingly and said: "Of course every year, the family's qualifications to make profits through water and sea transportation are reduced."
That is to say, one ticket and one admission ticket are reduced for each age.
Li Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Wonderful!"
When it comes to getting rich, the most taboo thing is to worry about inequality rather than scarcity.
Everyone used to be wealthy, but if one family suddenly loses their fortune, there will definitely be an uproar.
If there is a little more dark wind and a little bit of will-o'-the-wisp, there will definitely be trouble.
"If the reduced qualifications of this family are given to other families through illegal means, the fight will definitely become more fierce."
Li Shimin's eyes also lit up, and he gave his own suggestions.
Li Yuanji smiled and nodded, that's what he thought.
At that time, the person who has lost his qualifications will definitely think that someone else has used some conspiracy to plot against him, and he will definitely go back with crazy revenge.
After all, blocking someone's way of making money is like killing your parents.
The hatred for killing one's father is irreconcilable.
This is an alternative way of saying "two peaches kill three men".
It is estimated that when the number of wealthy families involved in water transportation and sea transportation is reduced by half, the people of the wealthy families will react.
After all, the number of tickets for water and sea transportation has not decreased, but the number of holders has decreased.
No one would think that this was a conspiracy to plot against them, they would just think that someone else had robbed them of their tickets.
The Tang Dynasty will not suffer any major damage during this process. Instead, it will use the power of wealthy families to fill the granaries and national treasury in various places.
