As a member of the Li family, I naturally do not want the Li family to follow in the footsteps of the Sima family.
Xie and Wang share the world, which sounds very domineering and domineering, but this is only the glory of the Xie family and the Wang family.
For Sima, it is a kind of sadness, a kind of incompetent and powerless sadness.
With the Sima family as an example, how could the Li family share the world with a wealthy family?!
Therefore, after the Li family unified the country, the wealthy families became the Li family's biggest enemies.
Every Li family member must have the belief that they must be eliminated.
Li Yuanji continued: "So we have to pay attention to those talents who come from small families, and we have to cultivate those talents who come from small families. Only in this way can we weaken the influence of people from wealthy families on our country and the Tang Dynasty."
Take control.
I ordered people to open martial arts schools in various places, and also asked people in martial arts to open elementary schools in various places, just to break the monopoly of learning by wealthy families and allow scholars from small families and poor families to stand out.
As long as these people become the mainstream in the court, then even if we ruthlessly get rid of the wealthy families, we will not ruin the Li family."
Li Daoli finally understood Li Yuanji's good intentions of attaching great importance to talents, and he also clearly understood that behind the seemingly peaceful Tang Dynasty, there was already turmoil.
As a member of the Li family, it is right to go through fire and water for the Li family.
So he stood up without hesitation and said: "Brother Wang, there is no need to be in the majority. I know what to do. I will take Liu Rengui seriously. Not only that, I will also open an elementary school in the fiefdom to welcome the poor in the area."
After my disciples arrive in Silla, they will also open an elementary school in the city built by Silla for our Tang Dynasty."
Li Yuanji nodded with satisfaction.
He admired Li Daoli's dedication to the clan and his contribution to the clan.
It is because most people in this generation value the clan, so no matter what he wants to do, there will be a lot of allies behind him who are following him and are willing to pay for him.
With the help of these allies, it will be much easier for him to do things.
"Since you, the younger brother, are so polite, then I, the older brother, shouldn't be stingy either."
Li Yuanji thought for a moment and smiled: "In this way, after your elementary school in Silla is completed, I will allocate some places for you from Taipei."
Li Daoli's thoughts turned quickly and he said, "Brother Wang, you want me to recommend some talented students from poor backgrounds to study at Taixue?"
Li Yuanji said with a smile: "That's not the case. There are two purposes for this move. The first is to prevent Silla from peeking into the profound knowledge of our Datang Dynasty; the second is to open up a new way of making money for you and for our Datang Dynasty.
It is also to give the children of merchant families a chance to get ahead."
Li Yuanji's words were all about this, how could Li Daoli not understand.
Li Daoli said in shock: "Brother Wang wants me to sell those quotas to the children of merchant families?"
Li Yuanji smiled and nodded.
Merchants were of low status, and even if there were outstanding children in their families, they would not be able to study at Imperial College, let alone become officials.
Therefore, no matter how rich a merchant is, he can only be a merchant.
Although people from wealthy families controlled a large number of merchants in the Tang Dynasty, there were still some merchants who were not controlled by people from wealthy families.
For example, there are some merchants who are attached to small households, and some small merchants who cooperate with officials.
Although these merchants have backgrounds, they basically have cooperative relationships with the small households and officials they rely on.
They can do business with the people they are attached to, but they can never do anything to help the people they cooperate with.
These people are worth winning over.
If Li Daoli operates properly and allows these people to become the mainstream in the city built by Silla for the Tang Dynasty, then after these people earn a certain amount of money, they will naturally seek channels for promotion in terms of status.
If Li Daoli gives them another promotion channel in terms of status, then they will become their own faction, which is completely different from the wealthy families. In the future, when the imperial court wants to deal with the wealthy families, they will also stand on the side of the imperial court.
Although this can also be done within the Tang Dynasty, the people within the Tang Dynasty are under the watchful eye of the wealthy families. Once an 'ownerless' businessman obtains too much money, or has a promotion channel in terms of status, the wealthy families will definitely
Will try to win over or suppress.
In this way, no matter how far it develops in the end, it is equivalent to giving blood to a wealthy family.
This operation was different in Silla. The emperor was far away in Silla, and people from wealthy families could not notice it. It was also difficult for one or two imperial students emerging from Silla to alert people from wealthy families.
By the time the wealthy families discovered that there were too many imperial students from Silla, the imperial students from Silla and the merchants in Silla were probably already connected.
At that time, it will not be so easy for people from wealthy families to deal with them.
After all, people have their roots in Silla, and it is impossible for people from wealthy families to go to Silla to suppress them or recruit them.
Silla King Jin Baijing may be afraid of the Tang Dynasty, but he will definitely not be afraid of the wealthy families of the Tang Dynasty.
After all, the Tang Dynasty had the ability to destroy Silla, but the wealthy families did not.
It's impossible for people from wealthy families to stop a group of soldiers from going to conquer Silla, right?
In that case, there would be no need for Silla to take action, and Tang Dynasty would send troops first to destroy them all.
After all, the Tang Dynasty had strict regulations on the control of private armed forces. Anyone who violated them would want to rebel.
The Tang Dynasty could justifiably send troops to annihilate them.
This is the advantage of using Silla's place to cultivate talents for the Tang Dynasty.
Not only have the talents been trained, but the places at Taixue can also be sold for a lot of money.
It can be said that it is a combination of talent and money.
"Brother Wang, does he value money too much?"
Li Daoli didn't have many ideas. He simply thought that Li Yuanji was a little greedy for money?
He actually sold his Imperial College quota for money!
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes at Li Daoli angrily and said, "I would like to give them the place at Imperial College for free. The question is, do you think they dare to ask for it?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A county prince acts as a white glove and gives the place of Imperial College to a lowly student for free. Who dares to ask for it?
If those merchants were not scared and ran away at night, they would be considered bold.
Only by treating the Imperial College quota as a commodity and a means of making money can those merchants accept it with confidence.
There is no such thing as pie in the sky.
This is the self-protection experience that the common people have accumulated over the years, and it is also the restraint that the common people have set for themselves.
This constraint has been deeply ingrained into the flesh and blood of many people, and it is impossible to break it.
So we can only use this more utilitarian method to do it.
Li Daoli suddenly realized it and said with shame: "My brother was negligent..."
Li Yuanji waved his hand and said: "Okay, you can go back and prepare. I think you can leave soon. Remember, you must put your own safety first when you go out. If you find something that endangers you,
Never act rashly and risk your own life."
Li Daoli was stunned for a moment, then solemnly clasped his fists and said, "Brother Chen, I understand."
For Li Daoli, this is a kind of concern.
So he felt a little bit touched in his heart.
However, for Li Yuanji, this is not concern.
He just didn't want Li Daoli to lose his life in Silla. It was really not worth it for a prince to fight for a city and a dock in Silla.
Although there were many princes in the Tang Dynasty, there would be more in the future, and they would become worthless, but it was not something that a city or a dock in Silla could exchange.
"My dear brother, please retire."
Li Daoli bowed and exited the Tai Chi Hall.
…
Three days later, the negotiating team represented by Chen Shuda and Honglu Temple Minister discussed the garrison matter with Kinderman.
The black-hearted Chen Shuda listed many more conditions on the basis of the original conditions. All the conditions added up are outrageously harsh.
According to Li Gang, Kinderman signed the credentials negotiated with Chen Shuda and Honglu Temple with tears in his eyes.
After everything has been agreed upon and the credentials signed.
Three thousand soldiers and horses, headed by Li Daoli and Liu Rengui as his deputy, followed Kinderman to Silla.
The reason why we did not wait until Silla built the city before going there was to prevent Silla from returning.
Of course, the most important thing is to build a dock to make profits for Datang as soon as possible, so that Datang can trade with Silla as soon as possible.
After Li Daoli decided to go to Silla to take charge, he did a lot of work in private.
He had already passed through the door of Li Xiaogong and Gao Yaxian, and asked them to open an opening for him at the shipping port and Dizhou Wharf respectively.
In the future, ships sailing from Dizhou can not only go directly to Jiaozhou, but also to Silla.
In addition, he also won over many merchants with no background and let them start to establish trade relations between Datang and Silla.
He also sent people to contact some small businessmen who wanted to do water transport and shipping business, but were crowded out by wealthy families and could not get in.
With the help of these people, Silla's wharf should be built soon, and trade between Datang and Silla will soon become more frequent.
Li Yuanji originally wanted to meet Liu Rengui, but Liu Rengui was intercepted by people sent by Li Daoli on his way back to Beijing, and then sent to various places in Hebei Province to select soldiers.
It may seem easy to go to Silla to garrison, but not everyone can adapt to the conditions of Silla.
Therefore, if Li Daoli wanted to ensure that the people he brought over could gain a foothold in Silla and adapt to the soil and water of Silla, he had to select suitable soldiers from Hebei Province, a place close to Silla.
Hebei Province has many broken troops left over from the Sui Dynasty's conquest of Goguryeo.
These people have all been to Goguryeo and can adapt to the soil and water of the peninsula more quickly, so Li Daoli's first target is these people.
From this point, it is not difficult to see that Li Daoli is a person who does things and wants to get things done.
After Li Yuanji understood clearly what Li Daoli had done, he safely handed over to Li Daoli the tasks of stationing in Silla, developing financial resources in Silla, and collecting intelligence on the peninsula for the Tang Dynasty.
