This little girl actually knows how to dare to talk to herself like this.
Zhai Yuexiu has always impressed him as a gentle, virtuous and scheming woman.
But today, why did it become like this?
Could it be that this is a special period for women?
Li Chengqian glanced at Zhai Yuexiu with a puzzled look on his face.
He said: "Are you sure? You want me to leave?"
"certainly."
Zhai Yuexiu raised her head slightly and said: "If His Highness King Qin comes to talk to the little girl about business, the little girl will naturally greet you with a smile."
"But His Highness King Qin, you are asking this little girl to do something for you this time."
"Don't you think there's something wrong with your attitude?"
Have an attitude problem?
Have a problem with your attitude?
Li Chengqian really didn't understand something.
"Girl, you need to know."
He said bluntly: "I came to you this time because I want you to take the lead in doing business in the Western Regions."
"So what?"
Zhai Yuexiu raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Chengqian.
Her indifferent expression really stunned Li Chengqian.
"No, girl, what do you mean?"
"Not many people can get permission to do business in the Western Regions."
"So, I come to you this time not to beg you, but to give you a chance."
Li Chengqian looked straight at Zhai Yuexiu and said, "Let me ask you one last time, are you sure you don't want to do this business?"
"first."
"Whether we can get permission to do business in the Western Regions is secondary."
"Whether you can come back alive is the most important thing."
"Your Highness King Qin, you are a smart man, and I am not a fool."
Zhai Yuexiu said: "Yes, you can make a lot of money by doing business in the Western Regions, even more profitable than in the Central Plains."
"But, I'm not the kind of businessman who can disregard the lives of the people below me just for the sake of money."
"So Your Highness King Qin, you'd better go ahead with this matter Find someone else."
Zhai Yuexiu said very firmly.
Moreover, her concerns are also the most realistic.
Since the end of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains lost control of the Western Regions.
The trade routes in the Western Regions are basically in a state of neglect.
During this period, not everyone took the risk to do business in the Western Regions.
But in the end, people are destined to make money but not spend money.
And based on the current situation in the Western Region, the level of danger will only be higher.
Hear what she said.
Li Chengqian finally understood why she thought he was begging her to do something.
He chuckled and said, "Do you think I might let you take risks?"
"To tell you the truth, King Qu Wentai of Gaochang has promised me that he will open the door to allow merchants from the Tang Dynasty to settle in and do business today."
"And during the whole process, I will be protected by soldiers from the Tang Dynasty."
"So, your worries are unnecessary."
Li Chengqian knocked on the table, looked at Zhai Yuexiu with a smile on his face and said, "Do you still think that I should beg you humbly for this matter?"
Hearing these words, Zhai Yuexiu was embarrassed.
What does it mean that the heart of a villain measures the belly of a gentleman?
This is the most perfect interpretation.
At first, this guy just thought that Li Chengqian wanted to use his identity to force himself to take the lead in bringing the Zhai family into the Western Regions, thereby achieving his goal of allowing more businessmen to do business in the Western Regions.
But now she understands.
Li Chengqian was really giving her a chance, and he was considering her in all aspects.
All of a sudden, Zhai Yuexiu didn't know what to say.
{Received tension value +99 from Zhai Yuexiu...}
Hearing the system prompt, Li Chengqian shook his head slightly.
He said: "I think you should agree to this, so I won't say anything more about it.
Now, just prepare well and wait until you go to do business."
After saying that, he didn't care what Zhai Yuexiu's expression was, called Cheng Hualiang and walked out of the teahouse.
After coming out.
Cheng Huailiang looked at Li Chengqian with complicated eyes. ??
Seeing this, Li Chengqian asked with some confusion: "Is there a flower on my face?"
"without……"
Cheng Huailiang scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Your Highness, I just feel that your treatment of Zhai Yuexiu this time is a bit out of character for you."
"Um?"
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows slightly, and then asked: "Then what is my character?"
"Based on my understanding of His Highness."
"The first time Zhai Yuexiu told you to leave, you would leave without hesitation."
Cheng Huailiang said: "Why would you explain it to the other party like this?"
"Besides, I still don't understand something."
"Why do you have to give such a good thing to the Zhai family?"
Cheng Huailiang scratched his head and asked: "Isn't it good for us to do this business ourselves?"
What he said is correct.
This business can be taken over by the court itself, so why push this chicken that can lay golden eggs out?
But obviously, he still hasn't understood what Li Chengqian meant.
Li Chengqian glanced at Cheng Huailiang and said with a smile: "What else can I say, are you short-sighted?"
"Doing business by yourself will only make the court rich in the final analysis."
"But isn't our court rich enough?"
Hearing this, Cheng Hualiang was stunned.
indeed.
The Tang court was really, really rich.
Not to mention a few farms, as well as salt, grain, and triathlon controlled by the court.
Just talking about the bank alone was enough for the court to spend countless money.
But is it Li Chengqian’s purpose to make the court rich? Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "What I want is that everyone in the world can become rich and there will be no more hunger in the world."
"If this business is done by the court itself, it will only be the court that makes money in the end, and the people will get very little money."
"After all, how many people can the imperial court employ when doing business?"
"Eighteen hundred people? Tens of thousands of people?"
"But you have to know that our Tang Dynasty has more than 30 million people."
"And among these more than 30 million people, how many of them have serious jobs and jobs that can support their families?"
Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Huailiang and said: "So, the way to really make the people live a good life is not to let the court monopolize everything and fill their own pockets."
"It's about creating as many jobs as possible so that these people have a place to make money and a place to eat."
"Now that we have opened up the Western Region trade routes, after those merchants see that the Zhai family is making money, more merchants will flock to the Western Regions."
"And these businessmen have to hire workers, which solves the employment problem of a large number of people."
"As much as workers need to eat, they also need to wear clothes, which will drive up the market price of grain and fabrics."
"Once the market prices of grain and fabrics increase, farmers who farm the land will become rich, and businesses who produce fabrics will also become rich."
Li Chengqian stopped and asked, "Do you know what will happen if farmers and merchants become rich?"
No matter how slow Cheng Huailiang reacted.
After Li Chengqian's detailed explanation, I finally understood.
He said bluntly: "That way, all the people will have money, because they will also lead other people."
"You have not disappointed me."
Li Chengqian chuckled lightly, raised his hand and patted Cheng Huailiang on the shoulder, saying: "You have been with me for so many years, no matter what, you should learn something from me."
"To put it simply, this matter will make some people rich, but to put it more deeply, it will make everyone rich."
"At the very least, getting dressed and fed is no longer a problem..."
