When Emperor Jing Xing didn't come in, he cursed him loudly and didn't punish him to face the wall, nor did he ask him to kneel under the ancestral plaque.
Liu Yu's heart relaxed a little, and he felt a little more courageous. He boldly said: "Do business."
"Doing business?" Emperor Jing Xing was shocked when he heard this.
Whether it is Daqian or the countries in the four directions, there are clear class divisions, including scholars, peasants, industry and merchants, and clear social hierarchies.
Although this businessman made a lot of money, he was not engaged in production and was greedy, so his status in various countries was not very high.
This is everyone’s common impression of merchants.
But after Emperor Jing Xing heard this, he was not angry, just surprised.
After all, no matter how bad it is to be in business, it is still better than studying how to go to war all day long.
The emperor is the king of a country and is the key to the stability of the country. How can he go to the battlefield in person unless his life is in danger?
If he is captured by an enemy general, if he is not good enough, the entire country may be destroyed in one fell swoop.
In comparison, doing business is really not that harmful.
"What's the business for?"
"Earn money."
When Emperor Jing Xing heard this, his face darkened and he almost lost his temper.
"What do you make if you don't make money from doing business? I'm asking you what do you do if you make money?"
"Buy iron ore, make weapons, buy grain and grass, recruit soldiers, train day and night, and fight to the death with the traitors of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!" Liu Yu's face was full of excitement!
Yes, that's why he wants to make a lot of money!
In addition to wanting to impress Emperor Jing Xing, war also requires money!
If he wanted to train a truly elite force, it would be impossible without money.
"Father, over the years, Beiyuan has become more and more powerful, and their cavalry has become even more brave and good at fighting. One is as good as ten."
"Why don't you go south and seize the land and mountains of our Han family?"
"Because the Northern Yuan Dynasty was also in internal strife! The Aguda, Wanyan, and Tuoba tribes were arguing endlessly, so they stopped going south. Only every autumn, troops came to plunder a small amount of food and grass."
"But once they free up their hands, the three countries bordering the Beiyuan territory may be in danger."
"Western Qin has always strengthened the country with military force, and the Western Qin cavalry is even more famous among the countries around the world."
"Da Chu is the country of the Son of Heaven, and its national power is far stronger than that of the vassal states."
"Compared with these two countries, we are strong in power, weak in national strength, and lacking in military capabilities."
"Father, you should have made plans in advance!"
Facing his own professional field, Liu Yuye became more and more enthusiastic, but he didn't notice at all that Emperor Jing Xing's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"These should be things that the Ministry of War and I consider, as well as the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty!"
"The civil servants will discuss with me and come up with the most appropriate and safest method, and leave it to the Ministry of War to coordinate the deployment of troops and generals to defend the enemy from outside the country."
"Instead of letting you, the crown prince, think about it in private here and steal the treasures of Ganlu Palace, saying it is for the sake of the family, country and the world!"
"If this matter spreads, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"The people will say that you are a thief! The dignified prince is a thief! Where will the majesty of the royal family be then?"
When Liu Yu heard this, he realized that his father's anger was rising again. He immediately lowered his head, buried it on his chest, making a quail shape, and remained silent.
Emperor Jing Xing also realized that he was getting angry again as he spoke.
I don't know why, but he has always been kind to other people.
But when facing this son, he always gets angry for no reason.
Probably...this is father and son.
Emperor Jing Xing sighed, calmed down a little bit of his anger, and asked: "What kind of business are you doing? You must have sold a lot of money on "The Map of Mountains and Rivers", what kind of business can use such a lot of money?"
"Grain business." Liu Yu was much more cautious this time. He would answer whatever he asked and never say anything more.
"In the grain business? Buy at a low price? Sell at a high price? Where to buy it and where to sell it?"
"No, we don't buy food, we make it ourselves."
"Making your own food? Can't you farm it?"
Emperor Jingxing was a little pleased. The peasants, farmers, and merchants were ranked behind the scholar-bureaucrats, which showed how important agriculture was.
If the prince could care about farming, his efforts would not be in vain.
But who would have thought that Liu Yu shook his head and said: "It's not about growing food, it's...how should I put it, anyway, it's about making food!"
"Lao Li said that he can make food that will not spoil. When the time comes, he will sell this food to the soldiers who are going to the sea. If the soldiers eat this, they will not have to eat rotten and smelly food, and they will not get diseases."
"Old Li? Who is he? Li Changkong?"
"Yeah." Liu Yu nodded honestly.
When Emperor Jing Xing heard this, he frowned immediately.
After what happened last time, his impression of Li Changkong had greatly changed.
This is a talented and capable child, a fine piece of rough jade.
As long as you work hard and teach well, you will definitely be able to become a great talent in the future and become a great talent who can take charge of the great cadres.
That's why Li Changkong was given the title of General Hu Benlang to be compatible with the affairs of Young Master Zhan of the East Palace.
Such a seal cannot be said to be taken lightly.
But...it seems now that no matter how talented Li Changkong is, he is still just a child, prone to unrestrained imagination and taking things for granted.
The disease at sea has troubled countries in all directions for decades, even hundreds of years!
In the past hundred years, how many amazingly talented doctors have come out?
They can only alleviate it, how dare you, a young boy, let alone solve it?
It's really... whimsical.
But it is good to have such a heart to share the worries of the imperial court.
It's just that the way things are done is too unsophisticated.
It seems that it still needs a lot of hard work!
"Do you believe it when he says he can do it? Do you believe it when he says he can fly into the sky?"
"Believe me! Lao Li will not lie to you."
"Huh?" Emperor Jing Xing was furious: "You are the king and he is the minister."
"No matter how close the monarch and his ministers are, they cannot trust each other without any bottom line. Otherwise, they will produce powerful ministers!"
"Understandable?"
Hearing this, Liu Yu nodded, as if he understood something: "But you don't know, Father, Lao Li is different. If he says he can do it, he will definitely do it."
When Emperor Jing Xing heard this, he finally became angry.
This is my stupid son. If he is sold by someone in the future, I am afraid he will have to help others count their money.
"How can I entrust the country and the country to you after a hundred years when you look like this?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu buried his head in his chest again, making a trembling quail posture, and did not dare to speak.
When Emperor Jingxing saw this, he was furious: "Rotten wood cannot be carved!"
"You are not allowed to step out of the East Palace within this month!"
"Let me think carefully about where I went wrong!"
"For so many years, I have always taught you by words and deeds, but in the end, you don't look like a prince at all!"
After saying that, Emperor Jing Xing waved his sleeves and left.
