By the time she got home, Fang Xuanling was still a little dizzy.
Doing business?
His son-in-law actually wanted to bring the emperor into business? And he mainly did business with various foreign countries?
Anyway, from the time he heard about this to now, Fang Xuanling's mind has hardly stopped. He was buzzing with what the emperor said, and he didn't even have the time to deal with daily political affairs.
That was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!
These days, not to mention the emperor, but also the dignitaries in the court, who dares to do it... no, I should say, who dares to do business openly?
Not being poked in the spine and laughed at to death?
As a result, now the King of Han dares to drag the Emperor along with him?
How dare he?
"Ms. sir, you... what's going on?"
When Fang Xuanling entered the house, his wife and children all bowed, and she was a little surprised when she saw how absent-minded he looked.
"Ah? Oh, nothing, nothing."
Woke up from deep thought, Fang Xuanling was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand quickly: "Send dinner to the study later, I have some things to think about..."
After finishing speaking, he walked directly to his study without waiting for anyone to respond.
This matter should not be talked about casually.
Although the emperor looked joking and didn't seem to take King Han's suggestion seriously, how could Fang Xuanling, who had been with Li Shimin for decades, not know that His Majesty was completely moved? Otherwise,
Even if King Han is not punished, he should at least be reprimanded in private, right?
The results of it?
Now Fang Xuanling has even been specially called to discuss this matter... Yes, Fang Xuanling knows, in fact, the purpose of the emperor calling him there today is to discuss this matter!
This is not a sign of heartbeat, what is it?
only……
"No wonder, after all, it's at least 100,000 yuan a year!"
The moment he stepped into the study door, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but sigh secretly, and shook his head with a wry smile - one hundred thousand guan may not be in the eyes of the prime minister of this country, but one hundred thousand guan every year, and it is at least
... According to the emperor, King Han once said that if everything goes well, it is possible to earn 200,000, 300,000, or even 400,000 or 500,000 a year!
This is too exaggerated!
You know, now that money is "expensive" and food is "cheap", how many copper coins can the Tang Dynasty's treasury earn in a year?
Fang Xuanling knew very well that the total annual income in the twelfth year of Zhenguan was only a little over 10 million guan, and the copper coins were only over 800,000 guan. The rest were all cloth, silk, etc.
Food and other things!
Even the salaries distributed by the ministers in the court were mainly cloth, grain and meat, and copper coins... that is, gold, were very few.
So if he could really earn Datang 50 yuan a year... no, even if it was only 200,000 yuan, Fang Xuanling felt that this business...
"No, no, no, you can't think like that!"
As soon as a thought came to his mind, Fang Xuanling was startled by himself and quickly shook his head desperately.
The emperor does business?
It’s crazy!
However, no matter how hard he shook his head and warned himself that he was the emperor, until Madam personally walked into the study carrying the food tray, Fang Xuanling was still sitting on the chair blankly, with those thoughts lingering in his mind.
idea……
…
"Gudong!"
After swallowing hard, Fang Fengzhu, like her father, felt like she was going crazy!
Oh my God!
Why is the king so... so bold?
Glancing at the princess next to him, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, Fengzhu, why is your face so pale?"
"...King!"
After swallowing again, Fang Fengzhu said with a wry smile with a trembling voice: "Why do you dare to tell His Majesty directly? Such things as business...such things..."
"Ha ha……"
Seeing Fang Fengzhu's uncomfortable look, Li Yuanjia suddenly laughed.
Smiling, Fang Fengzhu pouted and said dissatisfied: "Your Majesty, why are you laughing? Humph!"
The rare appearance of a little girl made Li Yuanjia's heart heat up. He finally shook his head and said, "You, you just think too much!"
"But……"
"Okay, no buts."
Narrowing his eyes, Li Yuanjia chuckled and said: "I'm not forcing your majesty to agree, otherwise I will do whatever I want. I just went and said it... If your majesty is willing, you can get hundreds of thousands of yuan in vain a year. If you don't want me to do it again,
The same goes for finding others, what are you worried about?"
In Li Yuanjia's view, Fang Fengzhu and the others' worries were somewhat unfounded.
Yes, it has been a long-standing practice in China to emphasize agriculture and suppress business, and the emperor's business dealings were indeed a bit shocking! But don't forget that the Tang Dynasty was also the most open era in Chinese history. After dealing with Li Shimin many times,
Li Yuanjia also discovered that this famous historical emperor had a big mind that was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
For example, sea salt is the most typical example.
So even though it didn't sound good, driven by huge interests, Li Yuanjia was certain that the emperor would accept this suggestion - not much, but it was possible after all!
Not to mention that this is just a door-to-door delivery of money, so why should you worry?
and……
Others are fine, and they may be labeled as this or that, but who is Li Yuanjia? The emperor's younger brother, with thirteen incense and white paper in front, and sea salt and glass in the back, what does it mean to make this suggestion?
While he was thinking about this, Fang Fengzhu was a little speechless.
But she didn't have the time to think about it at the moment, because Li Yuanjia's words just now clearly frightened her: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, you just said...hundreds of thousands of dollars a year?"
"Haha, that's right."
Li Yuanjia raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "I told His Majesty, at least 100,000 guan a year! If done well, it is not impossible to reach 300,000 guan or even 500,000 guan... Haha."
Thinking of how he acted coquettishly in front of the emperor, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but feel happy again.
Originally he only wanted to give a pie of 300,000 yuan, but later he was afraid that Li Shimin would not be moved, so he cruelly increased it to 500,000 yuan - this number was almost one-twentieth of Datang's annual fiscal revenue! If
Considering the income from copper coins, the ratio is even more terrifying!
Anyway, Li Yuanjia felt that the second child must be excited.
The question now is just to weigh whether you are willing to take this risk - after all, he is the emperor. Even if he can hide behind the scenes and let his brother Li Yuanjia do it in the open, it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
, it’s impossible for those ministers to know nothing at all!
"Actually, it would be convenient if Datang had a business tax."
Just when Li Yuanjia was thinking about it secretly, he didn't notice that when he just said 500,000 yuan a year, his princess's pupils suddenly shrank. She was dumbfounded and at the same time, her little mouth slowly opened to the limit...
