In fact, some things are not very good to tell Li Simo, a Turkic species, although he is determined to be a dog for Li Shimin, but the old dog also has three teeth, bites people, and there is no rabies vaccine, Lao Zhang doesn't want to die in the desert at a young age.

Simo suppressed more than 100,000 remnants of the profits, which is nothing, but he can resist the temptation and pay tribute to Li Dong 80% of the actual profits of the Wolf Mountain Silver Mine, which is different.

This thing can die for Tian Khan, and there is no need for Zhang De to test it again.

"Is this a neurosis? Damn, I've never seen such a loyal person, especially a foreigner. ”

Lao Zhang was full of emotion, he didn't pay attention to the competition with Pearl Honghu, but he was weaving woolen cloth in Huaiyuan City, but he wanted to keep an eye on not letting Li Simo sell it to the emperor.

Now the owner of Chang'an City is proud, and the Xuanzheng Hall is rewarding. In the past, the reward was 10,000 gold, and he picked and searched and threw ten copper coins, but now Li Dong is very confident, and the reward is 10,000 gold, and he directly throws ten silver cakes. The master of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with the words "Ten Through".

"Your Majesty, I have rewarded important ministers recently, and some of them have passed."

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned and advised his brother-in-law. Although I know that you have white sugar intake, and Donggong is also brazen to pit the rock sugar monopoly, but you can't spend money like water, right? Those who don't know say that you are a great emperor, and those who know that the treasury is surplus will directly scold you for being a loser.

"The auxiliary machine has no worries, and I have my own opinions. A small reward, but at a very small cost. ”

Li Dong, who copied his hands, smiled, not taking it to heart at all, happy, very happy. He said to his eldest brother with a fluttering eyebrow, "Auxiliary, I look at Simo, I am really loyal, loyal." ”

Bandang is a loyal minister, loyal to the king, and a precursor to the king.

The eldest grandson Wuji didn't know about the Wolf Mountain Silver Mine, but he still said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, Simo is attached, but it is a Turkic species after all, so you must guard against it." ”

"It's just more than 100,000 Turkic remnants and 5,000 partial divisions, which can be defeated in one fell swoop, and it's not worth mentioning."

Li Dong heard that Xue Yantuo had also built a Heavenly Khan Avenue in Saibei to show respect for the Tang Emperor, which made Li Dong feel comfortable and his vanity was greatly satisfied. The hat of the first emperor of the ages seems to be put on his head directly.

"Your Majesty!"

The eldest grandson Wuji was suddenly furious, "For the sake of Shanjiu, does Your Majesty want to learn from Emperor Wu of Liu Song?" ”

Li Dong was startled, then sat up straight in a daze, and then begged: "Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed." I know what is wrong, I know what is wrong. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Although the Central Plains is fixed, the external troubles have not been eliminated. After the fall of the Turks, there were more than 100,000 tribes, and the Xia tribe was annexed because of the Turks, and there were no more people who had protection, such as the Khitan, Xi, and Goguryeo, all of whom wanted to divide their cattle and sheep tribes. Tiele Huxue, because of Simo's people in the Hetao, share its pasture, resentful, ready to move. If there is a change, do you expect the Turks to resist it? ”

As Zaifu and the head of Zhenguan's heroes, the eldest grandson Wuji can be said to have worked hard for his brother-in-law. Neiping Wude's old ministers, the old Southern Dynasty, the diplomatic Le Nine surnamed Western Regions, and even the Xiangxiong Tu tribe, the eldest grandson Wuji, did not put the country on the public stand, but inquired seriously.

Regardless of respect or disgust, one thing is certain for Zhenguan's meritorious heroes, the eldest grandson Wuji is worthy of the reward and glory given to him by Li Shimin. As a family member, it is also benevolent and righteous.

"Although the minister doesn't know why His Majesty has recently rewarded him so richly, the minister wants to remind His Majesty: full of losses, humble benefits."

The breeding of pride and complacency is also inevitable, and he became the supreme emperor in his thirties, and looking around, there was no one who could fight. Compared with the ancestors, Li Erqiang's victory over the ancestors is certain. Compared with the emperors of previous dynasties, it is also the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty can be compared with him in martial arts, and the rest of the emperors, even if they are dominant for a while, most of them can't even unify the universe, which is not worth it.

Now the internal and external troubles, magnifying the unified dynasty, it is definitely low. Last year, the state treasury received 16 million yuan, which is a considerable increase. The income of white sugar is even more net profit, and the internal income is the most thin and long-term and stable profit among the previous dynasties.

This made Li Shimin not to say that it was completely inflated, and his vanity skyrocketed, but it is understandable.

And the eldest brother suddenly turned out the potential problems, so that Li Shimin, who was determined to be an emperor through the ages and was heavily painted in the history books, woke up. humbly accepted the advice of the eldest grandson Wuji.

After the monarch and the ministers asked correctly, the emperor left Zaifu to come down for lunch together, accompanied by the queen, and the concubines and daughters were seated.

It's a family banquet, but it's also kind.

The eldest grandson Wuji ate a spoonful of yokan, and then asked the emperor with doubts: "Your Majesty, what is the source of wealth, so that Your Majesty does not hesitate to reward him with silver?" ”

The queen is also curious, seeing what her husband wants to say.

Li Dong coughed lightly, then put down his chopsticks, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said, "A few days ago, um...... Simo discovers a silver mine in Wolf Mountain. ”

The eldest grandson queen stared at her apricot eyes, she never thought that it would be like this.

Li Li, who was eating mushroom rice there, asked curiously, "Uncle, where is Wolf Mountain?" ”

"North of the Great River of Toyoshu, about 200 li."

"Toyoshu?" Li Lizhi was stunned, "Isn't that the North Hetao?" ”

"Exactly."

Li Lizhi suddenly smiled: "I heard that Zhang Dalang went to Hetao to collect style? ”

Mingling...... Anyway, the whole Chang'an knows about it. My brother went to the fortress to pay homage to the relics of the ancestors and feel the indomitable fighting spirit of the ancient ancestors.

For this reason, the friends who ran to Zhang Da'an's children to inquire about the news, each consultation is divided into 200 to 800 texts, and there is no certainty.

Her Royal Highness the princess didn't mention Zhang Dalang, but when she mentioned Zhang Dalang, Li Dong felt a little strange taste of the wine on his lips. Why? Why is that?

"A little boy, I don't know how to study, I only know how to play in the mountains and rivers, which is very hateful!"

Li Dong strongly criticized.

However, the eldest grandson Wuji pondered: No, there must be something wrong. Although this son is young, he has always been assertive. Zhang Gongjin went out to fight in Daizhou the year before last, and the law of military rations was exactly what he dedicated. If there is a silver mine in Wolf Mountain, the Turks can be invincible in the world with this mine twenty years ago.

Unreasonable and unscientific things came out, which made the eldest grandson Wuji, who was Zaifu, very unhappy. There is a kind of little bastard who provokes him in terms of IQ.

As for Li Er, of course he knew that this was very unscientific, and of course he also knew that a certain bear child was stuffed and silently pretending, but for the sake of silver...... He doesn't know anything, he doesn't want to know anything, it's a tacit understanding.

After all, you can't say it explicitly, you don't necessarily have to be a courtier and pay tribute, why are you embarrassed to be the boss and harass every day, right?

But when the emperor saw that his eldest brother seemed to be thinking about things, he immediately smiled and said: "Auxiliary, eat quickly, otherwise the food will be cold......

"Your Majesty, gold, silver, copper and iron, patent of the imperial court, you can let Du Simo mine at will, and the minister asks Your Majesty to send someone to investigate and secretly visit to find out."

"Well, it doesn't have to be. After all, Wolf Mountain is also considered a fiefdom of Simo, if I investigate, wouldn't I lose my trust in others? Forget it......"

Uncle looked at the rhythm at a glance, it was wrong. Li Dong's wife is also slanted, she has been a husband and wife for more than ten years, and she still doesn't know her husband's virtue? There's something wrong with that.

The eldest grandson Wuji took a deep breath, and then squinted his eyes and asked Li Dong: "Your Majesty, Simo handed over the proceeds of the silver mine, I don't know how much?" ”

"Ahem, this ......"

"Your Majesty, if Simo surrenders, it should be handed over to the treasury. How can Your Majesty collect your own money privately? The use of foreign dynasties is becoming more and more tense, and I hope that His Majesty will tell you the truth. ”

Exercise! This is a reasonable and legal way to rob money!

Li Dong almost jumped up, and said with trembling lips: "It's not a lot, and the foreign court doesn't need this little profit." ”

"Your Majesty! This is to compete with foreign dynasties, Your Majesty is the lord of all the people, and the people are an example. The ministers are not for the profit of foreign dynasties, but for the virtue of democracy! ”

To sum it up: for the sake of democracy, hand over the money!

Li Dong's face darkened: Is it okay for me not to do this democracy?

Empress Eldest Sun's heart gambled: What?! The elder brother wants to rob our family's money? Is this still a relative? It's too much!

So the eldest grandson queen said quietly: "Brother, even if you are a woman, you also know the reason. The land of Wolf Mountain, the place of Simo, the output of its income, let it take its own. Now Simo admires the grace of heaven and voluntarily contributes, which is a good story of monarchs and ministers, what does it have to do with foreign dynasties? It is also an evil deed for the elder brother to forcibly take away the sacrifice of Sima. What do you think of all the people in the world? Your Majesty is a democracy and has its own prestige, if it is difficult to maintain even the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, how can the democratic style exist? ”

Wife! Well said!

Li Dong almost burst into tears, it's so good to marry the right wife in this life!

The eldest grandson Wuji glared at his sister, snorted, and then asked in a muffled voice: "Your Majesty, don't you know how much Simo contributed to Beijing?" ”

"Not much, not more."

"How much is it?"

Annoying, I hate it when others ask about my annual income.

But after all, it is a relative, there is no way, Li Dong made a discount: "Eight thousand taels." ”

"How much?"

"Eight thousand taels."

The eldest grandson Wuji pulled his fingers together, eight thousand a month, ninety-six thousand a year, and another windfall.

However, when Li Dong said this number, his eyes drifted very much, and the person next to the pillow looked at his husband's virtue, and suddenly said secretly: Erlang is afraid that he will benefit a lot this time.

In fact, Li Dong directly reported a fraction, but in fact, Li Simo's tribute was 28,000 taels. Lao Zhang was in Wolf Mountain back then, and he debugged the 2,000 wind turbines in Shankou alone. The annual mining capacity of this silver mine at that time was close to 500 tons, and the productivity of the Tang Dynasty was low, but 30 tons was still no problem.

This protection fee is definitely rich, and Zhang De does not seek a penny from it, but trains his mining team. Compared with the profits of coal mines, even a super silver mine with an annual mining capacity of 1,400 tons is garbage.

When the eldest grandson Wuji left the palace, the look back was very complicated and meaningful.
