"Uncles, this question is actually very simple, it is nothing more than two points, open source and throttling! ”

Li Yi took a step forward, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said confidently.

"Oh? What is an open source method? And how to throttle? ”

Li Er asked very cooperatively, and Li Yi suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, and this rhythm was right.

"Hehe, let's talk about throttling first, there are only two points to throttle, first, the right to distilled liquor is returned to the imperial court, from now on, no matter who wants to brew and sell distilled liquor, there must be a liquor introduction from the imperial court, and those who brew wine without permission will be severely punished! In this way, the imperial court can regulate the amount of distilled liquor according to the annual grain reserves, and fundamentally control the possibility of grain shortages! ”

As soon as Li Yi's words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and this method has also been proposed, but this method is not very easy to implement, because now the shops that make distilled spirits are mainly the Shang League, and as soon as this decree comes out, once the Shang League makes trouble, it will be difficult to control. But they didn't expect that Li Yi actually mentioned it himself, which surprised everyone.

"Boy, you are willing to hand over the right to make wine?"

Wei Zheng has always said something, Li Yi gave him a bit of a big surprise today, in his impression, Li Yi is more like a treacherous and cunning businessman in his bones, and he has a strong purpose and exchange in everything, but Li Yi's actions today made him a little unable to see through.

Hearing Wei Zheng's question, Li Yi put away his hippie smile, and replied with a very solemn face: "Uncle Wei, there is nothing reluctant to give, whether it is the Shang Alliance or the Prohibition, it is fundamentally for the benefit of Datang. If the prohibition will hurt the interests of Datang, then, let alone a hundred officials, even if everyone in the world is against it, the little nephew will stick to it to the end and never take a step back; But now that the distilled liquor of the Shang Alliance has endangered the interests of Datang, then, no one should shirk any responsibility for any reason, let alone the alcohol restriction order, if necessary, even if the Shang Alliance collapses, the little nephew will never frown. As long as it's right, I, Li Yi, can do nothing, and even if I have nothing, I won't lack the courage to start all over again! All in all, it is one sentence: the interests of Datang are above all else! ”

"Good!" Li Er slapped the table and shouted.

"A good sentence, Datang's interests are above all else! The words of the virtuous son-in-law are enough to shame all of us, and this sentence is enough to serve as a warning to my Tang officials! ”

Wei Zheng looked at Li Yi with a righteous face, his eyes were full of surprise, at this moment, he really recognized Li Yi, and he also knew why Li Yi dared to be so presumptuous in front of Li Er, because they are the same kind of people, Li Yi once said a sentence that was once written down by him and hung on the head of the bed, and he had to read it every day: the sea is inclusive, and there is tolerance; The wall stands thousands of people, and if there is no desire, it is rigid!

"The temperament of the virtuous nephew, I might as well be, just now I spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, I really shouldn't be, the old man is here to apologize to the virtuous nephew!"

Li Yi was shocked and hurriedly helped Wei Zheng up. "Uncle Wei, this is a lot of trouble for the little nephew, the little nephew is still young, it is when he needs to be trained by all the uncles, what should he not do!"

Li Er smiled. "Yes, Xuan Cheng, don't be polite to this kid, this kid is good, but he is a master who doesn't hesitate to mix, so he still needs to be trained."

As soon as Li Er's words came out, the hearts of all the old ministers suddenly froze, Li Er's words seemed to be blaming Li Yi, but anyone could hear it, Li Er was telling everyone that Li Yi was his most optimistic junior, you can train it, but you can't go too far, you know, not everyone can let Li Er be treated like this, throughout the ancient and modern times, it is just Li Yi alone.

The ministers saw that Li Yi's gaze had really changed this time, and they now knew that Li Yi, who seemed to have no real power, was the most unprovoked, because he had the biggest backer in the entire Tang Dynasty. But then again, Li Yi's personality really convinced everyone, counting it carefully, Li Yi's popularity has been good since he came out of the mountain, just because of one point, Li Yi never eats alone, everyone knows that as long as he is good friends with Li Yi, there is no one who is unsatisfactory.

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji, who was standing in the first row, lowered his head, his eyes flashed with complicated eyes from time to time, looking at Li Yi who was talking eloquently in front of hundreds of officials, the eldest grandson Wuji had a sense of frustration for the first time, in fact, if he wanted to move to Li Yi, he had many ways, how strong Li Yi was, after all, he had little experience in the rivers and lakes, if he could, the eldest grandson Wuji had a lot of insidious tricks waiting for Li Yi, but he never made a move, not that he didn't dare, but that he couldn't do it, some people, couldn't move!

"Alright, boy, you go ahead!"

Li Erchang breathed a sigh of relief, held back his anger all morning, and finally dissipated most of it, although the matter has not yet been concluded, but at least he has a group of ministers who are really for the Tang Dynasty, with these people, he has nothing to fear, not to mention, what about that stinky boy?

"Yes, the little nephew continued, the second way to throttle is to improve the distillation technology, now the distillation tools are made of iron, bamboo, wood, etc., this equipment is not only inefficient, but also a lot of waste, I have not found a substitute before, I can only use it, but now there is!"

"Huh? What's up? Don't sell it, say it! ”

"Yes, in fact, the best tool for distillation is not iron. Bamboo or something, but glass! ”

"Glass?"

"Yes, it's glass, which is not only waterproof, leak-proof, impermeable, but also resistant to high temperatures. It is the best material for distillation. However, not all glass can be, the glass used in distillation has high requirements, it is impossible to achieve mass production with current technology, but it can still be made with some effort, fortunately, the existence of limited liquor, so far there is not a lot of equipment, enough to supply demand! ”

"How much can the loss be reduced with glass?"

"At least forty percent!"

"Good! Stinky boy, why don't you take out this good thing and use it early? Tell the glass workshop to make the necessary equipment for distillation as soon as possible! ”

Fang Xuanling came out of the queue and agreed.

Now the glass workshop, like the cement workshop, is owned by the Ministry of Finance, but it does cooperate with the Business Alliance, the Ministry of Finance is responsible for production, and the Business Alliance is responsible for sales!

"After throttling, it's time to talk about open source!"

Li Er was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Hehe, okay, don't be reckless with your kid, these two open source methods are enough, although they can't alleviate the crisis, but they are enough to resolve the crisis!" Also open source, do you want to increase grain production? ”

Li Er was in a good mood and made a rare joke.

All the ministers also laughed, for the increase in grain production, everyone did not report any hope, because, this is not realistic at all, for thousands of years, each generation of capable people have put the greatest energy on increasing grain production, but the results are very small, so that until now, no one dares to think about this, increase production? It's not bad if there is no food shortage!

However, I saw Li Yi shouting loudly: "The little nephew has a way to increase grain production, if it is implemented properly, the little nephew dares to guarantee that the total amount of grain in my Datang will at least double!" ”

As soon as Li Yi's voice fell, everyone was suddenly petrified.
