"Yes, if the people of Goguryeo are gone, then they will directly become the people of my Tang Dynasty, which is obviously unreasonable. In this way, I am asking for them, but giving them benefits! Li Shimin also said.

Jingwen is actually very complaining about the policies of ethnic minorities in ancient times and later generations, the Tang Dynasty is actually the best era for the integration of ethnic minorities in China, but the Tang Dynasty is a certain discrimination against the people who have lost the country. Those who died in the country were not only not able to receive superior treatment, but were slightly discriminated against. And only when they can really integrate in, can they get the same treatment. As for later generations, looking at the fact that many Han people want to change to ethnic minorities, we can see which is better or worse in terms of ethnic integration. Therefore, if Goguryeo perishes, and directly give them the same treatment, this is simply unreasonable, this is simply welfare!

"Your Majesty, just now we just talked about the interests of the population, and there are many other interests. For example, land, how do we dispose of our land? Jingwen asked.

And Li Shimin also continued: "This is also under the jurisdiction of the household department of the imperial court, and then part of it can be rewarded to meritorious heroes, and the other part can be gradually distributed according to the uniform land system!" ”

"Your Majesty, reward the meritorious hero, this minister has no opinion. But the scope of this hero is too small. The so-called reward heroes are only those high-level civil and military officials, and ordinary soldiers do not have this land at all. The land that ordinary soldiers had sacrificed their blood in exchange for was not available to them, but had to be handed over to the imperial court and then given to those who were born later according to the method of the uniform land system. This is not interesting enough, the people born later, they did not personally kill the enemy, and second, they did not contribute money and effort to transport, so the soldiers will inevitably be jealous in their hearts! People can get land without money or effort, but we can't get it if we don't pay or contribute. Isn't that just working for someone else? And the vast majority of those who were born later have nothing to do with those soldiers who went to the battlefield in person, so it is obviously unrealistic for a person to risk his life to fight for land for people who have nothing to do with him. Therefore, this is also the reason why ordinary soldiers don't like to expand their territory, because most of the land they have laid has nothing to do with them, who will be enthusiastic! Jingwen said.

"Well, there's some truth to that!" Li Shimin also agreed.

Jingwen continued: "Your Majesty, there are many people who want to obtain land, but now my Central Plains generation has adopted the uniform land system. Many wealthy families have no access to land. Then we might as well pre-sell those lands, except for a part of it to be distributed to ordinary soldiers, and then the rest can also be pre-sold to those wealthy people. We can pre-sell at six or seven percent of the market price, or even four or five percent, and then many businessmen and wealthy families I think will be tempted. As long as my Datang wins, then they can also get benefits. Can they not spend money? So, this is also a lot of wealth! ”

"Can you still pre-sell?" Li Shimin is really convinced of Jingwen's "deal".

"As for those ordinary gold, silver, jewelry, and antiques, they can all be auctioned! And usually these literary toys are antiques. Most of them went into the emperor's private pocket. But Your Majesty, this world is all yours, why do you care about these things! You can sell these seized things. The money was then converted into dividends, which were then distributed to those who contributed to the war effort. Those who contributed money to invest in the war can take out a part of it to invest in this dividend when the time comes! As for the emperor, you can take out a few precious things. Why take these things that you can't eat or drink, put them in the storehouse and wait for them to get moldy! Many ordinary tyrants can't collect a few vassals. Instead of making him moldy, it is better to turn it into real wealth. Then it was distributed to the people as dividends. ”

And after Li Shimin listened to Jingwen's words, he also suddenly realized that the war was so profitable! In the past, when there were wars, these spoils were given to those high-ranking officials, and they also went directly to the treasury. However, the common people could not directly obtain wealth, and most of this wealth also entered the homes of those dignitaries and nobles, and became the capital for the dignitaries to squander. As for the common people, they cannot get anything after contributing money and efforts, and this is the crucial reason why the common people oppose the war.

And now Li Shimin will tell the people in advance that these things that can be obtained in the future will be used as dividends, and then let the people contribute money and efforts as investment, and then dividends will be distributed according to the proportion of money and effort at that time. And this war, in fact, is a big "business" in the final analysis, and the military expenses invested and those military generals go to war, that is, sell labor, and then get dividends when the time comes. As for the wealthy people, even ordinary people, they can also invest in the war, and when the time comes, they will be counted how much they can gain, and dividends will be distributed according to the proportion of the money they have paid.

The military expenditure of this war is also an investment, and then it is to distribute the things that belonged to the dignitaries and nobles to squander in the past as dividends, so that the people can also get benefits. Instead of giving the dividends of these wars to those dignitaries and nobles for free, it is better to distribute them to the people, so that they can win the hearts of the people, and after the people get the benefits, they will continue to support the national war. In this way, the people used to have to pay for the war for free, but now it is transformed into an investment in the war, and they can participate in the dividends after the victory of the war with those dignitaries. This means that the people are no longer without benefits, and the dignitaries and even the royal family cannot enjoy the war dividends for no reason, and they must contribute or pay to support the war in order to get dividends.

In fact, this is to allow ordinary people to reap the benefits, so don't the people have to desperately support the war in the future? In this way, the people will also be more supportive of the country, so that the expansion of territory is no longer a thing that the people cannot afford, but a matter that allows them to obtain benefits.

"Okay, so how do you calculate the investment? This investment, as well as the efforts of the soldiers to wage war, how can the corresponding payment be calculated, and then how to calculate the dividends when the time comes? Li Shimin asked. (To be continued......)
