Datang: At the beginning, I wanted to rebel against my father-in-law

Chapter 85 The Importance of Making Money!
He only discovered this matter when he left. Although Su Feng didn't say it explicitly, he was hinting to Li Shimin both openly and secretly.

If this matter finally gets out of hand, Su Feng will definitely help him solve it. This is the existence of Li Shimin's greatest confidence.

however.

His performance will make Changsun Wuji and others start to think wildly.

Li Shimin left from the Tai Chi Hall, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and others did not walk out of the palace directly, but deliberately waited and gathered outside.

"Gentlemen, what do you think of the train His Majesty mentioned?" Wei Zheng looked at Fang Xuanling and the others and asked seriously.

At the beginning, everyone remained silent, looking at each other without speaking.

Wei Zheng didn't urge them either, knowing that these people had their own little thoughts in their hearts.

"Your Majesty is not such an easy-to-deceive person. His ability to say what he said today shows that he must have seen the benefits of that kind of thing with his own eyes!"

"Your Majesty is not stupid enough to make fun of the entire Tang Dynasty, so there is a high probability that this matter is true!" Fang Xuanling said after a long silence.

"Is it important whether the train matter is true or not? Your Majesty has to spend a year's income from the national treasury. The current imperial court cannot afford such a toss!" Wei Zheng interrupted Fang Xuanling's words bluntly.

Yes!

The focus now is not on trains and railways, but on Li Shimin's use of the treasury.

If it is true as the other party said, then the national treasury will be completely empty. If there is a war at the border or a famine in the world at this time, it will completely collapse the court.

Once these things are handled carelessly, it may cause great trouble.

It's not like this kind of thing hasn't happened for hundreds of years, and every time the lesson is very painful, it's not like Wei Zheng doesn't want Li Shimin to make such a big mistake.

"The money is not a problem, let's all think of a way, and everyone can solve it for His Majesty within the scope of our ability, and this matter may be done!"

"Looking at His Majesty, he is determined to do this. It won't work if we stop it. The key is... Are trains and railways really that powerful?" Wei Zheng said in a low voice, squinting his eyes.

He goes further than anyone else thinks...

Wei Zheng's worries do exist. If things really develop like that, this incident will most likely lead to the collapse of the imperial court.

However, once this thing is successful, the benefits will not be as simple as a year's income.

It can be seen just from the Grand Canal opened by the previous dynasty that it brought them unimaginable benefits.

Now most of the imperial court's income is almost all related to the Grand Canal.

If the train that the emperor said really had that effect, then such benefits would be multiplied a hundredfold.

As for what Changsun Wuji said to think of his own way, even Wei Zheng understood what they wanted to do.

In terms of the positions of these people, it is actually very simple for them to get money. As long as they start from the aristocratic family, they can still solve a large part of the problem for His Majesty the Emperor.

The key is... what to do if you make a wrong bet?
Regarding this issue, the discussion is fruitless, after all, they have not done anything yet.

Under Wei Zheng's strong dissuasion, most people agreed with his idea.

They tried their best to solve the money problem for His Majesty the Emperor without causing huge turmoil.

……

Su Feng never imagined that less than a month after Li Shimin went back, the matter concerning the train and railway construction would be settled.

Regarding this point, he admired Li Shimin's ability very much.

To be able to accomplish this in such a short period of time without causing too much turmoil is not as simple as talking about it.

As for what Wei Zheng wanted to do, Su Feng didn't bother to care.

Although Wei Zheng is a bit annoying, he is indeed a good man for the country and the people.

Sooner or later, he will know his good intentions.

As long as you have money and experience in construction in the north, it will only be a matter of time before the north-south railway is opened.

The problem Li Shimin encountered this time made Su Feng fully understand one thing, that is, what he has done so far is far from enough.

Especially things like money...

to be frank.

Once upon a time, Su Feng was complacent and felt that he had done a lot so far.

Moreover, the money he had saved by doing so many things was enough for him and many people to spend in several lifetimes. At a certain period of time, he even started to slack off on making money.

But now it seems that his idea is so ridiculous and ignorant.

If you want to completely change the current era and let everyone related to you live a carefree life, it is not enough to rely on what you are doing now.

In terms of money...

Now if I help Li Shimin with all my strength, it will directly affect my development in the north.

Thinking of these, Su Feng couldn't help thinking of promoting the development of banknotes.

Back then, when I was in the village, I had a money printing machine and tried to promote the use of paper money, which was very successful at that time.

If he remembered correctly, he had explained this method to Li Shimin back then.

If I promote paper money in the north and use gold as a reserve, then the problem of lack of money may be solved.

This will not only greatly facilitate the use of the people, but also increase their income.

Once the bank is popularized, there will be a steady stream of income coming in every day. Once it is promoted throughout the Tang Dynasty, even Su Feng can't imagine what kind of scene it will be.

Su Feng understands the truth that money begets money better than anyone else.

Of course, Su Feng also knew very well in his heart that it was not easy to achieve this.

The reason why it went so smoothly in the village was because I had absolute prestige there, and everyone believed in me without hesitation.

however.

Not so here.
