A quarter of an hour later, inside the side hall of the Chang’an Imperial Palace.

Li Shimin, who was still wearing a dragon robe, casually sat cross-legged on the master’s table.

And Li Ke, who was dressed in Xuan armor and still looked heroic and extraordinary without a helmet, sat on the guest chief.

This time was not a meal, but Li Shimin was heartbroken that Li Ke’s wheelbase was labored, so he arranged a banquet in advance at this time of more than nine o’clock.

There was only a banquet for two.

The palace maids came to the two with plate after plate of stir-fried dishes.

It is the stewed lamb belly invented by Li Ke, and the scrambled egg with bean sprouts.

Since Li Kei brought bean sprouts to this era, people in this era can eat vegetables in this season.

After all, things like greenhouses are still too far away.

Taking a closer look at the appearance of the dish, Li Kei smiled.

Because the plate is from the Li Family Restaurant.

Obviously, these are the meals made by his fiancée Li Qingying, it seems that Li Shimin is not inviting him to eat, this is completely Li Shimin rubbing his rice!

This discovery made Li Kei a little crying and laughing.

“The food at your Li Family Restaurant, as well as the wine, are all good.”

Li Shimin took the lead in picking up a piece of lamb belly, took a bite and then drank a sip of distilled wine, signaling the banquet.

This is a family banquet, naturally there is no need to persuade wine to persuade chopsticks.

“Thank you for my father’s appreciation, if we want to get the money out of the cellars of those landlords, we must provide enough attractive goods to maintain the normal flow of money and silver.”

Li Kei smiled and said: “As long as our productivity can always catch up with the imported money, we can keep prices at the appropriate level, and the Great Tang Dynasty is naturally safe and secure, so economic development is like sailing against the tide, and if it does not advance, it will retreat.” ”

“The 50 million spices you pulled back this time, as well as the capture of 30 million Guan, here is almost ten years of revenue from the Great Tang, how to use it? You know that what you hate the most when you want to come is to pile up money and not circulate. ”

Li Shimin asked with some expectation.

“Build roads, pay for work, continue to throw money, repair roads, and increase the supply of consumer goods, the entire economy of the Great Tang will be revitalized immediately, and my Great Tang will no longer need to rely on the land to watch the sky and eat.”

Li Kei said with a solemn expression.

“What consumer goods are you going to come up with?” Where are there so many projects in cash-for-work? Just by building roads? ”

Li Shimin frowned and asked.

“To repair, while we have money now, we want to overhaul, build a big road, a road that can accommodate four carriages running side by side, connect the governors of the states, and then use two horse-drawn carriages to drive side by side on the small road No. 1 to pave the roads of all counties in the prefecture and county.”

Li Ji said with a smile.

“Hiss… Such a project, no free labor, all have to be paid? You boy, this is not finished if you don’t make money clean! ”

Li Shimin suddenly gasped and his eyes widened.

“Isn’t that? In the future, there will be more materials, transfer everywhere, do not build roads, their materials will not be pulled out, our materials will not be pulled in, the entire Great Tang is so big, it is impossible to rely only on shipping to enrich coastal and riverside areas, right? ”

Li Kei said with a smile.

“Such a huge project, after your 80 million is used up, you will be able to withstand it in the future just by pulling goods from Nanyang?”

Li Shimin frowned and asked.

“I can’t stand it, as there are more and more spices, this thing will inevitably fall in price.”

Li Kei shrugged his shoulders and said very lightly.

“Then you also…”

When Li Shimin saw Li Ke’s appearance, he was immediately anxious.

In the next second, Li Kei took out a crystal clear, almost transparent thing and put it on the table.

Li Shimin’s eyes instantly widened and he waved his hand.

The Great Eunuch Wang De hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the transparent thing, and presented it to Li Shimin above the master’s table.

Li Shimin reached out and grabbed the ball, and it felt round.

This thing is the size of a fist, crystal clear, although it has no color, but under the sun, it reflects a colorful light.

“This… What is this jade-like thing that is not jade? ”

Li Shimin’s eyes widened majestically, and he asked in a lost voice.

“How much does Father think this thing is worth?”

Li Kei asked with a smile.

“Value … At least three or five hundred dollars…”

After Li Shimin finished speaking a little blankly, seeing Li Ke’s determined appearance, he asked in a word: “Can you make it in batches?” ”

“This thing is glass, and the children can completely manufacture it in batches, as long as it is kept secret, this thing will be limited in price, but within a hundred years, it can be used as wealth.”

Li Kezheng said: “In addition, although the children want to protect the male and female weaving inside the Great Tang and will not use mass-made cloth to hit the market of the Great Tang, we can dump it outward, and there are sweaters woven with wool spinning into thread, which can also guarantee the wealth of the Great Tang for hundreds of years.” ”

He had already planned to secretly build a large number of hydro and wind-powered spinning machines and looms in the Yin Kingdom, and as long as Lu Dashan made the finished products of the eighteenth-century things such as the Jenny loom that he had called out, he could immediately make cloth at a crazy speed.

Pulling these things back to the Tang Dynasty will have a huge impact on the traditional society of Tang men and women, but if they are pulled abroad, they will definitely be able to sell crazy.

After all, in this era, productivity is backward, and cloth is a very valuable thing, and it is just needed.

There is also wool, this thing is more advanced than the current linen I don’t know how many years, even after the volume of the price drops, the wool industry can support the economy of a country in Australia in the future, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is industrial gold.

As for avoiding this thing from impacting the original economy of the Tang Dynasty, it is also very simple, not made into Hanfu, only allowed to be made into a crewneck wool sweater, worn inside, and the outside is still a traditional linen or silk Hanfu Tang costume, then everything can be solved.

“There are also some basic rigid needs, such as sea fish, as long as the land transportation is smooth, the children can also come up with more efficient fishing trawls, with a large number of fishing boats, the children promise that after the road is opened, the people of the whole country, the military and civilians, can afford to eat dried fish, and my Tang will no longer be inferior to the nomads because of the lack of meat.”

Li Kei also threw out the concept of grain processing and preservation industry.

“You… How does your kid know so much? ”

Li Shimin never doubted Li Ke’s ability, but he couldn’t understand this originally cowardly son more and more.

“Father smiled, the sons and daughters had no friends before, and there were no extra things to do, they could only study the Jingshi Jimin set every day, so now it is just time to use the occupying country to experiment.”

Li Ke’s face replied without changing his face.

“Hmm… Well, what you said, is it another bypassing the Great Tang Dynasty, and our royal family does it themselves? ”

Li Shimin did not doubt Li Ke’s explanation, in fact, Li Ke’s did not come up with anything too ahead of the times, at least, not at present.

“Of course, we do it ourselves, only if the strength of the imperial power is greater than the court, the country can be stable for a long time.”

Li Kei replied with a smile.
