I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Of course, it is to be honest and follow the established requirements, not to seek merit but to be free from fault, and just do your own duty well.

Zhang Nuo just thought about it for a while and realized that he had actually come to a misunderstanding. In fact, his biggest hole card was not the system that was used less and less nowadays, but the education and information he received in later generations.

After all, those familiar systems and rules of later generations, which were not put forward after repeated revisions, and which can persist in the case of such developed commerce in later generations, naturally have a reason for their existence.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo simply didn't bother to think about it, and directly said to Li Shimin,

"Lao Li, if you want to speed up Datang's infrastructure construction, then don't let private capital participate, because this is actually your greatest advantage!"

Li Shimin blinked his eyes, a little confused,

"What do you mean? What is my greatest advantage!"

Zhang Nuo replied angrily,

"Of course it is rich! Now whether it is the treasury of the Ministry of Households or your own internal funds, where is there a shortage of money? Why do you have to bring in private capital? Is their money better than yours? "

Li Shimin still didn't understand. He knew he was rich, and he also knew that the revenue and expenditure figures of the treasury had been increasing in recent years, but what did this have to do with the acceleration of infrastructure construction.

Zhang Nuo looked at Li Shimin's bewildered look and was speechless, but it's normal to think about it. After all, even though the Tang Dynasty is developing like a hurricane, no matter whether it is the court or the people, they are still a bit at a loss. They are all moving forward by instinct.

So Zhang Nuo also figured it out, so let's point it out directly, and Lao Li would probably faint if he went on.

"Lao Li, to put it bluntly, what I mean is very clear. Whether it's the treasury or internal funds, there is no shortage of money. It can even be said that no one can compare with you in terms of money!"

"The reason why you feel that the speed of these constructions has been unable to increase is because what you lack is manpower and teams, not money!"

"Then it will be easy after you figure it out. The prosperity of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. Since we have money and want to do something, shouldn't it be enough to spend money?"

"Think about it, since businessmen want to make money, who else is richer than you? Then since you have money, why don't you throw money at them?"

Li Shimin was a little moved when he heard this, but he felt that he had to suppress it, and he couldn't understand it too well. Zhang Nuo almost laughed out loud at the feeling of frowning and being suppressed.

"We can get things done with money? What if what they do is not in compliance with the rules?"

When Zhang Nuo heard Li Shimin's words, he knew that he was completely moved, so he patted him on the shoulder very definitely and said,

"If you have money, you are the uncle. First discuss the rules and price, and then pay part of the money for what you do. If you don't do it, you will have no money. Do you think they will do it?"

Chapter 952 The eldest grandson old fox is here

Zhang Nuo's bad idea opened the door to a new world for Li Shimin. He really didn't expect to use money to "seduce" those businessmen to participate in infrastructure construction.

But after thinking about it carefully, the more I feel that this thing seems to be really capable, money, the most important thing in the treasury is money.Of course, he has no shortage of money in his own money.

After all, the national treasury has to support the operation and various expenditures of the entire country, but the expenditure of internal funds is much smaller, but many industries that make money in the market today actually have royal figures behind them, and they are all money.

Not to mention that there is such a financial killer as the Datang Royal Bank. The funds deposited in the bank are now frightening to death.

Therefore, in terms of financial resources, Lao Li really beat all kinds of dissatisfaction.

If the work can be done with just money, then Li Shimin is naturally willing, because it costs money for him to transfer the manpower from the Ministry of Industry and hire those coolies to work, let alone the materials and so on. It was purchased with money.

Thinking about the small money in his small treasury, and then thinking about the huge amount of money in the national treasury, Li Shimin instantly felt that his back was really tough.

He didn't frown anymore, and he didn't suppress his eyebrows that wished to fly from the eyes to the top of the sky. He jumped up and shouted,

"Someone is here, Mr. Xuan Changsun, tell him to come here quickly, and say that I am calling urgently!"

When Zhang Nuo heard this, well, this is the rhythm of dragging the eldest grandson and the old fox to directly set things down. It was originally agreed that he would hide in the palace for a few days to avoid the limelight, and he would meet at Xiaochao in a few days. It was discussed on this matter, but now the situation seems to be settled directly.

Don't think that Zhang Nuo is scaremongering, just think about it, as long as Zhang Nuo comes up with a passable solution, based on the trust Li Shimin and Changsun Laohu have in Zhang Nuo, it will definitely pass.

But if the three of them have already passed, do they still need to go to the Xiaochao meeting to discuss it?

In such an era of feudal imperial power, when the emperor and the top few people have decided on something, there is no power to question and overthrow it, and they don't even have the qualifications to beep a few words.

Zhang Nuo has nothing to say now, anyway, after the eldest grandson, the old fox, will definitely have to say it again, so it's a fart now, it's better to wait and talk about it later.

Moreover, Changsun Laohu's current office is in the imperial palace, and it's not too far to get there by bicycle, so it's better to take the opportunity to drink tea, anyway, it will definitely be a waste of saliva later.

That's right, talking about bicycles is ridiculous. Since the bicycle factory was established, it has basically never had to worry about sales.

Basically, there is only one thing in the whole bicycle factory up and down, and that is to increase production.

Especially after the bicycle factory launched the magic tricycle, it was crazy. After all, the bicycle just launched was mainly a means of transportation. Although it could also transport goods, it was not particularly convenient after all.

But the tricycle is different, it is obviously for carrying goods or people.

Especially among those wealthy families, who hasn't kept a few master craftsmen with good craftsmanship, directly through their own or a friend's bicycle factory shareholder status, get a few tricycles home in advance, and call a bunch of people to refit them immediately.

In just a few days, I immediately changed a three-wheeled tricycle that spit out the goods into a luxury customized three-wheeled car that can't be seen at all.

To be honest, when Zhang Nuo saw the rickshaw modified by them at the Lantian clubhouse, his jaw almost dropped in fright.

I really admire the ability of the craftsmen in these people’s homes. They can really make a fuss. Let’s not talk about converting the open cargo compartment into a chair with cushions and adding a cover to the compartment. The key is that after the entire transformation is completed, when Zhang Nuo sees it I didn't even recognize that it was a modified tricycle produced in my own factory.

Really, if it weren't for the three unique wheels at the bottom that can't be changed to reveal the stuffing, I guess Zhang Nuo really wouldn't recognize it, especially when there are several "modified cars" in front of him, Zhang Nuo himself has Plant the illusion that you are a local turtle.

An inappropriate example of that scene at that time was that Zhang Nuo's family produced Santana, but he happened to see a lot of Shenhao who was not bad at money and had top-notch technology in his hands, so he abruptly changed this broken car. It has become a luxury car worth millions, and it is at the level of Maybach and Rolls-Royce.

Zhang Nuo, who is used to all kinds of world situations, can be surprised in this way, which shows how amazing this modification is.

So how could Li Shimin, the low-key student representative of Shenhao, fall behind in this respect? He has a car from Zhang Nuo to travel by himself, but he is not the only one who needs to run around in the palace.

At least those big bosses who have offices in the palace for a long time need such a thing, let alone those servants who run around in the palace to report messages.

As a result, a large number of bicycles and modified tricycles appeared in the palace. Not to mention, this really made the operation efficiency of the entire palace much higher.

With the means of transportation, and the fact that they are not far away, Changsun Wuji's arrival will naturally be fast.

Although he didn't know why Li Shimin called him here in such a hurry, when he came in and saw Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo sitting there smiling and drinking tea and chatting, he felt relieved immediately. tone.

It's okay, as long as the two big bosses don't make any troubles, it doesn't matter, he can handle the rest.

It is not to blame Changsun Wuji for making such a fuss, but actually there is an unspeakable tacit understanding in the hearts of the top officials in the Tang Dynasty, that is, as long as there is no quarrel between His Majesty and King Qin, it will not be a big deal.

The influence of these two people is really too strong, one is the supreme emperor and the other is the prince who has reached the extreme in terms of financial resources, fame, people's support and military spirit, and has even committed a taboo for a long time.

If these two quarreled, it would not know how much shock it would bring to Datang.

But as long as these two people don't make trouble, it won't be a big deal, and it doesn't even need these two people to come forward, everyone can discuss and get things done step by step.

After all, today's Tang Dynasty needs money, money, food and food. The national power is booming, not to mention the military power is sweeping all over the world. Everyone is actually writing a new chapter now, because any previous dynasty is not as good as it is today. Come gorgeous.

And these two in front of him are the biggest support behind all this!

Chapter 953 Zhang Nuo's God's Arrangement

When Li Shimin saw that Changsun Wuji had arrived, he was not very polite, they were all old brothers who came together, even though he knew that Changsun Wuji had his own thoughts, but he chose to turn a blind eye.

In Li Shimin's view, it is normal that no one is perfect. If a saint-like figure really appears, then Li Shimin has to beware. The head of the family, thinking about the development of his own industry and wanting to support his juniors, is completely understandable.

Of course, this is also based on Li Shimin's strong self-confidence in himself. He firmly believes that no one in the entire Tang Dynasty can do anything in his hands except Zhang Nuo. up.

Li Shimin waved at Zhangsun Wuji, and Zhang Nuo just nodded, as they were old acquaintances, so there was no need to come to court for such a more private occasion, he was so tired.

After the maids and servants who were waiting nearby served Changsun Wuji good tea, Li Shimin began to introduce the reason for calling Changsun Wuji over.

Changsun Wuji was overjoyed when he heard it, and he didn't bother to restrain himself, so he chuckled at Zhang Nuo, making Zhang Nuo's goosebumps rise from the laughter.

No wonder he was happy. He could see the benefits of this method. First of all, as long as this method is implemented, the infrastructure construction of Datang will definitely speed up, because this is considered to be using money to leverage the resources of merchants and various big families.

Don't look at the fact that the Tang Dynasty has developed so much that it is full of flowers and flames, and the treasury and internal funds are even more full. The five surnames and Qiwang who used to be famous throughout the Tang Dynasty have long since become ordinary wealthy families.

But it would be a big mistake to ignore the power of the people just because of this.

Even conversely, the influence of the former wealthy families in the folks has not only not decreased, but has grown.

After all, their previous accumulation was too deep. This accumulation is not only wealth, but also the accumulation of local influence and talents.

To put it bluntly, because of the rapid development of Datang and the emphasis on and support for commerce and manufacturing, if these families can really put down their face and work hard, it will actually make the family a higher level.

The old "imperial power does not go to the countryside" is not a joke. In many places, especially in some remote and remote places, the so-called emperor and court are not as good as the local squires, even ordinary squires. What's more, what about those rich families who have really taken root in the local area?

From this, it is conceivable how much energy these people will generate once their business passion erupts.

In fact, the top group of people in the Tang Dynasty understand this point in their hearts. This is why Li Shimin wants to suppress their power in the court and vigorously support the poor families. If there is no new power to rise, then these wealthy families , it is completely unstoppable in Datang.

Therefore, driving these people out of the court has become the consensus of everyone in the court. Don't think that many officials are related to these wealthy families and they will open the door for convenience.

To be honest, any officials who have a bit of brains and ambitions to climb up are not happy that these wealthy families have too much influence in the court, why?

Afraid!If such a monster appeared, wouldn't it be up to them to push for promotion?

Wouldn't their daily achievements and hard work be in vain?As long as we have a good relationship with them and get close?

But in this way, they are still a fool, especially those who have finally entered the officialdom, how could they not know that those wealthy families are naturally superior, and they don't take them seriously at all. If this really makes them rise, Then they can't mix.

Therefore, suppressing the rich has become the consensus of everyone.

Having said that, it is precisely because of this that these giants really let go of their airs. On the one hand, they are intensively cultivating locally and expanding their influence, and on the other hand, they are also trying to forge ahead in other areas as much as possible.

Changsun Wuji is also very aware of the current situation, so he absolutely agrees with the plan of using money to mobilize civil power.

However, he did not agree without grounds, but raised his own doubts,

"Your Highness, do you think that if we give money to those people, can they do a good job? Will it become worse than before?"

In fact, Changsun Wuji's question is also selfish. As the chief assistant, he naturally hopes that Datang can develop rapidly, but as the patriarch of the Changsun family, why didn't he realize that there is a big opportunity here?

That is, if he knew the news in advance and prepared well, then this deal would definitely satisfy the eldest grandson's family.

The most important thing is, what is the most used in railway construction is steel, and Changsun's family is the biggest steel dealer in the entire Tang Dynasty, if he accepts this deal, wouldn't it be left and right? On the right hand, there is an extra profit for nothing?

Zhang Nuo didn't expect the old fox Changsun to have so many inner dramas. He thought that the old fox Changsun was devoted to the public, so he quickly explained,

"That's it. We're not saying that it's enough to explain the whole thing in general. First, we need to make an assessment of the project, calculate how much money it will cost, and how long it will take. The second step is to give it to others A reasonable profit!"

"Then we need to start publicity. Only when the publicity goes out will everyone know that there is a piece of fat here, and they will find a way to grab it!"

"At the same time, we have to establish a monitoring mechanism. We can't leave it alone in the future and let them do it. Therefore, someone has to supervise their operation, and even to avoid corruption caused by bribery after long-term contact. Well, we need to have a rotation mechanism!"

"Of course, the most important point is that when we are all ready, we will notify all interested parties to bid somewhere. The so-called bidding means that we announce the details and requirements of the project, and then give time for all parties to discuss , and then they give a price and time!"

"In the end, we choose the one that best meets the requirements to sign a contract, and then send people to supervise, check and accept, and pay money according to the rules! This is the complete process I think!"

"With this method, we can transfer the manpower of the court to more important places!"

Li Shimin and the eldest grandson, the old fox, were dumbfounded when they heard Zhang Nuo's bang bang bang bang. Fuck it, there is so much knowledge in it, what the hell are you thinking!

Chapter 954

In fact, Zhang Nuo's idea is really nothing to future generations. Isn't it just a very common project bidding procedure, no one seems to know it.

But in this era when commerce is extremely scarce and even administrative methods are very rough, that is a magical skill, and it has really helped a lot.

Zhang Nuo didn't know what other people were like, but in his opinion, there was really nothing to show off. These things were created bit by bit by the masters of later generations, and he just plagiarized them. Complacent, but there is no need to be proud, after all, it is not my true ability.

Moreover, Zhang Nuo is very clear about how dirty the so-called bidding process is, and all kinds of things can happen in such a strict bidding process in later generations. I can't tell how many things will happen.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo very seriously told all the rules, rules and arrangements about bidding that he remembered in his mind.

He didn't worry about whether the two people on the opposite side could remember, because there was always a servant next to him who was in charge of recording the content of their conversation, as long as he said anything, it would be recorded here.

If it was in the past, he might not be used to it, but after staying in Datang for a long time, he has gradually become accustomed to this kind of life.

Li Shimin and Changsun Laohu had no other thoughts at this time, they just focused on understanding the knowledge here first, and they saw this matter very seriously.

Not to mention that if the railway construction can follow this process, it will prove that other infrastructure construction can also follow this process.

This is very important to Datang, especially in terms of road construction. Datang now clearly understands what it means to "build roads before getting rich". Today's Longyou side is because of a newly built official road , the economy has developed vigorously.

However, Longyou is not the only one that needs to develop and build roads in the Tang Dynasty. To put it bluntly, there is no serious road in the entire Tang Dynasty except for this new official road to Longyou.

It wasn't that the court didn't want to repair it before, but that it couldn't mobilize so many manpower. At the same time, there was a shortage of materials. After all, the gap in professional talents was not so easy to fill.

At present, Jingshi University Hall and Lantian College are speeding up their recruitment and training, but the supply of engineering majors is still in short supply. Zhang Nuo even imagined that if the news of the large-scale bidding for Datang's infrastructure projects is released, the graduates of these majors may will be tighter.

But to see that kind of scene, Zhang Nuo, the person who founded the Datang higher education system, must be very happy in his heart.

After chatting with Lao Li and the eldest grandson Fox about the bidding for the project, Zhang Nuo wanted to go to the nearby palace to rest. In the winter, cats should be comfortable in a warm place.

But before he had a chat with Hongyu in the palace, Lao Li arranged for a servant to come over in a hurry to call for someone.

And when he reluctantly walked into the palace where he was chatting just now, he found that it was almost full now.

Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, Li Jing, Li Xiaogong...

Fortunately, it was the Chinese New Year, and everyone came back to report on their work and celebrated the New Year at home, so these people could get together so well, otherwise you would really not see so many military leaders under normal circumstances.

Zhang Nuo was quite happy to see so many acquaintances at first, and planned to say a few witty words, but when he saw everyone's serious and silent expressions, he swallowed everything he was about to say in an instant.
