Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

Wang Hongfu stood up and saluted and said:

"I don't know what the prince's instructions are, but I will do my best."

"First tell me about the current situation in the palace. I haven't paid attention to it for a long time."

Li Shen did not talk about the matter first, but asked Wang Hongfu to report on the work situation.

The palace now has too many properties, some of which Li Shen himself cannot remember.

There are also some things he told him to do.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Hongfu responded, and then took out a small notebook.

"I would like to report to the prince, the most profitable thing for the palace now is the glaze workshop, and the demand is huge, not only in the Western Regions, but also in the Tang Dynasty.

Although there is also colored glaze in the Western Regions, the quality is simply not comparable to ours.

But because the prince has told us, we have been controlling the production. "

"Well, the output must be controlled, but if the price rises, some quantities can be released appropriately." Li Shen nodded.

"Yes." Wang Hongfu took note and continued.

“The demand for other products such as wine and soap is increasing every year, and this year we have added a workshop to produce soap.

The cotton cloth has just been made and is being improved, and all the accounts have been handed over to the princess.

The demand for paper and books is also increasing. This year our prices have dropped by another 10%, so some are in short supply. "

"This is a good thing. It means that more and more people are studying in Datang. You can notify the paper mill and printing shop to add equipment and expand their scale.

But one thing to remember is that technology must be kept secret. It doesn’t matter if people in the country know about it, even if aristocratic families know about it, it doesn’t matter.

But we cannot let other countries know about the technology.

The price of paper purchased by foreign merchants tripled. If it was too expensive, they were asked to buy it from Maison. "

Li Shen has a very strong sense of protecting technology.

"What happened to the two cement roads we built?" Li Shen asked again.

"Back to my lord, the cement road to Luoyang will be built soon, and the other road in Goguryeo will not be built soon due to lack of materials.

However, if the city is to be completed this year, it will be completed in two years starting from next year. "

"Well, we must complete it as soon as possible. These two roads were obtained by raising donations. If it cannot be completed for a long time, it will have a great impact on the credibility of our Prince Ji's Palace.

Do you know that this will be detrimental to the future development plans of our Prince Ji's Mansion? "

"It's your lord, I will keep an eye on you personally."

Now that everything has been said, it's Li Shen's turn to talk.

Li Shen took a sip of tea and said to Wang Hongfu:

“From now on, Prince Ji’s Mansion’s plan to target the Lost Tribe will be stopped, and we must say to the outside world that this is just a misunderstanding.

And we need to take more care of the Lost Tribe. This is what I promised your Majesty yesterday, and it must be done. "

"Yes, I will give you the instructions immediately."

"One more thing, the hidden dangers in the north have been eradicated by me, and the palace's business in the north should also be restarted.

The Ashina tribe has made a lot of money in the past few years and asked people to open a market near the Ashina tribe.

They specialize in selling some valuable things. With so much money, they can't keep it all in their own pockets.

There is a part of me in this. "

"Your Majesty, if we resume trade, we will seize a lot of the Ashina tribe's business. Do you want to tell Ashina Chu to avoid misunderstandings?"

Wang Hongfu reminded Li Shen when he heard that he wanted to resume business in the north.

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? I just want to take back what belongs to me. He is satisfied with the strength of the army now.

As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, if I don't do something, how can I be worthy of my status? "

Li Shen said disdainfully that now that the Tang Dynasty was strong, they were willing to rely on it, but if the Tang Dynasty became weak in the future, they would not hesitate to join the rebel army.

"But Your Majesty, Ashina Chu is also a Duke after all, and is deeply trusted by His Majesty. And with the relationship between the noble concubine and the empress..."

In fact, Wang Hongfu really wanted to say that Ashina Zhong is your brother-in-law.

"Don't worry, I am helping him. He should know that his Ashina tribe has expanded five times more than it did a few years ago.

The number of tribes has exceeded 100,000, and there are many smaller tribes that want to be incorporated into it.

Do you think the court will allow him to continue to grow like this?

There is just no chance now. Once there is a war, ordinary people from their tribe will have to be sent to the battlefield as the vanguard.

The court is not as kind as this king. "

Li Shen leaned on the chair and stretched. Then stood up.

"Okay, just do what I tell you, and don't disturb me if you have nothing to do.

Go and get busy. "

After speaking, Li Shen walked towards the back house.

~~~~~ (Tomato novels are free to read.)

Zhi loses his thinking power, the Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty, the General of the Left Army, and the Duke of An. These titles should have made him high-spirited.

Let him lead the tribe to live a happy life.

But now he is really frowning and sighing at home all day long.

Just because his tribe is facing huge difficulties now, many tribesmen choose to leave and join other tribes.

There was no way, the life of his tribe and people was too hard, it was worse than before they surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

If all the tribes in the Eastern Turks were like this, it would mean that the Tang Dynasty had treated them badly.

But apart from them, every other tribe lived a very prosperous life.

Even the Hun, Husa and other tribes he personally recruited and surrendered fared better than the tribes he had lost.

The tribesmen only knew that merchants from the Tang Dynasty never did business with them or purchased their cattle, sheep and other special products.

But the people in their tribe don't know the specific reason.

Ke Zhi lost his mind but vaguely knew why.

But he had no choice. This was for His Majesty, and he had to bear the blame no matter how big it was.

This time it was really impossible, so he would ask Li Shimin for help. If he continued, his tribe would be disintegrated.

How could the tribesmen remain indifferent when looking at the prosperous lives of other tribes around them?

At this moment, Zhi Huan Si Li was entertaining a few colleagues at home. These people were all former leaders of the Turkic tribes.

Qibi Heli, Ashina Zhongshe'er, and Li Shen's eldest brother-in-law Ashina Zhong.

The most high-spirited one here is Ashina Zhong. In the past, his tribe could only be regarded as a medium tribe, which was much worse than Ashina Sheer's tribe.

But now Ashina Chu's tribe is the largest tribe.

"Everyone, the current situation of the Lost Tribe of Self-grasping has reached the edge of life and death. I invite you all to come here today because I wonder if you can help the Lost Tribe of Self-Grasping.

Or point out a clear way to someone, and I will be grateful again. "Zhi lost his mind and bowed his hands to several people.
