Chapter 226
Looking at Zhang Gao's anxious look, Li Chengqian knew that something important must have happened, otherwise Zhang Gao would not have had such an expression.
"Tell me! Is something happened?" When Li Chengqian took Zhang Gao to the study, he looked at Zhang Gao in the next head and asked.
"Your Highness, I have summarized the specific situation here. Please take a look." Zhang Gao carefully took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian took the booklet handed over by Zhang Gao and quickly looked through it, but Li Chengqian became more angry and finally slapped the table with his hand.
"This aristocratic family is really seeking death. They ignore the lives and death of the people and want to use this to shake the Li family's country. Do they think that my Li family can't take the knife? But you think this is enough. Zhang Gao passed on my order to let farms in various places take out the inventory of grain, lower the grain price for me, and release all the Mingwei to me. Anyone who incites the people will be brought back for strict interrogation, and the investigation of vendors who raise grain prices will be increased. Anyone who evades taxes and colludes with officials and businessmen will be arrested, and the workshops under the princess will make every effort to squeeze the share of the various industries of the aristocratic family. Go." After saying that, Li Chengqian asked Zhang Gao to go down and do things.
After Zhang Gao left, Li Chengqian sat on the desk and sorted out what he had just said before taking the information he had written to rush towards the Tai Chi Hall.
When Li Chengqian arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, his father and all the civil officials under him were there, but they were all frowning, and there were several broken tea cups on the ground of the Tai Chi Hall.
"Father, aren't they just some clowns? Why are you so angry for them?" After Li Chengqian entered, he said to Li Shimin on the dragon throne!
"Boy, what do you know? If one of them doesn't handle this matter well, then the Tang Dynasty will be filled with wars. However, if you come here at this time, can you have any solutions?" Li Shimin sat on the dragon throne and looked at his eldest son asking in confusion. After all, he knew that his eldest son would not come easily without any trouble.
When Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and others heard the conversation between Li Shimin and his father and son, they all looked at them blankly. Even Li Shimin's last question made them puzzled. If they hadn't followed Li Shimin for a long time and knew his personality, they might have jumped out to refute it. After all, they all had no choice but to think that their talented advisers could do anything. What could a young man who was not as good as the champion?
"Father, I have a solution, but you have to guarantee that after I tell you, you can't beat me, nor can my mother beat me up. If you agree, I will tell you." Li Chengqian looked confident and said to his father who was now sitting on the dragon throne and was frowning.
"Boy, you really have a way. As long as you have a way, I will not blame you, but as long as the method is feasible, it can resolve this crisis. Then you can do whatever you want, except that, you know." Hearing that his eldest son really has a way, Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian excitedly and said, as for the last words, Li Shimin did not say it clearly. After all, the prince of a country always thinks that he will not be the prince. Even in front of his closest minister, he can't say that, so he can only play a mute fanatic with Li Chengqian.
Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui, who were standing beside him, heard that the prince Li Chengqian really had a solution, and they all stared at Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, you really have a solution. Let's talk about it quickly. I'm so anxious now." Although Du Ruhui didn't know what Li Chengqian did, now they really couldn't think of a solution. It would be good to listen to it. Maybe Li Chengqian's thoughts would give them some suggestions. With this idea, Du Ruhui said to Li Chengqian anxiously.
"Du Xiang, don't be impatient. When my father finished reading it, it's not too late for you to read it. We have agreed to the anxious Du Ruhui first said to him, and then he handed the materials he had written before to his father as he spoke.
Li Shimin, who took the materials, couldn't wait to look at them. Li Shimin thought the methods of attacking the aristocratic families were good in the materials, and even had a good analysis of the aristocratic families.
"Gaoming, your ingredients are good, but there is one thing, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, which can really support you. You must know that once these foods cannot stabilize the people of the Tang Dynasty, the final result will be that we want a family to compromise, and it may even cause turmoil in the Tang Dynasty." After reading it, Li Shimin handed the materials to Changsun Wuji and the others, and then spoke to Li Chengqian.
"Father, I know what you said, but I am very confident about potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn. After all, these crops are very high-yield, almost all crops with a yield of more than 7 stones per mu, and the yield of potatoes is as high as 20 stones per mu. This is just in mountains and other places with barren land. If it is in a fertile land, the yield is higher. So, you don't have to worry about not enough food. Let's put it this way, the stock of the farms in our various places, not to mention too much food, just let the people eat enough, it will be impossible to finish it in two years." Li Chengqian said on his own. When he finished speaking, he realized that his father and Changsun Wuji and others were looking at him.
"Gao Ming, what you said just now, but really, what's going on with those farms?" Li Shimin opened his eyes and looked at Li Chengqian and asked.
"Of course it's true. I can't lie to you. As for the farm, you must remember that I asked you for a place two years ago and secretly trained new recruits everywhere! After all, there was no war at that time, so I asked someone to plant a large number of potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn." Li Chengqian said to his father with a little embarrassed.
"It turns out that you and I were doing this at that time, but I really want to know that since you know that these crops have such high yields per mu, and you got them a few years ago, why don't you take them out, but hide them like this, tell me why?" After hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin stared at Li Chengqian with a gloomy expression and asked.
"That, this, I..." Li Chengqian was asked this and didn't know what to say.
