“How many docks are there in Sanzhou Wood Silver?”

A large-scale ceremonial warrior, Li Shimin, wearing treasure armor and holding a hard bow, looked at the endless sails from afar, then drew an arrow from the bucket, pointing at the estuary to the ships entering and leaving the port dock.

"There are three big warehouses and five small warehouses, a total of eight."

Ma Zhou was very familiar with this place. He had collected a batch of wool in Ji County, and the one who had the help was Li Keshi, the governor of the Youzhou Governor's Office.

"It's really fast."

After sighing, Li Shimin pointed to the North Canal that was inserted diagonally from a distance, "I remember that the North Canal is now allowed to enter and exit?"

"The main ones are grain ships, stone ships, wood ships and carnivorous ships."

"Youzhou has opened so many wool spinning factories. In recent years, Hebei and Henan have used Youzhou blankets. Why don't you need to ship them?"

"More blankets go to the south and north of the desert to make a bigger profit. Later, they are transported directly to Haizhou or Yangzhou, and it takes some lunch to walk from the South Canal."

"Going into such a big circle."

Li Shimin smiled and shook his head, suddenly pulled the bowstring, and with a bang, the arrow shot out quickly. With a puff, a mallard duck was shot on the head in the green reed marsh.

A headshot was shot with an arrow. Even if this kind of archery is placed in the army, it is a top-notch master.

The left and right guards whistled, and a black slim dog jumped out, took a few breaths, and then saw the black dog holding the mallard duck in his mouth.

"reward!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Shimin threw the hard bow in his hand, and the guard immediately rode his horse to catch it, but saw the emperor trot on his horse and stopped when he arrived at the ferry.

"There are more people coming and going in this area, and it's better to build a bridge."

"I think the bridge can almost start construction when I pass Jizhou."

Seeing that the emperor was in high spirits, Ma Zhou even said in a small way, "Why would Your Majesty give this unbuilt bridge a name?"

"I have a very meaning, Binwang has also learned bad things."

He laughed and cursed, pointed at Ma Zhou, but Emperor Li still crossed the horses and leaned against the river and said proudly, "This ferry was ordered by the emperor to build a bridge, so it should be called 'Tianjin Bridge'."

"Thank you His Majesty to give your name and choose a date to erect a stone and erect a monument for future generations to admire."

"You learned to flatter the Mengwu people, you are really perfect. Hahahaha..."

The fifty-year-old Li Shimin was more confident and conceited than back then. His arrogant domineering aura made the members convinced him, and he only felt that this was the case with a generation of emperors.

The name "Tianjin Bridge" was soon passed from Youzhou to the capital.

When people were wondering why the emperor suddenly had a nature that could not get along with the bridge project, a group of old men and young men in Hongwen Pavilion were all blushing and staring at each other with thick necks.

Even Chu Suiliang, who has always been subtle, was like a fighting rooster, erecting his slender neck, talking from time to time and drinking tea from time to time.

"If the court is short of money, how can we fight and ask the people to borrow it?"

"What if you don't borrow it? Just wait?"

"What's wrong with waiting?"

"What's wrong? Time is not waiting for me, Gong Kong. Everyone knows what the emperor means now. Those manors, as expected, were the old men who returned home to fight against the Han. The emperor saved a lot of money, but also saved such a great reputation. If it were in the early years, the Wude Dynasty would not be eliminated, what would be the use of this manor before the 17th and 18th year of Zhenguan? But now is different from the past, and the world is different."

"How can the affairs of the Fanbian be a long-term solution?"

"How do you talk about it in the same way?"

In Hongwen Pavilion, in addition to the scholars, there was also a fat man sitting there quietly and opening his mind. Li Tai thought in his mind that the court has no money now, and there is a sum of money among the people. It is enough for the lender to leave even if he doesn't say it. The most important thing is that the lender has a clean foundation and is considered a pillar of the country and a errand runner-up inside. The most important thing is that the lender is also a "country sage".

This money is not hot, what's the point if you take it?

But the fat man also knows one truth: whether money is hot or not is one thing. Whether the money is done with money is another thing.

Zhu Xueshi seems to be clamoring whether to borrow it, but in fact he is afraid of taking responsibility.

It is not scary to take money, what is scary is that you can’t do well after taking money.

How to calculate the crime and accountability? There will be no mistake in curing a "routine affairs" that can be done. How can Hongwenge and other "human geniuses" be blamed?

Do you really think that a generation of wise ministers is so easy to be a good person? The ability of "Fang Mou Duan" is not several times higher than that of these Hongwen Pavilion bachelors, but they can withstand pressure and take responsibility, which makes the emperor rely on it.

Although it is not possible now, one thing goes one by one, just as Chu Suiliang said: How can you talk about it in the same way?

The fat man suddenly felt that these Hongwenge bachelors who looked easy to talk were waiting for him to jump out and say that they could borrow, just borrow, don't be afraid...

After all, he is a prince who doesn’t even let go of the small loans and naked loans. In the eyes of the world, if this kind of money is placed in front of him, Li Tai, it is equivalent to "reward" and "dividends". If you take it, you will take it. Isn’t it fun to go out and roam?

Thinking of this, the fat man suddenly felt disgusted, as if he had eaten a bowl of maggots. After thinking about it, he got up and said goodbye first.

After finding a secluded place and attracting Du Chuke, Li Tai decided to ask him for his solution. After all, the one who came to him to talk about the title was Du Chuke.

The fat man thought about it, Du Chuke must have a solution in his mind.

"Chu Ke, what kind of way can be more fulfilled?"

"The king's meaning is to let the scholars from Hongwen Pavilion be easy to speak, right?"

"If there is no convenience, I'm afraid it won't work."

"Then... it would be better to ask the Ministry of War to ask the Ministry of Works to borrow some money, and the Ministry of Works to issue a debt note and borrow money to do a project. You can always find a reason for dredging the river channel in the capital, or renovating the East-west Road."

It is okay to borrow money to fight a war on a small scale, but now this is not a matter of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, but hundreds of thousands of yuan may still be millions. At that time, the court’s official documents will be revealed to the world, and when you see the words, you will actually borrow money to fight a war. It’s crazy!

The emperor can borrow money to fight, and the emperor can even borrow usury to fight, but the court cannot.

However, the imperial court borrowed money to carry out major projects instantly, and it was easy to accept. There was no place that was jealous of the court's dignity.

The emperor borrowed money to fight a war, which was the emperor's "ambition" and the passion of "achieve his merits in one battle". At most, it was a group of unlucky people who were cheated by the emperor, and they roared silently in their hearts.

But if the imperial court borrows hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to fight, it would be a bad luck to call for a Japanese dog, and even those who have nothing to do when they are full will be shouted together.

"Let the Ministry of War ask the Ministry of Works to borrow money?"

Li Tai's eyes lit up, "Good idea!"

"Don't be anxious, even if that's the case, you must report to Your Majesty first. This matter should be judged by the Holy One."

"Yes, yes, right, this matter is a first-class merit," Li Tai looked excited, and looked at Du Chuke with a look of excitement, "The scholars from Hongwen Pavilion helped the Ministry of War to borrow money from the Ministry of Works, and I think it would be possible to speak. The Ministry of Works asked the people that borrowed such money, and it would not be decent. In this way, they took care of them."

"Before the king reported to the emperor, it is best to communicate with the scholars of Hongwen Pavilion first, and then submit a joint memorial."
