Film and TV: Starting from the marriage with Zhao Linger

The balance between a strong country and enriching its people is not the issue of local governance in Liaodong.

Because Liaodong was previously wild, Li Shouxi descended from the sky like a god, and his rule was similar to a combination of politics and faith, and was at the city-state level.

The governance of the empire is different. Li Shouxi needs absolute means and ruling policies.

Therefore, Li Shouxi has been thinking about how to change the conflict between strengthening the country and enriching the people.

Fortunately, a chaos caused great damage to the Yuan Qi of the aristocratic families, and they were unable to stop his reforms.

This was another purpose of Li Shouxi's overthrow and rebuilding the Tang Dynasty.

Otherwise, not to mention the obstruction of the aristocratic families, can he ascend to the throne of the emperor? Even if he really inherits the throne, he will inevitably become a puppet of the aristocratic families.

Was the Emperor of Tang weak in his ability? Was he foolish and extravagant? Did he ignore state affairs?

Everything is controlled by the aristocratic families.

"Your Highness, everything is ready. We can establish the country in a month!"

As the general manager temporarily appointed by Li Shouxi at this time, Shen Luoyan was highly valued by Li Shouxi from Chang'an all the way to Luoyi.

At least in terms of ability, there is no doubt.

For this reason, Shen Luoyan became Li Shouxi's spokesperson in Xindu.

The word "secretary" is not only a modern term.

As a beautiful and capable general manager, in the eyes of many people, Shen Luoyan is already Li Shouxi's woman.

“Then open the city gates to welcome diplomatic envoys from various countries, and allow a number of chambers of commerce to move in.

By the way, the Imperial Chamber of Commerce held an auction three days before the ceremony to sell off several plots of land and some businesses. In particular, the salt permit, the agency rights for colored glaze, and several secret recipes for specialty products.

There is no need to hide these things.”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Li Shouxi needed to make money at this time, or in other words, the construction of the empire required a lot of money.

During the grand ceremony, there will surely be many powerful and influential people gathering.

Salt permits and agency rights were sold to Tang Dynasty merchants, secret recipes were sold to envoys from various countries, and there were also some elixirs, treasures, and rare items.

Chapter 378: Picked up a new imperial capital for free?

"Wow, this new capital is so grand and has such a great layout!"

"Yes, this should be an enhanced version of the layout of Fengtian City. Horses are running on the central avenue, and there are pedestrian paths on both sides, as well as stalls.

Hiss, hiss, what is this place? The Imperial Chamber of Commerce? "

"The prefix of Empire? It should be your Majesty's property."

A huge building covering an area of ​​more than ten acres and fifteen or sixteen feet high appeared in front of everyone.

Not to mention that the whole building looks like a marble structure, with seven floors, the huge stone structure is full of majesty and atmosphere. At least in terms of momentum, it is much better than the wooden buildings around it.

The Imperial Chamber of Commerce is the monopoly chamber of commerce specially set up by Li Shouxi.

What was monopolized was nothing else but private salt, private iron and grain.

Sang Hongyang asked three questions, the core of "Salt and Iron Theory" - a strong country needs to strengthen centralization and accumulate money to ensure the strength of the empire, so the monopoly of private salt and private iron is inevitable;

Salt and food are the basis of all survival, and after the monopoly, there will inevitably be some price increases.

Therefore, the premise of monopoly is to set prices within a range acceptable to the people.

Salt is cheap, and Li Shouxi set a lower price. After all, it doesn't cost much to build a huge salt field directly on the saline-alkali land by the sea, not to mention that Qinghai Lake also has inland salt lakes.

So Li Shouxi also included grain in the monopoly.

In other words, by storing large amounts of food, the food price balance in the region can be maintained.

Once a disaster occurs in the empire, rapid rescue can be provided to prevent price spikes, etc. This is prepared to stabilize food prices.

Low grain prices hurt farmers, so the measures Li Shouxi adopted were to balance rather than suppress.

"The door is open? Let's go in and take a look!"

"go!"

Everyone entered the hall, the marble floor was clean and tidy, as clear as a mirror, and there were seats for resting around.

In the center of the hall was a circular counter, with several graceful girls inside, smiling at everyone, as if to say welcome.

"What are you selling here, young lady?"

"Everything is for sale here. If you want to rent or buy shops, land, or houses, you can go to the sixth floor. If you want to buy special products in the imperial capital, the second and third floors are specialized areas, and there are many vacant shops there. The fourth floor is a bulk transaction area, which is guaranteed by the Imperial Chamber of Commerce. The fifth floor is a valuables transaction area, which is also guaranteed by the Imperial Chamber of Commerce.

As for the seventh floor? According to the latest news from above:

Three days before the grand ceremony, His Majesty will hold an auction here. There are official salt permits, agency rights for top luxury goods, and business rights for brothels and casinos."

fizz

Everyone gasped when they heard this.

I didn't expect Li Shouxi to make such a big move.

But there are also many advantages. Large transactions are guaranteed by the empire, which can reduce a lot of trouble in doing business.

They had no doubt that the empire's strength could intimidate those aristocratic families.

Especially in terms of information channels, if you have something you need and other businessmen around you can provide it, it can be said to be mutually beneficial.

Likewise, large-scale transactions were under the Empire's nose, and in addition to taxation, the flow of these materials could also be monitored.

This is Li Shouxi’s real purpose.

Monitor the world.

"Let's go to the sixth floor!"

Most of them want to settle down in the imperial capital, or buy shops and do business.

What channel were you originally thinking of looking for?

I didn't expect that I could buy it directly here, which is why several service staff directly introduced the sixth floor.

They knew that once merchants came in, they would first visit the shops here.

Entering the sixth floor, everyone was stunned.

Countless lifelike and incredibly detailed sand tables appeared before their eyes.

The first thing you see is a huge bird's-eye view, which divides the imperial capital into dozens of areas. The sand table of each area is scaled down in proportion and is so detailed that it even features trees and greenery.

There is a detailed text description next to each sand table, and the rental and purchase prices are marked.

For example, shops on Central Street only have leasing rights, and the rent is three years at a time, with priority options when the rent expires; residential houses can be purchased directly, and have permanent ownership, and there are no repair and maintenance costs; there are also some plots of land that can only be purchased by high-ranking officials, located in the inner city area.

However, Li Shouxi is engaged in a money-making business, so the price is only the basis, and the subsequent rent will increase according to the market.

After learning the news, everyone's mouth twitched.

They didn't expect Li Shouxi to do this. They could imagine that these stores would definitely be sold at sky-high prices.

In addition, there are the mansions of those businessmen.

Ordinary businessmen cannot keep assassins or thugs, so Li Shouxi implemented a security system, with retired soldiers serving as regional security personnel, responsible for patrolling and guarding.

This is considered the earliest property.

This also makes many businessmen impulsive. Compared with the safety of their families, it is not too cost-effective to raise money for a meal every month to hire hundreds of strong security guards to protect their safety.

"Your Majesty is indeed a business genius!"

Imperial Court Ministry of Revenue.

At this time, the Minister of Finance and Minister of Revenue Li Quan, who was on standby, looked at the account book that had just been presented with an expression of disbelief.

Unexpectedly, in just one day, almost all the houses and shops in the imperial capital were sold out, with an income of more than tens of millions of gold, which was directly equal to the previous investment of Prince Yan's Mansion, and even made a lot of money.

In other words, they picked up an imperial capital and a royal court for free.

This is even a huge gold mine. One can imagine that the daily transaction volume of just one Imperial Chamber of Commerce is an astronomical figure, and the amount of tax collected is unknown.

This was picked up for free.

Thinking of this, Li Quan, the Minister of Revenue of the previous dynasty, was also very excited.

You have to know that he was the Minister of Revenue of the previous dynasty. He was always very calculative and wanted to spend every penny as if it were ten times the cost.

"Yes, the prince's methods are beyond our reach!"

In addition to finance, Shen Luoyan saw more.

For example, the security in various areas is security in name only, but veterans are also soldiers.

Once something happens, these soldiers will respond quickly, and with the surrounding towers, not even a fly can fly out, let alone those martial arts masters or those who rely on martial arts to commit crimes.

Similarly, transactions involving bulk commodities could not escape the eyes of the imperial court.

Once someone wants to rebel, bulk materials are necessary, and the imperial court can quickly cut off the other party's supply of materials.

Chapter 379: Founding Gift Package

Ding, congratulations to the host for signing in successfully, and you will be rewarded with a founding gift package——

帝皇套装、黄帝内经*1、帝国双璧*2、房谋杜断*2、昭陵六骏*6、千牛卫*1000、百战神机营*3000！

Founding of the Nation gift pack?

Upon hearing this, Li Shouxi suddenly realized that his system seemed to be still half open.

This time, the conditions for full activation have been met because of the Empire.

First of all, the emperor's suit, the original nine-chapter crown, has now become a twelve-chapter nine-claw golden dragon emperor robe. The bright and heavy dark yellow dragon robe is woven with a variety of golden silk, which has the ability to carry the golden dragon's luck and has infinitely strong defense; it is engraved with the Five Emperors' imperial seals - Mandate from Heaven, Longevity and Prosperity; the emperor's sword - Xuanyuan; the Nine-Dragon Jade Bi (He Shi Bi), Sui Hou Pearl; the Nine-Hook Coiled Dragon Jade Belt

Huang Di Nei Jing?

Before, Li Shouxi didn't dare to indulge in women. Even with the ability of practicing the Changsheng Jue, he only indulged in it in moderation.

At this time, with the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, especially the special exercises mentioned above, even Li Shouxi had to admit that this was specially prepared for him.

The two pillars of the empire - General Wei Qing and Champion Marquis Huo Qubing!

Fang’s plans and Du’s decisions—Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui!

Similar to the civil officials and brave generals, this time it is just an upgraded version of 060, and is more inclined towards imperial strategy.

Originally, Li Shouxi wanted to transfer Wang Meng over here, but now with Fang Mou Duduan, Li Shouxi no longer had to worry about his hometown.

After all, the north has always been the source of the court's stability.

If there is no chaos in the north, the court will not be afraid.

What's more, that place is the granary of the empire. Li Shouxi dare not be careless and destroy his own nest.

The two pillars of the empire are specialized in conquering the grasslands. At least from now on, the grasslands will not pose a threat to the south.

The Six Horses of Zhaoling are the six horses that Emperor Taizong rode when he conquered the world.

After the system is strengthened, it becomes a top-level dragon horse that can travel thousands of miles a day.

However, with the Hu Kui, Li Shouxi didn't think much of these mounts, so Li Shouxi planned to reward them to top generals such as the Two Pillars of the Empire and Yuwen Chengdu.

One thousand thousand cattle guards.

Different from the Jinwu Guard, Wuwei, or other departments, Qianniu Guard is the real master of the palace around the emperor:

There is one Grand Commander - a dual-realm Grandmaster, two Left and Right Commanders - at the Great Celestial Realm, four Thousand Households - at the Great Vajra Realm, twelve Hundred Households - ninth-rank Grandmasters, thirty-six general flags - quasi-ninth-rank, and the rest are all eighth-rank!

This is Li Shouxi's understanding of the hierarchy according to the Jinyiwei standard.

There are eleven ninth-rank masters alone, and two of them are in the Great Celestial Realm, and four are in the Great Finger Profound Realm and the Great Celestial Realm.

Even if a land immortal came, he would be wary of this power.

The Hundred Battles Divine Machine Camp is similar to the Divine Machine Camp of the Liyang Dynasty.

The weapon of the Hundred Battles Divine Machine Battalion is the Hundred Battles Divine Machine Crossbow, or rather the Hundred Battles Divine Machine Crossbow Cannon. It is an army that specializes in the use of firearms, with standard equipment such as the Divine Fire Flying Crow, the Five Thunders of the Heavenly Gang, and the Swarm of Bees.

Compared to the Shenji Camp of the Liyang Dynasty, the Baizhan Shenji Camp is the real Shenji Camp.
