When Emperor Jing Xing didn't come in, he cursed loudly, but he didn't punish him to face the wall, nor did he ask him to kneel under the ancestral plaque.
Liu Yu's heart relaxed a little, and he felt a little more courageous. He boldly said: "Do business."
"Doing business?" Emperor Jing Xing was shocked when he heard this.
Whether it is Daqian or the countries in the four directions, there are clear class divisions, including scholars, peasants, industry and merchants, and clear social hierarchies.
Although this businessman made a lot of money, he was not engaged in production and was greedy, so his status in various countries was not very high.
This is the common impression everyone has on merchants.
But after Emperor Jing Xing heard this, he was not angry, just surprised.
After all, no matter how bad it is to be in business, it is still better than studying how to go to war all day long.
The emperor is the king of a country and is the key to the stability of the country. How could he go to the battlefield in person unless it was a time of critical life and death?
If he is captured by an enemy general, if he is not good enough, the entire country may be destroyed.
In comparison, doing business is not really a hazard.
"What's the business for?"
"Earn money."
When Emperor Jing Xing heard this, his face darkened and he almost lost his temper.
"What's the point of doing business if you don't make money? I'm asking you what do you do if you make money?"
"Buy iron ore, make weapons, buy grain and grass, recruit soldiers, train day and night, and fight to the death with the traitors of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!" Liu Yu's face was full of excitement!
Yes, that's why he wants to make a lot of money!
In addition to wanting to impress Emperor Jing Xing, war also requires money!
If he wanted to train a truly elite force, it would be impossible without money.
"Father, over the years, Beiyuan has become increasingly powerful, and their cavalry has become even more brave and good at fighting. One is worth ten."
"Why don't you go south and seize the land and mountains of our Han family?"
"Because the Northern Yuan Dynasty was also in internal strife! The Aguda, Wanyan, and Tuoba tribes were arguing endlessly, so they stopped going south. But every autumn, troops came to plunder some grain and grass."
"But once they free up their hands, the three countries bordering the Beiyuan territory may be in danger."
"Western Qin has always used military force to strengthen the country, and Western Qin's cavalry is even more famous among the countries around the world."
"Da Chu is the country of the Son of Heaven, and its national power is far stronger than that of the vassal states."
"Compared with these two countries, our national strength is weak and our military is insufficient."
"Father, you should have made plans in advance!"
Facing his professional field, Liu Yuye became more and more enthusiastic, but he didn't notice at all that Emperor Jing Xing's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"These should be things that the Ministry of War and I should consider, as well as the civil and military affairs of the entire dynasty!"
"The civil servants will discuss with me and come up with the most appropriate and safest method, and leave it to the Ministry of War to coordinate and deploy troops and generals to defend the enemy from outside the country."
"Instead of letting you, the crown prince, ponder it in private here. You also stole the treasures of Ganlu Palace and claimed that it was for the sake of your family, country and the world!"
"If this matter spreads, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"The people will say you are a thief! The dignified prince is a thief! Where will the majesty of the royal family be then?"
When Liu Yu heard this, he realized that his father's anger was rising again. He immediately lowered his head, buried his head in his chest, making a quail shape, and remained silent.
Emperor Jing Xing also realized that he was getting angry again as he spoke.
I don't know why, but he has always been kind to other people.
But when facing this son, he always gets angry for no reason.
Probably...this is father and son.
Emperor Jing Xing sighed, calmed down a little bit of his anger, and asked, "What kind of business are you doing? You must have sold a lot of money for the "Shanhe Sheji Tu". What kind of business can use such a lot of money?"
"Grain business." Liu Yu was much more secure this time. He would answer whatever he asked and never say anything more.
"Grain business? Buy at low price? Sell at high price? Where to buy it and where to sell it?"
"No, we don't buy food, we make it ourselves."
"Making your own food? Can't you farm?"
Emperor Jingxing was a little pleased. Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, these farmers were ranked behind the scholar-bureaucrats, which shows how important agriculture is.
If the prince could care about farming, his efforts would not be in vain.
But who would have thought that Liu Yu shook his head and said: "It's not about growing food, it's...how should I put it, anyway, it's about making food!"
"Lao Li said that he can make food that will not spoil. When the time comes, he will sell this food to the soldiers who are going to the sea. If the soldiers eat this, they will not have to eat rotten and smelly food, and they will not get sick."
"Old Li? Who is he? Li Changkong?"
"Yeah." Liu Yu nodded honestly.
When Emperor Jing Xing heard this, he frowned immediately.
After what happened last time, his impression of Li Changkong had greatly changed.
This is a talented and capable child, a fine piece of jade.
As long as you are good at carving and teaching, you will definitely be able to become a great talent in the future and become a great talent responsible for the great cadres.
That's why Li Changkong was named Hu Benlang General to be compatible with the affairs of East Palace Young Master Zhan.
Such a seal cannot be said to be taken lightly.
But...it seems now that no matter how talented Li Changkong is, he is still just a child, prone to unbridled imagination and taking things for granted.
The disease at sea has troubled the countries in all directions for decades, even hundreds of years!
In the past hundred years, how many amazing and talented doctors have been produced?
They can only alleviate it, how dare you, a young boy, let alone solve it?
It's really... whimsical.
But it's good to have the heart to share the worries of the imperial court.
It's just that the way things are done is too unsophisticated.
It seems that more training is needed!
"Do you believe it when he says he can do it? Do you believe it when he says he can fly into the sky?"
"Believe it! Old Li will not lie to you."
"Huh?" Emperor Jing Xing was furious: "You are the king and he is the minister."
"No matter how close the monarch and his ministers are, they cannot trust without a bottom line. Otherwise, they will raise powerful ministers!"
"Understandable?"
Hearing this, Liu Yu nodded, as if he understood something: "But you don't know, Father, Lao Li is different. If he says he can do it, he will definitely do it."
Emperor Jing Xing finally became angry after hearing this.
This is my stupid son. If he is sold by someone in the future, I am afraid he will have to help others count their money.
"How can I entrust the country and the country to you after a hundred years when you look like this?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu buried his head in his chest again, making a trembling quail posture, and did not dare to speak.
When Emperor Jingxing saw this, he was furious: "Rotten wood cannot be carved!"
"You are not allowed to step out of the East Palace within this month!"
"Think carefully about where I went wrong!"
"For so many years, I have always taught you by words and deeds, but in the end, you don't look like a prince at all!"
After saying that, Emperor Jing Xing waved his sleeves and left.
