Wow.
The officials were in an uproar.
Subconsciously he looked at Zuopushe, Fang Xuanling, the minister in charge of taxation.
Fang Xuanling was expressionless.
On the dragon throne, Li Shimin also had an expressionless face!
Why did he support Wei Shuyu's mercantile strategy?
Just because of a minister's advice?
No……
That's because of profit!
Only when the people and the court can win-win, will he let Wei Shuyu speak out in the court!
This is the most important reason why he strongly supports business development!
"Your Majesty, taking Jiangnan as an example, I think the mercantile strategy can be implemented!" Yu Shinan bowed.
"Yu Aiqing is interested."
Li Shimin responded and immediately looked at the ministers: "What else do you have to say?"
At this time, everyone who should come out has basically come out.
Moreover, Yu Shinan used facts to prove the benefits of the mercantile policy, so why should others object?
But reality is so strange.
Someone else stood up, and he was an old acquaintance... Changsun Wuji!
"Your Majesty, the mercantile strategy may be good..."
While speaking, Changsun Wuji glanced at the ministers: "But the problem is that it is difficult to implement this policy."
Um?
Li Shimin frowned and quickly reacted...
The opposition from the courtiers was too fierce.
The Tang Dynasty still needed ministers to govern, and all the ministers held objections. Even if the pro-business policy passed the court meeting, it is estimated that his subordinates would disobey it.
The only one who supports is Yu Shinan!
Of course, Yu Shinan also has his own faction.
But the power of that faction in the court was really scumbag.
I usually exchange calligraphy, write and draw.
Yu Shinan himself is even older and has half his foot in the coffin.
His second proposal was of no use except for adding another voice of approval in the court...
"Your Majesty, I feel that the pro-business policy is of great importance and we can discuss it again."
Cui Zhi of the Boling Cui family came out and bowed.
If you can't argue, why can't you delay?
After procrastinating and procrastinating for a long time, this matter will naturally be settled.
"I second the proposal."
"I second the proposal."
After Cui Zhi finished speaking, all the ministers bowed.
For a time, the court was filled with voices of support, and all the courtiers bowed to Li Shimin, unwilling to straighten up for a long time.
Li Shimin's expression suddenly darkened.
This is the court meeting. Even if he is the emperor, he will not be offended by public anger.
"Shuyu, do you have anything else to say?"
At this point, Li Shimin has no choice.
The ministers put pressure on him and forcibly issued decrees, which would only be counterproductive.
In fact, his original intention was for Wei Shuyu to stand up first and give the officials a warning.
After the ministers were mentally prepared, they were less disgusted to accept it.
Then he gathered a group of courtiers, and then Wei Zheng proposed...
Once the bill is passed, it will be implemented smoothly.
Otherwise, there would not be a situation where confidants such as Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling were opposed.
Who would have thought that Wei Shuyu was so fierce...
All the ministers were speechless.
This sudden scene made Li Shimin confused.
"Your Majesty, I think the objections of the ministers are not important."
Wei Shuyu bowed and replied.
After his words fell, he immediately attracted the attack and annihilation of the ministers.
"Be bold!"
"presumptuous!"
"Are you insulting an important official of the imperial court?"
The ministers asked sternly one by one.
However, Wei Shuyu was not affected at all and just listened to him continue to talk...
"Yesterday, my father said something to me..."
"What he said was your Majesty's. He feels deeply ashamed and cannot share your worries..."
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of the officials.
They were curious about what words could stump Li Shimin and Wei Zheng.
"Your Majesty said: Is there a strategy that can save the world from disaster?"
"I want to say: No!"
"But I have heard a saying called: Man can conquer heaven!"
"Whenever a natural disaster occurs somewhere, the pressure is entirely on the court."
"Everything will be resolved by the court."
"Does Your Majesty think so? Do you think so too?"
After a pause, Wei Shuyu raised his head and looked at Li Shimin.
Looking directly at the king may seem disrespectful.
But Li Shimin couldn't care about this at this time. He frowned and asked, "Shouldn't it be right?"
"When the imperial court collects taxes, it is natural to protect the people."
Wei Shuyu nodded: "But has your Majesty considered how long it will take for the court to receive the news?"
"How long will it take for the imperial court to mobilize relief supplies and send them there?"
"Although the imperial court has taken action, don't you think the efficiency is a bit slow?"
As soon as he said this, Li Shimin frowned again.
He thought about this again and again and felt that it made sense.
But ancient communications were backward, and he couldn't think of any better way.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
"You mean mercantile business can solve this problem?" Li Shimin asked.
"I can't guarantee that."
Wei Shuyu shook his head helplessly: "But I also heard a saying called..."
"A difficult one, P Plus support!"
"When a certain place is in disaster, businessmen, people, and government officials from all over the country all come to help. Can your Majesty imagine that magnificent disaster relief scene?"
hiss……
Li Shimin took a breath.
Just thinking about this scene makes my blood boil.
"Businessmen, people, and government came together to provide disaster relief and minimized losses, and the court followed."
"With a series of cooperation, the disaster is actually not terrible!"
"Money, houses, and fields have been lost, but as long as the people are still alive, they will soon be restored to their original state."
All the ministers fell into deep thought.
Soon some ministers stood up to refute...
"Businessmen are selfish and shameless. Can they be trusted?"
Yu Chigong came out.
Military generals actually didn't have much favorable impressions of merchants.
"There are not only ruthless people in the world, but also true men who value love and righteousness!"
Wei Shuyu just smiled: "May I ask how many true-hearted men helped Your Majesty when he conquered the world?"
"Warrior Yi was also a merchant back then. He spent all his wealth to support the Supreme Emperor. Isn't he the best example?"
The ministers were speechless again.
The current Supreme Emperor is too awesome to criticize Samurai Yu.
It would not look good if the Supreme Emperor had a brain attack and knocked on the door with a jade seal.
"If there are not enough warriors, I will tell you about others..."
"In fact, during this disaster, many wealthy businessmen and wealthy people came forward to provide relief, but your small kindness was just a drop in the bucket and you didn't pay attention to it."
"There are also many chivalrous people who came to the rescue, but their numbers are small, so you have ignored them."
"There are even some families who are not wealthy to begin with, but they also provide food for disaster relief."
"I want to ask you, have you seen their kind deeds?"
The ministers were silent.
Wei Shuyu was right.
They only took the spontaneous acts of kindness of the common people as a matter of course.
"I know you are all opposed to the mercantile policy!"
"You are all talents selected by His Majesty from all over the world. Your objections are very important..."
Suddenly, Wei Shuyu's progress...
"But the world is not just about the court, there are also millions of common people, as well as top talents from all walks of life!"
“Their voices matter more!”
"You could stop me in the court, but could you stop them?"
"Innovation is promoted by talents, and merchants spread their trade throughout the world."
"Only when everyone in the entire Tang Dynasty is united can we create an invincible grand hegemony!"
"I want to say..."
Wei Shuyu turned around, his sharp eyes swept over the ministers one by one, and finally settled on Li Shimin...
"Recruiting talented people to the court will set a foundation for a lifetime!"
"Recruiting talented people from all over the world can last for eternity!"
After finishing speaking, Wei Shuyu held the wat board in both hands, bowed slightly, and a sound like a bell resounded in the Tai Chi Hall...
"Your Majesty, Wei Shuyu, begs your Majesty to issue an edict to allow business to resume!"
