Li Shimin and Empress Changsun looked at each other. There was something about Li Ke's focus and direction, which really surprised Li Shimin.
These beggars and victims were reported by the Magistrate of Chang'an County and the Magistrate of Wannian County. These two capital counties, as the city of Chang'an, are bounded by Zhuque Street running from north to south, with Wannian County to the east and Chang'an County to the west.
The impact of these beggars and disaster victims is actually very great. As the population of this era exceeds one million, this was very unimaginable in ancient times. The security problem of Chang'an City, which has a total of 108 squares, is very serious, and there are many idlers and scoundrels.
These people are a mixed bag of good and bad, and finally form a chronic disease of Chang'an, which are some gang organizations and some secret organizations. Let alone secret organizations, this has something to do with spies from all over the world, and gang organizations are a serious disease of Chang'an.
The most important input for the membership of gang organizations is these beggars and disaster victims.
They brought not only face problems to Datang, but also serious social security problems.
Now Li Ke has proposed a fundamental solution to the problem. You must know that since the Li Yuan era, similar problems have been reported to the magistrates of these two counties almost every year. However, regardless of strengthening the power of Jingzhao Mansion, it is still left to the left and right Jin Wuwei came to inspect Chang'an City, or improved the strength of bad commanders, but they could not fundamentally solve the problem.
The method proposed by Li Ke... made Li Shimin feel a little refreshed and impressed. The point was that Li Ke's position was completely different from that of ordinary officials.
Other officials had also thought about the problem of disaster victims, or refugees, but they had no good solution to the problem, but Li Ke thought of it.
"Yes, you finally came up with a good idea. Since you are doing something for the country, you should go to the court to discuss it in advance, and then the money will definitely not come from you, but from the court..." Li Shimin nodded happily.
"Don't!" Li Ke hurriedly stopped him. Are you kidding me? The court paid for it, and if Li Shimin found out the truth, wouldn't he be beaten to death? Besides, if the court pays for it, who will own these things in the future?
"Father, this matter is the heart of the son. The main thing is that the father is the mother and the sisters pay the bill. The money is hot, so I came up with such a method. All of this is an experiment to test whether this method works. If everything works, it won't be too late for my father to let others do it, but this matter is actually not that simple." Li Ke said quickly.
"Oh, tell me." Li Shimin asked curiously.
"Incorporating refugees and beggars requires a lot of money. I also thought of setting up factories to give these people some work and let them be self-reliant. It is definitely impossible to simply be raised by the court, and the money is not enough. This is a It’s a bottomless pit, because once they are all raised by the imperial court, there may be some people who are dawdling around.”
"So I don't know what the situation is, so why don't I tell my father about it, and I will give him a test first. When the time comes, my father will write a handwritten letter to him, and I will make it into a plaque. , hanging above the park, this way, these refugees and beggars can also understand the kindness of the father." Li Ke was already forced to speak in the way of an educated man.
Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Li Ke's words were so reasonable and well-founded that it was really hard for people to find fault. It would be great if this kid could always be like this.
"Okay, I'll write this handwriting for you. This is a good thing!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.
"Then I will then go to buy the relevant land with the Chang'an County Magistrate, and then send the land deed to your father." Li Ke immediately said, taking retreat as an opportunity to advance.
"What are you talking about! First of all, you are doing things for the country. Even if you spend your own money, you still need to buy the land? Then where should I, the emperor, put it? In this way, tomorrow I will order the magistrate of Chang'an County I will allocate 10,000 acres of land for you and let you handle this matter. You can keep the title deed for yourself. If it fails in the end, the land will be rewarded to you." Li Shimin waved his hand and said cheerfully.
"This..." Li Ke looked embarrassed.
"Okay, Ke'er, just listen to your father. Think about it, the reputation of your park was created for your father. If your father doesn't pay any money and let people talk about it, it will damage the royal dignity." Queen Changsun said with a smile.
"Then... I won't refuse. Father, please write the words for me now. I will start directly when I get back." Li Ke gave Empress Changsun a thumbs up. It's worthy of me to call you Empress. ,awesome!
"Chang Lin, pen and ink." Li Shimin simply waved his hand and said, this is a good thing, and of course he will not refuse.
Chang Lin immediately sent people to prepare. Rice paper was already available in the late Sui Dynasty. By the Tang Dynasty, rice paper was more common. The method is to peel off the rice paper of these ancient book paintings, so that two paintings can be produced directly.
It cannot be said to be a fake, because it is actually two pieces of the real thing that have been peeled apart.
Soon the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were all ready. Chang Lin was studying ink for Li Shimin. Li Shimin looked at Li Ke and asked: "What to write?"
"Dad, just write: Datang Royal Welfare Industrial Park. By the way, if you don't mind, just write your name too. This way, ordinary people will know that this word was written by you." Li Ke quickly said He spoke.
Li Shimin nodded without saying a word, but directly wrote the inscription with his pen.
Soon, the words "Datang Royal Welfare Industrial Park" appeared on the paper, and on the left side of the rice paper, Li Shimin also wrote four words: Li Shimin's book.
"Thank you, father." Li Ke bent down and bowed, and saluted quickly.
"Okay, seeing as you are thoughtful today, let me write a few more words for you." Li Shimin thought for a while and said.
"Don't." Li Ke quickly stopped him.
"Huh?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows. Who dares to refuse a gift from me?
How dare Li Ke let him continue writing? The more he writes now, the harder he will be beaten when he finds out in the future? So Li Ke doesn’t want any of this extra stuff!
His Royal Highness Li Ke, King of Shu, stands out for not being greedy! Yes, not greedy! People must know how to be content, and His Royal Highness the King of Shu is very content.
"My son, I haven't achieved much yet. The more you write for me now, if I fail, it won't damage your eyes. So when I succeed, you can write for me for three days and three nights. I will I won't refuse either." Li Ke said quickly.
"Go away, you still want me to write three days and three nights for you? Don't push me away." Li Shimin glanced at him, laughed and cursed, and stopped mentioning the matter.
