When Li Shimin had a headache, the wealthy families in Chang'an City also felt numb.
When they discussed before, everyone knew exactly what to do. This was indeed their best way, but the current result was that before they could do anything, His Highness King Qin actually guessed what they wanted to do. .
Or... a simple coincidence?
Don't care if it was a guess or a coincidence. The problem now is that they haven't taken action yet, and it turns out that His Highness's defensive measures have come out...or it's not defensive measures, but directly strangled any measures they might take. .
It's not the same thing to strangle to death, and it's that kind of thing. Not only do I strangle to death, but if you don't join in, you will die.
Chamber of Commerce.
This model is very simple, but the information contained in this model makes everyone who is doing business understand that if they do not join in, their business firms will soon lose their competitiveness.
As any businessman knows, the timeliness of information is important.
The complementarity between businessmen will play a role of one plus one far greater than two. It is not that no one did this before, but it is difficult to gain the unconditional trust of others.
But if His Highness King Qin takes the lead in doing this, it means that first of all, there will be no barrier on the issue of trust.
Then it is normal for two businessmen who are complete strangers to trade with each other while His Highness the King of Qin assumes the guarantee.
And once these businessmen unite, the power they release will have to be taken seriously by these powerful families.
They want to do something, but there is nothing they can do now.
Against His Highness? The current King of Qin has almost no shortcomings. To be disrespectful, there is no way to create any barrier to His Highness the King of Qin through the power of the public. Regarding what His Highness the King of Qin did in Xizhou, his status in His Majesty's mind is unlimited. high.
Why should others influence His Majesty? The only thing that can make His Majesty wary is the throne. But if, if His Majesty doesn't care about that throne very much, then Your Majesty will be invincible.
You can't influence His Majesty from any angle.
Contact all the powerful families in the world and dismiss them collectively? Stop making noise and be practical. Think about it, just hold a meeting to show the power of the family members by killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and suppress the two merchant families. As a result, someone informed the news, and His Highness learned the news so quickly.
Do you still want to dismiss everyone from office collectively? Besides, there are many ministers in the DPRK, and some of them do come from well-established families, but will those ministers listen to them? hehe.
His Highness held the sword in his hand, and it was impossible for them to influence the military commander. Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde were usually a little jerks, but they were never confused at critical moments.
In addition, the first echelon of military commanders was Li Jing, who came from a wealthy family, but Li Jing came from the Li family in Longxi, so he was considered a member of His Majesty's family.
The other Hou Junji, Zhang Liang, Li Daozong, Li Shiji, etc. either came from poor families and were promoted by His Majesty, or they were members of the clan. How could they influence them?
More importantly, through the "Datang Weekly", through the Datang National Martyrs Cemetery, through one by one, His Highness the King of Qin and the Imperial Family of the Tang Dynasty, who have gained extremely great reputation among the people of the world, you noble families and generals If you say you don't admit it, why don't you admit it?
If you say you don't admit it, you're a piece of shit? Do you have anyone working for you? How many people in the world and soldiers in the world listen to you?
You know, the people in this world have just experienced the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and they have just been allocated their own land! What is more important to the people than land? What can your wealthy family give you? Those government soldiers all came from the common people.
Do you really think that small soldiers will not rebel against the general?
Zhang Fei could even have his head cut off by the guards.
If it were in the past, they might be able to deceive people's minds through propaganda and other means by uniting their powerful families, but now? Haven't you heard that His Highness's Yuelai Trading Company has already spread all over the world, but they have no idea how this trading company operates, how many people there are, and how many people there are.
When they exchanged information before, they found that many of His Highness's trading companies were deeply involved among the people. Anyway, many people in the world knew about this trading company.
This means that it is simply impossible for them to deceive the people!
All wealthy families don't care about the people, but they can't lose the people.
Because each of their big ships is also based on the common people.
When the world was in chaos and there was a rebellion, there were countless families who were directly robbed and killed. If many of their families weren't spread all over the country, they would have been wiped out long ago. Even so, some of them were wiped out.
Therefore, if you really want to be disadvantageous, you can only attack His Highness through assassination and other methods, but...the question is, who will do it?
Who is willing to lead the Nine Clan Xiaoxiaole to be the first to come forward, and then let all other families benefit? Who is so good? Burn my whole family and illuminate everyone, right?
This kind of family that casually dares to assassinate the prince is found out, and there are absolutely nine clans. Don't even think about it, unless you can control all the soldiers and generals of the Tang Dynasty at the same time.
This difficulty...
Therefore, they have no choice but not even dare to use any dirty tricks.
Don’t forget what His Highness announced before. One day, all non-registered households in the country will be abolished and replaced by contract systems.
Are the servants in their family really completely loyal to them? They can guarantee those servants with a little bit of power such as housekeepers, but those at the bottom themselves dare not say so, because it is normal for domestic servants to be beaten and scolded by their masters every day.
Who can be so selfish? No grudge? If only one person knew about some of their thoughts, their family would be doomed.
No one bets the whole family.
Again, Your Majesty does not dare to kill all the powerful families, but those who jump out should wait for death.
And even though all the powerful families knew that His Majesty's purpose was to eventually weaken all their power, they were unable to resist because it was too late now.
The final reason is still the same sentence, it is impossible to concentrate all the power!
Just such a strategy of killing chickens to scare monkeys is already full of loopholes. No one knows who is actually leaning towards His Highness. Everyone is suspicious of each other, so how can they dare to make more plans?
All over Chang'an, the heads of various families sighed.
It’s so difficult! His Highness's control over people's hearts has reached the extreme. Just such a strategy about the Chamber of Commerce released through "Datang Weekly" suddenly disintegrated their alliance.
Even the seven families with the five surnames and Qi Wang cannot guarantee to each other that there will be absolutely no problem.
Although they all know that their seven families are the largest vested interests and the largest wealthy families in the Tang Dynasty, the problem is... three of these seven families have begun to hedging their bets. How can they be trusted?
