"It seems that the old minister did not lose unjustly." Changsun Wuji said with emotion at this time, "However, although His Highness's policy is unprecedented, it seems simple, but there are also very important things. It’s the skill of the craftsmen.”
"Without sufficient technical support and the goods produced not having such high profits, the effectiveness of this policy and means will naturally be greatly reduced, although its overall effect is still excellent."
"Therefore, Wei Chen feels that the laws related to patents and the laws on encouraging technical talents that His Highness mentioned before should be passed as soon as possible. The Ministry of Education will discuss this matter in the near future."
Changsun Wuji easily resolved the embarrassment, changed the topic, and also proposed a brand new policy to solve the problem.
"I have no objection. The idea of Zhongshu Province is very good." Li Ke nodded. Although many of the reform points and methods he had previously proposed have been proposed, they have not been officially implemented. They are mainly used as arguments for the court. To use it, especially to modify the laws of the Tang Dynasty, this is not a simple matter.
This kind of thing cannot be rushed.
"Indeed, I also agree. From a certain perspective, I think it is not an exaggeration to think that these academicians of the Academy of Sciences are the pillars of the country. Sometimes an invention can change the entire country. We must strengthen the training of talents in this field and encourage , and we can't let their treatment chill people's hearts." Fang Xuanling also nodded.
"The Shangshu Province will allocate a part of the funds to increase the monthly salary for these talents. It is regarded as a special subsidy from the Tang Dynasty court. In this case, the honor cannot be less, and the service treatment cannot be low. Even, I think safety must also be Take it seriously.”
"Currently, the Tang Dynasty is powerful, but if there are other powerful countries outside in the future, maybe the assassins they send will target these academician craftsmen." Fang Xuanling said seriously.
"I will strengthen the training of personnel in this area and strengthen the alert together with Huo Shangshu." Qin Qiong next to him added.
"It's all a good thing. So, you just proposed a 40 billion infrastructure plan and implemented it according to this plan?" Li Shimin added lightly at this time, and naturally skipped the matter just now.
"Okay, I won't do it this time. I'll just leave it to the relevant departments of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Construction."
Li Ke also nodded, and then continued to look at these ministers and said, "Actually, the key point of this plan is simple, just one point, that is, as the Tang Dynasty court, don't care about money, money will not disappear, it will just transfer. .From one person’s pocket to another person’s pocket, or from one group’s pocket to another group’s pocket.”
"What we as the court have to do are two things. First, make the people rich. We will try our best to increase people's income. If the people are rich, the Tang Dynasty will be rich."
"Second, avoid over-concentration of wealth in the hands of aristocratic families, merchants and others, and avoid things like buried copper coins that have happened in all dynasties. Because copper coins are buried, it means that money cannot circulate."
"When money stops circulating and the economy and society slump, various problems will arise in the country. We will skip this topic for today. It is a very complicated theory. Officials and scholars who are willing to study this aspect can go there themselves. Research."
Fang Xuanling nodded and said: "I understand, I still need your advice on how to avoid excessive concentration of money and how to prevent aristocratic families from hiding money. In this regard, you are recognized as the God of Wealth throughout the Tang Dynasty, and it is related to money. Regarding the matter, many people said that you are the right person to contact His Highness."
"In fact, it's simple. Just try to develop entertainment methods. To put it bluntly, it's just to find a place for these aristocratic families and wealthy people to spend money."
"Like the Everlasting City of the Tang Dynasty?" Wei Zheng answered.
"Yes, that's what the Tang Dynasty never sleeps means. Because everyone thinks about it, it is inevitable for aristocratic families and merchant families to make money. In other words, there will always be some people in this world who make a lot of money. This is inevitable. "
"When they make money, they find that they live in the best place. These are considered one-time consumption. They eat the best food. Although it is not a one-time consumption, it does not cost much."
"Suppose they earn 100,000 yuan a year, but they cannot spend even 10,000 yuan a year. It's not that they don't want to spend it, but that society has no way for them to spend it, so their money will naturally be saved. "
"So we have to find a way to get them to take their money out of their pockets. Only when their money is taken out can their money be transferred to the pockets of ordinary people." Li Ke nodded.
Everyone was speechless. Today's conversation must not be hidden. There are too many people here. It won't take long for everyone to spread the word. Is it appropriate for us to discuss how to defraud wealthy people from their money?
They won't say this, but it means that Li Ke doesn't know. If Li Ke knew, he would probably sneer at it. Do you think rich people don’t want to? They are more active than you.
Isn't the saddest thing in life that people die without spending all their money? Do you think those wealthy people from aristocratic families don’t want to spend or enjoy themselves?
No, they just don't have anywhere to spend money, because before Li Ke appeared, the technological top of the entire society was also in their own hands. When it came to having fun, they were much more active than ordinary people.
"There is something you must remember." Li Ke looked at them.
After all the ministers' eyes were focused, Li Ke continued: "When a country's economic development stagnates, and when you who control the country's economic development don't know how to invest in the next step, remember that there is absolutely nothing wrong with infrastructure construction. "
"The so-called infrastructure refers to the infrastructure and basic construction of a country. It refers to the expansion of fixed assets in production for the purpose of economic development, that is, the general term for the construction, purchase and installation work carried out by various departments of the national economy to increase fixed assets. The investment is large and effective. slow."
"Including but not limited to railways, mines, bridges, factories, ports, hospitals, schools and various livelihood infrastructure, such as power plants and power grids that Datang will develop in the future."
The ministers thought for a moment and nodded, indicating that they remembered it. Chu Suiliang and others around him naturally also recorded these concepts and plans in the history books.
"And, hey, it doesn't matter if you don't have money. Believe it or not, in the next car, those aristocratic families and businessmen are already ready to spend money." Li Ke suddenly laughed twice and said.
Everyone: "..." I know that your Highness's intention of inviting them here is not that ordinary!
