Chapter 591 What can I do?(1/2)
510,000 yuan, isn’t this a joke?
Even if he peeled and cramped his bones, and then broke them inch by inch, he wouldn't be able to find so much money.
If Duan Lun asked him to take out 510,000 yuan, Duan Lun still felt that he would die.
When Duan Lun refused himself so decisively, Li Shimin also thrust his face.
He didn't say that if Duan Lun was so much money alone, this guy was so straightforward to reject him?
"Duan Lun, you said that I just said that I would not pursue you and let you pay two money, so I was so unwilling to do so?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.
Duan Lun's mouth twitched.
Is this two money?
"Your Majesty, I..."
"Your Majesty, how much does this potato cost per pound? Why do you need 510,000 guan?" Fang Xuanling was afraid that Duan Lun would be furious to the emperor again.
Quickly transfer the topic to the potato itself.
Fang Xuanling calculated that 500,000 jin is 500,000 jin, and 3 million jin of potatoes. How much does these potatoes cost per jin?
One hundred and seventy cents per pound.
This is much more expensive than beef and mutton.
Even they can't afford such a high price.
Ordinary people are afraid that they will not even dare to take a look.
"Fang Xiang is right. Why do these three million kilograms of potatoes cost so much?"
"Your Majesty has cheated Zhao County Gong."
"Mr. Zhao has always had many tricks, maybe Your Majesty really cheated him."
"That's not it, this Zhao County Duke..."
"Your Majesty, what's going on? Three million kilograms of potatoes were sold at such a sky-high price." Fang Xuanling asked again.
No matter how you calculate it, the price of these potatoes shouldn't be that expensive.
Li Shimin looked forward and saw that all the ministers were looking at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
"I once wanted to be promoted to Duke of the State with Zhao Chen..."
"Duke?"
"How old is he? In one year, he will be promoted to Duke?"
"What do you think of? Did he refuse?"
Before the emperor could finish his words, he heard a loud conversation among his ministers.
How many Dukes can there be except for those who stand here now?
Moreover, no of these dukes crawled out of the dead.
Zhao Chen, a seventeen-year-old boy, actually wanted to make him the Duke of the Kingdom.
The key is that Zhao Chen seemed to refuse after hearing the emperor's tone.
"That guy Zhao Chen said he didn't want the title of Duke, he only wanted money!" Li Shimin stood on it with a faint expression.
"What?"
"I don't want the Duke of the Kingdom, just money?"
"Is he crazy?"
"How many people dare not think about the title of Duke of the Kingdom. He didn't even take it seriously. He just didn't want it if he said he didn't want it?"
"This is really crazy, definitely not fake."
When the officials heard the emperor say that Zhao Chen only had money and no title, the exclamation sound almost overturned the Tai Chi Palace.
Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong looked at each other and found that each other's eyes were full of shock.
If they were in Zhao Chen's position, they would never have rejected the position of Duke.
Zhao Chen actually refused.
He could tolerate such a great temptation!
"But your Majesty, you don't need so much money!" Fang Xuanling was amazed, and thought of the 510,000 guan again.
510,000 jin, when will this last?
The emperor wouldn't want to get money from the treasury.
This doesn't work.
The last time he built a cement road for Tubo, the emperor asked Zhao Chen to borrow 20 million chunks, but he almost let the court turn over.
If you take out the money this time, I am afraid that the officials of the Ministry of Revenue will collectively hang their own branches.
The rest of the people were quiet at this moment, waiting for the emperor's answer.
If the emperor wants to get money from the treasury, they have to fight for the emperor today.
"The three million kilograms of potatoes are 15,000 jin, and then there is a patent fee for potatoes, which means that I can grow potatoes anywhere in the future."
"This patent fee is 500,000 yuan!" Li Shimin said quietly.
He was also feeling uncomfortable.
What patent fee is 500,000 yuan?
Zhao Chen’s money is faster than the Tang Dynasty’s mint.
"Your Majesty is confused!"
"The world belongs to His Majesty. Where does His Majesty grow potatoes instead of planting them?"
"Can Zhao Chen stop His Majesty?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, 510,000 yuan, the Ministry of Revenue will definitely not be able to produce it."
"It's too much. Your Majesty, I'll go find Duke Zhao and ask him to spit out the money."
The officials were excited.
The entire Tang Dynasty belongs to the emperor.
Which potato is there? Isn’t the emperor’s final decision?
Why do we still need to look at Zhao Chen's expression?
Patent fee?
I haven't heard of this thing before.
"I think so, but Zhao Chen told me that he has any sweet potatoes to grow, and the yield is even greater than that of potatoes."
"If I don't pay this patent fee, he won't plant this sweet potato!"
"What can I do?" Li Shimin said slowly, his eyes showing a dizziness.
...
In Lizheng Hall, Li Chengqian sat opposite Empress Changsun.
Looking at the child she raised since childhood, Queen Changsun felt unaware of what it felt.
Now she just wants Li Chengqian to have a safe and peaceful life and never pay her life.
"How come Qian'er thinks about coming to her mother's place today?" Empress Changsun smiled.
Her attitude towards Li Chengqian has not changed much.
Or, I just felt a little guilty in my heart.
Thinking of the position of prince that Li Chengqian was thinking about, but in the end it was not his, Empress Changsun felt that she was sorry for him.
If it wasn't wrong at the beginning.
There will be no mistakes in the position of this prince.
Now……
"I haven't come to visit my mother for a long time. Today I will come and say goodbye to my mother." Li Chengqian said with a smile.
"You have this kind of heart, and the mother is already very happy." Queen Changsun smiled.
"Mother..." Li Chengqian suddenly paused.
He actually wanted to ask what the relationship between Zhao Chen and the queen was.
But he also knew that when asked, no matter whether it was like a rumor, the queen would definitely not be happy.
The queen was unhappy, which was of no benefit to him, Li Chengqian.
"Do you have something to say?" Empress Changsun smiled faintly.
