Wei Zheng thought about it, and then said directly: "Actually, this is simple, but one thing you have to make sure first is how many copies of this pinyin book can Huo Gang give? By the way, there is a note here, which should be for you."

Wei Zheng said that the book in his hand was handed to Li Shimin again. Li Shimin didn't read it much just now, but Wei Zheng saw the note in the book when he was looking through it, but he didn't read it. If there were some things he shouldn't have seen, wouldn't that be embarrassing? The most important thing is to embarrass his emperor.

Li Shimin took the book again, then opened the note inside, and opened it. After opening it, he saw the contents clearly. Li Shimin almost got angry, this little bastard.

"Xiao Changle, give this book to your father, tell him that I can sell it to him at a price of about 100 es per book. The quantity is not limited. Of course, he has to pay the transportation fee himself. Just negotiate the specific price with our big man's transportation caravan. Xiao Changle, don't give it to your father for free this time. You can increase the price in the middle! And I guess your father will definitely sell it, and he will also increase the price in the middle. Remember to tell him and discuss the specific price on paper with Guo Ming."

This is the content on the small note. Li Shimin was almost angry to death. You little bastard, it would be fine if you mess with my girl, but you actually let my girl earn her money?! But after getting angry, Li Shimin was also a little surprised. Such a book can be printed in 100 texts?!

Although the book on pinyin literacy is not too thick, and it only teaches about 1,200 commonly used characters, even these commonly used characters are actually enough for most people.

Because according to Wei Zheng's description, as long as the principle is understood, the words that are not in this book can be learned by yourself.

Of course, if this is popularized by Tang Dynasty, it is naturally necessary to make a dictionary by yourself.

But the price of this hundred cigarette is still very cheap!

"Huo Gang said that this book can be sold to us at a price of 100 s. As for the specific cost to the outside world, we have the final say, but this price is not the transportation price, and we need to negotiate the transportation price ourselves." Li Shimin said that the note was put away, and it was impossible for Wei Zheng to see this thing.

If Wei Zheng saw this, he would be shameless. This little bastard would have angered him to death.

"One hundred texts?!" Wei Zheng was stunned.

"Yes, one hundred liters." Li Shimin completely came to his senses at this time. After he came to his senses, Li Shimin didn't know what to say. If such a book was based on the price of the Tang Dynasty, it would be an astronomical figure, but the Han Dynasty only needed one hundred liters.

"I suddenly understand why the great man is capable of literacy." Wei Zheng suddenly spoke.

"Tell me." Li Shimin put the book on the table next to him.

"The next plan for the literacy of the Han Dynasty is to implement compulsory education nationwide." Wei Zheng continued the topic just now.

"Compulsory education?" Li Shimin frowned, not quite understanding what the word means.

"It is to establish primary schools in all townships in Dahan, which is what we call private schools. Then all children of appropriate age must enter primary schools to study, and no one can violate them. In addition, all primary schools will provide all students with a free lunch, which will be directly converted into food and distributed to every family." Wei Zheng said.

"Can he afford it?!" Li Shimin was shocked. Although the Han Dynasty had a small population, how much does it cost?

Wei Zheng was silent for a moment, subconsciously turned his eyes to the book beside him, and Li Shimin also read it. After he looked at it, he immediately understood.

"Your Majesty, the five surnames and Qi Wang have always bought books from Huo Gang. I believe Your Majesty must know this, but the price of Huo Gang sold is definitely not a hundred words to print so many words." Wei Zheng pointed to the book and said.

Li Shimin suddenly felt a little bitter at the corner of his mouth. Yes, Huo Gang would definitely not be able to write a hundred articles, and it would not be able to be ten times more. Even if this book is sold to the aristocratic family at a price of hundreds of times, they would definitely want it! And the quantity is not small!

It’s not hard to know so much money. It’s actually not difficult to support the little students of the big man. After all, how much is the population of the big man?

What Li Shimin didn't know was that the Han Dynasty now lacked everything, but the most important thing was food. So what Huo Gang paid was actually just some printing costs, but in fact, the printing costs were mainly labor costs. In this era, for Huo Gang, it was almost equivalent to no labor costs.

To put it bluntly, Huo Gang was compulsory education to support the Han Dynasty with the Tang Dynasty and all the surrounding countries.

There are only tens of thousands of students, and Huo Gang can afford it now! After a few years, the Han Dynasty has a large population, but the Han Dynasty can still afford it at that time! Because the Han Dynasty had a larger population at that time, but similarly, the Han Dynasty's strength at that time was no longer the same as it is now.

"A generation, they only need one generation, and there will be more than 100,000 scholars. If this policy persists, almost all the Han Dynasty will be scholars in the future." Li Shimin murmured to himself.

Don’t think about it, he knew that when the world is full of scholars, would there be a shortage of good officials? No! At that time, I don’t know how many talents there will be.

"Can our Tang Dynasty implement this policy?!" Li Shimin took a deep breath and asked decisively.

"No." Wei Zheng shook his head without thinking, "Our food is not enough, but we can try a simplified version." Wei Zheng said decisively, if Li Shimin is willing to do this issue of education, Wei Zheng will definitely support it.

"But your Majesty, you have to understand something." Wei Zheng looked at Li Shimin and said.

"You said." Li Shimin also looked at Wei Zheng.

"This is digging the graves of all the aristocratic families." Wei Zheng said word by word.

Why do the aristocratic families stand firm? It is not other things, but because they monopolized the most important and most precious wealth and knowledge of this era! So this is the fundamental reason why they stand firm.

If Li Shimin did this, it would mean that he would completely dig a grave for the aristocratic families, and they would not be able to sit idly by.

"What do you think the contracts I signed with these aristocratic families before are for? I have given them enough benefits. If they still don't know how to advance or retreat, the current Tang Dynasty is not the Tang Dynasty a year ago!" Li Shimin's tone was extremely firm!

"Have you thought about it?" Wei Zheng asked seriously.

"Think about it." Li Shimin also answered very seriously.

"I think we should call Du Xiang and Fang Xiang over for this matter. We will discuss it together. I am not as good as the two of you in terms of attention." Wei Zheng said directly.

"Chang Lin!" Li Shimin shouted.

Chang Lin came in soon. Li Shimin asked Chang Lin to invite Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling. After they left, Li Shimin suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "Xuancheng, I don't know why, but I suddenly feel like I'm driven away by someone. Originally, this plan was actually planned to be implemented after we took down those black soil and after these aristocratic families got some benefits."

"It's something Huo Gang said to me before, although the price of books was not that low at that time." Li Shimin felt helpless.

Wei Zheng thought about it, and then he had to admit that it was really the case. At the pace of the Tang Dynasty or Li Shimin himself, it would take at least two years to do this. This year, the Tang Dynasty's plan was to be ready to advance directly towards Youzhou, and then use the power of taking down the Eastern Turks to directly threaten the Shiwei tribe. Shiwei could not fight against the Tang Dynasty.

Because they could not defeat them, they were not even against the Eastern Turks, let alone the Tang Dynasty. As long as they stabilized their Wei, the Tang Dynasty could completely take down the black soil.

After taking those, they started to immigrate. Then they followed some reminders from Huo Gang to guard against Goguryeo and then immigrated to that location. Under the immigration policy of next year and next year, the family members have gained enough benefits. Li Shimin proposed these plans again, and it would be natural.

At that time, these aristocratic families will not be able to resist, and they will not be able to resist at that time.

After the Tang Dynasty drew out a large number of troops from the Western Regions, it had enough troops to support both the domestic and northern borders!

Moreover, the northern border is actually much easier to fight than the Western Regions. At least there is no shortage of water sources and other supplies, and forage such as horses can be replenished on the spot.

But now, after Huo Gang took out these things, Li Shimin had to speed up, otherwise, there would always be a feeling that time would not wait for me.

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling came very quickly. After they arrived, Wei Zheng first introduced the previous matters, and then the four kings and ministers began to discuss this matter. Just as Wei Zheng said, in terms of Yin people and strategy, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling were much better than him.

"Actually, this matter is not difficult." Du Ruhui thought for a while and spoke directly.

"You said." Li Shimin was not polite either.

"Your Majesty, what Mr. Wei said before gave me some ideas. It's very simple. We also use public opinion, or the long mouth of the world." Du Ruhui said directly.

"Well, don't keep it a secret." Fang Xuanling, who was next to him, rolled his eyes and said.

"Okay, it's actually very simple. What Mr. Wei said just now about patent fees, His Majesty can actually use it in the book, and directly use His Highness Changle's name." Du Ruhui said immediately.

"We will first sell these books to various aristocratic families at an extremely low price. Not only the five surnames and seven hopes, but also all other aristocratic families of all sizes. They cannot refuse."

"This price is much lower than that they bought books from Huo Gang, but for us, it has a terrifying profit. The amount of money that is still available is still in the name of His Highness Changle. His Highness is sympathetic to the people of the world and is willing to use the money they earn to build a private school." Du Ruhui said quickly, "Of course, this matter must be signed with these aristocratic families first and announced after getting their money."
