I left this trouble to Gu Qing and Yan Liben to take care of it. I hope Gu Qing will take care of it. I know in my heart how much money the port is spent on construction, and I also know the pressure of Gu Qing. The entire port is almost half the tax for the Tang Dynasty in one year. Most of Gu Qing's money is spent here. I hope Gu Qing can solve the problem of manpower and money, and I also hope that Gu Qing will not give up on the next expansion of the port because of money. If this time cannot be completed at one time, I may have to wait for the next time.

Yan Liben was worried and hoped that Gu Qing could understand the meaning of the letter.

Chang'an Gu Family

Gu Qing bid farewell to Chu Suiliang and Li Tai, and Wu Mei came with the account book, "Husband, can you slow down the money in the port?"

"What's wrong?" Gu Qing asked Wu Mei.

"The money is a little too much to transfer." Wu Mei whispered, "If we can only use our capital to add to the flow of water, we can still last for four or five years."

"I understand." Gu Qing nodded, "I will see the money coming back next year, don't worry! The money from the academy cannot be left behind, every payment must be given, and the construction of the port cannot be stopped. I know you are under a lot of pressure, but now we will be narrower after we don't resist."

"I understand." Wu Mei smiled and said to Gu Qing, "Even if we live a hard life, we can't let go of the academies and ports."

Gu Qing nodded, "No one can stand it except us. As long as we carry it, many people can rest assured."

Wu Mei knew Gu Qing's obsession, and she could let go of many things in Gu Qing's heart, but some things were not possible. Even if Gu Qing should delegate power, some interests could be given up but would not fight. However, the entire academy was the obsession in Gu Qing's heart, like a kind of stubbornness and persistence. No matter how much money was used, the academy must operate normally, and the construction of a port. Gu Qing would not let go of these two things.

Even for factories, the factory's revenue has been declining over the years, but it is better to lose money than to open the factory.

When Li Zhi heard the conversation between Wu Mei and Gu Qing, he pretended not to care and was still playing with building blocks with Gu Xiao.

The next day, Li Zhi came to the Hai Trade Department early and saw Shangguan Yi frowning, "Uncle Shangguan, do you have any worries?"

"I talked to Chu Suiliang about money." Shangguan Yi said.

"Chu Suiliang?" Li Zhi said, "Chu Suiliang went to see Gu Qing yesterday."

Shangguan Yi nodded slightly, "It seems that Chu Suiliang has also seen that the money in the Tang Dynasty is starting to have problems."

Li Zhi had heard the conversation between Gu Qing and Li Ran yesterday, and the conversation between Wu Mei and Gu Qing. He said to Shangguan Yi: "Actually, I eavesdropped on the conversation between Gu Qing and the head of the Li family in Zhao County yesterday, and they also noticed it."

"Gu Qing also noticed it?"

Li Zhi nodded, "It's not that he noticed that Gu Qing had discovered the problem, and this problem has been revealed in the Gu family."

"Sure enough, something is going to happen." Shangguan Yi's face was solemn.

"But Uncle Shangguan, don't worry, Gu Qing said yesterday that even if life is hard, he will hold on to it even if he lives are not as hard as factories, academies, or ports." Li Zhi said.

"It's not easy to withstand it. Once a problem arises in the big situation, it cannot be solved by Gu Qing alone." Shangguan Yi said, "How many years can Gu Qing handle it? Treat the symptoms but not the root cause."

"Uncle Shangguan, I don't understand Gu Qing's meaning in one thing." Li Zhi said in a low voice, "Gu Qing said to open a money house and open the world's number one money house?"

"Money House?" Shangguan Yi was puzzled, "Will he be willing to restrain the world's money?"

"Uncle Shangguan, it's not what you think." Li Zhi quickly explained, "This money house is a bit special, unlike the money house today! And Gu Qing also said that he can't start working as a money house, otherwise he won't live long, and he seems to be waiting for something."

"wait?"

"right."

Li Zhi said here, Shangguan Yi understood roughly, "I understand, is Gu Qing trying to speak in the court, right?"

"Maybe it is." Li Zhi said again, "This world's number one money house is very big. Gu Qing said that it can reverse the current situation and start to drive to other small countries. I don't understand some words very well. I am in charge of the world's money tax. What does Gu Qing mean by saying this?"

Shangguan Yi quickly thought about Gu Qing's meaning, the world's number one money house! In charge of the world's money tax? Thinking of this, Shangguan Yi immediately took out the big map of the Central Plains. This map was used by the Marine Trade Department to not only waterways, as if he had found a new gate, leaving the important counties of the Tang Dynasty to draw dots and lines, extending with Chang'an as the center and extending to the outside of the pass.

After finding his thoughts, Shangguan Yi smiled, "I know what Gu Qing has to do. If it is a business that is sucking the blood of those small countries to the Tang Dynasty, then the first money house in the entire Central Plains is biting the meat of these small countries."

"Uncle Shangguan, how can you explain this?" Li Zhi said in confusion.

"Hahaha." Shangguan Yi suddenly laughed, "Gu Qing's appetite has always been quite good. This world's No. 1 Money Bank is in charge of money from the Central Plains. His Highness, King of Jin, think carefully about what the money of small countries like Tubo, Persia, and India all fell into the hands of the world's No. 1 Money Bank, Gu Qing was such a powerful plan!"

Li Zhi was a little confused.

Shangguan Yi continued, "Tubo, Persia, India, Goguryeo, and Japan. When the people of these small countries began to save money in the world's number one money house, all the money of their people was under the control of our Tang Dynasty. I dare not even think of this strategy. Gu Qing is so bold!"

Li Zhi was also thinking that Shangguan Yi's words, the business only made a difference from other people, which made many people in the Tang Dynasty taste the benefits, and there were many nobles in the Western Regions.

If you open a money house in another country, you can just throw out enough benefits to let the people of other countries come to the money house in the Tang Dynasty to save money until you completely control the wealth of these small countries and control the taxes of other countries. What is the treasury? If you control the money of those people, you will be the real big deal. You can even empty the money of other countries in an instant and make everyone lose money.

Cut off the firewood from the bottom of the cauldron?

"I will leave this idea to Chu Suiliang and let Chu Suiliang do it." Shangguan Yi immediately spread out the ink paper, "This matter must be done immediately, at least before this, Chu Suiliang must do it first. As long as you have this money house, the road after the Tang Dynasty will be very easy."

Li Zhi doesn't understand some things. He is not very good at political affairs. From childhood to adulthood, he heard the most about business with Gu Qing, but he can almost never do it when dealing with government affairs.
