Chapter 190 [Make a big scene, not enough people](1/2)
Changsun Wuji paused for a moment, as if to take a breath and rest, then he pulled up the rope again and continued to pull pears to plow the land, saying: "Do you think everyone is pulling pears? No, we are pulling them to show His Highness, and we are also pulling them.
Show it to Gu Tianya. What is a plow? A plow is the most important tool for people in the world to dig food in the soil. As officials of the Tang Dynasty, we have the responsibility to feed the people, so this is not about pulling pears, but pulling up officials.
The heavy responsibility of the leader!"
Changsun Chong was thoughtful.
But Changsun Wuji suddenly turned around, looked at his son with a solemn face, and said earnestly: "You are still a child now, and Cheng Chumo and the others are also children. You, the younger generation, are not qualified to pull this plow yet, but you
I have also seen that each family has its own children holding the plow. If you take a closer look, every one holding the plow is the eldest son. Chong'er, think about it, do you know the reason for this? "
Changsun Chong was very smart and said without hesitation: "Inherit? Cultivate?"
Changsun Wuji nodded happily, but still added a little, and said leisurely: "There is also a promise to present it to the royal family."
He glanced not far away and said again: "Your aunt will be the queen in the future. Normally, our family does not need to be like others, but the most feared thing in the world is a 'normal', because things in the world are never as they should be.
If you want to enjoy wealth, you have to work hard. If the eldest son of another family can pull pears, you, as the eldest son of the eldest grandson, must also pull pears."
Changsun Chong nodded solemnly, his face full of solemnity.
Changsun, the old bastard, was even more pleased. Suddenly he looked not far away again and said pointedly: "Back then, everyone in Tiance Mansion was the most ruthless in doing things for my father. I valued interests and Gu Tianya valued friendship, so even if we are each other
We are related, but he is the most vigilant about being a father. You are my son, so you may be affected. This time everyone came to congratulate the tiger cub. One of the main purposes is to keep their eldest son. If you keep
If you don’t come down, you will fall behind others in the future.”
Changsun Chong subconsciously became nervous and couldn't help but said: "Do you want to learn Uncle Gu's knowledge?"
Changsun Wuji nodded solemnly and said, "Everyone wants to."
…
In the field not far away, Li Shimin stretched out his hand to wipe his sweat. Gu Tianya next to him chuckled, handed him a sweat towel, and asked with a smile: "Can I lend it to you?"
Li Shimin glanced at the sweat towel with some disgust, frowned and said: "It smells like sweat, take it away quickly. You are a person with status now. Don't look slovenly like a farmer all day long. Look at how you are dressed.
I almost didn't recognize it before."
Gu Tianya laughed twice, wiped his face with a sweat towel nonchalantly, and said slowly: "You were holding the cow rope just now, walking like a farmer with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and your posture was very ugly and careless.
It’s despising…”
Li Shimin glared at him and said angrily: "I was working for my eldest brother to prevent him from being too tired."
Gu Tianya said 'hey' and said pointedly: "Then you will have something to do in the future. The things that the eldest brother was supposed to do can be tiring to death. Today we are just plowing a small amount of land, but there are so many needs in the world.
Farmed fields.”
Li Shimin was startled for a moment, then nodded slowly and said, "Yes, this will be very tiring."
Gu Tianya glanced at him, smiled and joked: "How about you give up the throne to me, and I will help you with this tiring work?"
Li Shimin immediately let out a 'poof' and cursed: "What you think is beautiful, but there is no such thing as picking fruits. You can also want to be an emperor. You rise up in Hebei Province. As long as your rebellion succeeds, the Li family can give you the country."
."
Gu Tianya curled his lips and said, "I'm not stupid. I only do this when I'm full."
After saying that, he glanced at Li Shimin and said: "Second brother, you don't need to test me. We have already talked about this. Zhao Ning has a stubborn personality and she is not willing to take advantage of her mother's family. But I have a child and everything will be ready for me. I'm sure
Nor will I embezzle the interests of your Li family."
Li Shimin sat down on the ridge of the field, not caring about the dirt in the soil, and said with a smile: "Is it true that everything is enough for you? But why do I feel that you have done something big? For example, the three questions you set up to ask questions are clearly a warning.
The officials in the court, as well as those waterwheels and equipment, you deliberately let them see the effectiveness... You offer such a huge profit, do you dare to say that you are not tempting people?"
"Yes! I'm tempting them!"
Gu Tianya didn't hesitate and nodded directly to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin looked a little cautious and couldn't help but said: "What do you want?"
At this time, there was the sound of footsteps. Li Jiancheng came over with his pockets in hand. He also sat down on the ridge of the field. The three brothers and husband happened to be sitting side by side.
Since their team had cattle pulling pears, they worked faster than those pulling pears. At this time, the fields had been plowed and the seeds had been sown on the fields. Li Jiancheng glanced at Li Shimin, then at Gu Tianya, and suddenly
He smiled and said: "What's the matter? The two brothers are starting to murmur? From the third brother's family, don't always scare your second brother. He is petty and sometimes easy to get into trouble. Erlang, don't always make such a face. Let's
My brother-in-law is not an outsider, what he wants to do is good for the Li family."
Gu Tianya murmured in frustration, pretending to be reluctant and said: "Brother, you are always like this. It's not easy for me to have a chance to scare him once."
Li Shimin laughed and said with a relaxed expression: "I knew you had something big in mind."
The three brothers looked at each other, and then looked at the officials in the field. Suddenly Gu Tianya reached out and grabbed a handful of soil, held it in his hand and said, "Zhao Ning has mentioned it to me many times, and I myself feel that I can't do it anymore."
Drag, so, taking advantage of this baby's full moon baptism, we will return Hebei Road to the Li family..."
Li Shimin looked a little solemn and couldn't help but said: "Now? Can you hold on for a while? This time I led hundreds of officials all the way and found that although Hebei Road has improved somewhat, it is still very poor. This place has been
After the war, the land and the people have long been damaged. If it is returned to the Li family now, it will be an extra burden."
He paused for a moment, and then said sincerely: "It has only been seven years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and all the Taoists in the world are still not stable. If you can continue to be in charge of Hebei Tao for a while, my second brother will be able to free up my mind.
Let’s go control other places first. When other places see some improvement, can you return Hebei Province back?”
"No!" Gu Tianya shook his head slowly.
He also looked at Li Shimin sincerely and said solemnly: "There is no barrier between us brothers, so I firmly believe that this return will definitely be made. However, people's hearts are unpredictable since ancient times. My second brother can guarantee that the officials of the Tang Dynasty will think so too."
Really? They came to congratulate me this time, indeed to make peace with me, but at the same time they also have one thought, that is, they want to get back Hebei Road as soon as possible. There is an old saying, although the world belongs to the royal family, the world belongs to the royal family.
It also belongs to officials. For such a large area as Hebei Road, those officials are not willing to give up. As long as the court is taken back, it will be governed by officials, and once officials govern it, there will be benefits. "
Li Shimin looked a little ugly and turned to look at the officials plowing the fields.
Gu Tianya chuckled and said: "Hebei Province, let's take advantage of the opportunity to return it this time. As for the 200,000 Detachment of Women, I also asked my second brother to send his direct descendants to take over. But there is something I have to say first. Zhao and I
Ning will only return the former Detachment of Women. In other words, we will not keep any of the soldiers and horses before she got married, but we will definitely not return the soldiers and horses after she married me, because they are ours.
The couple earned their own family fortune."
Li Shimin nodded slowly and said solemnly: "The Detachment of Women is Xiu Ning's hard work. It doesn't matter even if it is not returned to the family. In the end, not only did you choose to return it, but you also returned all your military power. With such great courage, no one can fault it.
Something's wrong..."
He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said: "But after this, do you still have military strength under your command? It's better to return some of the troops and horses first, leave some as a guarantee, and then return all the troops and horses after the foundation is solid.
."
"Haha, that's not necessary!"
Before Gu Tianya could speak, Li Jiancheng suddenly answered for him, saying: "Since you have chosen to return it, it is best to make it clear, otherwise there will be conflicts of interest in the future, and it will easily lead to disputes if they are mixed together. It doesn't matter between us brothers.
, I am afraid that the family and even the court will try to reach out. Even if the family and the court can understand, who can guarantee that the children of the next generation can still maintain the family relationship? When the interests are too great, it is difficult for the parents to discipline the younger generation.
When the time comes, it will be difficult for us brothers to be human beings when we are caught in the middle. If we really fight, we will definitely hurt each other's feelings."
Gu Tianya nodded, looked at Li Shimin and said: "What eldest brother said is exactly what Zhaoning and I are worried about."
Li Shimin also nodded and said: "In that case..."
Although he did not continue, the three brothers knew that the matter had been settled.
Until then, Gu Tianya slowly stated his intention and said: "Although Hebei Province has been returned, Tanzhou is my hometown, so I will stay in this state."
Li Shimin did not hesitate and agreed: "Only when you have a foundation can you ensure food and clothing. Even if you don't say anything about it, the Li family will help you do it. The reason why the father gave the tiger baby the title of Duke of Tanzhou is actually
I mean to give the entire Tanzhou to you."
He paused as he spoke, looking far away in a certain direction, and then said: "Strictly speaking, this state is not a divided country. During the first battle of Liang Kingdom, you led the troops to capture Yunwei
There are three states on behalf of you, but you only want one Yunzhou, but give up Yuzhou and Daizhou. Everyone in your family will understand that you are exchanging those two states for Tanzhou."
He paused again, looked at Gu Tianya with a smile, and said solemnly: "So, the Gu family does not owe the Li family anything. On the contrary, in this transaction, our Li family has gained an extra state."
Gu Tianya nodded with a smile and said: "The transaction is clear and clear. If there are any disputes in the future, it will be easy to break up."
Both Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng felt the same way.
It was already noon one day, and the officials who were plowing the fields were gradually coming to an end. The three brothers were sitting lazily on the ridge of the field. From a distance, they looked like three farmers chatting about their daily life. But who could know what the three of them were talking about?
This is the general trend of the world.
Gu Tianya slowly exhaled and said: "I thought about it for a long time and finally figured out one thing. If you want the people in the world to be rich, you must first make the officials greedy. If the officials don't have enough to eat, how can they make the people full? But
This greed does not allow them to embezzle the interests of the people, but throws out another huge benefit for them to embezzle."
He paused as he spoke, and then continued: "I used to think that the aristocratic family would lie on the bodies of the common people and drink blood, so I hated the aristocratic family and always thought about killing the aristocratic family. But now I find that this
In fact, there is something to be done. Since ancient times, everyone has pursued profit. This is people’s inherent selfishness. Even God cannot change this fact..."
"Since we can't change it, then we have to go with the trend. Greed for profit is not terrible, as long as we guide it well. As long as we set up a huge benefit and make this great benefit closely related to the people of the world, then whether it is an old family or a new family,
, they have to work hard in order to make big profits.”
Li Shimin's eyes were bright and he suddenly said: "For example, the water conservancy project you deliberately let everyone see will increase the income of the fields by countless amounts once it is built. In the process of increasing income, everyone will become rich together. Even if you don't force them,
They will also be competing to do this..."
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Tianya and said thoughtfully: "This is driven by profit, which is far better than forcing others with power. When you can make everyone rich, what you say is better than my future."
The emperor is more powerful."
