The Hajj will soon begin!

Everyone lined up and walked inside, to be precise, it was the bigwigs of Tiance Mansion who walked inside first, and then some old ministers in the Wude period, of course, they all entered it according to the rank of their official positions.

But except for Li Yi!

Li Yi has no official position, but the title is high, the duke level, or the county duke, and then he will be the prince of the country, but no matter what, Li Yi is properly standing at the front, following Cheng Yanjin and others.

Fang Xuanling and the others did not pull Li Yi down to the literati's side, Li Yi is now being watched by the family, and it is easy to become a target on the literati's side, but on the military general's side, Li Yi is the safest!

I didn't see Cheng Yanjin, Yu Chigong, Zhang Gongjin and others, all surrounding Li Yi, and even Qin Qiong was standing by Li Yi's side.

This group of people is obviously grabbing Li Yi's breakfast to eat, but in fact, everyone knows that this is to help Li Yi disperse hatred, and tell everyone that Li Yi is a member of their military general group!

The contradictions between the civil ministers and military generals of the Tang Dynasty are not high, unlike the contradictions of the Song Dynasty!

After all, most of the Wenchen here have actually been military generals, such as Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji, Du Ruhui, Tang Jian and others, all of whom have killed people on the battlefield.

The same is true for other families, because since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, battlefield feats are the most important, and joining the army to kill the enemy is the best way to enter the high-end of Datang!

Li Yi's cart of breakfast was eaten up, and a group of generals were still unsatisfied, Cheng Biting Jin shouted at Li Yi that he was not unkind, why are Li Yi's steamed buns more delicious!

Li Yicai won't tell them that this steamed bun uses better baking powder, and when they used to bite their cook, there was no baking powder......

Today's place of the court is in the Taiji Palace, generally speaking, large-scale court meetings are here, small-scale, that is, in the Liangyi Palace!

Li Yi followed Cheng Yanjin and others to stand together, Wei Chigong rushed to help Li Yi row seats, the ancient people respected the left, generally speaking, literati were on the left, Cheng Yanjin and others had the intention to grab the left, but they had no choice but to stand on the right, and Li Yi's position was below this group of princes.

Standing at the forefront of the military, it was Qin Qiong, followed by Li Jing and others, Wei Chigong was very stable, because it was not yet the time when he was most arrogant, and this was the Great Imperial Meeting, Wei Chigong knew how to be proportionate, and he couldn't be ashamed!

The emperor soon went to court, there was no so-called three shouts, everyone bowed down and shouted: "I have seen a saint", even if it is to meet the emperor.

First of all, Li Shimin first came to the reward.

At yesterday's enthronement ceremony, Li Shimin only gave the title and lord, but the "food yi" and the specific rewards and rewards were not explained in detail.

To put it bluntly, yesterday was Li Shimin's big day, and today is the big day of many heroes!

Reward for meritorious deeds!

A group of people who made the first merit in Xuanwu Gate were rewarded first, Cheng Biting Jin, Wei Chi Gong, Qin Qiong, Zhang Gongjin and others were rewarded in turn, among which Cheng Biting Jin and others became generals, and Li Jing directly served as the secretary of the Ministry of War, and it turned out that Du Ruhui was in charge of this position.

followed by Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and others, these people are all the first achievements of the Xuanwu Sect, and they have all become national princes, and the rewards will not be less, Li Shimin knows that now is not the time to be stingy, a large sum of money and silver is taken out of the treasury and rewarded, and the food should be given as much as it should be, not only not less, but also more.

The rewards on Li Yi's side have also come down directly!

There are 2,000 households in the food estate, but as soon as this point came out, someone ran out directly, shouting that Li Yi had overstepped the system!

Although Li Yi is a duke, he is only a county duke, you must know that Cheng Biting Jin, who is the prince of the country, has only 1,800 households, and Qin Qiong's bad karma is only 2,200 households!

The population of the entire Tang Dynasty is only two million households, and if this more reward is given, the country's finances will be less!

This group of officials didn't know that Li Shimin had gradually stopped taking agricultural taxes as a matter in his heart!

Refined salt has now started to be sold secretly!

In the month that the Turks entered the palace, Li Shimin secretly sent people to take the refined salt to be sold outside the customs, and Tubo and Goguryeo, and even Loulan and other countries were very coveted for refined salt!

The price of refined salt is a mess!

The point is that although refined salt is also sold in Chang'an, the price is not particularly high, and outside of Datang, the price of refined salt has almost increased by 20 or even 30 times!

All the salt mines in the world belong to Li Shimin, and in the blink of an eye, Li Shimin's empty inner treasury became rich.

Agricultural tax?

Just kidding, as long as the high-yield grain on Li Yi's side comes out, the agricultural tax will no longer be the foundation of Datang!

Li Shimin now believes in Li Yi very much, the key is that after the refined salt was given to Li Shimin, Li Shimin really saw the money back!

This refined salt is not a cow or horse, it is not a matter of buying it and using it for decades, but a long-term business!

And, in the north, those people are even more scarce of salt!

Therefore, the price is naturally higher and the demand is greater!

So the question is, Li Shimin calculated the money and found that the money he could make by selling illicit salt was actually higher than the annual tax revenue of the national treasury, so did he still need taxes?

Yes, on the surface, it is needed, but secretly, Li Shimin can't look down on this money anymore!

The business is getting bigger and bigger, and the refined salt produced every day is no longer given to the sergeants, but is replaced by copper coins and directly given money, if Li Shimin deducts a little, the money does not need to be given!

In addition, Li Yi's store also had a batch of dividends from Li Shimin, and after the end of July, Li Shimin got his first batch of dividends.

Sixteen thousand!

Thirty percent!

This means that Li Yi's sales volume that month was as high as 54,000!

This made Li Shimin almost drool, but fortunately, although the unit price of salt is small, it can't stand the quantity!

There are 2,000 households in the food town, and Li Shimin really doesn't pay attention to it!

He has completely awakened the soul of business, and he understands what Li Yi means!

If we want the common people to become rich, we must let commerce flow, and as long as there is enough food in the whole country, then the remaining surplus labor force is best to develop commerce, or naturally, to play commerce!

In the end, the court meeting was over, Li Yihuan went home happily, and the palace quickly sent someone to send the rewarded things, Li Yi was extremely satisfied, of which there were three hundred taels of gold alone!
