"A wealth can rival a country? What wealth can rival a country? Who is rich can rival a country?"

A majestic voice suddenly sounded in the hall. Empress Changsun and Princess Yuzhang looked up and saw the emperor walking towards him with great strides.

"Daughter, pay homage to my father!" Princess Yuzhang greeted her gracefully.

"Yu Zhang is willing to come back. No wonder the queen is so happy today." Li Shimin laughed.

Princess Yuzhang hurriedly said, "It's because my daughter is ignorant, and I'm worried about my father and mother."

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "It is also because the Charity Federation is busy. Besides, you are in Sujiazhuang, so your mother and your father are relieved."

Li Shimin nodded slightly and said, "What the Charity Federation has done recently is booming and is gradually expanding, and has treated many children. This is great."

Princess Yuzhang couldn't help but feel happy and smiled, "Thank you for your praise, my daughter will continue to work hard."

Li Shimin said curiously: "What did you say just now? What kind of wealth can be compared to a country? Who can be compared to a country?"

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "What about Su Cheng."

It turned out to be Su Cheng. Li Shimin couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Su Cheng might have been rich before, but it would have been impossible to have wealth in the future. If he monopolizes the maritime trade route to the Western Regions, he would have been rich in rivaling the country, but now he chose to announce the maritime trade route."

"Although the cake is big, but so many nobles and families have participated, how much can Su Cheng get? What's more, I have also participated, and my Maritime Bureau can still collect taxes! The more people go out to sea, the more taxes I will collect. How could Su Cheng be rich enough to rival a country?"

He has figured it out these days. Seeing that more and more people are participating in going out to sea, he is happier. The fleet will go out to sea next month, and the Maritime Mansion Department in Haizhou will be able to collect a wave of taxes.

It's so wonderful to be able to collect another wave of taxes when the fleet comes back.

Although Su Cheng was rich, it was unlikely that he could compete with his country if he wanted to be rich. Although the Tang Dynasty is quite poor compared to Su Cheng now, he will soon become rich.

This is what Li Shimin thought so himself. If the monarchs of other countries were told, they would definitely not be able to help crying. The prosperity and strength of the Tang Dynasty were already known to everyone, but the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty himself thought the Tang Dynasty was quite poor. They really wanted to ask, "Is it shameless?"

Li Shimin never thought so before. It was not until Su Cheng came to Chang'an that he suddenly felt like he was a poor Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "It's not about going to sea to open a navigation company. Su Cheng and Changle are discussing opening a money house."

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this. His mind was full of opening a business in the sea. Who would have thought that another money shop would pop up suddenly.

So the question is, what is the money house?

No matter what, since it was made by Su Cheng, it must be amazing and we must pay attention to it. Li Shimin asked in confusion: "What is this money house for?"

Princess Yuzhang quickly explained and said again what she had just explained.

Li Shimin opened his mouth in surprise and did not close it for a long time.

It wasn't that he didn't react. In fact, he understood after only half of his hearing. It was because he understood that he became even more excited.

As the emperor, he handled national affairs every day, so he could feel the trouble of transporting money every day. Even the court felt it was troublesome, not to mention ordinary people, not to mention those merchants!

It takes a long time to transport thousands of stakes to a very distant place. It is still so heavy and you still have to worry. So Li Shimin deeply felt how convenient it would be for the people if this money house was opened.

This is a good thing! This is a great good thing!

Since it is so convenient for the people, this money house will definitely be able to open and it will definitely be particularly popular.

what does that mean?

This means wealth is coming!

He didn't believe that Su Cheng would open a money shop for free, and he would definitely charge a certain fee. Even if Su Cheng didn't collect much, he couldn't hold on to the popularity of the money shop and would definitely make a fortune.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin's saliva almost flowed.

Because this is a business that is ineffective, and it requires any cost. It is just a right hand. It can obtain a steady stream of money, but it can also bring great convenience to the world and even praise it. This is simply a genius creativity!

After his thoughts were turned on, Li Shimin slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, why didn't I expect it! Why didn't I expect such a simple idea? If there was a money house, how convenient would the people in the world be!"

"This money house should be opened by the imperial court, which is the most fair and the people must trust the most."

Princess Yuzhang was stunned when she heard this. Sister Changle asked her to enter the palace to vent her with her mother. She never expected that her father would be so excited that she wanted to open a money house.

She really didn't think about this, so now she was confused. Her sister and brother-in-law wanted to open a money shop, and her father also wanted to open a money shop. What should I do? Who should she help?

Empress Changsun was not surprised when she heard this. She had already expected this, because every time Su Cheng came up with a good idea, the emperor would drool in greed, and she had long been used to it.

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty also wants to open a money shop?"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Of course I want to open a money shop. Of course, I am not to make money, I am to provide convenience to the people!"

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is really admirable for the country and the people. But have your Majesty ever thought that to open a money house, not just one place, but many places in the Tang Dynasty, so it takes a lot of money to turn over, and millions of coins are indispensable. Your Majesty, do you have that much money?"

Could it be that his great Emperor of Tang Dynasty didn’t even have millions of coins?

Of course there is, there is!

But the problem is that he cannot use all these millions of yuan to open a money house. How can the court run? How can he pay his salary?

So Li Shimin couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought of this, and said helplessly: "There are still millions of treasurys in the treasury, but this money cannot be used to open a money house!"

Empress Changsun smiled comfortably and said, "Then she can only let Su Cheng and Changle open a money shop. Anyway, they will also bring convenience to the people of the world!"

"That's right!" Li Shimin nodded slightly. No matter how much he said, it is better to open a money house between Su Cheng and Changle than those big families, so he could only comfort himself like this.

However, Li Shimin's heart was still as bloody as he had a business that was full of money and no cost, but he couldn't control it.

It's not because of anything else, it's because of poverty.
