154. All poor

In the end, this incident ended with several officials being demoted, especially the Censor Wu, who was demoted to the local area and became a small official.

After a fight, many people finally looked back and found that the biggest winner was the emperor. Not only did they successfully gain popularity, but they also beat some of the most powerful gentry.

You see, the people in Hedong Road have written tens of thousands of people, and some people have traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an City to file a lawsuit against the emperor. You have caused such a big thing. Depreciation is considered light, and it will never be used again without any explanation. That is all for you to give face to these aristocratic families.

After this beating, in a short period of time, the Chang'an City will probably be able to calm down for a while.

The emperor and the aristocratic families, in this era, it was such a mutual restraint and compromise relationship. It was not that Li Shimin would not be able to deal with these aristocratic families, but that he was born into an aristocratic family.

Although their Li family was often questioned and underestimated by some families who claimed to be profound in history and had a strong roots in this era, Li Shimin's grandfather was Li Hu, one of the eight pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty, and he also had a mixed relationship with other gentry families. So he was indeed from a gentry family.

So although there are constant conflicts within the group, Li Shimin never thought of taking over the entire aristocratic group, leaving only the Li family to dominate. Although those aristocratic families often make trouble for him, they still recognize the noble status of the Li family. They can still live in peace and do not need to make trouble until they die. This is very different from Wu Zetian's later situation.

Speaking of Wu Zetian, not long after their family returned from mourning, they made rumors that their brothers were disrespectful to their mistresses. Then Yang took her three daughters back to Chang'an City by herself.

This orphan and widowed mother returned to Chang'an City to live. Her mother's family was a royal family in her hometown. Although her bloodline was noble, she still had no power or power in the end. It would not be a good time for her to live.

The Luo family is not having a good time now. In just over a month, they have gone from a wealthy family with a lot of savings to a pauper. Not only do they spend all their money, they still owe a lot of debts.

However, Luo Yong was also very pleased that someone would lend him money at such a time.

What made Luo Yong even more gratified was that although not all of his disciples had extraordinary courage, when encountering a crisis, some people would be panicked and were in a state of terror, but they always stood by Luo Yong and did not carry him away because of fear.

After this incident, all Luo Yong's disciples lived in Xipo Village. Some lived in the sheep shed, and some lived in the cement workshop workhouse. They divided into two groups of people to guard the east and west sides of Xipo Village, the south side of the ravine and the north side of the mountains. As long as they guarded the east and west sides, people outside would not want to quietly touch Xipo Village.

The craftsmen and Jingtie promised by His Majesty the Emperor have not yet arrived here. Even if they arrive, Luo Yong's original group of men still has to continue to build threshing machines. Since it has been promised, the sooner it is fulfilled, the better. Don't ask people to wait too long.

So many craftsmen work and live here, and they eat a lot every day, as well as the consumption of raw materials, and although they said they didn’t want Luo Yong’s wages, could Luo Yong really make them work in vain? After all, they are all people who want to support their families.

These people don’t need wages. Luo Yong can save some money here, but in places he can’t see, there may be some elderly people, women and children going hungry. These craftsmen who come to work for him are all pillars of the family.

Luo Yong racked his brains all day long to think about how to make money. After thinking about it, he still thought of the goose-vulley pillow. The profit of this transaction should be not low and not eye-catching.

However, before this, Luo Yong still had to collect enough goose feathers first, and wait until he had enough goods, and then do promotion and advertising. As long as the promotion is successful, profits will naturally not be a problem.

Luo Yong hadn't moved the hundred pieces of silk that the emperor had previously rewarded. The silk from the palace was all good silk, which was much better than the ordinary silk cloth bought outside. The price of using it to make velvet pillows is naturally not lower.

How to play this time’s advertisement? Luo Yong has been thinking about it recently. After all, the pillow is still relatively private, unlike clothes and shoes that can be worn on the street...

At the same time, on Chang'an City, His Majesty the Emperor, who is the biggest winner of this incident, is actually not as proud as some people imagine.

"Your Majesty, the fine iron stored in the warehouse has been used to cast the car chain a few days ago. Now I suddenly need so much fine iron again, so I really can't take it out." As soon as I heard that I had to allocate so many fine irons to Xipo Village, the relevant officials immediately complained.

"How could it not be taken out? Didn't you ask you to buy it with money?" There were no fine iron ore transported to Chang'an City recently. The emperor had previously considered taking money to collect some of it from the public. After all, at this time, salt and iron wine existed together with the official and private enterprises.

"But I said I had no money." The official said dejectedly.

He had previously received the emperor's order to get the money from the Ministry of Revenue, but he told him that he could not afford so much money at all. He was worried and was still thinking about how much money there was in the warehouse now, whether it was really no money or fake no money. Before he could find out the result, the Emperor asked him to come again.

"There is no money?" His Majesty the Emperor said in surprise. He remembered that there were obviously some before.

"It's both boiling cement and building roads for the people. The money is not spent like running water." The officials were helpless.

"In the opinion of all my dear friends, what should I do now?" He was the emperor and he had to do it when he said that this batch of fine iron must be in place no matter what.

"..." These ministers were silent. When they were so popular, why didn't they come to ask their opinions? Now that they have no money, they come to ask their opinions, whether they can make money or what?

"..." The emperor was worried at this time when the money was coming from.

Those who are in charge of the Ministry of Revenue will not be willing to take out the money if they say that they will definitely not take out the money. Indeed, the treasury of a country cannot be covered without any cover.
