    "Your Highness, you have been working hard to develop industry and commerce, but have you ever thought about what impact it will have on you when industry and commerce develops?" Wang An continued to ask with a serious face.

    The impact on yourself?  Li Min was slightly stunned. This question reminded him of when he first came to the Tang Dynasty. Because he was worried that the struggle for the throne would affect him, in order to protect himself, he planned to use business interests to unite a group of powerful people around him.  However, as his strength grew, his ambitions also grew. He was no longer satisfied with this kind of self-preservation, but wanted to use his identity as a descendant to completely rewrite the history of the Tang Dynasty and find a new path for the entire nation.  path, even though he doesn't know whether it is always the right path?  But at least it's correct now.

    Li Min is very clear about what he wants, and industry and commerce are one of the important tools for him to achieve his goals. Therefore, although Li Min has been strongly supporting the development of industry and commerce, in fact, what he wants in his heart is just to  It is just a tool that can be used. It has never occurred to me that this tool is not completely within my control, and sometimes it may even affect me in turn.

    Seeing the hesitation on Li Min's face, Wang An understood immediately and reminded him again: "Your Highness, with the development of industry and commerce, emerging industrial and commercial owners will inevitably obtain a large amount of manpower, material and financial resources, and their status will also increase accordingly.  Improvement, I know this is the result that His Highness has been pursuing, but Your Highness, have you ever thought about what these industrial and commercial owners are most worried about as their status improves?"

    Li Min heard this.  He probably guessed what Wang An wanted to say, but he smiled and said: "Haha. Mr. Wang wants to say that those industrial and commercial owners are worried that their hard-earned status will not be guaranteed. So they will take some measures to  To keep your status and influence?¡±

    "Your Highness is indeed smart. When industrial and commercial owners have strong influence, they will inevitably become interested in the court. And the most powerful person in the court is naturally His Majesty the Emperor who sits on the throne. His Highness happens to be the powerful person on the throne.  Competitors, because these industrial and commercial owners will definitely try their best to push His Highness to the throne, but as for His Majesty's temper, I believe you know better than me!" The king said with a serious face, stroking his beard.

    Li Min nodded after hearing this. Li Shimin had experienced a struggle for the throne. In the end, he even killed his brother in order to sit on the throne. Therefore, what he disliked the most was his son's struggle for the throne. In addition, his character was very domineering. Whatever he gave you, you  You have to take it, and you can't reach out and grab it if he doesn't want to give it to you, even if it's his most beloved son.  Li Tai in history is a good example of this.  Li Shimin loved him extremely, but it was because Li Tai showed unusual enthusiasm for the throne and tried every means to gain opportunities for himself that aroused Li Shimin's resentment. As a result, the throne fell into the hands of Li Zhi, who had always been the most obedient.

    Li Min is very clear about this, but when industry and commerce develop, the business class will definitely try their best to seek sustainable development.  Push yourself to the throne.  In this way, Li Shimin violated Li Shimin's taboo. Although Li Min had made an agreement with Li Shimin at the beginning, anything could happen in the battle for the throne, which would probably arouse Li Shimin's suspicion.

    It seems that I have to hurry up with my plan, otherwise it will be really bad if I get involved in the troubled waters of the battle for the throne.  Thinking of this, Li Min finally made up his mind. After taking care of the affairs in Chang'an, the foundation he had laid should be enough. By then, he could implement the later plan he had set. At the same time, with this plan, he could also temporarily  Get out of the big whirlpool of the struggle for the throne.

    Thinking of this, Li Min smiled at Wang An and said: "Thank you Mr. Wang for the reminder, but I have other plans regarding the throne. I will never write all my ambitions on my face like my fourth brother.  Let alone others messing up the formation!"

    Although Li Min did not answer directly, Wang An finally felt relieved when he saw how confident he was. Since he had decided to seek refuge with Li Min, he naturally made a comprehensive analysis and understanding of Li Min's character and knew that the other party was a person who knew the importance of things.  People like this will never make random guarantees on such a major matter.

    After talking about this matter, before Wang Kuang and the others came back, the two of them turned the topic to the development of industry and commerce. Although Wang An had been staying in Taiyuan, he had learned from some of the information he had heard on weekdays, and  In the intelligence that Wang Kuang often brought, he analyzed the general situation of the world very thoroughly.

    For example, when the Five Surnames and Qiwang suppressed industry and commerce, he pointedly pointed out that this was basically a battle between the industrial and commercial owners who sucked the blood and sweat of workers, and the big landlords who squeezed the flesh and blood of farmers. There was no right or wrong, but only **  A naked struggle for interests.  In addition, he also pointed out that this battle cannot be resolved in a short time. The suppression of industry and commerce by the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes is just the prelude to this battle. Although he, like Li Min, both believe that industry and commerce will definitely be able to achieve victory in the end.  Victory but wantIt is sheer fantasy to uproot the entrenched big landowner class with just one victory.

    Li Min fully agreed with Wang An's views. Talking to a person with such attainments in business really suited his taste, and the novel business models he proposed also irritated Wang An.  The two of them became more and more interested in each other as they chatted, and they both felt like they had met each other so late.

    When Mrs. Wang came back with Wang Kuang and Cui Yu, she saw the two people chatting so lively. They all looked at each other and smiled, not daring to disturb them. The three of them all went into the kitchen to prepare. When Li Min and Wang An were attracted by the smell of the food,  Tempting, they felt unbearably hungry in their bellies, and only then did they realize that the sky had turned completely dark, the moon had risen to the treetops, and the big table next to them was already filled with the food prepared by Mrs. Wang.  The food and lanterns had been lit around them. The two of them were just chatting and didn't even notice the changes around them.

    Seeing this, the two of them laughed at each other, and then Wang An said: "Your Highness, the knowledge of industry and commerce is as vast as the sea, and it cannot be discussed clearly in a short while. Let's fill our stomachs first!"

    "Haha~, it's just what I want. I just want to taste Mrs. Wang's cooking!" Li Min covered his stomach and laughed. Zhongqian didn't eat well, and now he is really hungry.

    When Wang An heard this, he immediately invited Li Min to sit down and eat. Wang Kuang and Cui Yu were accompanying them. Originally, Mrs. Wang, as a female family member, could not share the same table with them, but Li Min didn't care and insisted on Mrs. Wang.  They also sat and ate together because he and Wang Kuang were usually brothers. His mother was his elder. How could a younger person eat at the table but ask an older person to sit aside?

    Mrs. Wang could not refute Li Min's fallacies, and Wang An usually respected his wife very much. Seeing that Li Min respected his wife so much, she was very happy. She didn't care about any reasoning at the moment, and then the old wife sat next to him.  And personally served her a bowl of rice.  Looking at this suffering couple, Li Min also sighed in his heart. Later generations often say that husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, flying apart when disaster strikes. However, the couple in front of him told himself with practical actions that there are still many people in this world.  There is a kind of feeling, and its name is mutual affection!

    After dinner, he formally expressed his intention to recruit Wang An, and promised him the position of Wang Fu. The so-called Wang Fu, as the name suggests, is the prince's teacher. Originally, as long as the prince opened the palace, he would be appointed by Li Shimin.  The teacher is responsible for teaching the prince and pointing out the gains and losses. It can be said to be a very important position. However, Li Min was too stubborn back then, and no one was willing to be his teacher, so the position of Wang Fu remained vacant. Later, Li Min became famous, although there were  Many people are tempted, but they are afraid that they will not be able to teach this smart prince, so until now, there has been no royal Fu in Prince Li Min's palace.

    Wang Fu has a very high rank. He is a high-ranking official of the third rank. He wears a purple robe. It can be said that except for Li Min and Wen Xin, Wang Fu has the highest rank in the entire palace. Although his power is not as great as that of Chang Shi, he has great control.  Kuan, as long as he doesn't like it, he has the right to intervene. It can be said to be one of the most important positions in the entire palace.  In addition, because he shoulders the important task of teaching the prince, the position of Wangfu must be appointed by Li Shimin himself. Li Min has no right to appoint him. However, with the favor he currently receives, as long as he recommends it, Wang An can be appointed Wangfu.  The seat is also very simple.

    Hearing that Li Min actually asked him to serve as Wang Fu, Wang An, who had always been very indifferent, couldn't help but be a little excited. It wasn't that he was excited about the position of Wang Fu, but from this incident, he saw Li Min's attitude towards him.  Valuing, this valuing is actually an affirmation of what he has learned throughout his life.

    I miss him, Wang An, who wasted half his life, suffering from the glare and ridicule of other people. Even his father severed ties with him, and his son did not dare to recognize him. If he had not had a good wife who was always by his side, he would have been dead long ago.  Just die.  But he didn't expect that he was almost at the age when he knew his destiny, but he met a wise master who not only appreciated his talent, but also promised him a high position. For him, this not only meant changing his destiny, but also meant  With him, Wang An, he will welcome his new life with a brand new attitude, letting everyone in the world know that Wang An of Taiyuan is a rare wise man in the world!

    Thinking of this, Wang An's original heart suddenly surged with pride. At the same time, besides admiring Li Min, he also felt an indescribable gratitude. After thanking Li Min, he had already made up his mind.  No matter what difficulties he encounters, he must give full play to what he has learned and help this young man complete the great cause in his heart!

    While Li Min was recruiting Wang An, there was another group of people in Taiyuan City who were also secretly discussing the matter. However, it was different from Li Min and the others' cheerfulness. When these people were talking, the whole place was enveloped in a heavy feeling.  in the atmosphere.  (To be continued)
