The Lone Star of the Tang Dynasty

"Good strategy......" Wei Zheng pondered for a moment and shook his head helplessly, and the other two were also full of sadness.

In the face of the current situation of the family's gate lords, the turbulent political situation in the imperial court, and the exploitation of the common people, everyone knows the importance of cutting the feudal domain, but this matter is not easy to say. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, with his resolute and resolute character and superior resourcefulness, racked his brains to design the Tui En Order, which quietly weakened the power of the vassal states and avoided provoking a full-scale revolt. However, once this method is recognized, it is obviously impossible to repeat the old tricks, not only will it fail to achieve the expected effect, but it may cause chaos in the world.

Since the fall of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the land of China has experienced hundreds of years of war and strife, and if the contradictions are intensified again, the consequences will be unimaginable. How to properly deal with these family forces that appear to be scholarly heirlooms but actually sit on one side, everyone has no good plan to offer. If the feudal domain is not cut, the dynasty is likely to follow in the footsteps of the Western Jin Dynasty and face the fate of crossing to the south in just twenty or thirty years, and eventually fall into the whirlpool of civil strife.

Fang Xuanling looked at the gloomy scene in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "What else can I do about this? "

Li Jing also shook his head and sighed, he knew very well the importance of cutting the feudal domain to the country, but because he couldn't find a feasible way, everyone could only do nothing.

Fang Xuanling saw that the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and called the maid to serve wine to soothe his mood. People often say that they use wine to eliminate their sorrows, but when wine enters the bowels, the problem still exists.

Du Ruhui quietly gave birth to a thought in his heart: Perhaps, the mysterious highness can have a solution. After all, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, and Wei Zheng had never seen His Highness's talent and insight with their own eyes, and although they expressed admiration for his identity, they did not consider asking his opinion on major matters related to the fate of the country. And Du Ruhui had the honor to witness His Royal Highness's political demeanor, and vaguely felt that he might be able to get inspiration from him. However, at this time, he was slightly drunk, and Du Ruhui also realized that he couldn't act hastily, in case he angered the family gate valve, he was afraid that it would have adverse effects, so he decided to calm down and think carefully about how to operate.

At the same time, in a village outside Youzhou City, Li Changge was writing in his study. A few days ago, Li Er's arrival gave him a lot of inspiration. Using his newfound penicillin refining technology, he sold a small number of finished products, and the results were enthusiastic. At first, each grain was priced at twenty taels of silver, but with the rapid spread of word of mouth, even the dignitaries and nobles in Chang'an City heard the news and rushed to buy it. Today, the price has soared to 100 taels of gold.

Li Changge originally planned to transform into a foreigner, but he realized financial freedom overnight, and thousands of taels of silver were piled up in the house. , this feels too cool~ Although not all the profits belong to him, this sudden experience of getting rich makes him sigh that the power of antibiotics is comparable to "liquid gold".

"Childe, your afternoon tea is ready. The maid walked into the study with a cup of fresh milk and a stack of delicate pastries on the tray in her hand.

Li Changge glanced at it, picked up a piece of pudding-shaped pastry to taste, and couldn't help but praise: "Well, Ying'er's craftsmanship is getting more and more exquisite, and this pudding is really getting more and more delicious." "

Li Changge's current life is comfortable and leisurely, not only adding the daily part of tea tasting in the afternoon, but even starting the idea of letting the maids change into maid clothes. Especially Wu Meiniang, who is about the same age as herself, but considering that she is not a relative of the emperor, these thoughts are temporarily left in the bottom of her heart.

"Childe ......" Mian'er wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's wrong?" Li Changge asked suspiciously.

"Childe, when the slave went out to buy ingredients this morning, I heard that the price of penicillin on the market has ......."

"How has it been? It has risen to fifty taels of silver a grain, or is it one hundred taels?" Li Changge understood what Mian'er wanted to say, and guessed with a smile.

"Childe, it's been fried to a hundred taels of gold. Mian'er replied in a whisper.

"One hundred taels of gold?!" Li Changge was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously touched his chin and pondered. He knew that the production process of penicillin soil method was complicated, requiring twenty or thirty processes, and it could not be stopped for several days, and the success rate was not high. At the beginning, he set the price of twenty taels of silver a grain, which was not a sky-high asking price, but he did not expect that this price would be speculated by the market to such an outrageous level.

"Childe?" Mian'er saw that Li Changge was deep in thought, and called softly.

"Oh, I see. Li Changge came back to his senses and sighed, "It seems that the world is peaceful, and the living standards of the people have improved." "

"Childe, as far as the slave maid knows, it is not ordinary people who buy penicillin, but people from the Wang's mansion in Youzhou. Mian'er added.

"What do you mean?" Li Changge was slightly surprised, and then suddenly realized, "Yes, the Wang family is the largest family in Youzhou City, derived from the Taiyuan Wang family, and it is one of the five surnames and seven wangs. They buy penicillin, so the market price is pushed up to this point. "

Li Changge knew in his heart that the Wang family at this time had strong financial resources, and regarded penicillin, a special drug, as a treasure, and might collect it as an heirloom, just like the alchemy that was popular at that time. However, he felt deeply helpless about this: under such a high price, ordinary people could not afford to buy it, and for a family like Wang, this cost was just a drop in the bucket.

At this moment, a thought flashed in Li Changge's mind - if he had the opportunity to enter the imperial court, he could organize the mass production of penicillin, even if he could not achieve the low price of modern assembly line production, it was enough to use the hype psychology of the families to guide them to raise prices, and then lower the prices and pit them fiercely, which could not only reduce the burden on the people, but also combat the arrogance of the family.

Just as Li Changge was thinking, Mian'er's voice suddenly came from the front hall: "Madam, why are you here?".
