Let’s talk about the decision made by Duan Lun and Dai Zhou for Li Shimin and paid 100 million taels of silver in the court, which eventually led to some bad results.

After all, the money is limited, so the money spent here is too much, and the other side has to be deducted.

On that day, Dai Zhou went to the Daming Palace to look for Li Shimin.

His expression was not good, and he seemed to have extremely important things to say.

However, Li Shimin is in a good mood these days.

Some time ago, he watched the wedding movie for six days in a row. On the seventh day, he gave the film to Li Ke and asked Li Ke to preserve it well.

That's the end of his good mood.

Speaking of Dai Zhou coming to the Daming Palace, the note in his hand was a little heavy.

It was all the way to Li Shimin.

He said, "Your Majesty! I have something to repay!"

"What's the matter? Tell me!"

What Li Shimin had on his desk turned out to be a photo, with himself locked off the cover of the movie film.

It was actually framed with people, and the golden border looked very luxurious.

And this photo seems to be a little smaller.

It feels like it has been cut off.

At this moment, he was looking at himself above him.

"It's about food under the corridor!"

Dai Zhou's voice was not loud. The more he did, the bigger the matter was.

Generally speaking, only good things will be said loudly, but bad things can be said in a low voice.

Speaking of food under the corridor.

It was the public kitchen system of the Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, the emperor was promoted to the sympathy of officials. For the Tang Dynasty meeting, which started at five o'clock in the morning and finally arrived late, the public canteen system was a great virtue.

Because the morning court was about to go to court at 5:50 at that time, and it lasted until noon. According to the discussion on the topic, there is still a possibility of extension. A large number of officials who were hungry, dizzy, and had low blood sugar and high blood pressure. How could they have the energy to handle government affairs?

Therefore, in order to sympathize with officials, Emperor Taizong of Tang first advocated the public kitchen system.

The specifications for this under-the-lane food are extremely high.

The daily provisions of 100 dishes, three-bite sheep, and various special sacrificial festivals and solar terms by officials of fifth ranks, are provided with special sweets, fruits, health porridge and river food, which greatly satisfy the officials' desires.

"What can I do with food under the corridor?"

Li Shimin was not worried at all.

"Recently, some officials have been dissatisfied with their diet!"

Dai Zhou said so.

When Li Shimin heard this, he became angry.

I was in a good mood, but now I am becoming very irritable.

"I give them good things, but they are dissatisfied with my kindness? Do these people don't want to live anymore? Do you want me to cancel it?"

He didn't understand why these officials were like this and were dissatisfied with their system?

"Your Majesty, it's not what you think!"

"What is that?"

"Recently, due to the lack of capital turnover, the food in the corridor has been directly affected. Therefore, there have been some changes in expenditure."

People have a mouth that holds their mouths, and you keep giving people something delicious. If the food becomes worse one day, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among everyone.

This is a human bad nature.

On the contrary, if you keep eating bad food and give people a few good meals, you will be grateful to everyone.

"How much does it cost to eat in the corridor for a day? Isn't the financial money enough to fill the stomachs of those officials?" Li Shimin stood up and said angrily.

Speaking of the public kitchen system, it is specialized in charge of hundreds of departments, with strict regulations from procurement to chef selection and cooking. The establishment of the Sanba Kitchen Yamen appeared during the Xuanzong period. He was a full-time yamen for cooking and accepted financial appropriations from the court.

In fact, Li Shimin has been a little dissatisfied with the expenditure in this area after several years of development.

Especially at the beginning of last year and when the court was in trouble, he also thought about reducing expenditures in this regard, but was denied by officials.

"Your Majesty, I have a saying that I don't know whether to speak or not!"

"speak!"

"But I am afraid that your Majesty will be unhappy if you talk!"

"Dai Zhou, just say it, I will not blame you!"

"Your Majesty, because of the dietary industry, there is a lot of oil and water!"

Dai Zhou said so.

There is a lot of oil and water in the management corridor, and corruption and other things happen often.

Under this system, the disadvantages became very obvious when the imperial court lacked funds.

"What? What do you mean by Dai Zhou?"

"If there is too much oil and water, it is inevitable that someone will not be able to withstand temptation and thus embezzle..."

"What?" Li Shimin was shocked.

How could this happen? He was obviously kind-hearted, but how could it be a bad thing?

Dai Zhou said again: "I haven't discovered it before. After all, there is nothing wrong with some accounts when they go in and out. However, because there was something wrong with the Ministry of Revenue funds recently, I thought about what the situation was, and found that there were dozens of corruption people in the Hundred Divisions!"

"These people actually dared to embezzle and cut them straight away!"

Li Shimin shouted.

The problem of eating in ancient times was a huge problem. Although the Tang Dynasty was strong, a large number of officials and families and slaves were included in the supply range of the public kitchen, which greatly increased the burden on the country. The control of the late Tang government further decreased, which caused officials to eat and drink, get drunk and waste in their work, and the public kitchen became a bargain and casino for officials.

Little corruption is just one part of this.

This is also a problem I discovered at the beginning.

If not solved, there may be a big gap in the future.

Dai Zhou said, "Your Majesty, if the people who kill them will not change the future will follow them! I think this system must be changed!"

"Why cancel it! Let the minister bring food to the court!"

Li Shimin came up with something even more amazing.

But he was still too naive.

Because as a national welfare for officials, the public kitchen will basically not be abolished once the official class tastes the sweetness.

He wanted to abolish it, let alone other officials refused.

Dai Zhou would not agree, after all, he was also a beneficiary.

People have selfish intentions, and this is not impossible to solve.

So he said, "Your Majesty, this matter is to give all officials a benefit to show your majesty's kindness! It is to show your majesty's benevolence, righteousness and love for the people! If it is cancelled, it may not be good."

"What do you think I'm going to do?"

Li Shimin asked back.

"I think it's better to go and see how the Sixth Prince and the others did it? Maybe they can learn from their experience!"

Dai Zhou said so.

The Chang'an headquarters of Shengtang Group has hundreds of thousands of employees, all of whom are having dinner in Shengtang Group.

If you can figure out how these people solve the problem of eating, or you can learn something from Li Yan.

He could make them full if hundreds of thousands of people eat well, but can't Li Shimin face the civil and military officials?

When Li Shimin heard this, he felt that something was reasonable.

Then he spoke and said something.

The following words made Dai Zhou difficult again.

this……

But with Dai Zhou's shrewdness, this matter really cannot defeat him.

No matter what, I have to pull someone into the water.
