Chapter 24: General Angry Youth, V

Su Qianran was very gentle and asked people to serve tea and give a seat to the cramped and restless Hubu Shangshu. Waiting for the waiter to retreat before he slowly spoke, "I know what you are doing, and I understand your difficulties. But it won't be so empty that the treasury will be so empty, right?" The big cadres in Mo Tang's memory can be regarded as strong soldiers, strong horses, and rich countries and strong people.

"Although the treasury is not abundant, it can still maintain expenses. It's just that this compassionate payment is an extra expense. The minister saw that His Majesty was planning to continue this compassionate money for a long time. "Tobe Shangshu is in trouble. "The treasury is already struggling to make ends meet. Every year is a huge expense. โ€

"This time, the wealth of the Yu family and the Zhenguo Gong will definitely be able to support the compassionate money this time. By reducing the amount allocated to the river, it would be enough to save two million a year. Su Qian smiled faintly, is this household secretary calling him poor?

"Your Majesty is far away. However, there are quite a few young adults between the ages of 17 and 22 in the country, and there are already more than 120,000 people. A year's worth of ringing silver is a behemoth. Hubu Shangshu simply knelt down: "Besides, His Majesty is going to set up a new department, which is the expense." โ€

"Get up and speak. I don't blame you. Just speak up. Su Qianran felt funny when he looked at his pitiful appearance.

"Minister...... It's better to kneel. Tobe Shangshu laughed dryly.

Su Tianran ignored him, and took a leisurely sip of tea: "The salary is only one penny of silver, how much can it be? โ€

"But the soldiers' food, clothing, and chewing can't be counted as money. If you want to be young and strong, you will definitely lose more food and clothing. That's another sum of silver. At worst, three million taels of silver should be invested every year. The cost of the left and right is very large, and I hope that His Majesty will think deeply. โ€

"You're right, but when there is no war on weekdays, soldiers are idle. I know that many military camps have their own small vegetable patches, not to mention that everyone can eat them, but they are just used by generals to try them. I plan to integrate the military and the people, so that in addition to their daily practice and helping the people in the vicinity to farm, they can also reclaim the land to grow food and raise pigs, which can be regarded as saving expenses. Su poured out and knocked on the table, and the response was like a stream. "As the saying goes, take it from the people and use it for the people. What is used for the people is taken from the people. Let the people know about national affairs, which can be regarded as serving the people. This department is called the newspaper department, and the printed news is called a newspaper. There are always some wealthy merchants in the capital. I'll leave the matter to you, and tell the rich merchants, and 10,000 taels of silver will make the name of one of their shops appear in the newspaper for a month. There is also a limit to the number of words, within five crosses. โ€

I wanted to say no, the merchant was lowly, but I thought that this was the imperial study, and there were only two people here, him and His Majesty. Why don't you listen to you? Hubu Shangshu suddenly missed the feeling of being in the court, after all, that group of officials was the best at making the first bird. "The newspaper should be given away to the people for free, which can be regarded as a signboard for them. These wealthy businessmen can't wait to get in touch with the official family. Ten thousand silver taels is simply a small amount to them. I'm afraid there are too many people to come. The expression was indescribably respectful, as if he agreed with Su Tianran's words, and said another kowtow: "Your Majesty is wise." โ€

"Of course, there is a limit to the number of places, only 20 places. I decided to have someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs do this. Not only about what happened in the court, but also about some interesting anecdotes. Su Qian secretly thought that his income was 200,000 yuan a month, which was 2.4 million yuan a year, which was also an income and expenditure.

"As a result, we have to charge more. Each quota is 100,000 yuan, and several conspicuous places are set up, and the fee is 500,000 yuan. The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he jumped Su down, he was worthy of being in charge of the household, this is the master of collecting money. "The minister roughly calculated, even if the treasury paid for the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, throw away miscellaneous items such as labor and monthly silver. It has to generate more than 10 million yuan of revenue for the national treasury every year. โ€

Su Tanran took a sip of tea to suppress his shock, and looked at the red-faced Hubu Shangshu Su Tanran wanted to sit in the back a little. I have to say that the head of the household is also good at handling things for officials. Asking people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to do things is equivalent to generating income for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is the emperor's treasury, and this move is a great way to curry favor with the emperor. "It's not just the people from the Internal Affairs Office, but also some Jinshi who are idle at home, they all have to get involved. I also want women to do things in it, and the newspaper needs to be comprehensive, not just about men. Moreover, those merchants can also come if they have money. My newspaper is equivalent to a royal signboard, and you should investigate it, and don't let those low-quality merchants come up and smash my newspaper and stain the eyes of the people. "There is a imperial examination every year in Daqian, but if you are a jinshi, you may not be able to be an official. You can't do anything else when you're at home, in case the country needs you, and you can't catch up. "There are also people who do not read newspapers for free forever, but after a year, they will pay five cents a newspaper. โ€

"I'm afraid I won't be able to get back to the original of a newspaper. And the emperor, not every family has a scholar, everyone is literate. Hube Shangshu frowned when he heard the woman doing things, and thought that there were also female officials in the palace, so he couldn't bear to mention it.

"Money doesn't come from the people, but from the merchants. Su poured down the head of the head of the book: "Spend it when it should be spent, and the money will always come." This matter still needs to be considered, and you need to plan it thoroughly. If it doesn't work out, you don't have to go to court. "This is the advertising fee of the future generations.

The head of the household hurriedly agreed.

"Before, you said that the treasury could not make ends meet, and I was deeply saddened. However, pain and thinking about change is the bearing of you and me as officials and monarchs. In the future, there will be more places to spend money, and I will give the people a good future, so that the four seas will be peaceful and other countries will submit. Su Tianran got up and helped the household secretary up: "Although the official does not compete with the people for profit, but the officials of this great Qianguo are afraid that everyone has a shop, and every family has private land. โ€

"Damn it!" Tobe Shangshu knelt down again.

Su Tianran felt that his knees also felt an inexplicable coldness. "I don't blame you, or I would have cut off your heads. Shops can, however, private land is chilling to me. The people have no food to eat, so they can only reclaim the barren mountains and cultivate the land. I'll give you a breath of air about this first, and tomorrow I'll promulgate the real-name system for land, so that those people will throw out all the people's land. If you can't bear it, then you have to make up the taxes for these years. โ€

Hubu Shangshu kowtowed again: "The ministers should die." โ€

Su Tanran was deeply bored, and these words were repeated over and over again.

"There are often merchants traveling to various countries at the border gates, and I intend to set up checkpoints at the border gates to collect customs clearance taxes. "Taxation has always been the main source of supporting the country's finances, and we must do a good job.

"Your Majesty, it's not proper!" Hubu Shangshu shook his head: "Merchants already pay taxes, and I am afraid that customs clearance and then paying taxes will cause them dissatisfaction." Although the merchant is lowly, he is also the most cunning. โ€

"What about the tax exemption in our own country and the tax collection in other countries?"

"It's not feasible, except for some big merchants, some people in the surrounding area are trading. If it is a tax collection, I am afraid that it will affect the commercial circulation of the border gates. "Tobe Shangshu kowtows again.

Su Tianran bit her lower lip and felt upset. "Like some wet markets, there are some small vendors in addition to shops. Charge two cents a day to subsidize the local government, you see? But the government also has to hire people to clean up the market. โ€

"This ...... I'm afraid it will cause the people to rebel. โ€

"It's just two pennies, and the name is the market management fee. The people should be able to afford it. In this way, now that the capital is trying for March, you have to take care of this matter, and you are the only one who asks if you are on a business trip. โ€

It's obviously your idea, try it, look at your face, and it's clear that you want to do this. There were all kinds of grievances in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and he pretended to be excited to admit this difficult errand.

"Also, you can pick out some things that are unique to our country and list them for me. I will sell it to other nations. Don't use what is too precious, want what they don't have. "Exporting to other countries is also a lot of income.

Wechen obeyed. "Now Tobe Shangshu is really a little excited. His Majesty hadn't given him so many tasks at once. I thought that I would be a head if I did one of the six, but now it seems that the young emperor has taken a fancy to him. As long as he does not travel in the future, it is inevitable that he will follow this emperor to leave a name in history. But why didn't you find out that Your Majesty was so greedy for money before...... No, it's to generate revenue for the treasury.

"Well, you have to be more mindful, the treasury and I need you. Su Tianran patted Tobe Shangshu on the shoulder sternly: "Eh, what's your name? Do you know the other day...... Cough. โ€

Tobe Shangshu also heard about His Majesty's seriously ill โ–กโ–ก a few days ago, and hurriedly nodded his head so as not to speak. For such a big thing, he still pretended to be deaf and dumb, and his eyes were confused. "Weichen's surname is Zhang, and he dares to use a single word. โ€

Su Tianran's eyelids suddenly jumped: "You raise your head and let me take a good look." "Why is the surname Zhang again. It's his...... What is it? Su had a headache. Zhang: It can't be Zhang Qiling, right? His name is Su Qianran, but he is not Wu Xie.

Zhang Dare was stunned, this majesty xiร ...... I'm forty years old. Although the package is very good, but there is already a family, what kind of young ...... Although he complained incompetently in his heart, Zhang Dang still raised his head obediently.

Su Tanran looked at the face, and then was silent for a moment: "Does Zhang Shangshu often go to the Qinglou." โ€

Zhang Dang's face changed when he heard this, cold sweat broke out, and he quickly kowtowed: "Weichen deserves death." โ€

Su Qianran nodded and did not speak. What I thought in my heart was: Look at the way you look up, it looks like the woman in the Qinglou is still talking.

"Alright, stand down. Su tilted his hand and asked Zhang Dare to retreat. "Wait a minute, drink the tea and moisten your throat. Be thrifty in small things, and start from the monarch and minister. As he spoke, he drank all the tea.

The corners of his mouth twitched, he had never done such a shameful thing since he was born. After this Majesty Xiร  lost his memory, he was really a little childish. What he thought about in his heart was one thing, but he drank all the tea with a look of adoration on his face: "Your Majesty is wise." โ€

After Zhang dared to leave, Su poured tea for himself. He did it on purpose just now, presumably this Lord Zhang has never had such a time. But it's also a signal to them. The emperor is going to be frugal, why do you want to be extravagant?

Su Tanran drank the good tea and felt that the taste was good, thinking that this tea was famous for ten taels of gold and was a little disgusted. These officials, the life of the emperor is really luxurious. kept saying that he was for the people, but he drank ten taels of gold to buy one tael of tea.

Su Qianran suddenly remembered a long time ago, and almost cried with a sour nose. Looking at the beautiful shape of the tea leaves in his hand, he sighed.

The people are the support of a country, but they are the most miserable.

How sad?
