Generally, in the event of a natural disaster, the queen will take the lead in reducing the expenses in the palace, taking off the silk and satin, changing into cotton clothes, calling on the palace concubines to donate some gold and silver jewelry, and buy disaster relief food in the name of the palace.

Then the female dependents of various provinces followed suit and donated money and materials one after another.

More or less, I can start to act.

As a result, there was no movement in the palace, but the little eyes and a group of brothers had to be creditors bitterly, no matter when, the one who borrowed money was the uncle!

The Queen Mother couldn't stand it anymore, so she specially called Banniang and said that her expenses in the palace would be halved...

Ba Niang... Old lady, isn't it good for you to be happy and take care of your old age?

Banniang has saved a lot of private houses over the years, and she told Xiaoyan at that time that the money can be used casually by Xiaoyan, and she can save it when the money is gone, and she is not distressed.

But the little eyes disagreed: "There are only antique relics left in my private library, and there is not a single trace of silver... The weapon workshop spends a lot of money, and this money can't be spent, so you have to keep your private house, and you may have to use it next month. ”

Banniang then remembered that the funds for the weapons workshop were all from the private treasury of Xiaoyan, and the scientific research expenses were expensive...

In this case, Banniang is too lazy to put on a show, how much money can be saved by eating less meat in the palace?

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother couldn't hold it back.

Banniang looked at the queen mother's look of contempt, and said with a smile: "The official family would rather take out all the gold and silver in the private treasury than the eldest lady to be wronged..."

Have the ability to move your private room!!

Without waiting for the Queen Mother to answer, Banniang smiled again: "My daughter-in-law also thought about reducing the amount used in the palace, but if I think about it carefully, there are no other concubines in the official harem, and there can only be three of my mother and son to set an example... The queen mother and the concubines are all bodhisattvas, and they don't have a word, but they can't say that the official family treats the concubine harshly..."

When you are older, you want to hold the money in your hands to feel at ease, not to mention that the concubines have no other extra income in addition to their salaries over the years.

The Queen Mother is reluctant to have a private house, will the concubine be willing to give up her salary? Not everyone has as much savings as the Queen Mother!

The Queen Mother has taken the lead in reducing the amount of use, can the concubine not follow?

Banniang wants to spread today's words and tell the concubine that if you want to complain, you will complain about the queen mother!

The point is, you really can't save a few dollars! There has never been luxury in the palace!

"The official family often tells me that I want the queen mother and the concubines to enjoy their old age in peace, no matter how bitter they are, they can't be bitter to the girls, but if the eldest lady insists, I will naturally not be able to stop it," Banniang smiled, "No matter how little, it is also a part of the eldest lady's heart..."

If you have the ability, you can donate private money!

The Queen Mother was so angry that her face was blue, although she was not afraid of the concubine and others, but who would be happy to be scolded behind her back!

"The official family has always advocated frugality, and has always practiced it, in order to reduce expenses, over the years, there have been no concubines in the palace, and how much silver has been saved for the treasury!

Dowager... I'm afraid that people won't know that you're cheap, and you're still selling well?

"If the eldest lady has nothing else to do, I will go back first," Banniang stood up with a smile, "I still have to send someone to inform the concubines quickly, although the official family said that the ministers have different family backgrounds, and those who are willing to donate will go to the household department to donate quietly, don't make it quiet, so as not to make others embarrassed, but the use of the eldest lady in the palace has been reduced, in order to prevent people from talking, I still have to say to the concubines..."

Then he ignored the black face of the Queen Mother, bowed in a chic manner, and left...

After the little eyes knew, they shook their heads with a smile, the Queen Mother was too blind, because of Xiao Lei's matter, Banniang was holding back a fire, and it was strange to be so kind as before...

"I'll make it up to the concubines later. Little Eyes felt that he still had enough ability to make the mothers worry about food and clothing.

After a fine to borrow money, the urgent need was solved, but Xiaoyan felt that the household department should find a way to increase income.

Xiaoyan thinks that we have to find a solution from the root, and it is helpless to fine and borrow money, and the key is to increase the revenue of the treasury, and we have to find a way to open source.

As for throttling, the little eyes don't think about it, there are so many places to spend money!

But how can we open up the source? Increasing taxes is the stupidest thing! But the source of the treasury is taxes!

The little eye complained to Banniang, the big landlords are so annoying, they occupy a lot of land, and they don't pay taxes!

Who let the Great Zhou and the Great Song Dynasty not start with a peasant uprising, the land of the powerful landlords is not only not less, but more and more, all dynasties, most of the land was concentrated in the hands of a few big families when the country was founded, this situation is still rare.

Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyi can't do it, let alone small eyes!

So when Banniang asked, "Do you want to collect taxes from them?", the little eyes immediately jumped and quickly shook their heads: "How is it possible?!"

That would shake the fundamentals!

Anyway, the little eyes think that they don't have the ability to solve the matter properly, and they don't want to be the king of the country.

Banniang breathed a sigh of relief, at any time, reform is risky, and Xiaoyan obviously does not have enough prestige and courage to concentrate on the land, and it would be foolish to be self-defeating...

"Encourage landless peasants to work, if there are more workshops, taxes will also increase. "Banniang has no other way, "Maybe one day, the tax money of the workshops and merchants will be enough for the imperial court not to collect land tax." ”

Let's vigorously develop commerce and handicrafts.

The little eyes look at Banniang, if the field tax is not collected, the farmers dare not daydream about it...

"People always have to have dreams," Banniang laughed: "If we can't see it, it doesn't mean that future generations won't be able to see it." ”

"I've all gone to business, who will farm the land?"

"No one farms the land, and the big family will still hold the land in their hands?" Banniang disagreed: "Once he wants to sell the land, someone will always buy it." "The land complex of the Chinese people is deeply implanted in the genes...

Xiaoyan felt that Banniang was thinking too simply, but Banniang advised: "Let the people of the Ministry of Industry carefully ponder the grain varieties and work hard to increase the yield, there is really a day when everyone doesn't want to farm, and the court will pay for people to plant..."

The little eyes looked at Banniang speechlessly...

Banniang thought for a while: "Then when collecting taxes, half of them must be paid for grain!"

The little eyes were still frowning, and Banniang advised: "It's been a long time, don't worry..."

Little Eyes: "What am I going to do now?"

I really want to collect taxes! I want to collect taxes from the big landlords!

Banniang is also worried, unless there is a peasant uprising... Well, but now I'm a feudal ruler...

The two of them are relatively worried, it's difficult...

"Do you want to throttle?" the little eyes sighed, "Yulu, military spending, rivers, Salesian Bureau..."

"Salesian Bureau?" Banniang slapped the table: "There is!"

Little eyes widened: "What way?"

"If you have a lot of land, donate money to the government charity bureau, donate a certain share, and it will be tax-free!" Banniang said: "Donations can be checked at any time every year, and they can be used for specific purposes! The government issued documents, charity homes, to show recognition..."

Donation tax deduction should be feasible...

Little Eyes scratched his head: "I'll think about it..."
