Chapter 625: Asking for Money
"Sometimes I really don't understand what you want to do? Obviously, you care about Mingyue very much, why did you make yourself like this?" Xuanyuan looked at Xiao Shuyue, a little puzzled.
Xiao Shuyue turned around, there was an indescribable ripple in her eyes, which made Xuanyuan tilt restless, he looked at her, Xiao Shuyue said shallowly: "Mingyue is going by herself." ”
After listening to Xiao Shuyue's words, Xuanyuan Qian finally understood, if Mingyue didn't want to go, how could Xiao Shuyue force her?
"But...... It's a little strange that you can accept that kid from Yuan Mosheng. Xuanyuan leaned on Xiao Shuyue's forehead and kissed it gently, Xiao Shuyue smiled lightly: "This kid is really emotional, otherwise I wouldn't be so relieved to hand it over to him, but I don't know how long they can maintain such a relationship, I hope Allure can be smarter, in this way, the entire original family will not be afraid." ”
"That'...... What about us?"
Xuanyuan looked at Xiao Tingcheng and asked, Xiao Tingcheng looked at Xuanyuan and smiled a little evilly, "What do you say?"
Xuanyuan's inexplicable face was a little red, Xiao Shuyue smiled lightly, early the next morning, the entire court was noisy, Xiao Shuyue was very tired after being tossed by Xuanyuan for a night, this early in the morning I heard a group of people here noisy, and the emperor kept sighing on it, it seemed to be quite helpless.
After listening to it for a long time, I realized that this is the time for this year's tribute.
After arguing for a long time, Xiao Shuyue finally heard it, and the main purpose was still a ...... Ask for money. When the Chancellor of the Exchequer fought last year, the treasury was already very tight, and the tribute for a few years must not let these foreign ministers see the economic constraints of the whole country, but this economic is not that you say that if you are not poor, you will not be poor, and you can blame us for this lack of money?
So the Minister of Finance, the Ministry of Rites, the two families began to quarrel, and these things also have the Ministry of War, others, okay, now everyone is arguing together, so the whole court is like a vegetable market, you are the Minister of Finance, anyway, you have to find a way to deal with money, but last year because of the war, the people's taxes were already very heavy, do you still have to loot the people's fat and ointment? If this continues, the emperor will be scolded.
So these are starting to fight.
"Emperor, I don't know if you have any solution?" The emperor looked at Xuanyuan, Xuanyuan paused, and said: "It is impossible to increase taxes, the people have been working hard last year, if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will cause resentment among the people, so it is better to ...... Start with the merchants. ”
After listening to Xuanyuan's words, the entire court finally quieted down, looking at Xuanyuantian, expecting Xuanyuan to be able to come up with a plan, Xiao Shuyue looked at these people, and pouted with contempt, she told them before that they could come up with an implementable plan, but now it's okay, and the matter is still pushed on her own people.
But as Xuanyuan said more and more, it made this group of people feel that it was much more convenient to implement.
In fact, this is a bit similar to the increase in commercial taxes in the previous life, Xiao Shuyue didn't think there was anything about this, after all, but from the perspective of the country now, these things are all deserved by the country.
Xiao Shuyue took the lead in agreeing, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer was also full of smiles, and these people were naturally satisfied, but the Chancellor of the Exchequer also said that after these are implemented, you will be able to give money to the Ministry of Rites only when you get the money, if you come to him every day to ask for money, he will not have time to collect the money.
It's rare that the people in the Ministry of Rites are not making trouble, and an early dynasty is over.
And the rare Xiao Shuyue didn't make a fuss today, and these people can be regarded as a little comfort to themselves.
However, when it came to collecting money, the Chancellor of the Exchequer encountered unprecedented difficulties.
The reason is very simple, there are policies, there are countermeasures, many industries in the capital are actually some private property of major families, otherwise with this little bit of their own, it is not enough at all, isn't this equivalent to taking money from their own families to fill the treasury in disguise? These people are shrewd and must be unwilling, so after the court said this policy, all the families began to make false accounts, planning to fool the past like this, to pay taxes, we will give, but according to five percent of the profits, that is drinking their blood.
These chancellors of the exchequer naturally won't do it, but these are the means of their colleagues, the chancellor of the exchequer, these people are all clear, and it is not too easy to think of some means to deal with it.
So the Chancellor of the Exchequer was tragic, there was no way, he actually came to the house of the four princes at night, and after he came, the four princes did not see it, but he saw Xiao Shuyue, the Chancellor of the Exchequer had a bitter face, and he didn't know that he thought that others owed him millions.
Xiao Shuyue said angrily: "What are you pretending to be with me, you have so many ways to get oil and water over the years, and there is no way to deal with these people?"
What Xiao Shuyue said was not polite at all, but it made the Chancellor of the Exchequer a little embarrassed, how can I accept this when you say this?
As a member of the imperial court, he was reprimanded by Xiao Shuyue here, to be honest, if people outside saw it, they would definitely think that Xiao Shuyue was too presumptuous, but this identity is really special, this is the fourth princess, if the emperor really gives the throne to the four princes one day, this may be the future queen.
So now the Chancellor of the Exchequer is pinching his nose, but he has to be reprimanded by Xiao Shuyue.
Xuanyuan is very busy every day now, where does he have time to deal with these people, so now he wants to see the four princes and is directly stopped by Xiao Shuyue, but after seeing this, you don't even have the courage to speak, this woman can kill you if she speaks.
"Lord Xiao, now these people have other account books in their hands, don't I have no choice? This Ministry of Rites asks for money, but the treasury has already lost half of it last year, and now this tax has not been collected, and I want to ask for money, don't you say I'm not in a hurry? The method that the Four Princes said is feasible, but who would have thought that these people would be so disobedient, and I have no choice but to come to the Four Princes to see if there are any other solutions. ”
The Chancellor of the Exchequer looked at Xiao Shuyue and said with some grievances.
Xiao Shuyue snorted lightly and said: "The way is for you, and I have to send you the Buddha to the west, I don't think about these methods, I don't know what I want your group of people to do, they make fake accounts, you won't do it?"
The Chancellor of the Exchequer was stunned, he should have heard it wrong just now, his own mother should not be so contemptuous of the royal law.
