Chapter 075: Sang Xia Offers Advice
"Father's ......"
Xia Zhenming patted him on the shoulder with rare kindness, "Think about it." ”
Xia Yuanhao was a little stunned, his father was ......
"Your Majesty, Liu Shangshu of the household department asks to see you."
Liu Zhi? Didn't you just leave? "Xuan."
"Yes."
Xia Yuanhao hurriedly saluted, "Erchen will retire first." ”
Xia Zhenming sat back in the imperial seat with his hands behind his back, and said meaningfully: "Don't worry, you can also listen to the affairs of the court, sixteen years old is the age of the director." ”
Xia Yuanhao lowered his gaze, the meaning of his father's words shows that he really thinks too much, could it be that his father wants him to enter the court? My sister has just entered the government as a woman, if he also chooses to enter the court at this time, what will others think?
Father's ...... What is your attitude towards your sister?
Liu Zhi saluted before he discovered the existence of the eldest prince, and hurriedly bent down towards him.
Xia Yuanhao stretched out his hand to help him, "Lord Liu doesn't need to be polite. ”
"What's going on?"
"Back to the emperor, the old minister has just seen the imperial history of the Sang servant, it is a matter of the household department, the old minister does not dare to make decisions without authorization, please ask the emperor to decide."
"Oh?" Xia Zhenming suddenly came to her senses, "She has a charter so quickly?" The idea of hitting the Tobe? ”
"Yes." Liu Zhi glanced at the emperor's expression out of the corner of his eyes, felt a little relieved, took out the pages from his sleeves and raised his hands above his head, "This is from the hand of the Sang Shi Yushi, please take a look at the emperor." ”
Xia Yuanhao took the things and sent them to his father faster than the inner servant.
Xia Zhenming laughed after reading it, he was not allowed to use the money and grain from the treasury, and she moved what had not been collected into the treasury, which was a good game.
"Xuan Sangxia came to see me."
Liu Zhi's heart was relieved, and the emperor had not met her alone since Zhiheng appeared. I don't know if I see each other this time......
"What does Liu **qing think?"
"The old minister thinks it's feasible."
"Tell me about it."
"Yes." Along the way, Liu Zhi thought about what to say, and said without the slightest pause: "According to the law of the imperial history, in the short term, it will damage the interests of the imperial court, but in the long run, the old minister thinks that it is beneficial to the country and the people, just as the imperial history of the Sang service said, although the land south of the Yangtze River has been ravaged by floods all year round. But it's still a land of abundance. The annual taxes paid in terms of money and grain are among the top of the nineteen prefectures.
There has always been a dispute between the north and the south, and the old minister is a northerner, but the old minister has to admit it. In some respects, Jiangnan is indeed a place of outstanding people, since the establishment of the country to open the scientific expedition, the Jiangnan Prefecture Jinshi is the most, and the old minister has been to Jiangnan. The academic atmosphere there is much stronger than in other places, and students have to save money to buy books even if they don't have good clothes or a full meal. They will argue for days and nights about a different idea, and such a place, as long as they are given time to recuperate, it will not take long to recover.
Let's talk about the merchants of Jiangnan. They seem to be born to smell business opportunities better than people elsewhere, and they are also bold and daring, and they have internal conflicts. When something really happened, they were very united, as far as the old minister knew. A few days ago, a batch of materials in the capital was sent to Jiangnan, which was raised by the Jiangnan merchant gang, and if the court ignored it before, they may not be chilled, and once the court needs them, I am afraid that they will not be able to get their wholehearted help. ”
After saying this, Liu Zhi knelt down, "The old minister's words are excessive, and the emperor is angry." ”
"You are dedicated to the country, what is the crime, get up."
"Your Majesty."
Xia Zhenming was very emotional in his heart, Chinese are so strange, when there is no foreign enemy, they can fight by themselves, and when they encounter natural disasters*, they can abandon their previous grievances and hug them tightly, and they can be united without the call of the government, which has been the case since ancient times.
The existence of the Chamber of Commerce has existed since ancient times, but he has forgotten that there is such an existence after being the emperor for a long time.
I waited for a while before Sanxia came.
"Weichen Sangxia visits the emperor."
Xia Zhenming had the urge to tell her that she didn't need to kneel in the future, but in such an environment, if he really said this, he would be hated by Xia Er, and it was a dream to imagine that the father and daughter in the previous life were so close.
Sighing, Xia Zhenming said softly: "No courtesy." ”
Sang Xia stood up, and when he looked up, he met Xia Yuanhao's eyes, and the two of them were stunned at the same time.
This is the first time the two have met since that day, in such a place, with such an unequal identity.
Sang Xia was thinking about whether to give a salute to the eldest prince with status, when he heard the emperor say: "I heard Liu Shangshu say that you are playing the idea of paying taxes?" ”
"Yes." Sang Xia only had time to smile at the previous brother-in-law, and the current brother smiled and responded to the emperor's inquiry, which was related to disaster relief, and she didn't dare to take it lightly.
"Let's listen carefully."
"Yes." Sang Xia organized the language, and a crisp voice sounded in the imperial study, "Cangyun Country does not inhibit the development of commerce, but there are many restrictions on businessmen, even so, since the founding of the country has accumulated a lot of capital for the people, Wechen does not know how to do business, and it is not good to say what the harm will be if the businessman has more money in his hand, but in Wechen's opinion, this is the same as a man who wants to take a concubine when he has silver in his hand, and a bad one will make the inner house unstable. And benignly guide private capital to avoid accidents, and now, the silver in their hands has a place to go. ”
"Cangyun law, the son of a merchant is not allowed to enter the office, and the son of an official is not allowed to enter the business, so even if the merchant earns enough money and wants to change his identity, he can't find a way, now if there is a road in front of them, they only need to pay a certain price to get what they want, and Wechen believes that disaster relief is no longer a problem."
Xia Zhenming looked at her crystal eyes, her expression was sudden for a moment, and she looked down at what was written on the paper, "Seventy percent of the assets?" ”
"Yes, they may not be reluctant to give up, and this is only a stopgap measure, there is a time limit, after which there will be no shop in this village, and for some people they can make a choice without much thought at all."
Sang Xia raised his head, "Weichen always feels that it is not a smart move to abandon the people because of a passable natural disaster, unless the people of several provinces are dead, otherwise they must be allowed to centrifuge, Jiangnan people are smart and cunning, but they also remember that if the court can help them through this difficulty, Weichen believes that they will return to the court a thousand times in the future, and they will also give the emperor and the most loyal heart of Cangyun Kingdom!" ”
The loud words made Fan Dong, who had always kept his head down, also raised his head, this is the daughter of the queen mother, if these are all from her own ideas, and she has the ability to do what she said, some people are afraid to worry.
Liu Zhi took a deep breath, "The minister seconded the words of the Sang Servant Imperial History. ”
Xia Yuanhao looked proudly and bitterly at the woman he liked, his current sister, walked up to her and stood side by side with her, "Erchen seconded." ”
Sang Xia looked sideways at him and said thank you wordlessly. (To be continued)
