Bai Ko's throat twitched, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, is this 200 acres of land really too much?

"Your Majesty, when the land was purchased, the government did not stop our son's generosity, which means that the law allows private individuals to purchase large amounts of land at one time, and now that the title deeds are in hand, and the four solstice drawings have been drawn, you can't go back, it will affect the reputation of the imperial court."

"If it weren't for Gu Yun's purchase of land, do you really think that the government would let private individuals hoard so much land at one time?"

"In that case, please believe that our Gu Yun Shizi will not disappoint you."

"Don't open your mouth and shut your mouth, it's all Gu Yun Gu Yun, he is a proprietor who only pays money, and you are the shopkeeper who takes care of the business with full authority, I will ask you, how did you plan it?"

"Quite simply, if the factory has a monopoly, the business partners who provide all kinds of raw materials for the factory will also make a fortune, and when they make money, they will have the incentive to hire manpower to expand production. Everyone has money to make, and the treasury has taxes, do you prefer a surplus in the treasury or a deficit? ”

Bai Ko will not be hoarse to ensure that after reaching a monopoly, he will maintain the stability of the market and will never manipulate the market artificially, this kind of talk is useless to the sage, the local market order is the responsibility of the parent official, as the supreme ruler of the country, he is more concerned about the level of social order and the increase of the treasury revenue.

"Little girl, you're quite good at getting to the point."

"Your Majesty, businessmen are profit-seeking, everyone wants to sit at the top of the industry, let our son sit on that height, it is better than let ordinary businessmen sit on it. He has a limited status, and he is already shouldering social morality and social responsibility, no matter how many people are staring at him, he will not allow himself to make mistakes, and he will definitely pay the taxes in full, and will not adjust his accounting methods to play tricks. But think about the other merchants who do a monopoly business, if nothing else, just those salt merchants, do the taxes they pay every year really match the business they do? They are all extremely rich in their own families, in addition to the official salt on the surface, they also do private salt business, and all the profits go into their own pockets, and the state treasury does not receive a penny more in taxes, and even the official taxes that should be given can be reduced by smearing a few strokes on the books. The salt merchants are far away from the capital, the supervision of the imperial court is not in place, and the local officials may be complicit with them, and it is too difficult to pursue taxes, but the Yeguo Mansion is in the capital, and the workshop of these 200 acres of land is under your nose, and the prince wants to evade taxes depends on whether you agree or not. ”

"Since you say that, you must not mind that the household officials come to visit every now and then?"

"Don't mind, don't mind at all, as long as you come, you will be entertained with good wine and food, do you mind that is the son of the world, he is the owner, and the slave and maid are just doing things for others and eating people's food."

"Hey!" The sage suddenly slapped the table, "Why did Bai Xiaoshan's elm pimple give birth to such a oily daughter like you!" ”

The invisible man-like father-in-law immediately stretched out his hand to appease the saint, Bai Ko bowed slightly, picked up the saint's teacup to the tea table and refilled a cup of hot water back, milk tea naturally does not need to be boiled, the purpose of serving tea today is actually to chat.

The people outside the tent trembled when they heard the movement inside, and as soon as the prince waved his hand, the soldiers of the forbidden army immediately gathered around and formed a circle around the dragon tent as they had done on the first day, and no one was allowed to step into the circle.

The saint drank the water, relieved himself, looked at Bai Ko, who was standing honestly below, and shook his fingers at her.

"You usually talk to Gu Yun so oily-headed and slippery?"

"The slave and the maid speak frankly with the son, one is one, the other is two, the pros and cons are clearly explained, the responsibilities are divided, and then each does his own thing."

"That's a good point, the rights and responsibilities are clear and easy to do, so my household officials come to the door, and if they have opinions, it should be Gu Yun, and it has nothing to do with you."

"Your Majesty."

"Less sycophants."

Bai Ko raised his hand and saluted, not daring to say more.

The sage took the tea bowl and drank a few more sips slowly, his eyes swept over the table full of snacks, the milk tea was already a little cold, but he didn't want to drink it, but his heart moved and he had an idea.

"Little girl."

"The slave is here, what do you command?"

"You entered the cooking workshop in Ya Chi Fang before you were ten years old, but the school only teaches local cuisine, but where did you learn to make foreign dim sum?"

"I have memorized some family recipes since I was a child, and after entering the Yeguo Mansion, I have the opportunity to practice and slowly practice it."

Bai Ko's brain exploded, and finally someone questioned the source of her cooking skills, and she was panicked, for fear that she would not answer well and reveal her mistakes.

The saint laid down his cup and leaned back in his chair, not asking whether Bai Ko's words were true or false, for he remembered something else.

"Your Bai family's family recipe, where are you now?"

"Scattered."

"It's a pity, if your family's family recipes are still there, find a bookstore to publish them, it's a very sought-after thing."

"The slave doesn't know the whereabouts of the family heirloom recipes, and there are only a few copies in the Ye Guo Mansion."

"Hmph, the things that were confiscated by the imperial court will actually disappear from the treasury and be scattered in the streets, those damn minions!" The saint patted the armrest of the dragon chair and scolded bitterly, "Let me know who did it, and peel off their skins!" ”

There was another bang in Bai Ko's brain, and the confiscated products confiscated into the warehouse were actually secretly flowed out, let's not talk about this ** thing, is the Bai family's recipe more sought-after than she imagined?

"Little girl."

"The slave is here."

"Since your recipe has been lost, you can collect it as much as you can when you have time."

"It's a family heirloom of the slave and maid, and the slave and the maid will definitely do their best."

"Focus on your grandfather's cookbooks, especially the ones before the accident."

"Is there anything special in those books?"

"When I was young, the old king of Ufazaghi was still alive, and before the kingdom was divided, there were caravans between their country and trade between the two countries. In their country, there is a chowder bolognese, known as the national bolognese, which is an essential part of their daily diet, from the common people to the royal family. There is no fixed number of meat to make meat sauce, what meat is used for what meat, the common people use more red meat, the royal family and nobles will add some white meat on the basis of red meat, the main problem is in the spices, the meat sauce eaten by the common people is not too particular, but the types of ingredients used in the meat sauce eaten by the nobles will be as many as thirty or fifty kinds, there are seven or eight kinds of spices and fresh leaves alone, the merchants brought plant seeds but never successfully planted in the country, until your grandfather Bai Yehong made their luxurious version of the chowder meat sauce with domestic spices, and the taste is exactly the same. I think that at the beginning, they Prince Salte led a delegation to come, and I also wanted to ask Lao Bai to make this meat sauce for guests. ”

Bai Ko silently watched the saint clench his fists, I can't tell what mood he is in now, I think it must be mixed feelings, because she herself is the same
