Chapter 272: Coming up with an idea
When he walked to the imperial garden, the county lord of Yongcheng sent the palace maid who was waiting on the side, and Liu Rong asked what the county lord of Yongcheng was doing when he entered the palace to face the saint, after all, he was the emperor who saw the sun and everything, if there was nothing to do, it would definitely be rare. What's more, the draft will be held in two days, and I'm afraid that the saint will be even busier today.
"This time I entered the palace, in fact, the biggest purpose is to offer the glass formula." The county lord of Yongcheng looked at Liu Rong and said in a low voice.
Liu Rong was slightly stunned: "Why did you suddenly choose this time?" The timing of this recipe must be chosen to be useful, otherwise it will only appear abrupt and arouse suspicion. ”
The county lord of Yongcheng glanced around, and made sure that no one spoke again: "This is also a last resort, many people have been wandering around Liulifang recently, and the Duan guard has also found the secret guard of the saint in the middle." Speaking of the last half of the sentence, the voice of the county lord of Yongcheng was almost inaudible, if it wasn't for the county lord of Yongcheng who said it in the back, he leaned on Liu Rong's ear, Liu Rong probably wouldn't have heard it.
Liu Rong couldn't help frowning slightly, she didn't expect there to be such a thing in the middle. She was really too busy to pay attention to these things.
The county lord of Yongcheng continued to speak: "I wanted to tell you yesterday, but you have been in the palace all along. The decision was made after that. ”
The county lord of Yongcheng paused slightly before speaking again: "But this time it is also in line with the period you said at the beginning, and we decided to offer the glaze formula to the saint." ”
"Because the winter in Jiangnan is too cold, a large number of grains planted freeze to death, and the people have no food to survive, and now they are in a panic. As a result, a large number of refugees are coming to the capital. But the treasury is empty. Though the money was allocated, it was not enough. Now the capital seems to be stable. can also be drafted in order to rejoice in these disasters, but in fact, it is because the saint does not want to argue with the queen mother in the palace. I want to focus all my attention on this. Let's do my best to deal with this. ”
"So, so, according to what you said, I chose to present the secret recipe of the glass here."
The county lord of Yongcheng looked at Liu Rong and said seriously: "Liu Rong, is the timing of my sudden choice okay?" ”
"Good or bad." Liu Rong pondered for a while before frowning and speaking to the county lord of Yongcheng.
"For what? Any questions? The county lord of Yongcheng couldn't help but quickly ask Liu Rong, this method was what Liu Rong thought of her, and only Liu Rong knew when Lu Dao was the most suitable to teach things out of Lu Dao.
Liu Rong didn't answer quickly, as if she was thinking about something. After a while, he spoke: "It's good to sacrifice this thing, so you don't have to worry too much about future problems, but it's not good that you react too quickly." Isn't it a strange thing that the Holy Man would go to the vicinity of Liulifang? And isn't it doubtful that you made such a decision as soon as you found out about it? ”
"This ......" is indeed like what Liu Rong said, it is a strange thing for the Holy Lord to send people to the vicinity of Liulifang.
The county lord of Yongcheng couldn't help but show worry on his face: "Then what should I do?" ”
Liu Rong couldn't help frowning: "Let me think about it." ”
The county lord of Yongcheng nodded, well-behaved, and waited quietly on the side. looked at Liu Rong, and didn't dare to disturb Liu Rong at all.
After a while, Liu Rong asked the county lord of Yongcheng: "After the Holy Lord saw you offering these things, did he have any other reactions?" ”
"Yes." The county lord of Yongcheng nodded quickly: "The Holy Lord was about to issue a decree at that time. Let all the officials in the capital learn from me and donate some silver or things to the disaster in Jiangnan. ”
"I also said that this glass formula is priceless, and said that I am kind. A female streamer can come up with such a thing to donate to the people of Jiangnan, and the officials should be even more so. I heard the Holy One say that. I felt embarrassed, so I opened my mouth and donated 50,000 taels of silver. The county lord of Yongcheng said and looked at Liu Rong. Seeing Liu Rong's brows furrowing tighter and tighter, she couldn't help but become more and more nervous in her heart: "This, isn't this good?" ”
"It's not bad, it's just that why don't you persuade the Holy One about this? and took out another fifty thousand taels of silver. Liu Rong frowned and asked the county lord of Yongcheng: "Do you know that such a thing will put your Prince Guo's mansion in an embarrassing situation?" ”
"How could this?" The county lord of Yongcheng didn't believe it.
"Everyone knows that the glass formula is a very valuable thing, and it is okay to say that you have dedicated it at this juncture, but if the saint wants to mobilize hundreds of officials to do this, you should persuade it, this donation has been voluntary since ancient times. If there is a clean official with clean sleeves and can't donate silver, but everyone else can donate a lot of silver, wouldn't it hurt the clean official? ”
"Don't talk about this, just say that you donated such a sum of money later, and tell the officials in the future how to donate silver, everyone only knows that the Dao is the first of the people in your Prince Guo's mansion, and everyone will suffer from this, and everyone will not be able to resent the saint, so they will all hate you." Liu Rong's brows furrowed deeper and deeper: "When the time comes, there will be a bad one, a person who holds a grudge, and will make a hindrance from it, maybe your brother will be in danger in the frontier." ”
When the county lord of Yongcheng heard Liu Rong's words, his face turned pale in an instant: "This, how can this be good?" ”
Liu Rong also had a headache, she still had a lot of things to do in the Tai Hospital, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen here in Prince Guo's mansion, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight.
But this matter must be solved today, otherwise the consequences will be even more unimaginable, and we must think of a way.
Liu Rong couldn't help pacing back and forth as she thought about it.
The county lord of Yongcheng watched Liu Rong keep walking back and forth, and he was also anxious in his heart, and he regretted why he was so clever and messed around, and he didn't ask Liu Rong's opinion first, such a thing would be the same later, although it was not as effective as coming in person. But at least it won't cause any trouble to Prince Guo's Mansion.
Suddenly, Liu Rong squatted down.
The county lord of Yongcheng couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward: "But what can I do?" ”
Liu Rong looked at the county lord of Yongcheng and couldn't help but helplessly: "It's lucky, there is a way, but you have to go to the saint immediately in a while, persuade the saint, and tell the saint what I said." ”
The county lord of Yongcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face: "I know that Liu Rong is the most powerful, what is the way?" Tell me quickly, tell me quickly. ”
Liu Rong sighed: "The solution is very simple, turn the order to donate from hundreds of officials into a charity sale." ”
"Charity bazaar?" The emperor looked at the county lord of Yongcheng and couldn't help but wonder slightly: "What does this mean?" ”
The county lord of Yongcheng thought about what Liu Rong said to herself, and thought carefully about it again before he spoke to the emperor: "The emperor's uncle's previous way is actually a bit of semi-persecution, why don't the emperor's uncle gather the empress dowager's concubines to donate some small items that he likes every day, and then hold an auction." ”
"The auction is to gather all the noble officials and the famous merchants in the capital row to gather together and bid for these things."
"When the time comes, it can be said that the money from the sale will be sent to Jiangnan to help the people affected by the disaster in Jiangnan. And the name of this auction can be called a charity sale. The purpose is to raise funds for the people affected by the earthquake in Jiangnan. The county lord of Yongcheng said and secretly glanced at the emperor, after all, she didn't remember all of Liu Rong's words at once, but just remembered a little bit, plus her own understanding, worried about what was wrong with this.
"Go on." The emperor listened intently, and looked at the Yongcheng County Lord's eyes that lit up slightly, obviously very satisfied with such a method.
The county lord of Yongcheng breathed a sigh of relief slightly: "That's it, Uncle Emperor, if you feel that the silver is not enough, you can also auction the glass formula." The county lord of Yongcheng pondered for a while, thinking about the method Liu Rong said, and after saying the last method, he also told her that if she didn't want to dilute the benefits, she could not do it. And, this method can completely eliminate the influence of Liulifang's excessive silver making on Prince Guo's mansion.
The county lord of Yongcheng finally gritted his teeth, looked at the emperor and continued: "The method of this auction is different from the general method, but it is to directly sell the rights and interests of the distribution land. ”
In fact, it's like a modern specialty store, selling the right to operate in each city. Of course, in ancient times, there was no such thing as brand rights, and ordinary merchants couldn't do it at all. But the royal family, the emperor is different. Because he can make this thing an official office, he can naturally auction the recipe and control the auction of the distribution rights of various cities.
The emperor listened to the words of the county lord of Yongcheng, but his eyes lit up, and his eyes were even more amazed: "It's really a good way, I didn't expect Jing'er to come up with such a good way, so that the silver and silver of Jiangnan's disaster relief may not have to worry." ”
The county lord of Yongcheng couldn't help but be embarrassed, this was what Liu Rong thought at all, but Liu Rong was really powerful. Not only is his medical skills good, but he can also come up with such a powerful method. For the first time, the county lord of Yongcheng felt that having Liu Rong alone could make a family really completely different.
After roughly saying some more, the county lord of Yongcheng retired, and she still had to go out of the palace with Liu Rong and go back.
But it was said that as soon as the county lord of Yongcheng left the imperial study, the emperor's face sank and became as majestic as usual: "Gonggong Li." ”
"The minions are here."
"Go and find out who the county lord of Yongcheng has seen since he left the imperial study." The emperor commanded lightly to the eunuch.
Gonggong Li couldn't help but be slightly surprised: "Does the emperor think that this method is not what the county lord thinks?" ”
The emperor looked ahead: "If it was really the county lord's idea, when I said that I would ask the minister to donate silver, the county lord should have stopped it." But it won't be so long before I come back and talk about it. Apparently someone had an idea. Moreover, the method that the county lord said was really ingenious, and it was by no means something that ordinary people could come up with. I would like to know who has such ability. ”
The Emperor's voice became lower when he spoke, almost muttering.
Gonggong Li stood close, but he heard it all in his ears, hurriedly answered yes, and retreated.
Soon, Gonggong Li hurried back: "Shengshang, you really guessed correctly, the county lord left the imperial study, and went to the Tai Hospital to see your newly sealed Imperial Doctor Liu, according to the palace maid, when he was talking in the middle, he also sent everyone back for a while.
