Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Buying Fair

The dancing girl with soft waist muscles showed the most beautiful dancing, and the funny and eccentric Youling tried her best to win attention, and under the stimulation of food and wine, the banquet soon entered a climax.

The banquet of the main family is set up in the palace, and there are only a few seats, and all the people sitting are high-ranking officials or Confucian celebrities. Outside the house, there are flowing water seats to greet a large number of nobles.

"Brother Zi, what about the magical child you often mention?" The high-ranking officials who were full of wine and food were scattered around the front yard in twos and threes, and Huangfu Song couldn't help but ask questions first.

Zhu Jun on the side nodded, indicating that he asked the same question.

Lu Zhi smiled and said, "What do you think of today's meal?" ”

"Naturally it was very tasty. Brother Zi didn't ask, a certain family really forgot about it. Today's dishes are all ordinary things, why is there such a difference in taste from the past? Even the wine has become overbearing, why? ”

"Especially the pastry called the cake, which melts in your mouth, and the dumplings, and the ......"

"Brother Gongwei, send the cook over, as for porcelain, ironware, and fine wine, you have to pay for it."

"Could it be that this is the means of this son?"

"Haha, this is really interesting!"

If you let the world know that Zhao Yun, one of the five tiger generals who is admired by Yile, peddling special products among the nobles, he will be stinking for 10,000 years if he is not beaten by the crowd.

In addition to Zhang Fei, all the teenagers in Lousang Village mobilized, accompanied by drinking and laughing, acting in a beautiful way, and worked hard to sell various specialties of their hometown to the bigwigs in Kyoto.

Zhang Fei had no choice but to follow Liu Bei as an entourage, he was already ready to do a big job, but he was caught up in a difficult and glorious task, hey, Yile this kid.

There was a quarrel in the eight-tone orchestra, and the reason was very intriguing, just because the musician got a few notes wrong.

Yile knows very well that only one person in the entire Han Dynasty will be so strict with the rhythm.

"The instrument is in the hands of others, and the rhythm is naturally controlled by others, and outsiders can only hear their own feelings, at most they are close to the musician's thoughts."

"You're unreasonable."

"You're not being reasonable, people have the right to play their own music.

You see, no one else heard anything. Yile pointed to a group of people in front of him and said.

Following the direction he pointed, Cai Yong looked, a group of musicians played the piano and drums in unison, and the singer stroked her long sleeves in the breeze, with a graceful posture.

The samurai also danced their swords to the music, and they were extremely heroic.

Cai Yong sighed and said, "The rhythm shouldn't be like this. ”

"The rhythm has always been like this." Yile didn't know where to find a few cups, and they clanged.

Cai Yong listened for a while, and found that Yile kept licking or pouring water into the cup, and soon after, he actually knocked out an abnormal rhythm.

"On the basis of the pentatonic scale of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu, the master invented the seven-tone scale, and the tone is infinitely varied." After Yile finished speaking, he knocked on a short paragraph at the beginning of the later "To Alice".

Cai Yong was immediately attracted by this peculiar performance and tone.

Since Cai Yong is a great talent and a great writer, being an official will ruin his temperament. And the fact is that he should belong to the whole world, not the sacrificial wine of some emperor or pseudo-emperor.

"The first teacher said that music, like learning, needs to be close to life, and all kinds of life, whether it is good or bad, happy or sad, are all part of life."

"Music?"

"It's the rhythm, the music of the sound."

Cai Yong nodded and said, "Master Ling is a master in the world. ”

"Wrong, the ancestor is not a master, he said that those who continue to learn for the saints are masters. For example, Sima Taigong's "Historical Records", because he told the truth and was punished by the palace, but fortunately, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty forbade women and eunuchs to interfere in politics, so he was able to save his life, otherwise do you think such a mastery can be handed down?

Kyushu is angry and thunderous, and thousands of horses are sad. I advise the heavenly prince to be vigorous and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern. Cai Gong, take care! ”

The reminder has made it very clear, Cai Yong should know why he has been ostracized in recent days and why he has always been impeached.

Not only Cai Yong needs to be rescued, but Zheng Xuan needs it even more, Lu Zhi tried to rescue his friend who was in prison last year, but he couldn't get the desired result if he didn't do it right.

In fact, Yile doesn't understand very much, since the eunuch's power is so huge, so huge that he can cover the sky with one hand, why not find someone to take a ride and send some money to redeem people? Such a simple and effective method would not have been thought of by anyone, right? Is it because of the so-called scholarly bones?

Another purpose of coming to Luoyang this time is to get a few learned gentlemen back by the way, and it would be great if Zheng Xuan could serve as the hall of Lousang Village School. As for Cai Yong, he should know what he should do.

The birthday banquet of Lu Mansion lasted for three days, and Lu Zhi never appeared again except for entertaining some friends on the first day, and of course Liu Bei and Li Tao were stiff for the rest of the days, so Liu Bei was very busy.

There is someone busier than Liu Bei, and Mr. Lao Li, the bookkeeper, just handed the calculated list to Yile Dao:

"Xiaolang, the list of porcelain is out, one thousand three hundred and fifty-two sets, and several companies asked to order more than 50 sets, but they were all rejected."

Yile took the bamboo slips, looked at them and said, "Yes, when the list of carriages, ironware, soy sauce, and yuba is calculated, we should leave for home." ”

"Child, it's obviously a birthday party, why did you make it the same as a shopping party?" Zhao Yun felt that the child's title was very suitable for Yile, although Liu Zisang had a lot of opinions, but his fist was not big enough. Yile didn't care, because he felt that Zhao Yun was qualified enough to be called like this, maybe the Han people were qualified to call it like this.

"Eating people with soft mouths and short hands, our things are priced so high, if we don't let them eat and drink well, how can we sell things?"

"You mean that's how I got into the trap in the first place?"

"You are different, if you don't want to come, who can help you!"

Yile always felt that sooner or later Zhao Yun would find out what the problem was.

"Don't talk about these useless things, do so many things, what do you want to do?"

"You'll know when you get back to Lousang Village."

"I didn't say I was going back to Lousang Village with you."

A million dollars for a new carriage, even Lu Zhi couldn't believe it. When he saw that Yile had sold all the money from the other two carriages he had given him, he was no longer surprised that anything had been done about Yiraku.

"Gong Lu, what you have to do with all your efforts, the kid has already taken care of it, and when Mr. Zheng comes out, if there is nowhere to go, or if you are bored, Lousang Village is a good place."

Lu Zhi, who had just calmed down, was shocked again, it was actually embarrassing to be seen through, but it turned into gratitude on Lu Zhi.

"Boy, don't talk about the noodles, if you can use Lu in the future, just ask."

This is not easy, and the promise made by the dignified Lu Zhi is very rare.

"By the way, you also saw just now, I sold all the carriages, do you want to give me a share of yours? Lousang Village is a long way away, and the kid's body is unbearable for long-distance fatigue......"

Lu Zhi's newly raised gratitude immediately disappeared again.

"Actually, it is not suitable for Duke Lu to have this new carriage now, and it is a good choice to dedicate it to the emperor."

In the end, Yile still coaxed and took away a carriage. Lu Zhi gave him a lot of books in return, looking at a large pile of bamboo slips, Yile secretly made up his mind to return to Lousang Village and get the paper out as soon as possible.

Xuefu five cars, this praise is simply an insult for later generations, a carriage of bamboo slips at most 100,000 words, 500,000 words of learning, but also learn rich, the amount of reading of any primary school student in later generations exceeded this number.

The way home is always a little faster, and everyone who rushes by has this illusion. In fact, it took seven days to return to Zhaojiazhuang.

"Why don't you go back and see?" Yile looked at Zhao Yun and smiled.

"I had already decided when I came out, I wouldn't go back if I didn't defeat Zhang Fei, and didn't you say that there was a top master in Lousang Village?"

"But your brother is not in good health, and didn't you say that you have already set a wedding date?"

"How do you know my brother is not in good health?"

"Guess."

There are always people busy in the fields in spring, and there are always sensible children who have ploughing cattle at home who have been led out early, and everything seems to be harmonious, and they seem to have forgotten the food they have worked so hard to grow, and they can't even fill their stomachs when they can get it.

At this time, people will always hope that someone like a god will come down and redress the injustice for them.

The people of Zhuo County have a lot to say about this, and since the appointment notice sent from Luoyang in April, they have thought that Liu Bei is the person who looks like a god.

Lousang Village built a lot of buildings, built roads and bridges, opened up wasteland, recruited many craftsmen and tenant farmers, and reported to the imperial court to apply for the acceptance of homeless savages, and was newly registered and managed by the government, which was approved by Liu Hong, and at this point, he still showed the emperor's wisdom.

More and more displaced people have come out of the mountains, so there are more and more fortifications, and the population feeding plan has begun, and it is necessary to start to deal with the optimization of the industrial chain.

The fifteen taxes implemented by the imperial court are one, plus 10 yuan per mu. When it is implemented for the common people, it becomes 15 taxes 7 and 15 taxes 8, because the land they cultivate belongs to large households, and the tax rate is naturally set by large households.

The first thing Liu Bei did after serving as the county magistrate of Zhuoxian County was to reduce the tax. Reducing Liu's tax collection to 15 taxes and 1 tax, which is so much money that there is nowhere to put it, is unacceptable for Zhuo County's current expenditure.

It is incomprehensible to want to use the power of the government to force the upper household to implement the fifteenth tax as well. This way of doing things, which is bound to cause the masses to attack, cannot be changed under the persuasion of Yile's mother-in-law.

"Big brother, what do you think? Can this kind of thing be rushed? Fat people don't eat in one bite, and if you do this, your work will be wasted. ”

"Isn't it just for the people to live and work in peace and contentment?" Liu Bei stubbornly retorted.

Yile said angrily: "The population of Zhuo County is less than 100,000, and now it is all in the hands of these big households, they will not feel hope because of your kindness, on the contrary, they will let them be like a man, and you will harm them and yourself." ”

Seeing Yile's anger, Liu Bei calmed down instead, remembered Lu Zhi's words, and said, "Then what should be done?" ”

Yile calmed down and said: "The reduction must be reduced, how to reduce it to make people comfortable and willing, there are a lot of things to do in advance." Don't forget that the big families are also the people of Zhuo County, so we can't favor one over the other. ”

It is very laborious to explain the degree effect to Liu Bei, but it is very useful to achieve the purpose of managing large households through degrees, and things that are easy to use cannot be wasted. (To be continued, please collect)
