Two fireworks in Chang'an, a total of one year. The stars shine in the past year, and the life wish is endless.

In the middle of the night, fireworks burst into the sky.

The people in Chang'an City ran out one after another to look up, in addition to the fireworks in the imperial city, there was also the Li family Zhuangzi.

Some of the big fireworks flew high and exploded in the sky, even in the west of Chang'an City.

Older people, looking at the laughing children, feel a year older.

Children are looking forward to growing up, wondering when they will be like everyone else.

"Drink." Bi Gou was in good spirits, he only ate a few bites of food just now, and the wine didn't move much.

As soon as the time came, he picked up the cup and looked at everyone pleasing to the eye, and it was the New Year.

When he had drunk the wine, he continued to mutter, "A kerosene lamp for one hundred taels is sold for eighty taels of tax, and ten taels of four thousand milliliters of kerosene are sold for one tale at a time."

Two hundred taels of hot water bottles, one hundred and sixty bottles, the new year wishes the Li family Zhuangzi a prosperous business. ”

Bi Gou sincerely hopes that Li Yi will make more money, and there has never been a moment so strong.

Wei Zhigu looked at Bi Gou's appearance, and shook his head helplessly, it is difficult to be a household secretary.

Thanks to the fact that he is not in charge now, otherwise it is estimated that he is not much better than Bi Gou.

When the day dawned, Li Longji held a grand court meeting, which was attended by all the envoys of other countries.

Li Yi was not interested in the court, he went to see the patient, and the patient in Tubo was in good health.

There was no inflammation of the wound, but it was boring to lie there and watch.

Others help with urine, but the big ones don't, and the stomach is completely empty.

The patient is still amazed that he survived.

He died once, and now he cherishes the opportunity to live.

"Don't worry, according to the situation, in a few days, you can try to make a sound, but it still hurts."

Among the drugs given by Li Yi, there are still analgesics, and the amount cannot be large, because it is addictive.

The patient blinked, curiosity in his eyes.

"You want to ask why I saved you, right?" Li Yi guessed.

The patient blinks vigorously.

"You should have heard it at the time, I want to give you a good time, your injuries are too serious, I don't want to pay a big price, and in the end you still die."

Li Yi began to talk about the mental journey of that moment.

"But if Yulin Feiqi wants to save it, they want to see how much of the injury I can save at most. I saved you to see my healing skills. ”

The patient's eyes are looking at the shed, and the mood is uneasy.

His own life and death lie in the idea of Yulin Feiqi, thanks to Yulin Feiqi?

"Don't think too much, since you are alive, think about it in the future, save you and make me pay a great price, you have to make it back for me."

Li Yi smiled, patted the patient's arm, and got up to leave.

"Proprietor, many people have come out to buy kerosene lamps and thermoses."

Song De wore new clothes and happily came over.

"Let's sell it, by the way, from tomorrow, a kerosene lamp will be one hundred and twenty yuan, and a hot water bottle will be two hundred and forty yuan."

Li Yi knows why there are so many people who buy kerosene lamps and thermos today.

Many people hope that in the new year, they will use good things, and things will be bought in the new year.

Especially those who follow the learning to grow vegetable greenhouses, they have made money this year and want to buy more.

After the New Year, greenhouse vegetables began to be taxed, and ten taxes were one.

"The proprietor, is the price increase because you have to pay taxes? When other merchants pay taxes, do they pass on the losses to the purchasers as the price of goods rises? ”

Song De thinks about the problem from a different angle than before.

"When the price of some goods rises because of the payment of taxes, other goods will rise accordingly after a period of time."

Li Yi seems to have planned for this.

He continued: "There are two ways to solve the problem, one is administrative intervention, which limits prices; The other is that the market adjusts itself to achieve equilibrium. ”

"Everyone rises together, how to adjust? Money is worthless. Song De figured out what the problem was.

"If there is a lot of money issued, it will not be worthless, the total amount of money will not change, and it will be inflation in a short time.

After that, because you can't afford it, you don't have money in hand, and your purchasing power decreases, like selling things can only reduce the price, which is called deflation.

If a businessman would rather put things up and sell them at a lower price, the consequences would be an economic crisis......"

Li Yiqi saw that Song De was willing to learn and spoke patiently.

Song De forgot to sell kerosene lamps and hot water bottles, found a place to sit, took out a notebook and pen from his pocket, and memorized the main points.

Li Chengqi came over at this time, listened to what Li Yi said, and looked at Song Deji's notes.

He was not in a hurry to say things, and sat there and listened.

"The real economic crisis is not the absolute oversupply of wealth, but the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few.

Our Datang is agriculture-oriented, with a bumper grain yield, and when the price is reduced, and the grain is cheap and hurts the farmers, it can only explain one problem. ”

Li Yi paused.

"What's the problem?" Li Chengqi asked naturally.

"Foreign trade is not good enough, and industrial development is flawed.

When there is too much food, we can raise more livestock and poultry.

Adjusting the industrial structure and rationally allocating resources is a capability that the upper echelons of a country must have.

Early detection, early prevention, and early implementation are required.

Now Datang is doing a good job, stipulating the proportion of planting and breeding of each person's field. ”

Li Yi briefly talked about the problem of Gu Cheap hurting farmers.

"Millet is expensive, hurting the people." Li Chengqi said from an opposing perspective.

"Therefore, there should be financial subsidies, and the purpose of tax collection is this, and in the process of adjustment, subsidies will be used to get through the adjustment period......"

Li Yi began to talk about the problem of Gu Gui hurting the peasants.

Tell the two people that when the grain is cheap, the state subsidizes the peasants, the price of the grain remains the same, and the rest of the people eat the same grain.

In this process, grain can be used to breed and make wine in large quantities.

Wait for the food supply to decrease, remove subsidies, and maintain the balance.

"This is the meaning of the existence of the imperial court, from the initial election of a leader, the purpose is to let the leader lead him to live a good life.

Now it is not the choice of the leader, it is the change of the dynasty, whoever is in that position will shoulder the mission of leading the people to live a good life. ”

Li Yi did not say that a complete market economy does not exist in the whole world.

Any country needs administrative intervention, otherwise what is the purpose of choosing you as the leader?

"That's all for today, go sell something." Li Yi looked at Song De.

"Yes, they're waiting." Song De put away his notebook and ran away.

"Brother Yi, let me ask, you have an agreement with the Khitans, what are you going to do next?"

Li Chengqi came with questions, in the new year, waiting for everyone to start going to work, we must come up with policies.

What is not clear is what economic and cultural exchanges Li Yi pulled the Khitan to play.

This is definitely not Li Yi's own business, it involves the care of Datang and Khitan.

Whether it is peace or war, the ministers must have a number in their hearts.

"The next step of trade, from us, a little north, take the grassland, through the grassland to the Khitan, the road is easy to walk, horse-drawn sleigh."

Li Yi pointed to the north, he was going to take the route from Inner Mongolia to Liaoning, bypassing Shanxi.

The winter road in Shanxi is not easy to walk, and at the same time, it cannot achieve his goal.

"Who's leading the way?" Li Chengqi hesitated, from the grassland?

It is now the territory of the Turks, not only in the capital of the palace, but outside the Great Wall, dangerous.

"I'll go." Li Yi pointed at himself.

The brothers and sisters who read books at the outstation have the ability to go back to the starting point and subscribe, and the farmer bowed.
