That's right! ”

Wanli nodded again and again, and was the first to say, "Those gambling houses in the people, not only do not pay taxes, but also often oppress the people, for the country and the people, it is harmful but not beneficial, but the matter of selling is repeatedly prohibited, so it is better to be supervised by the imperial court." ”

In fact, his original intention was that I would earn this money instead of letting you earn it.

"Your Majesty."

Xu Mengxi hurriedly saluted and shouted.

The cooperation of these three people is quite tacit, whether it is the cabinet minister or the governor of the East Factory, they are all beginning to be a little confused, why did they fall into this pit.

Zhang Cheng knew, so he kept silent.

Shen Shixing said suddenly: "Today's discussion is about the reform of horse politics, why do you talk about this sale, even if this move is really beneficial to social stability, but what is the benefit of raising horses?" ”

Guo Dan hurriedly replied: "Looking back at Lord Fu's words, holding Marseille has three major advantages for my country's horse politics. ”

Shen Shixing asked, "I don't know what the three major advantages are?" ”

Guo Dan replied: "First, the profits obtained by Marseille can subsidize the high cost of raising horses. As for the ten pastures taken out by Taifu Temple, I believe that all of you are also clear, not to mention a thousand good horses, I think even a thousand medium horses are difficult to raise, but on the basis of Marseille, I can raise two thousand good horses. ”

Wang Jiaping was taken aback when he heard this, and asked, "Is this true?" ”

That's a doubling of that!

Guo Dan nodded and said: "As long as there are no natural disasters, there is no problem, if you can't hand over the horse by then, I am willing to compensate in full, which can be written in the contract." ”

Isn't this kid an immortal? Wang Jiaping asked himself if there was no way, using 60,000 acres of land to raise 2,000 good horses, which is on the basis of the regulations, doubled, and this regulation has been explored by hundreds of generations, and raising a war horse requires such a large land.

Guo Dan continued: "Second, improve the horse breed. Marseille will be able to attract the best horses in the world to participate in the competition, these horses mixed together, naturally can produce the best horses, the good horses I said before, are not ordinary good horses, but the best war horses in the world, in addition, can also train the riding skills of my Ming people, in case of emergency. ”

Regarding this point, it is easy to understand, and Shen Shixing and they also nodded slightly.

"Three."

Guo Dan said: "It is also the most important point, in fact, Marseille is just a brick to lead the way, once Marseille is successfully held, it can arouse everyone's love for horses, cherish horses, and encourage more people to raise horses, because as long as you raise a good horse, that is to earn you a lot of money, only in this way, I can run well in the horse government." ”

"Good!"

Wanli said excitedly: "That's really good. ”

As soon as the words came out, he realized that he seemed to be a little overexcited, and coughed tactically twice, "What do you think Aiqing?" ”

Wang Jiaping looked at Shen Shixing, only to see Shen Shixing staring silently, if Guo Dan can do it, it is naturally very good, but the problem is that this thing is a sideshow, which is against morality, and Shen Shixing attaches great importance to ethics and morality, and always feels that it is still inappropriate.

Having said that, the middle and late Ming Dynasty was not to govern the country with benevolence, nor to rule the country by law, but essentially to govern the country with virtue, technology or something, that is secondary, this morality is ranked first, resulting in many policies, obviously for the benefit of the country and the people, but because of the violation of etiquette and the ancestral system, it cannot be implemented in the end.

But the irony is that many of those who defend these are selfish hypocrites who treat themselves leniently and discipline others strictly.

This is also why when liquidating Zhang Juzheng, some problems were found, but then again, if Zhang Juzheng is the same as Hai Rui, he has a moral cleanliness, then he will never succeed in reform, and he must play tricks, just like if you go to be a shovel officer, you can't expect that when you come back after shoveling, you will still be fragrant.

This is also one of the reasons why Shen Shixing cannot become Zhang Juzheng, that is, he attaches too much importance to moral issues, morality is not bad, but what is needed to govern the country is technology, and as the first assistant, he should put technology first.

Xu Guo saw that Shen Shixing was worried, so he said: "Your Majesty, having said that, but publicly authorizing the sale is contrary to morality and etiquette, and I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the people of the world." ”

Wanli glanced at Xu Guo with a slight displeasure.

This prevents people from getting rich, just like killing their parents!

Guo Dan immediately said: "Your Majesty, there is still a point I forgot to say. ”

Wanli hurriedly said: "Say." ”

It's a completely different attitude.

Guo Dan said: "Humble duty thanks to the emperor's grace, if there is no His Majesty's favor, humble duty can not exist today, so no matter what you do in the humble position, the first thing that comes to mind is Your Majesty's kindness, although the humble position is humble, but also eager to be able to share the worries for the monarch, the same is true for the holding of Marseille, the problem mentioned by several scholars, the humble position has also been carefully considered, if it can not benefit the country and the people, can not worry about the monarch, then do not do." ”

It is really righteous and awe-inspiring, and his heart is touching.

"If the ministers of the court and the central government are like you, why should I be so troubled." Wanli couldn't help but sigh with emotion, but he didn't think so, let this kid be an official, he used his deceased father as a shield, this brocade guard also took a lot of effort to impose on him, what is the king's worries, I can't see it at all.

Shen Shixing heard that they were embarrassed, and could only salute and say: "If you fail to share your worries for the king, your ministers deserve death." ”

Wanli hurriedly said: "Everyone, Aiqing, hurry up and excuse me, I didn't say it was you. ”

Xu Guo stood up and asked, "I don't know how this Marseille can benefit the country and the people?" ”

Guo Dan said: "If authorized by the imperial court, I will name this Marseille 'Daming Charity Marseille', its purpose is 'help the elderly and the disabled, help the poor and orphans', I will take out 30% of the profits from Marseille every year as a donation, specifically to help those living in poverty." ”

"So much?" Wanli blurted out.

Shen Shixing and the others immediately looked at Wanli in surprise.

You iron rooster, I played me last time, I will definitely play it back, you don't think I only plan to take revenge on Xu Mengxi, the old fox. Guo smiled secretly, and said: "To be able to share the worries of the monarch and repay the emperor's kindness, what is this money." ”

Not your money, of course you say so. Wanli Yuguang secretly glanced at Shen Shixing and the others, then squeezed out a smile, nodded and said, "It's rare that you have this heart, I am very moved, very moved." ”

He wasted so much effort and waived Guo Dan's commission, but Guo Dan's commission was at most one percent, and this time he spit out three percent, which really outweighed the loss.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment."

Guo Dan pretended to be stupid, and said to Shen Shixing and others: "All the scholars are capable of governing the country, and you should also know that the gap between the rich and the poor in my dynasty is getting bigger and bigger, and those who have money are very rich, but those who have no money are a problem to eat, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it will be a major hidden danger." And this horse is by no means for the poor to play, generally the rich can afford to raise, and only the rich understand the horse, this charity Marseille can gather a lot of rich people, guide them to do good together, help more poor people. ”

Shen Shixing and Wang Jiaping looked at Guo Dan in a little surprise.

It is unbelievable that a businessman is aware of the gap between the rich and the poor.

Although Guo Dan's words are very beautiful, everyone understands in their hearts that what gathers the rich to do good is clearly to win the money of the rich and help the poor.

Wanli nodded and said: "This idea is really good, not only can it improve Ma Zheng, but it can also benefit the country and the people, and maintain law and order, which is really beneficial and harmless." ”

"Your Majesty."

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "This strategy is not beneficial and harmless. ”

Wanli was stunned, I endured the pain of thirty percent and spoke for you, but you are still here to sing against me, it really makes no sense. But he said, "I don't know what's the harm? ”

Guo Dan said: "Back to Your Majesty, if I am running well in the Ma government, then naturally there is no need to do this, after all, there is no precedent for this matter, what the result is, it is still unknown, only because it is difficult for me to maintain the Ma government at present, so I am humble and make this decision, I hope to achieve miraculous results." ”

This kid scolds people very tightly! A smile flashed in Wanli's eyes, and he nodded and said, "That's right." With a sweep of his eyes, he asked again: "I don't know what you Aiqing thinks?" ”

Shen Shixing, Wang Jiaping and the others were embarrassed, Guo Dan's words were obviously sarcastic to them, if you didn't do this, how could I have the opportunity to stand here and give advice.

The iron-clad facts are in front of them, what else can they say, they used to be in charge, and the result is like this.

Shen Shixing finally relented and said, "I thought I could give it a try." ”

Wang Jiaping and others also nodded, saying that they could try, which shows that they still have reservations.

Wanli looked at Zhang Whale and Zhang Cheng again, and the two of them immediately expressed their support.

Wanli said: "Then let's do it." ”

Xu Mengxuan said suddenly: "Your Majesty, why don't you sign a contract with Guo Dan here, and have Your Majesty, the first assistant, the prime minister, the governor, and the ministers here to supervise, and you can also avoid mistakes and omissions." ”

Wanli glanced at Xu Mengxi, should I be mentally retarded.

Zhang Cheng understood in his heart, and said with a smile: "This is just an attempt, how can you be so motivated, Xing'anbo has made some fuss, just authorize your Taifu Temple." ”

Xu Mengxuan hurriedly said: "Although this matter is a trivial matter, but after all, this is a bit of a conflict with the law of my dynasty, and this is not the authority of the Taifu Temple, if there is only the authorization of the Taifu Temple, I am afraid that it will be unconvincing!" ”

Wanli often deals with Xu Mengxi, don't you know the intention of this old fox, it is clear that he wants to pull them into the water, and he and Guo Dan are discussing to let Xu Mengxuan take the blame, waved his hand and said: "Xing'anbo, don't worry, this matter has been discussed, and the cabinet has agreed, just authorize your Taifu Temple." I'm a little tired, that's the end of today's meeting, so you can leave. ”

"Your Majesty......"

"Ministers send your majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live."

The words of Shen Shixing and the others immediately drowned out Xu Mengxi's voice.

It's not up to them to take charge of this, so why should they be held responsible, it's good to be able to promise you.

When Xu Mengxi met the scoundrel-like Wanli, he could only secretly scold a few words in his heart.

Guo Danke saw it in his eyes, and thought to himself, the people standing here are really better than the other, and I can't confront them head-on. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Xu Mengxuan beside him, and thought, fortunately, my uncle is sheltering me from the wind and rain.

Out of the main hall, Shen Shixing and they left silently, as if they didn't know anything.

Xu Mengxi grabbed Guo Dan, opened his eyes and said, "Guo Dan, the matter has come to this, you can't give the old man a stall anymore." ”

Guo Dan said with a straight face: "Uncle, please rest assured, I will definitely help Uncle get this matter done." ”

Xu Mengxi felt that he was still unstable, this kid was too cunning. He smiled and said: "This old man naturally believes in you, let's go and sign the contract." ”

Believe me?

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Xu Mengxi immediately pulled Guo Dan to Taifu Temple, hurriedly drafted the contract, and an hour later, the two sides signed a ten-year contract.

"Whew... It's settled. ”

Xu Mengxuan took the contract, he breathed a sigh of relief, he really couldn't sleep at night these days, and muttered to himself: "Although that kid is cunning, if he has signed the contract, then he will still handle it, and he has never disappointed the old man." ”

As he spoke, he took the contract and looked at it again, and suddenly, he frowned, "No, it seems that something is wrong, and it is inevitably too detailed, as if it was well thought out, but he only thought of it last night." Wait, how did that news come out of nowhere, isn't it ....... ”

He carefully sorted out the story of this in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more strange it became, and suddenly slapped the contract on the table, and roared: "Oops! The old man has been tricked. ”

......

"Haha...... It's really effortless! ”

Guo Dan, who came out of Taifu Temple, couldn't help but smile proudly. This play, what kind of revenge, all grievances have been avenged, all the money belongs to him, but it is Xu Mengxi who is behind it, especially when he also takes out thirty percent from the iron rooster Wanli to do charity, not his own money, but he has earned fame, which is really happy.

Just when he was proud, he suddenly heard someone shouting behind him: "Guo Dan, Guo Dan." ”

Guo Dan looked back and saw that it was Li Gui running over, so he hurriedly looked at him and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Gonggong Li." ”

Li Gui gasped slightly and asked, "You have already signed the contract?" ”

Guo Dan nodded and said, "It's already signed?" ”

"So fast?"

"Xinganbo is anxious, so... Hehe, I don't know what Grandpa Li is looking for me for? ”

"Your Majesty summoned you to say that there are some questions that have not been asked clearly."

What else can be a problem, isn't it asking him for 30% of the profit. Guo Dan was even more refreshed when he heard it, which proved that Wanli attached great importance to the thirty percent profit, and he would definitely be very painful in his heart at this time, just like when he was played, it was also very painful.

Li Gui took Guo Dan to the small attic.

Wanli first glanced at Li Gui, and when he learned that the contract had been signed, he couldn't help but be annoyed and angry: "Guo Dan, when you told me at the beginning, you didn't say that you would take Sancheng out for charity. ”

The more I think about this, the more depressed I become, this is a thirty percent profit, and it has to be donated every year, judging from the amount of his investment, it is really a small amount, the key is nominally donated by Guo Dan, and he didn't get anything, which is really embarrassing.

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that there would be so many ministers who would oppose this matter. ”

Wanli said: "Even so, you... You can take one percent out, but you can't take three percent, how can there be so many homeless people at the feet of this Son of Heaven, if there is a disaster in the place, my inner treasury will also have to allocate funds for relief. ”

"Your Majesty, in fact, it's only one percent."

"How did you change it again?"

Wanli was suddenly confused.

Guo Dan said: "Your Majesty, holding Marseille, is not something I can do alone, this can cost a lot of money to invite people, as the so-called teaching people to fish is not as good as teaching people to fish, we take money to help those poor people, so that you can get manpower, anyway, this money is definitely obtained, even if there is a surplus, we can also build a Marseille college, cultivate specialized talents, I heard that there are more rich people in Nanjing, and then you can go there to build a Marseille." This account is actually only one percent. ”

Although Wanli is shrewd, he can't count Guo Dan in accounting, especially in such a complex account, there are many interests in it, if he plays well, he can definitely be rich and rival the country, and Wanli obviously hasn't realized this yet.

"Is that so?" Wanli was still a little skeptical.

Guo Dan said: "How dare you deceive Your Majesty, take a step back and say, even if it is thrown out of 30% pure profits, it is worth it, because this 30% of the profits can block the mouths of the people and win a good reputation for Marseille, so that it can not only last, but also make more people participate, because they will use this good deed as an excuse to bet on horses, so that betting on horses is regarded as a daily pastime, if Marseille is opposed and slandered by others every day, it will affect the business, so, Seventy percent on that basis is much more than that ten. ”

Wanli can understand this truth, after all, public opinion is controlled by Shilin, or they don't stop their mouths and quarrel with them every day, it is also very annoying, the key is not to quarrel with them, there must be some strong reasons.

Wanli could only admit it, and asked: "Now that the contract has been signed, when will this Marseille be held?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, in fact, the venue, the rules of the event, and the humble post have formulated a very complete set of plans, and what we need to do now is publicity."

Speaking of this, Guo Dan suddenly glanced at Wanli and said, "I dare to ask Your Majesty to agree to a reluctant request." ”

Wanli asked, "What kind of reluctant request?" ”

Guo Dan said: "I hope that on the day of the opening of Marseille, His Majesty can come to cheer in person." ”

Wanli panicked when he heard this, and immediately said: "I won't be involved in this matter, you let Xing'anbo and them go to the show." ”

The refusal was quite resolute.

He is a purebred fat house, except for the one time he was carried out, he has only been out of the palace once, and he still went to the same place, which is his mausoleum.

Guo Dan said: "I don't dare to disturb Your Majesty, but if Your Majesty goes, this profit can be multiplied several times, and it will be a good fortune for Mosaibo, and I think this is still necessary." ”

"How many times?"

Wanli's eyes lit up.

Guo Dan nodded and said: "If Your Majesty goes in person, first of all, this will attract great attention, and the number of bets will increase a lot, and they must all be dignitaries, relatives of the emperor, but this is only secondary, since Your Majesty has gone, why not send a horse to participate, according to the lowly estimates, if Your Majesty's horse participates, they will definitely bet on Your Majesty's horse to run first, but in case you don't run first, this..." ”

Li Gui was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in his heart, how can there be such a despicable and treacherous person in this world, is it like this for businessmen, so if you deal with businessmen in the future, you can pay more attention.

Wanli was dumbfounded, and his Adam's apple suddenly rolled down, and said, "Didn't you just say that you want to be fair, just and open, this matter is ......." ”

If you let people know, it will be a shame.

Guo Dan said: "Your Majesty, the humble position is to prove that our Marseille is fair, just and open, so I did this, why don't Your Majesty think about it the other way, if even Your Majesty's horse can't run first, isn't this fair, just and open?" ”

Is that okay too?

Li Gui was completely confused.

Because Guo Dan said it too reasonably.

Wanli became a little hesitant and said, "But if I leave the palace, the minister will definitely stop or ......." ”

Guo Dan said: "In terms of national politics, Your Majesty has to go." ”

Wanli asked again, "Why is this?" ”

Guo Dan said: "Why do you want to hold Marseille, in order to be a horse government, and horse politics is related to military politics, Your Majesty came out to support it, which proves that Your Majesty attaches great importance to military affairs, and it can also inspire the morale of the army." ”

Wanli looked at Guo Dan with a strange expression.

This kid is really good at talking, making money, as for you, it's all about military affairs, and the key is that it makes sense.

But the fat house Wanli is not a waste of fame, Rao is so, he is still very suspicious, and said: "I will think about it again." ”

PS: In the last week or so, I have to go to the salon activities at the starting point, which is also the first time I have gone out without any manuscript savings, but I will also ensure that I will continue to update, but when I go out, there will always be a lot of inconvenience in the code word, and there will be no guarantee that it will be updated on time, so the next few days will send a big chapter, guaranteed 5,000 words, try to reach 6,000 words, and the two more are no different, the number of words in this chapter is nearly 6,000 words, and there is no more in the afternoon.
