Chapter 193: As a butcher, the master also has a hand

"Even if he makes delicacies from the mountains and seas, he can't eat them."

Li Ran smiled meaningfully, spread his hands and said, "Besides, Xian Hui'er can't eat spicy food when she is pregnant, I will eat light things with her, and her mouth is about to fade out of the bird, and today is just taking the opportunity to satisfy her hunger." ”

Pei Min had nothing to say and stretched out his thumb...... Fingertips pointing down.

"Rest for a few days, and when Zhang Cambodia's old goods are ready, I will go to the tax bureau to clean up a plate."

Li Ran stretched his waist, how to move next, there is already a charter.

"Even if Master Zhang is willing to comply, those subordinate officials of the tax bureau will not be convinced."

Pei Min reminded him not to wave, and said in a deep voice, "Their working hours are too short, and they can use their lack of experience to prevaricate." ”

"Yo, your IQ is topped up?"

Li Ran smiled in surprise, Pei Min had never cared about these idle matters before, he only watched the excitement and did not participate, and today he took the initiative to propose, it seems that this month's class was not in vain.

“…… What are you going to do? ”

Ignoring Li Ran's ridicule, Pei Min was curious about how he would deal with it, he didn't believe that Li Ran would not take such a simple factor into account.

"Of course, it is to convince people with reason, yes, at present, private enterprises have just been established, and the function of the tax bureau to do its own work is indeed not enough, so it is normal for those subordinate officials to pull out the band, they have backers behind them, and they are also the thorns picked out by the six departments, deliberately stumbling on me, to clean them up, and the name is justified."

Li Ran put away his joking face, he did have a plan.

Moreover, it is absolutely certain that the other party will spiral into heaven...... This group of fools only guarded him from being a demon in Luoyang City, but they didn't expect that a friend who was thousands of miles away gave him a big gift.

"As a reward for your willingness to use your brains, I might as well tell you a secret."

Li Ran patted Pei Min's shoulder, "The cattle and sheep from outside the plug are almost here." ”

The god-like topic changed, and Pei Min was stunned for a while before he thought about what he was talking about.

The first indemnity of the Turks, 10,000 cattle and sheep from the steppe!

"What does this have to do with the assessment of the tax bureau?"

"Of course, you might as well think about the functions of the tax office, and one of them is ...... Set a tax rate on the goods you buy and sell! ”

Li Ran smiled, and a hint of sharpness flashed in his eyes.

"Ploughing cattle are not allowed to be bought and sold in the market, so there is no tax at all, and sheep are also a source of scarce materials, and there is very little buying and selling in the market.

"So, do you say that those people in the tax bureau who are eating and waiting to die, will they be stumped by how to tax cattle and sheep?"

Li Ran's rhetorical question was deafening, and Pei Min's admiration arose.

This kind of improvisation is really unguardable...... The subordinate officials of the tax bureau are probably going to be unlucky.

Of course, as the one who is calculated, he is still unaware.

The hundred officials and scholars didn't even know that Zhang Cambodia wanted to assess the work of the tax bureau with Li Ran.

You can't take the initiative to say that you should hurry up and prepare to meet Li Ran's thunderous punch...... As a secretary of the ministry, he still wants to be faced, and he doesn't do such things as blatant favoritism.

Therefore, until the cattle and sheep from outside the Sai were transported to Luoyang City by the official army, the subordinate officials of the tax bureau were still unaware that the butcher's knife had reached their heads.

The long transportation procession opened the eyes of the people of Luoyang City.

They have seen the world, but the long queue of cattle and sheep is indeed spectacular, but the smell of cow and sheep in the air is a bit pungent and spicy to the eyes.

Li Xian was happily worried.

Let the Turks pay tribute and compensation, as the king of the Tang Dynasty, it is definitely a merit worthy of a special book, all thanks to the virtuous son-in-law, his name as an old man has left a lot of scenery in history.

However, how to deal with such a large batch of cattle and sheep is the most difficult problem.

Luoyang has no pasture, and it can't afford to raise so many animals, and these animals pollute the environment by eating, drinking, and lazing, and waste manpower to take care of them.

After thinking about it for a long time and still having a clue, Li Xian had to write an official document and invite Li Ran to enter the palace to face the saint...... In extraordinary times, it is very means, don't stay at home, come out to breathe.

Li Ran happily accepted the order.

Pretending to be sick or something depends on the time of the occasion, obviously, you have to be honest with your father-in-law.

After the carriage entered the palace, Weng and his son-in-law directly waived the polite etiquette...... In front of Li Ran, Li Xian couldn't pick up the shelf even if he wanted to.

"Virtuous son-in-law, what should I do with these cattle and sheep?"

Throwing the pot with a single knife, the subtext is very clear, the thing is what you want, how to deal with it in the future, let's do it together.

"Your Majesty, I have the final say, it's not good, the people in the court, I'm afraid it's dissatisfied."

Li Ran smiled and fired a shot at the hundred officials and scholars first.

"Hmph, they dare, you just say it, if the officials dare to make noise, I will punish them!" , Li Xian patted his chest stiffly, full of arrogance.

Look at how people don't like such a responsible old man.

"Then invite them to the Imperial Study." , Li Ran no longer took the shelf, he only said that he was recuperating at home for three months without asking about foreign affairs, and now, the three-month period has arrived.

It's time to turn back into that arrogant Tang Immortal Master!

An hour later, the six chiefs arrived one after another, all of them were anxious and full of anticipation, and the emperor took the initiative to summon him after he dispersed, which was the treatment of people close to him, and he had face.

However, after they rushed into the imperial study, they saw Li Ran with a wicked smile on his face for the first time, and their mood suddenly took a 180-degree turn...... It's terrible, and most of them are going to be deflated again today.

are about to be pitted out of the psychological shadow.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I summoned you today, just for one thing, I think you also know, a few days ago we went to the Turks and forced the Turkic Khan to sign a treaty on land reparations, and now the first indemnity, 10,000 cattle and sheep have been transported to Luoyang City, how to deal with these cattle and sheep, please speak freely."

The crowd looked at each other and asked them? They haven't seen such cattle and sheep before, okay.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that these cattle and sheep can be processed in batches."

Looking at each other in embarrassment, Li Ran spoke...... These goods are not famous, and there is no need to waste time.

"Oh? The virtuous son-in-law said quickly. Li Xian also did not hide it, and the chief officials of the six departments suddenly came back to their senses, and asked them to come today, which was to accompany them to carry out the order part-time.

"Three ways to dispose of it."

Li Ran stretched out his fingers and broke them down one by one.

"First, kill some of them who are weak or unaccustomed to the soil and water and are about to die, cut the meat and sell it to the market, the price can be lower, and it should be a welfare for the people of the city, of course, how to slaughter, among them, there is no means of meat quality inspection at the moment, so we can only call experienced butchers, and bury the obviously sick cattle and sheep separately, and the rest will be allowed to flow into the market, otherwise it is likely to cause a plague."

He is by no means sensational, the Turkic environment is so harsh, and it is normal to bring some viruses and bacteria.

The heads of the six departments looked at each other, and they couldn't pick out the slightest thorn in this approach, but in the next second, they knew that they were thinking too much.

Li Ran, sure enough, it's still that Li Ran.
