Chapter 0838 - Pointing to the Maze
Liu Chan had long thought that maybe someone would not be afraid of his own power and smash his own field, in his mind, this person was likely to be Sun Ce, but he never thought that the person who finally helped everyone express their dissatisfaction with himself and wanted to do something to his own field would be his father, hearing Liu Bei's words, Liu Chan's face suddenly changed.
Liu Bei didn't care and ordered: "Let him come over!" ”
Liu Chan didn't dare to refuse, so he could only call a slave and let Wang Erlang come, Wang Erlang came here with some trepidation, and approached, Liu Bei and Sun Jian immediately recognized him, Liu Bei smiled and said: "I just felt a little familiar, it turned out to be Erlang who sold meat porridge, hahaha, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it." ”
"Meet Sikong." , Wang Erlang also knew their identities at this moment, and hurriedly met Liu Bei and Sun Jian.
"I said, Wang Erlang, we are just hearing the wonders, why don't you continue to talk about it?" , Sun Jian asked with some displeasure.
Without waiting for Wang Erlang to explain, Liu Chan spoke: "This is what I ordered, this is the way of doing business in the local area in the future..."
"Hmph, what way, this is not good, not good, you change it, let him finish the whole story today!" , Liu Bei said unhappily, Liu Chan was a little embarrassed, lowered his voice, and said: "Father, only in this way, they will come again tomorrow, if the story is finished in one day, then what will happen tomorrow??" ”
Liu Bei still didn't agree, he looked around, and said: "You see that so many people are still unsatisfied, what is the money?" Let's talk about it all at once! In the eyes of Liu Bei, Sun Jian and others, money is indeed nothing, but all the famous people of the Han Dynasty are able to minister, there are those who are greedy for wine, there are those who are greedy for fame, but there are few people who are greedy for money, and money may be the least worthwhile thing for them.
But Liu Chan doesn't think so, he does so many things, isn't it just for money? Isn't doing what my father says in vain?
Liu Chan was still hesitating, Liu Bei was already a little annoyed, frowned, and asked, "What?" Still not comply? ”
Liu Chan raised his head and said, "The child has his own ideas, I'm afraid I can't do it!" ”
"Oh? All right. Liu Bei nodded, and chatted with Sun Jian, never mentioning this matter again, Liu Chan breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time had some doubts, he thought that he was going to suffer from his father's abuse again, but he didn't expect to be persuaded by himself so easily, which made Liu Chan a little confused, but he had a lot to do, so he didn't continue to stay here.
It wasn't until Liu Bei and Sun were determined to leave that Liu Chan stopped in front of them, looking at Liu Chan's smiling face, Liu Bei said impatiently: "What? Anything else? ”
"Father, father-in-law, this courtyard pavilion is still nameless, and please ask Father to give a name to the courtyard!" Liu Chan said seriously, bowed to Liu Bei, Liu Bei heard this, thought for a moment, and said: "I see that in your courtyard, you are talking about some virtuous and loyal martyrs, so it's called Xuxian Academy....", Liu Chan was overjoyed, looked at Sun Jian again, and said: "I also hope that my father-in-law will give the pavilion a name." ”
Sun Jian stroked his long beard with relief, and said slowly: "It's better to call into the financial building." ”
"Huh?? Enter the financial building?? Liu Chan was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he was a little speechless, Sun Jian asked, "Don't you feel bad??" ”
"Ah, it's not like that, it's good, it's good!" , Liu Chan forcibly squeezed out a smile, and everyone also congratulated one after another, Sikong and Taiwei left here, the two did not take the carriage, they sat for a long time, or walked to feel more comfortable, walking on the road, Liu Bei asked: "How could you take such a name, hahaha, you didn't see Chan'er's face was blue..."
"Oh, what's wrong with me getting a name?"
"Cheesy, too cheesy."
"Hahaha, you get a name, it's for the famous scholars, I take the name, it's for the common people, his courtyard and pavilion, not only the scholars will come, take a simpler name, but also with joy, can spread more quickly among the people, I also think about him."
"It's a pity..."
"It's a pity that I can't eat that porridge anymore."
The first opening was very good, especially the story of Erlang, which attracted countless people, word of mouth, the name of Xuxian Yuan was so spread, which was also indispensable to Liu Chan's rush, Liu Chan found a lot of people, specifically to spread the matter of Xuxian Academy, just after a period of time, Xuxian Yuan became hot in Luoyang, countless people came to the famous place, overcrowded, such a huge courtyard, are a little unable to accommodate so many visitors.
Liu Chan did not hesitate, and prepared to set up branches in the remaining counties in the Sili area, in his mind, this Xuxian Academy was going to be spread in every corner of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Chan was not the only one who saw the prospect of the Xuxian Academy.
Houde Hall.
Yuan Shang put the relevant documents in front of the Son of Heaven.
Liu Xi picked up the paperwork with some doubts, but after just looking at it for a moment, he laughed, shook his head, and said, "Xianfu, why are you bothering, the child of the Sikong family has opened a wine shop, and you have to report to me in person?" ”
"Your Majesty, it's not a wine shop, where you can have a dinner, there are dancing girls and the like, just after a month of development, it has become more perfect, there is everything, if it is developed, it will definitely be all over the whole territory of the Han Dynasty."
"So what? Isn't it good that the children of the Sikong family can work hard and be self-reliant, even if they are just a businessman. ”
"Your Majesty, I think the embroidered messenger can send a large number of people into the Xuxian Courtyard, and it is more convenient to find out the news here than in other places...", Yuan Shang said seriously, Liu Xi listened to Yuan Shang's words, then nodded, and said with a smile: "Xianfu, you are my eyes and ears, you don't have to come to me in person to tell me about these things, just decide for yourself." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" , Yuan Shang bowed.
The two were chatting, and Qi Yue suddenly shouted outside the door: "Shang Shu Ling Xun Yu respectfully asks Your Majesty to bow down!" ”
Liu Xi was stunned for a moment, looked at Yuan Shang, Yuan Shang bowed to the Son of Heaven, walked out, walked to the door of the hall, and saw Xun Yu who was waiting, Yuan Shang bowed to him, and left, Xun Yu watched him leave thoughtfully, and then walked into the main hall.
"Chenyu greets Your Majesty!" , Xun Yu bowed to Liu Xi, waited for a while, but did not wait for the Son of Heaven's sentence of exemption, Xun Yu respectfully maintained the appearance of saluting, only to hear the Son of Heaven say: "Get up." Xun Yu slowly stood up and looked at the Son of Heaven, Liu Xi frowned, looking a little angry.
"Xun Linggong, what's the matter, I came here again to find out the news that I went out?"
Xun Yu's face was calm, and he bowed to the Son of Heaven again, and said, "The minister is guilty!" ”
"What is Ling Gong's crime?"
"I revealed the itinerary of the Son of Heaven to Deng Ai, and asked him to wait for Your Majesty outside the city, so that Your Majesty can see the method of polders with his own eyes."
"I saw it, and the public merit was high."
Xun Yu didn't argue, just stood there, very open, with his head down, silent.
Liu Xi sighed, and then said: "Xun Linggong, if you want me to pay attention to agriculture, you can just play, why do you have to do this?" No one can reveal my itinerary, how can you, as Shang Shuling, not know? ”
"If the minister is guilty, I hope His Majesty will punish him."
"I'll punish you for a year!"
"Sincerely."
"Alright, Ling Gong, sit down." , Liu Xi beckoned, let Xun Yu sit in front of him, and then said: "This time, this time the matter has passed like this, I don't care anymore, but if there is a next time, I won't forgive!" Xun Yu thanked him, and Liu Xi said seriously: "What Deng Ai said to me that day, I also sent someone to check, he didn't deceive me..."
"Nongsang is a national plan, and it can't be relaxed, Deng Ai's decrees related to Nongsang should be done, and Shang Shuling should help him more..."
Xun Yu nodded.
"Hey, my ministers, none of them can be idle, Kong Ming and they are busy compiling new laws, Liu Ba is busy issuing banknotes, Deng Ai is busy promoting polders... Yesterday, Cao Chong played again, saying that he wanted to change the tax law. I can't afford to be idle for a day!! Liu Xi seemed annoyed, but Xun Yu could see that the Son of Heaven was in a good mood and couldn't hide the pride in his heart.
The Son of Heaven loves talents, and he is not afraid of being busy, seeing that these ministers have come up with more policies, the Son of Heaven is indescribably proud and happy in his heart, Liu Xi asked with a smile: "Cao Chong's recital, Shang Shuling has also seen it?" ”
"I haven't seen it."
Liu Xi picked up a sheet from the case and handed it to Xun Yu, Xun Yu took it, and then he looked at it seriously, this is what Cao Chong played, which probably means that today's taxes are too complicated, although they are not heavy, but the fields involved are a little messy, and some places are vacant, so Cao Chong wants to formally determine the taxes.
Xun Yu went directly to the end to see what taxes he wanted to formulate.
"Goods increment tax?" , Xun Yu saw the first one, and he was already confused, what is this? Xun Yu raised his head suspiciously, looked at Liu Xi, Liu Xi stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "The so-called increase in goods is the value-added generated by the circulation and processing of today's commodities, Xun Linggong doesn't know?" ”
"Your Majesty is talented, but the minister doesn't know!"
"Spending tax... Business tax, big business tax, resource tax, mountain and forest tax, housing tax... Vehicle and vessel tax... Carriage purchase tax, ship tax...", a total of sixteen of these taxes, Xun Yu was confused, he had never read a book on this subject, he didn't know much about taxes, Cao Chong wrote the content, even Xun Yu couldn't understand it, but fortunately, Liu Xi on the side was not in a hurry to help explain the meaning of the taxes.
"Xun Linggong, what do you think?"
"It's... The minister is stupid, and the minister does not know. ”
Liu Xi said proudly: "Since Xun Linggong still hasn't understood, I will explain them to Xun Linggong one by one." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Qi Yue, who was standing at the gate of the palace, also looked at the Son of Heaven with admiration, the country is giving Shang Shuling guidance, what a rare thing this is, the country's great talent, although Cao Chong entered the palace yesterday and informed the country of these in detail one by one, but this does not prevent his reverence for the country's profound knowledge.
