Chapter 89 Youzhou Tax Administration

Zhang Rang suggested that the emperor come up with a large sum of money to build a ship for Zhang Ming to go to sea.

At first, Liu Hong was reluctant, but he thought that Zhang Ming could provide a lot of things, and as long as he sold a little, he could recover the cost.

"Okay, then give him some and let him go to sea as soon as possible."

Zhang Rang was also very happy, and wanted to see Zhang Ming again and explain it to him clearly.

Zhang Rang began to arrange.

However, at this time, He Jin couldn't sit still.

Zhang Ming was prosperous, and in Luoyang, within a few days, his fame soared.

Zhang Ming's rapid growth was completely beyond his expectations.

There is news from the palace that he will be entrusted with a heavy task.

The news in the palace is not very accurate, and He Jin is worried that Zhang Ming will grow up and threaten his interests.

So, He Jin asked to meet the queen.

He Jin is the queen's own brother, so it is much more convenient to meet.

When he arrived at the palace, He Jin met Queen He.

"Queen, you, you..."

Seeing the queen, He Jin was extremely surprised, this queen was much more beautiful, several years younger.

"Queen, have you eaten the elixir?" He Jin said in surprise.

Empress He was very satisfied with He Jin's reaction, and said with a smile: "It's not that I have eaten the elixir, but I do use a lot of immortal things." ”

When the little eunuch made tea, Queen He asked everyone to go out.

"Brother, there are no outsiders here, but what's the urgency?"

"Sister, Zhang Ming has risen strongly, if His Majesty reuses it and transfers it back to Luoyang, it will greatly threaten our interests, so I want to find an opportunity to suppress it." There are no outsiders at this time, and He Jin doesn't have to be so careful.

Empress He frowned, but did not agree immediately.

"Brother, Zhang Ming is just a little Taishou, he can't threaten us, even if he is transferred to Luoyang, he has no foundation alone, how can he threaten us."

He Jin was secretly shocked in his heart, this Empress He had listened to him very much before, how could she defend Zhang Ming at this time.

"Sister, although this is the case, I can't help but guard against it, Zhang Ming married Miss Cai's family, and has a good relationship with Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, Wang Yun, and Ma Riyan, if this is really transferred to Luoyang, I don't know how many people support it."

Under He Jin's repeated persuasion, Empress He did not agree to deal with Zhang Ming.

"Brother doesn't need to worry, I understand this Zhang Ming, he is loyal to the emperor and the crown prince, as long as the crown prince's position is stable, he will not favor others."

"In addition, he has other missions in Liaodong, and His Majesty will never transfer him back to Luoyang, so there will be no threat to his brother."

Queen He actually said that she knew Zhang Ming and spoke for Zhang Ming.

This made He Jin start to understand this sister, Queen He used to listen to him very much, but this time she was hindered by dealing with a little Zhang Ming.

He Jin had no choice but to leave the palace temporarily and contact his people at the same time.

Zhang Rang's side, the operation is almost the same.

Zhang Ming's reward has not changed much, he was named a township marquis, and he was added to the position of general.

The difference is that Zhang Ming has another power.

A few days later, the little eunuchs began to go out to announce the decree, and one by one they went to reward them.

Zuo Feng finally found an opportunity to go out of the palace to see Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming entertained Zuo Feng in his yard.

"Father-in-law Zuo, I brought three holy decrees here this time, I don't know what they are."

Zuo Feng glanced at the holy decree on the table, and then said, "Zhang Taishou should read it for himself." ”

After speaking, he pushed the holy decree to Zhang Ming, and Zhang Ming also took it easily.

The two of them were not at all respectful of the Holy Decree, as if they were just a very random object.

Zhang Ming took the holy decree, and he knew most of the contents in advance.

"Father-in-law Zuo, let me be fully responsible for the taxation, collection and distribution of Youzhou, what does this mean?"

The content of this holy decree is very interesting, and it actually allows Zhang Ming to manage the taxes of the entire Youzhou, he is not the governor of Youzhou, but the Taishou of Liaodong.

Zuo Feng glanced at Zhang Ming enviously and said: "This is what Gonggong Zhang won from His Majesty, Your Majesty doesn't have much money to give Zhang Taishou, but Zhang Taishou has to shoulder a heavy responsibility, Your Majesty will let Zhang Taishou control the taxes in Youzhou, you don't have to hand it over to the imperial court, you can use it yourself, but don't make the people resentful." ”

The public grievances that can't be made are everywhere, that is, it can ensure the normal operation of Youzhou, and Zhang Ming can call the extra money at will.

Youzhou is relatively poor, and the taxes are not much, but there are also a lot.

This dog emperor actually gave it to Zhang Ming directly, and let Zhang Ming manage it.

It can be said that Zhang Ming at this time is the real master of Youzhou.

Zhang Ming was very happy, so that he could justifiably intervene in the affairs of other counties.

"In the future, Lao Tzu will be the God of Wealth in Youzhou, and whoever doesn't cooperate will cut off anyone's financial route."

can control the finances of a state in Youzhou, this dog emperor is really ridiculous, but Zhang Ming likes it.

On the same day, Zhang Ming gave Zuo Feng a lot of gifts, but they were all relatively ordinary and valuable things.

But he didn't give it to Zhang Rang, but asked Zuo Feng to send a message to Zhang Rang, and when he returned to Liaodong, he would definitely look for treasures and would not forget his share.

He didn't give it to Zhang Rang because he wanted to tell Zhang Rang that he had no treasures, and he had to go back to Liaodong and go to sea to find it.

The holy decree was in hand, and Zhang Ming released the news.

"Lao Tzu is the God of Wealth in Liaodong, there should be more talents to serve, there is no need to be too high-level, it is good to be a grassroots official."

At the top level, usually three or five people are enough, and the lower the level of officials, the greater the number of people needed.

When the news was released, the whole Luoyang was in an uproar.

Zhang Ming was on the cusp for a while.

"Faint King."

"A Taishou can actually control the taxation of a state."

"There is no way for the faint monarch to pursue the ethereal elixir."

"The lessons of Qin Shi Huang are vividly remembered."

"Qingjun side, kill Zhang Ming."

There are all kinds of remarks, but many of them are made by Qingliu.

These clear streams don't have much ability except scolding.

For a few days, the whole of Luoyang was boiling.

Zhang Ming continued to search for talents.

When looking for talents, it is roughly divided into three situations, one is directly driven out, one is avoided, and the other is more warmly received.

The most is to avoid it.

After a few days of searching, Zhang Ming also found more than a dozen talents, although they are not very famous in history, but they are still qualified to hold the positions of county commander and county leader.

A few days later, another big event happened in Luoyang.

That is, the flagship store of Tanglin Restaurant is about to open.

The flagship store is very large, with a lot of private rooms, a three-story main building, and a large courtyard at the back. (Please don't worry with me about whether the Three Kingdoms have three-story buildings, this is.) )

At present, only the main building in front is open, and the courtyard in the back will also be renovated in the future.

What makes the whole Luoyang sensational is that the flagship store of Tanglin Restaurant must be entered with a membership card.

Moreover, in the whole of Luoyang, there are only more than 200 membership cards, which are all sent out by the restaurant on their own initiative, and the rest of the people who want membership cards can only take the initiative to apply for them, and they will be issued after being reviewed by Tanglin Restaurant.
