At a glance, Dai Xuan suddenly felt bad, only to see him look at Chen Feng with a shocked expression, "Dasi Nong, this thing is going to spread all over the entire Tang Dynasty?" His voice trembled, and when he looked at Chen Feng, he still had a little pleading, probably hoping that he would not say anything too cruel.

"Otherwise, how can we achieve the effect of benefiting the whole country, if there is one less state, the people of that state must be dissatisfied, right?" Chen Feng looked at Dai Zhou with a smile, he knew the reason why Dai Zhou was shocked.

This project is indeed a project for the benefit of the country and the people, but once the bow is opened, there is no turning back, once the construction begins, there is no way back, and the project can only be completed, otherwise it is better not to start at the beginning.

"Lord Dai is worried, and the lower officials know it in their hearts, but now that the treasury is full, the money will roll in in the future, and what does it matter if it is taken from the people and used by the people?" Chen Feng looked at Dai Xuan with a smile.

This person, on the other hand, is a steward of His Majesty, in charge of the money bag of the entire Tang Dynasty, so Chen Feng can fully understand his worries.

It is necessary to manage the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the people across the country, if you can't be careful and cautious, I am afraid that the entire Tang Dynasty will follow up and down to eat chaff and vegetables.

"But ......" Dai Xuan naturally knows the truth of taking it from the people and giving it to the people, but if he wants to take out so much money from his household department at once, he will still panic! The most important thing is that the treasury is still empty, and he is worried about spending the money before it arrives, so how can he relax?

Chen Feng also smiled bitterly, he knew that this was the case, and this drawing should not be shown to Dai Guan, but Duan Lun had never taken care of the money, he didn't know the mood of the money manager, and when he saw Dai Guan's depressed face, he immediately said: "Lord Dai, you have agreed to the court, and you have accepted the decree issued by His Majesty, so it is difficult to resist the decree at this time and not obey it." ”

Duan Lun, Chen Feng once studied, the reason why this person is still in the Ministry of Industry is not because he has no opportunity to transfer, but because he has a great interest in the things researched by the Ministry of Industry, and he is unwilling to leave the department with the least power and status among the six departments.

However, for such a person who is obsessed with research, Chen Feng has a good impression, which is probably related to his previous profession, both of them are academic researchers, Chen Feng naturally knows how to impress him as quickly as possible, maybe Duan Lun still has some doubts about his method of ensuring income from drought and flood, but the moment he saw the drawings, he was completely captured.

This is the way the heart of a scholar is desperate to turn some ideas in his head into reality. But this method is completely unfeasible for Dai Guan, first of all, Dai Zhou does not have the same mind as scholars to study academics, he is a politician through and through, and secondly, he is the person who manages the money bag, although the money bag is not his, but he still wants to take the money from his hand, and the silver is taken out, and it is not effective in a short time, so he naturally does not want to let go.

However, for a politician like Dai Guan, there is one method that is best, since there is no way to convince him, he uses force to make him submit, and when he sees the drawings in his hand, his first thought is that it will cost the silver taels that have reached the sky, but this silver taels, in essence, belong to the one sitting on the dragon chair, and have nothing to do with him, as long as he wants to.

So, Chen Feng repeated again, "Is Master Dai going to resist and disobey?" ”

When Duan Lun asked this, Dai Xuan didn't have much turmoil in his heart, and he only said two words lightly, but if this word came from Chen Feng's mouth, the meaning would be completely different, who doesn't know now, this person is already His Majesty's spokesperson above the court, and his meaning largely represents His Majesty's meaning.

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Feng's words fell, Li Shimin's eyes glanced at him, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a "plop", "Your Majesty Mingjian, Weichen is not disobeying the order, it's just that it's just ......."

"It's just that the amount of silver taels that need to be taken out is too huge, and Lord Dai is uneasy?" Without waiting for Dai Zhou to finish speaking, Li Shimin interjected and asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty Mingjian!" Hearing Li Shimin's words, Dai Zhou seemed to have found a soulmate, kowtowed heavily, and almost cried bitterly.

"Alright, get up." Li Shimin will never be too harsh on loyal ministers and good generals, especially at this time, it is a critical moment, and he must not change generals on the spot, otherwise, I am afraid that it will be delayed for some time, "Dasi Nong said well, this matter is taken from the people for the people, and there is nothing to do, and if agriculture is developed, the treasury will be more and more abundant." ”

Seeing that Li Shimin's words were all this, Chen Feng sighed helplessly, big people like to say half and leave half when they speak, let you find out by yourself, if you are wrong, he will cut off your head, which is enough to make the civil and military officials tremble: "There is only one thing in Lord Dai's heart, which is the problem of silver two." ”

"Xiaguan and ask you, during the Gaozu period, if the people couldn't pay the land tax, what should they do?"

"This ......" Dai Xuan said, if the Sui Dynasty or even before, the people could not pay taxes, they had to pay taxes through labor, but after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there was no major construction, so they canceled the forced labor and forced the people to pay taxes, of course, they were all grain produced in their own fields.

On the whole, Gaozu was sympathetic to the people and did not treat the people harshly because of the emptiness of the treasury, but due to natural disasters, after the people paid taxes, they had no surplus food in their hands, and their lives were still not good.

Although he was shocked and prepared, and had done his homework before, hearing Dai Xuan say this, Chen Feng was still silent for a moment, "Lord Dai, look, although this plan has invested a lot of money in a short period of time, but in the future, the people are not afraid of drought and flood disasters, and the output in the fields will naturally increase a lot, and even if the tax is not raised, the national economy will develop a lot." ”

"More importantly, adults say that the country is rich and the people are strong, but Fang Zhi said that the people are rich and the country is strong, and the people are rich, from bitter to sweet, they will naturally be concerned about the good of the court."

"There is one thing, we know very well, the people actually don't care who is the emperor and who is in power, and even if the Tang Dynasty is not the Tang Dynasty, they don't care." Speaking of this, Chen Feng secretly glanced at Li Shimin, and saw that there was no other look on his face, before he continued, "But what if Datang gives them something that others can't give?" ”

If the Tang Dynasty gives something that others can't give, the people will naturally remember the good of the court in their hearts, and they will also have a sense of belonging to the court.
