Fu Qian didn't have any ideas, so he could only smile and say: "If we can learn from the imperial court, the salt wine monopoly, I'm afraid it will be really rich." ”

The Great Wei court's ability to make money is also really great, because of the difficulty of mining and management, the iron industry is always at a loss, so it simply changes to sell licenses, that is, to give rich businessmen the qualification to open mines, from which they collect heavy taxes, and the government profits anyway, and private mines and iron factories are rarely at a loss.

As for the monopoly of salt, wine and tea, it made a lot of money for the Great Wei court.

Hearing Fu Qian's words, Xu Zixian's eyes lit up.

"The prince has an idea?" Fu Qian smiled: "I said that the prince will definitely have a way." ”

Xu Zixian listened and smiled, it seems that he has spent a lot of money recently, and in Fujian and Zhejiang, he also asked Xu Zixian to hang up tens of thousands of rewards, and he felt that the money and food were sufficient at that time, but now he seems to be too confident.

The people below will definitely talk about it from time to time, but in Fu Qian's words, it is estimated that he still trusts Xu Zixian, and not too many people doubt that this prince has no way to lead everyone out of the quagmire.

"We'll talk about it in the evening." Xu Zi stepped on the war horse first, the big green horse neighed, and he jumped hard, and he said to Fu Qian: "It's going on here as usual, come to the other courtyard to discuss at night." ”

Of course, Fu Qian hurriedly agreed, the farmhouse of the Secretary Pavilion has not yet been determined, and many people think that the thick and simple Chen Zuocai is very suitable, and the Si Congcao can give Chen Daojian to take care of it, plus some mature officials, and the guards are presided over by Lin Shaozong, so there should be no big problem.

But in fact, the responsibility of the division from Cao is getting heavier and heavier, undertaking official documents, recording files, tracking the progress of major projects, checking the development of farmland, which is divided into various places, the most eye-catching is the Department of Integrity at present, the selection is proficient in arithmetic, the character and knowledge of the officials, it is said that the Division is responsible for inspecting the corruption of officials, waste, fraud, and power and money transactions, with public fat and private, and even the law officials do not obey the law and all things, all of which are inspected by the Department of Integrity.

In addition, if a new company is established, it is also very important that the company is responsible for the overall operation and management.

After all, Chen Daojian is too young and very smart, Xu Zixian originally wanted Chen Daojian to take the road of the imperial examination again, but after this period of consideration, he felt that it was no longer necessary.

Fourteen years later, the original military and political system of the Great Wei Dynasty suffered great damage, as evidenced by the death of the King of Qi, and everything fell apart from then on.

When ruling the world, civil officials are valuable, and the status of Jinshi will add a lot of points.

In troubled times, it is enough to govern the government with grammar officials, and the status of martial artists will skyrocket.

This time, Fu No. 1 went to the Japanese country, Chen Daojian was ordered to go, and in the future, Si Congcao presided over the company's affairs.

Even if Chen Zuocai has to take turns, there are not many scribes around Xu Zixian, he has to cultivate everyone, and every one of them must be of great use.

……

Speeding down from the official road around the island, Xu Zixian did not go in the direction of the official road at the wharf.

He galloped all the way to the southwest, and he remembered that there was a large barren beach.

In later generations, it was the Tainan area, and the Huaxi area was originally a large port area in later generations, and it was a world-famous shipbuilding base and trading area.

Further southwest, it is also the place where the Dutch once stopped, and the Dutch once built a rather majestic castle high on the beach by the sea.

Now there are of course no castles here, only large woods, gentle slopes to the beach area, shrubs, and large white sand beaches.

Xu Zixian stopped galloping on a hillside, and Lin Shaozong and the others formed a fan-shaped guard circle behind him.

After half a ring, several scribes rushed over.

Xu Zi jumped off his horse first and walked down the hillside.

The guards in armor were a little embarrassed, and it was not a good idea to walk on the soft sand stalls wearing dozens of pounds of heavy armor.

At this time, Xu Zi first made a hand gesture, signaling that they didn't have to follow anymore, which made the soldiers breathe a sigh of relief.

Only Lin Shaozong followed with a knife, ignoring Xu Zixian's instructions at all.

Xu Zixian only has a large sea in front of him, and the white sand beach is not visible at a glance, compared to the scenery around Huaxi and Nan'an River, this is still a wild land.

This is also normal, if you look at the map from the point of view of the island, this is about the southernmost point of the island, the mountains have a clear confluence in the south, the plains and the mountains are very close to each other, and the Dutch often send troops into the mountains to sweep the area, killing the unruly natives, and capturing a large number of natives for hard labor.

But Xu Zi didn't like these first, there are large tidal flat areas, and his impression is like this, when he saw the actual large shallow tidal flats, Xu Zi first breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked on the beach for a long time, seemingly aimlessly, until the sun went down and walked up from the beach.

Xu Zixian, who walked to the beach, was full of smiles and was in excellent condition, which can even be described as a spring breeze.

Lin Shaozong and the others looked at each other, not knowing what medicine the prince had taken wrong.

……

Because he was too happy, but there was no one to communicate with, when he arrived at the Houfu Courtyard, Xu Zixian didn't care about greeting Chen Zuocai and the others who greeted him, and went directly to the back house.

"How about eating meat dumplings today?" Xiuniang smiled before saying a word, and asked Xu Zixian about the arrangements for dinner.

The little sister said on the side: "Drink some warm drinks first, don't be greedy for cool drinks." ”

Xiaomei and Xiuniang are coming up, the back house is mainly servant women and maids, and there are also small maids for sending away, Xu Zixian does not want to lock Xiaomei and Xiuniang in the house, raising out the boudoir lady and relatives who do not step out of the door, Xiaomei and Xiuniang will occasionally go to the newcomer camp, send some food, and win more hearts for Nan'anhou Mansion, but most of the time they still stay in the back house, and there are many things in the back house, and Xiaomei and Xiuniang are happy in it.

The garden is huge, covering an area of more than 20 acres, with winding paths and pavilions all over the pavilions, with all kinds of trees, flowers, rocks, pools, reading books and playing every day, you can kill a lot of time.

In addition, it is to study food, Xu Zixian is very hard, and he also has the problem of adapting to the water and soil on the island, so Xiaomei and Xiuniang try their best to make some food for him to nourish his body.

Xu Zixian didn't speak, just rushed forward with a smile and picked up the little sister first.

The little sister screamed in surprise, and found that the heavens and the earth were spinning, but it was the elder brother who lifted her in the air and spun her around.

"Put it down, put it down......," the little girl screamed.

Xu Zi put the little sister down first, and then picked up Xiuniang and turned around, Xiuniang was not good at yelling, but blushed.

The servants and maids around laughed, and the little sister complained, "How did you go crazy when you were so good?" ”

Xu Zixian laughed and said, "Is it a little crazy, or is it because you are too happy!" ”

"Did you make any new tricks?" The little sister said curiously: "I know that Fu Muzhi will take you to see new things again today." ”

"Yes," Xu Zixian smiled: "But it has nothing to do with Fu Muzhi, I remembered this matter myself!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"I've been worried about money lately," Xu Zixian said seriously: "I'm always thinking about how to get hundreds of thousands of dollars in the near future, but I don't have a good person like Chen Yutai to send heads and money, it's really sad." Chatting with Fu Muzhi today, speaking of this matter, Fu Muzhi said that if he could learn to sell salt, wine and tea with the imperial court, it would of course be a big profit. ”

Xiaomei and Xiuniang looked at each other, and they didn't understand what Xu Zixian was talking about for a while.

"The tea mountain just opened?" Xiaomei said: "It's still very early to plant tea, collect tea, fry tea, and make tea cakes?" ”

"That's right, in fact, if I didn't have the status of a prince, it would be against the law of the country to grow tea and sell tea." Xu Zixian smiled loudly and said: "In order to develop the Eastern Domain, Taizu encouraged the clan to go to the island, and there were words first, industry and commerce were forbidden, iron casting was forbidden, salt boiling was forbidden, coinage was forbidden, and tea making was forbidden. In fact, at the beginning of the country, all kinds of monopoly control was not strict, Taizu was a great man, when the country was founded, because it was to fight with the northern captives, to exhaust all the country's strength, so there were all kinds of monopolies, and later the grid has been completed, and it can't be changed if you want to. Even so, it was an opportunity for the common people and the clan to play their role, and both the Eastern Domain and Yunnan at that time had similar policies, and if they could conquer the Western Regions, they would do the same. Yingzhou and other places in the northeast are also average. Later, the rights of the people were collected, and only the clan still had these powers, and the Eastern Domain could be described as a treasure given to me by God. ”

Xiaomei and Xiuniang didn't understand these very well, but they could see that Xu Zi was very happy at first, and the two women smiled along.

Xu Zixian is indeed very happy, the court is already weak, but when the authority has not yet collapsed, he is in a state of hostility with King Zhao, and it is not a good thing if he has a clear handle to be caught by the opponent.

Fortunately, there was a mouth in the past, coinage, tea, salt, and mines, and the law could not be forbidden.

This was to encourage development, not only in the Eastern Domain, but also in many frontier areas.

In fact, Taizu still passed away in the middle way, and many exhibitions failed to be implemented.

For example, Xu Zixian felt that placing the clan in Jiangling and Fuzhou was not Taizu's final idea, and placing it in the northern and western regions and the border counties in the south would not only allow the clan to enjoy wealth and prosperity.

And not only the clan, but also many nobles with the surname Xu who have made great contributions, regardless of the prince, can be placed in the border counties.

Then recruit troops for these clans and nobles, allow them to go south and west to fight, and the territory they have won can be feudal, so that China is still a big country with centralized power, and there are parliaments to check and balance the imperial power, and there are feudal countries to check and balance China, which is to make the internal and external control and the flow of talents.

This is the Great Wei secret, hidden by the emperors of later generations, it is said that the original inscription is hidden in the stone tablet of the inner court, only the prince who is set up as the heir is eligible to watch, and those who dare to leak secrets in the inner court will be beheaded.

Xu Zixian was very curious about this matter, but he didn't have too strong a desire for knowledge, whether Emperor Taizu was a traverser or not, or whether he had these precepts, this was all in the past.

But making good use of these laws is something that Xu Zixian should consider now.

"I'm going to make some work on salt." Xu Zixian said to Xiaomei and Xiuniang: "The price of salt is expensive, fine salt has reached forty wen a catty, even black salt cakes are twenty wen a catty." The official price is sold by the official, and in recent years, the government has not been able to govern, and there is a lot of gravel and gravel in the fine salt, which is equivalent to a disguised increase in price. However, the people know that if they don't eat salt, they will be edema, and they still have to endure the pain to buy, if we can sell salt, the price is 20 wen a catty, it is still a huge profit. ”
