If the light of luck made Zixu see hope, although the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, but it still made people excited for a while, and Cao Cao's side was completely a tragedy.

The Great Dynasty will only be held once a year, so it will be held for a long time, and Cao Cao, as the current strongest force above the court, has nothing to say, although Zhang Hong's obvious overtures made him satisfied, but also had a headache with Liu Bei's strength.

"My lord asked the foreign minister to ask Your Majesty." After Guan Yu reported the grain and taxes on Liu Bei's side before last year, he straightened his upper body and said in the direction of Liu Xie.

Although the amount of grain and taxes reported by Guan Yu is quite large, and it can even be said that it is too much, which makes Liu Xie very happy, but Xun Yu and Zhang Hong vaguely predicted the amount hidden in it, and Liu Bei has more than such a little money and grain.

Of course, Zhang Hong and Xun Yu also left room for maneuver when they reported, and it was difficult for ordinary people to notice, but although the data reported by Guan Yu was higher than that of Xun Yu and Zhang Hong, it was not significantly greater than the amount of money and food spent on raising soldiers and education.

Although the number given by Guan Yu was personally checked by Chen Xi and Liu Ye, it was basically closed data, even if it was an audit, it was a tight fit, but as a wise man, sometimes you can get approximate data based on feelings and guesses, and you can't do it.

"To put it bluntly, the Great Dynasty Meeting is a place to speak freely and determine the people's livelihood in the coming year." At this time, Liu Xie did have such an imperial spirit, and he did not show any other expression for Guan Yu's courtesy inquiries from foreign ministers.

"My lord feels that the people of the world are in difficulty in eating salt, and I am willing to provide salt for the people of the world based on the price of grain." Guan Yu's majestic voice covered the entire court, and the audience was suddenly silent. This news has been received by the major families, and it can be said that Liu Xie is the only one left who does not know about it.

Liu Xie frowned. He really didn't know whether to agree to this kind of thing, and he couldn't help but show a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart. It stands to reason that this kind of major event should be communicated to the emperor before the great court meeting, and then promoted by the emperor.

Sima Yi's keen eyes caught the moment when Liu Xie's frown, and then smiled, "General, I'm afraid I ignore that this salt tax is a heavy tax of the Han family, if the price of salt is too low, how can the country form a loyal guard based on this?" ”

Sima Yi's words seemed to help Liu Xie, but in fact, when he heard Sima Yi's words, Cao Cao deliberately glanced at Sima Yi, who was very young. And it's also very insightful, and by the way, it's still my own people.

Cao Cao is now very clear about the fact that what Liu Bei wants to do must be destroyed, otherwise, the gap between himself and Liu Bei will become bigger and bigger, and the salt price, which the world has promised Chen Xi, is also something that needs to be destroyed as much as possible.

However, although Cao Cao wanted to destroy, he did not stand up, and the reason was very simple. There is no need to stand on the opposite side of the World Family, at least he needs the support of the World Family very much now.

Of course, there is also a very important point that Liu Bei can get benefits from doing this is not very big in Cao Cao's opinion, although it can indeed receive the hearts of the people. But this kind of people's will floating under Cao Cao's rule is not very important, and Liu Bei did not specifically say that he made the price of salt lower, as long as this article is sealed, there will be no impact.

Cao Cao did not rely on salt taxes to raise soldiers. The price of salt is low, and he can be more relaxed on his side, so Cao Cao's motivation to resist this policy is not very sufficient. After all, there is no need to have hatred with the family, and he is not the kind of power that Chen Xi and Liu Bei have. There is already enough capital to fight against the family.

However, Cao Cao is still willing to add blockage to Liu Bei, and Sima Yi's words made Cao Cao very satisfied, even if he can't stop the family's promise to Chen Xi, then it's still okay to disgust Liu Bei.

"Qing's words are indeed reasonable, but the salt benefit is related to the people's livelihood, and the reduction of salt prices is indeed good for the people, as for the salt tax, it is a heavy tax for the country......" Liu Xie said that there was a moment of pause here, and Guan Yu did not raise his head, about this response, Liu Ye has already done a good job.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Marquis of Dongting has checked the account books with my lord, and I ask Your Majesty to take a look." Guan Yu's expression has hardly changed, the best thing about Liu Ye's spiritual talent is that it is multi-faceted, and to Liu Xie, who has been in contact with an intellectually weak chicken, Liu Ye has long prepared what Liu Xie might say, as well as his correct answer.

Soon, a eunuch bowed his head and handed the account book prepared by Guan Yu to Liu Xie, and Liu Xie looked at it and immediately looked happy, Liu Bei and Liu Ye handed over the salt tax to him so generously.

Suddenly, Liu Ye's eyes looked at Guan Yu a lot more comfortable, and he said in his heart that Liu Bei and Liu Ye were worthy of being models among the Han clansmen, although it was stated that because Qingxu, Jizhou and other places needed support, they did not plan to pay taxes themselves.

But it's nothing, after all, this is the private property of the princes, which clan surnamed Liu made something by himself and paid taxes, Liu Bei picked out this matter like this, which made Liu Xie understand that Liu Bei is a righteous royal prince, and people also noted that except for the salt sold by Liu Bei himself, the other taxes are Liu Xie's, and by the way, the dealers are all given to Liu Xie.

Of course, these dealers are all families, where does Liu Xiechang know how powerful it is in the hands of women, and if he can't sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, of course, Cao Cao must be lying down.

"Uncle Liu Huang is really loyal." Liu Xie put the account book away, and then said with a sigh on his face.

"My lord will be grateful for your majesty's words." Guan Yu said expressionlessly, admiring Liu Ye more and more, these words were prepared by Liu Ye in advance.

Then Liu Xie glanced at Sima Yi, and in a good mood, he also had a lot of good feelings for Sima Yi, who had spoken up righteously before, and saw that Sima Yi was one or two years older than him, so he smiled, "I don't know which family the Qing family is." ”

"Hanoi Sima Yi has seen Your Majesty." Sima Yi made a frightened look and saluted Liu Xie, he knew that Liu Xie had forgotten himself even if he had seen him before, it was too nonexistent before, but this time it was enough.

Liu Xie didn't say much else, but looking at the slight nod, he knew that he had already taken Sima Yi to heart.

"My lord, be careful, with Your Majesty's mind, you will definitely collect the salt tax according to that account book, and I bet that there will be no salt tax on it." Chen Qun sent a message to Cao Cao and said, and suddenly Cao Cao's face was almost the same as the bottom of the pot, but fortunately, he was always very dark.

"My lord, don't worry, if Your Majesty wants to collect taxes at that time, just let General Dong go." Xun Yu's calming voice also came, which made Cao Cao feel a lot more at ease.

[Chen Zichuan, do you have to count ten steps for what you guys do? Cao Cao sneered in his heart, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Guan Yu, but he didn't want to see more than a dozen streamers appear outside the sky, [Uh, what is this? (To be continued.) )
