The Tang Dynasty has been in the Central Plains for many years, some drawbacks have appeared, hidden acres are one of them, this matter will inevitably cause shock in the court, but it will also touch the interests of many magnates, but it is also a method that has to be implemented, the sooner some lesions are removed, the better it can also increase the grain income of the court, and it can also reduce the burden of farmers is the best of both worlds. In addition, now that the old ministers of the DPRK and China have withdrawn from the court one by one, it can be seen that the DPRK and the DPRK have reached a situation of old change, so that new officials can be cultivated.

The younger the officials, the more daring they are, the more they are motivated, and after the imperial examination, there are a lot of idle officials who have been stuffed in the court, and now they have been put on hold, and they can be used to take them out for a walk.

After having a specific concept of Fang Tian's equalization tax method, Li Er then asked, "Now let's talk about your equalization method." ”

Gu Qing took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, the previous one is aimed at agriculture, so this one is against business." ”

Business? Li Er squinted and looked at Gu Qing, Gu Qing has been secretly promoting the flow of commerce all these years, and in just a few years, the flow between Chang'an's and Gu Qing's business has become bigger and bigger, this can be seen from Gu Qing and the eldest grandson Wuji's wrist wrench, Fang Xuanling has also mentioned more than once that it is time to take care of the businessman, Gu Qing and the eldest grandson Wuji didn't see anything at the beginning, and after letting it go for a while, Li Er found that Gu Qing's business was old acquaintances, and the wild horse that had escaped from the reins ran all the way.

"Your Majesty." Gu Qing continued, "The so-called equalization method is simply eight words, the expensive is cheap, and the near is easy to far. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the surplus and shortage, the ability of the people in various places to buy things is different, and the price of commodities is also different, and the merchants' one-handed business is restricted. ”

If you want to talk about Fang Tian's tax law, Li can understand it, but he doesn't know much about this commercial law. adjusted the surplus and shortage, and then said, "Gu Qing, what you said is not something that can be achieved overnight. ”

"Your Majesty is right." Gu Qing raised his head and continued, "Under the prosperity of business, business predators will naturally appear!" ”

"Business predators?" Li Er smiled, "Gu Qing, are you talking about yourself?" ”

"Ahem, cough, ahem......" Gu Qing cleared his throat in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, I digress." ”

"Actually, I can see it." Li Er looked at the past, "Those hungry merchants who do business with your factory, you will keep an eye on the price of goods, and your factory is also in control, but what is the situation of the merchants in Chang'an, what has become of the business after a few hands, you yourself are also dark-eyed." ”

"It's not like that." Gu Qing said with a smile, "If the price is made transparent, and all localities have the trading rules and prices that should be in place, it will be much clearer, and then it will be transferred, labor costs will be saved, duplication will be removed, and farmers will be relaxed, which is the method of equal loss." ”

Li Er finally understood a general concept, but he still had to make a decision after discussion in the court.

"Are these two recitals really made by Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu?" Li Er was suspicious.

"Yes." Gu Qing's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he was not afraid of boiling water.

"That's good." Li Erzhen said, "You step back first, and I will pass on the two of them to let them tell me about this Fangtian Equal Tax Law and Equal Loss Law." ”

"Huh?" Gu Qing raised his head blankly, "Your Majesty, that ...... The two of them must be sick by this time. ”

"Hehehe......" Li Er's laughter was very cold, "Gu Qing, Gu Qing, why do you want two people to make such a big turn, just tell me directly, you still dare to bully the king!?" ”

Gu Qing bowed his head and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, in fact, this is not the case, the minister just wants to be polite, and the courtesy is still exchanged." ”

Seeing that this kid looked like he was cheap and well-behaved, Li Er was angry in his heart, "Get out!" ”

"Hey." Gu Qing stepped back.

Gu Qing left the Ganlu Hall Li Er kept looking at the palace in front of him with empty eyes, as if he was doubting life, after a long time, Li Er's breathing became more and more rapid, and he smashed the things in front of him angrily, "This bastard boy!" It just doesn't make sense! It's a good national policy, he actually ......"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......" Wang Qin hurriedly said when he saw that Li Er was about to drop the calligraphy and painting, "Your Majesty, that is Wang Xizhi's ......"

Li Er stopped his hand and turned around and smashed a potted plant, "This bastard boy, he knows how to eat and wait for death on weekdays!" A good national policy is still a gift to me! One Li Yifu, one Xu Jingzong, two copies of the chapter, one person and one person, but they also understand, are he and I also doing business? ”

Wang Qin stood aside and did not dare to speak at all.

Three days later, news came from the court, Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong both entered the Shangshu Ling and became the squire of Shangshu Province, and Gu Qing's two recitals caused a sensation in the court, and Li Er had to summon Cen Wenwen, the eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, to discuss together.

The court meeting has been going on all day, from early morning to dusk, until this matter has finally come to a conclusion, Fang Xuanling has drawn up a specific chapter all night, Li Er remembered the scene in the Ganlu Palace, and the inexplicable anger in his heart rose.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Empress Eldest Sun saw Li Er's thoughts.

"Gu Qing, this kid!" Li Er wanted to speak and stopped, and then sighed.

"The concubine heard that Gu Qingxian's strategy has a lot of opponents in the court." Empress Eldest Sun was worried.

"Guanyin, if you think about it, the matter of clearing the tax law per mu is actually beneficial to farmers and magnates, why are some people opposed." Li Er was worried, and the more people who opposed it, the more it showed how serious the matter of Guanzhong's powerful people secretly hiding acres of land was.

"Your Majesty is really worried about who will do this." Empress Eldest Sun poured tea for Li Er and said.

Li Er understands very well that his wife knows himself very well, and he can see through his heart at a glance.

Empress Changsun continued, "There is a saying that a good bell must be tied to the bell, and vice versa is the same. ”

Li Er smiled and nodded.

Gu Qing was fishing for fish alone, and dusk was a good time for fishing, and Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong both came with a smile.

"You two have a good conscience." Gu Qing looked at the motionless fishing line.

"Master Hou." Xu Jingzong said with a smile, "This time I entered Shangshu Province, in fact, the two of us are very worried, Master Hou wants us to help calm down the Lingyan Pavilion in the court." ”
