Chapter 41: The Shocked Li Shimin
"I've seen Your Majesty, Niangniang......"
Li Kong was completely dumbfounded when he came in, what was he doing? A family reunion?
But...... Why are there so many people? And most of the people Li Kong doesn't know yet, such as the dozen or so Niangniang sitting over there, except for the eldest grandson queen and Concubine Yang and Concubine Ling who delivered the baby last time, who is left?
And those princes and princesses, can you report to your home before the labor-management ceremony, and introduce yourself or something? Otherwise, how can labor and management greet you?
Fortunately, Li Shimin knew this, so before Li Kong finished speaking, he directly waved his hand and said with a cold face: "You rabbit cub, if you don't go home to prepare New Year's goods for the New Year, what are you doing here?" ”
Li Kong was stunned, looked up at Li Shimin, and when he saw Li Lizhi sitting next to Li Shimin and looking at his eyes shining, he suddenly complained in his heart: The hateful daughter controls, the hateful daughter controls ......
However, he still arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the little nephew came over today to give you dividends...... Well, in addition to the cost and labor, throw away the taxes, the little nephew sent you 100,000 yuan this time, but it seems that you don't care a little too much, so the little nephew will let the money go back to make a reinvestment or something? ”
As soon as these words came out, the entire Sweet Dew Hall fell silent.
How much? 100,000?
Li Shimin was excited, Empress Eldest Sun was stunned, and the other princes and princesses and concubines were all dumbfounded.
You must know that the annual expenses of their entire palace are only 20,000 yuan, which is still saved by the household department.
But although 20,000 guan seems to be a lot, the huge palace alone has nearly 100 people in the emperor's family, plus the palace attendants, there are no less than 1,000 people, that is to say, if they are averaged, each person's annual expenditure does not exceed two guan.
Otherwise, as a royal family, they would not be reluctant to add a piece of clothing or something, and if it weren't for someone to pay tribute, they might have been like beggars a long time ago.
Now I suddenly heard that Li Kong sent 100,000 yuan, Rao is masters, who have seen strong winds and waves, have also been shocked one by one, maybe it can be described in four words: extremely shocking?
Seeing that Li Kong was leaving, Li Shimin slammed the table and stood up, staring at Li Kong with his eyes tightly, and said in a deep voice: "What is the situation?" Tell me about it, or don't blame me for kicking your boy's ass. ”
Li Kong turned his head with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Since the hero drunk started selling ten days ago, he has obtained a profit of 112,350 yuan in ten days, and the glass cup has been sold as a bundle, and the profit is 100,000 and 370 yuan, except for one of the tenths, that is, 21,000 yuan as a commercial tax, and the rest is according to four or six points, the little nephew took 80,000 yuan, and the remaining 100,000 yuan has all been sent over, of course, those fractions were intercepted by the little nephew and used as a re-investment to expand the workshop!" ”
Li Shimin was shocked again.
It's only ten days, and the net profit is more than 200,000 yuan, is this a money grab? It's not that fast to grab money, is it?
But then his brows furrowed, and he said, "Isn't the ten taxes of the commercial tax a bit high?" ”
Li Kong was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses.
Li Shimin asked, not because he had less money, but because the commercial tax now almost does not exist, even some city gate taxes are just a little casual, which is a 'tradition' left from the Liu Bang period of the Han Dynasty, and it has been thoroughly carried forward after the Confucianism was respected in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Since then, the scholar has become a human being, and he does not have to pay taxes, and now almost all the big businessmen are controlled by these scholars, and ten taxes are one, and those people must not go crazy?
Li Shimin understood Li Kong's intentions, but this approach was really a bit excessive.
Li Kong shook his head and said: "After the New Year, the little nephew will give His Majesty a special note, and His Majesty will naturally know it at that time, besides, if these things are to be carried out, it will have to wait until at least a few years later, but no matter what, the little nephew must be prepared, so as not to fall into the mouth of the tongue in the future." ”
Li Shimin bowed his head slightly, and said: "In this case, this matter will be handed over to you to deal with, and the money will be sent directly to the inner treasury, so you can stay and have a light meal together." ”
Although he was very dissatisfied with Li Kong's seduction of his daughter, Li Shimin had to admit that this kid who grew up in the Qin Wangfu since he was a child does have abilities that are difficult for others to match, and Li Lizhi will not be aggrieved in the future if he follows him.
But to Li Shimin's surprise, Li Kong shook his head in the face of his invitation.
"Your Majesty, the little nephew won't eat the meal, and the little nephew will go to see the two of them later, if this matter is done, the profits will be doubled in the future, not to mention, and it can also corrode our enemies to the greatest extent."
Li Shimin looked at Li Kong with a puzzled expression, and after a long time, he nodded and said, "In that case, then you can go." ”
Li Kong left, but Li Shimin's family didn't have the heart to eat.
100,000 yuan, and it's not from the state treasury, it's their own family, such a large amount of money is their usual five-year expenses, and this is only ten days to get, so won't their family become the richest existence in the entire Datang in the future?
Especially Li Tai, Li Ke, Li You, and Li Zhe, the four little children, they are already thinking about how much Li Shimin will give them, and then how many times they can use this money to pretend to be forced in front of others, thinking about the bastards who usually squander their money in front of them in the future, they can't help but feel refreshed.
And those concubines and princesses began to think about how many clothes they should buy after getting a lot of money, and these clothes must be the best, otherwise they will be compared to others.
Especially those concubines, they are even more wary of the sisters next to each other, thinking that they must compare the sisters next to them when the time comes, so as to win more attention from Li Shimin.
But there is one exception among these people, that is Li Lizhen, as the pearl of Li Shimin's palm, her usual temperament makes her not have much concept of money, not to mention, she already knows that her husband is Li Kong, and these people have to share the 100,000 yuan equally, Li Kong's money is almost all hers, 80,000 yuan, it feels beautiful when you think about it.
Li Shimin thought about it a lot, the current Taiji Palace is too dilapidated, and the construction of a new palace was planned by Li Shimin a long time ago, but there has been no money, so the construction has not started for a long time, and now since Li Kong can bring such a huge profit, then this matter should also be upgraded.
Li Shimin decided to wait for the end of the New Year to let the Ministry of Industry start looking for a suitable location, as for the labor to build the palace, now the 100,000 young men promised by the Turks have all been in place, and they are currently being dispersed to take care of the entire Guanzhong region, and those people will be used when the time comes.
……
Just when Li Shimin's family was in shock planning for the coming year, in the Futian Restaurant, Li Kong also saw the two people who came this time!
