In Dazaifu, everyone is staring at Gong Hongran, waiting to see how this guy who doesn't know the height of the sky will end.

Gong Hui walked up to Bo Ya, presented the "Si Min Zhi" to Bo Ya with both hands, and said, "Please take a look at Dazai-sama." ”

"Has the Sili Mansion co-examined?"

"I've assisted in the review, and the Sili Mansion has a bottom."

"Hmm."

Bo Yao opened the bamboo ce carelessly, if he didn't have to go through the motions, he didn't even bother to read this "Si Min Zhi", the content on this "Si Min Zhi" was irrelevant, he knew that Gong Yan would not be able to complete the task. However, he must sell Xi Shi Niangniang a favor, in addition, for the sake of Gong Wanran, who is still sensible this year, he has to act like this no matter what, and he only needs to reprimand Gong Wanran for a while, and scare and scare the ministers. In the end, I coaxed the public to take advantage of the situation and brought him over.

Bo Yao's eyes jumped up and down, looking at the content of "Si Minzhi", suddenly, he frowned, and his originally fat forehead actually squeezed out a shallow fold, he took "Si Minzhi" close to him, and read it carefully word by word.

The ministers were stunned by Bo Yao's action, they didn't dare to make a sound, but they each frowned, guessing what Bo Yao saw.

After seeing it, Bo Yao stretched his brows and laughed: "Haha, Gongyanran, what a Gusu Simin, amazing!" It's amazing! ”

The ministers could not guess what was going on in any way, and they all exchanged ears and talked about it.

Bo Yao waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then Bo Yao pointed at Gong Wan Ran and said: "Gong Wan Simin, I am not surprised that you just said that you failed to complete the task, I just think you are young and frivolous and talking nonsense. Even if you sign it, I will ask the king to forgive you for your sins. But I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it to be like this, haha, good, good! ”

Gong Wan saluted and said, "Dazai-sama, this official has indeed failed to complete the task, and I hope that your lord will be forgiving." ”

"What kind of tolerance, if you do it like this, you still need to be tolerated, then these old things, everyone can die!" Bo Yao pointed to the group of ministers in front of him and scolded.

The public bowed his head and was silent, and the ministers were full of suspicion, you look at me, I look at you, and they didn't dare to speak out.

Bo Yao pointed to Cai Kuo and said, "Cai Sikou, come here, come, read it to everyone, let everyone listen to it, and listen to what everyone has done this year." ”

"Whoa."

Cai Kuo was a little scared and a little curious, he paced in front of Bo Yao in small steps, and saluted to take "Si Minzhi".

Bo Yao pointed his hand, "Read this paragraph." ”

"Whoa."

Cai Kuo opened "Si Minzhi", just glanced at it, and was taken aback, and read it for a while before reading word by word: "The government-run incense factory, the profits are handed over, and the gold is one hundred and fifty-two taels; commercial tax, tax payment, three thousand eight hundred taels of gold; A total of three thousand nine hundred and fifty-two taels of gold were handed over. ”

After listening to Cai Kuo's reading, all the ministers blew up all at once, everyone couldn't believe their ears, no one could have imagined that the "unfinished" that Gong Wanran said was actually three thousand nine hundred and fifty-two taels of gold, and they couldn't understand how the young man in front of them did it.

"Do any of you know what the business tax revenue was last year?" ”

Cai Kuo hurriedly saluted Bo Yao and replied, "Lord Hui, last year's commercial tax revenue was less than six hundred taels of gold. ”

Bo Yao patted a few cases and scolded loudly: "Listen! Listen to it! Last year, it was less than 600 taels, and in just one year, the people were able to raise the commercial tax to 3,800 taels! You ministers! Which one of the pillars of the court can do it!? ”

The ministers bowed their heads one after another, and no one dared to speak.

Gong Wanran said: "Lord Dazai, although the Simin Mansion has increased its income by three thousand nine hundred and fifty-two taels of gold, after all, it has not been able to complete the task of increasing the income of four thousand taels, please forgive me." ”

"This can be regarded as complete, you can tell me how to increase the commercial tax revenue all of a sudden."

"Wow. At the beginning of the year, thanks to the permission of the adults and the allocation of preparatory funds, I was able to open an incense factory; Thanks to the hard work of the workers, it was able to produce a large number of spices, and a total of 15,000 catties of spices were produced throughout the year; Of course, our merchants are also really rare, they are not afraid of hard work, travel around the world, this is why the spices are sold. Although the profit of the incense factory was insignificant, the various commercial taxes generated by the spice business increased significantly, and the government-run industry and commerce drove the private business, and finally achieved an increase of 3,952 taels. ”

"The profit income of the incense factory is only one hundred and fifty taels, which shows that you have kept the profit very low, so the merchants have the incentive to sell. But if this thing is changed to someone else, it will definitely not be done, the government-run industry and commerce oil and water are so big, who can give all their profits to others like you!? Oh, good! What a public servant, you have done a very good job in this matter! I will reward you with great rewards! ”

Gong Wan hurriedly saluted, "My lord didn't mention punishment, I am very grateful, how dare I ask for a reward?" ”

"There is no need to say anything about this matter, Gonghui Simin, you have let the entire Wu Kingdom have a good year!"

"Your Excellency is overrated."

After the end of the Diet, the ministers left Dazaifu.

Gong Wan Ran, as before, walked back silently, and the other ministers passed by and saluted Gong Wan Ran, and they said flatteringly.

"Lord Gonghui, you are really a young talent!"

"Lord Gonghui, I always knew you could do it!"

"Lord Gonghui, I don't know where your family lives? During the Chinese New Year, I have to pay a visit. ”

"Lord Gonghui, I wonder if you are married? I have a little girl in my family to marry......"

Gong Wanran has always been polite and respectful one by one.

After the others dispersed, Cai Kuo stepped forward, put his arm around Gong Wanran's shoulder, and said happily: "Brother Gong Hui, you are really amazing!" I was scared to death before, and I thought that if you go to prison, I will have to call the brothers to treat you well, but I didn't expect that you would have completed 3,952 taels! That's amazing! That's pretty much it! ”

"Thank you Brother Cai for your concern."

Gonghui was about to salute, but was held up by Cai Kuo, "Brother Gonghui, you are so polite, don't always salute and keep talking, we are officials in the same dynasty, and we can be regarded as brothers!" ”

"Hmmm......"

"By the way, Brother Gonghui, I don't understand, three thousand nine hundred and fifty-two taels and four thousand taels are forty-eight taels, you can just look for it, isn't it done? Why is it so bad? ”

"Brother Cai said with a smile, I have done this, I have used all my strength, where can I do it like you said, I can do it with a casual search?"

"No, these forty-eight taels are a fraction, if you want to complete it, you can definitely complete it."

Gong Wanran smiled and shook his head.

At this time, Cai Kuo suddenly realized, "Oh! I get it! I get it! Ah! O my brother! You're such a god! Tut-tut! Awesome, if it were me, I wouldn't have thought of it! It's almost a little bit, but it's much better than it's done! If it is done properly, or even exceeded, it will be even more difficult to do next year. Moreover, even if this is missing, it can save enough face for Lord Bo Yao! Right!? Right!? ”

Gong Wanran still shook his head with a smile, "What's the matter, you really think too much, I've used all my strength." ”

"Brother Gonghui! I'm really convinced of you today! Served! Served! You'll be my brother from now on! Brother, please bow down to your brother! ”

Cai Kuo knelt on the ground after saying that, and Gong Wanran hurriedly supported him and said, "Lord Cai, how can this be done!" Where can I afford it?! ”

"Brother, although I Cai Kuo has no strengths, I am also an upright person, I am convinced of you from the bottom of my heart, if you don't recognize me as a younger brother today, I won't be able to get up!"

"Lord Cai, I can't help it!"

"Is my brother looking down on me?"

"Where the words! Lord Cai is a thief, honest and fearless, and has always been praised, both of us are still young, and they are both officials in the court, so they naturally cherish each other. It's just that how can I be, where can I be worthy of such a courtesy from Lord Cai? ”

"Brother, that's fine, today I recognize you as my brother, if there is any unrighteous act in the future, people and gods will be angry, and heaven and earth will be punished together!"

"Hurry up, please! You and I will be brothers in the future, but it is not appropriate to be commensurate with each other in the DPRK and China. ”

"Good! Brother! ”

"Hmm...... Master Cai, I have some linen cloth here, if you need it, you can take some and distribute it to the homeless. ”

"Thank you, brother!"

"Hmm...... No thanks...... Brother. ”..
