Hearing that the old man did not intend to start rectifying the rule of officials immediately, Li Chengqian's heart relaxed slightly.

Although he knew that the old man would not really play anything about equality and let others overthrow him when the time came, he also knew that it was not a bad thing to rectify the rule of officials.

However, everything must be done step by step, and it is necessary to take advantage of the situation, and it is of course important to rectify the rule of officials, but if it is at the expense of the peaceful development that Datang has won so hard, Li Chengqian believes that it is better not to rectify it at the moment.

After all, Datang is different from later generations, and the officials of Datang cannot be required according to the standards of later generations.

It's okay for you to ask them not to be poor or corrupt, but if you ask them not to use the power in their hands to make trouble, it's a bit unreliable.

"Okay, what's the matter with you, there are no outsiders now, can you say it?" His Majesty Li Er didn't take the impulse just now as a thing, enjoying the tea that the palace maid had just served, and asked Li Chengqian about the purpose of finding his study.

What can Li Chengqian say in such a situation, he can only let go of his worries, and ask for a form from Yang Yuxin and put it on the table: "Father, my son has something here, I think you should take a look." ”

"Hmm, what is this?" Comrade Lao Li put down the teacup in his hand, picked up the table on the table and looked at it, and put down the form after a while: "What is written on this is true?" Aren't you deceiving me? ”

What was written on the table was the income of the people that Wei Shuyu and the others had counted in Chang'an in the past few days, and the numbers listed on it shocked Lao Li's heart, and he almost didn't believe his eyes.

"This figure is absolutely true, but this is only the data of Chang'an City, and it does not represent the entire Tang Dynasty, not even the Gyeonggi area." Li Chengqian said in a good time.

"Why?" The old man asked.

"Because this data is only surveyed through the east and west cities and the Fang market in the city, and does not involve other regions, it can only be calculated according to Chang'an City." Li Chengqian took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said how he arranged for Wei Shuyu and others to investigate this income table of the people of Chang'an.

"According to you, this data is indeed accurate, but why didn't you report it to me sooner?" His Majesty Li Er sorted it out according to Xiao Li's train of thought and found that his statistical method could indeed be regarded as the most accurate statistical method.

"Father, this statistical method is only applicable to Chang'an, other regions are mainly based on agriculture, as long as the statistics of how much grain is collected each year, the income of the people can be basically determined, and there is no need to count in this way."

"There is only Chang'an, because there are too many new things during this time, which provides a large number of urban people with job opportunities, and it is impossible to accurately estimate the income of the people based on agricultural taxes alone."

Li Chengqian had something to say, saying that half of it was left and half of it was left, and he also made a comparison between Chang'an City and other regions.

"What do you mean? How are you going to do it? "His Majesty Li Er is familiar with Li Chengqian's character and knows that he must have a plan when he says this.

"Father, we should spread some things, and let the money in the hands of the people flow, only in this way can we increase taxes, and only in this way can money become money, not a pile of buried copper."

Li Chengqian was a little hesitant, not knowing how to raise the issue of the bank with the old man, after all, the old man had already vetoed this matter last time. So he can only talk in circles, repeatedly emphasizing the importance of consumption.

"I think you're a thief, and you're still thinking about your bank, right?" As the saying goes, knowing a son is better than a father, and Lao Li, who is familiar with Xiao Li's character, saw through his tricks almost instantly.

"Father, it's not that the son of a thief is not dead." Li Chengqian shook his head: "You also saw the treasury of Erchen's mansion just now, those copper coins that have been piled up must have a place to go, we can't pile them up there and watch, we must let them play the greatest role." ”

"So Erchen thinks that we can lend some of this money to the people, so that they can have the capital to get some of their own businesses or workshops, and at the same time, we can also support them and give them some policies, so that the money will work, and we will spend a lot of money to do several things."

When Comrade Xiao Li said this, he got up from his chair, leaned on the table in front of the old man, picked up a pen from the table, found a piece of white paper, and drew several circles of three flats and four circles on it, as well as a box.

Then, under the twitching of the old man's eyes, he smiled, pointed to the largest circle and said: "Father, if this is the money in the prince's treasury, these money are used to build the railway." ”

"Hmm!" If it weren't for Li Chengqian's curiosity, what His Majesty Li Er wanted to do most now was to give him a beating.

is a good prince, he actually writes the words like a chicken planer, and he can't draw a picture clearly, the circle is not round, the square is not square, which makes people have a headache to look at.

Li Chengqian also knew that there was a problem with the picture he drawn, so he didn't give the old man a chance to speak at all, and said very quickly: "This box represents the bank, and these small circles represent the people's money bags, and now the ministers are depositing the money in the bank...... " While saying, Comrade Li drew an arrow and connected the big circle with the box.

"Then we lend the money from the bank to the people......" Continue to draw arrows, from the box to the small circle.

"When people have money in their hands, they need to buy things, and if we support people to grow winter vegetables, then what they need is glass, so the money flows into the glass mill." Another arrow.

"And the glass mill is our own business, and we will put the money back into the bank again." Arrows again.

"Father, please see ......" Li Chengqian reversed the direction of the messy paper he had drawn: "There is not less money in the bank, but there is an extra glass greenhouse in the hands of the people, and we will use the money to buy steel and pay the people wages." ”

"The money for buying steel will go into my uncle's hands, and my uncle will still deposit the money in the bank again; The money given to the people will be consumed by the people, and they will be used to buy daily necessities, food, and use, so that the money will reach the hands of the merchants......"

Li Chengqian gave an example, and continued to draw on the paper until a piece of white paper was painted as black as ink by him, and he couldn't see what was on it at all, and then he stopped and looked up at Lao Li: "Father, do you understand?" ”

As a result, the old man's words made Xiao Li completely collapse: "I understand, after talking for a long time, you kid just want to embezzle public funds, right?" There's too much money in the treasury, and it's a toss to change the law, right? ”nt
