Chapter 603: Hongnong Change Bazaar
When Li Longji heard the answers of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, it immediately became clear that what he was thinking was wrong, and the profits made by Xiaobei's amusement park project were definitely very high, and the proportion was high.
Otherwise, the two of them admitted it just now, and now this situation is that they didn't say it right, and they didn't want to directly deny their words, so they gave such an answer.
"I don't believe it, I can't think of it, everyone continues to think about it, it's nothing more than a matter of money." Li Longji said angrily, and thought hard again, looking very serious.
The others also thought together, no one bothered Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
Li Longji didn't know how much loss he had brought to the generals after he arrived in Wang Juan's room.
The generals all thought that the emperor was talking to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, so the two of them would definitely not be able to put their minds on the battle, so they had a little schadenfreude in their hearts.
But it was this kind of thinking that also made them slack off, especially the people in charge of the specific battalions and teams below, who had nothing to do, only the brigade that went ashore was relatively busy, but still did not find the enemy.
This state of not being able to get nervous makes them react a little slower in the face of unexpected things.
Just in the Hibiscus Garden, when all the people were thinking about their own affairs and busy with their own arrangements, Xiaobei and the others had already arrived at Old Willow Village.
Liu Feifei's train to Hongnong came and went, and when she saw Xiaobei Jiuren, Liu Feifei, who had been worried about her life these days, was much more relieved.
She didn't believe that in Datang, there were still officials who could compete with Xiaobei and them, Xiaobei got off the train and first gave Liu Feifei a hug, but she was short and could only wrap Liu Feifei above her waist, not her shoulders.
"Sister Feifei, don't worry, my brother has already arranged for someone to protect him, it is estimated that it is almost done now, we plan to let him out, as long as he stays in it and does not suffer hardship and does not suffer.
Then when I go over, I want to see how the local officials in Jiangzhou explain to me, they should be very honest, but who let the economy develop too fast, and they all began to make small calculations. ”
Xiaobei knew what Liu Feifei cared about most, so as soon as they met, she said what Liu Feifei wanted to hear the most.
Sure enough, Liu Feifei showed a sweet smile on her face, nodded, and said, "Since you said it's okay, then it's absolutely fine, I believe that the people in your family over there can protect my good brother, let's go, there are more people from your family this time." ”
"My mother is here, so there are more people who protect and serve, I will introduce you, come, follow me." Xiaobei took Liu Feifei's hand and dragged her to the side of the train, and waited for a while, her mother and Xiaoyuan's mother came down, and as soon as they came, Zhang Wang's family said Xiaobei.
"Run for what? Before the guards finished, you ran down, what if something happened? ”
"Impossible, how could something happen, mother, and auntie, let me introduce to you, this is Liu Feifei from Old Willow Village, it was her brother who went to another place to help us sell things, and was caught by the yamen there, Sister Feifei, this is my mother, this is my aunt, and it is Xiaoyuan's mother."
Xiaobei did not answer what her mother just said, but began to introduce them to both sides.
Liu Feifei naturally got the good treatment she deserved, she was pulled by the two elders to ask this and that, and she got a lot of gifts, she couldn't hold it at all, so she had to let the family continue to help her first, and the group walked towards the old willow village.
When passing through the county seat of Hongnong County, Xiaobei also made a comparison and found that the current county seat is better than before, especially the amusement park that wants to compensate them is under construction.
She is looking forward to building it soon, and when the time comes, she will play first.
Then Becky got together with eight other people and came up with a way to exchange half of the profits for taxes.
Now they have almost arrived at the old willow village, and the road under their feet is better than the last time they came, I don't know how many times, mainly because there was water here when they came last time, and some places have to wade through the water to pass.
Now they have all been replaced with concrete roads.
"Sister Feifei, how is life in the village now?" Xiaobei sat in the car, looking at the scenery outside that was receding a little backwards, and asked Liu Feifei in front of her.
"Life is much better than before, since the last time I went to Hongnong to help weave baskets or something, our village has become famous, many rich people, if they want to buy baskets, they name the baskets in our old willow village, saying that they are strong and durable.
You also know that willow trees can grow even if they are a wicker root and inserted in the ground, so we made up a lot of various things, not only Hongnong's people bought them, but we piled them together and sent them by train once, and they happened to be sent to Luoyang.
Our house has changed, it's no longer the low, unsturdy mud house you saw last time, and now we're using bricks and cement, and we're looking for someone to build it.
When the people of Zhengzheng Construction saw that it was our village, they didn't charge for manual fees, but just ate the food we cooked, and we made a lot of delicious food for them. ”
Liu Feifei said while comparing the paintings, looking very excited, and the smile on her face was not less.
Xiaobei nodded violently when he heard this, and he was also happy: "That's great, isn't it a two-story building?" Since it is a Zheng Zheng building to repair, I will definitely propose to build a two-story building for your family. ”
"Yes, yes, two floors, I live on the upper floor, stand on it and see far away, and now on my side, we don't have to go outside to buy things by ourselves, there are people who transport things to the side of the bridge, waiting for us to buy there."
Liu Feifei also nodded, and then talked about all kinds of interesting things.
Xiaobei listened carefully and learned about the changes here from Liu Feifei.
First of all, the old willow village did not suffer any losses when it was affected by the disaster, and made a lot of money by helping to work in the past, and at the same time, it also helped the willow weaving trade in the village to make a reputation.
As a result, their willow weaving made more money, and now unless they directly organize a train to transport a cartload of boxes, they simply don't take it to other places to sell it.
It is someone else who buys it, and then sells it elsewhere for money, if you want to say this willow weaving, the old willow village is really good, but it is not so much that many people are willing to buy it.
People can make it up themselves, even if it doesn't look so beautiful on the outside, as long as it can be used, how gorgeous does the dung basket need to be?
The reason why more people are willing to buy willow weaving in the old willow village is because they saved people's lives when they helped Hongnong rebuild it at that time.
It was a man who went up to the top of the third floor of a restaurant, worked there, and suddenly accidentally fell from it, and the moment he fell, he grabbed a wicker basket.
As a result, he put the basket under his body, and he didn't do anything except sweat with fright, and there was not a single small wound.
Then they went to look at the basket, and the basket had only changed its shape slightly, and it had returned to its original shape with the pedals, and the wicker had not broken off.
Everyone took turns to look at the basket, and found that the wicker used to weave the basket was very tough, very finely braided, and the outside was very smooth, and there were no burrs at all.
This is really a good basket, otherwise how could it save people's lives, everyone asks, who made the basket? After asking, I found out that it was someone from Old Willow Village who provided it.
From that moment on, the willow weaving of the old willow village became famous, with good materials, good workmanship, and good luck.
In this way, as long as there are people around who want to buy a basket and basket, etc., they will choose the products of Old Willow Village.
If there is demand, there will naturally be production, and the people of the old willow village are basically busy every day, busy making all kinds of things, and some businessmen will come over, waiting for the people of the old willow village to bring over the things to be sold on the side of the bridge, and they will buy them directly with money.
There are many merchants who come, but the number of products in the village is limited, so there are many merchants waiting, but there are few that can actually be bought.
As soon as a clever businessman saw this, he simply stopped collecting willow weaving, and found a few people as his companions, and began to sell soup cakes on this side of the bridge, that is, noodles, wontons, etc., and the noodles were bought directly in the old willow village, and there were cucumber shreds sprinkled on it, and other things, which were also bought in the village.
There is a kind of village of its own, which makes the merchant's business very good.
When other merchants saw it, they also thought of a way, not only to buy things from the old willow village, but also to transport things that were not available in the village from outside, and when the people in the village came out to sell and play with willow weaving, they would naturally take a look at other things.
So in the winter, a market appeared outside the old willow village, and now that spring comes, the market becomes more prosperous.
Xiaobei and the nine people were very happy to hear it, as long as the village was good, it was the happiness in their hearts, but the two adults, their mother, heard many things from it, and recalled the things of 'a long time' ago.
At that time, although the two Zhuangzi of King Zhang could still live normally, they were definitely not very good, compared with the current one, it was really a world of difference.
Later, it was Xiaobao and Juan Juan, who helped develop little by little, first to create a market, and then to keep making things out, all kinds of good things.
Up to now, Sanshui County is no different from his own family, and he can find a random family in Zhuangzi and put it in a normal place, all of which are local wealthy families.
"Whether life in a place is good or not, just look at whether there is a market, and what is sold in the market, Xiaobei, you should let the officials of various places often look at the bazaars in the places under their control.
Only from the bazaars can we know what the local people lack, what their living habits are, etc., instead of checking the various accounts that come up, and the catalogue of taxes, because many of the bazaars are organized by themselves and do not collect taxes. ”
Xiaobei's mother, Zhang Wangshi, thought about the past and the situation to be seen now, analyzed it, and said to Xiaobei.
Xiao Bei nodded again and again: "That is, don't sit idle in the yamen all day long, how good it is to go out for a walk, the real magistrate should be when he sees the land, he is a qualified farmer, when he sees the sale, he is a qualified businessman, when he sees tools, even if he is not required to make them, he must at least know the truth of tool making and use."
In this way, he can really be a good parent official for the people, instead of staying in the yamen every day, I decided, go back to the emperor's uncle to discuss, and let the emperor's uncle tell the official department about the audit.
Don't just pay attention to the local officials in a certain place and how much tax they have paid this year, because sometimes, tax exemption is the most appropriate thing to give the people a chance to develop their savings.
Exempt them from taxes for two years, maybe the amount of local finances in the past two years has been less, which makes people look bad, but after two years, the people use this tax-free money to buy good tools, or do business, and develop, then the area will naturally have money. ”
Zhang Wangshi listened to his daughter's analysis so thoroughly, and the smile on his face was even bigger, other people's children, who can understand so much at such a young age? Except for Xiaobao and Juan Juan, it seems that they have never seen each other.
"Xiaoyuan, you can also talk about it." Xiaoyuan's mother saw that Xiaobei said well, and immediately let her son show off.
Xiaoyuan was very helpless: "What is there to say about this, isn't it that some officials always want to be promoted, for example, Sanshui County, this year's financial revenue has doubled, so when the officials are evaluated, they will give him a superior, and he will be promoted."
So the second official who came to Sanshui County saw that it was so easy to be promoted, well, he began to sell the original things in the county, for example, there was a piece of land, he sold it cheaply, the original land was worth 10,000 yuan, and he sold it for 5,000 yuan.
Then he waited, and when it was about to be evaluated, he made a random name and turned 2,000 guan into local financial revenue, but the land was not written, but a special assessment was made, and a good piece of land was turned into a waste land, and the account said that it was sold for 1,000 yuan.
As a result, the Ministry of Officials assessed that this year's Sanshui County's fiscal revenue has increased again, and the new county decree has also been raised.
In fact, every official is promoted, it will cause great harm to the people of Sanshui County, and when one day the people can't bear it, then Sanshui County will no longer be in the upper county, but will fall to the point of the lower county. ”
"Hmmm! Yes, my mother sounds a little reasonable, then you will tell Your Majesty that in the future, it is not to assess the financial revenue of that place, but to include the degree of local resource consumption, which official consumes the least local resources and gets more income, which can be rated as the first. ”
Xiaoyuan's mother touched Xiaoyuan's head, praised it, and analyzed it.
Liu Feifei nodded her head and said: "That's it, because of this year's flood, Hongnong County has been exempted from taxes for two years, my father said, in the past two years, we can save a lot, and then use it to fill in the depression in front."
In this way, we have more land to plant willow trees, and when the willow trees grow, the forest will be valuable, and my father is also going to set up a school in the village, a willow weaving school, to teach people who are willing to come to learn willow weaving.
At the same time, the people of the village can continue to think about how to make wicker more beautiful, so that wicker weaving is not only a tool that can be used, but also a ....... ........ ”
"Be art, aren't you? In that case, it is estimated that the willow weaving in your old willow village can become a pillar industry in Hongnong. ”
Xiaobei took over and said.
"yes." Liu Feifei glanced at the willow trees on the side of the road outside, smiled happily, and said, "That's it, but if we don't waive the tax for two years, we have to borrow money, and we need everyone in a village to pool the money they earn to buy that large depression."
That's what you just said, don't always stare at the little profit in front of you, give the people a time to accumulate, and then the people will return more taxes to the government.
Just like a chicken laying eggs, staring at the immediate interests is to eat eggs directly, in order to keep eggs to hatch chicks in the future, and when there are more chickens, there will naturally be more eggs. ”
"Ah, what Sister Feifei said is so good, I want to say to the emperor's uncle, please give you credit, let's bear with it first, eat less eggs, raise more chickens, the emperor's uncle has so much money, what are you doing in the money bank, it's better to take it out and raise chickens, and eat more eggs in the future."
Xiaobei's eyes were bright, and she couldn't wait to fly back to the capital immediately, and tell the emperor's uncle in person what she had seen and heard along the way today.
Liu Feifei was very embarrassed by Xiao Bei's praise, her face was slightly red, and she lowered her head and whispered: "It's just chatting with you, how can there be any credit." ”
"Yes, chatting is not the same as chatting, we can chat, we can directly and absolutely many important things in Datang, because I can find the emperor's uncle, as long as I say a reason, the emperor's uncle will adopt it, I want to think about it, let the emperor's uncle also give you an official."
First seal a loose official, then you learn more, and then get you a real power official, otherwise you will be given a position of real power at the beginning, you will do something wrong, and it will cause losses.
Yes, just do it, anyway, Uncle Emperor has a lot of officials in his hands. ”
When Xiaobei was talking, he decided on Liu Feifei's official position, as for what it was, how many products, Xiaobei didn't know it now, and he had to wait until he saw the emperor's uncle to ask clearly.
Liu Feifei was startled, and at the same time couldn't believe that she was an official? I was still a child, and I became nervous: "I, I won't be an official, I don't know anything, Xiaobei, I'm afraid, don't let me be, okay." ”
"I won't be able to learn, it's not how difficult, others can be, we can be too, I estimate that some officials are not as good as you, one by one only knows how to take the imperial examination, and when you really do practical things, you will be confused, all handed over to others, such an official, anyone can be it, you listen to me right, I really won't, I will teach you, I won't ask my brothers and sisters."
Becky continued to persuade.
Liu Feifei didn't refuse again this time, but her eyes were wide open, but her gaze was very wandering, and when she watched the same thing outside move in the opposite direction with the car, she fantasized about what she would do when she became an official in the future.
It wasn't until she heard all kinds of noisy sounds coming from the market in front of the old willow village from a distance that Liu Feifei woke up from her fantasy, smiled and said:
"If I become an official, I will repair the market first, at least the drainage ditch must be repaired, and I can't just pour water on the ground, yes, just do such a small thing first, and I won't do a big thing."
