Chapter 61: On the Importance of Collecting Money
"What can be done by Master Xue?"
Ma Sanbao, Lady Liu, and Han Jin, the three of them asked almost in unison.
After asking, they looked at each other, and they all looked at Xue Lang, waiting for his answer, only Her Royal Highness the princess was still as immobile as a mountain, and she was still drinking her tea with elegant movements.
In other words, Her Royal Highness the princess has a true love for eating tea, and she always spends most of her ten days making tea, no wonder the maids who come out of her courtyard will make tea nine times out of ten.
"Master Xue."
Female Officer Liu was anxious and urged Xue Lang.
Xue Lang hurriedly pulled back his crooked thoughts, and said directly: "Our craftsmen in Weizeguan are limited, since the promotion plan was determined, I began to order the craftsmen to work overtime to make the koji...... Cough, the alien plow, and even recruit nearby craftsmen who can pass the craft to join, everyone rushed to work day and night, overtime, the craftsmen almost ate and lived in the shed, continuous fighting, even the face of the family was not available, so tired that they were about to lose shape, and the children couldn't recognize their father when they went home. ”
The three of them looked at each other, and Ma Sanbao asked, "Master Xue, what does this have to do with the problem?" ”
However, Her Royal Highness the princess obviously understood, took a sip of tea safely, and said safely: "Don't worry, listen to Youyang." ”
Xue Lang said: "The craftsmen are already working so hard, and if they force people to work overtime, I am afraid that they will be tired and killed!" Therefore, the inventory is limited, and since there is an objection to the money, then wait for the back. ”
Now everyone understands! In short, drag!
That's a bit of a bad idea!
Han Jin said: "Plough making is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and Wei Zeguan should provide samples for all parties for free, why make a profit?" ”
Is this playing the blame person?
It means that the solution works, but the rhetoric can't be so straightforward!
Xue Lang understands in seconds!
So, Xue Lang said: "The craftsmen and materials we invest always cost money, right?" Is there anything in the world that wants a horse to run and not give it grass? I can't say anything about it! Of course, if you still feel that you have objections, as the saying goes, the more you argue, the clearer the reasoning becomes, we can sit down and have a good debate. However, because there are too many people who need to be plowed, and the affairs are busy, we take a moment every day to argue, okay? When to make it clear, when to say it! ”
"Poof......
This is Lady Liu's direct laughter!
Han Jin also smiled, but he still dutifully played the blame: "You are delaying time for the sake of money, delaying spring ploughing, and using the national economy and people's livelihood as a child's play!" ”
Xue Lang gave a thumbs up with admiration on his face: "Your Excellency is high-spirited, Xue admires!" However, dare I ask Your Excellency, do you have money in and out of your house? ”
Han Jin said: "Food, clothing, housing and transportation all need to be spent, so naturally you have to have money." But what does this have to do with the plow? ”
Xue Lang's face was full of seriousness: "The relationship is big!" ”
At this time, not only Han Jin, but even Her Royal Highness the Princess showed an interested look. Xue Lang said: "According to Your Excellency's theory, everything that is related to the national economy and people's livelihood should be free, so it is the way of benevolence and righteousness, right?" ”
Han Jin naturally nodded: "Yes!" ”
Xue Lang said: "That's good! So, may I ask, did these things fall from the sky or did they conjure up out of thin air? ”
"It's all made by craftsmen."
"Now that you know, it's easy to say! The materials used to make the plow, wood, iron, and the craftsmen who make the plough all cost money, right? Where does the money come from? It was paid for by Her Royal Highness the Princess! Her Royal Highness the princess's house in the input, all have a fixed number, move everyone's clothes, shoes and socks next year to make plows, to promote, next year everyone will have no clothes and shoes to wear, summer is fine, what to do in winter? If someone freezes to death because of this, Your Excellency, you are killing you! Or is it that, in the eyes of Your Excellency, the lives of the people under your rule are human lives, and the lives of the people in the princess's mansion are not lives? Your Excellency, double standards are not the work of a gentleman! ”
Han Jin was dumbfounded, he couldn't react for a while, how could it be fatal to provide a plow for free?
Lady Liu continued: "Such a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, you can ask the court and the saint for support and subsidies!" ”
Xue Lang was directly shocked: "Wow, Your Excellency, you are not only killing people, this is shaking the country!" ”
"Poof!"
Ma Sanbao and Han Jin sprayed together!
Xue Lang tried his best to make a solemn and solemn expression, and said: "There is a fixed number of inputs in the princess's mansion, and there is also a fixed number of inputs in a country, almost all of which rely on taxes. Taxes cover the vast majority of the country's expenditures. For example, the officials' salaries, military salaries, and the repair of the yamen of various government offices, etc. Take the most fundamental farming as an example, where there is spare energy, the government also provides cattle. From the calf to the time when a cow can go to the field, the manpower and financial resources spent on it are all from the government. Where did all this money come from? Or taxes! ”
Xue Lang paused, emphasizing the word "tax". Wan continued: "If it is decided at the beginning today, the tax will be low, but the country still has to do what it does. A plough requires materials that can be taken from nature, but what about the manpower involved? Logging, mining, iron smelting, ploughmaking, etc., each process requires manpower, these people rely on their crafts to eat, to support their families, the state to pay taxes, maybe to use the money that may be used for river work and water conservancy, may be used to pay the money of officials! If you let the craftsmen do the daywork......"
Xue Lang's face was fake and solemn: "Your Excellency, to put it mildly, what kind of grudge do you have with the craftsman?" I want to starve to death so much! In the big picture, if there is a problem with river engineering and water conservancy, if the officials do not have a good fortune...... Ah, I don't dare to think about it anymore, does Your Excellency want me to lose the Tang Dynasty? As an official of the Tang Dynasty but the country of the Tang Dynasty is going to die, I have to doubt Your Excellency's identity as a Tang person! Come, let's find Dali Temple to check your identity and origin. ”
"Ahem!"
Now even Her Royal Highness the princess choked!
Female official Bai Xue Lang glanced at it and reminded: "Master Xue, it is the responsibility of Zongzheng Temple to check the bloodline and identity of the clan, and Dali Temple is only in charge of prisons. ”
Xue Lang was slightly embarrassed, but he still expressed his satisfaction, this wave of good decoration, you can give eight points, deduct one point from the bug of Dali Temple, and leave a little room for improvement.
Xue Lang pretended not to hear: "If these words can't make the other party sober-minded, and it's not enough to make the other party pay for it quickly, and I think it shouldn't be, then, it's still that sentence, the more the reason is argued, the clearer it is, we can slowly talk about it from the history of ancient times!"
Han Jin hurriedly said, "Enough, enough!" I can't imagine that from a free plow, Master Xue can tell such a terrifying truth? Lord Xue's eloquence was admired by Han. ”
Xue Lang said embarrassedly: "Prize, prize!" Although some of the words are purely frightening, silver money is the product of the development of productive forces to a certain extent and human needs, and the production of silver money has promoted socio-economic and political development, and the correlation between them can be written in thousands of volumes. The flower grower has been studied by everyone, and I have read it roughly, so it is not alarmist. ”
"Shhh
In this era of scarce and poor books, the statement of thousands of volumes shocked everyone.
Even Her Royal Highness the princess who was deep in the city government exclaimed: "There are thousands of books in just one currency, so you don't know how many books you have read?" ”
Xue Lang calmly pretended to be forced to show off the superiority of modern people: "There is no reading of more than 10,000 volumes, there should be reading more than 10,000 volumes." ”
The crowd looked up to the mountains.
