In the Wude Palace, the atmosphere was suddenly a little sad. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Time has always been the most ruthless and just force in this world.

Even if he is the emperor of all times, he cannot escape the sorrow of twilight.

Jia Huan glanced at Emperor Longzheng's much grayer hair, and suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty, this is not your style.

Where is this?

Do you really think this is a prosperous age?

Nowadays, the people are barely able to eat, and the court barely has a little money to spare.

At best, this is a mix of food and clothing, and it is still far from the prosperous era!

You still have a long way to go to become an emperor of the ages.

Your Majesty, you have to work harder! ”

"Jia Huan!"

Seeing that Emperor Long Zheng's face changed, Ying Xiang hurriedly cheered.

Emperor Longzheng waved his hand to stop Ying Xiang, he looked at Jia Huan and said, "Jia Huan, although I am extremely unwilling, I still have to admit that I am old.

I will not follow the example of Emperor Qin and Han Wu, seek immortals and Tao, and try to live forever.

When you are old, you have to serve the old.

Now the situation in the country and the dynasty is stable, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, with houses and food.

The development of your bank is beyond my expectations, and I believe that as long as you are there, the court will no longer have to worry about the lack of silver.

Isn't that a prosperous age?

Don't try to inspire me, I am old, but I don't need the mercy of others. ”

Jia Huan snorted and said, "Your Majesty, you think too much, how can the minister be qualified to pity Your Majesty?" The minister thinks that he is more pitiful than you, who will pity the minister?

The minister's meaning is not this, and he will not do this to His Majesty. ”

"And what do you mean?"

Emperor Long Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked.

Jia Huan said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has hardly left Qiongzhou Island in the past year, and he rarely asks about the bank.

But the minister has not been idle and stubborn.

The ministers would often look at the charts and overseas places, and it would be an afternoon to look at them. ”

Hearing Jia Huan say this, a wave flashed in Emperor Longzheng's fine eyes.

From one of the most confidential inside lines of the Black Ice Table, he had already received the news.

He was also very puzzled, what was Jia Huan looking at?

Later, it wasn't until he heard that Jia Huan wanted to go to sea that he suddenly realized that Jia Huan had been looking for a way back, and he wanted to follow Fan Li and go boating to avoid trouble.

This is the reason why he issued twelve gold medals in a row, and even the prince who was close to Jia Huan and the head of Daming Palace were sent together to recruit Jia Huan back to Beijing.

didn't expect that Jia Huan would even say this matter.

He wanted to hear what Jia Huan wanted to do......

As the bank's ocean-going merchant ships continued to expand the scope of their southward and westward journeys, he found that the world was far bigger than the ancestors had imagined.

In this world, there is by no means only Great Qin.

To the north there is Eros, to the east there is Silla Fuso, and to the south there is a huge island, even larger than Daqin.

To the west, there are countless foreign countries.

The world is so big, but the eyes of the Chinese people have never looked out.

I always like to regard myself as the kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, and I only like to stare at this one-third of an acre of land in the country.

At the beginning of each new dynasty, the war is over, the population is withered, and the land is barren.

Recuperate, the population gradually prospered, and then ushered in the so-called prosperous age.

Subsequently, land annexation took place, and more and more landless people were displaced.

After more than 100 years of tug-of-war, there were natural disasters and troubled times.

For thousands of years, this has been done repeatedly.

The dynasties of the past dynasties were also sad to pass the three-hundred-year limit.

The minister often looked at the map of the world, and thought, why can't we Daqin break this shackle curse?

Why don't we look farther, be open-minded, and be a little more open-minded.

Don't think about fighting this and that in the nest all day long, fighting back and forth is just internal friction.

Why don't you put your mind on the struggle outside?

The Chinese people are so good at fighting, if they fight with outsiders, they can fight back more wealth and some land.

Let every person in the country have land to plant and something to do.

Even in a year of natural disasters, the people can survive smoothly by relying on their own storage.

In this way, will the world be in chaos again? ”

Emperor Long Zheng's face was moved, he looked at Jia Huan, and said in a deep voice: "Jia Huan, you mean that you want to invade foreign countries in order to support the people of Great Qin?"

You know, warlike will die!

Qianming was miserable because of an Annan, and half of the country was dragged down.

How could the war end be so easy to start? ”

Jia Huan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why did you choose war?" War is the lowest method of use, and it will never be used unless it is absolutely necessary. ”

Ying Xiang's eyes lit up on the side, and he said, "What do you mean, is it business?" ”

Jia Huan nodded and said, "That's right, but doing business is too uncivilized, it should be said that it is trading with other countries!" ”

Ying Xiang has a good temper, and he is despised by an illiterate, but he is not annoyed, and he smiles.

Under the majestic eyes of Emperor Longzheng, Jia Huan laughed twice and continued: "A few years ago, the floods in Jiangnan caused a shortage of rice in Jiangnan, and the people were not able to make a living.

Isn't it just that we relied on the grain bought from Annam, Siam and other countries to survive the disaster year?

The minister thinks that it is not only food.

Whatever I lack in Daqin can be obtained from abroad.

Interests do not necessarily have to be obtained by aggression and by killing, burning, and looting.

We can use our Daqin's commercial goods to exchange them for their commercial goods.

For example, gemstones, spices, wood, grain, iron ore......

Whatever I lack, what I have, can be exchanged! ”

"What if someone else doesn't give it?"

Emperor Long Zheng's eyes were extremely bright, and he asked in an excited voice.

Jia Huan's face suddenly turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "When we go to do business, we are not to oppress them, but to buy and sell fairly.

But if they refuse, let us send to reason with their monarch.

Or concessions, or inducements, it's okay.

If their monarch is unreasonable, or unrecognizable, insatiable, and greedy, then he is no longer fit to be a monarch.

We can support their domestic sensible people and be monarchs. ”

"Shhh

Everyone gasped again, Emperor Long Zheng looked at Jia Huan with a strange face, and said in an unkind tone: "Just because people don't do business with you, you make bad moves and want to destroy people's national unity?" ”

Maybe it's a kind of thing, the rabbit is dead and the fox is sad, and Emperor Longzheng feels uncomfortable no matter how he listens to it.

Jia Huan said innocently: "Your Majesty, is this the point?" ”

Seeing that Emperor Long Zheng's eyes were getting more and more unkind, Jia Huan hurriedly smiled and said, "The point is, we are reasonable people.

When we encounter a faint king, it is unreasonable, so we have to give up our interests? ”

Emperor Long Zheng snorted, displeased, but also knew the seriousness of the matter, and asked: "If it is really like what you said, both countries are beneficial, how can they refuse to cooperate?"

Furthermore, what if they become strong and have thoughts that they shouldn't have? ”

Jia Huan said with a smile: "Therefore, in order to ensure that our Daqin always occupies an advantageous position, we must continue to innovate the skills of craftsmen and constantly bring forth the new!"

So that in the transaction, we guarantee a dominant position.

In fact, this is inevitable, and from the current point of view, just with the current level of our Daqin, it is no problem to eat dividends for another hundred years!

Your Majesty, think about it, when our commercial goods worth ten taels are exchanged for commercial goods worth a thousand taels from foreign countries, all kinds of scarce commercial goods in Daqin will be continuously transported into Daqin.

Then the people of Daqin can rely on hard work, they can exchange for corresponding remuneration and wealth, and their living standards continue to improve.

There is no need to be like the present or the past, you can only rely on the limited land to dig for food, and you can't leave anything behind after all year of hard work.

And the imperial court can also collect a generous tax burden in this trade.

When Daqin's military was not only stationed at home to guard against foreign enemy rebellions, but took the initiative to attack and escort Daqin's eternal prosperity.

Wherever the people of Great Qin go, there are Great Qin soldiers to protect them!

This is the highest mission of a soldier!

Your Majesty, you are no longer just the emperor of Great Qin.

It's not like the previous dynasty, when hundreds of Tusi chiefs were found, they were called Wanbang Dynasty.

At the right time, the heads of all the nations of the world, including Siam, Annam, Fuso, Silla, and as far away as Europa, will come to see His Majesty.

Because the strength of Great Qin is not only facing the people in the country, but coercing the world, the real king of the world!

At that time, even if all the Shilin Confucians who gave birth to sons are turtles will scold you, but the descendants of future generations, above the green history, will definitely respect you as the first emperor of the ages and the respect of the world!

At that time, it will be the real Great Qin Dynasty, Your Majesty, you will be the real Emperor of the Ages!! ”

When Emperor Longzheng heard this, red light was faintly visible on the black face, and because of the sorrow of the hero's twilight, he had long disappeared.

He looked at Jia Huan carefully and said in a deep voice: "These, you came up with on that broken island?" ”

Jia Huan snorted, muttered twice That island is much stronger than yours, and then under the threatening gaze of Emperor Longzheng, he said honestly: "Yes, I think that since the bank sea trade has proved that this road is feasible, and the profits are amazing."

Then, the eyes of the imperial court should be on it.

When the profits of the sea trade are ten times greater, His Majesty can try to halve or even reduce the agricultural tax completely.

By then, hey, hey!

That's why the minister thought that when the monsoon arrived, he would go overseas to see it, and if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he would always feel uneasy.

The ministers thought hard, and always wanted to make Daqin much stronger.

As a result, when I returned to Beijing, I encountered these things like dogskins......

I don't think about how to grow stronger, how to enrich the people, just guard against this and that, and act like a sour and rotten air in my bones.

If you really follow that set, it will be finished sooner or later! ”

"Fart! You damn bastard! Which one are you scolding? ”

Emperor Long Zheng was really annoyed and angry this time, Fang Cai blushed with excitement, but this time he blushed with shame.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit in his heart that in terms of open-mindedness and vision, he couldn't compare to this little scoundrel......

Just thinking like this, an irrepressible impulse suddenly welled up in his heart, and he looked at Jia Huan, who was low-browed and obedient, and blurted out: "Hate the sky and be unfair, so that you will not be my son......"

"Your Majesty!"

On the side, Empress Dong and Ying Xiang were startled and hurriedly called.

How can this be said nonsense?

If Jia Huan is given birth to thoughts that he shouldn't have, isn't it just for nothing?

On the side, Ying Ri burst into tears on the spot, and sobbed: "Father, it's the sons and daughters who are incompetent and can't solve their father's worries." ”

Emperor Longzheng regretted it when he came back to his senses, and when he looked at Ying Day's appearance again, he didn't know what to say.

Jia Huan laughed and said, "Your Majesty, forgive the ministers for being presumptuous, your idea is really wrong. ”

When Emperor Longzheng heard this, his face darkened, and he shouted: "Do you want you to be my son?" Flatter yourself! ”

But anyone can see the regret in his eyes that has not been dissipated.

A pair of thin eyes, just staring at Jia Huan.

Jia Huan raised the teacup, drank it all, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this Great Qin is not only Your Majesty's, nor is it the surname of the Qin Heavenly Family.

It was with this idea that the emperor had to make concessions to the Manchu courtiers from time to time.

Because even His Majesty thinks that they are helping the emperor govern the country.

So, in the face of some of their blatant greed. Corrupt and corrupt behavior, only to endure and endure.

No, that's not right.

The rivers and mountains of Great Qin are not only His Majesty's, but also everyone in Great Qin.

Only by cultivating the people's sense of belonging, pride, and nationality to Daqin!

Only by cultivating their master's hearts as the masters of Great Qin.

Let each and every one of them truly care for this kingdom!

In this way, Daqin is the real country that is not easy for eternity.

Even if you encounter difficulties and dangers for a while, there will always be things of loyalty and righteousness, and you will help the king!

That's what the minister thinks, and that's what he does.

So, even if you are not your son, what can you do?

Since the lord of the courtier, the minister has admitted that everything he has done is worthy of his loyalty.

Everything the minister did was to strengthen the country and the society of my Great Qin.

It's not because of whose son the minister is, it's just because the minister is the heir of Great Qin and is related to the country.

The minister is the old Qin man in Guanzhong, and he is willing to fight to the death for the country! ”

"Good!!"

Emperor Longzheng, Empress Dong and Ying Xiang all praised together.

Ying Tian pouted, he was really unwilling to be completely compared to scum, so he plucked up his courage and said: "Jia Huan, don't coax my father."

What you say sounds good, are you willing to do your best? You are lazy every day on Qiongzhou Island. ”

Emperor Longzheng was originally extremely displeased, but when he heard the words of Ying Day, he was stunned again, and turned his head to look at Jia Huan.

Jia Huan saw that the three bigwigs looked at each other, he smiled and said, "His Royal Highness doesn't understand anything, people like Chen use their brains more than their hands."

Coming up with a plan, a policy, and a route is already very remarkable.

Really let the minister run errands, then unyielding? ”

Emperor Longzheng gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean, do you want me to run errands?" ”

Jia Huan laughed twice and said, "Doesn't Your Majesty have a cabinet?" There is a cabinet for literature, and there is a cabinet for military aircraft.

Wouldn't it be better to leave it to them? ”

Emperor Long Zheng sneered: "What do you know? Are you like you to be the shopkeeper, and you don't mess up?

But...... You can't be completely idle.

The way of economy, there is no one more than you in the government and the opposition.

In this regard, you have to keep an eye on me. ”

Jia Huan said: "There is no problem with this, it is almost enough for the bank to keep an eye open."

Your Majesty, three years have passed, and it is time for the commercial tax to be popularized.

Danchen heard that there was another trend in the DPRK and China, and he hoped to postpone it for another three years.

This force must be vigorously suppressed.

The minister hopes that Hei Bingtai can participate in the Department of Commercial Taxation, tax is the foundation of the national treasury, and any delay in paying taxes is no different from treason.

Even if a farmer has to pay taxes for planting a few acres of land, then there is no reason for a scholar to evade taxes when he runs a business. ”

When Emperor Long Zheng heard this, his brows were furrowed, his face was solemn, and after looking at Ying Xiang, he nodded slowly and said, "Okay, it should be so." ”

Ying Xiang also frowned and said, "Let the Black Ice Platform participate in it, isn't it...... A little too much? The court must have been full of backlash. ”

Jia Huan waved his hand and said: "It's not an exaggeration, the imperial court can't blindly be kind to those people, when it comes to national interests, any force must abide by the rules, no one can be an exception."

The Internal Affairs Office and the clan warriors are still paying taxes, how can those scholars be able to delay for three years and delay for another three years?

If you go to court and let them check themselves, it will become a joke in the end.

Just be stricter and use the Black Ice Platform to let them know the determination of the imperial court! ”

Emperor Long Zheng was still quite courageous, "um", and said: "Jia Huan's words are reasonable, and it should be so!" It's about the overall situation of the imperial court, and even I am paying taxes, how can they not pay them? The money that was collected was not a flower. But take it from the people, use it for the people.

Jia Huan, I'm going to hand over the Commercial Tax Department to you.

After the Commercial Tax Department joined the Black Ice Platform of the Son of Heaven's pro-army, it was no longer considered a government affairs department.

Leave it to you, no taboos. ”

Jia Huan was speechless and said, "Your Majesty, what are you ...... Are you afraid that your minister's reputation in Shilin is not bad enough? ”

On the side, Empress Dong and Ying Xiang both laughed.

Emperor Longzheng looked at him and said excitedly: "Why, don't you dare? ”

Jia Huan thought for a while and said, "Dare is daring, it's just ...... Anyway, the minister should be this bad guy. ”

Emperor Long Zheng hummed with satisfaction, and said, "Go back and let Zhao Shidao go to see you, how many people do you need, just talk to him......"

After that, glancing at the night outside the palace, he said again: "It's getting late, don't leave the palace tonight, go to the study with me and Prince Zhongyi, and talk about what you said."

This matter must be well planned.

By the way, call Zhang Tingyu again......"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

How dare Jia Huan go, if there is really one time, then where will he have a peaceful life in the future......

He hurriedly called, "Your Majesty, this ...... The minister is still at the age of growing his body, and he can't stay up all night! ”

"Poof!"

Ying Xiang squirted out a sip of tea, didn't care about losing his manners, pointed at Jia Huan and scolded with a smile: "Jia Huan, you ...... excuse"

Empress Dong also smiled from ear to ear, and a few of the monarchs and ministers were talking about the government, and she didn't say a word except for adding tea to Emperor Longzheng from time to time.

However, it is not boring......

Emperor Longzheng glared at Jia Huan, who looked innocent, viciously, and said, "Then you will live with Ying Tian for a night, and then leave the palace tomorrow." ”

Jia Huan said shyly: "Your Majesty, the minister has been married for more than three years, and he has no heirs yet, so the minister has to go home and work harder......"

"Phew!"

Empress Dong couldn't help but blushed and snorted.

Emperor Long Zheng had a toothache of hatred even more, and scolded: "You worthless bastard!" ”

It can be seen that Jia Huan just lowered his head and smiled, thinking that he was really under pressure in his heart, and Emperor Long Zheng suppressed his anger again, and said, "You don't look at how old you are, what kind of child are you in a hurry to have?"

Win the day is older than you, and now you haven't even made a kiss.

Wouldn't it be a joke if you brought a dozen children? ”

Jia Huan sighed and said, "Your Majesty can't be compared like this, you win the day and the ugly, and the minister is much more handsome than him......"

"You fart!"

Ying Sun scolded: "I'm much more talented than you!" I've read more than you! Bah! No culture! I haven't read all four books! ”

In the Manzong room, Ying Day, who had studied in elementary school for nearly fifteen years and had not yet graduated, was able to proudly despise illiteracy for the first time in his life.

Ying Xiang and Empress Dong and Su Peisheng, who was serving behind, had already burst out laughing, and after Emperor Long Zheng gritted his teeth for a long time, he still couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "These two bastards who don't know what to be ashamed of!" ”

He said to Jia Huan again: "Okay, since you go home, then go back."

It's just that you've just drunk a lot of wine, so don't ride a horse.

Su Peisheng looked for a royal chariot that I didn't use, went to the imperial placket, and sent Jia Huan back to his home. ”

……
