If others say that, Lu Chengqi will definitely not be very happy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But let the arrogant bones say this like Xu Chongguang, Lu Chengqi was happy, this is not sycophancy, this is sincere words. "Haha, Xu Qing's words are unbearable. Don't you hear that the king of Shang has a good name before taking office? It has only been three years since I ascended the throne, and it is too early to say that. ”

Seeing that Lu Chengqi was not blindly confident, Xu Chongguang was relieved, and suddenly remembered that there was another letter in his sleeve, should he present it to the little emperor together? The little emperor looks in a good mood today, even if he wants to be angry, it will be lighter, right?

Xu Chongguang doesn't know these curves, but he doesn't care about them on weekdays. But if you want Lu Chengqi to listen, you still have to use some means. Although this little emperor is young and vigorous, he doesn't want to hear a voice that goes against his will, but some things in the world don't exist if he doesn't want to listen. After struggling for a while, Xu Chongguang still decided to take out the envelope and fold it out, and slowly handed it to Lu Chengqi.

"...... this?" Lu Chengqi's face was full of question marks, and he opened the recital for some reason.

As Xu Chongguang expected, Lu Chengqi's originally smiling face suddenly turned cold, and he looked like he was about to be furious. "Alas, the timing couldn't be better, if Your Majesty doesn't accept this, then Dashun is in danger......" Xu Chongguang had relatives in his heart, and he felt disheartened.

The atmosphere in the vertical arch hall gradually cooled down. It was Gao Ho outside the hall, and when he heard that there was suddenly no sound in the hall, he also muttered: "What's the matter, could it be that Xu Shoufu has offended Your Majesty again?" Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little cold, it turned out that a gust of autumn wind blew, bringing a trace of coolness.

After a long time, Lu Chengqi put down the fold, and there was no expression on his face. Xu Chongguang looked at it, his body trembled slightly, and he knew in his heart that he was afraid that this chair would not be sitting for long. As soon as this little emperor is angry, he has to kneel down and plead guilty, where can he sit for a long time? Looking at the little emperor's face, he knew that it was absolutely impossible to compromise on this matter.

"Alas, I know that I can't do anything, but I want to survive......"

Xu Chongguang's thoughts were not finished, and Lu Chengqi opened his mouth: "Xu Qing's recital, I have taken a closer look, and it is also a great reference ......."

"What?!"

Xu Chongguang thought that he had heard poorly, and the little emperor ...... He didn't even get angry, and he said that it was reasonable? Xu Chongguang hid his hand in his sleeve and pinched his thigh hard to see if he was living in a dream. It was just that the intense pain came, clearly telling him that it was not an illusion.

Lu Chengqi continued to joke: "I mean that Xu Qing's letter has great merit. ”

Xu Chongguang finally recovered from the shock, and he is also the first assistant of the cabinet, and his ability to resist attacks is very good. "Your Majesty...... Don't think it's wrong? ”

Faced with Xu Chongguang's tentative questioning, Lu Chengqi said truthfully: "What's wrong...... Of course! As soon as Xu Chongguang heard it, he knew that the little emperor wanted to capture him. No, it should be said that he avoided the important and trivialized, and he must talk about his set of "economic theories".

is worthy of being the first assistant of the cabinet, and he knows in advance what Lu Chengqi wants to say. No, Lu Chengqi began to say: "Xu Qing said in the fold, 'Under the whole world, if the people are businessmen, then they will not farm, they will not work, and they will make profits'. As far as I know, this is not an easy task, and it requires hard work to get the money back. For example, if Zhang has three kinds of wheat for ten acres, if he does not sell it, he will have to eat it himself. But these ten acres of wheat, he can eat for several years, but he has so many stone wheat, a few more years, wouldn't it be more? And Li Si raised silkworms, he worked hard to raise silkworms, knot silk, and make clothes, but he could only wear them by himself, so how long could he wear them? Those who need wheat can't get wheat, and those who need clothes can't get clothes. Xu Qing has been a household secretary, this truth should be understood, right? ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't want to completely ban business...... Xu Chongguang was eager to show himself and wanted to defend himself. Lu Chengqi also knew, and waved his hand to let him calm down.

"At this time, if there is a merchant who buys Zhang San's wheat at the market price and sells it to Li Si; He also used the market price to buy Li Si's clothes and sold them to Zhang San, but the three of them took what they needed, wouldn't they all be happy? Of course, I'm just using an analogy, and there must have been more people buying this and selling that during that time. There is really nothing to sell, so I can only sell my mind and physical strength. Xu Qing, it's better to be blocked, you know this. A stick can't knock a boatload of people to death, and doing business has disadvantages, but it has more benefits. What we have to do is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. ”

Xu Chongguang didn't squeak, he calmed down, knowing that the little emperor couldn't be persuaded anymore, and he didn't want to talk in vain.

"However......" Lu Chengqi suddenly changed his words, "Xu Qing's twists and turns, there are still quite merits in other aspects." Take the clause that 'officials and their relatives are not allowed to do business,' and I think it is advisable. It's just that relatives are not allowed to do business, which is a bit too much to say. Officials were not allowed to do business, and this was for the sake of the imperial court. If I am bent on making money, I will fulfill him. ”

When he said this, Lu Chengqi's tone was a little harsh, which made Xu Chongguang suddenly see a glimmer of light.

"In addition, 'merchants monopolize, hoard goods, and inflate commercial prices' is also a stubborn disease. I thought about it, I still have to make up for the "Great Shun Law", if during the famine, some unscrupulous businessmen hoarded food, wouldn't it be a waste of human life? This is indeed something to ponder in order to prevent future troubles......"

Xu Chongguang opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty is wise! ”

Lu Chengqi waved his hand and said, "Don't be busy complimenting, I haven't finished talking yet." Xu Qing: You said that these businessmen ignore traditional ethics, which is also debatable. I respect the 'Duanmu legacy' and buy and sell in good faith, but there are some people who want to 'no treachery and no business'. Those who sell fakes, those who sell wine mixed with water, and those who are short of catties and pounds...... There's a lot of people here. In the past, there were not enough people in the household department, so I turned a blind eye. Now that there are more and more businessmen, it is time to enact policies to curb these bad practices......"

Xu Chongguang really wanted to remind Lu Chengqi that this no treacherous business is not a derogatory term, but a positive word, which should have been "no sharp business". At this time, the common people buy rice to "shengdou" as a measuring device (so there is a "shengdou small people" saying), and the seller will use a mahogany ring ruler and other tools to cut the rice bulging in the shengdou when measuring rice, so as to ensure that the amount is sufficient. After the money and goods are sold, the merchant will add some rice to the bucket, and if the surface of the rice has been smoothed, it will be puffed into a pinch of "pointed heads" to make profits as much as possible. It has become a custom to add a little bit of rice to do business, that is, to do business, always give the guests a little "add head", which is a kind of business gimmick of old-school businessmen, this small pinch of "add head", very useful to guests, so there is a "no sharp business" said. "No tip is not business" is also reflected in going to the cloth village to pull the cloth, "full foot to put three", "add three feet"; Copying oil and wine is a bit of a "plus". It's just that these things don't need to be said to Lu Chengqi, Xu Chongguang can understand it himself.

"Xu Qing, you have written all the illegal things of profiteers, but there is no countermeasure?" Lu Chengqi said with a little dissatisfaction. (To be continued.) )
