Chapter 10 Sharp Change

Li Gang's last words have been revealed in the usual communication with Lin Fan, he only has two requests, one is to help take care of his two sons, although these two sons can be Lin Fan's uncle, but Li Gang still feels that Lin Fan's ability will always be stronger than his two children.

"Manage the school well and let the knowledge pass on forever!"

This is Li Gang's second and most important requirement, because education is also his long-cherished wish.

As for burying Li Gang in the mountains behind the Lin Academy, this is a long time ago Li Gang had already made his intentions, and Lin Fan and Li Gang's two sons would do a good job in the future.

Li Gang is worthy of being a great Confucian in the early Tang Dynasty, serving three generations of princes, and his prestige is very high.

Needless to say, Li Gang's funeral was very grand, many people sent him the last ride, the funeral procession was hundreds of meters away, and the tomb was directly located in the mountain behind the school, not far away, so the backyard of the school was basically crowded, and it was even more lively than when the school started.

In addition to the royal family and others, there are also students who live in Chang'an, and they are all one of the contributors to the Lin Academy, if it weren't for him to pull the strings, Lin Fan wouldn't know if he could establish this school.

The mourning hall is directly located in the Lin Academy, although the white mans are shaky, they cannot give people a terrifying and terrifying feeling, only a sad atmosphere spreads around.

The funeral ended quickly, everything went according to the old man's last wish, and with Li Gang being buried in the back mountain, his life officially came to an end.

Li Gang's death Lin Fan did not show much sadness, very indifferent, when he looked up at the starry sky, he often wondered, which world Li Gang would be in, for him who had already died once, death was nothing, and he also felt that if Li Gang was lucky enough, maybe he would also travel to a certain time and space like him.

He sometimes often wonders, how will Tang people like Li Gang survive in the world more than a thousand years from now?

The Tang people are a group of people who are more optimistic, happy and sad, and the sadness brought by the death of the Tang Taifu was quickly diluted away without a trace after the arrival of the Yuan Day, and everyone was immersed in the happy atmosphere of celebrating the new year.

Datang's first day this year is a little different, everyone always has a satisfied smile on their faces, and last year's opening up of business policies has benefited many people.

There are a lot of copper plates on the body, it is difficult for anyone to think badly, although the Tang people are simple, but no one can't get along with the copper plate, no one doesn't want to change the current situation, and no one doesn't want to make their lives better.

It's just that there is an undercurrent surging in the happy atmosphere.

Not long after time quietly stepped into Zhenguan for six years, Boss Li, who had been pressing for a long time, finally had a new move, and he decided to start implementing the cutting-edge system!

Boss Li was a shrewd emperor, and he never took matters into his own hands when there were many obstacles that could cause major changes.

Needless to say, this sharp reform will be hindered by many obstacles, and Boss Li does not want to be the cusp of public opinion, so he has found a substitute to resist public opinion.

Yang Xu became the scapegoat for this sharp reform, and the pillar passed a secret decree to Yang Xu in the dark night, asking him to put forward his opinions on sharp reform in the great court meeting.

Boss Li can't always put forward a sharp reform for no reason, someone needs to take the lead, he can answer this suggestion as an emperor, although this suggestion is not conducive to the officials, but it is beneficial to the people, Boss Li accepted this suggestion, and at the same time get the hearts of the people, but also get a good reputation from the words and advice, this kind of thing Boss Li likes to do.

Yang Xu has no room to refuse, the emperor's secret decree asked him to do this is to value him, all along, he has never been favored by the emperor, this time it is rare for the emperor to value, he can't refuse, although he understands in his heart all kinds of pressure to do so.

Yang Xu attaches great importance to this opportunity, because of some entanglements with Lin Fan before, it is difficult to report Lin Fan to the emperor, if you want to win the emperor's favor, you must follow the emperor.

According to the emperor's secret decree, Yang Xu put forward a proposal for sharp reform in the next day's court meeting.

This is a shocking suggestion, as soon as Yang Xu put forward this suggestion, he immediately became the focus of everyone, and everyone's eyes fell on this usually inconspicuous official.

The silent Tai Chi Hall began to discuss, and the officials whispered, everyone weighing the pros and cons of this sharp change for themselves.

"This is the advice of benefiting the country and the people, but there are some drawbacks, the taxpayers should be mainly businessmen in the world, supplemented by farmers, Weichen thinks that the court officials do not need to pay taxes, and the officials pay taxes, which is unprecedented."

Wei Zheng is worthy of being a straightforward person, and if there is anything that is not in line with his wishes, he dares to question and raise it face to face.

Although he is good friends with Yang Xu, the concept of his friends is different from his own, and he will not leave any mercy.

With Wei Zheng taking the lead, many people have said that hundreds of officials do not need to pay taxes, and once they pay taxes, their own interests will be affected, and these people are naturally unwilling to do it.

Yang Xu didn't say anything more during the whole process, he kept his head down and didn't say anything, he knew that if he said a few more words, the saliva of these people around him was enough to drown him.

In the face of so many rebuttals, Boss Li didn't show much domineering, treated all this gently, and seemed to acquiesce to this suggestion of the hundred officials.

The Great Dynasty Meeting ended smoothly, everyone was in a good mood, for the civil and military officials, the emperor's sharp system was only for merchants and peasants, and had no impact on them, at most, they had members of these noble families doing business abroad, and they needed to pay some sharp, and the little money they took did not need to pay any sharp.

There are people in the family who are in business, it is inevitable to hand over Rui, these officials have nothing to say, they can't be handed over by other businessmen, you are an official of the imperial court can avoid Rui, and it is already very good to be able to win Yu Lu without paying Rui.

When this policy was implemented, many people found out that the real purpose of the emperor conniving at everyone to do business turned out to be like this, let everyone do business well, and then extract some profits from it afterwards.

The emperor is really a good calculation, so down, the state money will naturally increase.

The clever officials also know that Yang Xu's sharp reform advice at the court meeting is probably mostly instructed by the emperor, and judging from the fact that Yang Xu has not made much achievements in the court, he can make such a subtle suggestion unless the sun comes out of the west.

The civil and military officials understood the emperor's painstaking efforts, so from now on, the profits from doing business were less, and they recognized it, this is also to make some efforts and make a little contribution to the country, there is no big deal.

But when they found that the number of people was less than in previous years, they were not calm, and many people played and asked if there was something wrong with it.

In fact, the civil and military officials have vaguely known in their hearts that this is not a matter of internal miscalculation, if this is the case, it is impossible for all the officials of the court to miscalculate, they just want the emperor to give a clear answer.

The answer was beyond their expectations, and the emperor did this for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, since everyone was unwilling to hand over a part of Rui, then reduce the distribution of Yulu.

Having said that, everyone knew in their hearts that this was just the emperor's disguised retraction, and they only now knew that the emperor had not made a dragon power at that time, in fact, he had already had an acupoint in his heart.

The emperor insisted on this, and the officials were helpless, and it was difficult to show dissatisfaction if they wanted to play, after all, the reason was not as big as the people in the world.

Datang Ruikai was implemented like this, this time Boss Li still has a conscience, at least he didn't put forward the initiator of this policy, otherwise, it would not be so simple for Lin Fan to live a comfortable life.......

I don't know if the civil and military officials in the court hated Boss Li's trick and made everyone yin, or if they were growing in their eyes, these people actually proposed to ask Boss Li to seal Zen.

This is not to go to Yushan or Yashan outside Chang'an City to seal a Zen casually, but to go to Mount Tai to seal the real Great Zen.

The reason for these court officials is very good, saying that now that the sharp system has been reformed, the state treasury has increased, and the economic strength of the Tang Dynasty has improved significantly, it is necessary to seal the Zen well and thank God for the good intentions of God.

Boss Li also felt that it was worth thanking God, now under his governance, the Tang Dynasty is not what it used to be, while the economy is improving, the military strength is also gradually rising, and the weapons produced by the Martial Arts Research Institute of the Lin Academy are advanced, which is incomparable to other countries.

There is such an achievement that is worth celebrating, and it is worth thanking God for this old man.

"Feng Zen is a laborious move of the country, Your Majesty should think twice, although the national strength is strong, but it is just the beginning, there are still many external troubles, and it is not suitable for Feng Zen!"

Wei Zheng is a good minister who does not hold grudges, even if Boss Li also yin him, he does not have the thoughts of other officials, and still maintains a high-spirited attitude, once this suggestion is put forward, he immediately vetoed it.

It seems that there is something new and important happening in the court, and he always has to sing a counterpoint with Boss Li, which is already his professional habit.

During this period, Boss Li was worthy of being a well-known good king in history who loved to listen to advice, and he also had a good temper, and he always got along with Wei Zheng, an official who always liked to go against him.

Maybe it was because he saw that the Tang Dynasty now had hope of going to a prosperous era, Boss Li was in a good mood, and this time he actually followed Wei Zheng's advice and dispelled the idea of sealing Zen.

In other words, it was Boss Li in the late period of Zhenguan in history, Wei Zheng disagreed with him again and again, only a tragic end, Boss Li had a particularly bad temper at that time, first, the external troubles still have not been removed, especially Goryeo, which has always been the goal he wants to conquer, but he has not been able to conquer until he dies.

Of course, the main reason is that in history, too many tragic things have happened to the Li family, and no matter how strong Boss Li's heart is, it will become weak.

Although the Feng Zen proposed by the civil and military officials this time was mainly for the reason of celebrating the increase in national funds, which was somewhat inconsistent with history, Lin Fan did not change anything in this link. (To be continued.) )
