Chapter 150: Meeting (Part II)
didn't have time to think about it, Yang Ming had to hurry away, at this time it was already the beginning of the lanterns, Yang Sandao was waiting for him at the door very conscientiously, it seemed that the hospitality of the Yang Mansion made him very happy, at least now there was no restraint at the beginning, and he was chatting happily with the porter, it seemed that Yang Ming came over, and he learned the appearance of those guards at the door, and stood over without speaking, really like a bodyguard in the movie!
For Yang Ming's words, Yang Yanhe and Jiang Mian brought a feeling of seeing through the clouds, and the two of them asked themselves if everyone had flaws and likes and dislikes, but in terms of political affairs, in principle, they were still very serious and hardworking, especially Yang Yanhe had almost put all his energy into the governance of the Ming Dynasty. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
But!
Except for the Eight Tigers case, there will only be three or five years of peace in the world, but what about three or five years later? The continuous natural and man-made disasters year after year almost kept him busy desperately, but in fact he had no choice but to constantly embezzle the money from other places!
He knew that the annual tax was now getting less and less, and the power of the scholars had suddenly swelled to the point of infinity, and the fields were all collected by these people, and where would the taxes be collected? This is a strange circle, in order to be able to stand in the court, he has to rely on the scholars, and for the interests of the scholars, he has to cast a rat bogey, it is precisely because of this that he knows that it will be difficult for the country to have taxes to be levied, but he can still only compromise.
It's cold to be in a high place!
Yang Ming's words made him almost stunned! Why is it that Yang Ming can reopen an industry in the blink of an eye just by relying on the soldiers who are waiting for death with 10,000 numbers, and this industry can even bring millions of taels of silver to the dynasty every year.
There are not many tens of thousands of people, at least Yang Yanhe himself can mobilize tens of thousands of military horses at any time, of course, this must be approved by the cabinet or Jiajing, but this is not a problem, the problem is that he can't think of any way to use these people to generate income like Yang Ming did.
He looked at Jiang Mian on the side, Jiang Mian still seemed to be pondering, and it took a while for Jiang Mian to come to his senses and seemed to have benefited a lot.
"Weizhi, what do you think of Zile's words?" This is the second time he asked, after all, Yang Ming's several shots have already explained a lot of questions. If he followed Yang Ming's train of thought, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong, but he believed that at least the imperial court would not be short of money, and they, the ministers, would not scrape together the little money for disaster relief.
Jiang Mian leaned back in his chair, he really had a long experience today. It is said that Yang Ming has a golden finger, this opinion is really as good as his name, and he can analyze the truth from his words, he is actually thinking about it, but he is thinking about a sentence, it seems that Yang Yanhe asked again about the words that he had not answered just now, he frowned and asked after a little thought: "Yang Gong knows that when the liquor came out of Shu, this Yang Zile once said a word to Pang Yan!" ”
Yang Yanhe naturally knew this sentence. He said: "The old man naturally knows about this! ”
"At that time, this kid ruined his family for the daughter of a businessman, but this is understandable, it is not a big deal for young people to jump out of their natural temperament, so this kid made a coal group! Hehe! This is really not small, almost to all the gentry to send a way of wealth, but later this kid found that although the gentry have a way of money, but it has cut off the way of life of some people, in order to atone for the appearance of the liquor law, I don't know what the old man said is right? ”
Jiang Mian nodded, according to the intelligence, it seems that Yang Ming's liquor method is under such circumstances.
Yang Yanhe continued: "This liquor is actually not a drink for us, it is said to be a blend of something called industrial alcohol. The first drink is the same as the general wine, but it lacks the mellow aroma of the grain, but it is also considered a cold thing, so this kid thought of Wu Sizang! Hehe! That place, the bitter cold land, is flourishing, but this thing has few flaws, drinking too much seems to have some impropriety, two times into Tibet, brought back hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, the news from there last month, it is said that this liquor has been divided into three routes, all towards the surrounding small countries! ”
"What Yang Gong said is even! That's why you didn't also help the boy atone for his sins? Jiang Mian laughed and said, "The people of Shuzhong are free of money and food for three years!" For the first time in the history of the Ming Dynasty, a town was exempted! But Yang Gong, this kid is actually transferring the losses of the people of Shu to Wusizang, pity those plateau barbarians, not only do you have to pay a high price to buy the spirits he made, I'm afraid there are also worries about disability! This kid has the feeling that you used to hold a sword and write a book to kill the Eight Tigers of the Inner Court! “
Killing the Eight Tigers of the Inner Court was a proud move of Yang Yanhe in his heyday. Jiang Mian said this and patted Yang Yanhe's ass in disguise, this invisible sycophant really made Yang Yanhe very comfortable, the older this person is, the more he cares about his reputation, and there have been teenagers who have been around since ancient times. The truth of the old age precept, although everyone knows this truth, but it is inevitable to be ignored when it comes to himself, Yang Ming is his apprentice and grandson, and it is already an ironclad thing to reuse Yang Ming, no matter what, as long as he does not rebel, he must let his theory be implemented, although he is still a little unbearable in his heart, after all, this Wu Si Zang is the fifteen non-conscripted countries awarded by Taizu back then. It is also dependent on the existence of the Ming Dynasty, but over the years, those plateau barbarians seem to be a little restless, and it is good for them to suffer a little loss!
But another thought popped up in his mind: "Is Yang Ming's work a little too hurtful?" ”
After all, those barbarians are also people, he knows that industrial alcohol is not a good thing, there are more than ten people in Shuzhong just as a wine tester, and it is changed every three years, so what will be the consequences of these wine streams entering those bitter cold places? I shudder when I think about it, called blind? Create drunkards who ignore production?
Jiang Mian doesn't think so, although he is also a Confucian, but his understanding is different, Jiang Mian said: "Yang Gong has a lot of heart, as the so-called non-I race will have a different heart, and those who are not my race will be punished!" These barbarians are one thing in front of each other, and one thing is behind their backs, don't Yang Gong still understand? Back then, Confucius also had a time when he killed Shao Zhengmao, and those barbarians did not respect and educate men and women to steal and prostitute women, wives and daughters were for fun, sons married fathers and wives, brothers married brothers and sisters-in-law, and so on, **** things could be done, and we just used this to educate him! ”
However, there is another sentence that Jiang Mian did not say, that is, the dead Taoist friends do not die in the poor way, rather than let the Ming Dynasty let him and other officials be embarrassed for money, it is better to embarrass those barbarians, the Ming Dynasty can't take care of one acre and three points of land, where is there the leisure to care about the life and death of those savages?
