It's the end of the first year of middle age. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info tax collection time is June and November every year. Therefore, various provinces have successively solved this year's taxes. Many places have already been transported by the transshipment department, and this function is relatively simple to establish, especially in the canal area, and all of them can be loaded on ships.

'How's the income going this year?' ''Same as last year. More than 10 thousand. In the Yeonyeong Hall, a group of officials are discussing taxes. reported the income, and then the group began to discuss where to spend money next year, Li Chen dozed off a little when he listened.

It's boring, it's so boring, he didn't sleep well last night, and it's rare to want to take care of the child once. But overnight, I was woken up several times, either the baby was hungry or urinated. He swore he wouldn't do it again next time.

He didn't sleep well, and this tax had to be discussed, and he couldn't interject. Where to use money every year, and how much money to use, in fact, there is a certain amount, unless there is some big expenses, otherwise he can't talk at all. He felt that he only needed to know a rough idea, and there was really no need to spend time with them here.

'Sage, there hasn't been much increase in tax revenue this year, but it's not reduced either, and the results of the tax reform will probably be visible next year. Li Deyu said, "It's just that this kind of accounting, this year's tax revenue is about 1 million yuan shorter." ’

'For the short part, use the horse to copy the family property and subsidize it. What are the results of this year's tax reform? Li Chen frowned and replied to Li Deyu, and then turned his head to ask Cui Yuanshi.

'Hui saints, at present, it is still being promoted in various places. Quite productive. ’。 Li Chen believes that Cui Yuanshi said a sentence with his lungs, which is quite effective, how to get it? Will there be a shortage of results?

So he asked in a little more detail. Cui Yuan-style report that most of the places have completed the tax change. The newly established tax department has slowly taken over the responsibility of collecting taxes that were originally scattered in the hands of other units, but it will not be enough next year to completely restructure, and I am afraid that it will be the year after next.

'No hurry, take your time. Li Chen thought for a while and asked, "What are the main reasons for refusing to restructure?" ''Some places are remote, and some of them are inadequate, but the main ones are Lulong, Weibo and Chengde. Cui Yuanshi said, "The reason for this is..." Li Chen shook his hand and asked him not to say anything more, what the reason is, it doesn't matter, anyway, he just refuses to cooperate.

Li Chen's face was uncertain, the three towns of Hebei seem to be very loyal to the imperial court at present. However, in fact, I still listen to the propaganda and don't listen to it, but there is nothing I can do at present, I can only take one step at a time, and if I want to pull it out, I can't pull it out now.

I saw that everyone was tired, so I discussed it for a long time, took a break, and came back to discuss the reform of the imperial examination later. With that, he got up first and walked to a new palace on the side, followed by the courtiers.

It didn't go far before the goal was reached. This is a newly built palace, and from the outside, you can't see anything, but when you enter the inside, it's different.

Externally, it is just an ordinary courtyard, with a wall on the outside and a courtyard on the inside, and you can see from the outside of the wall, this is a two-story palace.

The whole Daming Palace, many places are like this, some palaces, is a separate palace, some have a wall outside, separating the inside and outside, into the inside is the courtyard first, and then the palace, similar to ordinary people.

Several prime ministers followed Li Chen in, it is winter, the courtyard is quite bleak, but there is also a unique scenery, the dark fragrance is fragrant, and many plum blossoms are planted in it that are not afraid of the cold winter and bloom bravely.

Opened the paper door, this is a porch, everyone first dragged their boots under the service of some palace people, put on something that was comfortable, called slippers, and then followed Li Chen and continued to walk forward.

Walking forward, a curtain was lifted, and people felt a burst of warmth, and the coal stove had been built inside. The curtain is to maintain the room temperature and avoid too much temperature difference between indoor and outdoor. It's hot on the outside and cold on the inside, or vice versa, and it's easy to be uncomfortable.

The ground was covered with logs, and there were handrails on the walls on both sides, but no one used them, which was for some of the older courtiers. It's just that Li Chen is currently entertaining ministers who come here, and he doesn't have the kind of old enough to need to be helped.

Along the corridor, to a point of divergence, some people followed Li Chen to turn left, and some people walked straight forward. Turning left and entering, an ordinary room, inside you can see, everyone has a sofa, a coffee table and a large wine cabinet. One side faces the yard, there is a large glass, look carefully and you can see the door frame, this is a floor-to-ceiling window, facing the yard, you can open the door and walk in at any time.

At this time, some snacks and drinks have been placed on the coffee table, and the drinks are tea and water. Li Chen had already sat down on a sofa and beckoned them to take care of themselves.

Wei Cong sat down, sitting on this soft sofa, the whole person was deeply immersed in the sofa, he still wanted to keep sitting, but this sofa, soft like this, it was really a little difficult, so he could only follow the sofa, and the whole person leaned on the sofa, feeling relaxed. I thought, fortunately, Old Man Wei had a big ugly last time, otherwise he would still be a little instigated.

sofa, of course, this was invented by Li Chende. The leather exterior is filled with cotton, and as soon as a person sits on it, the whole person will fall into it. A few days ago, discussing things in the Yanying Palace, during the intermission, Li Chen took them to this newly completed palace, and Wei Mo, the middle of the imperial history, was a little ugly.

Without knowing it, he sat on the sofa, because he suddenly fell into the sofa, he thought that the sofa was going to fall, and his body instinctively had to keep balance, so he danced and grabbed the armrest, only to find that the sofa was only relatively soft, not really falling.

This was nothing, just a human instinctive reaction, but Wei Mo made a big red face, he has always been old-fashioned and upright, but today he is ugly.

The courtiers were laughing, and Li Chen apologized to Wei Mo with a serious and serious face, saying that he didn't explain it in advance, and it was he who was not good. How dare Wei Mo really blame Li Chen, plus the others didn't laugh when they saw Li Chen apologize, and the matter was revealed.

In fact, Li Chen's stomach was cramping with a secret smile. He did it on purpose, the Tang Dynasty did not have such a soft chair at all, this is his newly established Royal Furniture Workshop, the launch of products to test the market. I deliberately put it here today, just to see him sit at the door for the first time, and he looks embarrassed.

Li Chen has a bit of a bad taste, in this kind of innocuous place, he really wants to make a joke, who knows that it happens to be Wei Mo, who has always been strict and self-proclaimed.

If it is made into a movie, it will probably be a good laugh. But Li Chen can't really let this matter become a joke. Otherwise, if you say it in a small way, it will be a small thing, and if you say it in a big way, maybe people will leave a mustard in their hearts from now on.

'This Ayaqi Palace, how can it be repaired so quickly, but in half a year, a palace will be repaired. Sitting on the sofa, making people feel comfortable for a while, Wei Fu took a sip of tea, and asked Zheng Lang to say, this is the Ayaqi Palace, after being burned by the fire, now after a few months, it has actually been completed, and Wei Fu can't help but be curious.

It was built with cement. Cui Yuanshi unveiled the mystery, "Cement? Oh, that cement, yes, cement and water, you can make a lot of forms. Solidified and hard as stone. Wei Fu suddenly realized.

'Cement? But this material doesn't look like it no matter how you look at it. Bai Minzhong touched the wall curiously, and Cui Yuanshi explained, "There is a layer of paper on the outside, you can see this color, and then it is painted again." So I can't see the appearance of the cement. ’

'It's okay to use cement to build roads, but is it safe to use it to build houses?' Zheng Gongbu, wouldn't this be too hasty. Wei Mo frowned and said, "Not only cement, but also bricks, there will be no problem with two layers." ’

This is what I mean, even I dare not live, who dares to build a house with cement in the future, I plan to build a series of cement bunkers on the frontier in the future. Li Chen opened his mouth and relieved Zheng Lang.

'Sage, we're almost rested, so let's continue the discussion.' Li Deyu interjected at this time. 'Okay, don't go that far, there's a conference room, just discuss it there.' ’

This Ayaqi Palace, the internal structure of Li Chen personally designed, the style is very ordinary, but there is everything inside, although there are only two floors, but there are kitchens, bathrooms, conference rooms, restaurants, bedrooms, everything. And it's not small. Basically, it is no problem to accommodate dozens of people for meetings and meals.

Design expenditure, Li Chen has plans to be like Xuanzong's calyx to compete for the Hui Building, so that he does not have to run around, he wants to go to court, he has to hold meetings, and it is very convenient to do anything.

Next, a group of mermaids entered the conference room, and the style of the conference room was similar to that of the conference rooms of later generations, with a long oval table and a leather chair, and there were wheels under the leather chairs, which was almost the same as modern society.

However, don't think about what projector or LCD monitor you want, you don't even have a microphone, and the most advanced thing is probably a blackboard hanging in the front.

After everyone came in, they found a place to sit, and there were not many people, everyone was relatively close, and if they were far away, they couldn't even hear clearly. Li Chen scratched his head a little, although he didn't show it, he should have someone prepare a small table, there was no microphone, such a large conference room was meaningless.

Once seated, the discussion began. A few guards guarded the door, not allowing idle people to approach, and they were far away, this was for confidentiality, but Li Chen had considered the problem of sound insulation in the design, whether it was the door or the wall, there would be no sound leakage.

Let's continue to discuss the reform of the imperial examination. Li Chen spoke first, "Li Xiang, you will have the imperial examination next year, and you will preside over it." As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, let Li Deyu be in charge of the imperial examination? A prime minister who was born as a shadow official, in charge of the imperial examination?
