Chapter 204: Li Wei treats guests

Li Wei hummed a little song all the way back to the 'Lao Ma Ji Inn', and the beauty in his heart was mentioned, what is the guard? It is the palace guard who is waiting for the prince at any time, as soon as he enters the guard, not only has a background, but also has a lot of opportunities for promotion, a third-class guard of the palace is from the fifth grade, and the speed of promotion is much faster than those who are sour people.

As soon as he entered the door of the inn, Li Wei instructed Xiao Er: "Order a good table for the master and send it to the upper room." ”

The inn junior is the most clever, but as soon as he heard Li Wei's instructions, he knew that this master had a happy event, so he stammered: "Ouch, Li Ye has a big happy event today, look at the spiritual head of the master, either promoted or rich." ”

There is a way that people are in good spirits when they are happy, Li Wei said with a smile: "Boy, you have eyesight, you can say it well, and you will be rewarded." As he spoke, he threw over a piece of broken silver horn.

"Thank you, Master Li." Xiao Er grabbed the broken silver horn with one hand neatly, bowed down and thanked him, got up and asked, "Master, are you going to have a banquet today?" Can it be achieved in 10 taels and 1 seats? ”

Li Weijing's question is also a treat? Can't I eat it myself? Thinking about it, it is very boring for a person to eat dry wine, he is a bold and open-minded person, so he smiled and said: "There are Jiangnan merchants in the inn?" ”

Now it's the end of the year, where are the merchants in the inn, except for the two who came to adapt to the water and soil in advance, the others are all characters who can't get on the stage, but if you don't book a table, you won't get the benefits, Xiao Er also reacted very quickly, and immediately smiled: "Yes, there are two, Master Li and go back to the room to sit down, the small one is arranged, and then give the master a hot towel." After speaking, he bowed happily to Li Wei.

It didn't take long for a few small people in the restaurant to carry food boxes and set up a seat in Li Wei's room, ten taels of silver table, which was also a good table in the capital.

Xiao Er did a good job at this time and pulled Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo over, and introduced as soon as he entered the house: "Li Ye is from Jiangsu, this is Yu Gongzi from Haiyan, Zhejiang, and this is Dai Gongzi from Anhui Hezhou...... It's also a lot of fate, and the three are slow to use. As he spoke, he smeared oil on the soles of his feet, slipped away, and deducted one or two of the ten taels of the table, but he didn't dare to stay longer.

As soon as Xiao Er left, Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo said, "I took the liberty of bothering Brother Li." ”

Li Wei was originally a bold person, and when he was in a good mood, he smiled and said: "Meeting is fate, Li is a cheerful person, the two of you don't need to be polite, please, please take a seat." ”

Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo are both lifters, and they have gone to banquets a lot, and they often meet the texts when they raise their sons, seeing Li Wei's hospitality, they are also swept away and restrained, the three of them sat down, three glasses of wine went down, and there were more words, and after a set of words, I knew that Li Wei had voted for the fate of today's fourteenth elder brother and was accepted as a personal guard.

The two of them put their hearts at ease, it turned out to be a wedding feast, although they were a little envious, but they were not jealous, their backgrounds were different, their careers were different, seeing Li Wei's boldness, both of them were a strong persuasion.

Dai Duo drank a few glasses, but suddenly thought of the case of "Nanshan Collection", now the Fourteenth Master is in charge, since the court is lenient, it must not be forbidden to visit, why not take this opportunity to beg this Li Wei, find a chance to go to see Dai Mingshi in prison, not only to make a good fate, but also to enhance his reputation in Shilin.

Thinking of this, Dai Duo covered his face with a little bit of wine, raised his glass and said, "Brother Li, since I have entered the fourteenth master's guard today, I don't know if I can help in the next favor." ”

"Brother Dai, please speak." Li Wei also had a little bit of wine, and said boldly: "As long as I can do it, I, Li Wei, will never refuse." ”

"It's not that hard." Dai Duo dried the wine in one gulp and said: "Dai Mingshi of the "Nanshan Collection" case is in the uncle of the lower clan, and is now detained in the prison of the Criminal Department. ”

As soon as he heard this, Yu Hongtu also helped and said: "Brother Li must help with this favor, the fourteenth master is now in charge of the case of "Nanshan Collection", and this matter is just a gesture for you. ”

"Okay, I keep this in mind, the prince was happy that day, and I will ask you for a favor." Although Li Wei drank a few more glasses, he knew in his heart that although he was full of promises, he didn't dare to say it to death.

Seeing that Li Wei should come down, Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo were both happy, and after drinking two more laps, Yu Hongtu said: "The wine is boring, it's better to tell me a joke to make everyone happy." So saying, he said:

Someone paid for an official job. When you take office, go and meet your boss.

The boss asked, "How is the terroir of your county?" ”

He replied: "There is not much wind and sand in this county, and there is little dust. ”

Q: "How about spring flowers?" ”

Answer: "This spring, cotton is 288 per catty. ”

Asked: "How is the gentleman's grain?" ”

Answer: "The villain should wear three feet six. ”

Ask: "What about the people?" ”

Answer: "There are only two white apricots, and there are many red apricots. ”

The boss said angrily: "I'm asking about Li Shu"

He replied respectfully, "My lord asked the pear tree, yes, yes, there are many pear trees, but the fruit is too small. ”

The boss was furious and asked sharply, "I'm not asking about the apricot tree and pear tree, but about your Xiaomin." ”

He quickly stood up, hunched over and replied, "The little one's name is Dog." ”

When Dai Duo heard this, he smiled and bowed his back, but Li Wei glanced at Yu Hongtu and asked, "Brother Yu knew me before?" ”

Yu Hongtu was puzzled, shook his head and said, "When we met for the first time today, why did Brother Li come here to ask?" ”

Li Wei said seriously: "Li's nickname is called a dog." ”

As soon as they finished speaking, Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo couldn't lift themselves up with laughter.

Qianqing Palace West Warm Pavilion.

Kangxi was reviewing the recital, but he heard Li Dequan report in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Ortai is handing over a sign to ask to see you." ”

"Yes, call him in." Kangxi said without raising his head, and after reviewing the folds in his hand, he raised his head, this Ortai came quickly, I don't know what the effect of the Qinhuai River pilot project is? At the beginning of the fourteenth year, he was willing to take Qin Huaihe's income for two years to two million taels of silver, so he must not be far behind.

After Ortai came in, he knelt down and said, "The servant bows to the emperor and asks for the emperor's holy peace." After getting up, he knelt down on a special white carpet.

Kangxi then asked: "What is Qin Huaihe's income this year?" ”

"Back to the emperor, 1.6 million taels."

One million taels Kangxi was slightly stunned when he heard this, but it was a lot more than he expected, he was already content with one million taels, but he didn't expect it to be one million and six million, and soon, he continued to ask: "How is the reaction of the owner of the Qinglou?" How much of your income is taxed? ”

"Back to the emperor, taxes have accounted for 30% of his profits, and the owners of the green buildings have complained a lot, but still no one has closed down or boycotted the market." Because he was kneeling, Ortai's answer was as concise, accurate, and concise as possible.

only accounts for 30%, there are 1.6 million? Kangxi didn't expect that the Qinglou industry in Qinhuaihe, Jiangning, was so prosperous, since no one closed down and boycotted the market, it means that this method is still feasible, it used to be only one in twenty, it was really cheap for those vampires, or the old fourteen have eyesight, this method not only collects money, but also does not hurt the people.

After pondering for a moment, Kangxi then asked, "In your opinion, can you still add it?" ”

Hearing that Kangxi still had the idea of raising taxes, Ortai hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, the fourteenth master went to Jiangning, and the slave once asked for instructions on this matter, and the meaning of the fourteenth master was not more than thirty percent." The minions secretly thought that the current standard was just right, after all, they still had to pay some local miscellaneous taxes, and no matter how high they were, they were afraid that it would backfire. ”

Kangxi nodded slightly, but he couldn't kill chickens and take eggs, and after a pause, he continued to ask: "What do you think of the Qinhuai River pilot?" ”

On the way back to Beijing, Ortai imagined countless times, what Kangxi would ask, this question was also in his expectations, a little sorted out, he replied: "Back to the emperor, the Qinhuai River pilot of the Fourteenth Master and the Beijing industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax pilot are in the same line, the main purpose is to correctly guide the luxury consumption industry, the Qinhuai River pilot is to levy high taxes on the luxury industry, and the Beijing industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax pilot is to regulate and balance the normal development of various industries.

The pilot situation of the industrial and commercial miscellaneous taxes in the capital, the slaves do not know, but the Qinhuai River pilot is undoubtedly very successful, the slaves in Jiangning have also had a preliminary understanding of other industries in Jiangning, and the slaves steal that this law can be vigorously implemented, not only for the benefit of the country and the people, but also to inhibit the abnormal development of the luxury industry, and at the same time to support the development of the necessary and low-profit industries. ”

Kangxi glanced at Ortai with satisfaction, the old fourteen commented on this person, diligent and cautious, meticulous and thorough, good at drawing inferences from one another, it seems that it is not bad at all, he pondered for a long time, and then he said: "I want to implement the industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax reform in Jiangning City, can you be confident?" ”

Ortai was overjoyed to hear it, what the Fourteenth Master said was right, Kangxi really wanted to start vigorously reforming the tax system, this is a rare opportunity, he kowtowed steadily and said: "The slave must do his best to ensure stability, orderly and efficient implementation of Jiangning City's industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax innovation." ”

Listening to him put stability and orderliness in front, Kangxi nodded with satisfaction and said: "Jiangnan is the country's tax land, stability is the top priority, the innovation of industrial and commercial miscellaneous taxes is related to the national policy, the importance of the pilot, I will not repeat it, everything needs to be gradual, and the data of various industries should be accurate to serve as a reference for promotion." ”

"The slave respects the emperor's teachings, and must be conscientious and conscientious." Ortai replied calmly.

Kangxi bowed slightly, and said: "Yinzhen is also in Jiangnan, please ask him if you don't understand." In order to facilitate your implementation of the industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax reform in Jiangning, you will be rewarded with the title of Household Servant. ”

From the second grade Ortai didn't expect that he would be promoted from the fourth grade to the second grade of the waiter, and sure enough, he was promoted with the fourteenth master, "The slave Xie Emperor is kind and will do his best to repay it." ”
