Hearing Li Yichang say this, even if the good official smiled, the old man was still afraid of death, thinking that he would go under the knife afterwards, so he sent shares and wanted to climb his own big tree. Thinking of this, he said twice, "Why did Elder Li say this, could it be that Pontus seems to be the kind of person who is scheming and robbing?" As long as you do business seriously, I will naturally ensure that your business is prosperous and prosperous, and your wealth is as rich as Sanjiang. ”

It's a pity that his sentence of the pair that has been hung by the merchants of later generations for more than a hundred years did not make Elder Li feel at ease, but stood up with a flutter, "Dadu Governor, so far, why bother me, don't Dadu Governor plan to let me wait for raw silk to be wivened, and wait for raw silk to be woven into silk, or to sell it to Western countries, when the merchant ships go to sea, but the sea turmoil is sinister, and the fleet of Little Luzon is not the opponent of the Kyushu Metropolitan Envoy under Dadu Governor, and when the time comes, the wealth of the sky, it is not Dadu Governor You, it is just a backhand." ”

Belch! The obedient official was speechless for a long time by the old man, and after a while, he said slowly: "Who said these words to you?" ”

Li Yichang had a [I know so] expression on his face, and said sadly: "Governor, do you still need someone to say this?" As long as you are not fascinated by silver, you can see clearly, but unfortunately, everyone in the world is fascinated by silver and can no longer open your eyes......"

Old man Li's speculation is very vicious, there is a suspicion of a villain's heart in the belly of a gentleman, although the good official has similar plans, but he only intends to collect taxes, but not to rob merchant ships, he is the uncle of Zheng Guofan, the governor of the Nanjing Five Military Governor's Office, not the pirate Zheng Guofan.

After a deep sigh, the obedient official said: "Elder Li, you are also a scholar, but if you have read a sentence of Mencius, you will seek monopoly and climb it, and look left and right to make a profit." You merchants, if you make too much profit and refuse to pay taxes, in the long run, the kingdom will ......surely perish," he said here, and stretched out his hand to signal Li Yichang, who was about to speak, to stop and listen to him continue, "What you speculate on is only half right, I don't want to kill all the merchants, hehe!" I don't have that ability, boy, not to mention that the merchant has access to all over the world, which is indispensable, but the tax must be paid, and I don't plan to swallow the family property of the macro half-city in one bite, but if he only has silver in his eyes, he is eager to make a profit, and mortgages all the family wealth to eat a large amount of raw silk and weave it into silk, and then refuses to pay the tax, that ...... Hehe! ”

As he spoke, his face suddenly stunned, and then he laughed, and found that in the end, it wasn't what Li Yichang meant, but what the other party said was more naked.

Old man Li stood with his eyes closed, with a painful face, no matter who it was, no matter how open-minded he was, he enjoyed a lifetime of tax exemption, and at this time you asked him to pay taxes, it really cost him his life.

However, Li Yichang is indeed one of the very few businessmen who is rational and willing to think with his eyes open, who is behind Uncle Guo? That is, long live today, the uncle said that he wanted to collect taxes, that is not the emperor to collect taxes, if it is according to the convention, Suzhou is actually often apportioned, but, as soon as there is a disturbance in the locality, the government immediately coaxed, the reason why it is apportioned every year, just counting on the possibility of success, is equivalent to the fisherman whether there are fish or not, cast a few more nets, and hope that if he is lucky, he can catch a few fish.

For example, the tombstone of the famous five people in history, just looking at this paragraph, the grief and indignation are intense, and the blood is boiling, but if you contact the political situation at that time, you will find that it is just a knife in the hands of the court party, and it is really in vain to die those righteous people who died for their ideals.

If it's just the emperor who opens his mouth to collect taxes, Li Yichang, the Li Bancheng, is honestly not the emperor of birds, the emperor is far away, what are you afraid of, your emperor dares to move a little, the scholars of the world scold you to death, and the hundred officials scold you to death, but this Uncle Zheng Guo is different, people have power overseas, you unite with hundreds of officials to impeach others, unite with scholars to scold others, and people will not lose a single hair, but if people come to rectify you, it is a matter of fingers, do you want to buy other people's accounts, but your merchant ship wants to go to sea? The goods must be sold! If you can't sell it, what if your goods are piled up? It's not a rotten life that was put there.

Even, Li Yichang faintly felt that the so-called half-price auction in Ningbo was a big trap, the raw materials were sold to you, and you were happy to process them deeply, and then load them to the sea, but how did these raw materials come from? Don't forget, it was the governor of Little Luzon who slaughtered overseas merchants, and then was snatched back by the ironclad fleet of the commander of Kyushu. It is not yet a wedding garment for another.

The reason why the old fox said that he wanted to give a million is that he is unwilling to make wedding clothes for others, don't think that he is taking advantage of the raw silk promised by Uncle Guo to eat raw silk at a price of eighty percent, this Uncle Guo is ruthless! If you want to avoid this fate, you must first tie up with the pig raiser and get rid of the fate of being raised as a pig.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, opened his eyes and said: "Dadu Governor, the fly is attached to the tail and leads to thousands of miles, I don't know, whether the Dadu Governor can give Zai this opportunity, as long as he can keep fifty percent of the shares, the rest is willing to be attached to the Dadu Governor." ”

When the obedient official heard what he said, he immediately fixed his eyes on him, and the meaning of these fifty-fifty shares is probably that later generations will say, as long as I am the nominal major shareholder, the rest will be yours. And he Li Yi is often called Li Bancheng by the people of Suzhou, just now as soon as he opened his mouth, he came with a million, presumably there is more, there is still a net worth of millions of taels of silver, this time he spit it out, he must be cutting meat! It's a shame that he has such a decision, but it really can't be underestimated!

However, if this is the case, then he Zheng Guofan's reputation will be ugly, and he will eat half of Li Bancheng's net worth in an import at once, which is not very beneficial to stabilizing the Suzhou market, so he smiled, "Elder Li, to be honest, I would prefer to collect your taxes slowly, which is more stable." ”

Li Yichang heard him say this, thinking that the other party was afraid of being involved, so he opened his mouth and said: "Don't worry, I will make a will, and give my daughter Li Bao'er forty percent of the family property, although my daughter is a willow, but also knows arithmetic, I think I can help in front of the Metropolitan Governor, as long as the Metropolitan Governor does not dislike it......"

What he meant by this was that my daughter married you, so that you can rest assured, and I can rest assured.

Looking at the old fox's [what do you see] look, the good official's heart really moved, one sheep is raised, ten are also raised, and now there are many women around this old fox's daughter, and there must not be many daughters of this old fox, so that nominally, he is qualified to decide the wealth of Li Bancheng, and even ...... His mind turned quickly, and he thought of a problem that he would always face in the future, Lichujun, this time his elder sister Concubine De gave birth to a daughter, presumably it will take a year or two to have another son, if the son born after this becomes the Fu King instead of the emperor according to the historical customary surname, then his Uncle Zheng Guo is only flying and domineering for decades, and it is estimated that there will be a tragedy in the future, if you want to change, you must let the whole world accept a concept, not the eldest son can also take over the family business.

If he has forty or five shares of the Li family, as soon as this old man dies, he can toss and toss well, and even toss this matter to the world.

"How many sons do you have?" The obedient official suddenly asked Li Yichang.

"Three sons." Li Yichang hurriedly replied.

The obedient official hummed, clasped his arms in front of his chest, touched his smooth chin with one hand to make a thinking motion, paced back and forth, and after a while, he said, "Elder Li, how does your daughter look?" Although I accept your daughter as a concubine for the sake of family and country affairs, if it is too ugly, you can wronged me, and I am not a person who is willing to wronged myself for the sake of world affairs......"

Li Yichang's old fox face froze, anyone who heard this would not be happy, this is simply a typical example of being cheap and obedient, but he knew that he was not qualified to be angry in front of this person, so he had to knock out his teeth and swallow blood at the moment, but he didn't hear the meaning of this word, "The old daughter is outside, if not, call the governor to take a look." ”

The obedient official nodded, Li Yichang turned around and hurried away, and after a while, a girl was brought in, and the obedient official looked at it, and almost squirted out a mouthful of tea, this old man actually tied up his daughter, and there was a silk scarf stuffed in his mouth, but the appearance was still good, but there was some of the charm of the actress with the sweetest dimples in Asia in his memory in later generations, and nodded immediately, "Okay, just her!" I'm not bad for raising her more. ”

When Li Baoer was dragged into the flower hall by her father, she was still struggling, and at this time she heard the words of the girl with the jade crown on her head in front of her, but she was angry, did she talk like this? Is this girl just a pig in your eyes?

She whined and struggled, and the obedient official turned her head and called out to Risha, and Risha Sugatani understood, went over to untie Li Bao'er's body, and pulled out the gagged silk scarf from her mouth. As soon as Li Baoer was untied, it was to stretch out her elbow and shake it, this trick was learned by her and Cheng Chongdou, one of the two bibliophiles of Nan Zhili, in Cheng Chongdou's words, even if the woman's strength is small, but this is the strength of the waist, unless you really meet a master of natural power or proficient in this way, ordinary three or five idlers are shaken by you, they will eat you an elbow, you can take the opportunity to leave or hold the knife, after all, there is a follow-up method.

It is said that this is indeed not a problem to deal with three or five idlers, but the key is that Sugaya Risa is a native of Fusang Kyushu Island, of course, now it is Daming Kyushu Island, there, there has never been peace, all day long either this daimyo fights that daimyo or that daimyo destroys this daimyo, any kind of martial arts, no matter how vulgar, after more than a hundred years of chaotic war, it will also be tempered, not to mention that Fusang martial arts was originally passed down from the Sui, Tang and Song dynasties, and the identity of Sugaya Risa is a bit like the daughter of an official such as a county lieutenant in the Ming Dynasty, if it is in the Ming Dynasty, That must pay attention to women's redness, women's words, women's virtues, etc., maybe you have to be good at drawing a spring palace picture or something, but the war skills honed by Sugata Risa since childhood, the ability to kill people, nothing else, there is no problem with cutting off other people's heads, Li Baoer's trick will inevitably be ineffective against her.

She quietly put her arms around, and twisted Li Bao'er's backhand, Li Bao'er suddenly had to bend down, her elbow was sore, and she scolded at the moment, "You...... You let go of me. ”

Li Yichang's face next to him was green, and he regretted it at this time, he shouldn't have asked Cheng Chongdou to teach his daughter martial arts, so he hurriedly took two steps over and hugged his daughter, "Nannan, don't be naughty, you will be the governor of the capital in the future, you must respect your identity!" ”

"I'm going to marry you." Li Bao'er touched her wrist that was twisted, and glared at Zheng Guanguan with hatred, and the obedient official smiled, "Girl, you are wrong, you are a maidservant, not a concubine, if you want to be a concubine, you have to stay up for a few more years." ”

When Li Bao'er heard this, she almost fell, and immediately pointed at the obedient official and scolded: "You...... You bastard, you are a powerful person, you bully men and women, you are rich and unkind, and sooner or later there will be retribution. ”

The obedient official laughed, "There is indeed retribution, it is precisely because this retribution is going to fall on your father's head that your father has no choice but to ask me to come here, in order to save your life!" Your father's nickname is Li Bancheng, will silver fall from the sky? It's not someone else's, you tell me, how much this retribution deserves. Next to him, Li Yichang's face was full of embarrassment.

For retribution, obedient officials have always been disdainful, read history, where are they willing to believe in retribution, this is to fool the foolish village woman, to be honest, even the monks who preach cause and effect are afraid that few believe, as long as it is expansion, whether it is the country, capital, or religion, it has always been bloody, which big religion is not preaching truth, goodness and beauty, but which big religion is not full of bones in the process of expansion, religious wars kill people, it is terrifyingly tight, even the mildest Buddhism, There are not a few people who have died, let alone the other two religions, which have a strong surname.

Hearing what the good official said, Li Baoer clenched her pink fist tightly, eager to give him that nasty smiling face, but she was not stupid enough to be that point, and she could only kill the good official with her eyes.

smiled, the good official turned his face away from looking at her, and bowed slightly to Li Bancheng for half a salute, Li Yichang knew in his heart, and even said that he didn't dare, the two sat down again, and the good official said: "So, I will draw up a contract, and the family property under your name is all Bao'er's, however, I have the right to arbitrary, and when you return to heaven after the old man, this property is divided, I also have the right to preside, and if several sons want to get the family wealth, they will have to pay a lot of inheritance tax, otherwise, the government can not guarantee whether the wealth can be successfully delivered, If you always prefer which son, then it will be the best, I can also let the others get out, in short, the family wealth can be given to whoever you want, but it is definitely not the eldest son who can inherit everything logically......"

He openly discussed the division of family property after Li Yichang's death, and Li Yichang nodded again and again, Li Bao'er's eyes widened, quite incredulous, and couldn't help shouting: "Dad, are you stupid, he is going to open his mouth to embezzle our family's property!" ”

Li Yichang smiled bitterly in his heart, don't I know? But the lesser of two evils is better than having all the family property swallowed! Bao'er! Good girl, if you are sensible and give birth to a son and a half daughter, you may not be able to reverse this situation, maybe it is possible for our family to become more and more prosperous, good girl, my father is also doing a deal now, a life-and-death transaction, but if it is really successful, it will be a million profits!
