The six of them were talking inside, and the people outside were very nervous, they didn't think about asking for Zhao Kuangyin's money at all, did they dare to ask for it? But the emperor came to eat 1,300 tables of wine and food, which is also the highest table of dishes since the opening of Shundian, what does the emperor mean by this?

There are several stewards in Shundian, and the chief steward is Yuping, but she doesn't come often, mainly because of a supervisory role, and the rest is handed over to these large and small stewards, and after discussing for a while, I can't figure it out, I'm afraid that something will happen, so I sent a person to ride a horse and gallop quickly into the city to inform Song Jiu.

Song Jiu was teaching, and after hearing this, he hurriedly went out of the city, anyone could come to eat, but Zhao Kuangyin was not welcome to come, in case he had any ideas for eating, the consequences would be worrying. Galloping into the main store, more than a dozen guards spread out their guards, and this was fine. Come to Shun to eat and drink not only for the deliciousness, but also for the pie. Just wait and see the emperor's true face. So all the guests scattered at the door together, waiting for Zhao Kuangyin to come out. Song Jiu turned over and dismounted, asked the servants to lead the horse into the stable, and ran in. Zhao Kuangyin took a few ministers to eat.

The dish is expensive, but it is also delicious, it can be sold so expensive, what kind of seasoning is reluctant to put it? Moreover, there are more than 20 chefs in Shun Shop, and they are real chefs, even if a plate of fried vegetables comes out of their hands, the taste will be different.

Several people ate wine and vegetables at the same time, only Liu Wensuo ate not a taste, 1,300 yuan, a prefect's salary for a year was eaten in one meal. Song Jiu hurriedly went in to meet the driver. Zhao Kuangyin said: "Song Jiu, have you ever eaten a meal of 1,300 yuan? ”

"Wechen didn't."

"Why?"

"It's too extravagant."

"Then I'm in for a treat today."

"Well, let's settle the bill."

"No, how can I get a courtier to have a treat?"

Song Jiu was nervous and didn't dare to answer.

"This wine is not bad either. A taste for me. ”

"Your Majesty, if you think it's good. You can send an attendant to come and buy it, but if you use this wine to feast on the ministers. Your Majesty can't persuade you to drink, otherwise you will definitely get drunk with many ministers. Song Jiu said worriedly. The court and buy, Song Jiu will definitely not make money from the court, at most the cost will be charged, even if it is not a big problem at all. was afraid of Zhao Kuangyin's persuasion, and at the banquet with Song Jiu, Zhao Kuangyin also forced Song Jiu to drink a few large cups, not to mention with others. This is no other wine, drink it in two. It's almost enough to drink people who can't drink enough.

"Do you think I didn't count? Look, I'm also using this little cup, otherwise Liu Zhongcheng will be the first to impeach you tomorrow. ”

Song Jiu gave up his hand to Liu Wensuo and made a plea.

Liu Wensuo shook his head and smiled bitterly and said, "Song Jiu, as long as you pay your taxes seriously, the old man will not worry about you in the details." ”

"Thank you, Liu Zhongcheng."

"Liu Qing, it seems that you are also a tiger of mine, even this little Song Jiu is afraid of you. Song Jiu, sit down. ”

Song Jiu sat down. Zhao Kuangyin took out some folds from his arms and said, "Watch while eating." ”

Song Jiu opened it and saw that it was the relevant twists and turns about the land price dispute in Lijia Village.

"Why did Your Majesty let Weichen look at it?"

"It's a small thing, it's not a small thing."

"Yes. It would have normative implications. ”

"Guidelines, guidelines," Zhao Kuangyin put down his glass. "Yes, that's the word." So I couldn't do it for a long time, and I was also confused. ”

Song Jiu wondered in his heart. Since you say it, you can summon yourself into the palace and say it alone, why do you say it in front of Zhao Pu? Looking at Zhao Pu again, Zhao Pu's face was calm, and he couldn't see what he thought, but Song Jiu only glanced at it, it was very wise, and it was strange that he could see Zhao Pu's inner world.

"Tell me, how should it be decided?"

"Weichen dares to say."

"It's okay, you just need to say what you think, don't worry about Zhao Xianggong, the value of that piece of land in Hebei is not big, and it is only equivalent to the cost of four or five such meals." Zhao Kuangyin also laughed after speaking, Zhao Pu also laughed on the side, and Zhao Kuangyin said again: "There is not much money, but it will be a criterion." Even Zhao Xianggong must put state affairs first. ”

"What the official said is very true, Song Jiu, you can say it boldly, the old man will not blame you. You're having fun, as long as you don't do anything wrong, no one takes it seriously. ”

"Then I'll say it."

"Say, boy, don't play tricks."

"Okay, Wechen will talk about the problem of values first, Wechen has a lot of money that he doesn't earn, the country's money doesn't earn, and there is no country to come home?"

"Well said, I'll give you a glass of wine."

Here, this is an authentic old burn, one two five in a cup! Song Jiu said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, the ministers are small, so let's reward the ministers with a cup." ”

Drink a cup of Lao Rou in one sip, no matter how many big guys there are, eat a piece of food first and swallow it, otherwise it's really spicy. After a sigh of relief, he said: "Secondly, education, charity, disaster relief, saving lives and helping the wounded, the same is true for land, if it is to build bridges and pave roads, build education, build water conservancy, defend cities and military villages, charity and disaster relief, these lands, not only the state, but also private people, no one can be insatiable and extort land." There are even some special circumstances, such as flood discharge, where officials can forcibly dig embankments, and no one can stop them, lest they gain a small amount and lose a lot. Or in a few other cases, Wechen suggested that the enclosed fields be reclaimed in Hunan, and repeatedly said that the area of the deep lake where the water is stored and the river channel where the flood is discharged must be left behind. However, once the population increases, there will inevitably be some gentry who do not care about the life or death of others, and wreak havoc on the surrounding fields, and the upstream rivers cannot be discharged, causing floods. If this happens, officials should boldly forcibly dig up these fields and turn them into lakes and rivers. As well as the onset of drought in the north, some gentry forcibly occupied lakes and rivers for irrigation, leaving other people without irrigation water. It is also necessary to forcibly dig up aqueducts and return water to the people. This is the first case, a fair price is given, and then there is no room for negotiation, and it must be agreed. ”

Several people nodded.

If it is a water conservancy road, no matter how greedy the people are, they will be looking for death.

"Secondly, I will talk about commercial land, the first part is the national commercial land, for example, some state-run offices and prisons, all under the world, are all royal land, and within the four seas, all are royal ministers. No matter which person's land is, it is actually the land under His Majesty, and even his people are all His Majesty's people. However, when it comes to commercial land, it is run by the imperial court, and it is mainly of a consultative nature. lest the officials do anything wrong under the banner of the imperial court. What is a fair price? It is mainly based on the local land transaction price, and the country is in the front. After the family, no one should be insatiable with the court. In fact, Song Jiu still has one thing that has not been said, that is, the occupation of the temple and Taoism, and he can't figure out Zhao Kuangyin's attitude towards religion, so he skips it directly.

"The third is private commercial land. Weichen first talked about values, in the eyes of Weichen, Dongshuimen Pass is a cornucopia, Henan is slightly worse, Hebei is the best. Even if the wharf and academy are all located in Hezhou, Hebei will not be worse than Hezhou. So how much is it worth in the eyes of Wechen? More than 2,000 yuan per acre of land, and it is still a 50-year management right, lease right, not a lifetime ownership. Of course, the nature is still different, the money is repaid to the court in fifty years, and there is an interest problem, but if Weichen is allowed to buy it, five hundred yuan per mu is not high. This is its value in the eyes of Wechen. ”

Zhao Pu ate a glass of wine. I'm depressed to death. The most depressed thing was that Liu Wensuo took it seriously, and muttered: "It seems that Li Li is asking for fifty yuan per mu, which is really not high." ”

"Liu Qing, listen to him."

"Weichen also said one thing, if Pan Lou is located in the river. Does it still have that business? Absolutely not. So how much is that piece of land worth? Invaluable! But if there is no Pan Lou, how much is it worth to grow vegetables on it? Pan Lou fulfilled the price of the land. That piece of land became Pan Lou again. The same is true of Hebei, which is priceless in the eyes of Wechen. The Land of Gold. But in Zhao Yanei's eyes, it is just ordinary commercial land. Let's be honest though. More than twenty dollars is indeed too little. Hezhou is only three projects, if all the projects are up in succession in the future, there will be more tourists, that is, ordinary commercial land, the price of one acre of land is not too much, and fifty dollars. At the beginning, I said to Zhao Yanei that if you buy land as soon as possible, don't think that 20 yuan is expensive, at that time, the land next to Baiyu Bridge was only 20 yuan per mu, and other land was at most more than 10 yuan per mu. If you pay 20 yuan, you can buy as much as you want. The reason is the same as Weichen's glaze, when I launched 20 pieces of glazed handicrafts, I only sold 20 to 50 yuan, and the result was fried into more than 1,000 yuan. Buyers actually think it's not expensive, but if they pay a hundred yuan this year, will they buy it? One pushes forward, the glaze changes from expensive to cheap, and the other pushes back, Hebei is getting more and more expensive from cheap, reversing the order, and the nature is the same. Zhao Yanei didn't listen to me. ”

Zhao Pu took another sip of stuffy wine, no matter what, this kid was indeed kind, and what he said at this time was also from his heart, and he couldn't have a seizure.

Zhao Kuangyi felt very funny in his heart.

"There is still a way, the people only know that it will be expensive, but it may not be expensive in their hands, and the net income of planting wheat per mu a year will not exceed 100 yuan. Planting mulberry on one acre of land will not exceed 500 yuan. Growing vegetables on an acre of land will not cost more than a penny. Unless you grow out-of-season vegetables, that's not good, and more people will grow in the next year, and then the income will drop. From this point of view, Zhao Yanei also gave a lot. Therefore, most people in Lijiazhuang are tempted. But if the person in charge doesn't do a good job and can't beat people, can that be done? But what about the other people who are willing to sell to persuade them? What about putting pressure on them? At that time, the pressure is not on the steward's side, but on Li Lizheng's side. It was he who hindered the good deeds of the folks! The same is true for employment. My open-air education, as well as the school, have benefited the people of Lianghe. He also promised them a better life in the future. So Hezhou hired workers, and they only needed a salary of 50 yuan a day, and they were very diligent. ”

"Zhao Yanei didn't see the front, only the middle, so he only gave fifty yuan a day's salary, and asked them to work like that in Hezhou, is it possible? Then Hezhou recruits, I also have to keep my promise, the salary is high, there are several reasons, this is the promise of Wechen, there are profits to keep up with the salary, and they are highly motivated, a little more tired, just a little more tired The results are even enough to recover their salary. It's a virtuous cycle of process. What about Zhao Yanei? Profits can't keep up, and salaries can't keep up. ”

"But things can be reversed. Let's talk about construction first, there is no need to level the land in Hebei, the amount of work is not large, why be stingy with salary, I will pay 50 Wen, Hebei will pay 60 Wen and 70 Wen, and the servants will have complaints and slack off? Another example is the employment in the future, there are servants to compare, and you can also ask them, people have been tired for a few years, the wind and rain come and go, don't ask about the frost and cold, how many years have you been tired for me? Hezhou is good, you go over, do you want it? ”

"I definitely won't ask for it, recruiting workers is also to be rewarded, and the people who are tired for me haven't been fully rewarded, how can I use them? It's really not good, you can let them go, for example, there are many victims in this disaster, only the salary can get by, and you can't recruit servants? Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty tried in vain to suppress the people by force, and as a result, he killed a group of people and raised a group of them. Therefore, the master said that virtue is the main thing, punishment is supplemented, grace is the main, power is supplemented, governance is the mainstay, and punishment is supplemented, which is the royal way to govern the country, and it is also the royal way to control the subordinates. Can forcible repression go unquestioned? It's a road sprinkled with gold, but if you want gold to come out, can you do it without thinking? ”

"Do you mean that Zhao Chengzong and they occupy the Golden Avenue, but they are operating brass, and their means are pig iron, which leads to serious errors in values, and these disputes occur?"

"Your Majesty is wise, and you can cover so many words of Weichen in one sentence."

These are all nice words, and the bad ones are that the heart is too dark and too greedy.

And Song Jiu faintly saw Zhao Kuangyi's figure from these contradictions, as long as Zhao Kuangyi intervened, Hebei would not want to live in peace.

The main reason is that the business philosophy is different, although the statement of Qi people may come from Zhao Pu, but in his eyes, everyone cannot be equal, including Zhao Chengzong and them, as well as the Ya Nei in his deed shares.

The problem in their own deed shares is not serious, they only have the right to dividends, not the right to operate, and they can't get involved, no matter what they think, it won't affect Hezhou. If a heavy tax is paid, there will be many ministers who will spontaneously maintain it for it. He "covers the sky with one hand" and is not taken advantage of. There will be many problems, but they are far less serious than in Hebei.

Zhao Pu sighed and said, "Your Majesty, go back and tell Zhao Chengzong to give up that land." ”

"Zhao Xianggong is wise, the state edict can be changed, depending on the situation, wear thick clothes in winter and thin clothes in summer. But you can't wear a robe in the morning and a skirt in the afternoon, that is not according to the seasonal changes, but will make people scold neurotics. This is especially true of the country, the Tang Dynasty was seriously annexed, and the tribes were extremely miserable, so our dynasty said that the Qi people gave the tenant farmers a high right of freedom, such as the right to quit the tenants, such as the right to personal security, such as the law to be as fair as possible. This practice is very good, Huang Chao rebelled, the world was in chaos, and nine out of nine of his subordinates were tribunes. When it is fair, the people will not resent. In the middle of this is the landlord's right to buy and sell the land freely. Whether it's right or wrong, it's going to be executed when it's released. This is the third article that Weichen wants to say, private commercial land, this is a private person, not the imperial court, not a private land within the four seas, can be bought and sold, can be persuaded if the negotiation is not good, can be coaxed, absolutely can not be strong oppression, no matter what the other party is, even if a piece of money shouts out a thousand yuan. If you can't talk about it, you can't persuade it, you can only give up, this is the criterion! It doesn't matter if you don't stand up, you must do it! Therefore, Shang Ying's change of law, standing wood bounty, words must be done, and standing must be done! (To be continued......)
