"Listen to what you mean, sooner or later, the Tang King will be reused and take control of the government?" Lin Jiu opened his mouth and said, "Think about it, it's really possible, no matter what, the emperor and the king of Tang are brothers, and it is natural to reconcile after the fight." ”

Chu Linghui said with a straight face: "The Son of Heaven takes the world as his home, how can he tolerate personal feelings? ”

Lin Jiu waved his hand and said: "I'm just talking about it as ordinary, after all, the emperor is also a human being, and now that he is a new treasure, the ministers of the court have their own ghosts, he naturally wants to cultivate people he can trust, so as not to be set aside by the courtiers." ”

While speaking, Lin Jiu looked at Chu Linghui from the corner of his eye, his face became more and more heavy, and Lin Jiu couldn't help but shake his head in his heart.

This remark was actually copied by Lin Jiu from Lu Xiucai, although Lu Xiucai had no intention of officialdom, he would still understand the current affairs to help Lin Jiu formulate strategies.

Just like the completion of this academy, there is a part of Lu Xiucai's proposal. When the new emperor ascends the throne, he must use people from the family, and the poor will be suppressed, and he can build academies to gather talents and influence the world.

For Lu Xiucai, the harmony between politics and business can really make Lin Jiu a big businessman beyond this era, which reminds Lin Jiu of the cattle in the ancient history of that world.

Having said that, the emperor is facing a big court, and Chu Linghui, who is controlled everywhere at this time, is not facing his own small court.

They are faced with the same situation, if they don't use the wealthy family, there will be no one to use, and if they do, then they can only hand over their power.

"What you say is not wrong, but there are no two days on this day, there are no two lords in the country, and two people with the atmosphere of a king are in the same dynasty, which can only make the world chaotic." Chu Linghui looked sullen.

He was even wondering if he was still the same Chu Shilang if he left one of these two things to someone else to do, whether he was still the same Chu Shilang now.

Looking at Chu Lingxuan's sullen appearance, Lin Jiu filled his wine glass with it, "You, in fact, you don't have to look too far, although the emperor asked you to keep the status quo, people are usually willing to judge by results, if you feel that you have done the right thing, then you must be firm." ”

Chu Linghui drank all the wine in the cup, his eyes were blurred, and he seemed to be a little drunk. Looking at her quietly, her eyes, which seemed to be as deep as the starry sky, made Lin Jiu subconsciously look away, not daring to look at her.

"If the Zhenbei General's Mansion asks you for a marriage with a respectful position, what will happen to you?" Chu Linghui suddenly spoke, causing the originally somewhat ambiguous atmosphere to dissipate in an instant.

Lin Jiu couldn't cry or laugh at this time, how could this person suddenly get involved in such a thing as a national affair to a child's private affairs, and the span in the middle was too big. But he suddenly remembered Yin Zidu, and his heart moved, could it be ......

Seeing that Lin Jiu's eyes gradually changed when he looked at him, Chu Linghui raised the empty wine glass and covered his face with his sleeves, "Yin Zi is my friend, I just asked on his behalf." ”

Lin Jiu said with a smile: "If that's the case, don't say it's the General's Mansion, even if I make me a concubine, I don't want to, have you ever seen me attached to others?" ”

"That's right!" Chu Linghui put down the wine glass and smiled, the Lin Jiu she knew seemed to have a kind of meaning of only respecting talent and virtue and not respecting status, and the Zhenbei General's Mansion couldn't bluff her.

"Feeling good?" Lin Jiu looked at Chu Linghui a little speechlessly, this ability to beat around the bush is really practiced to the extreme, how good it is to go straight, saving so much energy to guess.

Chu Linghui coughed dryly twice, and said with a solemn face: "I have to say that the situation we are facing is not optimistic, I have decided to cancel the city gate tax, market tax and other various tax items, and change the city tax to ten taxes." ”

Seeing that Chu Linghui was down to business, Lin Jiu also restrained his smile, "Actually, the current taxes in Yunzhou are not based on the number of items collected, but on the heads of those big families, in my opinion, those taxes are set up for ordinary people." ”

When Lin Jiu finished saying this, he saw Chu Linghui looking at him quietly, and Lin Jiu remembered that he seemed to be classified as a privileged class now.

When it came to his wallet, Lin Jiu looked at Chu Linghui with a wary expression, "Now I still owe Mrs. Jin money, don't you want to take a cent out of my pocket." ”

Looking at Lin Jiu's miser's appearance, Chu Linghui felt a sense of pleasure in his heart to win back a city.

After reining in his mood, Chu Linghui opened his mouth and said: "I have already checked when I came, and some of the taxes you have been exempted have fallen on this academy, and I can use a piece of paper to attribute thirty percent of this Yungong Academy to the government." "I read books

"Public-private partnerships?" Lin Jiu was surprised, this Chu Linghui's mind is becoming more and more open-minded now, at this time, what is important is the distinction between public and private, she is very skeptical that Chu Linghui will be poked in the backbone if she does this.

If this academy can really reach the level that the world's poor people are flocking to, it is tantamount to being a sibling in the broken family.

Chu Linghui thought that Lin Jiu was afraid that the academy would lose its autonomy, so he said: "Don't worry, the government will only appoint a vice president, only give opinions, and will not participate in the management of the academy, you are still the master of Yungong Academy, and this first one is Mr. Lu Yilu." ”

Lin Jiuhu looked at Chu Linghui suspiciously, "In that case, Mr. Lu is equivalent to having an official body, and you can call him at will, you are really thinking far away." ”

Chu Linghui said with a smile: "You also know that there are almost no available people under my subordinates, and if a great talent like Mr. Lu can only write books and educate people, it is really too wasteful." ”

"You and Mr. Lu talk about this, whether you agree or not is completely up to him, and I am just an employment relationship with him."

Chu Linghui nodded and said: "I believe he will definitely agree, a person who cares about the world, I don't think he will be willing to take a corner of peace." ”

With these words, Lin Jiu always felt that Chu Linghui was talking about himself. However, Chu Linghui has something that Lin Jiu still approves, in the conversation with Lu Xiucai, she has deeply felt that she is talented, such a person nests in one place all day long, it is indeed a waste.

"Then the tax you should pay will be implemented, with you as a big merchant taking the lead, I believe that other people will not resist this tax method in the open, after all, on the bright side, this is a tax reduction policy, which is beneficial to everyone."

After saying this, Chu Linghui got up, and the depressed aura seemed to dissipate a lot, and he regained his spirits.

"By the way, there is one more thing, Yin Zi is drunk in Qingfeng Building, I have already asked people to take him to live with me, you can also worry less."

Listening to Chu Lingxuan's words, Lin Jiu couldn't help but roll his eyes at him secretly, "Lord Chu, it's good that you're happy!" ”

Chu Linghui left, Lin Jiu went to Lu Xiucai's scholarly academy, at this time the lights in the academy were already on, according to Lin Jiu's request, Lu Xiucai was compiling textbooks for children to learn.

Lu Xiucai is a person with both talent and morality, as long as it is not an over-the-top thing, as long as it is handed over to him, Lin Jiu can be a hands-off shopkeeper.

Lin Jiu came to the door of the study and knocked on the door, and Lu Xiucai answered: "Xiaohong, you can go and rest, I don't have to serve here." ”

Xiaohong is a service girl that Ye Sanniang found for Lu Xiucai, except for some things, Lu Xiucai can't refuse Ye Sanniang's kindness.

"Sir, it's me!" Lin Jiu said.

Lu Xiucai hurriedly opened the door and welcomed Lin Jiu into the house, but the door was not closed.

After pouring a cup of strong tea for Lin Jiu, Lu Xiucai asked, "It's all this hour, Boss Lin, you haven't rested yet, what's the trouble?" ”

Lin Jiu smiled: "It's not that I'm worried, it's about Lord Chu." ”

Then Lin Jiu told Lu Xiucai what Chu Linghui had told her about taxes and the academy, and then asked, "How about Lord Chu's proposal to make you the vice president of the academy?" ”

"It's the best of both worlds, but once the government is implicated, then your plan's plan will be hindered."

Lin Jiu waved his hand and said: "Don't make me look like I'm going to rebel and become an empress, in the final analysis, I just want to make money in a place where people can feel at ease." ”

"But Lu Mou thinks that Boss Lin, you are a person who has the world in mind, although you are not a hero, you should also think about seeking the well-being of all the people in the world."

"Well, that seems like a big goal for me." Lin Jiu looked at Lu Xiucai, who was in a state of frenzy, speechlessly.
