When Lu Duanzheng lamented that his son had no eyes, Li Cong talked about Yan Yan's remarks about business.

"I ask you, what do you think is the purpose of doing business?" Li Cong sold a pass first.

"When you go back to the emperor, you naturally make money." Wen Wenshan was the first to stand up.

He is the left minister in charge of Shangshu Province, quite a Shangshu order, with six departments, and is the head of the hundred officials of the prime minister's hundred politics, so it is taken for granted that he is the most qualified to answer this question.

"Still have a different opinion?" Li Cong looked at the officials in the main hall and asked.

"Go back to the emperor, let the treasury be full, and let the people live a good life." Wang Shixiu added two points.

He was the right minister in charge of Zhongshu Province, equivalent to Zhongshu Ling, responsible for drafting the emperor's edicts and edicts, so he knew more about taxes, and the taxes of merchants in this dynasty were heavier.

"Well, it's a little interesting, that girl and Wang Xiang's thoughts are very similar, but this time she is not as lofty as you said, she said that doing business is also equivalent to doing good deeds, and it is also a meritorious deed."

"Back to the emperor, please forgive the ministers for being stupid, since ancient times, how can there be businessmen who do not pursue profits, both profit-seeking, and where do they accumulate virtue and do good?" These words were asked by Song Ye, Marquis of Zhenbei.

"That's right, otherwise how can you call no business and no traitor? Those businessmen are not abducted for a little profit? "This time it was Dong Weibin, the secretary of the Criminal Department, who spoke.

He often received cases from businessmen, all of whom were about cheating and abduction, so he did not have a good impression of businessmen.

"It is precisely because these businessmen have brought bad social atmosphere as soon as they have money, so now there are fewer and fewer people who can farm in the countryside with peace of mind, resulting in more and more displaced people near the capital." This time it was Jingzhao Yin Lu Chun who spoke.

"But if there are no merchants, the taxes of the household department cannot be collected, how can they support the entire Great Zhou?" Household Shangshu Shi Cunyu asked.

"There is some truth in what you say, but it is too one-sided. For example, she wants to open a pastry shop, on the one hand, to make money, and on the other hand, to do good. Because doing business requires hiring people, and hiring people is equivalent to supporting others, isn't it a good thing to feed others? Especially for families who do not have any income, this meager income is even more important. ”

"Back to the emperor, it's just a drop in the bucket, if it's really for good deeds, why not give money directly to the other party? Why do you have to open a shop, to put it bluntly, isn't it still to make money? Pingxi Hou Zhu Jin received Lu Duan's signal and stood up.

"It's different, as the old saying goes, it's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish." Menno stepped forward and retorted.

"Yes, yes, it is this that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, and it is not a long-term solution to do good by giving alms, it is better to teach them a way to survive." Yan Peng saw that Meng Nuo stood up, and he also stood up.

The emperor has named the Yan family, what else does he avoid?

"Your Majesty, the ministers would like to hear the details, isn't Miss Yan planning to teach others how to make pastries?" Zhu Jin was refuted, Zhengjue had no face, and after hearing this, he stood up again.

Although he had never eaten the pastry, he had also heard that the pastry was not ordinary soft and delicious, just imagine, the taste of the dim sum that could be praised by the Queen Mother and several eldest princesses could be bad?

"No, Miss Yan said that a lot of eggs are used to make pastries, so she plans to buy barren mountains and hire people to raise chickens, so that they can feed some people. For this reason, she begged the Queen Mother to write her a plaque of Mobao, saying that she hoped that business would flourish, so that she could earn more money to feed more people. By the way, she also said that she would build a Zhuangzi in Datong to take in some widows and loneliness. Prince Li Ji replied.

"Emperor Qiqi, His Royal Highness the Prince Qiyu, this is the same as what Weichen said can make the people live a good life, but Weichen didn't expect that Miss Yan would have this cultivation at such a young age, which is really gratifying." Wang Shixiu replied.

"Yes, this time in the mountain practice, this child really suffered a little, every day with the masters to work in the field, but also contact some poor people, this is the feeling, I want to use the spare money in my hand to help these poor people improve their living conditions, as for which step can be done, she also said that she will not regret doing her best. Speaking of which, Zhen Guogong, Yan'er's child has another sentence, I think I can encourage you, she said that although she suffered some setbacks and grievances a few days ago, she is still grateful in general, because she understands the preciousness of family affection and the difficulty of life, so she will cherish everything she has. After Li Cong finished speaking, he took a special look at Lu Duan, who was standing under the stage.

Lu Duan saw that the emperor called him by name, so he had to stand up, "Your Majesty, the dog has wronged Miss Yan, and after these things, the dog has also promised the minister that he will treat and cherish Miss Yan well, and will not let her suffer any more grievances." ”

"That's good, I hope your Lu family can keep your promise. I have said that I and Peng Cheng are like brothers, and his daughter is like my daughter. Li Cong specially pointed out "Lu Jia" instead of "Lu You", and the intention is self-evident.

"The Ministers will obey the Holy Decree." Lu Duan knelt down.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Li Cong changed the topic and talked about the drought in the northwest.

These have nothing to do with Yan Yan, so Yan Peng also stopped talking.

"Are you saying that the emperor admonished the Lu family in the court again?" Ma took a breath and asked.

"No, the emperor is probably worried that Yan'er will be looked down upon by the Lu family when he marries, so he specially put forward a warning." Yan Peng didn't realize that something was wrong with his wife.

But Yan Yan found that a trace of worry flashed on Ma's face again, and when Ma saw Yan Yan looking at her, he hurriedly smiled, "Child, I'm worried that things will be reversed, and the emperor will support you again and again, but where is the matter of the inner house that outsiders can reach out?" ”

"Since my aunt has said this, I have remembered one thing, how did you talk about the separation of the family?" Yan Yan asked.

Things have developed to this point, and she is afraid that she will not have a good life if she is not separated.

"Mrs. Lu is willing for you to stay in the Lu family, saying that she will separate you as soon as you get married, and the people outside don't know and think that she can't tolerate this concubine, and besides, the Lu family has these two sons, and the old lady doesn't want to watch you go out, but she said, if you really feel inconvenient, you can move out for a few days to relax, but you must go back to the Lu family during the New Year."

"That's as it should be, it's the rule." Yan Peng nodded.

Yan Yan listened to it and didn't refute it again.
