Chapter 105: Are You Really Mingyue?
Yan Shisan also came over curiously, "How did you build such a courtyard on this mountain?" ”
Mingyue glanced at Yan Shisan, "Homeless, you can only come to live on Daliang Mountain, where no one dares to come, because to build a house here, you don't need to buy land, you don't need to be approved by the government, how can a young master like you who is not short of money understand the hardships of these poor people's lives, you still dislike our poor food, do you know, in the surrounding villages where we are, I don't know how many families eat corn paste with wild vegetables when they are green and yellow, and even food and clothing cannot be guaranteed, where can I eat white flour steamed buns, and meat is even more luxurious." ”
Yan Shisan looked at Mingyue and said in disbelief, "So poor? Yan Jiu on the side also heard the conversation between the two, and waited for Mingyue's answer at this time.
But this time it was not Mingyue who answered, but Li Yun said lightly, "It's so poor, at this time, the corn cob is still green, and many people who haven't eaten at home have begun to break the corn paste, and the potatoes in the field are supposed to be harvested at this time, but they have already dug up almost early when there is an urgent shortage of food, and when they wait until the rest of the point, most of them are taken to pay taxes, and the rest of the grain will not survive next year's autumn harvest, so this vicious circle will continue." ”
"So you can't eat enough all the time?" Yan Shisan asked.
Li Yun and Mingyue both nodded at the same time.
Yan Jiu sighed, "I didn't expect that the people of Dayan are living in such a hot and aquatic situation. ”
Yan Shisan said, "If the imperial court can reduce or reduce taxes, will it be solved?" When Yan Shisan said this, he looked at Yan Jiu and said it, but Yan Jiu didn't answer and fell into deep thought.
Mingyue answered at this time, "It shouldn't be able to solve the problem, first of all, we must consider that if the tax is reduced, will it affect Dayan, the treasury is sufficient to ensure the country's prosperity and strength, and resist the invasion of surrounding powers, if it is rashly reduced or exempted because of the difficult life of the people, resulting in an empty treasury and a weakening of the country's strength, it may bring another greater disaster to the people." ”
Mingyue didn't pay attention to the shocking words that her words brought to everyone, and she was still carefully digging the pit under her feet as she spoke.
Yan Jiu on the side saw that Mingyue didn't say anything, so he continued to ask, "Is there any way to solve this problem?" ”
Listening to Yan Jiu's questioning, Mingyue continued, "As far as I know, our Dayan is taxed according to capitation, which is unreasonable, and it should be taxed according to the land area. For example, two families, all the land area is the same, some families have fewer children, a family has four or five people, and some families have more children, a family of old and young adds up to a dozen or even dozens of people, you say, people do not have more land because of the large population, this is taxed according to the capitation, the family with a large population must not go hungry? Another example is the landlord's family, hundreds of thousands of land, according to the head of the family to collect taxes, how much can you pay? However, the rent collected by the landlord from the tenants was much higher than the tax collected by the government. There is another important point, that is, the output of agricultural products in our fields is too low, and the imperial court should pay attention to this aspect and invest in research to increase grain production. ”
Everyone was silent, still thinking about what Mingyue had just said, Mingyue raised her body and wiped the sweat on her forehead, seeing that everyone was stunned in place, and she didn't work in her hands, she said loudly, "Why are you all stunned?" ”
Yan Jiu came back to his senses the fastest, looked at Mingyue, but didn't know how to express it, silently lowered his head to work, but his heart was overturned, sighing, what kind of woman did this Li Yun marry!
Yan Shisan continued to ask with a glare, "Sister-in-law knows a lot, but how to increase grain production?" ”
Mingyue glanced at Yan Thirteen, "How do I know, I want to know how to increase grain production, and the surrounding villagers will still starve?" Didn't the imperial court have a special ministry of industry and agriculture, this is what they should do. ”
Seeing that Yan Shisan was so interested, Mingyue glanced at him with a little meaning, and continued, "In fact, if you want to enhance the strength of the country, not only should you pay attention to agriculture, but also industry and commerce need to go hand in hand, industry and commerce are integrated, and the development of commerce is too restricted, which leads to the development of handicraft industry as a provider of industrial and commercial commodities has also been affected, and the chain reaction is not profitable, neither businessmen nor handicraft producers will invest in technological research and exploration, resulting in technological backwardness, This also has a significant impact on the strengthening of individual countries. ”
Yan Shisan shook his head in a fog when he heard this, "I don't understand." ”
Mingyue stood up and patted Yan Shisan's shoulder on the side, "So, child, read more books, knowledge changes fate." ”
Yan Shisan frowned and patted Mingyue's hand, "I read a lot more books than you, why haven't I seen what you said in the books, why don't you find the book you read and show it to me?" ”
Yan Jiu also looked at Mingyue expectantly at this time.
Mingyue shook her head, "These books are not written, but these are the opinions I summarized after reading the book and understanding and analyzing it myself." After speaking, Mingyue lowered her head weakly and stuck out her tongue.
Yan Jiu looked at Mingyue expectantly, "But do you have time to tell me more about it?" ”
Mingyue looked at Yan Jiu, and then at Li Yun, "Is it okay?" ”
Seeing Li Yun nodded, Mingyue turned her head to look at Yan Jiu, "Yes, but do you have to work hard first?" ”
And Li Yun was even more shocked than Yan Jiu at this time, he had to suspect that he had married a fake Mingyue from time to time, no matter how smart he was, a person who couldn't even read a word had such a unique view on the politics of governance, which really made him a little unbelievable.
After that, Yan Jiu and Yan Shisan both changed their attitudes towards Mingyue, this Mingyue gave them too many surprises, Yan Jiu even felt that Li Yun had really picked up a treasure, but Li Yun had been silent.
It was only when it was time to sleep at night that Li Yun spoke softly in the dark, "Are you really Mingyue?" ”
Mingyue, who had closed her eyes and was about to sleep, suddenly opened her eyes in the dark and didn't open her mouth for a while.
The person next to him suddenly became nervous, which made Li Yun say in surprise, "You are really not Mingyue?" ”
Mingyue relaxed and sighed, "I'm not Mingyue, who could it be?" ”
Li Yun listened to Mingyue's words, and fell silent for a while, yes, who would she be if she wasn't Mingyue, Mingyue, who was born and raised in a foreign mountain village, how could there be a mistake?
After being silent for a while, Li Yun asked again, "I never asked you, why are you so obsessed with marrying me?" Is it because of curiosity about my legs? ”
Mingyue shook her head in the dark, and finally spit out the secret she had been hiding in her heart, "Did I recognize the wrong person, I recognized you as the person in my dream?" ”
Li Yun's voice was full of doubt, "People in dreams? ”
Mingyue hummed softly, "After marrying you, I realized that you are not him, but you look exactly the same, and I can't tell you the same; After marrying you, it also made me understand that a dream is just a dream after all, and that person cannot appear again. ”
Li Yun listened to it in a fog, but he understood that Mingyue married him, but he didn't want to marry him.
Li Yun thought about it carefully, after Mingyue married herself, she called herself Xianggong at the beginning, but after making an awkward fuss, she never called herself Xianggong again, and it was always Li Yun Li Yun who screamed, because she knew that she was not the person in her dream?
Li Yun was very curious, what kind of dream would make Mingyue so unforgettable? And such a real person as himself is better than such a person who appears in a dream? I don't know why, I feel a little empty.
Li Yun sighed lightly and said lightly, "Since it's not the person you want to marry, why don't you leave when I let you go?" ”
Mingyue replied softly, "When you wake up from a dream, life always has to go on, since the person you want to marry doesn't exist, who is not the same to marry?" It is better to marry someone else, so it is better to follow you. Just sorry for wronging you. ”
Li Yun chuckled, "If you don't have someone you want to marry, who is not to marry?" And you're so dedicated to treating my leg, you don't have to say I'm sorry. ”
It was the first time that Mingyue had heard Li Yun laugh, but listening to this laughter, it seemed to reveal a bleak taste.
Mingyue suddenly unconsciously leaned her head on Li Yun's shoulder beside her, "That's the case, let's live a good life, if you want to leave one day, tell me, I won't stop you, or the day after tomorrow, don't ......"
Li Yun turned around suddenly, and accurately used his lips in the dark to block Mingyue's unfinished mouth, he didn't want to continue talking to Mingyue at all, but even he didn't know, how could he do this, he felt that his heart was beating so fast, he felt that his face was also feverish, and the warm temperature from his lips, and the soft touch, made him hold his breath.
Li Yun's sudden movement made Mingyue blush from stunned to nervous, and felt that her heart had jumped to her throat, and she didn't dare to breathe, and both of them held their breath like this, and their lips pressed against their lips.
Li Yun finally came back to his senses first, turned around and lay back on the bed, held his breath for a long time, the two gasped and breathed in the air, except for the wheezing of the two, there was no other sound in the air, and they fell into an awkward silence for a while.
After both of them calmed down, it was Li Yun who finally broke the silence and said softly, "Sleep." ”
Mingyue hummed softly and closed her eyes, but at this time, both of them were churning in their hearts, how could they fall asleep.
Li Yun was annoyed in his heart, why did he do such a frivolous thing to Mingyue, but he didn't seem to have any signs of regret. And Mingyue was wondering, why did Li Yun suddenly do this to herself?
