In short, no matter what, this holy decree is the most comfortable and satisfying for Zhao Guangyi.

Zhao Pu can't say whether he should be happy or regretful, or full of contradictions.

In short, I only hope that Zhao Ting can do this errand well and then marry his daughter, which is the best of both worlds.

Zhao Ting doesn't care, he has always been the emperor's brother who asks him to do whatever he wants. I never ask why, and I don't say I can't help.

calmly accepted the order, ignoring the eyes of the ministers looking at him.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, he left the palace as usual and went directly to Yunfu.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Xingbo greeted him with a smile and said, "His Royal Highness King Wei, the county lord is waiting in the garden!"

There was some surprise, and he strode anxiously to the back garden.

As soon as I entered the garden, I saw Yun Moxi sitting in the pavilion from a distance, making tea on the stone table.

Walked over and sat down across from her.

Yun Moxi smiled and handed over a cup of tea, "Your Highness has worked hard, drink a cup of tea first." ”

"How can you be kind to me today!" It was a little surprising to see that she was not cold.

"So it's disrespectful to say that weekdays are the end?"

"Of course, it's nice to see you smiling." The flowers are full of flowers and the fragrance is pleasant, and it is really a joy of life to have her to accompany her to taste tea in such a scene.

I took a sip of tea, I don't know if it was because of her good mood or her good tea-making skills, but I felt that it was very fragrant.

Putting down the teacup, I couldn't help but tease, "How long has it been since I have been kind to me!" It's rare to drink your cup of tea today, and I'm so moved that I almost cry. ”

She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your Highness is getting better and better at laughing, isn't this at the end of the arrangement?" ”

"If you laugh like this, you should laugh more." Stared at her, reluctant to look away.

"Since Your Highness has ordered this, of course you should smile more in the future."

"You used to be cheerful, but you only became indifferent and silent after you came back from the Northern Han Dynasty."

She looked at the garden and diverted the topic, "Your Highness got an errand sent by His Majesty today?" ”

"Yes! It seems that nothing can be hidden from you. ”

"It's a tricky thing to do, and it's thankless."

"If you send someone else, you don't have to send it to me." He disagreed.

"What's more, the royal brother said that you will do this together, as long as I can stay with you, I will gladly accept whatever I do."

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin summoned Zhao Ting alone, and the two brothers did not mention the matter of marriage again, and they knew that no one could convince anyone, so they had to temporarily solve the dilemma of the court in front of them.

Yun Moxi ignored his blazing eyes and took a sip of tea indifferently, "That's why I'm waiting here for His Highness to discuss together." ”

"I don't know what to do about it. They are all relatives of the emperor, or the founding fathers and meritorious ministers, all of whom cannot be moved easily. ”

"Your Highness is worried about offending people?"

"It's not that I'm worried about offending these people, I'm just worried that if my hands are too heavy, the imperial brother will not be able to appease them. Accustomed to having a good time on the battlefield, it's really a headache to grind hard with these people. ”

"So Your Highness is planning to use force?"

He muttered: "As long as the imperial brother sees the tax money in the treasury, there is only any method that will not interfere and restrict." But I don't have much contact with these people, so I may not be able to turn them in obediently if I come to persuade them directly...... As a last resort, I have to use force. ”

"If this matter is strong, I am afraid it is not advisable, the beginning of the Great Song Dynasty is in ruins, these people have a deep foundation and can command one party, and there are more than 10 million people behind them. What's more, if you use strength, although you can get results, it will make Your Highness the target of public criticism. Yun Moxi analyzed.

"What do you think should be done?" He inquired sincerely, knowing that she had always been clever and resourceful.

"Since you can't use coercion, then you can lure you with profit."

"Elixir temptation?"

She nodded, "Not only do they have to pay the taxes they owe, but they also have to willingly take out the surplus food and silver to ensure victory in this war." ”

looked at her in a daze, really didn't understand what it meant, "How to do it?" ”

"Heavy profits. promised that if the Northern Han Dynasty was destroyed in the future, the excess silver grain they paid would be refunded at double the rate, and those who invested more could also be rewarded with land in the future. ”

"What if they still won't?"

"That is the second option: forcible expropriation. The tax and silver shall be paid within the time limit, and those who fail to meet the deadline shall be strictly dealt with according to the law. If you don't want to go to jail, you can use the land as collateral. ”

"So no matter what you choose, you have to turn it in in the end."

"Yes! In this way, it is difficult for them to make excuses, after all, there are heavy promises. Now that these people are united and united, some people are bound to be shaken under the heavy profit. Once divided into two factions, even if they are forcibly expropriated by force, it will be impossible to stir up big waves. ”

Hearing this, he was surprised and delighted, and laughed: "Sure enough, it's still smart!" Immediately relieved the problem in my heart, no wonder the imperial brother sent you to help. ”

Yun Moxi poured him full of tea and said with a smile: "Moxi is a businessman, so he naturally knows a little about these mercenary people." ”

"Then we'll take care of this tomorrow!" He said excitedly that he would naturally be more motivated if he had a way.

The two discussed the details and how to implement it.

After a few days, all over the country, from the streets and alleys of the capital and various localities, posted documents calling for tax payment.

For a time, the whole country was shaken.

Not only the wealthy families, but even the ordinary people also talked about it.

As long as the tax and silver are paid, they can voluntarily pay the excess silver or grain according to the official documents. When the Northern Han treasury is abundant in the future, the imperial court can double it.

There is no limit to the time and amount of excess money and grain to be handed over, even if the war is not over, as long as it is three years, if you are in urgent need, you can also take the IOU issued by the imperial court in advance to the local government to retrieve the amount of silver and grain, and you can also get corresponding compensation.

However, those who still owe the tax due within the time limit will be severely punished.

In particular, the people feel that it is good, they do not owe taxes to the government in the first place, and now as long as they have a surplus of money and grain, they can take it out and lend it to the imperial court, and there will be a good return in the future.

The results have been achieved one after another, and the number of people who are willing to take out the excess money and food for investment has also increased.

The rich people in various places who did not have much background did not dare to default, and they paid taxes one after another, and tried to lend some excess money to the imperial court.

After all, the premise of the imperial court is only the success of the Northern Expedition, and the people are full of confidence and expectation for the success of the Northern Expedition.

Today's Great Song Dynasty is different from previous years, it has unified most of the world, and the people are rich and happy, and they are full of confidence in the court and the emperor.

It is everyone's confidence that this battle will be won, so I won't feel that I can't get it back for this loan.

Only the leading wealthy families in the capital have not moved.

After all, they have more than half of the country's land on hand, and they have been in arrears for several years.

What's more, if these people are willing to turn in easily, they will not accumulate for so many years.

There was no movement when the announcement documents were issued, and Zhao Ting looked at the payment situation sent by his subordinates to various places was not bad, and the seven seven eight eight had been collected. In addition to the tax bank, the additional funds raised from various places are even more gratifying.

I was happy to see it, and handed the account book in my hand to Yun Moxi on the side.
