Although all the opportunities were given by King Yan, she couldn't completely compromise on the salt tax.

"Yandi's conscription is a small matter, and it is understandable." Ren Xiaoyao fully showed the sleekness of a businessman, looked at Song Liangchen, and smiled brightly: "But instead of slowly collecting taxes, it is better to do this, the prince will raise the salt tax outside Guancheng by two points, and what about Guancheng, the small one will hand over 100,000 snowflakes of silver every year, what do you think?" ”

100,000 snowflakes of silver!

Shen Meijing gasped, this is too big, although they earn a lot now, but they don't add up to 50,000 taels, do they have to pay 100,000 yuan every year?

Ren Xiaoyao is a very smart businessman, and naturally has his own reasons for doing so. I looked down and thought about it, but the beautiful scenery was silent for the time being.

The salt tax of two points is actually about 70,000 taels of silver more a year, and when the business is good, it may also be 100,000 yuan...... No matter how much the profit of salt transportation in Guancheng increases in the future, the tax paid will not increase, and it will always be 100,000 taels a year.

When you think about it, it seems that it is indeed much more cost-effective than raising taxes.

She thought clearly, Song Liangchen naturally understood it even more, and immediately glanced at Ren Xiaoyao deeply and was silent.

Ren Xiaoyao stood straight, neither humble nor arrogant, his eyes were full of sincerity, and when he saw that King Yan didn't speak, he didn't say much, so he waited for him with his hands.

After a long time, Song Liangchen spoke: "120,000." ”

The eyebrows jumped slightly, Ren Xiaoyao gritted his teeth and nodded stiffly: "Okay!" ”

120,000 should be, the pressure is a bit big, right? The beautiful scenery was staggering, and when she followed Ren Xiaoyao out, she couldn't help but ask her: "Won't you really lose money like this?" ”

"No, the salt merchants in the capital, there are a lot of people who have thrown millions of silver to the imperial court, we are just getting started, and it can be regarded as a small knock. Lord Yan is an understanding person, and he can't ask for too much good under him, so it's better to be generous and find a way in the future. ”

Meijing nodded, it was taught. Ren Xiaoyao knows a lot of things, and she has never been stingy, she will know some if she says something, and she can roughly guess Song Liangchen's thoughts.

The salt tax does not rise, the price of salt is in their hands, and the price of salt is raised in other places, and they follow suit, making more profits, and more than 20,000 yuan a year is not a big problem, and there are many articles that can be done.

After settling down, Meijing continued to go back to the yard to take the children.

Two days after Xu Zipei entered Beijing, Yongning came to Guancheng and wanted to see Lord Yan. At that time, Song Liangchen was holding the small group with his eyes open, and he didn't raise his head when he heard the words: "Place the princess in the guest courtyard and arrest Zhang Zhao into the dungeon." ”

Yushu responded and left.

Meijing looked at him curiously: "Does the prince really plan to abandon Princess Yongning?" ”

In the end, it is a woman who has her back to the court, if she gives it up, will she fall into Song Liangye's arms?

Hearing this, Song Liangchen raised his head and looked at her helplessly: "If you are reluctant, you have to give up." ”

Not to mention that there are many troubles for women, Yongning occupies the position of the concubine.

His heart sank slightly, and Shen Meijing could probably understand what he was thinking, don't open her eyes, a little melancholy.

If only she hadn't heard Mo Sang say so many messy words about the equality of men and women, maybe she could be a little generous, just be a little side concubine, as long as she could stay by his side, that would definitely save him so much trouble, and it would be more touching.

However, she was born into such a paranoid person as she is now, and she has more money and confidence, so she has to stand by his side, rather than being under others, and begging for a living by reaching out.

In fact, it looks quite annoying, if you want to be the wife of a big family, what are you doing so stingy, you can't even tolerate other women, can't you say with a smile, "It's good if the prince is happy"? No matter how many women there are, as long as Song Liangchen has her in his heart, wouldn't it? That's all the good for everyone.

Well, she understands the truth, but she knows that she can't do it, so she doesn't have to embarrass herself.

Lowering his eyes and hugging the sky, the beautiful scenery walked around the room while patting, and he didn't look at Song Liangchen's eyes again.

The fledgling Song Daying didn't notice Meijing's emotions, he had already begun to count on his fingers, how long would it be before the emperor knew the truth.

Locked up Zhang Zhao, Yongning was honest in an instant, and he didn't cry in the palace anymore, but only sent people to Song Liangchen over and over again, asking him to release Zhang Zhao.

Song Liangchen ignored it, and only occasionally asked people to take Yongning to see Zhang Zhao, which was considered a grace.

When the small group in the swaddling clothes seemed to be a little bigger, the spring outside was already strong, and something terrible happened in the capital.

The champion of last year's autumn test was originally matched by Xu's family to go to Beijing to beat the drum and voice grievances, and bluntly said that the princess Yongning of the dynasty hooked up with her husband and corrupted the style of King Yan, and she was shameless.

Although the drum struck, the Xu family was immediately imprisoned and tortured to the point that they were inhuman, but the news of Princess Yongning climbing the wall spread throughout the capital in an instant for some reason, so that it alarmed the queen of the dynasty.

The emperor was furious and was about to punish those who talked nonsense, but suddenly received an urgent letter from King Yan for 800 miles.

"The minister is guilty, he has not had a round room with the princess for half a year, but he has to go to the sky to hang the curtain, the princess has a dream, it has been more than a month, the minister is happy, I don't know how to be good, please make it clear to the emperor."

The emperor's face was extremely wonderful, and he pinched the letter, and his expression was extremely complicated.

It is pure nonsense to get a child in a dream, and King Yan also knows in his heart that his head is glowing with green light, and writing such a letter is to save enough face for the emperor to deal with.

Everyone has endured this, what else can he say? The emperor sighed heavily, and after thinking about it for two days, he sent someone to Yandi to pick up Princess Yongning, and rewarded King Yan with a large pile of gold, silver and jewels to appease.

Yongning never thought that she would be pregnant, she was immediately happy and sad, seeing General Chang who came to pick up people, she didn't say much, she left Yandi and went back to be a princess again, she was very happy, at least she could stay with Zhang Zhao again.

But what she didn't expect was still to come, Zhang Zhao did follow her into the palace, but he walked to the clean room. By the time she found out, it was too late.

Song Liangchen didn't say these things to Meijing, because it was disgusting, and now that the days are calm and beautiful, naturally there is no need to mention others.

"Brocade."

Taking advantage of the beautiful scenery, Song Liangchen beckoned Jinyi over and asked, "You and Linfeng, is a good thing coming?" ”

Jinyi's face turned red, and he couldn't speak. How did the prince know about the marriage before this?

"You ......"

"Don't be nervous." Song Liangchen said: "This king just wants you to help with something, if it is done, this king will definitely give you a big gift with Linfeng." ”

Jinyi was stunned for a moment, and said respectfully: "The prince has something to order." ”

What does it mean to sing with a husband and a wife, this kiss has not yet been completed, Jinyi's heart has been biased towards Linfeng, only by letting the master return to the prince's side, then she can also be with Linfeng. Of course, the premise is that the prince will really be good to the master.

The current master actually doesn't need her to worry about it anymore, even if the prince really loses her one day, she still has the ability to live well by herself. She is as strong as Ren Xiaoyao, but compared to Ren Xiaoyao, her own master still needs to rely on a little more, and she always feels that when she is alone, she will seem extremely lonely, as if she is sunk in something and can't pull it out.

So Jin Yi felt that if the prince wanted to do something, she would definitely help push the master down.

After dinner, it was rare for Song Liangchen to be interested and go out for a walk with the beautiful scenery.

Shen Meijing looked at him suspiciously: "Is there any good news?" ”

"No, it's just that I haven't spoken to you in a long time." Song Liangchen looked straight ahead, and said lightly: "You don't have to spend too much thought on the salt shop here, you have enough manpower, you can run it yourself, with this king here, no one can rob your things." ”

After a slight pause, Meijing smiled: "Thank you, Lord Wang, it just so happens that the folk woman also has an idea recently, and she can try to do it when she is free." ”

"What thoughts?"

"The concubine wants to open a school." Meijing said: "Both men and women can take classes in the school, try it in Guancheng first, and find some reliable masters." ”

Do you still have such thoughts? Song Liangchen smiled: "Women can't participate in the scientific examination, what's the use of letting them come to class?" ”

Glancing at him, Meijing said: "It's good to have more ink in your belly, it can make your daughter's house look more demure and connotative." Moreover, the daughter's family does not intend to collect money when the family comes to class, and the man's family collects a little to pay the master's salary. ”

The world is patriarchal, so she will favor women over men.

Song Liangchen smiled, but he still nodded seriously after laughing enough: "Okay, you can do this, this king has permission." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Meijing smiled, and couldn't help but think in her heart, it's good to have a back door, everything can be directly allowed, and the government will then help all the way, and she doesn't have to worry about it at all.

Frankly speaking, a large part of her current confidence was actually given by Song Liangchen, and she knew it.

I couldn't help but be grateful to him a little more.

"By the way, Jinyi and Linfeng are going to get married, just five days later." Song Liangchen said suddenly.

Meijing was dumbfounded, standing in place and looking at her: "Why don't I know?" ”

Jinyi didn't tell her!

"How do you know, Jinyi doesn't know yet, it was prepared secretly by Linfeng." Song Liangchen snorted lightly and said, "I told you in advance, don't tell Jinyi, Linfeng is planning to surprise her." The two of them were together before, don't you know? ”

Beauty: "......"

She was too busy, she just felt that she rarely saw Jinyi recently, but she really didn't pay attention to who she was playing with.

has met a bastard like Zhang Zhao, God still knows how to compensate for the brocade clothes one or two, Linfeng is a good person, at first she wanted to pull the red line, but she didn't expect that now they have it themselves.

"That's good."

Looking at her out of the corner of his eye, Song Liangchen nodded and said, "My daughter's family always has to get married, and the brocade clothes have a home, and you are happy, right?" ”
