When Emperor Chongming heard that Jia Yun had a strategy, he didn't show joy, but his face sank.

The King of Zhongshun on the side looked at Jia Yun thoughtfully, and he didn't say much for a while.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Chongming said coldly: "If it was that kind of bullshit strategy last time, there is no need to mention it again." ”

In the eyes of Emperor Chongming and others, what Jia Yun said should be the policy of "spreading the ding into the mu" mentioned last time, although this policy is good, but the court cannot implement it, the resistance is too great, and if you are a little careless, I am afraid that the throne of Emperor Chongming is not stable.

Jia Yun knew in his heart when he heard this, the strategy of "paving the ding into the mu" was originally a bait thrown out by Jia Yun in order to win the favor of the Son of Heaven, not surprisingly, Emperor Chongming did take a look at Jia Yun because of this, but Emperor Chongming had no intention of implementing it, so Jia Yun never mentioned it.

At the beginning, Jia Yun didn't have anything to lose, if Emperor Chongming was willing to try, Jia Yun was not afraid, and he was in danger of seeking wealth and wealth.

But now Jia Yun's identity has to be scrupulous, and naturally he will not be stupid enough to mention the strategy of "spreading the land into the mu".

Jia Yun opened his mouth and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has another strategy, and the minister calls it "fire consumption to the public". ”

"Oh....", Emperor Chongming roughly guessed from the text, and said with interest: "Tell me carefully. ”

Jia Yun raised his words and said: "Your Majesty, most of the silver in the taxes paid by the people is mainly small pieces of broken silver, and when the state and county governments summarize and hand over to the national treasury, they must smelt the broken silver into large pieces, and the loss that occurs in the process of smelting the broken silver, the state and county officials require the people to pay more in addition to the tax silver, which is called fire consumption silver.....

Emperor Chongming frowned and said, "I know all of this, let's talk about the point." ”

Jia Yun saw that Emperor Chongming was not happy, and hurriedly continued: "Your Majesty, the fire consumption silver has always been collected by the prefectures and counties and the government governments, and the imperial court cannot get any benefits. ”.

Although Emperor Chongming was quite moved by what Jia Yun said, as the Son of Heaven, he considered more than just silver....

Jia Yun waited for Emperor Chongming to express his position, but Jia Yun thought that Emperor Chongming would definitely agree, after all, the miscellaneous taxes to be collected for the consumption of silver by fire were originally attributed to the prefectures and counties, but now they are attributed to the treasury, and it has no impact on the people.

As for the attitude of the officials, Jia Yun is not worried, this silver is legally distributed to the officials, it is a policy that is beneficial to the officials, they will not block it, and even vigorously promote it.

Of course, there will be objections among them, but for the huge organization of officials, there is no doubt that the mantis arm is a car.

Since there is no obstacle, and the treasury can get a sum of money, why not Emperor Chongming?

Sure enough, Emperor Chongming's expression became more and more satisfied, and he looked at Jia Yun more and more like it, and said, "Yes, this strategy is feasible." ”

Jia Yun saw that Emperor Chongming was satisfied, and his heart was also a lot more relaxed, as long as the Son of Heaven was satisfied, he would not be able to suffer, and after a moment of silence, Jia Yun reminded: "Your Majesty, although this policy is good, but Your Majesty still has to be cautious, the fire and silver are paid by the people, if it is not good, some officials see the flaws, take advantage of it, and make a lot of money, which not only increases the burden on the people, but also breeds the corruption of officials, which is not good for the imperial court, and please consider this point carefully." ”

All policies are implemented by officials, especially in ancient times, the transportation is not developed, the power of officials is very great, almost the emperor of the soil, if the officials are lawless, no matter how good the policy will become their tool to collect money, the suffering is still the people.

Emperor Chongming was not dissatisfied with Jia Yun's bluntness, he just liked Jia Yun's straightforward advice, and he could hit the point every time.

King Zhongshun nodded and said: "Brother Huang, what Jia Shenling said is very much, how to collect the silver consumed by fire, how to distribute the incorruptible silver, this is not an easy task, if it is collected too much, it will undoubtedly increase the burden on the people, but if it is less, it will be of no benefit, and the missing part will still have to be supplemented by the imperial court." ”

Emperor Chongming nodded cautiously when he heard this, raised his eyes to look at Jia Yun, and said, "Since this policy is proposed by you, what do you think?" ”

Jia Yun replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the fineness of the silver varies between the provinces, and the degree of loss is also different.

Due to technical reasons, the fineness of the silver is not the same, such as Kyoto Songhua silver, Tianjin Huabao silver and white treasure silver, Suzhou has Su Yuan ingots, Yangzhou has Yangcao Ping silver, Zhenjiang Gongyi foot silver, etc., its fineness is different, and the loss of re-casting after collection is not small, so there is "difficult to determine the severity, and the loss is more." In this way, it is difficult to ensure that the people below will be careful to pay less fire and silver, and pay taxes with bad silver, and then damage the interests of the court, and this policy will not only fail to solve the problem, but also become a burden on the court.

Emperor Chongming felt very reasonable when he heard this, and he had no clue or dissatisfaction with Jia Yun, after all, Jia Yun was a military general, and it was already very rare to be able to put forward policies, and he couldn't hope that Jia Yun would do things properly, if so, why should he have a hundred officials?

In the final analysis, if you want to improve this policy, you still need to rely on those civil servants to carefully deliberate.

At this time, Emperor Chongming's expression was much better-looking, and his expression was also warm, and the people who were waiting in the entire Wuying Hall breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jia Yun, you are very good, what reward do you need, you say directly, I have accepted you." Emperor Chongming was happy and promised.

Jia Yun's heart jumped when he heard this, and the Son of Heaven wrote him a blank check, which was a great favor.

After thinking for a moment, Jia Yun said solemnly: "It is the honor of the minister to be able to share the worries of His Majesty, as long as His Majesty is happy, the minister is happy with any reward." ”

Emperor Chongming scolded with a smile when he heard this: "Don't pat yourself in front of me, since I have given you a reward, I will not break my word." ”

Hearing Emperor Chongming's words, Jia Yun thought about it for a while, and said weakly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has something I want to ask Your Majesty for permission." ”

Emperor Chongming waved his hand and said arrogantly: "Say." ”

Jia Yun is not an ambiguous person, seeing Emperor Chongming's atmospheric appearance, he said: "Your Majesty, the minister Jia family has a daughter, who is the minister's aunt, who entered the palace a few years ago and served as a female historian in the palace. ”

Gao Xian on the side was also shocked when he saw that Jia Yun actually asked him for help before, and sighed Jia Yun's filial piety.

Emperor Chongming's eyes paused, and he asked with a smile: "Why, the daughter of your Jia family can't serve the royal family?" ”

Hearing this, Jia Yun hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "It is the honor of the Jia family to be able to serve the royal family, but I think that the old lady and the wife in the family are very worried, so the minister thought about whether to let my aunt go out of the palace to serve and save the old lady from worrying." ”

Emperor Chongming glanced at Jia Yun, who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "You are embarrassed, that Jia Nushi is quite popular with grandmothers, and I can't even open my mouth." ”

When Jia Yun heard this, he hurriedly made up for it: "The minister just said casually, if you embarrass Your Majesty, the minister will never give up, if Your Majesty rewards the minister with some yellow and white things." ”

When Emperor Chongming heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said: "Okay, I will reward you with a thousand taels of gold, and what you said, I will try to open my mouth for the sake of your filial piety, and I will have to say another if it succeeds." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jia Yun bowed.

Emperor Chongming waved his hand and ordered, "Go down, I still have something to discuss with King Zhongshun." ”

"Yes." Jia Yun, who was instructed, responded to the call and retired............
