Come to this set again, can you come up with some new tricks and give me some freshness!

After Lan Bin learned from Lu Gui what Zhu Yuanzhang was looking for, he didn't panic in his heart, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know!"

"Don't know?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't see the panic on Lan Bin's face, he was a little disappointed, and continued to say with a calm face: "Let's Biao'er, what a good prince, familiar with Confucian classics, and deeply loved by the people."

"There is also our Chun'er, who is known as Shu Xiucai, with the style of a humble gentleman. It's because of you, our Biao'er and Chun'er, that they are willing to fall and engage in cheap karma."

"Do you know how much impact it will have on the reputation of our Biao'er and Chun'er?"

The more he talked, the more angry he became, Zhu Yuanzhang walked back and forth, and said angrily: "You take our good grandson to do business, and you can still say that you are a child messing around." Let's standard, Chun'er, not children."

"Especially Biao'er, who will inherit our throne in the future. How can your reputation be tarnished?"

Lan Bin knew that what Zhu Yuanzhang said made sense, in ancient times, a person's reputation was very important. The better the reputation, the easier it is to succeed.

is like Song Jiang in the Water Margin, but he is just a small charge, just because of the name of a timely rain.

rebelled, and after the first Liangshan, his subordinates quickly gathered a group of people and became the second-in-command of Liangshan.

An ordinary person with a reputation can do this, let alone a prince.

But it makes sense, he doesn't think that Zhu Biao's reputation will be damaged, let alone Zhu Biao's business?

Not at all!

Thinking about it, he said unhurriedly, "Your Majesty, allow the ministers to defend themselves!"

"Say!" Zhu Yuanzhang stopped and spit out a word.

Lan Bin said seriously: "With all due respect, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu have not done business. The soap business is the work of a minister."

"Hmph, are you a fool to be a minister of the court? Can I believe your?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with approval, but he still kept a straight face and sneered.

Lan Bin said indifferently: "Believe it or not, the soap business is owned by the minister. Whoever dares to slander the reputation of the crown prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu must be a person with ill intentions!"

"According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, you should be beheaded!"

"So, you're the only one in the soap business?" The corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth hooked, and he said.

Lan Bin's heart flashed a little bad, and he hesitated a little and said, "Yes!"

"Good boy!"

Zhu Yuanzhang patted Lan Bin on the shoulder, called someone to bring a chair to Lan Bin, and after letting Lan Bin sit down, he said, "Baby, we are relatives and a family."

"We're not going to be polite to you. It's still the old rule, you give us eighty percent of the soap business."

I... Am I being tricked?

Lan Bin's eyes widened, and he realized that Zhu Yuanzhang's questioning just now was just a pretext, the focus was on the back, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty..."

"Of course, we are the emperor, we can't ask for you for nothing, how much principal do you need for your soap business. Let's give it to you according to the ratio of eight molecules!" Zhu Yuanzhang said magnanimously.

You really don't want it for nothing, it's just a big robbery!

Lan Bin pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, in fact, the soap business is not owned by a minister, but by the prince..."

"You didn't say that just now, you said that the soap business was owned by you, why is it not owned by you now?"

Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately frightened, "Could it be that you are deceiving us?"

"Do you know that bullying the king is a great crime to punish the nine clans!"

In the face of Zhu Yuanzhang's aggressive momentum, Lan Bin was suppressed in all directions, even if he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was scaring himself nine times out of ten, his heart trembled.

Swallowing his saliva, he mustered up the courage to say, "Your Majesty, what the minister said just now was told to outsiders. The emperor and his ministers are their own family and their own people."

"The minister naturally wants to confess to the emperor, soap is the business of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu, and the minister is just in it, accounting for a little bit of the molecule, and by the way, he runs errands for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu."

"If the emperor needs it, he can let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu dedicate it to the emperor."

"With the filial piety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu to the emperor, he will definitely obey his fate!"

We want to be able to talk to Biao'er and Chun'er, and we still need to talk to you here?

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Lan Bin angrily, and felt depressed again, Lan Bin is really Lan Yu's own son?

Lan Yu is just a reckless man, how can there be such a son, who is not very old, but has a lot of eyes? also knows how to take our words and plug our mouths.

What to do? This little guy doesn't have a trick!

You can't really force the soap business to take this doll, right?

So who is our old Zhu?

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, the emperor is rich all over the world, so he naturally doesn't look down on the small business of soap."

Lan Bin looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, swallowed his saliva, and took the initiative to attack: "The reason why the emperor wants the soap business is nothing more than to find a source of money for the palace and the court."

"The minister thinks that the emperor has put the cart before the horse in this matter!"

"How?"

How shrewd Zhu Yuanzhang was, he naturally saw that Lan Bin was diverting his attention, but he was not good at forcibly taking soap business elements. And although Lan Bin is young, his knowledge is not short, and he also wants to hear what he has to say, so he said with great interest.

Lan Bin said solemnly: "The minister thinks that the emperor's top priority to solve the financial dilemma of the imperial court is to collect commercial taxes."

"It is only natural that the imperial court collects taxes. No one can say it's not!"

"To put it lightly, do you really think that commercial taxes are so easy to collect?" Zhu Yuanzhang waited for a long time, but what he was waiting for was a cliché, and he said angrily: "We have talked to six Shangshu about the collection of commercial taxes in the past two days."

"Six Shangshu, five against. How do you want us to collect it?"

The collection of commercial taxes is a matter for others, but for you Zhu Yuanzhang, can it be counted?

With your temper, shouldn't it be pushed out strongly, who doesn't accept and kill whom?

Lan Bin looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in astonishment, before he could speak.

Zhu Yuanzhang may have seen his thoughts, and knocked Lan Bin on the head: "Do you really think that we are killing gods, butchers, and only killing?"

"No, I didn't!" Lan Bin was taken aback, Zhu Yuanzhang could read minds, and he could see my thoughts.

"You can't fool us, your expression told us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said, and knocked on Lan Bin's head angrily: "We kill people, all of them are famous. Doesn't kill people at will. Let's just say that if the imperial court passes the collection of commercial taxes and there are people who resist taxes, then we will never be soft."

"But the problem now is that the collection of commercial taxes has not been passed in the six Shangshu, so what reason do we have to kill people?"

"You can't just kill people because they disagree!"

He still hasn't said a word, that is, in the empty seal case, the officials killed too much.

Local officials, almost six or seven out of ten.

I didn't realize it when I killed it, but after I finished killing, I found that the court was not manpowered.

Not to mention the implementation of commercial taxes, even the daily work of the imperial court is almost unsustainable.

But he won't say this, let alone admit it, he will only resist alone.

He Zhu Yuanzhang is the emperor, there is nothing wrong with it, and it will not be wrong!

"Your Majesty, forgive the ministers for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, why do the six Shangshu oppose the collection of commercial taxes?"
