Chapter Seventy-Two: The Fire Pit Shuo Fang

The results of Li Kuan and Wei Zheng were directly opposite, which made Li Kuan's mood sink sharply.

He didn't feel that he was more right than Wei Zheng.

On the other side is Wei Zheng, the mirror of the ancient people, he may not be the strongest in the Tang Dynasty in handling political affairs, but he is picky, and he is the first in the Tang Dynasty to find problems, and no one dares to say the second, otherwise Li Shimin would not have arranged him in Menxia Province.

Almost all decrees must be passed, and if they want to pass, they must be reviewed by the Ministry of Doors.

Wei Zheng's character is hard enough and his vision is good enough, and he can put an end to the issuance of many erroneous decrees.

Li Kuan believes in Wei Zheng's vision, since Wei Zheng said that the undercurrent is surging, it is true.

"I want to hear about it."

Li Kuan respectfully saluted Wei Zheng and waited for his explanation.

Wei Zheng took out one of the information sheets sent by Zhining and put it on the table.

Li Kuan glanced at it, and this record was Shuofang's prosperous economy.

Wei Zheng sneered:

"Shuofang is now under the management of Chai Shao, and Chai Shao is a general, how can he run Shuofang's economy."

Wei Zheng slid his finger down, pointed to a line of numbers, and said:

"75 new stores opened."

"What I understand is that the Liang division is bullying the people in Shuofang, recruiting troops and buying horses, and there is no economic development at all, and the people in Shuofang are poor, and they can't afford to buy goods."

Li Kuan nodded, it made sense.

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, his fingers continued to slide down, pointing to the Shuofang business tax below.

"These 75 shops pay 10,000 guan a month, and according to our Datang 30 tax and 1 commercial tax, they have to earn 300,000 guan."

"Do you think the people paid 300,000 yuan?"

Li Kuan shook his head frantically, he definitely couldn't take it out, the people of Chang'an were not so rich.

Li Kuan couldn't help but answer: "They are laundering money." ”

Wei Zheng shook his head and sneered: "This is just one of them, more importantly, they are smuggling and trading with the grassland." ”

"And I estimate that 5 of these 75 shops must be opened by Chai Shao and Chang'an generals."

Li Kuan admitted that he had a headache this time.

This is only one of them, and there must be more than a hundred other intelligence sheets, and there must be thirty or forty of them without a hundred problems.

Wei Zheng looked at Li Kuan's bitter face and smiled, the king of Chu is still very concerned, and those who don't care will not show a bitter expression at all.

Taking a deep breath, Li Kuan asked Wei Zheng to help point out what the undercurrents of Shuo Fang were.

Wei Zheng also dutifully pointed it out.

"The families in the north, mainly the five surnamed Qiwang and the Hongnong Yang family, want to see what is beyond the grassland, they must be the forces that have entered Shuofang."

"Above the court, the family has been tinkering with the privateer certificate recently, and they are doing it with an attitude that they can't favor one over the other, and there must be a group of family gangsters gathered in Shuofang who are ready to loot the grassland."

"In addition to the family, Shuofang itself is located at the border, where the people are fierce, and there are very few people who are willing to sit down and farm.

"There is also a Liang family in Shuofang City, they are land-sitting households, and they also have the merits of dedicating the city, which is much more difficult to deal with than the Feng family in Lingnan."

After hearing this, Li Kuan couldn't help but complain: "The biggest problem is still that group of families." ”

Although the words are short, they are well summarized.

Wei Zheng touched his beard and nodded in approval, that's right, the family is always the best at making trouble.

But Li Kuan suddenly squinted at Wei Zheng, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "If I'm not mistaken, it's Gong Wei who got me to Shuofang." ”

Wei Zheng's hand touching his beard stopped, his expression slightly embarrassed.

Li Kuan looked at the embarrassed Wei Zheng, you old guy, you are embarrassed to come over and show me the country, you kicked me into the fire pit.

As soon as he thought of the northern families gathered in Shuofang, Li Kuan had a headache.

Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the northern and southern families have been separated.

The southern family represented by Sun Wu wants to divide one side, and the northern family wants to dominate the world.

So now that he has to face the northern family, Li Kuan's mood is a little heavy, which means that the opponent he is facing is extremely terrifying, at least in terms of temperament.

Taking a deep breath, Li Kuan looked at Wei Zheng: "Duke Wei, can you help me solve the problem." ”

Wei Zheng shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand, not at all.

If he had a problem to solve, he would have rushed to Shuofang a long time ago.

"Then why did you kick me into the pit?"

Li Kuanqiang resisted the urge to strangle Wei Zheng and asked.

Lao Wei grinned and said naturally: "Maybe King Chu, you thought of a solution at a moment's notice." ”

I.

The words full of curses were held in Li Kuan's mouth and did not squirt.

Li Kuan can only say that he has quality.

After pointing out the question, Wei Zheng left freely, not caring at all about his behavior of kicking Li Kuan into the fire pit.

Late at night, lying on the bed, Li Kuan leaned on Minglan in his arms and hugged Mingyu on the other hand, thinking about how to solve Shuofang's affairs.

Thinking about it, Li Kuan suddenly couldn't help but scold: "What do I care about Shuo Fang, I still have my boss Yu Zhining, I just need to take care of myself." ”

Thinking of this, Li breathed a relaxed tone.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, outside Chang'an City, Li Daozong led Li Xueyan to see off Li Kuan, and Yu Zhining's family was also seeing Yu Zhining off.

Li Daozong was very interesting, and really got a hundred elite soldiers for Li Kuan as his personal bodyguard.

This time I went to Shuofang, and Minglan Mingyu and Li Kuan didn't bring it.

It's more or less a battlefield, and it's really a bit too much to bring a woman around.

Anyway, I don't have any physical needs.

The things Yu Zhining brought were simpler, books, scholars, and then they were gone.

On the first day on the road, Li Kuan lay in the carriage for a day.

That night, Yu Zhining went directly to Li Kuan.

Li Kuan, who was tired for a day and was about to rest, looked at Yu Zhining, who was in high spirits, and was in a bad mood.

Yu Zhining doesn't care, there are some things that can only be talked about at night.

"What is the opinion of the King of Chu on the situation in Shuofang?"

In response to Zhining's inquiry, Li Kuan scratched his head and said casually: "Lie flat." ”

These two words made Yu Zhining struggle for a long time to understand what Li Kuan meant.

"Not solved?"

Yu Zhining didn't believe that Li Kuan didn't know the situation in Shuofang.

"Not resolved."

Li Kuan replied firmly.

Yu Zhining frowned, looking at Li Kuan's expression, he was in a bad mood.

Before leaving, Li Shimin gave Yu Zhining a very simple task, to test Li Kuan's demonic level, as long as it does not affect Shuofang's military defense, Li Kuan can do whatever he wants, and support it.

But Li Kuan's attitude of inaction now is really confusing.

Yu Zhining left in a bad mood.

For Lao Yu, who came and went in a hurry, Li Kuan smiled disdainfully, wanting to pit me, no way.

Shuo Fang's ground-breaking situation, the more it is solved, the more troublesome it becomes, I just lie flat, I don't care, I just play.

Thinking of this, Li Kuan's whole mood was much better.

Eat some hot food, get a good night's sleep, and get ready to continue your journey the next day.

Yu Zhining didn't know what to think, so he abandoned the carriage the next day and rode directly on horseback.

Although Li Kuan was lying flat, in the spirit of not offending Yu Zhining, he still asked the guards to ride a horse with him.

In Shuofang City, with Li Kuan and Yu Zhining leaving Chang'an, the head snake led by the Liang family in the city, as well as the family that entered early, Chai Shao and Xue Wanche of the military, many forces have secretly said that those who come are not good.

A royal family, a small nobleman from the eighteenth bachelor of the Qin Palace.

The identities of these two people are destined to make it impossible for them to be all the way with them, and they will definitely find a way to turn Shuofang City into the appearance of the emperor.

After learning that Li Kuan and Yu Zhining were coming all the way, the forces in Shuofang City were nervous, didn't they plan to leave them time to prepare?

The two chapters I woke up in the morning were chapters 70 and 71 respectively, and my head twitched and I wrote the wrong chapter name.
