Chapter 32: Give you a chance to be promoted
After the young woman behind her said a few words to the servant beside her, the maid walked towards Qin Mu with an umbrella.
"This is from my mother, go home."
Qin Mu took the umbrella, "Thank you." ”
"It is worthy of being everyone's lady, kind and sensible." Qin Mu thought in his heart.
At this time, the family who had just collected the money shouted at Qin Mu.
"Go to the back door and wait."
Qin Mu followed the instructions and came to the back door.
As soon as he entered the door, he stretched out a hand and looked at him quietly without saying anything.
Qin Mu took out another ingot of silver and gave it to him.
"You happened to be in time today, there are many people who usually want to find our family master, today the family master is sick, rest at home, come in."
Qin Mu walked in and followed him to the door of a study.
"Come in." A hoarse voice came from inside.
Qin Mu walked in, the furnishings of the study were simple, and there were several landscape paintings hanging on the walls, which were filled with the smell of Chinese herbal medicine.
The man sitting at the table had half a hundred hair, a long beard, and was writing something with his head down, and a bowl of decoction next to him.
"In Xia Qin Mu, I have seen Master Fei." Qin Mu saluted.
"Well, sit."
Qin Mu sat down, "I came today to buy more than a dozen acres of land in Tianshan Village, I don't know if the adults can help." ”
Feiran put down his pen and glanced at Qin Mu, "Does this matter still have to go through me?" You're too casual with your personal feelings. ”
"Don't you know, the village of Tianshan Village is Xue Huaiyi's father."
"Xue Huaiyi? You've messed with him. Fei Ran suddenly became interested.
"It's just beating his father, it's nothing, as the people of the Tang Dynasty, we can't follow the laws and regulations to buy land, and we can't force us to buy and sell." Qin Mu complimented.
Hearing that Qin Mu beat Xue Huaiyi's father, Feiran secretly laughed in his heart.
"As long as our Datang buys and sells land, it can be traded as long as it is reasonable and legal, how much do you want to buy?"
"It's about 20 acres, and the location is close to Chidao."
"That's not good, it's not allowed to buy and sell there, since you know Zheng Zhou, you naturally know the reason."
Qin Mu really didn't know, but guessed that it should be a strategic buffer zone over there, and it couldn't be bought too much by others, and if it was used to build a house, it would be a big hidden danger.
"Let's be honest with you, I'd like to build a workshop there to produce household items."
"It's useless to say that the sky is broken, you can go."
Qin Mu didn't get up, but turned his mouth and said, "There was a big incident in the palace today, right?" ”
Fei Ran suddenly glared at him, "It's not something you should care about. ”
"I also know some news, Li Chong rebelled, and his father also rebelled, the situation became big in an instant, the imperial court wants to send more troops, and this time it is Zhang Guangfu and Zhang Shilang who are leading the army, right?"
Fei looked at Qin Mu in disbelief, he had just learned the news, and he began to guess in his heart the origin of this person named Qin Mu Xiaolangjun.
Qin Mu definitely didn't come to him just to buy land this time.
"What the hell do you want to do?"
Qin Mu stood up and smiled slightly, "I'm here to help your lord get promoted." ”
"I'm not too old, I'm not too young, I'm coming, I'm sending off!"
Feiran, as an old fritter in officialdom, naturally felt that someone had deliberately sent someone to frame him.
"It's better for Lord Fei to wait for me to finish, traitor Xu Jingye, adults know, right?"
"Wait." Fei Ran waved his hand and sent the servant away.
"Didn't he die early?"
"He's dead, but his brother Xu Jing is really not dead."
Fei's pupils dilated, thinking about the pros and cons.
"As far as I know, Xu Jingzhen seems to have recently escaped from exile, right?"
"Well, guess where he's hiding?"
"Where are you hiding?"
"Hiding in Luoyang Ling's mansion."
"Hmph, it's impossible, Qin Mu, do you think you can deceive me with these lies? Hiding a thief is a capital crime, and Luoyang ordered Zhang Siming to give him a hundred dares, and he didn't dare. ”
"Don't say it so much, Xu Jingye is also a British public, and there are a lot of treasures in his private collection."
"It's nonsense, did you just come to Luoyang? Who in Luoyang has never heard of the double heir flail, which was made by Zhang Siming and Fang Siye, which shocked the entire Luoyang abusing violence. ”
Qin Mu understood Feiran's words, he was saying that Zhang Siming was a smart person and ambitious, how could he risk exterminating the clan for money.
Qin Mu didn't know why Zhang Siming did this, and it was also mentioned in the history books, and the protagonists of the whole thing were not them but Zhang Guangfu.
"Money is one thing, but I think it should be Xu Jingzhen who threatens the heirs and asks him to help him escape." Fei Ran analyzed.
Qin Mu nodded in approval, he was worthy of being a person in the officialdom, he could see the problem at a glance, Qin Mu still thought simply.
Xu Jingye's younger brother should know some of their handles, after all, this whistleblowing system, after biting one or two well-founded things, will naturally be confirmed soon.
Zhang Guangfu was removed from power after his two heirs were arrested and indiscriminately bitten and informed.
After all, he has the merit of holding military power and rehabilitation, and the reason is that the credit is too great, coupled with Di Renjie's condemnation of his killing and risking merit, any emperor will think of killing him.
"Do you want the credit for this?" Qin Mu asked.
Fei Ran turned his back and thought for a long time.
Reporting the two heirs can also avoid the possibility of being told secrets, after all, he has no enemies in the officialdom, and he may lose more after refuting Qin Mu and Zheng Zhou's face......
"Let's talk about the land."
A smile appeared at the corner of Qin Mu's mouth.
Outside, a woman in a pink dress slowly approached the study, but was stopped by a domestic servant outside the door.
"Big lady, the head of the family is talking about things and doesn't let anyone else in."
"Talking about things, are you meeting very important people?"
The servant shook his head, "No, it's a poor, sour man. ”
"That's okay, I have something to look for my father, so you shouldn't have seen me."
The woman trotted to the study and stopped at the door.
Standing in the doorway, she heard laughter coming from inside, so she shouted, "Daddy! ”
"Caiwen, come in, I'll introduce you, this is Qin Mu." A smile on Feiran's face did not diminish, and he introduced, "This is the little girl Fei Caiwen." ”
"Fortunately."
Fei Caiwen recognized Qin Mu's clothes and concluded at a glance that he was the man who had just squatted under the eaves, and looked at Qin Mu with a little surprise on his face.
"Lord Nafei, I'll quit first." Qin Mu saluted Fei Ran and Fei Caiwen and walked straight out.
After Qin Mu left, Fei Caiwen asked, "Who is he?" ”
"He is a rich kid from Chang'an, and my father just talked to him about renting land."
"Rent land? Isn't it just buying? ”
"Who knows, but he proposed a method, which is to rent more land and sell less land, which can increase two tax revenues and reduce the loss of farmers' land."
"What do you mean?" Caiwen looked puzzled.
"Silly girl, in the future, you will rent it to someone else in the name of the imperial court, isn't this middleman your father? Moreover, when the drought and flood disaster occurs, the peasants are unable to pay taxes, so they can rent the land directly to the landlords and gentry, and let the peasants work for them, and when the lease period is reached, the land still belongs to the peasants themselves, and this policy is not the best of both worlds. ”
Fei Caiwen suddenly brightened, "What a good method!" This Qin Mu is quite smart! ”
The Tang Dynasty implemented the equalization system, the people's land was granted by the government, and part of the lease was owned by the farmers after one year, and Qin Mu's method was a kind of feedback, so that the imperial court could have more land distribution rights, and more land for other people who needed to farm to cultivate, the most important thing is that this law can reduce the pressure on the disaster victims, and there will not be a large number of displaced people, which is best used to provide advice.
