The second wind rises in Chang'an Chapter 420 Don't go back first
"Now that you've decided, why do you want to talk to me?" Li Yuan looked at Lu Chen and asked directly.
At this time, the salt did not yet appear in the "Salt Law", Li Yuan still continued the policy of the Sui Dynasty, that is, there was no tax on salt, and the Salt Law did not appear until the time of Li Heng of Tang Suzong in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, and the reason for its appearance was because Li Heng had a very powerful character under him, and this character was the Fifth Qi.
The fifth Qi person, as a salt and iron money maker, rectified the salt law and put forward the "Salt Law", stipulating that all places where salt is produced will have salt officials. The state exempts the pavilion households from forced labor, and the salt produced is purchased and sold by the government, and it is not allowed to buy privately.
It is precisely because of the emergence of the "Yan Salt Law" that the national tax revenue in the middle of the Tang Dynasty has increased greatly, but at this time there is no such figure as the Fifth Qi, besides, even if it appears, it is not certain whether the Fifth Qi can change the law, after all, a large part of the salt mines, salt wells and salt ponds in the Tang Dynasty are in the hands of the Xiao family, and the iron ore is the majority of the Zheng family.
With the current situation in the Tang Dynasty, even if the Fifth Qi appeared, he might not be able to succeed in changing the law, but Lu Chen didn't care about this, he was confident that he was much more ruthless than the Fifth Qi.
"The minister thinks that this matter should be approved by His Majesty! Moreover, the minister thinks that this money minister cannot be swallowed alone, and it should be shared with His Majesty, twenty-eight accounts, the minister accounts for two, and His Majesty accounts for eight, how about it? Lu Chen looked at Li Yuan with a smile and said.
"This one can be!" Li Yuan nodded directly in response, after all, he, the emperor, is also poor! Although the auction gave him a lot of dividends, he has a "big family", and the more money he has, the better!
Besides, Li Yuan also knew that the money of his future son-in-law was definitely not given to him as the emperor for nothing, as long as he agreed to share it, then he would have to help Lu Chen take care of this store when Lu Chen was not in Chang'an, those families, especially the Xiao family, would definitely use this opportunity to be unfavorable to Lu Chen, Li Yuan would definitely help Lu Chen protect it, at least, he couldn't let those people go too far!
Of course, Li Yuan also knew that if those people really used any means to provoke Lu Chen, then these people would probably have to directly bear Lu Chen's anger, others don't know, but he, the emperor, knows that there are too many "terrible" things in Lu Chen's workshop area of Lujiazhuang, as for why Li Yuan didn't ask Lu Chen for these things, it is because "this game of chess" has not yet ended.
"Then the minister will retire!" Lu Chen didn't need to say anything more, since Li Yuan agreed, it meant that the future father-in-law in front of him had already done something, Lu Chen said directly to Li Yuan.
"Go ahead!" Li Yuan nodded, Lu Chen directly opened the door of the palace, walked out, and as soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, he saw Chang Bao waiting on the side, Lu Chen nodded and smiled at Chang Bao, "Governor Chang, my father brought about one stone of refined salt, and I will ask Governor Chang to send it to the Shangshi Bureau for His Majesty to eat!" Lu Chen said to Chang Bao.
"Lu County has a heart!" Chang Bao nodded directly.
"As for Governor Chang, my father will definitely not let Governor Chang be busy in vain!" Lu Chen smiled and said with Chang Bao, "This announcement is over!" After Lu Chen finished speaking, he directly bowed his hand to Chang Bao again and left quickly.
"What did the kid tell you?" At the entrance of the hall, Lu Chen was naturally looked at by Li Yuan when he talked to Chang Bao, and when Chang Bao stepped into the hall, Li Yuan looked at Chang Bao directly and asked.
"Your Majesty, Lu Xiangong just said..."Chang Bao didn't hide it, he directly reported what Lu Chen said to Li Yuan, and even if Lu Chen said that he would not let him be busy in vain, he also reported it to Li Yuan, and when the report was finished, Chang Bao stood with his hands down, waiting for Li Yuan to "fall".
"This kid is really getting bolder, and he actually bribed the people around me! And so blatant! After listening to Chang Bao's report, Li Yuan directly stroked his beard and laughed, although it seemed that the meaning of the words was a little angry, but the expression and tone showed that he was not angry, obviously more ridiculous.
Li Yuan, as the emperor, can say ridiculous things, but as a person in Chang Bao's position, he doesn't dare to listen to it so simply as ridicule.
"Then, Your Majesty, do you want to knock Lu County Gong?" Chang Bao asked with some speculation.
"Knock? How to beat? Let the bad guys go and beat him? Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Chang Bao, "Do you really think that kid doesn't know that you have someone in the Zhuangzi?" Li Yuan pursed his lips and said, his tone somewhat helpless.
"This..."When Li Yuan said this, Chang Bao's face turned red, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, "Then Lu County Gong is really so capable?" However, Chang Bao still didn't believe it, after all, he was still very confident in the "bad guys" under his command.
"So powerful?" Li Yuan looked at Chang Bao's somewhat unconvinced appearance, and directly chuckled, "You can ask those people you scattered in the Zhuangzi what they do every day!" Do you think that kid said it was giving you a benefit, but just giving you a little benefit? Don't think that just because you're standing next to me, you think everything is as it should be! Li Yuan looked at Chang Bao and continued, "In your position, others may be a little afraid of you and respect you, but that kid won't care about this!" Li Yuan's words were not only reminding Chang Bao, but also beating Chang Bao.
"Then how Liu Heimin died, you should know very well! If this kid wants to kill anyone, there will only be one result, and that is 'no evidence'! Li Yuan reminded Chang Bao again.
"Whatever he gives you, you just do it! The reason why he left your people in Zhuangzi is to show me, to tell me, to tell you, and to tell everyone through your mouth that he has no objection! Li Yuan continued, "So don't use your methods against him, others don't care, but you definitely can't!" You know? Li Yuan put away his smile and looked at Chang Bao solemnly.
"Yes! The slave has written it down! Chang Bao bowed down to receive the order.
"Hmm!" Li Yuan nodded, still satisfied with Chang Bao's attitude.
"Grandpa, shall we go back?" What did Li Yuan say to Chang Bao, Lu Chen didn't know, when Lu Chen walked out of the gate of the imperial city, Liu Jing, who was waiting here, came up and asked.
"Don't go back yet! Two more places to go! Lu Chen directly turned over on the horse, and Liu Jing and others also turned over on the horse!
