Chapter 45: Visiting the Green House Collectively?
This sycophant is always right.
But Qin Xiao frowned, and suddenly said:
"Don't you think things are going too well, something is abnormal?"
"The people of Fengzhou are doing well now, and of course I am happy."
"But in this world, there is no such thing as a free dinner."
Hearing Qin Xiao's meaningful words.
Eldest princess, Yang Da's smile was fixed on her face.
Yes, how can there be any good thing for nothing?
The eldest princess also felt that Xu Mo had indeed helped the people, but it was impossible for the people not to give something.
But what is the price?
"Wait, what clues can you hear?"
The more prosperous Fengzhou was on the surface, the more uneasy Qin Xiao felt.
I always feel that under the surface of prosperity, there is an imperceptible crisis.
If you don't give, you don't get anything.
This is also the truth that Qin Xiao has firmly believed in all the hardships and hardships.
Qin Xiao's sharp gaze fell on Yang Da.
Yang Da chuckled in his heart, shivered unconsciously, shook his head first, and then nodded hurriedly.
Qin Xiao said unhappily: "What do you mean?" ”
"Something to say."
Yang Da hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, Weichen remembered that the rapid development of Fengzhou is far from being comparable to other places, which is a good side. ”
"But it is also true that there are some anomalies that you can't see anywhere else."
Qin Xiao immediately asked, "What is abnormal, hurry up." ”
Yang Da hesitated: "Fengzhou has invested a lot of money, the economy has developed rapidly, and the people's pockets are bulging, but correspondingly, prices have also risen sharply." ”
"The current price of goods has risen several times compared with before."
Yang Da is also not sure, whether the doubling of prices is abnormal.
After all, although prices have risen, the common people still eat well and buy more, and there is no bad impact at present.
Therefore, he did not dare to write these situations into the recital.
Qin Xiao immediately remembered the price of the baked cakes he had seen.
In the capital, the most elaborate baked cakes are only about ten cents.
However, the baked cakes in Fengzhou are three times more expensive.
"Are there any other anomalies?"
Qin Xiao couldn't figure out anything for a while, and asked without giving up.
Yang Da shook his head blankly.
Qin Xiao was still thinking with a calm face.
He felt that something was wrong, and that he had to find out the truth behind the phenomenon.
Qin Xiao remembered that before, the eldest princess and the crown prince had mentioned that Xu Mo wanted to go to sea to do business.
The national policy of the Great Zhou Dynasty pursues self-sufficiency and prohibits going to sea to do business.
Xu Mo used demand as an excuse and wanted to go to sea.
One of the reasons is that if the people have more money in their hands, they will not want to work, and sooner or later there will be a shortage of materials.
Everyone has money, but they don't have enough supplies.
So what's the use of more money?
Thinking of this, Qin Xiao was stunned.
The current situation in Fengzhou seems to be developing in the direction that Xu Mo had long expected.
Then Xu Moxian must also have a headache about not being able to go to sea, right?
Qin Xiao suddenly, he really wanted to know Xu Mo's next plan.
And.
Going to sea is not a trivial matter, and it is not something that Xu Mo can do alone.
He hurriedly asked Yang Da: "What are the major movements of the officials in Fengzhou recently?" ”
Yang Da shook his head: "No." ”
Qin Xiao was a little incredulous: "How can there be no movement?" ”
Yang Da explained honestly: "Your Majesty, the officials of Fengzhou are happy in the Qinglou all day long as usual. ”
"Now the pockets of the officials in Fengzhou are also sufficient, and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment."
"So they can't think about it, and they almost regard the Qinglou as their home."
Qin Xiao's face changed greatly when he heard this.
"What did you say?!"
"The officials of Fengzhou dare to soak in the green building all day long?"
"Where is the dignity and majesty of the imperial court?!"
Qin Xiao's face was instantly clouded, and he stared at Yang Da with an unkind expression.
That momentum, as long as Yang Da doesn't answer well, he will be unlucky.
A layer of cold sweat broke out behind Yang Da, and he knelt down neatly: "Your Majesty, the names of the officials who have been to the Qinglou, as well as the number of times and expenses, are all recorded." ”
Qin Xiao's face was as cold as ice.
If the physical evidence is there, then it is true.
Qin Xiao's throat was full of coldness: "Bring it, I want to take a look." ”
Yang Da presented the roster with his hands high.
Qin Xiao took a closer look.
Most of the officials in Toyosu are on the list.
Qin Xiao only felt that his heart was blocked by a big stone, and he was uncomfortable.
What a disappointment for him.
not only lingered in the Qinglou, but also shot so happily.
The cost is less, there are thousands of taels, and more than tens of thousands of taels.
Qin Xiao's head throbbed suddenly.
He was curious to know which official spent the most money in the Qinglou.
After reading it again, his eyes stopped at a name, but he was stunned.
Zhu Jingwen!
Qin Xiao blurted out and shouted, "How could it be him?!" ”
The eldest princess hurriedly came over, and was stunned when she saw it: "Zhu Jingwen? Am you mistaken? ”
Qin Xiao's face darkened.
He was very impressed by Zhu Jingwen.
Zhu Jingwen is not young, he also served as an official in the previous dynasty, and he is honest and fair.
After Qin Xiao ascended the throne, he admired him very much and let him stay in the court as a small official.
Later, for some reason, Chen Yong was very displeased with this person.
So he was sent by Chen Yong to Fengzhou as an official.
At that time, running from the capital to the impoverished Fengzhou was tantamount to a disguised demotion and exile.
It's just that I didn't expect that feng shui took turns, and when it came to Xu Mo's hands, life was so moist.
Still soaking in the green building every day?!
Qin Xiao couldn't understand that Zhu Jingwen was such a clean official, a good official.
But it has become the most expensive to visit the green building?
Since the opening of the Qinglou, the expenses of the officials have been close to 100,000 taels of silver.
One hundred thousand taels of silver!
Qin Xiao was dumbfounded, and Qin Xiao jumped like thunder.
Seeing this, Yang Da lowered his head deeply, and his body trembled involuntarily.
Things are getting bigger.
Really.
Qin Xiao was so angry with Zhu Jingwen that he couldn't go along with it, and he went to more official names.
His eyes were almost black, and he was about to pass out.
"It's unseemly! They, are they trying to rebel? ”
Qin Xiao let out a roar of rage.
There are not only civilian officials in Toyoshu, but even the names of the nearby commanders and generals are also listed!
Needless to say, the low-level military attachés are all old guests who cheer for the Qinglou.
Even Fengzhou's commander of soldiers and horses, Ma Zhongyi, actually ranked second!
Among the dozens of military attachés below, there is no one who has not been to the Qinglou.
Off the beaten track!
Third, this is not a local official in Toyoshu.
Rather, the commander of the army stationed near the Toyosu Mansion and the guard!
This is special, probably because I came here, and I ran here twice in three days to be happy.
