Now their family is close to a million millions, and he is also rich and peaceful in his heart, and the temperament of the whole person is slowly matching the long.

Now he looks like a domineering prince, handsome and noble, Li Qiao really loves to death.

Li Qiao always said something in front of Tao Zhu, and after the two of them were happy in the evening, Li Qiao told him his opinion.

Tao Zhu was already drowsy, but after hearing his words, he immediately laughed and sobered up.

"Me, the domineering prince?" He pointed to his nose and asked Li Qiao incredulously.

"It's not like it now, it's not like it on weekdays, it's like it when you train people with a straight face." Li Qiao said and nodded on the tip of his nose: "The way you look when you train people with a straight face, if you are seen by a little brother or girl who doesn't know your details, you will definitely fall in love with you." ”

Tao Zhu: "......"

Although Li Qiao was saying that he looked like a man, he wasn't angry at all, he just wanted to laugh.

"Then next time I deliberately wear your clothes to try it on the street? Let's see if there is a little brother or girl who is not married and secretly looks at me. ”

"Nope." Li Qiao shook her head without thinking, and her tone was resolute: "You can only tease me." ”

“…… You're called domineering. Tao Zhu said and poked his heart: "Isn't it?" ”

"I'm being overbearing to you." Li Qiao grabbed his hand and pressed towards him: "You are not sleepy now, let's do it again." ”

Tao Zhu: "......"

He wrapped his hands around Li Qiao's neck, and the corners of his mouth curled uncontrollably.

He likes Li Qiao to be domineering to him.

The days slipped by, and soon it was September, and it was time for Li Qiao to pay her salary.

When the salary was paid, the people from the household department first sent him a slip of money for him to check, and after confirming that it was correct, he pressed his handprint, and after pressing the handprint, the next day the people from the household department sent his money to his house.

In August, Li Qiao only went to work for most of the month, but he was paid for the whole month, as a petty official from the sixth grade, the monthly salary was 200 taels, plus 500 catties of rice.

Of the 500 catties of rice, 300 catties are wheat and rice, and 200 catties are miscellaneous grains.

This silver and rice are enough to feed the family.

Although the price of Shengjing is higher than that of Pingcheng, it is not so high that it is exaggerated, after all, although there are many nobles in Shengjing, there are more ordinary people.

Two hundred taels of silver, enough for Li Qiao's family to eat meat three times a day, plus the grain sent down, this is enough to eat.

After the salary, Tao Zhu, Li Dashan, Zheng Qianqian, Li Ershan, Li Xia are happier than Li Qiao himself, there is so much silver, no wonder so many people want to be officials!

All the hard work is worth it, and the rewards are too rich.

"Huh? Didn't Meng Yue say before that she wanted to save money to pay off her debts and buy a house? At this level, he will be able to buy a house soon. ”

Tao Zhu was happy, and when he thought of Meng Yue, he couldn't help but say.

"He is from the seventh grade, and his monthly salary is ninety taels." Li Qiao said.

"That's a lot, our house is only 1,700 taels. He can save for two or three years to buy a house. ”

"But how much worse is he and yours?"

Tao Zhu was a little surprised.

There is only one positive seventh product between Li Qiao and Meng Yue.

And Xu Ying is a positive seventh grade, so he didn't wait for Li Qiao to answer and asked again: "How much is Xu Ying's money?" ”

Li Qiao smiled and replied one by one: "Meng Yue still has to socialize, it is impossible to save all the money." ”

"The reason why there is so much difference with my Yulu is because Dasheng's Yulu is more peculiar. For example, Xu Ying, he is a seventh-grade person, but his monthly salary is only one hundred and fifty taels. Jiang Zhi County was a seven-rank official before, but Jiang Zhi County's Yulu was one thousand taels a month. ”

"Ah???h

When Li Qiao's words fell, not only Tao Zhu's eyes widened, but even Li Dashan, Zheng Qianqian, Li Ershan, and Li Xia suspected that they had heard it wrong.

That's a big difference, isn't it?

"Zhixian is the seventh grade, you are from the sixth grade, why are you so different from the Zhixian Yulu?" Li Dashan asked in surprise.

"Jiang Zhixian is a local parent official, holding all the power of a county, the emperor is worried that the local magistrate will be corrupt and bribe and oppress the people for the sake of silver, so he deliberately raised the magistrate's salary, so that the magistrate of each county can be a good official who is honest and will not cause public resentment because of the lack of silver."

"This is not only the case in Qipinzhi County, but also the officials in other places who have real power to influence the people and the situation in a place are higher than officials of the same level or even high-level."

"There are also those real officials in the capital who hold real power, and the saint is afraid that they will take bribes, and the salary for them is also very high, and the highest is 5,000 taels of silver a month."

This is also something that Li Qiao only learned about yesterday.

He really didn't know that Dasheng's Yulu was so strange before.

But when you think about it, it makes sense.

The Emperor Taishang and the Holy Emperor first raised these officials comfortably, so that these officials had no worries, if these officials were greedy for silver, then they could not blame the Sheng family father and son for being ruthless.

Yesterday morning, he learned this, and at noon he couldn't help but run to the household to find Xu Ying.

Because he calculated the accounts, the sage set up such a strange salary, and Dasheng has so many officials, relying only on the national treasury, just to pay the officials half of the annual income.

That's a bit of a deformity.

The money in the treasury should be spent on infrastructure, people, and soldiers, and half of it was spent on officials, which really made Li Qian not know how to evaluate it for a while.

But Xu Ying told him that he was too worried.

The expenditure of officials only accounts for 10 percent of the total annual expenditure of the state treasury, and the rest is made up by the private treasury of the Emperor and the Holy Lord.

In other words, the officials of Dasheng are now mainly supported by the saints, and the expenditure of the treasury is limited.

Knowing this fact from Xu Ying's mouth, he really had mixed feelings.

The Emperor Taishang and the Holy Lord really paid too much for the sake of Dasheng.

This father and son Gu He wanted to smear Dasheng's liver and brain.

It's not just Li Qian who thinks so, Tao Zhu Li Dashan couldn't help but sigh after listening to his explanation, and after being stunned: "The saint is also too good, he actually took out his own money bag to support officials." ”

"No wonder the days in our village are getting better and better!"

"The Holy One is a good emperor. But the saint is also rich! ”

It's too rich to be able to afford so many officials.

After hearing this, Li Qiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart, if she was really rich, how could she ask the world for a way to fill the treasury on such a serious occasion as the entrance examination.

Even if the Sheng family father and son were very rich when Dasheng was established, after so many years of consumption, their money bags must have been deflated.

However, this has nothing to do with him for the time being, he has already handed over the bread, and with the income from the royal confectionery shop, it should be able to ease the money bags of the father and son.

Although Li Qiao admired Emperor Taishang and Sheng Hong very much, he still forgot about it.

The royal family was ruthless, and when he behaved too bewitchingly, he believed that the Sheng family father and son would definitely not be happy, but would raise the butcher knife against him.

Therefore, he should be his six-grade petty official with peace of mind, the bread he pays and the commercial taxes he pays every year have made a lot of contributions to Dasheng.

After sending out the money, it was soon time to rest again.

This time, Li Qiao and Taozhu are going to Xin Zhi's appointment.

Li Qiao didn't know much about drinking, and he had to bring pottery and bamboo, so Xin Zhi could only give up the restaurant in Shengjing, and instead invited their husband to enjoy chrysanthemums.

Now the chrysanthemums are blooming just right, and you can't drink alcohol, so you can only enjoy chrysanthemums.

Li Qiao and Tao Zhu don't have much research on flowers and plants, and they don't like it very much, but Xin Zhi finally came up with a location that is not good to push, and the two will definitely have to go to the appointment.

The place to enjoy chrysanthemums is outside the city, which is a very famous chrysanthemum garden in Shengjing, and all the chrysanthemums are planted inside.

Moreover, coincidentally, today not only Li Qiao Taozhu and Xin Zhi went to Juyuan, but Xu Ying Shen also went to painting.

An official of the household department also asked Xu Ying to enjoy the chrysanthemum.

went to the chrysanthemum garden together, so Li Qiao Taozhu and Xu Ying Shen set off together.

After going out of the city and walking for about an hour, the chrysanthemum garden arrived.

The author has something to say:

So before Sheng Hong said that he couldn't bear it, because he was paying for a bunch of officials~

In addition, this treasury income is based on the dynasties of the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, so don't take it seriously~

Chapter 115: Chrysanthemum Appreciation Turmoil Someone provoked

This chrysanthemum garden in Shengjing is quite famous, covering an area of 2,000 acres, and there are more than 20 kinds of chrysanthemums in it.

At this time, it is the season of chrysanthemums in full bloom, and before arriving at the gate of the chrysanthemum garden, I saw the colorful chrysanthemums all over the mountains, and there was a faint bitter fragrance in the air.

It was the first time for Tao Zhu and Li Dashan to see so many blooming flowers, and the flowers they had seen before were wildflowers blooming on the side of the road, so they were very fresh at this time, and they couldn't help but turn their heads around.

"Xin Gongzi is really good at finding a place." Tao Zhu had a smile on his face.

He hadn't been in it yet, but he already liked it a little.

In front of the side of the oxcart, there is a large yellow chrysanthemum, spreading from the fence to the small hillside in the distance, rich and beautiful, with today's blue sky and white clouds, he can't take his eyes off it.

Li Dashan smacked his tongue: "How much silver does it cost to plant so many chrysanthemums?" If we go in today, it will definitely cost a lot of money, right? ”

Li Qiao smiled when she heard this: "Don't be afraid, all today's consumption will be paid by Xin Gongzi." ”

Tao Zhu also smiled: "It's still a big mountain." ”

He was only amazed by the scene in front of him, and he didn't think about the silver at all.

He really changed, and he couldn't even think of silver when he saw such an occasion.

"That's going to cost a lot of money, too." Li Dashan couldn't stop sighing: "It's a pity that Qianqian didn't come, he definitely likes it here." ”

There was a light rain the day before yesterday, and Li Xiaorui contracted a cold, so Zheng Qianqian didn't come with him today.

"Let's try it first, if it's fun, then let's play together next time." The chrysanthemums here will bloom for at least a month. ”

Li Qiao said.

"Good, good." Li Dashan nodded busily.

While talking, the ox cart came to the gate of the chrysanthemum garden.
