Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 448; My plan is that there is no plan for the time being
Chapter 450; My plan is that there is no plan yet
What Li Yu said, all the officials present kept nodding, and one of them seemed to have found a bosom friend, watching Li Yu stretch his thighs;

"Isn't that right, Mr. Li County, what you said is so right, you are really waiting for the rice to be cooked. What Her Royal Highness told you is all the truth. We are almost driven crazy by those who ask for money. Days like this In another ten or eight days, I really will lose several years of life."

Another official choked indifferently;
"Wai Wang, from what you said, we all look alike, from the eldest grandson Shangshu to the officials at all levels, all of them are asked for debts, alas..."

Changsun Wuji tapped on the table, responding inconsequentially;

"The words are all true, but it would be great if we could recruit more big families. What His Majesty lacks is not three to fifty thousand guan, let alone several thousand guan. Of course, the more the better.

Dalang, look, I have been asking the servants at home to inquire about Cangbusi's movements today, and no one has come to register at the family at this moment, why don't you see if there will be another day tomorrow? "

After hearing this, Li Yu brushed and stood up straight;
"No, Uncle, this is not allowed. How can we change the order overnight? If it is like that, those big households will think that we are afraid that they will not come. It is not easy to do business in a hurry.

Now that the notices have been posted, let’s follow the notices. I can guarantee that there will be some more in the afternoon. According to my guess, there will be at least seven or eight more. It’s still early. Uncle, please wait patiently. Come on, someone is sure to come. "

While talking, Li Yu squeezed Changsun Wuji's shoulders, fearing that the big guy would make trouble again, so Changsun Wuji agreed while enjoying the massage;
"I just asked casually, and I didn't say that I didn't follow your notice. Uncle is not a fool, so why don't you know how to take care of the overall situation?

By the way, Dalang, have you fixed the amount of money for the sales rights of the states, counties, or not? You decide the day of tomorrow. Do you have a charter? It probably makes us old guys feel more at ease.

They are all in their tens of years. If tomorrow's errands are messed up, let's not talk about His Majesty's anger, just talk about this face, so you can't afford to lose face. At least you should give uncle a sigh of relief, right? "

As soon as Changsun Wuji opened his mouth, the officials below immediately jumped into action;
"That's right, County Uncle Li, the business of our liquor is handled by the County Uncle alone, and the weighing will be fixed tomorrow. I still don't know the details, and I don't have a solid foundation in my heart, so I don't feel at ease, County Uncle?"

"Exactly, Wang Yuanwai's words are not false at all. This is the first time I have done such a job with no foundation. I am also in a state of turmoil in my heart!"

"Who said it wasn't..."

Li Yu scratched his head and said in embarrassment;

"Returning to uncle, isn't my nephew just thinking about how to ask? To tell you the truth, uncle, my nephew hasn't figured out how much money is appropriate for every county in the world. I came here today to ask my uncle. Every county has its own money. How many household registrations, how many rich and powerful households?

For other transactions in each county, which county does better and which county does worse. To put it bluntly, it is to see how many people in each county can afford Wuliangye, and then count the big households to buy a county. How much Wuliangye can be sold and how much profit can be made?
If the price is [-] guan for a county, how long will it take for them to get back the capital? ? "

A group of officials heard that Li Yu was going to have a party tomorrow, and they hadn't decided yet. They all shook their heads and sighed.
"Sure enough, his mother's mouth is not hairy and he can't do things well. Tomorrow will start. Today is still a mess. What should I do? Sigh..."

Even though Changsun Wuji was usually calm and composed, Li Yu's brows were wrinkled and sweat was dripping all over his body at this moment, but he suppressed his composure and was more anxious than anyone else in his heart!

Liquor errands are kept in the household department, needless to say if you have meritorious service, you will be the first one to take the blame if you have a vat, it’s all at this juncture, and there is no specific plan yet, can you not be in a hurry?

But Changsun Wuji is a person who has gone through storms, what he thinks at this moment is not complaining, not complaining, but how to help Li Yu figure out the situation of the counties in the world in the last day of today,
Then everyone worked together to come up with a reasonable standard, so that when the final decision is made tomorrow, those big households who go to buy the right to sell feel that the price of the right to sell is reasonable and accept it safely.

Only in this way can the big households who participated willingly pull out the money and silk from their own treasury and hand them over to the imperial court, so as to solve His Majesty's urgent needs...

Changsun Wuji thought briefly for a while, and then spoke:
"Dalang, do you want to separate the price of the purchase right in the county, state, and county, right? Or do you have other ideas? You can say it carefully. Today, our household department will do nothing. There are different ways in the world, and the price of the state is fixed, so you don’t have to worry about panic at your investment promotion conference tomorrow.”

Li Yu looked up at the beams in the house, and said seriously;
"Returning to my uncle, my nephew wants to know the business situation of all counties, states, and roads, such as the tax situation of all places in the past few years, how much tax each county collects every year, and the detailed information for at least four years , and then can decide how much money should be suitable for a specific county, and the big households can accept it with peace of mind.

Uncle, you don't have to worry about anything, I have already transferred Xiao Tong and Liu Qi to Chang'an, and they arrived yesterday, I think I am meeting with Lu Langzhong in the Cangbu Division here, and I will be here soon.

The two of them are very down-to-earth and serious in their work. The key issue is that I have discussed this matter with them many times, and I already know the approximate price.

The only thing left to do is to check the taxes of all counties in the world. The prices are determined by county by county, state by state, and road by road. Even if you are too busy to go home tonight, you have to set the prices for all places.

This matter must involve aristocratic families and powerful families, and a few elders who are the head of the family come over, and they have the most right to speak.

As long as they can safely accept other big households, they can accept it, so I asked Lu Langzhong to make a move yesterday, and invited [-] big households who are very enthusiastic about our court baijiu trading, and asked them to participate and decide the final price together.

In this way, a reasonable price can be set, which is readily accepted by people, but they don't know the population and household registration situation of various places, and they don't know the tax background in the past, so they can't do it carefully and clearly.

So my nephew would like to ask my uncle for help to disclose the taxation situation of each county in the past few years with Xiao Tong, Liu Qi, and the thirteen big households, and ask them to work with uncle and your capable people to give advice. decided.

Uncle, please give me some convenience as much as possible, so that my nephew can go down to pay respects to the empress. "

Li Yu resorted to his trump card, and in the last sentence, he directly mentioned the matter of going to the empress to pay her respects, reminding Zhangsun Wuji that we are relatives...

Li Yu finished speaking in one breath, and did not look at the wonderful faces of a group of officials, but only watched Changsun Wuji waiting for the only big boss in the household department to make a decision, and the group of officials immediately became unhappy.

"Shang Shu, I think that the taxation of the court is a secret of the country, how can you just let some people who don't want to do it look at it, please tell me the lesson."

"Report to Shangshu, and the lower officials will also second it."

"Report to the Minister, and the next official will second."

"That's the case, Shang Shu Mingjian, it's better for Xiao Tong and Liu Qi to say something. Although they are not in charge of taxation, nor in charge of the household registration department, they are still officials of our household department.
For the sake of major considerations, it is considered an accommodating policy to check it out, but the other dozen or so big households... Xiaguan thinks this matter is very inappropriate, and I implore Shangshu to carefully consider it before making a decision. "

Changsun Wuji's expression was normal, he raised his right hand calmly, and the scene immediately fell silent;

"Colleagues, stay calm and don't be impatient. Listen to what I have to say before I talk about other things. The urgency of today is imminent. My household department is in charge of household registration, money and grain matters in the world, and I know the current situation best.

The rainy season will come in a few months, and the embankment must be repaired before the rainy season comes. This is a major and important event that must be carried out every year.

If the river breaks its embankment and the water and fire are ruthless, the world's granary in Jiangnan Road will be severely damaged, and the people will be displaced. In the future, countless people will die in the flood. This will definitely shake the foundation of the imperial court. This is an urgent matter that cannot be delayed for a moment. , I wonder if you colleagues think so? "

"Shang Shu's words are of course reasonable."

"The lower officials seconded the proposal."

"The lower official agrees with Shang Shu's argument very much."

Seeing a group of officials nodding, Changsun Wuji continued to state the key point;

"Last year, there was no heavy snow in the winter. This spring, there is little wind and little rain. The drought is already unstoppable. It cannot be hidden from the people of the world. Just look at the current grain and grain will rise a little in a few days.

Although it is insignificant, it fully shows that the drought has been detected in the grain market, and those merchants are also trying to lower the bottom line of the imperial court, raising prices little by little.

His Majesty Shengming knew the crisis of natural disasters early on, and he also had the heart to deal with the disasters, so he decided to order all counties in the world to prepare righteous warehouses. This move is to deal with future natural disasters and man-made disasters.

In the southern region, His Majesty has also explained that the key point is that there is plenty of water. The matter of the warehouse can be slowed down, and other places should be the focus. When this natural disaster comes, I will not talk nonsense, and my colleagues know it better than anyone else.

It’s not that I’m exaggerating, but natural disasters may be much more severe than I imagined. I have not been established for a long time, and I don’t have a solid foundation to deal with major disasters. Iron-blooded lessons from past history.

Therefore, the matter of righteous warehouses is no less important than the construction of embankments in the south of the Yangtze River. Besides, the weapons and armor of the sixteen guards, although we are all civil servants, we have to pay more attention to the world's major affairs in important positions in the household department. considerate.

I dare to assert that as long as natural disasters come, the surrounding situation that has been barely maintained and ready to move may explode in an instant. Therefore, the replacement of Sixteen Guards' weapons and armor is a major event of the country's sharp weapon, and it cannot be delayed.

However, all these things need money and silk to solve. Without money and silk, I will be like a lotus flower in my tongue, and it will be useless to talk about a mouthful of white foam. The court has no extra energy to make up for these big holes.

You all know the size of these holes better than anyone else. Dalang has been planning the sale of Wuliangye since last year, and His Majesty fully supports it. At the beginning, everyone was not optimistic about it. Only His Majesty and our dozens of stunned youths , go through fire and water, and now finally have a clue.

The trial sale of Wuliangye a few days ago, I won't say much about the effect, no one would have thought of it, tens of thousands of buckets of fine wine were released, but it was sold out in two days, those big households who brought the wine to Luoyang, if not limited to I am afraid that the imperial government's decree is selling a hundred guan for a bucket, and it is also a situation of crazy buying.

Now it's finally at the last juncture, and many of the big households who participated are very happy to see the frenzy, and some of them have already prepared money to buy the right to sell tomorrow.

But we haven't decided on the price at this time, what should we do tomorrow?You can't just negotiate a price and just use it to deal with those big families. The imperial court is not a bully who buys and sells by force.

How to set the price must have a standard and rules, and there is a basis that is convincing. I personally agree with Li Dalang's idea. If the big players get involved and set the price together, they will be more likely to accept it.

They are easy to accept, and then they can pull money here with peace of mind, and the court can relieve the urgent need. With the money, they can quickly do important things.

The embankments in the south of the Yangtze River can also be stepped up to prevent ruthless floods, so that the soldiers at the border can change their sharp weapons and block those ambitious people from outside the Great Wall.

All of these things are closely related to whether the price is reasonable or not. Dalang has been preparing for it since last year, so he can't act recklessly because he can't accommodate it?
I propose to agree to Li Dalang's request, allow the thirteen big households to participate, check the details and discuss the details with us, and strive to set a price that the big households can readily accept. In the end, everyone will be happy and do this well. Afterwards, you can also add a lot of ink to your performance appraisal. Please think about it again.

It was His Majesty who blamed it, and shouldn't have asked outsiders to check the country's secrets. My eldest grandson Wuji alone should bear it.

You guys discuss here later, I won't stay for a moment, I will report this matter to His Majesty first, I believe His Majesty's wisdom is vast, and I will definitely be able to figure it out..."
