Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 19 19 Less taxes

Wuzhixian sat aside again. Sometimes his subordinates acted too smart and it was really hard to fool him.

If everyone pretends not to know, who knows whether the name of the feudal lord who is a personal friend will be spread behind the scenes.

Now that Wang Buli has made it clear, he no longer has this worry.

Zhu Di never thought that he would remember him when he showed up during his wedding a few days ago.

"I was careless."

Zhu Di also put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands: "Why did you point it out?"

"It's better to make some things clear." Wang Buli sighed: "Lest people say that we are having an affair with the vassal king and have a disobedient heart, it can be regarded as self-protection."

cautious.

This guy is really too cautious.

Zhu Di has never thought about that. His eldest brother is in good health and is the old man's designated successor. If his second brother and third brother have such thoughts, it is not his turn.

Wang Buli knew that there must be Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes and ears in the county government. The days were still long, and today was just a formal acquaintance with Zhu Di.

There is still time to get in touch with him and help him quickly ascend to the throne after Zhu Biao's death.

Zhu Di paused, then changed the subject and said, "I heard my cousin said that you didn't understand that woman's suffering?"

"Why should I understand?"

"why not?"

Wang Buli asked back: "She killed someone and then used words of suffering to cover up her evil nature. I'm not interested. There are too many such things in the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Di was stunned, holding the chopsticks in his hands at a loss.

This was an angle he had never considered.

In other words, a meat eater simply won’t understand.

He only knew that Wang Buli found out the murderer by solving the case, gained fame, and gave "fairness" to the people.

Seeing that Zhu Di stopped eating, Li Jinglong was curious: "What's wrong?"

If it hadn't been for the woman's begging for mercy and Wang Buli's persistence in resisting, he would never have gotten involved in this matter.

It doesn't matter to him who is dead or not, whether he is the murderer or not.

Even when there was a conflict, he felt that his face had been damaged. It was not because the woman stepped forward, but it just happened to give him an excuse.

Among the meat-eaters of the Ming Dynasty, who would care whether a common person was wronged?

"You said that the people of the Ming Dynasty suffered too many grievances?" Zhu Di's expression turned serious.

Who dares to say that Ming Dynasty is not good, he can't stand it.

In particular, he is extremely dissatisfied with what Wang Buli just said about the low taxation of the Ming Dynasty. He is forcing his father to become a tyrant!

Wang Buli glanced at Zhu Di: "Justice costs money. How can we handle cases without money? How come His Highness, King Yan, has become so meat-eating?"

"伱."

Zhu Di got up angrily. After he was born, Zhu Yuanzhang's life became better and he never suffered any grievances in life.

The two sides broke up unhappy.

Song Dianshi really didn't expect that Wang Buli, who was usually easy-going and easy-going, could not have good relations with the powerful.

With just a snap of a finger, you can be immobilized in official circles for decades.

Li Jinglong also had a complicated look on his face. He couldn't understand why Wang Buli, a small official, came to kneel and lick him without knowing his identity like the others.

Even His Highness King Yan is not worthy of his kneeling and licking, which is really puzzling.

Instead, Guo Zong patted Wang Buli on the shoulder: "We will have time to talk about the Thirteen Fragrances in the future, and I will make sure you won't suffer any loss."

After everyone left, Wu Wei looked at Wang Buli and said, "Why do you have to do this? It will be of great benefit to you to hug His Highness the lap of King Yan."

"Wuzhi County, I don't have any ambitions at the moment." Wang Buli served himself rice again: "I'm on duty to investigate cases, and on bottom duty I'm filial to my parents. It's pretty good." "You're eighteen or nineteen years old, why? He is as heartless as an old man." Wu Wei reluctantly picked up his job and said, "You really don't know how to make progress."

"You will understand the truth when you are older." Song Dianshi continued.

Wang Buli didn't think it was a wise choice to report to Zhu Di at this time.

The county government must be under Zhu Yuanzhang's surveillance, and it would be better for both parties to keep a certain distance.

King Yan Zhu Di left the county government office in Jiangning County and walked out angrily.

Seeing that he was angry, Li Jinglong and Li Jinglong hurriedly followed up: "Your Highness, if you ask me to tell you that that little official just doesn't know what to do, he won't respond if I give him face."

"Your Highness, do you want me to take action?"

When Guo Zong said these words, Zhu Di stopped and looked back at the two of them: "Under the emperor's feet, you all dare to mess with the officials of the Ming Dynasty. It seems that the father and the emperor asked you to learn the prince's book for nothing."

Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to the education of the children of Gongqing, and ordered Confucian scholars Neng Ding, Zhu Mengyan and others to compile the "Gongzi Shu" to compile the facts about loyalty and treachery in ancient times.

This was done before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty.

"Don't dare forget." Li Jinglong and the other two quickly bowed and saluted.

Although Zhu Di was angry, he didn't want to kill someone out of anger.

Not everyone can withstand the intimidation of his father, Zhu Yuanzhang.

Inside the palace.

After Zhu Yuanzhang came out of the fairyland for the second time, he was in a good mood and had already strengthened his surveillance and control of Wang Buli.

So when King Yan Zhu Di appeared in the county government, all the conversations were recorded in the book and sent directly to Zhu Yuanzhang.

When he saw Wang Buli saying that Ming Dynasty's commercial taxes were too low, he looked extremely dumbfounded.

I have belittled the status of businessmen so much, and he still doesn’t think it’s enough!

Businessmen will also continue to be taxed heavily on money.

When it comes to governing local atrocities, he is better than me!

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed twice and put it aside.

Zhu Biao, who followed Zhu Yuanzhang to learn how to handle government affairs, took advantage of the opportunity.

At this time, what a county official did became a casual conversation between the father and son of the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty.

After Zhu Biao finished reading, he couldn't help but slap the table and said:

“Dad, this kid is indeed a talent worth cultivating. The more he earns, the more taxes he pays.

The next trend is for the nobles to control more shops to compete with the common people for profit.

Thirty tax per one is still too little. "

"Do you think it's a good policy?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to do such a thing at all. The business tax had only been set for a while, and it had to be changed.

"It's a good thing for the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Biao nodded repeatedly: "Now the imperial court needs money for the northern expedition. It also needs money to build roads, water conservancy, and guard against Japanese pirates."

Zhu Yuanzhang then took the booklet and looked at Wang Buli's words carefully. What this boy said was reasonable. It was a good suggestion, but when should it be taken out, it needs to be considered.

"You are going to cut off the money bags of the nobles. Can they not worry about you?" Zhu Yuanzhang buttoned up the book in his hand: "It is better for me to do such offending things."

Of course Zhu Yuanzhang knew that these old brothers were quite wealthy and were quite luxurious on weekdays.

But what’s wrong with having fun and enjoying life after a lifetime of fighting?

Chang Yuchun wanted to enjoy it, but he was dead.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to make money, so he supported the Northern Expedition and solved Bei Yuan's worries as soon as possible.

"I still have to go talk to him."
