Datang: God-level son-in-law, salted fish will become stronger

Li Er has suffered a lot from his hands, especially about joining the gang.

Thinking about it, Li Er had learned his lesson a long time ago, so he dared not bring up this matter again.

Otherwise, if you can't take advantage of the bargain in the end, you must build something.

Changsun Wuji continued: "Why did I come here for His Majesty's reputation?"

"Reputation?" Qin Mu frowned, and pondered: "What does your majesty's reputation have to do with my sale of stoves?"

"Why doesn't it matter?" Changsun Wuji took a sip of hot tea, "You sold stoves at a low price, and you didn't exploit the people with your advanced consciousness and the resources in your hands. You left an excellent impression in the hearts of the people and gained fame. .”

Hearing this, Qin Mu nodded.

He probably understood what Li Er meant.

This is because Li Er didn't take advantage of this opportunity to earn his reputation, so he was aggrieved.

"Then what does His Majesty mean?" Qin Mu asked casually.

Li Erbai's reputation doesn't matter, but he must not let him suffer.

This matter was originally earning conscience money, if Li Er had other ideas, then don't blame him for turning his face and denying others.

"You don't have to be nervous." Changsun Wuji heard some meaning from Qin Mu's words, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty will not let you suffer. If Your Majesty exempts you from taxes on these few commodities, you still have to pay taxes." Can it be sold at a lower price?"

"Exemption from taxes?" Qin Mu hesitated slightly, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty can be so courageous? This is really strange."

Qin Mu had calculated thousands of times, but he did not expect that Li Er would bleed profusely.

He slapped himself hard.

Changsun Wuji laughed and said, "Otherwise, you can be happy if you suffer."

In fact, he was on Qin Mu's side.

Before the stove was sold, Qin Mu installed a lot for the eldest grandson's house.

Even coal has been unloaded several warehouses.

The eldest grandson Wuji was kind to Qin Mu, and Qin Mu respected him very much on weekdays.

Qin Mu nodded, and responded, "If this is the case, the price of the stove can be lowered by about [-]%."

"Can it be up to [-]%?" Changsun Wuji couldn't help exclaiming.

It seems that although Qin Mu has already lowered the price, the profit is still there.

But come to think of it.

The mining efficiency of his coal field is ten times that of the official operation.

Because of this incident, Li Er didn't have many people from the labor department.

But after all, he didn't take it seriously.

After all, if they were compared with Qin Mu, an evildoer, they would definitely lose miserably.

"That's right, since His Majesty intends to do some practical things for the people, I can't refute His Majesty's face too much."

As Qin Mu spoke, he took a sip of hot tea.

He didn't have too many demands on Li Er, he put the people in his heart, and he just needs to be a wise king and a holy lord.

It's hard to say, but easy to say.

Depends on his endurance.

However, Li Er still has the potential to be an emperor through the ages.

Not to mention, in the past three years, Wei Zheng alone has advised Li Er no less than two hundred times.

Wei Zheng always had a headache, and sometimes he would go crazy, regardless of the occasion.

Therefore, Li Er was extremely embarrassed by Wei Zheng several times.

He even wanted to dismiss him from office.

But now Wei Zheng still sits firmly at the head of Yushitai, a very respectable minister.

This shows that Li Er's ability to distinguish right from wrong is still extremely strong.

Moreover, he can listen to opinions.

This is the most commendable.

"Okay, with your words, I'm relieved." Changsun Wuji said, standing up, "Then I will return to the palace and return to my life. If this matter is not resolved today, His Majesty may not even be able to sleep well."

Immediately afterwards, Changsun Wuji turned and left.

Qin Mu stood up, "Uncle, go slowly."

"Okay, there's no need to send it off." Changsun Wuji waved his hand and walked out of the Qin mansion quickly.

Li Er is still waiting for the news of his victory in the palace.

Back to the palace.

Changsun Wuji told Li Er about this, and Li Er was overjoyed.

At the same time, the Ministry of Households ordered that the imperial court subsidize the people who bought the stove.

The prices of a series of commodities such as stoves have dropped by [-]%.

The common people shouted that Li Er was the lord of the Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 474 : Do you think my money came from the strong wind? (4/5 "replenishment")

Chang'an City.

Royal Palace.

Hall of Liangyi.

Li Erduan sat on the dragon chair and glanced at the Chinese and military officials in the hall, with a smile on his face.

Nowadays, all over the northern part of the Tang Dynasty, there is smoke from cooking.

Stoves and kangs allowed the people of Tang Dynasty to completely get rid of the bitter cold.

The most important thing is that Li Er gained a lot of fame from it.

The name of one emperor through the ages is already a certainty.

"Everyone who loves you, do you have a book to play?" Li Er looked at all the civil and military officials and pondered.

From the words, Baiguan heard the joy in Li Er's heart.

Your Majesty is in a good mood today.

"Your Majesty, I have a book to play."

Dai Wei, Minister of the Household Department, stood up and saluted.

Li Er looked at Dai Wei, pondered and said: "Oh? What's Dai Aiqing going to say?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Anxi Protectorate has been established. Based on the former site of the ancient city of Xijiang, the three cities built are basically completed and will be opened to the outside world next year, but this..."

As Dai Wei spoke, he cut off his words.

Li Erdao: "Dai Aiqing can speak up if you have anything to say."

Dai Wei nodded, and responded: "It's just that the household department has not much money, and the people who will move to the western border have not yet been determined."

Hearing this, Li Er remained silent.

All the Chinese, military and military officials in the palace fell silent.

To put it bluntly, there are two problems, one is no one, and the other is no money.

If these two things are missing, no matter how many cities are built in Xijiang, it will be a piece of dead land.

Followed by.

Li Er stood up and said slowly, "Isn't the Ministry of Housing and Mangya Commercial Bank cooperating on the development of Xijiang? Why does the Ministry of Housing still have such a huge expenditure?"

After the words fell, all the officials in the palace turned their eyes to the corner of the palace.

In the corner, Qin Mu was peeling the dried fruit by himself.

Dai Wei hastily responded: "Your Majesty, the Mangya Trading Company has already invested a lot in this matter. Without the support of the son-in-law, how could they have built three cities in such a short period of time."

"Even the construction of the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion was greatly helped by the son-in-law."

This time, Dai Wei tried his best to defend Qin Mu.

Because this is indeed the case, the son-in-law is well aware of righteousness, and the household department will inevitably trouble him in the future.

It would be absolutely unwise to offend Qin Mu.

Hearing Dai Wei's words, Li Er nodded.

He also knows how much money the household department has.

Therefore, there is no need to verify how much Qin Mu contributed to this matter.

Dai Wei wouldn't lie to him, and Qin Mu didn't even bother to do such a thing of fame.

"Qin Mu." Li Er looked towards the corner and spoke quietly.

"Yes." Qin Mu got up and bowed slightly.

"The development of Xijiang is a joint operation between the imperial court and Mangya Trading Company. What do you think about this matter now?"

"It's very simple. Businessmen who settle down in the three cities of Western Xinjiang will be exempted from taxes for two years."

"Ah!" Li Er frowned, with anger on his face.

This is nothing wrong, don't mention running errands.

When it comes to doing things, there will be tax reductions and exemptions.

Tax relief.

If this reduction continues, he will no longer be an emperor.

"No!" Li Er said angrily, flicking his sleeves: "As the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty and the Duke of Zhen Guo, how can you do things so hastily? Without even thinking about it, let me reduce or exempt taxes. The money you treat me is all blown by the wind. ?”

After hearing Qin Mu's words, all the Chinese and military officials in the palace were restless.

"The son-in-law's words are indeed inappropriate. The imperial court has invested so much manpower, material resources, and financial resources, but in the end it is cheaper for merchants. How can this be done?"

"That's right, the son-in-law didn't consider this matter properly, no matter what, he must put the interests of the imperial court first."

"The son-in-law's words are reasonable. Merchants are chasing profit and have no fixed place to live. If there is such a policy, merchants who go to the western border will definitely flock to them."

All civil and military officials talked about it, each insisting on their own opinions, but most of them opposed it.

Qin Mu didn't care about the doubts in the hall, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, there is a reason for giving and receiving, you don't understand."

"If these decrees are promulgated, more and more businessmen will go to Xijiang to do business. Maybe it will take only two or three years to turn the three cities of Xijiang into the economically important cities of Datang."

"Your Majesty, don't just look at the benefits in front of you. The peak of Western Xinjiang's business will be two years later, and I don't need to tell you how much tax the court can collect at that time. Your Majesty knows it well."

Hearing this, Li Er frowned slightly.

In recent years, Datang's commerce has developed and prospered, and the tax revenue brought by commerce to the imperial court is seen by Li Er.

With a solid agricultural foundation.

Tax revenues do need business taxation to sustain.

This is the truth.

"Do you really have such confidence in the commercial development of Western Xinjiang?" Li Er looked at Qin Mu and asked quietly.

"Is there anything doubtful about this?" Qin Mu looked at Li Er and frowned slightly. "Geographical location, court policies, and the rapid development of business in the Tang Dynasty, I really can't think of a reason why Western Xinjiang's business cannot develop."

"Hu merchants can buy goods from the Great Tang Dynasty and sell goods from the Western Regions in the Western Xinjiang area, so why do they have to travel long distances to the Central Plains?"

"For Hu merchants, it will become a city full of gold."

After hearing this, Dai Wei interjected: "Master Consort, I have a doubt."

"Master Dai, please speak."

"What about the agriculture in the western Xinjiang area? Without agricultural support, how would the three cities in the western Xinjiang region develop."
