Li Longji heard the answers of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and immediately understood that he was wrong. The profits made by their amusement park projects by Xiaobei and their amusement park projects are definitely very high, and the proportion is high.
Otherwise, the two of them admitted just now. In this situation, they didn't say the right thing, and they didn't want to directly deny their own words, so they gave such an answer.
"I don't believe it anymore, I can't think of it, everyone continues to think, it's nothing more than money." Li Longji said angrily, and then thought hard, looking serious.
The others also thought together that no one would bother Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
Li Longji didn't know how much loss he brought to the generals after he arrived in Wang Juan's room.
The generals thought that the emperor was talking to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, so the two of them must not be able to put their minds on fighting, so there was a little gloat in their hearts.
But it was this kind of thinking that made them slack off, especially the people in charge of the specific battalion and team below. They have had nothing to do. Only the brigade that went ashore was relatively busy, but they still didn’t notice. enemy.
This state of being unable to get tense makes them slower to react when faced with unexpected events.
In the Furong Garden, when various people were thinking about their own affairs and busy with their own arrangements, Xiaobei and others had already arrived in Old Liushu Village.
Liu Feifei came and picked up the train from Hongnong. When she saw the nine people of Beckham, Liu Feifei, who had been living in fear these days, felt much more relieved.
She didn't believe that there were officials in Datang that could contend against Xiaobei and the others. When Xiaobei got off the train, she gave Liu Feifei a hug, but she was short and could only be wrapped up above Liu Feifei's waist. Not to shoulders.
"Sister Feifei, don't worry, I have arranged someone to protect your brother, and it is probably done now. We plan to let him out, as long as he stays in there without suffering or suffering.
Then when I pass by, I want to see how the local officials in Jiangzhou explained to me that they should have been very honest, but who made the economic development too fast? Everyone started to make small calculations. . "
Beckham knew what Liu Feifei cared about most, so as soon as we met, she said what Liu Feifei most wanted to hear.
Sure enough, Liu Feifei showed a sweet smile on her face, nodded, and said, “Since you said it’s okay, then it’s absolutely okay. I believe your family can protect my good brother. Let’s go this time. There are more people coming from your house."
"My mother is here, so more people who protect and serve have followed. I will introduce you, come, follow me." Belle took Liu Feifei's hand, dragged it to the train, and waited for a while. My mother and Xiaoyuan's mother only came down, and Zhang Wang immediately said Xiao Bei.
"What are you running? You just ran down before the guards were finished. What should I do if something goes wrong?"
"Impossible, how could something happen, mother, and auntie, I will introduce you, this is Liu Feifei from Lao Liushu Village. It was her brother who went to other places to help us sell things and was caught by the yamen there. I live, Sister Feifei, this is my mother, this is my aunt, and this is Xiaoyuan's mother."
Xiaobei did not answer what his mother said just now, but started to introduce it to both sides.
Liu Feifei naturally received the good treatment she deserved. She was dragged by two elders to ask about this and that, and she received a lot of gifts. Walk along the old willow village.
When passing through the county seat of Hongnong County, Xiaobei also made some comparisons and found that the county seat now is better than before, especially the amusement park that is to be compensated for them is under construction.
She is looking forward to building it quickly, and having a play by herself when the time comes.
Then Xiaobei got together with eight other people and came up with a way to exchange half of the profits for tax.
Now they are almost at the Old Liushu Village, and the road under their feet is many times better than the last time they came. The main reason is that water was sent here when they came last time. In some places, they have to wade through the water to get there.
Now they are all replaced with concrete roads.
"Sister Feifei, how is life in the village now?" Beckham asked Liu Feifei, who was sitting in the car, looking at the backwards scenery outside.
"Days are much better than before. Since the last time I went to Hongnong to help weave baskets or something, our village has become famous. Many rich people want to buy baskets and call for baskets from Lao Liushu Village. It is strong and durable.
You know the willow tree, even if it’s a wicker root, it can grow up on the ground, so we made a lot of various things, not just bought by Hongnong people, we piled many together. , Sent it by train once, and it happened to be delivered to Luoyang.
Our house has changed. It is no longer the short and unsturdy mud house you saw last time. Now we have used bricks and cement. The people who were looking for Zhengzheng construction will repair it. of.
The people of Zhengzheng Construction saw that they were in our village, and they did not charge manual fees. They just ate the food we cooked, and we cooked them a lot of delicious food. "
Liu Feifei said as she gestured, she looked very excited, and the smile on her face was no less.
Xiaobei nodded violently, and then happily said, "That's great, isn't it a two-story building? Since it was built by a Zhengzheng building, I will definitely propose to your house to build a two-story building."
"Yes, yes, on the second floor, I live on the upper floor, and I can see far from standing on it, and now there is no need for us to go outside to buy things on my own side. Someone is dedicated to transporting things to the bridge. The other side, there is waiting for us to buy."
Liu Feifei also nodded, and then talked about various interesting things.
Beckham listened carefully, knowing the changes here from Liu Feifei.
First, Lao Liushu Village had not suffered any losses during the disaster. In addition, he had made a lot of money by helping with work in the past. At the same time, he also helped the village's willow weave trade to gain a reputation.
As a result, they make more money from their wicker weaves. Now unless they directly organize a train to transport a carriage by themselves, they don't sell it elsewhere at all.
It’s all someone else who buys it and then sells it elsewhere. If you want to talk about this willow, the old Liushu Village is really good at craftsmanship, but it won’t make many people willing to buy it.
They can make it up by themselves, even if they don’t look so beautiful on the outside, they just need to be usable. Doesn’t the dung-picking basket need to be gorgeous
The reason why more people are willing to buy willow weaves from Old Liushu Village is because they saved lives when they helped Hongnong rebuild.
It was a person who went up to the top of the third floor of a restaurant and worked there. Suddenly, he accidentally fell from the top. The moment he fell, he grabbed a wicker basket.
As a result, he put the basket under his body. Apart from sweating from the fright, there was nothing wrong with him, and no small wounds were seen.
Then everyone went to look at the basket. The basket changed only slightly, and it returned to its original shape with the pedals, and the wicker did not break.
Everyone turned to look at the basket, and found that the wicker used to weave the basket was very tough, the weaving was very fine, and the outside grinding was very smooth, with no burrs at all.
This is really a good basket. Otherwise, how could it save a life? Just ask, who made the basket? After asking, I realized that it was someone from Old Liushu Village who had provided it.
From that moment on, the willow weaves in Old Liushu Village became famous, with good materials, good workmanship, and good luck.
In this way, as long as people around want to buy a basket, basket, etc., they will choose the products of Lao Liushu Village.
When there is demand, there will naturally be production. The people in Lao Liushu Village are basically busy every day, busy weaving all kinds of things, and merchants come over there, waiting for the people in Lao Liushu Village to take the things they want to sell. Come, they give money to buy directly.
There are more merchants here, but the quantity of output in the village is limited, so the merchants wait a lot, but the ones that can really buy are few.
As soon as a smart businessman saw this, he didn't collect the willow woven altogether. He hired a few people to be his mates and started selling soup cakes, such as noodles and wontons, on the bridge. The noodles were bought directly in Old Liushu Village. There are also the cucumber shreds sprinkled on top, and other things are also bought in the village.
The village has its own seeds, which makes this merchant's business very good.
When other merchants saw it, they also thought of a way, not only to buy things from the old Liushu Village, but also to bring things that are not in the village from outside. When the people in the village come out to sell willow weaves, they will naturally take a look at other things.
So in winter, a market appeared outside the old Liushu Village, waiting for the arrival of spring now, the market will become more prosperous.
The nine people of Xiaobei were very happy to hear it. As long as the village is good, it is their happiness, but the two adults and their mother have heard many things from it, and even remembered things "a long time ago".
At that time, Zhang Wang and Zhuangzi, although they were still able to live normally, they definitely couldn't say how good they were. Compared with the present, that was a world of difference.
Later, it was Xiaobao and Juanjuan who helped their development a little bit. First they set up a market, and then they kept making things out, all kinds of good things.
Up to now, Sanshui County is no different from his own family. Zhuangzi randomly finds a family and puts it in a normal place. They are all local wealthy families.
"The life in a place is good or not, just look at whether there is a market or not, and you will know what is on the market. Xiaobei, you should ask the officials of various places to check the market in the place under their control. .
Only from the market can we know what the local people lack, what their living habits, etc., instead of checking the various accounts reported, and tax catalogs, because many of the markets are organized by themselves and do not collect taxes. "
Xiaobei's mother Zhang Wang thought about the past and the situation that he wanted to see now, analyzed it, and said to Xiaobei.
Beibei nodded repeatedly: "That is, don't just sit in the yamen all day long and go out for a stroll. The real magistrate should be a qualified farmer when he sees the land. When he sees the business, he He is a qualified businessman. When he sees a tool, he can make it even if he doesn't require it. He must at least know the principle of making and using the tool.
In this way, he can truly be a parent official for the people, instead of staying in the yamen every day. I decided to go back and discuss with the emperor's uncle and let the emperor's uncle tell the officials for the review.
Don’t just pay attention to how much taxes are paid by officials in a certain place this year, because sometimes, tax exemption is the most appropriate, giving the people a chance to develop savings.
They are exempted from taxes for two years. Maybe the amount of local finances in the past two years has been small, which makes people look bad. But two years later, the people use the tax-free money to buy good tools, or do business for development. Get up, then this area will naturally have money. "
Zhang Wangshi listened to his daughter's analysis so thoroughly, the smile on his face was even stronger. Who else's children could understand so much at such a young age? Except for Xiaobao and the cuckoo, they seem to have never seen it before.
"Xiaoyuan, you can also talk about it." Xiaoyuan's mother saw that Xiaobei was right, and immediately let her son show off.
Xiaoyuan was very helpless: "What is there to say, is that some officials always want to be promoted. For example, Sanshui County has doubled its fiscal revenue this year, so when the officials are evaluated, they will be given a promotion. Wait, he ascended.
So the second official who came to Sanshui County saw that it was so easy to get promoted. Well, he started to sell the original things in the county. For example, there was a piece of land. He sold it for a low price. He sold five thousand sticks for ten thousand sticks.
Then he waited. When the evaluation was about to be done, he made a random title and turned the two thousand guan into the local fiscal revenue. However, the piece of land was not written, instead he made a special evaluation, and just put a piece of it. Well, it turned into a wasteland, and the account said that it had sold a thousand coins.
As a result, the Ministry of officials assessed that the fiscal revenue of Sanshui County this year has increased again, and the new county magistrates have also been upgraded. In this way, a group of county magistrates tried to sell the things in the county, just to create a kind of The illusion of an increase in fiscal revenue.
In fact, every official promotion will cause great harm to the people of Sanshui County. When the people cannot bear it one day, then Sanshui County will no longer be a county, but will fall to the point of Xia County. "
"Yeah! Yes, mother sounds a bit reasonable, so you will tell your majesty that in the future, it is not to evaluate the fiscal revenue of that place, but to include the local resource consumption level. Which official consumes the least local resources? , The more income you get, which one will be rated as the best."
Xiaoyuan's mother touched Xiaoyuan's head, exaggerated, and then analyzed.
Liu Feifei listened to the side and nodded constantly and said, "It's like this. Because of this year's floods, Hongnong County has been exempted from taxes and taxes for two years. My father said, in the past two years, we can save money. Down a lot, and then used to fill in the depression in front.
In this way, we have more land to plant willow trees. When the willow trees grow up, the woods will be valuable. My dad is also planning to set up a school in the village, a willow weaving school, to teach people who are willing to learn willow weaving skills.
At the same time, the people in the village can continue to think about how to weave wicker into something more beautiful, so that wicker can not only be used as a tool, but also become...be... ”
"Being an art, isn't it? In that case, it is estimated that the willow weaving of your old Liushu Village can become one of Hongnong's pillar industries."
Beckham took over and said.
"Yes." Liu Feifei glanced at the willow trees on the roadside outside, smiled happily, and said, "That's it, but if the two years of taxation are unavoidable, we have to borrow money. We need everyone in a village to earn it. Only by pooling his money can he buy that large swath of land.
That's what you just said. Officials should not always stare at a little bit of interest in front of them. Give the people time to accumulate, and then the people will return more taxes to the government.
Just like a chicken laying eggs, the benefit of staring at you is to eat eggs directly. For the long-term plan in the future, you will keep the eggs to hatch the chicks. When there are more chickens, there will naturally be more eggs. "
"Yeah, Sister Feifei said so good, I want to tell the emperor uncle, I'll give you credit, let's bear with it, eat less eggs, raise some chickens, the emperor uncle has so much money, what are you doing at the bank? It's better to take it out to raise chickens and eat more eggs in the future."
Beckham's eyes were bright, and he wanted to fly back to the capital immediately and talk to the emperor in person about what he had seen along the way today.
Liu Feifei was embarrassed by Xiaobei's praise, her face turned red, and she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I'm just chatting with you, there is no credit."
"Yes, chat is not the same as chat. We can directly determine many important things in the Tang Dynasty, because I can find the emperor. As long as I give a reason, the emperor will adopt it. I think about it, let The emperor's uncle will also make you an official.
First appoint a scattered official, then you will learn more, and then you will get a real power official, otherwise you will be given a real power position at the beginning. If you make a mistake, you will cause losses.
Yes, just do it, anyway, the emperor's uncle has a lot of officials in his hands. "
When Xiaobei was talking, he decided on Liu Feifei's official position. As for what it was, which product, Xiaobei still didn't know, and he had to wait for the emperor's uncle to ask it clearly.
Liu Feifei was taken aback, and at the same time she couldn't believe it, now she has an official position? As a child, I immediately became nervous: "I, I won't be an official, I don't know anything, Xiaobei, I'm afraid, don't let me be, okay."
"If you don’t know how to learn to be taken, it’s not too difficult. If others can be, we can be. I guess some officials are not as good as you. They only know how to take the imperial examination, and when they really do practical things, they get confused. Give it all to others. Anyone can be an official like this. You are right to listen to me. I really can’t. I will teach you. If I can’t, I will just ask my brothers and sisters.”
Beckham continued to persuade.
Liu Feifei did not refuse this time, but opened her eyes wide, but her gaze was very erratic. When she watched the same thing moving in the opposite direction as the car moved, she fantasized about what she would do when she became an official. .
It was not until he heard all kinds of noisy sounds from the market in front of Old Liushu Village from a distance that Liu Feifei came to a sense of clarity from her fantasy, and said with a smile:
"If I become an official, I will repair the market first. At least the drains must be repaired. You can't pour water on the ground casually. Yes, I will do such a small thing first, and I won't know the big thing."
