Chapter 896

Wende Di was also curious about who the anonymous was.

On the desk, there are more than ten issues of "Zhou life show".

As for the analysis of war and taxation, Wende emperor looked over and over again.

Every article can be recited word for word.

"According to the anonymous analysis, relying solely on agricultural tax can not support a one-year war at all, and can only increase taxes. If the war lasted for several years, more than ten years, the burden of the common people would be increased by more than ten times than that of the Taiping period. Ten times of taxes and corvee, no wonder the small people went bankrupt and became bandits. "

Wende was afraid.

If it was not for the sufficient business tax in these years, he would also step on the old road of all dynasties, increase taxes and corvee, and crush the small people.

A year or two later, the whole territory of the great Zhou will be surrounded by flames of war.

The court continued to increase taxes and sent troops to suppress anti thieves.

At that time, the prefectures of Dazhou will be smashed and the people will be in dire straits.

In order to support the operation of the imperial court, we had to live beyond our means and collect taxes in advance for the next year, the next year, or even ten years later.

It's insane.

The consequences are unimaginable.

Wende breathed a breath.

Fortunately, although Hubu is poor, the business tax, salt and iron tax and tariff collected by the ministry can barely meet the needs of the front line. There is no need to increase taxes and corvee for the time being.

The only problem is food.

If the court throws a lot of money to buy grain, the price of grain will rise.

"Who said last time that all the food in the camp came from the south?" he asked suddenly

Chang enleng was stunned for a moment, and his brain turned quickly. He bowed over and said, "reply to your majesty, it's the young minister of Dali temple."

"How did he know that all the food in the camp came from the south?"

"I don't know."

"Send someone to find out. Let's see if the Ministry of housing can follow the example of the refugee camp and find a way to transport food from the south. "

"Yes, old slave."

Wende Di asked again, "is the anonymous identity clear?"

Chang en shook his head and said with trembling: "the life show of Zhou Dynasty does not know the identity of the unknown."

"Ridiculous! It is a perfunctory word. Is it Gu Jiu who makes trouble from it

"The old slave is guilty, but the old slave does not know."

Wende emperor snorted coldly, got up and walked around the hall with his hands on his back.

"If you can write such profound and incisive articles, he should be used by the imperial court. You go to Cui Qi. If you can't, you can find Gu Jiu. According to my instructions, we must find out the lost names. "

"Comply with the order!"

Chang en leads the errand. First, he sends his son to test Cui Qi's attitude.

Cui Qi did not enter the oil and salt industry, but said that he did not know who he was.

Chang en clenched his teeth and said, "if you don't eat or drink, you will be punished! If we come forward in person, we don't believe that he doesn't say anything. "

Taking advantage of the rotating rest, Chang en goes out of the palace and blocks Cui Qi in Wenqing bookstore.

"Good to meet you, master seven."

"Early this morning, sparrows are chirping in the branches. Who am I? It's Chang Gonggong."

"The seven masters are not the same as they used to be, and they are not inferior to each other!"

Chang en looks at the backyard of Wenqing Academy.

The huge house is divided into several areas by walls.

Cui Qi leads Chang en to the office area and entertains him in the public housing.

"Ha ha ha, father-in-law Chang is really funny. Please have a taste of this year's new tea. "

Chang en gave Cui Qi a face and took a sip. He asked casually, "is the old Marquis OK?"

Chang en refers to the Duke of Zhenguo, the elder brother of empress Cui Zhen and the father of Cui Qi.

He was originally the Duke of Zhenguo and was promoted to be the Marquis of Zhenguo by Emperor Wende.

"Thank you for your concern. My father is OK."

Chang en chatted, "I haven't seen the old Marquis enter the palace for a long time. What are you busy with recently?"

Cui Qi laughed and said, "busy with self-cultivation, sorting out the genealogy."

Chang en said: "it is the time for the imperial court to employ people. The old Marquis should come out to share the worries of his majesty for the court."

Cui Qi shook his head again and again, "my father is too old to give the imperial court no trouble to your majesty."

Chang en seemed to smile, "seven masters in Wenqing bookstore, I heard that it was like a fish in water?"

Cui Qi laughed, "my father-in-law, I was a dandy. What I played was to eat, drink and have fun. It just fits in with Wenqing publishing house. Wenqing bookstore, said to be a bookshop, is actually a place for people to enjoy themselves. "

Chang en ha ha sneer, "the purpose of our house today, I think seven masters have guessed it."

"I don't dare to speculate at will. Please make it clear." Cui Qi said politely.

Chang en is no nonsense, "Your Majesty wants to know the identity of the unknown, please come to the imperial court as an official. This is your Majesty's instruction. The seven masters should know what is at stake. "

Cui Qi looks strange.

Chang en pick eyebrow, some dissatisfaction, "seven master still want to continue to hide?"Cui Qi hesitated for a moment, "do you really want to know the identity of the unknown?"

"Your Majesty wants to know that we are under orders."

"To be honest with my father-in-law, I don't know the identity of the unknown. Why don't you go to Xiaozhu and ask. "

Recently, Gu Jiu, with her children, has been living in Xiaozhu.

Chang en frowned at the word Xiaozhu.

He asked Cui Qi, "you are the actual person in charge of the weekly life show. How can you not know the author of the article published on the life show? Seven masters don't want to fool our family. "

"I dare not fool my father-in-law. The article was sent by Xiaozhu, and I was only responsible for reviewing and publishing. I don't know who wrote the article. "

Chang en's heart suddenly jumped.

Trouble.

He really didn't want to go up with Gu Jiu, but his majesty should do something about it.

Cui Qi gave him advice, "or I'll accompany my father-in-law to Xiaozhu."

Chang Gonggong snorted, "no! We can find a place. "

Is this a problem that can't be found?

Cui Qi was not forced.

Chang en left Wenqing publishing house, not in a hurry to go to Xiaozhu.

After a stroll in Xinmin County, he was delayed for an hour before he got on the coach to Xiaozhu.

Xiaozhu Porter did not inform, directly invited Chang en in.

Chang en Leng for a moment, "do you know our family?"

"The Porter said," my wife said that if Chang gong-in-law comes, you don't need to report, please come in directly. "

"Did your wife know that we would come?"

"Wenqing book office has sent a notice."

I see.

He also thought that Gu Jiu had the ability to foretell.

The water Pavilion in the atrium, tea and snacks are ready, and the maid is playing the piano.

Chang Gonggong came to the waterside pavilion and finally met Gu Jiu.

"Madame, you're in a good mood!"

"Father Chang is a rare guest. Please have a seat."

Gu Jiu greets with a smile.

Duke Chang took his seat.

Gu Jiu said, "my father-in-law seldom comes to Xiaozhu. He must try some snacks made by my cook. The snacks in the world restaurant are learned from my cook. "

No wonder the restaurant always praises me. Madame, by good means, has turned the sale of the carriage into a dim sum business without any delay. "

Nowadays, people go to Huanyu car sales center every day, not to buy a car, but to pack snacks from Huanyu restaurant.

Many people speculate that the profits of Huanyu restaurant alone can support the personnel of world transportation.

Just like when we built a toll gate, we only had the concept of toll gate in our mind. Did not expect to be able to complete the rest station business.

Rest stations are even more profitable than toll booths.

Nowadays, the combination of car buying and dim sum selling is another innovation.

The world is an eye opener.

Even Cheng en Bo Zhu Ci, who has been doing business all his life, often laments that he is old and can't compare with the young people now.

Gu Jiu modestly said: "my father-in-law praises me wrongly! The dim sum business is just a small way. It's not worth mentioning. "

"Madame is too modest."

They were drinking tea and chatting, and some of them didn't get to the point.

Gu Jiu is not in a hurry.

Chang en is not in a hurry.

From the carriage, they talked about the northwest war, the Weishui River on March 3, and Jiangling mansion.

"My family has heard that Jiangling mansion has changed a lot in a few years. The business of the four seas commercial banks in Jiangling mansion is flourishing. "

Gu Jiu said with a smile: "Sihai merchants just want to bring convenience to the people and make a little profit by the way."

Chang en laughs, "Madam can always say something so beautiful. It's hard to imagine how to write such incisive, solid content and detailed data. "

Gu Jiu picks eyebrow, "is Chang Gong misunderstood what?"

"Madame wants to deny that the anonymous author of" Zhou life show ", isn't it you

"Not Mrs. Ben, of course." Gu Jiu laughs, "who misled Chang Gong in the end and even misunderstands that the anonymous is my wife. I haven't read a few of my wife's books. Where can I write such profound articles? "

"If Madame is not anonymous, who is it? Cui Qi told us that the article was sent to the newspaper by Xiaozhu. In addition to his wife, we really can't think of Gu Jiu not impatient, told the maid, "go to the eldest son's study, and bring the articles he wrote over the years, and show them to father-in-law Chang."

The servant girl took orders and left.

Chang's face changed. He turned blue and white, as if he had opened a dye shop.

No way!

It must be impossible!

Where can a child think of a problem that the ministers in the court can't think of, he can write it out.

It must be a cover up.Chang en said in a sharp voice, "do you dare to write? Even let the young master take his place. "

Gu Jiu shakes his head with a smile. "After father-in-law Chang has read my brother-in-law's article, we will discuss this issue again."
