Three people, you come and I’m angry at each other. For a long time, I found that nothing can be saved, everything is important, and all money must be spent.

And the only thing that can be saved is actually in Zhao Gou
In Zhao Gou, it will take a lot of money to build more palaces and play facilities by itself, which is also the only and large expenditure of state affairs.
If the theory wants to save money, it is only from this aspect that we can save some.
Zhao Shen face suddenly very bitter.
"Emperors need to build a new palace in the near future, renovate three slightly damaged palaces, build two big stages, add a number of furniture, paintings, porcelain and so on, and it takes about 500,000 yuan back and forth, and …"
Ye Yiwen looked at Zhao Shen getting worse and worse, and his complexion became lower and lower.
"And what?"
Zhao Shen has a slightly hoarse voice.
"And this is a preliminary budget. If the process is not smooth enough, it may increase at any time. The estimated increase may be 200,000 to 300,000, and … this is this year, and there may not be any expenses for him …"
Ye yi asked in a smaller voice.
Zhao Shen sat in the chair with his head in his hands and fell into deep distress.
The government finances are so difficult that it needs to develop, recruit soldiers and repair roads. Now the city has to add luxury to Zhao Gou’s luxury palace to satisfy his personal enjoyment.
500,000 yuan is still a preliminary budget, and just this money is enough for Zhao Shen to build the army and raise troops for half a year, which is enough for him to survive this difficult time.
Has Zhao Gou put this country at ease?
Does he really think that after abdication, everything in this country will be nothing to him, and he will enjoy it without taking responsibility?
Does he really think like this?
Three Zaifu etiquette focused on Zhao Shen and Zhao Shen’s distress and looked up at them.
"Why don’t you discuss it with the emperor?"
Zhao Shen was embarrassed to ask the minister for help.
Shi Haonai said that he had been blacklisted by Zhao Shen before he offended Zhao Gou. Now it is estimated that he can’t get into the Wanshou Palace and can’t help without seeing Zhao Gou.
Ye yi asked and Zhou Lin looked at each other and felt nai each other.
Shi Hao was once appreciated by Zhao Gou, and now he can’t even speak Zhao Gou, let alone the two of them.
But they expressed their willingness to give it a try
The result, of course, is very real. There is nothing to talk about. Don’t even think about it.
Zhao Gou said that he was no longer an emperor. He had something to go to the emperor. He was an old man who was no longer an emperor. There was no need to spend any money on any major domestic and national events.
He also asked Zhou Lin and ye yi to send a message to Zhao Shen, which probably means that you were chosen as the emperor because you could handle the country and let me have less troubles and enjoy more.
I have been an emperor for decades, and I have saved Dasong from extinction. I have done my best for the country and the country, and there is nothing to give to the country.
I’m old and weak, and I don’t know how many years I can live. I want to enjoy what I didn’t enjoy before I die. Can’t you satisfy me with this requirement?
Now, not only can’t you handle the country, but you have to disturb my life and let me continue to suffer. Then what is my abdication? If you can’t solve this problem, do you still have the face to sit on the throne?
Don’t tell me that if he can’t solve it by himself, you should choose another good man to be the emperor and abdicate yourself, so that you won’t worry!
This is very ugly and embarrassing for Zhao Shen.
There’s no way to be filial. He can’t do anything about it. Did Zhao Gou take the initiative to give him the throne? He didn’t get it himself. He couldn’t do anything that would harm Zhao Gou’s interests, even if he was really disgusting
Extremely resistant to Zhao Shen’s various reasons, I played the idea of selling officials and titles
He knows that the imperial court has no money, but the local landlords, powerful businessmen and wealthy businessmen have all the money in a rich country. It is best to ask them for money if they want to solve the financial crisis.
But you can’t rob it, otherwise it will cause rebellion, and you can exchange the most valuable things of the court.
The most valuable things in the imperial court’s hands are power and official position.
Shi Hao, Zhou Lin and Ye Yiwen are quite opposed to the idea of Zhao Shen. If they are unwilling to accept Zhao Shen’s opinion, they think that Zhao Shen is fooling around and smearing the royal signboard of Dasong.
"It’s a good idea to sell officials and titles when the imperial court is in danger. Why are you so opposed?"
Zhao Shen was very angry and nu way "if you object, get the money out for me. Don’t blame me for selling titles and titles! Choose for yourself! "
Shi Hao and others privately discussed that the two ways to solve the national finance are not to open up sources and reduce expenditure, but to cut expenditure. There are too many things to be done, and energy conservation is almost enough.
Then it can also be open source
How to open source?
Asking landlords and gentry to collect taxes is the quickest and most profitable way, but it means that they have to change their own lives, and it is very unrealistic to think about it with officials and landlords and gentry. This way, Wang Anshi’s name stinks and the grave grass is very high.
The three of them have the heart to save the country, but they can’t start from this aspect without their own lives.
Then we can also do it from a less central place
"Scholars, farmers, businessmen and businessmen are also the richest people in the end. If you need money badly, you can only turn to businessmen."
Zhou Lin sighed with emotion, "Commercial profits are like black magic, but the money is doubled in a short time when transferring goods. Merchants earn a lot of money, but they don’t pay so much tax. Especially those maritime merchants and Fanbang maritime merchants earn a lot of money."
"I think this method is better than collecting agricultural taxes from gentry."
Ye Yi asked Nai, "The opposition will not be so strong, and it will be passed as soon as possible. It is more appropriate to see the money as soon as possible, right?"
Chapter 92 I’ll bear the blame of the bitter people
To businessmen?
Shi Hao pondered for a while and shook his head.
"We can’t say that we want to increase the business tax at the beginning, but we should say that we want to increase the agricultural tax from the landlords and gentry and apportion it until they rise up against it, so that the resistance will be much smaller."
Ye yi asked and Zhou Lin, after listening to repeated praises, felt that Shi Hao deserved to be a wily politician. Bah … This method of self-serious politicians is really wonderful.
The two men praised Shi Hao without any happiness.
"I’m afraid the business tax alone is not enough for businessmen. Even if it is doubled, it is estimated that it will not be enough for military countries to consume."
He said that Ye Yiwen was a little sad.
"Don’t still want to levy agricultural tax? To the gentry? "
Shi Hao shook his head.
"That’s too difficult. At present, the court is in urgent need of money and it takes too much to negotiate with the gentry. Is it really coming or … increasing taxes?"
Ye yi asked and Zhou Lin glances at each other to know Shi Hao’s meaning.
Either add a little more to the already heavy burden of the people and squeeze more oil and water out of them.
This is not without negative effects, so Shi Hao’s face is not good.
"When the national situation is difficult, the people can suffer for a while, and I’ll bear the blame. It’s just this time. After this time, the tax will be restored to its original state, so that people can be reassured. By the way, add another ten … five pence to the salt price."
After a moment’s hesitation, Shi Hao stood up and said, "Do you want to go with me to visit us?"
Zhou Lin and Ye Yiwen looked at each other.
Although Shi Hao led the Privy Council, the emperor believed that Shi Hao Zhou Lin and Ye Yiwen had not yet gained a firm foothold in many things and had to listen to Shi Hao’s advice.
But they don’t want to get involved in this matter.
It’s not so easy to get rid of this stigma once you take it on.
"Let’s go, my cousin, and I have a husband."
Zhou Lin got up and thanked Shi Hao.
Shi Hao nodded and went to find Zhao Shen himself.
Then a few days later, the news came that the imperial court was going to increase the agricultural tax. It is said that the way to increase the tax is not simply to increase the burden on the people and scrape the money from the poor, but to increase the tax according to the amount of land.
