Chapter 293
After a month of visiting and thinking, Gu Lei made up some suggestions, wrote a letter and handed it to the Night King.
After reading it, the Night King specially summoned the ministers.
"Gu Qing, this booklet is really well written. Please tell me in detail, let us all listen to it. How to arrange it in the future, there should be a charter, which is very important to Fandi."
Only when the people live and work in peace and contentment can the land be productive and profitable. Otherwise, where will the money for building river embankments to support refugees come from?
"Yes, in fact, the content on this brochure was given to me by my wife after long-term accumulation of thinking. I visited the villagers, checked several existing villages on the spot, and went to further villages. I did find some problems. Wrote this diary."
"Oh, it was written by your daughter-in-law. I really didn't expect her to be so talented."
Ye Wang was pleasantly surprised when he heard that, but he was not surprised. He knew that girl Li Yu was capable, she was very low-key and humble, and she would not show off or show off.
"Look, Your Highness."
Gu Lei showed His Highness Li Yu's notebook.
Ye Wang read it carefully and handed it to Boss Li, "Aiqing, you are really blessed, this pair of sons and daughters did not embarrass you."
"Every child's home, I don't know the seriousness, how much it will cost."
Boss Li shook his head, not boasting a word on his face, but he was very proud in his heart.
"Father-in-law, in fact, I don't think my wife's idea is completely unacceptable. Rebuilding the town will benefit the surrounding villagers. Although talking about money is a bit vulgar, the villagers need money to eat and support their families. Only when the town develops can businessmen make money." With taxation, farmers can only plan food in the fields, which is bitter, and they are far less rich than businessmen.”
"Here, Yu'er said that the merchant's tax can be increased appropriately, and some support and convenience can be given. If the merchant pays a lot of taxes and has made outstanding contributions, it is obvious to all that two generations can let their children study for the imperial examination. I think this method can consider."
"There is also the tax on shipping. If it is done well, it will be a big deal. The profit of shipping is very high, and it brings in a lot of money every year. The money for repairing the embankment is the credit of shipping."
Night King is in charge of his own family, so he naturally knows that Chai Mi is expensive.
"Your Highness, this tax increase is a big deal. If it doesn't work, it will shake the foundation. Merchants are not as smooth as farmers, honest and obedient. It is not easy to ask for more money from them. That girl's thinking is too simple. I am afraid that they will unite and gather crowds." make trouble."
Boss Li also saw that Li Yu’s opinion was risky.
Night King shook his head, "I think her opinion is very good. To tell you the truth, I have long wanted to increase taxes on merchants, but I haven't dared to make too much of a move. Now your daughter has given me better ideas and ideas."
"You mean rebuilding the town?"
"That's right, encourage refugees and businessmen to build towns, give them preferential treatment and benefits, encourage everyone to do scientific research, and increase official positions. For example, the Ministry of Industry not only needs construction talents, but also farmers. The Department of Mathematics needs more talents who can calculate. , and other positions require people, and you don’t have to stick to fame.”
"The official position cannot be given too high, otherwise it will be difficult to control."
"Okay, you guys can help me think of a specific charter, submit it and let's discuss it carefully. It would be great if the girl can come."
"No, let Leizi do it, he will do it."
Boss Li shook his head. It’s not a good thing to let his daughter out of the limelight. It’s enough to keep the benefits in his hands. Making a fortune in silence is the way to make a living.
"Okay, Leizi, you lead someone to do this."
"yes."
Gu Lei immediately bowed, and sneakily glanced at his father-in-law, but was glared at by Boss Li, who shrank his neck and dared not speak, and the Night King laughed out loud.
After leaving the door, Boss Li explained, "Don't mention Yu'er in front of everyone in the future, Mu Xiuyu will be destroyed by Lin Feng."
Gu Lei looked at him anxiously, lowered his head and said, "Uncle, I just don't want to be greedy for Mo Yuer's credit..."
"You are a husband and wife. You are a man and a family member. You must learn to protect her, not only with force, but also with your brain. A girl's reputation cannot withstand destruction. She has a strong personality and cannot tolerate sand. She is easily impulsive in everything. Stay safe. It doesn't matter who the family is, I just hope that your husband and wife will be harmonious and safe and smooth."
"Yes, the child remembers."
Boss Li specially told, "Let her help you in the back, and you earn a future in the front. Whether it's good for one person or not, it's really good for a family."
"Yes, as for the construction of towns, I think it's better to build a small town first, and then go from small to large."
Boss Li nodded in satisfaction.
"How is the training of the Grange kids?"
They are all a group of children. Boss Li usually only watches them once in a while, so there is no need to keep an eye on them like the group of children like the fourth Li.
"Present, the last time I came back from the suppression of bandits, I can endure hardships, and I have something in my heart. Yu'er is really good, what does she look like, she is down-to-earth and capable."
Gu Lei admired his daughter-in-law very much.
"You often go to stare and beat, sometimes I can't take care of it. The progress of children and grandchildren is the most important thing, and you must not slack off."
"Yes, uncle, the academy said to let Yu'er be a master, and give the Gu family three places every year. Grandpa agreed. Look..."
Gu Lei needs to seek the approval of his old father-in-law, otherwise his wife will be scolded again.
"Go, go if you want, don't be too ostentatious, and be measured in your actions. Not all my sons will let her, and she will be in trouble if she breaks someone."
Boss Li is worried about his daughter.
In the eyes of parents, no matter how old a child is, they are still children, unsteady and need to be beaten all the time.
"Yes, I remember."
"First select those who have meritorious service to go to the academy, and strive to lift up the selected ones. You can't waste your efforts. Opportunities are rare and can't be wasted."
"yes."
"Let's go home for dinner today, that knife looks great, I have something else to tell you."
Boss Li told him to go home for dinner.
In the afternoon, Gu Lei went back to the mansion and talked to his grandfather, and then took his wife back to Li's house for dinner.
"Grandpa, mother, I brought you the little pickles made by Grandma Fifth. The sweet and sour taste is delicious."
Li Yu's popularity in the Gu family is getting better and better, and she will give her a copy of everything.
I have to say that what she did was more careful and heart-warming than Gu Lei, and indirectly helped him stabilize the position of Patriarch.
"Then have a taste, you didn't go to training today."
"I didn't go, I'm playing with eagles at home today, and they will be mature in two months."
Ms. Wang shook her head and glanced at her, "You're about to become a dude playing eagle and dog fights, and so is Uncle Gu, who has spoiled you."
"snort!"
"It's okay, mother-in-law, Yu'er plays the eagle to contact the messenger, not for fun."
Gu Lei hurried forward to bring a cup of tea to his mother-in-law, and smoothed things over with a smile.
"Don't spoil her all the time, no matter if she can go to heaven."
Wang stared at her daughter, unruly, crossing her legs, shaking her legs, like a female bandit.
"I will take them to hunt, mount and shoot in a few days, and practice tracking in the wild. It will probably not be back until half a month."
"Then you go, I'm at home."
Gu Lei responded.
