Chapter 33: Each has a ghost

If Your Majesty is not happy, he will be killed.

So the little official's face was pale with fright, and the whole person was not good.

When you go back to the place and boast that you have been summoned by Your Majesty, then you have to have the life to return to the place.

"Li Shan, it just so happens that the widow is also hungry, let's have dinner together!"

Yang Guang did not get angry, but smiled rarely, and motioned to Li Shan to order the imperial dining room to give a banquet.

This Yang Fu is a native of Luoyang and likes pasta, but Wang Chaogui is a southerner who likes to eat rice, and the little official never thought that one day, he would have the opportunity to be given a banquet in Daxing Palace?

This is a rare honor, you can boast of a lifetime, no, you can boast of several generations, the little official was surprised and delighted, and couldn't stop thanking.

In the bottom of my heart, I thought that there were folk rumors that His Majesty was the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven was moody and killed people at every turn.

But I didn't expect that when I entered and saw Your Majesty, he was so kind and tolerant, it was really a virtuous and wise monarch comparable to Yao Shun, and it was really a blessing for the Great Sui Dynasty.

The delicacies in the imperial dining room were all served, and according to the usual practice, when Emperor Yang of Sui ate, there were at least more than 40 dishes.

He didn't eat these dishes alone.

It's that what he can't eat after the meal is rewarded to the eunuchs below, figuratively Li Shan and others who are serving closely, and there are many dishes in the imperial dining room Emperor Yang of Sui just took a look at it, and the palace maid next to him immediately gave him cloth vegetables.

Yang Fu is a little better over there, after all, he is a Shangshu master, and he has lived in Luoyang City for a long time, and he can be regarded as well-informed.

As for Wang Chaogui, he has always coveted those steamed vegetables, as well as the crystal clear and fragrant rice, and was given rice for the first time, and secretly looked at Emperor Yang of Sui who was seated, and was grateful in his heart, and he was sincerely afraid that this meal was barely eight points full.

As for the little official, it was an eye-opener, no matter what it was, he felt that it was a delicacy in the world, and a dish of oil-drizzled eggplant made him eat the taste of fresh fish, and he only felt that if he could get lucky this time, he would go back.

This life is worth it even to die.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty summoned Hubu Shangshu to inquire about the salt industry, and the news of staying for dinner reached Yang Su's ears in the evening.

And Yang Fu went directly to the Yang Mansion after coming out of the palace, and told him carefully about what happened today, without that exaggerated expression on his face at this time.

"Your Majesty has no knowledge, and he actually said that he wanted to reduce the price of salt and increase taxes, what a big joke, I saw that the Great Sui Dynasty was exhausted, and it was a pity that I missed the last opportunity......"

Yang Fu said that Emperor Yang of Sui's question in the afternoon, he laughed shamefully, only feeling that His Majesty was mediocre and incompetent, and had no common sense at all.

It's just that such a mediocre person became the emperor, but a capable and virtuous person like Yang Gong lived under the people, how unfair this world is.

Yang Fu's words made Yang Su nod again and again, looking at him was also a little pleasing to the eye, and he only felt that it was the wisest choice to arrange him to the household department.

This man was faithful to him, and he was in charge of the purse, and if it was done properly, it would flow into his mansion.

"This year, Jin Wuwei and Qianniuwei have changed their weapons and armor, and the expenses are very large, and when the time comes, you will propose to increase the tax of 30% in the south of the Yangtze River, or simply add 20% of the taxes in the world......

Jin Wuwei is now in Liu Zhong's hands, and he has just secretly written a secret letter to Yang Su, saying that because the Son of Heaven does not like ministers to have too close relationships, sometimes it is inconvenient for him to go to the house, but if Yang Gong has any orders, just say it.

He can have today because of Yang Gong's kindness at the beginning.

This was said very sincerely, and even asked his wife to write a letter to Mrs. Yang, whose wife was the maid who served by Mrs. Yang's side, and the relationship with the Yang Mansion was naturally very close.

There is such a relationship, even if Yang Su is not the commander, but this Jin Wuwei seems to be still in his hands.

In this way, the equipment of Jin Wuwei Qianwei Niu has been updated, and the household department is very dedicated, and all local expenses are pressed, but these two places spend money very generously.

"Yes, yes, I will wait a few days, and then I will take the initiative to complain to Your Majesty, so that the tax will be increased by 30% in the world, and if the ministers discuss it, it will finally fall to 20% of the tax, no matter how it is enough, if it is not enough, then it will increase the tax on the salt industry, this is the most oily and watery place......"

Yang Fu was smiling at this time, and this year he had to quickly pick out some more money from the people of the world to supply Yang Gong to raise soldiers.

If you have military power in your hands, whoever owns this world.

The little official who went out of the palace with Wang Chaogui ate with his mouth full of oil, and at this time he thanked Wang Chaogui with satisfaction, and said, can you invite Lord Shilang to have a cup of tea?

The three of them entered the palace together, and seeing that His Majesty was quite concerned about the salt industry, Wang Chaogui thought about asking this little official more, about the situation of salt production in Yanjing, is there any way to increase the output of the salt industry?

If the production increases, according to His Majesty's idea, the price of salt should be lowered.

If that's the case, it will be every common man in the Great Sui Dynasty who will benefit in the end.

Wang Chaogui can be a household servant, although he will not worry about the country and the people, but he also has a sense of compassion, so the two simply chatted while walking and talking about the method of making salt from salt wells.

"The main reason is that there are too few salt wells, and the people below us also want to produce more salt, but this thing is not available in that place, the entire Great Sui Dynasty, such a large area, there are very few places that can produce salt, and when the salt is manufactured, the number of high-grade salt is less than two-three tenths, and the inferior salt is bitter to eat, and there are too many impurities, but even so, the output of that kind of salt is not much......"

When the little official talked about the situation in Yanjing, he was the first to say, but the idea was good, but the actual operation was really not good.

Since the first emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty, they have been thinking of looking for salt wells and increasing the output of the salt industry, but this thing is not something that can be found in a hurry.

"But Your Majesty is very concerned about this matter, there is nothing you can do over there, can you increase the output a little?"

"This, in fact, Yanjing is also debugging a new method, and it has already achieved initial results!"

The little official looked at Wang Chaogui, hesitated a little, and decided to tell the truth.

"Really? How much can you increase your yield? ”

"A salt well, a thousand catties can increase the number of five catties, in fact, it is not a lot......"

The little official said proudly, saying that they have been studying this secret for a long time, and it has only recently been considered a success, and they are still hesitant to report it.

"A thousand catties can increase by five catties, there are dozens of salt wells in the Great Sui Dynasty, in this way, it is indeed good, the next time Your Majesty asks about this matter, I can also answer truthfully, Your Majesty will definitely be happy......"

Wang Chaoyang's face was full of joy, the local salt well is really good, and this time they should be rewarded for their merits.
