Chapter 487: Persuasion (3)
"Even if His Royal Highness King Su is holding such a vicious plan, we will wait...... We won't sit still! ”
King Chengling gritted his teeth and glared at Zhao Hongrun, but his tone was no longer as confident as he was.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and then smiled: "This is a bit unexpected by this king...... This king thought that the clan uncle would nod. ”
"Nod?" King Chengling laughed miserably, looked at Zhao Hongrun, and said bitterly: "Since I know that after His Highness overthrows the Zongfu, it will be our people's turn next, how can I dig my own grave?" ”
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun frowned and asked, "When did this king say that he would deal with the clan uncles?" ”
"If this is not the case, why did His Royal Highness King Su suppress us and others? Obviously, we have never offended Your Highness. ”
Looking at King Chengling's face, Zhao Hongrun thought slightly, and immediately understood: Oh, he wants me to give him a promise.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun was not in a hurry, lifted the wine pot and poured a glass of wine for King Chengling, and said lightly: "Uncle clan, what about this king, as you said, it is the lineage of the royal family of Ji Zhao, I and my uncle, hundreds of years ago, were the same branch, all passed down from the same ancestor, it stands to reason that you and I are closer than other surnames." However, now many clansmen have become wise, oh, this cleverness does not refer to great wisdom, but opportunistic and sideways, trying to harm the interests of the country, to the detriment of the public and private interests, I heard that in the negotiations between your clan uncle and my father, the emperor finally agreed to pay the taxes owed in the past few years? …… This king has understood, that amount of money is not small. ”
"......" King Chengling couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, after all, he was also one of the people who delayed the tax of the imperial court.
"Uncle clan, this king thinks, this is not possible, while you enjoy the treatment of the royal family, you should also fulfill your obligations, only when my Great Wei becomes stronger, your position will become more and more stable. …… To put it mildly, if one day my Great Wei is beaten miserably by South Korea and the land falls, at that time, even if the family of the clan uncle has thousands of dollars, how can he keep it? ”
"......" King Chengling was silent.
In fact, many nobles understand these truths, and the problem is that it has become a habit to owe taxes to the court, so that later, even those nobles who originally paid taxes on time and according to the contract were a little hesitant.
They thought to themselves: Everyone else owes it, so why should I pay it on time?
Even in the end, when the court demanded the money from them, those nobles began to be dissatisfied and resistant to this matter that was taken for granted, so bribery, false profits, and even tax evasion and evasion in an open manner emerged in an endless stream.
Even if tax evasion and tax evasion are counted, these royal families, princes, and nobles have spared no effort in encroaching on national resources.
For example, if a new mine is discovered in a certain county, it stands to reason that it should be mined by the imperial court, but after hearing about this incident, the local nobles immediately bribed the county magistrate and lied to the imperial court that "there are no minerals in this county", or in other words, before the imperial court learned about it, they bribed the county magistrate and gave the county a sum of money to buy the whole mountain.
How much can it cost to buy a barren mountain?
As a result, although the household received a small sum of money from the county, it lost a mine that should have belonged to the imperial court, and in the future it could only spend more money to buy ore from the aristocratic power that bought the mountain and was mining.
Damaging the public and private interests, this is the style of a typical aristocratic businessman, although it cannot include all the aristocratic forces of Wei, but at least the vast majority of them are doing so.
Otherwise, just by relying on the money allocated by the imperial court to the Zongfu, and then the Zongfu allocating to the members of the royal family, there would have been a royal scandal in which two children of the royal family spent a lot of money for a dusty woman in the land of fireworks, and they were jealous to the point of fighting?
Zhao Hongrun, who is now the king of Su, how much does he earn every month? It's just more than a thousand taels of silver, if it weren't for the fact that his sixth uncle Zhao Yuanyan was the financier behind the water pavilion, according to the monthly salary, he couldn't even afford to redeem Miss Su.
No kidding, this is the financial resources of the descendants of the royal clan.
And what about the children of the royal family who split up their families, but they spent money one by one, where did the money come from?
"This king is also a disciple of the Zhao family surnamed Ji, how can he hope that his clan will be destroyed? …… But admittedly, some people, owe banging knocking. Zhao Hongrun said frankly to King Chengling.
Indeed, this is the fundamental reason why Zhao Hongrun did not sacrifice the big killing weapon of the 'Tui En Order', because this poison trick is not easy to grasp, and once it is implemented, none of the aristocratic forces in the whole country of Wei will be spared.
It is undeniable that there will be some sensible aristocratic families who will remain united, but it will definitely not be the majority.
It is no exaggeration to say that as soon as the "Tui En Order" pushed the order, more than half of the aristocratic families in Wei were divided, and the father and son were separated, and the brothers turned against each other, showing a scattered sand.
The bad thing is that the economic system of Wei is now supported by at least half of the aristocratic forces, and once the aristocratic forces fall, the Wei state is bound to suffer heavy losses, which is far more serious than losing a foreign war, and it is very likely that the domestic economic system will collapse, inflation, and fall into civil strife.
And once the Wei State falls into civil strife, Korea in the north and Chu in the south, will they let go of this golden opportunity?
In view of these reasons, Zhao Hongrun did not sacrifice this killing weapon, but only used it to beat Zhao Wenshen, the king of Chengling, to force him to compromise.
"Note: Many book friends have been recommending this trick to push the order, so the author will explain it in detail here through the plot. We have to analyze the national conditions of Wei, which is different from the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, one is the world is full of powerful countries, the other is the unification of the world, and different periods cannot be arbitrarily applied to the national policy. If the protagonist forcibly sacrifices the Tui En Order, the aristocracy will be finished, the economy will collapse, and the Wei State will also be finished."
No, under the threat of "Tui En Order", Zhao Wenshen, the king of Chengling, obviously lacked confidence, so that at this moment, he heard Zhao Hongrun instilling ideas in him, as if preaching.
After a long time, King Chengling took a deep breath and asked Zhao Hongrun, "His Royal Highness King Su, what do you want us to do?" ”
Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and after a little thought, he understood what King Chengling meant, lowered his voice, and said, "Sacrifice the ore vein!" ”
Hearing this, King Chengling's face changed suddenly, you must know that operating mineral veins is not only the most important way for them to accumulate wealth, but also a means to threaten the imperial court in disguise, if they are dedicated to the imperial court, what will they rely on to survive in the future? Does it depend on the insignificant support allocated by the sect?
"It can't be!" King Chengling flatly refused.
Zhao Hongrun didn't make a sound when he heard this, but said lightly: "Whether it is agreed or not, this king will take back the state-owned state little by little in the future." ”
"......" Looking at Zhao Hongrun's calm expression, King Chengling glanced down at the piece of paper on the table, and a few traces of struggle flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "Your Royal Highness King Su, if I am willing to hand over the mineral veins in my hand, can you promise me a condition?" ”
"Uncle Clan, please speak."
I saw King Chengling's eyes glaze over, and he said in a deep voice: "I want to be a passenger on a ship, a ship named 'King Su'." ”
“……”
Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly.
He knew that once he agreed, he would have to play with King Chengling in the future.
To put it bluntly, no matter what way to make money in the future, he learned that he would become the king of Ling, and let him take a part of the profits.
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Hongrun nodded and said, "Okay!" OK! In the future, if the king has a way to make money, he will not forget to inform his uncle. After a pause, he added: "As long as the descendants of the clan uncle are divided into a rich man, don't cause trouble, even if it is a straw bag, this king can also protect him for a lifetime." ”
"......" King Chengling opened his mouth, and then said with a wry smile: "Although this is not a good thing to hear...... Let's think it's a good word. After saying that, he suddenly turned pale and said tentatively: "Including Bolangsha? ”
"Of course!" Zhao Hongrun had already guessed that he was not surprised at all.
With a long breath, King Chengling nodded with satisfaction.
It is said that Zhao Hongrun intends to throw in the silver in units of "ten thousand taels", and King Chengling does not believe that this wise Royal Highness King Su will waste the money.
"Any more questions?" Seeing that King Chengling had almost been moved, Zhao Hongrun's mood was getting better and better.
"The last one." I saw King Chengling raise a finger and ask, "What is Your Highness's intention in supporting those ordinary merchants?" Isn't it because you want those people to replace the nobility and the family? ”
"Replace the nobility and the family?" Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said lightly: "Nobles and families, no matter how long it takes, they can't be really replaced, because if they hit you, they will become new nobles and families, and as year by year, they will gradually become the same as you...... Greedy. ”
"......" King Chengling was embarrassed by what he said, and asked puzzledly: "Since you know that this is not feasible, why does His Royal Highness King Su still support them." ”
Zhao Hongrun smiled faintly and said: "Because of the emperor's technique, don't put all the chickens in one basket, and it's best not to let one person carry the basket." ”
"Checks and balances......
King Chengling touched his chin and nodded slowly.
Immediately, he raised his head, looked at Zhao Hongrun Zhengse, and said, "I hope His Highness will keep his word!" ”
"This king has always done what he says!" Standing up, Zhao Hongrun stretched out his hand to King Chengling.
I saw King Chengling take a deep look at Zhao Hongrun, and he also stood up and held the hand handed out by Zhao Hongrun.
"Note: A trivia story, why do you use your right hand to shake hands? Because in ancient times, it was common to hold a weapon in the right hand, and spread out the right hand to indicate that there was no weapon in the hand, which was an act of goodwill to the other party, not because of the habitual hand. In the same way, when holding a fist, the left hand presses the right hand, the left hand is respected, and the right hand is pressed, symbolizing peace. I saw that in some TV dramas, someone actually pressed his right hand to his left hand when he hugged his fist, he was quite speechless, if this was in ancient times, the other party would have to kill you."
"What does His Royal Highness King Su want me to do?"
After letting go of his hand, King Chengling asked.
"Uncle Clan, don't divulge this matter, and the king will leave the house with a sad face in the future." As he spoke, the corners of Zhao Hongrun's mouth flashed a few sneers, and he said coldly: "Uncle Tai caught this king off guard, so this king must also pay him back." ”
Looking at Zhao Hongrun, who was snorting coldly, King Chengling muttered to himself.
He finally saw with his own eyes that Su Chuansu Wang Jirun was extremely vindictive, and this was not groundless. (To be continued.) )
