Chapter 15: Freedom
In order to endorse her sister-in-law, Empress Changsun operated slightly, and the Emperor said that there was no oil and water recently, so a new grain and oil bureau was set up in the Forbidden Garden. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The Info Grain and Oil Bureau set up a bureau order, and after the order was cast, it was couriered to Princess Anping in Shandong. That's right, Emperor Taishang and Empress Changsun said to His Majesty the "Heavenly Khan" II that only in this way can someone be prevented from picking up the wool of our Li family......
Li Dong believed it at that time...... This is obviously impossible.
"Flying Horseman" dispatched for the second time, and the master was a master, a master, and a dozen skilled men were sent out. After several inquiries, I learned that the sesame oil used in the temples in the Denglai area recently was redeemed from the Forbidden Garden Grain and Oil Bureau, and the price was fair.
But Li Dong said, why are you kidding me? Is this what I want?
"Flying Horse" was dispatched three times, and he was still a master and a master, and sent out more than a dozen fierce and incomparable heroes. After several tosses, I learned that the sesame oil used in the temples in the Denglai area recently is meat and whale oil! But it burns very long-lasting, and it is said that last year there was a whale wax, which burned for seven or eight months, and it has not been extinguished, which is really amazing.
Li Dong's face twitched, and his heart said, "Are you wastes degraded? Is Lao Tzu asking for this kind of news for dinner?
However, this time, the "flying horse" did not make a fourth sortie, but it was the Denglai Navy who carried the handle Du Gou, and put on a note, saying that it was a boat floating and sailing at night. The ship lamps produced by the Forbidden Garden Grain and Oil Bureau are very good, so please buy them at your discretion.
The quantity is not much, but the price shocked Li Dong.
"A boat lamp needs ten times? Why don't you buy a cow? ”
"Your Majesty, this year, the Denglai Navy arrested the pirates, and handed over the thieves' stolen goods into copper coins, about 160,000 yuan ......."
How could Du Tianwang not ask about his own son's affairs? As the saying goes, "being virtuous and not avoiding relatives", Du Tianwang felt that his son was interesting enough. The Denglai Navy did not add any equipment, and handed over two or three hundred thousand stolen goods every year, and wherever they were placed, they were "loyal to their duties" and "the dry city of the country", and they had to get a knighthood at the very least.
If it weren't for the death of King Du Tianwang, Du Gou would have taken over the position of duke, and Li Dong would have been rewarded with a knighthood a few years ago.
Du Tianwang concealed something, he told the emperor that "hand over the thief's stolen goods and convert them into copper coins, about 160,000 yuan", but in fact this is not the case at all. Most of the real seizures by the Denglai Navy in recent years are copper ingots, or even copper ore.
In other words, the Denglai Navy investigated smuggling, and what they got was money directly, and there were no materials at all. Du Tianwang's situation is just a sloppy eye, how could the emperor know that he was playing with words?
And according to the state and county reports, the emperor will not feel that there is anything wrong with this content.
It's just that one sentence has changed a little material, and the meaning is very different.
Shan Dao really reimbursed the relics of the Fire Country at one time, and the two copper mines on Zhuzi Island completely fell into the China Resources. Kaiyuan Tongbao Mould is not without Chikushi Island, but the bulk of the transaction is not with the country, but with dozens of countries on the main island of Dongying.
It can be said that Chikushi Island holds the right to mint coins in the East China Sea, and hundreds of countries in the East China Sea recognize the purchasing power of Kaiyuan Tongbao very much. Even some big countries on the island, in order to consolidate their own position, also specially smuggled a batch of Kaiyuan Tongbao from the Tang Dynasty.
With Kaiyuan Tongbao, you can buy sugar, leather, swords, arrows, silk, and ceramics from the Tang Dynasty......
Although the purchasing power is relatively low, there are 70 high-level countries with a certain amount of consumption power on the island alone. Coupled with the northern route of the Black Water Spirit, the dozens of tribes of the Turtle people also have a strong desire to get the Kaiyuan Tongbao.
It doesn't make much sense to throw the privately minted Kaiyuan Tongbao into the domestic market, and it is still a drop in the bucket in the short term.
In addition, Chikushi Island has mastered an easy-to-mine silver mine, China Resources Silver Dollar, which is the most important thing.
The smuggling seized by Du Gou can be handed over to the local government for crackdown, and then sent to the Luoyang treasury in the eastern capital. The accounts are clear and organized, and Du Wei has no professional ethics flaws at all, which can be called a model for bureaucrats and loyal monarchs.
But Li Dong always had a thought in his heart: Why didn't I believe it?
However, it doesn't matter whether Li Dongxin believes it or not, because the three bigwigs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs have already spoken: Whether Your Majesty believes it or not, the ministers believe it anyway.
There's no way, this money is divided between the three families, it is reasonable and legal, and there is Du Tianwang's endorsement, what pressure is there? The emperor is a dick again, believe it or not there will be no such additional "smuggling seizures" next year?
As soon as Li Dong gritted his teeth, he went to the forbidden garden to inspect the work to see if those slaves and maids had served their father well.
But the old chairman was a sincere person, and he said to his son earnestly: "Erlang, the grain and oil bureau has created a grass, but it is already a small profit. Erlang, you see, the old man's residence, there is still a lack of a lively place, I heard that Li Ke has captured many rare and exotic beasts in Shu, the old man wants to build a 'Pixiu Pavilion', this money, there is no need for Erlang to pay out. Kou Niang has some money there, and the grain and oil bureau in charge of Zhi Niang also has some money, so let's start work early. ”
Dad, how much money do you really make?
Li Dong was full of curiosity in his heart, held his breath and concentrated, and hooked a page on the account book with his little finger, a string of numbers was like a Kaiyuan Tongbao with a soaring copper ratio, shining golden and dazzling.
Is whale oil so profitable? Do cetawax directly on ten times the profit? How did you get it?
In an instant, Li Dong was at a loss.
Although Li Dong is a little dazed, the giant pandas still have to be caught, and those caught alive are kept in Chang'an. The founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty finally had a daily activity to cultivate his sentiments, carrying bamboo shoots every day and taking a group of little wives to feed the pandas.
The old chairman is tired of feeding the pandas, and his current expenses are also very amazing, and unlike his son, he does not need to think about governing the country, let alone intrigue.
Although occasionally looking back, he is still unwilling to be stuffed, but more often, Li Yuan is quite open-minded.
After adjusting his mentality, Li Yuan's body was actually the same as Lu Deming, and there was occasional news that he was going to die, but it didn't take long for him to come out again. Old man Lu can still spray 30,000 words a day, and the old chairman is a royal woman overnight.
Strong, invincible.
It is not only the Emperor Taishang who is invincible, but also the daughters of the Emperor.
Anping took his son straight to Luoyang non-stop, and after scolding Li Jia and Li Yue, he even said, "If there is any fornication with Zhang De, don't blame me for being ruthless", the eldest princess of Huainan burst into tears, and Uncle Tan asked faintly: "Your Highness, my family is a gentleman...... Haven't you ever come to Luoyang to meet Your Highness privately? ”
"It's nature! Since my sister and wife went to Hanyang, how have they ever been to Luoyang? It's her who is arrogant and unreasonable! What kind of 'fornication', vexatious shrew! ”
The eldest princess of Huainan was crying and scolding, but Anping couldn't hear it, she was finally free now. How many years? How many years? Although the Amway basically has nothing to do with her, although the sister-in-law of the lord of the harem has been squeezed a lot, and although the second brother of the co-owner of the world has been inquiring a lot, but now it is really "the sky is high and the birds are flying"!
"Mother, can I eat beans?"
"Eat."
Zhang Cang was in the carriage, holding a jar of fried broad beans, which were fragrant and crispy. Just ate a few and let out a few farts, and the carriage was filled with an unusual smell.
Boom!
The window door was opened fiercely, and An Ping slammed his head to take a few breaths of fresh air, and then said hatefully: "Zhang Xiaoyi, the old lady has been widowed for three years, and you are at ease in Hanyang!" Let's see how the old lady cleans you up! ”
In Hanyang City, Zhang De, who was tossing and turning, looked at Cui Jue, who was sleeping next to him, and sighed: "It seems that it's time to sleep in separate rooms." ”
