Mo said that it was a small horse, that is, the prince dared to travel with thousands of cars and thousands of servants, and the impeachment would fly like snowflakes, and then pile up one person high in the Taiji Palace.
But so far, no seal of impeachment has been sent.
In the face of Li Yuan's question, Liu Mu laughed dryly, and when he was thinking about how to answer, Li Yuan let out a long breath: "I'm afraid it's just because of a sharp word." β
Sharp!
Li Yuan got to the point in one sentence, a huge word in Liu Mu's heart.
Li Yuan asked again: "What kind of benefit?" β
"Double the tax." Liu Mu took two steps closer and whispered beside Li Yuan.
Li Yuan nodded slightly: "Then why double?" β
"Father, take the cup you drink water in, the world only knows that there is a cup, but this cup is also good and bad, this cup is divided into nine grades and twenty-one levels, which is naturally twenty-one prices. As long as you make another holy decree, such as the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, a hundred wastes are waiting to be revived, and thrift is forbidden to luxury. The retainers will be able to double the taxes again. β
"Oh?" Li Yuan became interested, and leaned forward to stick to Liu Mu: "This prohibits luxury, and the high-quality teacups naturally can't be sold, how to increase taxes." β
"Luxury tax. For the sale of luxury goods, the luxury tax must be added, and this tax is exclusive. The state governments used it to set up righteous halls, treat the elderly and the weak, and provide free medical subsidies to the poor. But how to make this tax can be announced and implemented smoothly, there are famous ministers in your old court, and they must have a way. β
Li Yuan touched his beard and thought about Liu Mu's proposal in his heart.
The tax of the Tang Dynasty still focuses on service, ding, and land. The commercial tax can be pitiful, basically between one-twentieth and one-thirtieth.
Liu Mu said again: "Father, give me another gold medal, and Xingzhou can build a steel mill." The steel mill is a special industry, and it is estimated that countless people are willing to build it by charging him a three-percent tax at one time. β
"How much will it produce?" Li Yuan is not concerned about taxes, steel is a strategic material, so Li Yuan is concerned about output.
"Father, how much steel was there in Datang last year, after the completion of the Xingzhou Steel Mill, it is no problem to double it."
This output made Li Yuan tempted: "The gold medal is a trivial matter. β
The output of steel is very important for the Tang Dynasty, not to mention ordnance and weapons, Li Yuan, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, clearly knows that the furniture of some farmers in the state capital of the Tang Dynasty is still made of stone, that is, there are still some places around Chang'an that use porcelain knives and stone knives.
Li Yuan asked Liu Mu: "Xingzhou has enough coins to build a steel mill with an output of one million stones?" β
"Nope."
"Where did the coins come from?"
"Five days, five days, the ministers guarantee that the money, food, and service are in place." Liu Mu said confidently.
Li Yuan nodded: "You go and do it, I'll watch." β
"The retainers retired."
After Liu Mu came out of Li Yuan's study, he looked in the direction of the east and let out a long sigh.
In Liu Mu's heart, Li Jiancheng is not incompetent, after the Tang Dynasty raised troops, Li Jiancheng's logistics direction was excellent, and most of the money and food needed by the Tang Dynasty to raise troops were borrowed or begged for by Li Jiancheng from the Great Family.
At present, Li Jiancheng has lost one help after another, and he is a little confused.
Out of the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin was waiting outside the palace gate.
"Second brother!" Liu Mu clenched his fists.
Li Shimin nodded, asked someone to pull a horse to Liu Mu, and then turned over and got on the horse and walked parallel to Liu Mu, and after the two walked for a while, Li Shimin said: "Wuji is a little anxious today, I have already talked to him alone." When the general trend is in hand, there shouldn't be such a small trick, and I'm glad no one noticed? β
"Or no one debunks it." Liu Mu said a word on the side.
Li Shimin frowned slightly, Liu Mu's words were the truth, but no one debunked them.
Li Shimin said: "Your second sister-in-law has never wanted Wuji to be in a high position, but I don't know why? β
Liu Muxin said that this was not an obvious reason, Li Shimin knew, but he didn't want to admit it. So Liu Mu didn't say much, only said: "What is the matter with the second brother waiting for me outside the palace?" β
"It's nothing, just come and ask tomorrow's Mid-Autumn Festival will not be wrong."
"No, even if my father wakes up in the morning and says that he wants to hold a grand ceremony, there will be a grand ceremony at noon. I already have a mature process for doing this, and the well-trained personnel only need to be ordered to pull people to work. β
After listening to Liu Mu's answer, Li Shimin nodded, and did not mention the grand ceremony, but said: "The general trend is the same, just wait." β
"The second brother is wise."
Out of Anfumen, Li Shimin kept sending Liu Mu to Sulinmen before turning back.
There are still more than 30 miles away from Zhuangzi from the north of Chang'an City to Jingyang, and ordinary people can walk for more than an hour, and they can almost walk in three hours in modern times.
Willow riding is still not very good, but this little distance is less than an hour to trot.
When they arrived at Jinghe Wharf, Gao Cheng, Cui Yiye and others were here to make arrangements for tomorrow's grand ceremony, and Ma Zhou was still in Chang'an, and he was responsible for processing and integrating those intelligence.
"Two things." Liu Mu said to Gao Cheng and Cui Yiye: "The first thing, add an article to the notice of the east and west cities, just say that I Liumu recruits family members, and recruits 10,000 people for a year to screen, I must make special notes, give me Liu Mu master this year's screening time, absolutely let everyone suffer and suffer." β
Gao Zheng just motioned to the little guy next to him to write it down, and then said, "Wei Zheng is waiting for you." β
"I'm talking about recruiting a family."
"I know, isn't it just suffering. Some people are willing to come and endure hardships, not to mention 10,000 people, even 20,000 people can recruit enough in three days. Gao Cheng said nonchalantly.
Cui Yiye also said: "It is rumored in Chang'an City that a slave soldier is now the actual captain of the Zuo Shen Ce Guard, and the real six-rank military attachΓ©, isn't it heartwarming?" β
"What?" Gao Cheng interjected and asked: "You must be mistaken, Zuo Shen Cewei is in the army, and the captain of the army is from the fifth grade, not from the sixth grade." β
"Seems to be right." Cui Yiye thought about it, since he was in the god of the Tang Emperor, it should be at the level of the army.
Liu Mu roared: "Mind my, I'm the captain of the horse from the fifth grade." β
"Yo, that's jealousy, hahaha." Gao Cheng and Cui Yiye both laughed.
"Say something else."
"Okay, you say." Seeing that Liu Mu was very angry, Cui Yiye said with a smile.
Liu Mu said in a deep voice: "Write an invitation for me, and ask the thirty-six sects on the Chang'an side to send people over." Especially the Hedong Liu clan, the Chang'an Du clan, the Hedong Pei clan, and your Qinghe Cui clan, you must send someone who can be the master. Didn't they always want to get the workshop from me? That's it. β
