"Whether it is a merchant in this dynasty or a merchant in Daxing, if you want to sell goods at the border, you have to pay taxes. A small part of this should be allocated to Daxing, and those people have tasted the sweetness, even if there are Tartars who want to make trouble, I am afraid that their government will not allow it. ”

When the second prince heard this, he couldn't help but think of another question.

"Then if Daxing gets the benefits, it gradually prospers. Daxing is strong, how can we deal with it? They are all wolf ambitions, and with money and weapons, their ambitions will swell, and they will be out of control at that time. ”

Gu Chengyu couldn't help but glance at the second prince, and he found that the second prince was not as loyal as he seemed on the surface.

The questions he raised were all to the point, which shows that he really thinks about Dayan.

"This is the second point that Xia Guan wants to put forward, gold, silver and copper coins cannot be used in the exchange market with Daxing, all of them can only be bartered!"

After hearing this, the courtiers couldn't help but suddenly realize.

Jiang Mingyuan very much agreed with Gu Chengyu's proposal for a mutual market, in his opinion, this can not only take what everyone needs, but also contribute to the stability of the border passes, and also allow the imperial court to pay more taxes.

Therefore, he lined up to the right, ready to help Gu Chengyu.

"Your Majesty, Weichen also has something to say."

The emperor was thinking about the suggestion made by Gu Chengyu just now, and felt that it was not impossible to open a mutual market.

Jiang Mingyuan had objections, so he naturally had to listen to the opinions of other courtiers.

"Jiang Aiqing has objections, let's hear it."

When Gu Chengyu heard that it was Jiang Mingyuan, he was a little surprised.

He didn't have time to talk to Jiang Mingyuan before, but he took a special look at the position of the second-grade senior member, and found that Hu Maoshen was not there, maybe he was resting today.

"Your Majesty! Wechen has no objection to this matter, and thinks that this matter is very feasible. The opening of the mutual market has many advantages, and if many businessmen go to the border gates every year to trade, not to mention paying taxes, it will also be very helpful to the stability of the border gates. ”

"Master Jiang! You had some private friendship with Gu Xiu before, and this official understands it. But this matter is not only about friendship, it is about the success or failure of this dynasty! ”

Dai Yuanji was very unoptimistic about the mutual market, and he thought that this matter was too dangerous and should not be implemented.

Jiang Mingyuan was about to speak, but was preempted by the third prince.

"Father, it is undeniable that the opening of the mutual market does have a lot of benefits. But who can guarantee that those soldiers will not go wrong? Once something goes wrong, it is taken advantage of by the Tartars. The third prince also chimed in.

He also agreed with Dai Yuanji's point of view, and that it would be more beneficial for him not to implement a tea tax.

The emperor was also hesitating, he muttered for a while, and suddenly said, "Gu Aiqing, what do you say?" ”

"Your Majesty, the barter that Weichen just said is very beneficial to our Dayan."

Gu Chengyu paused, and then said: "As we all know, the Tartars need more tea than our Dayan Dynasty. Tea can detoxify and remove diseases, can relieve oiliness and help digestion. Daxing is mostly meat-eaten, and vegetarian food is lacking, so they naturally need tea to relieve oiliness, which is a necessity for their life. ”

"And our Dayan can exchange cloth, tea, medicinal herbs, salt and grain for Daxing's horses, leather, gold, cordyceps, fritillary, etc., which can be regarded as mutually beneficial. In general, as long as Shang Jiaken goes to the border to barter, he will inevitably make a lot of money. ”

When Zhang Shuo heard this, he couldn't help it. The benefits are great, but with these riches comes the same risks.

Besides, Gu Chengyu is simply in the limelight today. His teacher was right, this son was simply arrogant.

"Gu Xiu, on paper, I finally feel shallow. Everything you think, as Master Dai said, is just on paper. As courtiers, we should still focus on the overall situation of the court. ”

"Lord Zhang, please allow the official to finish what he said before." Gu Chengyu didn't need to look to know that Zhang Shuo was targeting him, after all, he was Xia Qing's disciple, so it was strange not to jump out.

Zhang Shuo wanted to say something, but in a blink of an eye, he saw that the emperor was looking at him, his face was slightly gloomy, and he hurriedly didn't dare to say anything more.

"We in Dayan strictly control iron, copper, gold and silver to curb these inflows into Daxing. And the gold and silver of Daxing, we can not refuse to come. Daxing can only be exchanged for things related to food and clothing, and others, such as iron and copper, have become scarce, but these are the main sources of weapons. ”

"Even if it is in terms of gold and silver, Daxing refuses to give in, and does not intend to flow gold and silver out, then it will be fine. As long as we don't accept Daxing's gold and silver, they will be piled up into mountains of gold and silver, and they won't be able to buy weapons. After a long time, as long as weapons are scarce, will they still come to attack our Daxing? ”

As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, all the officials present whispered one after another.

There was a buzz above the court, and even Xia Qing took a deep look at Gu Chengyu.

Although there are still some difficulties in this matter, it cannot be denied that Gu Chengyu has already thought of the idea of a tea and horse market because of a tea tax.

And we have already thought of countermeasures to the problems that we can encounter.

The emperor looked at Gu Chengyu and couldn't help but squint.

Such a big thing, Gu Chengyu didn't even mention it in the twists and turns, could it be that he couldn't prevent him?

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a question, and I want to ask Gu Xiu to answer it."

Xia Qing finally opened his mouth, which made the court even more lively.

The emperor frowned, and his eyes swept over the officials below, until everyone calmed down, and the emperor opened his mouth.

"Xia Aiqing just needs to ask him, you are the first assistant of the cabinet, and you have to check these things."

When Xia Qing heard this, his heart suddenly felt happy. It seems that the emperor still values him, doesn't this make a face for him?

When Gu Chengyu heard this, his heart sank. Could it be that the emperor has an opinion on his concealment?

However, these ideas were only perfected last night.

The time given by the emperor was too short before, and he didn't think about anything else.

He couldn't help but sigh, a companion is like a tiger, and he still has to explain it later.

Xia Qing got the emperor's approval, so he was naturally not welcome.

"Gu Xiu, according to what you said, are the people who are in Daxing all stupid? Maybe they were carried away by these benefits before, but after a while, they won't find out? In his opinion, you have made it simpler. However, it is remarkable that you can make so many suggestions. ”

Xia Qing smiled and first denied Gu Chengyu's mutual market. Then, he praised Gu Chengyu again, lest others say that he was scheming with a small official with a sesame seed.

Xia Qing finished talking about Gu Chengyu first, then turned his head and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty! Weichen also thinks that the tea tax proposed by Gu Xiu is feasible, and if it is really a mutual market, the emperor has to think twice! ”
