Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Seeing the confused expressions of several teenagers, the prince couldn't help shaking his head, feeling that they were still very young and whimsical.

The first thing that came to Man Bao's mind was, was it useless that they had been racking their brains for a month before?

Not to mention her, even Bai Shandu was hit hard, and his eyes were about to turn red, "So the method of prohibiting the immediate family members of officials from doing business in the jurisdiction can't be used?"

Hearing this, the prince raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who came up with this idea?"

Bai Shan said aggrievedly: "The three of us figured it out randomly."

Seeing their aggrieved appearance, the prince couldn't help but ask with a smile, "It took a lot of effort, right?"

Bai Shan didn't want to show weakness, so he said, "It's not too hard."

Seeing his insincere expression, the crown prince smiled and said, "This method sounds good, and it has some utility. However, aren't you officials? I remember that you have a lot of property in your own family, right?"

Why do you want to come up with such a trick to make things difficult for yourself?

Bai Shan said as a matter of course: "Because this is the best for the people and the court."

The prince raised his eyebrows and looked at him. After a while, he turned to look at Zhou Man, and suddenly smiled: "I just remember, Zhuang Shi said that he is your teacher?"

The three nodded together.

The prince smiled, "You and your teacher are a little bit similar."

The three of them became happy when they saw the prince's smiling face, and waited excitedly for his comment.

Bai Shanxiang: Is it wise?

Man Bao thought: It must be wisdom, right?

Bai Erlang ordered all kinds of things in his heart, who is kind, smart, and wise...

The prince secretly said: It is naive.

But he didn't say it. Instead, he nodded to the three of them and asked, "Besides this method, what other methods have you come up with?"

Bai Shan spoke on behalf of the three, "It is best to stipulate that the relatives within three generations, and the wife's family can relax it to two generations. In addition, the Ministry of Accounts must also strictly assign taxes to reduce the phenomenon of tax evasion and evasion. The behavior of some officials doing business."

The prince asked, "How is it determined?"

He looked at Liu Huan, who was sitting beside him, and asked with a smile, "Do you count on the Minister of Household Affairs? You ask Liu Huan, will his grandfather offend the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty for a little tax?"

Bai Shan said: "It's not as if you offend the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, like Lord Wei..."

"Wei Zhi is a special case," the prince interrupted him directly, "Man dynasty civil and military, apart from Wei Zhi who really rented out his own shop to collect rent, who really lived by rent collection and salary?"

"Have you been in and out of many princely homes?"

Manbao Baishan and Bai Erlang nodded together.

"Who's the same family as the Wei family have you seen?"

The three of them were speechless.

Not to mention the Duke's Mansion, the same as Wei Zhi were Hou Mansion, in addition to Yang He Shujia and Yin or Jia.

The Yang family is still a big family, the Wei family and the Yin family are not comparable, but the Shiwei family and the Yin family should be similar.

"Wei Zhi lives in a mansion where his wife and daughter have to cook. Whose house is like his?" The prince looked at Chang Yu and said, "The marriage between you and Wei Yu has to be settled. , you should know all this, right?"

Chang Yu lowered his head.

Of course she knew. It was precisely because she knew that she planned to live in the princess' mansion in the future. The expenses of the princess' mansion could not depend on her husband's family. She could only maintain it by herself, so she thought of doing something to make money. invest.

But her little plan actually led to this meeting. It's nothing. She even attracted the prince's brother, and then ate the steamed pork that she had been thinking about for a long time.

Chang Yu recalled the piece of meat he ate just now, and he still wanted to eat it even more.

The prince didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing her bowing her head, he thought she was unhappy with the marriage, so he simply stopped poking her sadness, turned his head and said to Bai Shan, "The Ministry of Household is very willing but powerless. For example, if a merchant who lives for a long time brings a bunch of pearls into the city, it will cost 10 tax and 1, and if a merchant who does not settle down brings it into the city, that is 30 tax."

When the prince saw that they were listening seriously, he smiled slyly and asked, "If an orphan's doorman brought pearls into the city, saying that the pearls are for the orphans, not for business, what would happen to your city gate officer and the householder? tidy?"

Not only Man Bao and Bai Shan Bai Erlang, but even Ming Da and Princess Chang Yu opened their mouths.

Only the well-informed Yin Or and Liu Huan looked indifferent, thinking this was not common sense?

Man Bao swallowed his saliva and asked incredulously: "Also, can you still do this?"

The prince said: "Of course, not only the solitary disciples will do that, but those officials and wealthy families themselves, relatives and servants will do it."

It is said that it is their own things, their own luggage, how do the city gate officials and the Ministry of Household collect taxes?

Even the most honest person can't keep staring at other people's things.

Most of the valuable things will be transported back to the house, and then slowly look for opportunities to shoot, or give them away, or barter with others, the Ministry of Household has no control over these.

Man Bao was stunned, and the distant memories of her childhood were accidentally brought out by her, "I remembered that when the second sister Fu left our Luojiang County with the magistrate Fu, she brought special products of all ages. I seem to listen to someone. He mentioned it and said that Magistrate Fu is not good at returning to Beijing with an empty car, so he planned to bring some special products into Beijing, but he couldn't send them out, and he could sell them to earn some tolls."

The prince nodded, but he felt that the county magistrate surnamed Fu was too arrogant. He was thinking about earning tolls.

Bai Shan murmured: "No wonder at that time, after we handed in our schoolwork, the husband only said that we were in a good mood, but he was not thoughtful enough or reasonable enough. Let's think about it again..."

The prince smiled and said, "Then you should continue to think about it."

But he thinks it's hard to improve, just money, who doesn't like it?

Bai Shan also said: "Benefits are the most touching. There is a book that says that benefits can sway people's greed. As long as the benefits are big enough, they will dare to trample on morals and laws, even if they pay for it. life."

Man Bao weakly said: "I dare not, I am afraid of death."

No matter how much money you have, you have to have a life to spend. Man Bao turned his head and said to Bai Shan, "You don't want to be greedy and bend the law in the future. I don't want to be ransacked. In fact, the money only needs to be spent."

Bai Shan nodded, "Don't worry, unless you are wronged, I won't let you have your house searched with me."

Crowd: ...

The prince's teeth were sore, and he was too lazy to pay attention to their innocent words and thoughts. He got up and said, "It's time to play until it's dark. You are still so young, don't think about these things."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Everyone hurriedly got up and gave him a gift. When the prince was gone, everyone turned around to look at the two empty bowls on the table, and Man Bao sighed.

Chang Yu sighed even bigger than her, she only ate a piece, a piece!

The prince went straight back to find the princess for dinner.

As expected, the princess was waiting for the prince. It was time for dinner. Since the prince came back and didn't tell her to eat first, she naturally wanted to wait for him.

Seeing him, the Crown Princess smiled and asked, "Why did Your Highness remember to eat steamed pork today?"

See you tomorrow
