My wife is number one in the world

"no!"

Liu Mingzhi nodded disappointedly: "Understood, I will call you for dinner tonight, you should take a rest first, the journey must be very hard."

"Brother, walk slowly, younger brother will not see you off!"

The sky is full of yellow sand, and the wind is noisy.

The empress was dressed in a plain white fringed skirt, with three thousand blue silk coiled up adorning the phoenix's head and dotted with emerald green hairpins, her cherry lips were reddish and murmured from time to time.

His slender arms were behind a thin cloak, and his eyes were lingering at the officials and craftsmen of the Dalong Ministry of Industry who were constructing large-scale construction projects outside Yanmen Pass. White.

Raising her jade arm, the three books in the queen's hand floated in the wind, and flew towards the canyon under Shanhaiguan. I don't know when the queen's soft eyes gradually became colder.

"Three times, I was rejected. You are really more difficult to invite than Zhuge Wuhou. It seems that Wanyan Zongheng shouldn't be allowed to pass the letter over. It's just futile! The love of children is no better than the righteousness of family and country! I understand!"

"Your Majesty, are you waiting for someone? It's time to go back to the palace. An envoy from Turkic Shibisi royal court is here!"

"I'm not waiting for anyone, and no one will come! Prepare your car!"

"According to the order!"

The empress took out a delicate Suzhou embroidered handkerchief from the jade belt around her waist and gently opened it, revealing a shriveled red bean inside.

Holding the red bean in her hand, the queen looked blankly at the frontier where the yellow sand was raging. She turned her jade hand lightly, and the shriveled red bean went back in the wind, and she didn't know where it was going.

The queen's expression became aloof and cold again, revealing a chill that strangers avoid.

Gently boarding the carriage, the queen looked back and forgot to take a look at the red clouds outside the Yanmen Pass and smiled resolutely.

"I won't wait for anyone, and I won't come!

Chapter 555 The Heartfelt Words

After Liu Mingzhi arranged for Yan Feixiong to stay, he introduced his existence to his family.

However, he did not reveal his identity, but said that his name is Wan Feixiong, he is the younger brother of a friend of his, and he needs to take care of him for a period of time.

The three of Liu Zhi'an didn't disappoint the three wives, and when dusk fell, they all went back to their respective homes.

Liu Zhi'an didn't ask Wanyan Feixiong's identity carefully, but his always sensitive intuition told him that the child in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

Although his manner was courteous and courteous, the indistinct aura unintentionally revealed was too overwhelming.

Knowing that the eldest son has grown up and has his own secret, Liu Zhi'an just told Liu Mingzhi to be careful and went back to the room to rest alone.

This time he didn't even ask Liu Si and the others about the identities of Wanyan Feixiong, and only he knew what was going on in his mind.

After sending Wanyan Fei back, Young Master Xiong Liu sat alone in the study and meditated,

The lights were dim and dim, Liu Mingzhi looked at the ten acacias on the rice paper in a daze, and when he was playing with the carving knife for engraving the seal, he suddenly felt a feeling of palpitation.

It seems that there is a feeling in the dark that I am going to lose something very important.

Dangdang.....

Liu Mingzhi flickered, then took a breath and looked at the thumb cut by the carving knife, and said in a somewhat impatient tone, "Who?"

"Young Master, Wenren Mountain Chief is looking for you!"

Liu Song's voice sounded outside the study door.

Liu Mingzhi's mood calmed down slightly: "Understood, I'm going to pay respects to the old man right now, you should step back first!"

"Yes, the little one retire."

"Boy Liu, the old man came by himself, didn't he bother you?"

Hearing Renzheng's old voice sounded outside the door, Liu Mingzhi did not hesitate, and hastily put away the Xiangsizi on the table, stood up and opened the door of the study.

"Old man, please come in quickly, what advice do you have for me at this hour! Do you want to marry your granddaughter to me?"

"Get out, dare to play Yun Shu's idea, be careful that the old man castrates you, remember what the old man said, strong sex will cause disaster, and you will be ruled forever!"

Liu Mingzhi felt that a certain position was a little chilly, he smiled awkwardly and added a cup of tea to Wen Renzheng: "Just kidding, are you still worrying about His Majesty's business?"

Wen Renzheng lightly pecked at the tea, then looked at Liu Mingzhi majesticly: "Your father told you?"

"Yes, I just mentioned a few words. The main reason is that you, old man, are worried that once the commercial road is opened, the people will not care about farming, and there will be a food shortage. If the people complain, the people will have no food, and the dragon will collapse without attacking."

Wen Renzheng sighed and looked at Liu Mingzhi with squinted eyes: "Boy, don't feel old-fashioned, you are still young, and you don't know what will happen if there is a food shortage. , the country will not be the country."

Wen Renzheng seemed to recall something, with lingering fear in his eyes and a trace of fear: "Once there is a shortage of food, the common people will do anything for food. Forced into bandits for such a small amount of food, I am really afraid that you will get lost in making money and neglect the most important thing.”

Although Liu Mingzhi had never experienced it, later generations also learned from the older generation that the famine was terrible, and they ate everything they could eat. It is not an exaggeration to say that locusts passed through the border.

Once a person is extremely hungry, it is justifiable to do something terrifying.

As Wen Renzheng said, it was just for such a small amount of food.

"Grandpa, you are worried, I know that this matter has been discussed with His Majesty for a long time. The Ministry of Households strictly controls the number of merchants who leave the customs. Sell ​​it to the people at a low price, take what is taken from the people and use it for the people, and strive to make every Dalong person a beneficiary of the business, so as to truly store wealth for the people!"

Wen Renzheng heaved a sigh of relief, and his brows eased: "If this is the best, but it costs a lot of manpower and material resources, and sells it to the people at a low price. In the long run, the national treasury will be in short supply. Is there a countermeasure for this?"

Liu Mingzhi chuckled twice: "Don't worry, old man, the national treasury will not be empty, but will be full of money. Although the government and businessmen may lose some financial resources, the taxes paid by private merchants and caravans formed by wealthy gentry are enough to cover the national treasury." Let’s get rich and guarantee steady profits without losing money!”

"The imperial court will not plan to collect high taxes. If so, if the tax is too high, the businessman will definitely not want to go out for trade!"

"Old man, look at it. Not only will it not be like this, but there will be an endless stream of merchants leaving the customs. They know better than us whether they have made money. My old man has recruited all the Liu family caravans in Jiangnan, Northwest, Shu, and Donghai. On the day of the switch, they have a steelyard in their hearts."

Wen Renzheng chuckled in a daze: "You dare to arrange your father like this in private, you are not afraid that he will hang you up and smoke!"

"Certainly not. The Liu's House of Commerce has fallen into a bottleneck. The old man is trying to find a new way. Now that the business way is opened, the way will come. It's too late for him to thank me. Slap me? Can my mother spare him?"

"I said you kid is so swearing, you won't do anything to use power for personal gain?"

Wen Renzheng suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Mingzhi sharply.

Liu Mingzhi's expression froze, he picked up his teacup and took a sip: "How is it possible, the boy eats the king's salary to share the worries of the king, and family affairs and state affairs have always been clearly divided."

Seeing Young Master Liu's guilty expression, Wen Renzheng still doesn't know what's going on, there must be some shady tricks in the middle.

But he didn't say a lesson, everyone has selfishness, he believed that Liu Mingzhi had his own sense of propriety, and would never do anything too reckless.

And he firmly believed that Li Zheng was also clear about the way, but without any instructions, it meant that Li Zheng had acquiesced in Liu Dashao's personal gain for the Liu family.

The whole world belongs to the emperor, and the emperor doesn't even ask about it. Why should I, an old man who has not asked about the affairs of the court, seek to find out the source.

"With your words, the old man can rest assured. The two small things to go to Beijing are almost done, and the old man should go back to the south of the Yangtze River. The academy is very busy!"
