[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

Jia Yan looked at the old sisters and smiled unconsciously. Then Tanchun asked about Xichun, and when she learned that Xichun's husband was not doing well recently, she sighed unconsciously.

If it would be really bad for Xichun's husband, then the three sisters would all be widows. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

It's just that Tanchun wouldn't say that, so Tanchun said: "I know a thing or two about the empress dowager's temper. Whenever I have something on my mind, I always want to do something, and it's a big thing. The concubine is here I dare to ask the empress what is on her mind here, but I need my concubines to share the worries for the empress."

Xue Baochai looked at Jia Yan above, and said with a smile: "The third younger sister was a shrewd child, and this is indeed true. Your Majesty does have something for us to do."

Tanchun heard that this time he had his share, and immediately adjusted his sitting posture.

She knew that such an opportunity, waiting for others, was impossible to ask for.She missed it before, but this time, for the sake of her son, she must not miss it.

Seeing this, Jia Yan talked to the sisters about the reform of the salt administration.

When Lin Daiyu heard this, her eye circles turned red.

She thought of her father Lin Ruhai.If it wasn't because of the corruption of the salt administration, how could Lin Ruhai be in this position like oil?After four or five years of suffering, I finally boiled myself to death abruptly.

Not to mention that it was Jia Yan who spoke, even if Jia Yan was not the host, Lin Daiyu would be involved just because of Lin Ruhai.

This is true for Lin Daiyu, and even more so for Xue Baochai.

Xue Baochai held the tea bowl, thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, since your Majesty has said so, it is obvious that this matter has been lingering in your Majesty's heart for a long time. The concubine dares to say a few words. If there is something wrong , and invite your empress, Haihan."

"You say it."

"Yes, ma'am." Xue Baochai sorted out his words and said: "Madam, since ma'am made this to let the people of the world eat cheap salt, then this is a merchant. Merchants have their rules, and shopping malls have shopping malls." People who work for His Majesty Renzong and His Majesty Xiaozong must be veterans on the battlefield, otherwise, they are the top leaders in inquiring about news. But this merchant is not a courtier or concubine. This merchant is passed on from father to son, Passing on from son to grandson is of course dictated by the laws of the country, but not necessarily because of the laws of the country. Your Majesty asked these adults to do this with good intentions, but I am afraid that they are novices and will be tricked by others."

In fact, when Xue Baochai said this, he was still avoiding the most serious.The most worrying thing about this kind of thing is that it’s not about being scammed, but that these spies were originally in charge of supervision, and now they are asked to do things directly, because they are afraid that the businessmen and the supervisors will mix together, and they will cheat Jia in the end. Yan.

Jia Yan said: "Then tell me, how should this matter be?"

Xue Baochai replied: "Mother, in the past, our Xue family's business spread all over the banks of the canal. It was only later that the concubine's elder brother committed a crime, and then changed his family because of his military exploits. This gradually closed the business. Although the concubine Xue's natal family has already changed their family, but Xue's family used to have eight houses, and it was only the house of the concubine's natal family who changed the house. Xue's eight-bedroom, others can do it, but the concubine's cousin Xue Bian, the concubine can Be the master of half."

No one knew better than Xue Baochai, seeing Xue Pan became a member of the nobility, how jealous the rest of the Xue family was.As for Xue Biao, he is not good at reading, but he still has some skills in business. The appearance of when.

This also proved Xue Biao's ability in disguise.

Xue Baochai can guarantee that as long as Jia Yan says a word, she will be able to get Xue Biao to vote for Jia Yan. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Jia Yan said indifferently: "Sister Bao, do you know what I'm talking about? What I want is a business that is completely in the hands of the royal family."

Xue Baochai said categorically: "Your Majesty is the current empress dowager. As long as your Majesty speaks out, the merchants in the capital are absolutely willing to pay their respects. As for what your Majesty said, the concubines have also thought about it. As long as your Majesty is willing to let the Xue family do business here It occupies a certain amount of dry shares, and then gives those shopkeepers a certain amount of top shares, so that they will not be afraid that those people will not listen to the empress. As for the royal family to completely control these transactions, the concubine thinks that as long as the royal family holds more than [-]% of the shares, it is not necessary. , maybe [-]% is safer, and everything is done according to the contract, that's enough."

Jia Yan looked at Xue Baochai, his eyes widened slightly.

Xue Baochai was indeed the daughter of an imperial merchant family, she had already thought of dry butts and buttocks without saying anything.

Have to say, this is indeed a good way.

With the shell of the Xue family, the shop can be spread all over the place in a very short period of time.

Jia Yan said, "Sister Bao, are you sure your cousin will be willing?"

Xue Baochai said: "Your Majesty, businessmen want to change their identities all the time. Isn't it the best way to advance to work for Your Majesty?"

If it was the former Xue Baochai, she would definitely say that as Jia Yan, even if she doesn't give anything, there are still some people who are willing to do things for Jia Yan.But Xue Baochai now knows that sometimes, this kind of unrequited flattery will be found in other places and in other ways.Therefore, making a contract and acting according to the agreement is the most correct way to open it.

Lin Daiyu immediately proposed that in her Zhuangzi, those boys who have studied in school for several years and can write and count can become the clerks in these shops, and they can also become the exclusive accountants of the secret agents.

Of course, if she needs money, Lin Daiyu will never be stingy.

As for Tanchun, she stayed with her son for some days in the county magistrate's position, so she knew more about the trivial matters of the common people.And these little things, when distracted, reflect the various manifestations of collusion between officials and businessmen, and bullying and oppression of ordinary people.

With these three people helping Jia Yan to make a draft, and then there was news from the secret guards, the tax reform of Dajin started from the Yanzheng in this way.

No, to be more precise, it started from the countless grocery stores that went deep into the folks.

Although these days, in many rural areas there are indispensable peddlers carrying burdens and walking around the streets, but grocery stores are the dream of many peddlers.Grocery stores are not uncommon in any city.

Coincidentally, whether it is Jia Yanlin Daiyu, or Xue Baochai and the Jia family, those Zhuangzi who were in Shangqiu and Qilu in the past, after so many years, these Zhuangzi always have a backlog of products.For example, there is a backlog of wool that has changed color over the years.These faded wool cannot be sold in those big shops.But it is this kind of defective products, many women in remote places are willing to spend a little time to rearrange these woolen yarns, and then weave them into new clothes.Many women are willing to believe that this kind of wool is not kept for a long time, but it is originally this color.

And this kind of grocery store sells food when it is not available, and sells salt every now and then, and it is very cheap, but you need to register your household registration when you buy it.

Although no one wants to bring down these shops in the name of salt tax and salt and iron official camp, firstly, these shops use salt that has already been taxed, and secondly, no one in the officialdom knows better than those secret guards Well, three times, these salts are indeed cheap, and the quantity is not very large, and the people behind them are good at using the people, which makes the salt of these shops [-]% lower than other places from the beginning.

As far as the common people are concerned, although the salt in this grocery store is cheap, sometimes there is a little bit of needlework. Therefore, even though these grocery stores are located in places with poor locations, the common people are still willing to go to these stores to buy all kinds of things. .

This turned the surrounding area of ​​these grocery stores into a commercial area in disguise.And the shopkeepers who have been instructed by Xue Baochai have already bought the space around the grocery store, and now they are either leasing or doing other business, and they don't worry about popularity.

The disadvantage of this method is that the initial investment is large, but once the popularity rises, the prices of the shops will also rise. In short, it will not take ten years to pay back the rent of the surrounding shops alone.

The author has something to say:

I don’t know if this investment method looks familiar to everyone.
