Chapter 280: Tithes

Emperor: "Although this lettuce only earns 700 trump cards in a year, it is not much compared to catching money. But if it is compared with planting other fruits and vegetables, it is already ten times or a hundred times huge profit."

When Li Chengqian heard his father say this, he also replied: "Father, 700 guan a year is just one crop of income. If the fertility of the land can keep up, at least three or four crops of lettuce can be planted a year..."

Qi Ling also said at this time: "Therefore, our estimated total income in a year should be between 2,000 and 3,000 guan. In fact, it will be able to mature in two months after planting lettuce. The vegetable grows very fast."

"Two months?" the emperor.

Qiling nodded.

If it was really two months, the emperor would have nothing to say.

After visiting the whole vegetable field, there is nothing to say. It is different from the vegetable field of other people I have seen. When I look at it, I reveal an unusual feeling.

Fortunately, this unusual is understandable. Therefore, even when people are farming in the fields, they see the situation here. Perhaps they are a little curious about who is so rich.

In fact, so many strange things were built on a field of less than 300 acres.

Especially the water trucks stand there one by one, as if they don't have money.

Isn’t this a waste of family?

Suddenly, this vegetable field was also made more mysterious. Perhaps in the eyes of more people, this is the happiness of rich people.

After visiting the vegetable field in the morning, there was naturally a lettuce banquet at noon.

When lettuce was eaten together with other foods, the emperor realized the wonderful use of lettuce.

Emperor: "This lettuce is really good! It not only increases the taste of the food, but also makes the food less greasy. It also produces saliva in the mouth, greatly increasing my appetite."

Li Chengqian: "If your father likes to eat, eat more."

Emperor: "Crown Prince, you know that there is such delicious food, why don't you tell your father and mother earlier?"

Li Chengqian: "Well! This is because I haven't eaten twice. The last time I ate it, except for Huai Mo and Hongcheng who sent the first crop into the palace, it was when I was entertaining the Qushui Liushang banquet where the scholars reached the top."

Back to the palace.

Because it is not good to go to Cheng Huaimo's house.

So, in the end, the lettuce feast was taken back to the palace directly.

During the banquet, Cheng Huaimo, Qi Ling, and Qingzhu and Li Hongcheng were also summoned to the palace.

Now sitting here is basically the main person in charge of the Women's Thirty-Two Music House.

Of course, Yaoyao is here at this time.

and……

Yaoyao also met Xiaoqing and Daqin.

These two people have been brought back because they had been watering the fields before.

The first time they entered the palace, the two of them sat upright.

But it also made Yaoyao feel very funny.

After all, when were these two people passing by?

The emperor summoned everyone into the palace, so naturally he had a purpose.

After a pause, the emperor then said, "I have seen the large-scale planting of your women's Thirty-Two Lefang today. It doesn't look like a fool, but can actually grow grain and vegetables. But what I care more about is that the canal transportation, are you really sure?"

Then……

Everyone's eyes were both doubts and inquiries.

And of course, this inquiry was all about Yaoyao.

Because Yaoyao said that he wanted to carry out the canal transportation, they were actually not very clear, whether it was Cheng Huaimo, Li Hongcheng, Qiling, Qingzhu and the others.

Seeing that everyone looked at him, Yaoyao also thought to herself, don’t do this!

If you all see this way, it seems to have a lot to do with me?

I just provide you with a way of thinking. Do you understand the way of thinking?

Alas, but in the end, Yaoyao still stopped struggling.

Because if she talks about her understanding of the canal reform, she is naturally much deeper than these people.

at this time……

It was also from his own position that he slowly stood up.

Of course, the emperor naturally made her not have to get up.

But it is not good for pregnant women to sit for a long time, so it is not completely useless for Yaoyao to stand up and move.

Yaoyao stood up and replied respectfully: "Father, this canal transportation is the top priority of the lifeline of our Beichen economy and finance. If one day Beichen will not work, it must be that the canal transportation has been abolished. Of course, my ministers dare not speak nonsense for such a national event. However, according to my ministers' theory, after the reform, the canal transportation is ten times more efficient than before, which is absolutely possible."

The emperor said, "What basis are you based on? I really can't disclose any of it?"

Yaoyao replied: "No. But if the father agrees now, I can guarantee that within three years, no, within two years, the father will immediately see the results."

The emperor said, "I have promised the prince that if it can be accomplished, it will be left to you to do it."

Yaoyao said, "Son Master, no, it should be said that the 32 women's music shop will definitely not disappoint the father's expectations, but next, I think I still have to talk about the distribution of interests."

In fact, this distribution of interests is the top priority.

How to charge taxes? Should the woman’s 32 Lefang directly take physical goods or money?

In fact, Yaoyao hasn't considered these yet.

But since it is a canal transportation, most of them should definitely be physical objects.

For example, chestnut rice, rice, silk, silk, and cloth.

So if it was a boat of millet, how much tax would they charge?

One tenth? Or one twenty?

She has to at least ensure that the woman's Thirty-Two Lefang will not lose.

After all, this transportation also costs money.

And if you smoke too much, Yaoyao is afraid that the woman will grow too fast.

but……

In the end, Yaoyao gritted her teeth and said, "Someone must be rich first and then rich." Everyone rented the country and the whole country were so poor that they could not support it if they fought a war. They were killed by the war and hungry. This is certainly the most beneficial to the rule of the country, which is good...

But her goal is to make Li Chengqian the emperor of the ages.

Therefore, to achieve this goal, she must have a rich man behind the scenes who are rich and wealthy to support her.

Therefore, Yaoyao finally said: "My son thinks that in the future, the thirty-two women's Lefang and the court should take tithes taxes." That is one tenth.

More than one tenth?

This must be a lot.

Because if the court obtained one million stones of food, the woman's Thirty-Two Lefang would take away 100,000 stones. However, in the future, what the woman's Thirty-Two Lefang did was not a project worth hundreds of millions in a minute. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with getting more in the early stage.

"Cough!" No matter how Li Chengqian thought, he never expected that Yaoyao would have so much, and he almost got choked.

Fortunately, Yaoyao also added: "In the first ten years, tithing tax was adopted, and then 15 taxes were taken, and then 20 taxes were added, and 30 taxes were taken, and then 50 years later."

The emperor's face was only slightly better.

After the banquet, the emperor went back to chat with the queen and couldn't help but wonder: "I doubt whether Yaoyao belongs to our Li family. Why do you think this is like helping the woman kill me in the Thirty-Two Music Floor?"

Of course the queen was confused, but she didn't think Yaoyao was the kind of greedy person. But...

The emperor said this, which reminded her that this month, Yaoyao gave generous rewards to the female officials and palace maids of the East Palace.

"Your Majesty is probably too worried." The queen said at last.
