The atmosphere in the Emperor's car became strange. Cai Boqi and Yan Shu glared at each other, while Zhao Zhen leaned on the soft cushions and looked at the two with a smile. It's a good thing to have differences. Dad's way of checks and balances is a point.

That's right, the two have already started talking about how to exchange interests.

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "What Cai Boqi said is correct. Businessmen are also divided into three, six, and nine grades, with high and low levels. The taxes can also be divided in this way. Small businessmen and hawkers charge lower taxes, and their monthly profits exceed 800 yuan.

Will charge higher taxes, but the court will provide orders as subsidies, how about this is better? "

Cai Boqi hurriedly smiled and said: "That's good, that's good! But the court's orders shouldn't be taxed, right?" He knew that the court's orders were often very large, and he was not the only one who purchased the goods in one go.

Cai Ji can afford it, not to mention that the imperial court's orders are not only for the expenses of the palace, but also for various other things, including clothes for the soldiers, raw materials for the generals, expenses for the yamen, etc. These are all money.

ah!

Yan Shu looked at Cai Boqi's proud look and sneered: "It's not easy to make money in the imperial court! If something goes wrong, you have to ask someone else!"

"You don't have to say this?" Cai Boyi retorted angrily.

Zhao Zhen looked at the two of them with a wry smile. Although his words were unforgiving, there was no trace of anger in his heart. "I'm just telling you this first. Don't make it public. When I return to Beijing from Gong County, I will let the Third Division

A specific document must be drawn up and discussed between the DPRK and the Central Government before it can be finalized and disseminated to the people.”

Zhao Zhen's words made Yan Shu nod repeatedly. That was right. Before, he was afraid that the officials would avoid the court to issue the imperial edict, but now it seems that the officials still abide by the laws of their ancestors and the covenant between the king and his ministers.

Compared to Yan Shu, who breathed a sigh of relief, Cai Boqi felt comfortable. The official notified him of this kind of thing in advance, which showed that Cai Ji still had a high status in the official's heart, but he forgot that Cai Ji knew about it.

It's like the general knows it.

Zhao Zhen was using Cai Ji's mouth to tell the generals that the commercial reform of the Song Dynasty was about to begin. To develop industry and commerce, we must first formulate standardized industry regulations. Others usually support industry and commerce first and then gradually formulate them through exploration.

Standards, but Zhao Zhen is different. He comes from a later generation and knows the pros and cons of industry and commerce. He can make improvements based on existing standards, which saves him a lot of time and experience.

Moreover, with Cai Boqi and Yan Shu here, the well-established rules can allow them to make plans to avoid things that are too advanced.

The emperor's chariot is actually a mobile palace. It not only has soft carpets, warm carbon basins, but also imperial desks and bookshelves. It is also fully equipped with pens, inks, papers and inkstones. As long as it can be used, you can find it in this chariot.

, Zhao Zhen secretly sighed: This car is probably equivalent to the RV of later generations!

The team advanced slowly. Cai Boqi and Yan Shu stood up and walked towards Cai Ji's carriage. No matter how sleepy they were, they did not want to stay in the large dragon carriage for the night. Zhao Zhen watched the two people flee in embarrassment.

He looked strange and asked Peng Qi: "Why are they running so fast? Do I have any man-eating beasts?"

Peng Qi suppressed his blush and shook his head. Sancai, who had been busy all day, explained with a smile: "This is a place with no village in front of it and no store in the back. You don't want to spend the night in a nearby squire's house. This dragon carriage is quite an official residence."

It’s your bedroom.”

The corner of Zhao Zhen's mouth twitched. No wonder the two boys ran so fast. The minister who stayed in the emperor's palace overnight would no longer have to be a human being...

The long convoy was parked in the wilderness. This was Zhao Zhen's request. The convoy was strictly prohibited from entering the village. A team of four to five thousand people lined up. Do you still want the farmland in the village? It's already early spring, and the food in the ground may have already been exhausted.

After planting, Zhao Zhen saw on the road that there was already some lush greenery in the fields.

Even though these imperial squadrons had been transformed by the Sanwei, Zhao Zhen did not want to disturb the lives of the people. However, contrary to expectations, the food supply for the team still had to be obtained from the local area. The squire and local chieftains of Baisha Town came one after another with Xiangyi specialties.

Condolence.

The so-called Xiangyi specialties are just fresh food such as chickens, ducks, and fish, which are nothing to civil and military officials and may even be a little shabby, but to ordinary farmers they are already considered quite valuable gifts.

But Zhao Zhen nodded with satisfaction. Very good. It seemed that they all knew what the team was lacking most after a tiring day.

The team was not only composed of officials, but also the imperial guards. The ones on horseback were better off, but the ones walking on the road holding banners and honor guards were much more miserable. These local specialties just replenished their physical strength.

The three meals a day of the Song Dynasty people were different from those of later generations. In the evening, they often had to make up for a supper to end the day. The cooking class that followed the team was the only one among the three guards of the prince that survived and was not broken up. Zhao

Zhen felt that the cooking class leader's skills were very good and suitable for making big pot meals, so he let the entire cooking class directly join the imperial classes and become a brand new organization.

Five thousand forbidden troops set up camp on the spot, and the wood in the woods came into full play, either becoming fence gates or wooden stakes for tents. Several cauldrons were placed in the center of the camp, and there were many

The firewood is lit for both heating and barbecue.

There was only one Wang Zeng accompanying the princes in the court, and Zhao Zhen deliberately asked the others to stay in Tokyo. He plausibly said that political affairs cannot be separated from the handling of the princes. He also specifically asked Chen Lin to deliver the processed official documents.

Just go to the imperial study room. If there are urgent documents, they can be delivered directly to your office by express delivery.

In fact, this was to avoid the shackles of civil servants, but after discussion, the ministers of the two palaces still pushed Wang Zeng out of the government, and the late emperor was buried in the mausoleum. What would it be like without any of the ministers present? The joint names of Kou Zhun and Ding Wei

The letter forced Zhao Zhen to take Wang Zeng with him.

The civil servants naturally gathered together, as did the generals. This was the inevitable result of the confrontation between civil and military officials, and there was also the small clan group. Since Zhao Zhen put down the rebellion of Prince Rong Zhao Yuanyan, he ransacked all the houses of Prince Rong and demoted them to common people.

After that, these clans became cautious and no one dared to talk to Zhao Zhen casually.

They were all relatives of the same clan, and they had to move around a lot in the past. The old people among them were even Zhao Zhen's uncles and elders. However, Zhao Yuanyan died after hitting the wall in the small room where Zongzhengsi kept the criminal clan. Before his death, he left a message on the wall.

Such words as his son made the clan members begin to look at Zhao Zhen, an official of the Great Song Dynasty, with fear.

The big pots in the cooking class are specially made by the blacksmith who is the general supervisor. The advantage of the iron pot is that it heats up quickly and saves time. This fully meets the needs of the army. Moreover, the secret of Cai Ji's cooking lies in the iron pot. Wen Chen

The generals all stared closely at the several large pots in the camp. The fat meat turned into lard soon after being thrown into the pot, and the charming aroma was emitted under the heating of the iron pot.

Zhao Zhen walked up to an old man among the people in the clan. He was Zhao Yuanzuo, who replaced Zhao Yuanyan as the clan leader. After all, he was a brother of his father and mother. Zhao Zhen should call him uncle or uncle.

, out of the courtesy of a junior, Zhao Zhen bowed respectfully to Zhao Yuanzuo and said: "Uncle Kang'an, my nephew is polite!"

"Officials are very polite. You are already the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Even among clans, no matter how old or young you are, you should treat them with the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers." Zhao Yuanzuo quickly returned the courtesy.

This old man is really as described in history books as a good old man.
