"Opportunity? What kind of opportunities do you want? "

Li Yuan asked with great interest, looking at Xue Lang's eyes with a smile. Xue Lang went to the opposite of the sage and solemnly bowed and bowed and bowed solemnly: "I've spent a lot of energy to write something in a wooden box and put it in the thrifty place of my intimate servant who came into the palace with me. Please spare no time to read it! Please ask the sage to send someone to get it. Please ask the sage to give me the chance. Can you tell me after reading it

The sage looked up and down at Xue Lang and nodded: "yes!"

After the promise, he took a look at the Chamberlain beside him, who immediately understood and went out quickly.

After the internal servant went out, the sage was not in a hurry to ask questions. He waited patiently. The only eye God looked at Xue Lang from time to time. After Xue Lang said it all at once, he calmed down. He couldn't get back the water that had been spilled. He said everything that should be said or not. He was not nervous. In this way, the sage aroused a bit of interest and became more curious about what Xue Lang asked him to see.

After waiting for a while, the Chamberlain came back, holding a wooden box in his hand, and respectfully asked Xue Lang: "Xue Jun Gong, dare to ask, but this?"

Xue Lang nodded: "yes, thank you very much."

He personally took the wooden box from the waiter's hand, opened it, and took out a pile of paper -

the paper had been divided into three parts according to the content, and each of them was simply bound.

Xue Lang: please forgive me

With that, he went forward to separate the three things and put them side by side on the newly made imperial case of the sage. After putting it in place, he stepped back a few steps, bowed and arched his hands: "please see the sage."

With a smile on his face, the sage picked up the one on the left, and his face changed a lot as soon as he took a look at him. He suddenly looked up and looked at Xue Lang with a clear and clear look. He bent down and bowed in front of the surprised eyes of the sage.

The saint's expression was dignified and solemn. He lowered his head again. Instead of looking at the manuscript in his hand, he grabbed the second and third copies and looked at them. Only by looking at the title, the saint's expression became more and more dignified and more serious: "Xue Lang, do you know that cheating on the emperor is a big crime?"

Xue Lang solemnly said: "when returning to the sage, I dare to use the head on my neck to guarantee that everything written on the paper is true. If there is a false statement, Xue Lang will not die easily."

The sage took a deep look at him, lowered his head, picked up the manuscript and read it carefully. So big Zichen hall, for a time unexpectedly silent, drop needle can smell.

Xue Lang was looking at the sage with his eyes, but now he was a little nervous. He was more afraid that the saint could not understand what he wrote -

his diction and sentence making were almost vernacular. Should the saint have no dyslexia?

Xue Lang was a little nervous.

The first and the second were roughly read by the sage, but it was the third. The sage read it carefully. After reading it carefully, he would stop to meditate. After reading it, he closed his eyes and meditated for a while. Then he nodded, put down the manuscript paper, and looked at Xue Lang with admiration and relief in his eyes He said: "the art of salt making, bamboo papermaking, and the difference between the atlas of making fish scales and the yellow book", the Qing family's three strategies are more amazing than the other. Even I can't help shaking my heart when I read it. Why did the Qing family adopt these three strategies? Please come carefully. "

"Here it is

Xue Langlang said: "the first one is about the art of salt making. When I was in weizeguan, I had a general understanding of the current situation of salt industry in our dynasty because of assisting Princess Pingyang in military training. I knew that both the imperial court and the people were short of salt. Salt industry is related to the tax, the national economy and the people's livelihood, which is the top priority. Xue Lang was not talented, so he offered his salt making skills to the sage. He hoped that the saint's Treasury would be abundant, and there would be no shortage of salt in my dynasty. "

The saint nodded. Xue Lang then said: "the second part is the technology of making paper with bamboo as raw material. According to my observation, the paper used in my dynasty was made of hemp. However, the output of hemp is limited. Both weaving and papermaking are needed. The price of paper has always been high. I think the shortage of raw materials is the reason for most of them. Using bamboo as raw material can greatly save the cost of paper making. When the paper is cheap, the number of ordinary people who want to read will increase, and the number of people who want to read will become more and more, and the range of talents selected by sages will be wide. "

Xue Lang stopped and continued to explain: "the third, please build the fish scale atlas and yellow book. The tyranny of emperor Yang of the former dynasty made the people in dire straits and the world was in chaos. Today, the world, the number of acres of land, the number of households, I think there is no exact data. If the data is not accurate, there are big loopholes in levying corvee taxes. Those who do not abide by the law of the king will exploit loopholes, hide their fields and households, evade taxes, and the losses caused to the imperial court cannot be estimated. If we have built the fish scale atlas and the yellow book, we will have the basis and exact data. At present, there are few cases of annexing land and occupying cultivated land indiscriminately. There are almost no cases of farmers losing land. At this time, the construction of fish scale atlas and yellow book will not cost too much money and energy. The most important thing is that the book was built at the beginning of the state Dynasty. If anyone who despises the law of the king is playing with hidden fields and hidden households, he should think twice. Even if goudan Bao does it innocently, the court will not have no basis to rely on. "

Some words Xue Lang didn't say too well, but the sage should understand them. It was the aristocratic families who were the first to bear the brunt of the construction of fish scale atlas and yellow book, and they were the ones who liked to play hidden fields and hidden households.The biggest function of fish scale atlas and yellow book is to fix farmers on the land, reduce land annexation, reduce the probability of becoming a clandestine family in order to evade taxes, and strengthen the centralization of power.

The benefits should be understood by saints. Otherwise, I would not pay so much attention to the third manuscript, and I would read and think again and again.

Hearing this, the sage nodded his head and said, "although this policy is good, it will cost a lot to make it. There are Turks outside and bandits inside The former dynasty perished in levies and levies, does not sympathize with the public sentiment, my dynasty should take warning is, is difficult! hard! Difficult

Three difficult words in a row, the sage's hand is limited. Xue Lang said with a clear mind: "therefore, the three strategies presented by the minister are the first in salt making."

The most profitable and most taxed business in ancient times must be salt tax! The status of salt in ancient times is equivalent to that of modern petroleum, which is inseparable from everyone and closely related to production and life.

Xue Lang continued: "as far as I know, the salt produced by various salt wells is completely unable to meet the needs of the people. Mineral salt and sea salt are not well used because of their improper salt making techniques. The sage was told that if the new method offered by the minister was used, many would not dare to say that it would be absolutely impossible to double the current salt production. At that time, the salt tax generated should be used to support the various expenses of the imperial court, which should relieve the financial pressure of the court. What's more... "

Xue Lang stopped, and the sage urged, "what's more? Come quickly to the Qing family. "

"Here it is."

Xue Lang said: "what's more, the bamboo paper-making technology, the establishment of the fish scale atlas and the Yellow Book definitely needs a lot of paper. If bamboo paper is made at the right time, it can save a lot of costs. The government took the lead in adopting the bamboo paper, which could not be better for the promotion of bamboo paper. The so-called upper line, lower will be effective. It should not be difficult or far to replace hemp paper with bamboo paper! "
