Chapter 1597 Visit

Zhangzhou’s tax revenue is still at the bottom, because the tax is confiscated for the cultivation of medicinal materials in wasteland, and the tax is exempted for three years, and the tax will come up after two years.

Although the tax collection is at the bottom, the people of Zhangzhou believe that the government has one or two acres of wasteland to grow medicinal materials.

The people have money in their hands, and Zhangzhou is also less lifeless this year.

The emperor saw how unhappy, because the success of a state means that it can be replicated, and as long as the right way is found according to local conditions, the people will be able to live well.

Mr. Liu had a straight back, ignoring the jealous eyes.

Too many people regret letting the Liu family take the lead. Look at the data on the brochure, it's so good, and those who react slowly will know that if you continue, Zhangzhou will not be a poor state. What a great achievement!

Zhou Shuren was also relieved. It was Liu Feng's idea to grow medicinal herbs.

After Zaochao, Mrs. Liu was surrounded by congratulatory people, and Zhou Shuren also had many.

Li Zhao's tone was a little sour, "Your vision is really good."

When the granddaughter of Zhou’s family was married, who didn’t say a few words, especially the one who married with a widowed mother, who still talks about it now?

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, his tone was a little sullen, "No way, I just have a good eye."

Wang Chi is not envious, his son-in-law is also good, as for his grandson-in-law, he has no granddaughter!

Zhou Shuren and Mrs. Liu looked at each other and smiled. This is a win-win situation for the two families. We don’t ask for help in getting married, but we only want to not hold back. A powerful in-law like the Zhou family is rare!

So there are more people staring at Yuwen. A few days later, Su Xuan came to the main courtyard with a bunch of posts, "Mother, take a look?"

Zhulan looked up from the painting she just bought, "So many?"

A cursory look at a dozen posts.

Su Xuan, "This is today's post. The top one is the tea banquet at the Yongan Imperial Palace."

Zhulan put down the painting and picked up the post from the Guogongfu, "Although the Guogongfu has always been low-key, it is still the Guogongfu. I don't know how much wealth I have accumulated. Zhuo Guyu has become famous this year and wants to marry the Guogongfu. A lot."

Su Xuan nodded, "Yes, last time I was at the Qin Palace, the Qin family was too eager, and the lady who went to the banquet knew it. Although it didn't spread, I really didn't want to be invited. ."

Zhulan put down the post, "You can't hide, you can't hide today, you can't hide tomorrow, the government does not dare to go too far."

Su Xuan listened to her mother-in-law's determined tone and asked, "Why?"

Zhulan motioned for the girls to go down, motioned Su Xuan to come over and whisper, "Because the Emperor Taishang does not like the Duke Yong'an Mansion, and your father-in-law is highly valued by the royal family, the old father-in-law does not dare to offend your father."

Su Xuan's brain reacted quickly and got angry, "So you use my daughter as a ladder?"

Zhulan smiled and said, "After the Emperor Taishang was seriously ill, his body got better and better."

means that the Emperor Taishang can still live, which surprised Zhulan. In the end, Shuren told her with certainty that the Emperor Taishang seemed to have seen it, and his body and bones were indeed healed.

Su Xuan, "Old Duke is anxious for his grandson."

"Wrong, he was in a hurry for the government of the country."

All the way from the grassroots to the days, the scheming is so deep. In the past, I gave up the Taishanghuang to protect myself, and it is strange that the Taishanghuang did not remember it. For so many years, the neglect of Yong'an Guogong's mansion is proof. long gone.

Su Xuan stood up and turned around twice, "It's a good abacus."

Her father-in-law has a lot of face in the royal family. She has been numb over the years. If her father-in-law pulls, the Yongan government can get out of the predicament. When she thinks of the calculation, she becomes angry.

Su Xuan pinched the post of the Guogongfu, "Me and Yuwen are going to the banquet."

"Well, we don't need to hide, but it's as if we're scared. How can you come here? An He is the county owner, she doesn't need to feel wronged."

The bigger the trouble, the happier the emperor will be.

Su Xuan was relieved, and noticed the painting again, "Mother, this painting is not in this painting, I bought it newly?"

Zhulan smiled and nodded, "Yeah, Changzhong bought it and specially asked the servant to send it back."

Su Xuan looked at Xuemei's picture carefully, "It's really good."

Zhulan laughed, "Well, five taels of silver."

Su Xuan was surprised, "So cheap?"

The painting in the hands of my mother-in-law, this is the cheapest one. The most expensive is the painting of my brother-in-law. More and more people collect the paintings of my brother-in-law. Unfortunately, my brother-in-law does not paint so diligently, and the price is getting higher and higher.

Zhulan, "Changzhong bought it back, it should be someone he knows, I think it's good, and I want your brother-in-law to see it."

Su Xuan is not interested in these, so her mother-in-law likes it very much, "Mother, then I will go back first."

"Ok."

In the evening, Zhou Shuren came back to see the painting, "Is this painting also bought in the painting building?"

"Changzhong bought it from Gu Sheng."

Zhou Shuren heard Gu Sheng's name again, "He can still paint?"

"According to Changzhong, Gu Sheng was very popular in his hometown. He taught him how to paint. All the repairs he did in his hometown came from painting."

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "There is indeed a chance."

Zhulan nodded, "I heard from Changzhong that Gu Sheng recently sold three paintings to save some money. Recently, he rented a small courtyard alone and moved out of the courtyard."

Zhou Shuren was surprised, "My son pays so much attention to him?"

Zhulan, "This person has good knowledge. Your son wants to meet more."

Zhou Shuren doesn't care about his younger son making friends. He and Wu Ming raised their children by themselves. It is too difficult to deceive Changzhong.

The next day, Changzhong and his brother-in-law took a carriage to find Gu Sheng. The alley was too narrow for the carriage of Hou’s house to pass, so he had to stop at the entrance of the alley.

Jiang Sheng has never been to this place, but he knows it. "Every year, the people who go to Beijing to take the exam will rent the yard here."

Because it is near the place where the Imperial Examination takes place.

Changzhong sighed, "It's weirdly cold today."

Jiang Sheng looked at the boy beside him Are you still cold after wearing so much? "

"It's cold, brother-in-law, let's go quickly."

"good."

The two quickly followed the little servant's directions to the gate of the small courtyard. The servant knocked on the door and waited for a while for Gu Sheng to open the door: "Sir, sir, please."

Changzhong was about to come to the door, so yesterday he sent a servant to inform him. He entered the yard.

Gu Sheng bought tea yesterday, boiled the water early, and brewed the tea himself: "I am alone."

Jiang Sheng's eyes fell on the table, there were still paintings on it, he endured it, but still didn't get up, "I saw your paintings yesterday."

Gu Sheng sat up straight. He knew the son-in-law of the Zhouhou mansion. He had never seen this painting, but he heard that many people liked it.

Jiang Sheng smiled, "I can't talk about pointing, we can discuss one or two."

At this time, someone knocked on the door again, Gu Sheng got up apologetically, opened the door and saw Ji Gongzi, "Why are you here?"
