Chapter 486

Wei Hao braved the rain and returned to the Governor's Mansion from the outside. The soldiers who stayed behind in the Governor's Mansion had already received the news.

"My lord, the hot water is ready, you should wash up quickly, or you will catch a cold easily!" Wei Hao had just dismounted, when a soldier came to Wei Hao and said to Wei Hao.

"Okay!" Wei Hao walked into the house wearing the coir raincoat. When he reached the eaves, Wei Hao's personal soldiers took off the coir raincoat for Wei Hao, and then helped Wei Hao take off the outer soft armor. Wei Hao went inside the house, Some soldiers brought Wei Hao's boots in a hurry and put them on for Wei Hao.

"My lord, all the clothes are ready!" A soldier came over and said to Wei Hao.

"En!" Wei Hao got up, and immediately went to the bathing place. After washing, Wei Hao sat next to the tea set.

"My lord, the grain at the warehouse is full. We sent someone to check and they are all full. This time I heard that Wang Biejia paid almost 400 yuan!" A soldier stood there and faced Wei Hao. the report said.

"Okay!" Wei Hao nodded.

"Young master, these days, those patriarchs have come to inquire every day. In addition, the head of the Wei family has also come, and the head of the Du family has also brought Du Gou!" Another soldier said, Wei Hao still nodded, Make tea for yourself there.

"In addition, the patriarchs of other families, as well as a large number of businessmen, and the Shu Palace, the Yue Palace, the East Palace, and other palaces have also sent people here, and the dukes' houses have also sent people here, However, no one from Dai Guogong, Su Guogong, etc. was found." The soldier continued to speak, Wei Hao nodded, and the two soldiers saw that Wei Hao had no orders, so they bowed their hands and said goodbye.
Dai Guogong Li Jing, Su Guogong Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Jingde didn’t need to send people at all. Wei Hao would naturally bring them with him if he had business. They didn’t want to add trouble to Wei Hao now, but the others The Duke, some of whom are not familiar with Wei Hao, did not dare to bother Wei Hao, and now they are just sending people over to inquire and make arrangements first.

"My lord, don't drive to see me!" A personal guard outside came over and reported to Wei Hao.

"No, tell him, I'm tired today, and I won't see anyone. If it's not an important matter, no, if it's an important matter, hand over the notebook!" Wei Hao said to the guard, now Wei Hao just wants to Take a break, I just returned to Luoyang, I don't want to talk to them, now everyone wants to inquire about the news, and Wei Hao said he couldn't see Wang Rongyi, Wang Rongyi didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction, the difference is too big, let alone one, don't drive, It's just a servant, Shangshu, Wei Hao will disappear if he doesn't see him, no one dares to complain.

Wei Hao sat there and drank tea for a while, then returned to his study, sorted out what he had seen and heard in the past few days, and marked it on the map, where he had been and where he had not been , has been busy until evening,

And at this moment in Chang'an City, Li Shimin also received news that many people had gone to Luoyang.

"This kid, ha, it's good to go, I just hope that Luoyang can also develop, but this bastard, why didn't he even send a memorial, and didn't tell me what he thought of Luoyang!" Li Shimin Sitting there, complaining.

"Your Majesty, at this time, it is impossible for Shen Yong to send me a memorial. If I have an idea, I guess I will wait for him to come back before telling you. Do you know how many people went to Luoyang? They are all asking for information. Yes, as soon as the memorial is delivered, it must first go to Zhongshu Province. There are so many officials in Zhongshu Province.
Regarding Wei Hao's memorial, it is not a matter of confidentiality, it will definitely be leaked out, and everyone knows that Shen Yong will go to Luoyang, then there must be some action! "Fang Xuanling sat there, stroking her beard and saying.

"Well, yes, I hope this kid can have ideas, but he has gone, and nothing has changed at all. I thought he would take down Wang Rongyi. I didn't expect Wei Hao to let it go. But when I think about it, this kid is still grew up a lot,
If it was before, then Shen Yong would definitely not let it go. Now he knows that if Wang Rongyi is taken down, Luoyang will be left alone. The new one, don't drive, it is impossible to arrive so soon, even if it does arrive, it cannot Get to work now! "Li Shimin sat there and said with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty, I have a request, that is!" Fang Xuanling cupped her hands at the moment, but she was not ashamed to say it.

"I have my own considerations about Fang Yizhi. You don't need to think about it. Don't say you want to send it to Luoyang. I won't allow it! Since Shen Yong regards Fang Yizhi so highly, I believe Shen Yong will also I don't want Fang Yi to work under me!" Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling and said.

"Ah, yes, yes!" Fang Xuanling didn't dare to open his mouth when he heard Li Shimin say that. He hoped that Fang Yizhi could go to Luoyang to take up an official position.

"This kid has been running down there every day during this time. It can be seen that Shen Yong still attaches great importance to governing the people. I really don't know about other officials. When he took office, he would go down to understand the people, but Shen Yong During this period of time, it has been like this every day, and I am very pleased. Shen Yong, this child, either does not do it, or does it well. In this regard, many officials in the court are not as good as him!

By the way, pharmacist, you should also entrust him with some military affairs. He is the governor now, and he also needs to command the army. I also hope that he can command the army. This kid is very capable in governing the people. I also hope that he will be able to run the army and have great commanding skills. In this case, I will feel more at ease! " Li Shimin said and looked at Li Jing,

Li Jing nodded, and said: "When he comes back, I will definitely teach him, and I hope he will learn well!"

"Well, let's see, Luoyang, there will definitely be big changes. By the way, inform the official department that the county magistrates recommended by the official department need to be reviewed by Shen Yong. Shen Yong nods before he can be appointed. Shen Yong does not nod." , cannot be appointed!" Li Shimin thought about it and said to Fang Xuanling.

"This, Your Majesty, will the ministers object to this?" Fang Xuanling hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Shimin and asked, this would give Wei Hao too much power.

"Luoyang needs to be governed and developed well. If some capable county magistrates are not given, then how can we govern, and it will cause trouble for Shen Yong? This is the case? Let's not delay Shen Yong, let go Hand, let Shenyong do it, I don't want the development of Luoyang to be delayed because of those county magistrates!" Li Shimin said while sitting there, looking at Fang Xuanling.

"Yes, I will notify the officials later!" Fang Xuanling nodded immediately.

Early the next morning, Wei Hao got up to practice martial arts. The weather is getting colder now, with autumn rains and cold. Nowadays, it is very cold in the morning and evening. When Wei Hao practiced martial arts, those soldiers had already prepared bath water ,

After Wei Hao finished practicing martial arts, Wei Hao went to take a bath, then went to the living room to have breakfast, and looked at the official documents. These official documents were sent by the county magistrates below, and also by Wang Rongyi. Wei Hao carefully watched what happened in Luoyang Mansion The matter, in fact, is not a big deal, just to report the daily situation. After Wei Hao read the circle, he handed it over to his own soldiers and asked them to send it to Wang Biejia.

"Young Master, Young Master, the patriarch is here!" Wei Hao had just rested and was about to rest for a while when he saw Wei Dashan coming in.

"Hey, why did he come here?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Dashan with a headache and said.

"It seems that other patriarchs have come to Luoyang, and our family's patriarch has also come." Wei Dashan stood there and said.Wei Hao thought about it. In fact, Wei Hao didn't want to see him, but since they all came, it would be bad if he didn't see them.

"Let the patriarch come in!" Wei Hao sighed, then walked to the tea table and started to boil water. After a while, Wei Yuanzhao came over, and Wei Hao didn't go out to greet him. One was because he didn't want to, and the other was because he Also bother him.

"Shen Yong, you are not easy to see!" Wei Yuanzhao said after entering, looking at Wei Hao with a smile.

"I said Patriarch, what are you doing here?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao helplessly and said.

"Ah? Something's going on, how can it be all right!" Wei Yuanzhao came over and sat down and said.

"Patriarch, I know what you think. Now I don't know how to govern Luoyang. You said you came here. I haven't made any plans here. If you come here, what valuable things can you find out?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao with a wry smile again and said.

"It's worth it. What's certain now is that you want to govern Luoyang well, right? You just mentioned the plan!" Wei Yuanzhao wasn't annoyed either, knowing that there must be a reason why Wei Hao didn't see those people, and seeing him now If you can protect yourself, that is your own glory, and I don't know how many people will envy it.

"Hey, what a treacherous and cunning man!" Wei Hao said with a sigh, and poured tea for Wei Yuanzhao.

"Shen Yong, maybe all your workshops will be here. Besides, those workshops in Chang'an City will be relocated here? Is there any news?" Wei Yuanzhao stared at Wei Hao asked.

"My workshop will be opened here, but the workshop in Chang'an City will not be relocated. It is very good now. If it is relocated, it will increase a lot of expenses, and it will also reduce the cost of Chang'an City. Taxation, of course, some workshops need to be expanded. At that time, they may build new workshops in Luoyang. The workshops in Chang'an are mainly for the north, northwest,

And the workshops in Luoyang are mainly sold to the northeast and the south. I don’t care if you can get shares in those workshops of mine. You know, this is all determined by the royal family, and those newly opened factories Fang, I guess they will not want to add new shareholders, so, this matter, you should go to His Majesty, not me! "Wei Hao stared at Wei Yuanzhao and said.

"That's what I said, but now the people also have a lot of opinions. It is said that all the wealth in the world is gathered in the royal family. It may not be a good thing if the royal family is powerful? In addition, the money that originally belonged to the Ministry of Civil Affairs is now When it comes to internal funds, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has no money, but the royal family has money.
It is even said that the annual income of the royal family may exceed that of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. You said, how could the common people agree to this? I heard that many officials are planning to write a letter to discuss this matter, that is, the new workshop opened in the future, the royal family cannot continue Take the shares, give those shares to the Ministry of Civil Affairs! "Wei Yuanzhao sat there, looked at Wei Hao and said.

"What did you say?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao in surprise. He didn't know the news yet. Those ministers actually wanted to write a letter?
"To tell you the truth, not only officials from aristocratic families want to write letters, but also many officials from poor families, and even many ministers, Lord Marquis, and some dukes of the state will also write letters. The royal family controls half of the world's wealth. Is that okay? In the hall, how many things need to spend money, just say the Weihe Bridge and the Bahe Bridge. Now ministers and businessmen also hope that other big rivers will build such bridges, but the Ministry of Civil Affairs has no money, and the royal family, they will take money. Pay so much money to repair the bridge?" Wei Yuanzhao stared at Wei Hao and said.

"No, whose idea is it? It's nothing to do, right? Go write a letter and say this? The royal family has spent a lot of money to build the place in the past few years!" Wei Hao stared at Wei Yuanzhao and said very dissatisfied. They did this, maybe It will cause royal dissatisfaction and Li Shimin's wrath.

"It's not someone's idea, it's the understanding of the officials and the people in the world. Why don't you understand? The royal family controls too much wealth, and the people have no money. The lack of money in the Ministry of Civil Affairs means that the court has no money. You It is said that if the royal family is rich and the Ministry of Civil Affairs is poor, the world will be poor. Is this possible? Who has no objection?
Shen Yong, you can't stop this matter, even if you stop it for a while, this matter will continue to advance, and many ministers even suggested that the royal family needs to hand over the shares of those unimportant workshops. For the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the royal family originally supported the royal family. With so much money, how would the common people view the royal family? "Wei Yuanzhao continued to look at Wei Hao and said, Wei Hao was very upset at the moment, he stood up immediately, and walked in the living room with his hands behind his back.

"Shen Yong, you'd better not stop this matter. You can't stop it. Now those ministers are also submitting letters one after another. Not to mention those ministers, even those young people who took part in the imperial examination in the past two years are also submitting letters. The same goes for county magistrates everywhere." Wei Yuanzhao turned around, looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Whose idea, who has the ability to connect so many officials?" Wei Hao stared at Wei Yuanzhao very dissatisfied and said.

"No one's idea, but those officials, that's how it feels now. They think that the royal family interferes too much in local affairs!" Wei Yuanzhao emphasized again.

"Phew, if you do this, big things will happen. You don't know how many people will fall to the ground. Just watch! If you are full, the money will still fall on the heads of the people after all. Why bother?" It's not up to His Majesty to fight for the so-called status, which falls on the Ministry of Civil Affairs and internal money?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao angrily and said.

"Shen Yong, that's what you said, but it's different. The officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs can make decisions about the money of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but only His Majesty can make decisions about the money in the internal funds. Your Majesty is willing to take it out now, but in the future, you still have to use it." Yes, if the emperor is changed, would he still be willing to take it out? Shen Yong, what that official did may not be wrong!" Wei Yuanzhao said while sitting there, staring at Wei Hao.

"I know, but the timing is wrong, you know, the timing is wrong!" Wei Hao said anxiously to Wei Yuanzhao.

"Then what do you say is the right time? Now the court needs money everywhere. Chang'an City is developing so well. Who is not jealous of other cities? Who doesn't like the development of their hometown? Three years ago, the lives of the people in Chang'an City The level is not much different from Taiyuan and Luoyang, but now, it is much worse!

Also, there are Bahe and Weihe bridges in Chang'an, but what does Luoyang have, and what does Taiyuan have?This money comes from internal funds. Why doesn't His Majesty pay for the repair of those bridges in Luoyang and Taiyuan?If it was the Ministry of Civil Affairs, officials from all over the country would apply for it, and bridges would also be built, but now the money comes from internal funds, how do you ask everyone to apply?How does the Ministry of Civil Affairs approve it? Wei Yuan looked at Wei Hao and continued to argue. Wei Hao was very helpless, so he returned to his seat and sat down, drinking tea. "Shen Yong, you really need to stand by the officials this time!" "Wei Yuanzhao said persuading Wei Hao.

"Stand on the yarn, what are you kidding?" Wei Hao glared at Wei Yuanzhao, and Wei Yuanzhao looked at Wei Hao helplessly.

"Even if you are right, but this money, I still hope to give internal funds. You don't know, His Majesty has been preparing to kill the surrounding countries that threaten Datang. If you want to rely on the Ministry of Civil Affairs to accumulate it, how long does it take to accumulate it?" Go?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao and said, Wei Yuanzhao heard it and smiled wryly.

"What, I'm not right?" Wei Hao asked, staring at Wei Yuanzhao.

"Of course not! War is a matter for the court and the world. How can you rely on internal funds? You have to rely on the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The Ministry of War fights. You need to ask the Ministry of Civil Affairs for money, not the royal family! If you do this If you say it, it needs to be handed over to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, not to the royal family!" Wei Yuanzhao continued to argue with Wei Hao.

"You know what I mean, I mean accumulation!" Wei Hao stared at Wei Yuanzhao and said, not wanting to play that kind of word game with him.

"Yes, I know, but do you know how extravagant the life of the royal children is now? Those royal children all have their own palaces, and those feudal vassal kings have each received 2 coins this year, saying yes It is necessary to govern the territory, but the money is not used to govern the territory at all, but the vassal kings have spent it themselves, is it fair?

Also, have you ever counted how many houses the royal children have built in these years? It didn't go through the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the money was paid from internal funds. Shen Yong, is this fair?Is it fair to the people of the world?
You said it was to prepare for war, but you go and check, how much money is left in the internal funds, and what did they do for the Ministry of War?Did they purchase food and grass, or made armor? "Wei Yuanzhao sat there and questioned Wei Hao. Wei Hao didn't know how to answer the question. He really didn't know how the internal money was spent.
