The days when I was working in the West Factory

Chapter 463 Zhang Taiyue's Ambition
"Grandpa, what else do you want to do?"

Not to mention Zhao Yu, even Erha beside him was aroused by Zhang Wei's curiosity.

With every gesture, millions of soldiers in the guards disappeared like a cloud, but looking at the old man's posture, it seemed that he had no intention of stopping at all.

"The former emperor Taizu founded the country, exempting the world's famous people and powerful relatives from taxes, this did not appear in the Taizu emperor's time.

But after hundreds of years of reproduction, the number of these people has far exceeded the range that the people of the Central Plains can bear.

And after so many years, a large amount of land is in the hands of these people, and the common people have no land to cultivate, so they can only be reduced to tenants and refugees! "

"You...you are really crazy!"

This time, even Ah Fa's eyes widened in shock from these words.

He was from the Baolong family, after all, he was not comparable to mud-legged people like Zhao Yu and Erha.

The taxation and land mu system of the nobles in the world are not only established by the previous or new dynasty, but have been such rules since the beginning of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

The nobles in the world are naturally supported by the people in the world, this is the truth!

But now the old man in front of him, whose eyes were buried in the dirt, actually threatened to break this truth!
"Floral kings, nobles, and gentry all have a certain number of tax-free acres. It's just that in the past few hundred years, the use of land to avoid taxes has been common, which has gradually gathered all the land in the world into the hands of nobles... "

Zhang Wei talked eloquently, with a morbid flush appearing on his face.

"You want to re-measure the acres?"

Zhao Yu didn't wait for Zhang Wei to finish, he raised his eyebrows slightly and continued, "Do you still want to implement the provincial inspection and evaluation system for officials in the two capitals and thirteen provinces after the measurement of the fields? Do you still want to implement the return of mulberry fields to farmers? "

"Um?!"

This time, it was Zhang Wei's turn to be shocked.

He has thought about all these things that Zhao Yu said, and some of them are just a vague concept, and no one should know about them except himself!

"It's no wonder Mr. Zhao has managed to get to where he is today in just one year with the mere job of inspecting the department of hundreds of households!!"

After Zhang Wei was horrified, he stood up to Zhao Yu and bowed sincerely.

Zhao Yu's words can no longer be described as insightful, even he knows that he is just thinking about it, the people in Jinyiwei... are all so fierce?
Seeing Zhang Wei admit it, Zhao Yu scratched his head, looked at Zhang Wei again and asked, "My boy, is your real name Zhang Wei? No other name?"

"No?"

Zhang Wei was taken aback, and then said seriously: "This old man has been called this name since he was born, but when he got the second place in the imperial examination, Enshi took a word and called him 'Tai Yue'."

"Zhang Taiyue?"

"Yes!"

Zhao Yu looked at Zhang Wei, then nodded.Isn't this right...

"I also invite Mr. Zhao and the general manager to help the old man for the new dynasty!"

After saying that, Zhang Wei got up, bowed and bowed deeply to Zhao Yu and Ah Fa.

……

"My lord, the new emperor has ordered you to enter the palace immediately!"

Just when several people were planning to follow up, the middle-aged man who brought Zhao Yu here knocked on the door of the inner hall.

"Did something happen?"

Zhang Wei glanced at his followers and asked softly.

"Eunuch Chuanzhi didn't say anything, he just said that the new emperor called you to enter the palace as soon as possible!"

The entourage bent slightly and replied in a low voice.

At this moment, a guard in Jin Yi walked in with a new embroidered spring knife on his waist.

"My lord, Commander An received the order to enter the palace to face the saint, and specially sent his subordinates to invite Master Zhao to go with him!"

Jin Yiwei came in front of Zhao Yu, clasped his fists and said in a low voice.

Zhang Wei and Zhao Yu glanced at each other, and then they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

"understood!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand, then got up and looked at Ah Fa.

"I still have something to do with the military commander!"

Ah Fa stood up and left the courtyard without looking back.

……

After two sticks of incense, Zhao Yu and Zhang Wei came to Chengtian Gate together. From a distance, they saw that An Jianqing had been waiting for a long time.

"Commander An, do you know why His Majesty called us into the palace to face the saint?"

Zhang Wei took a step forward and asked An Jianqing.

"Looking back at Mr. Fu's words, it seems that some foreign merchants have come, and His Majesty is receiving them at Fengtian Palace!"

Foreign merchants?

When Zhao Yu heard An Jianqing's words, he became interested.

The three of them entered Chengtian Gate and followed Zhenlong Road all the way to the outside of Fengtian Hall.

At this moment, in the Fengtian Hall, apart from the chief officials from the Ministry of Rites, there are also four blond and blue-eyed foreign businessmen.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Wei, the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet, An Jianqing, Commander of Jinyiwei, and Master Zhao are waiting outside the hall."

The eunuch passing the decree quickly walked past the crowd, came to the foot of the Jiulong steps, and said softly.

"Xuan!"

Jiang Yuyan raised her hand slightly, and the eunuch who passed the decree immediately bowed and retreated.

After a while, the three of Zhao Yu walked into Fengtian Hall.

"Hello, &%%￥#..."

In the main hall, the foreign businessmen were chattering about something, while the head of the Ministry of Rites was sweating profusely.

But the two parties talked like chickens and ducks, and they didn't know what the other party was talking about.

Although the people in the Ministry of Rites also knew some foreign languages, the speech of these people in front of them was completely different from that of the Nanyang businessmen they had contacted before.

"Returning to Your Majesty, they may have come to the Central Plains for business, which means that they brought their local products..."

Seven or eight directors of the Ministry of Rites studied for a long time before they came up with a rough idea.

And Zhao Yu stood aside, looking at these foreign businessmen.

Don't be fooled, he can only hear the meaning of a few words.For him who graduated from the fourth level of university only by cheating and cheating, it is worse than those second swords from the Ministry of Rites.

"Souvenir products? Let them take them to the hall to have a look..."

Zhao Yu was obviously also interested, and then gave instructions to several people in the Ministry of Rites.

They were taken aback for a moment, then looked up at His Majesty the new emperor, saw Jiang Yuyan nodding, and one of them explained with gestures and words.

These foreigners looked at each other, and then ordered the followers to take the things into Fengtian Temple.

The foreign businessman standing in the first position walked up to a tray, lifted the red silk and displayed the contents on the tray.

"chili?!"

Zhao Yu stared at the objects in the tray.

No wonder I have been in this world for more than a year, and I always feel that something is missing...

Now that I see the peppers brought by foreign merchants, I understand.

"Since Mr. Zhao knows this thing, he also understands the function of this thing, right?"

Zhang Wei looked at Zhao Yu, really startled, there seemed to be nothing in the world that the young man in front of him didn't know.

"I do know a little..."

Different from other people facing these things, when Zhao Yu saw these things, he thought of a talent whom he ignored!
