After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

"Remember, the house is the current equity measure!"

Li Chenan said extremely seriously:

"Until commercial taxes are not significantly increased, it can be used, but it must not be abused!"

"Because... the money in the hands of the rich is more important to invest in technological improvement, workshop expansion, and commodity channels than to invest in buying a house!"

"The development of real estate will naturally develop after the whole society becomes rich in the future, but now the court needs to use some means."

"As for the land in the slum, if it is developed and sold, it can probably earn hundreds of millions of taels of money."

"Coupled with the annual tax revenue, this can basically support the expenses of our Ningguo court for two to three years."

"In two or three years, Ningguo's business will surely develop, and the continuous progress of industry and commerce will be like running water from a source!"

"Science, which is worthless in your eyes, is the chicken that keeps laying golden eggs!"

"My Lord Li, do you understand?"

When Wen Boyu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

When Li Wenhou heard this, his dark face suddenly turned red.

All the houses and shops in Changle City have now been sold out, and hundreds of millions of taels of silver have been accounted for by the Ministry of Household Affairs!
Li Wenhou was shocked at that time!

After being the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for so many years, this was the second time he saw so much money in the account of the Ministry of Revenue.

The first time was to inspect the property confiscated by Jiangnan officials.

It’s just that the money comes and goes quickly.

Ningguo, which had been corrupted for twenty years, had too many places where money was needed.

Repay all the officials' arrears for these years, replace the weapons and equipment of the Ministry of War, repair the tribute courtyards in various places, build official roads and post stations, repair bridges and roads, etc.

In addition, Li Chenan has reduced and exempted many agricultural taxes, and the commercial tax has not yet seen any effect. With this situation of large expenditures and small expenditures, the Ministry of Household Affairs does not have much savings.

He is in a hurry!

Listening to what Li Chenan said now... he knew what Li Chenan wanted to do, but this old face couldn't admit defeat.

He raised his neck:
"The last time we were able to sell the house in Changle City, it was because the imperial palace was moving to Changle Palace!"

"Could it be that you want to tell the people of Yujing City that the palace will not be moved?"

"Isn't this treating those people like monkeys?"

Li Chenan glared at Li Wenhou again, "Is it possible that other than moving to the palace, I can't fool those rich people?"

"Brain!"

"Use your brain more!"

"The purpose of making money must be engraved in your mind!"

"But you can't be so dull!"

"You must know how to be flexible and understand the needs of those who are rich!"

"You are good at managing accounts and tight. But you are not good at doing business. I guess you will go bankrupt no matter what you do."

Li Wenhou's old face turned red again, thinking to himself, do you have the nerve to say this?

Didn't your pancake and straw cake business in Guangling City close down?

If you were not the emperor, I would expose your scars on the spot!
But he is the emperor!
He can really fight nonsense!

Looking at Li Wenhou's disdainful expression, Li Chenan seemed to have read through his mind.

"Don't you believe I can sell that place for a better price?"

He used the word 'I' at this time, and Wen Boyu felt relieved, knowing that the tense situation between the two of them had disappeared.

"Come on, come on. Sit down and I'll teach you a lesson!"

Li Wenhou was not convinced, but he also wanted to know what he could do.

After all, if Tobe has money, his waist will be stronger.

He sat down.

Li Chenan poured a cup of tea and handed it to him and said:
“It will take at least three years to rebuild that part of the slum.”

"Immigration, taking advantage of the opportunity of building the Huaishan County Wharf, moved everyone to Huaishan County, and that place became vacant."

"Then the place needs to be re-planned. What I want is a brand new city, full of vitality and vitality!" "It will take time to push all the original dilapidated houses to rebuild."

"Three years are enough for the entire Ning State to know about the slum reconstruction."

"Then those houses will be sold not only to people in Kyoto, but to people in the entire Ning Kingdom!"

"That place needs a resounding name, but it can't be called a slum, just... Wenchang New District."

"Open a branch of Taiyuan University there, dig two lakes, build a huge Wenchang Temple in the center, divert jade belt river water into the lake, and create a place where culture and spirit gather!"

"I will personally host a literary party when the time comes!"

"After the students from all over the world recited poems, I selected a few of the best poems, and then wrote dozens of poems to hang in Wenchang Temple, saying that Lord Wenchang Xing had a dream and this place was the hometown of Lord Wenchang before his ascension!"

“It’s true that Wenchang New District is the place with the most culture in the world!”

"During the scientific examination, we will select some outstanding students from the Taiyuan Branch here and put them on the gold list."

"Let them put on red robes, ride on five-flowered horses and wear big red flowers, and parade through the streets with loud gongs and drums, red flags, and fireworks..."

"Are you still worried that no one will buy it?"

"Let me tell you, houses in Wenchang New District can be sold for more expensive than Changle City!"

Li Wenhou and Wen Boyu were stunned when they heard this!

Can it still be done like this?

This, this is clearly cheating by spreading rumors!
But after thinking about it carefully, this method seems to work.

Because what those rich people want is not for their heirs to be named on the gold medal list and to honor their ancestors?

Li Wenhou pondered for three breaths:
"Where did the money come from to build Huaishan County?"

Li Chenan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then raised his eyes and looked at Li Wenhou:

"I remember that before I left Kyoto, it was here that Mr. Luo promised to pay taxes for thirty years!"

"Although he has passed away, he still owes 20 years of tax debt and has not paid it in full! How much should he pay?"

Li Wenhou blurted out:

"There is still a tax payment of 32 million taels!"

"You're wrong!"

Li Wenhou was startled: "I once made the calculation in front of Old Duke Luo!"

"But I remember it should be 320 million taels!"

Li Wenhou and Wen Boiyu's eyes widened, and his mouth swelled ten times!
Is it because there is no evidence to prove it?
But Luo Ye, the eldest son of Duke Luo, must know about such a big event!
Three hundred and twenty million taels of silver...

It’s not far off to sell the entire Duke Luo Mansion!
But Li Chenan said very seriously:

"Don't worry, Luo Mansion has plenty of money!"

"Luo Ye is at home with Ding You, please send someone to tell him."

"I'll give him three months!"

"If the tax of 320 million taels cannot be paid... I will ask the Imperial City Secretary to bring back the heads of all the heirs of his Luo family scattered across the country and place them in front of him!"

"I will do what I say!"

"Come, I'll write you a note. You go to Luo Mansion now."

Li Chenan walked to the dragon case and wrote four words on the paper:

"As if I were here in person!"

He took a small seal from his arms and stamped it, then handed the note to Li Wenhou:

"You go down!"

"The money will arrive within three months!"

Li Wenhou didn't know where Li Chenan got the news, so he stood up and left suspiciously.

When he returned to the Ministry of Finance, he remembered that he had not done anything important——

Ask Li Chenan for the ten million taels of silver!

Now there are more than 300 million in front of him... After hesitating for a moment, he left the Hubu, got on a carriage, left the palace and went straight to Luo Mansion. (End of chapter)
