Chapter 1155 Gossip
Gu Yun, who was in the Imperial Academy, was naturally the first to hear about the various movements of the imperial court. King Yu's family moved to the fiefdom of Yuzhou, and his second grandfather, second-rank general Gu Xiaoyu, also returned to Beijing from Yuzhou. One came back from there, and the other To go there, Gu Yun rubbed his chin, his eyes flashed with thought.

As for the newly allocated General's Mansion, Gu Yun doesn't care about it, it's something his parents have to clean up, but he will prepare additional money, and it happens to be rebuilt along with Duke Ye's mansion, so he will honor his grandfather as a grandson .

As for his money, it's all in Bai Kou's house. This most important property has already been sent to Bai Kou's hands immediately. Now that he has a wife, naturally the wife is in charge of the money and accounts.

Gu Yun's eyes rolled, his brows were beaming with joy, he found the palace chief and asked him to bring a message back, he will stay at Bai Kou's house tonight, and tomorrow he will send a sum of money home to help rebuild the general's mansion, the two mansions will start construction together Well, maybe Second Grandpa arrived in Beijing just in time for the wedding.

Gong Zhangji gave Gu Yun a look of contempt, and reminded him to take it easy with the gesture of an elder, don't be impulsive when seeing a little boy, he dropped this joke, got in his carriage and went home.

Gu Yun was teased by Gong Changji, got into his carriage with a straight face, and sat in the carriage secretly laughing.

Bai Kou didn't have the fast channel of Gu Yun's news to the court, so she didn't know what happened in the court today, but only knew that the people and workers in the workshop were still laughing at the magistrate of Prince Yu's mansion for being self-effacing and shameless , when she returned home from the factory, she stepped into the upper room, and saw Gu Yun's smiling face, she was gently pulled into his arms by him in a daze, the warm breath approached, and the two lips were soft. fit.

Gu Yun didn't dare to get too excited, and let go of Bai Kou after a little taste.

"How did you come?"

"I'm coming to live here." Gu Yun took it for granted, "The Zhongming Courtyard is in a mess now, it's annoying to see, it's only been a few years since I moved from the Wenling Courtyard to the Zhongming Courtyard, and I've accumulated such a pile of sundries."

"Oh, the guest room is ready for you." Bai Kou pushed Gu Yun away and turned around to go to her bedroom.

"You are reluctant to let me sleep in the guest room."

Gu Yun came back one step earlier than Bai Kou. He had seen the cloakroom, and the clothes he had sent were all stored in it, so he caught up with Bai Kou and held her hand with a proud face.

"Hmph, you're the only one who is smart~" Bai Kou gave Gu Yun a blank look, and the two entered the bedroom side by side, "When did you come back? Did you take off your official uniform?"

"Just one step ahead of you."

Gu Yun helped Bai Kou take off his coat and hung it on the hanger, and Bai Kou also turned around and took off his official uniform for Gu Yun, and put on indoor slippers. The two of them rolled their sleeves and walked towards the bathroom sink, talking and laughing. .

After washing hands, changing clothes, and tidying up, the two of them sat on the stool at the end of the bed in the bedroom, drank tea, and waited for dinner later.

Gu Yun hugged Bai Kou in his arms, and told her two latest news related to both of them.

"King Yu went to fief Yuzhou, and old general Gu returned to Beijing from Yuzhou?" Bai Kou raised his eyebrows, "This arrangement seems quite interesting."

"Yes, yes, many people who heard these two pieces of news said so."

"Where is Yuzhou? Is it the border? Isn't the place where the second-rank general with great military exploits is stationed?"

"Well, the very important frontier, of course the environment is not good, otherwise why would you put a second-rank general there, right? He was almost 70 years old before he was dismissed and returned to the field."

"Where is King Yu's fief?"

"This kind of place can earn military merits. Saints have always held military power. Otherwise, how could it be so easy for you to negotiate business with the Ministry of War? Saints were also moved by your proposal, and your achievements over the past few years have also made Chong Nong Pai gradually shut up."

"Physiocrats? Please speak clearly."

The corners of Bai Kou's mouth twitched. She knew that she had always been weak in politics, and no one would discuss politics with women, but the situation was different now. If she turned black on politics again, she would not do business.

"Emphasis on agriculture and suppressing business and equal emphasis on agriculture and business are two factions that can fight to the death."

"Understood, it's like salty party and sweet party, first tea party and first milk party among milk tea lovers."

"There are factions in milk tea?"

"Yes, first boil the tea and then put the milk, first boil the milk and then put the tea, quote the scriptures, and they all say that they are the authentic milk tea."

"Oh, hehehe, there are fights everywhere."

"Who says it's not, but in comparison, the two factions in the court are more high-end." Bai Kou rolled his eyes, "It's impossible for the emphasis on agriculture to keep silent. Has no one said that a thousand acres of land on a farm can feed so many people, but the grain output is so little?"

"Yes, of course there is, but it was blocked by people from our agricultural business and re-dispatch."

"How did it get blocked?"

"Ask them directly. With the current farmers' taxes, ask them to advise how many acres of land a family needs to plant to pay taxes and eat. They are still competing with us to attach the tax. The apportionment is not a tax. Farmers The tax burden is not heavy, but I can’t explain why people have to pay it since it’s not a tax.” Gu Yun giggled after several confrontations, “There was another time when he directly reached out to them to buy high-quality, high-yielding grain seeds. Isn't it the school that emphasizes agriculture and suppresses business? Then they should have invested heavily in farming and get rich returns to have such a proposition, right? Then set up a farming cooperation. As a result, the faces of those people turned into pigs Liver color, now I seldom come to us and feel unhappy, and I dare not come, the tax paid by the factory is too shocking, this year it has paid more than 1 taels."

"Of course, when did the cowhide I blown break?" Bai Kou patted his chest proudly.

"Yes, you are the best~"

Gu Yun moved slightly, and lightly pecked Bai Kou's lips, causing her to giggle a few times. With her smile, Gu Yun couldn't help it, and held her face to deepen the kiss.

"The emphasis on agriculture and the agriculture and business will be the two opinion factions that will exist for a long time. We will rely on our daughter-in-law for both agriculture and business."

"In the end, our faction must win. With so much investment in farming, how can we promote the progress of farming without money? Where does the money come from? Does it have to be earned by industry and commerce? Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and industry and commerce feed back to agriculture. Complementing each other is a positive cycle. Emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business, even the basic expenditure of the national treasury cannot be met, and in the end it is the fate of the dynasty."

"Dynasty Fate, yes, our faction must win in the end, it must win."

"Of course you have to win. The only way to get rid of the fate of the dynasty is the common prosperity of the whole people. This depends on your younger generation of officials. The old people are timid and just want to be conservative. They don't have the heart to forge ahead."

"Well, leave it to us!" Gu Yun nodded vigorously, also full of pride.

"By the way, the old general is coming back, where does he live?"

"The imperial court set aside a general's mansion. By the way, I still need to use a sum of money to build the general's mansion for my family. It can be regarded as my filial piety to my grandfather."

"Well, it should be. After leaving Beijing for so many years to fight around, I made the house more comfortable, and the old man lived happily."

"Hmm~"

Gu Yun didn't listen carefully to what Bai Kou was saying at all, he just saw her rosy mouth move, his heart was itching to death, he couldn't help lowering his head again, stuffing what Bai Kou wanted to say back into his stomach.

How can a beautiful day be wasted on chatting?
