Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 1835: Gemini worries!

"What? Fan Yang Lu's family and Zhao Jun Li's family also participated in the fundraising meeting?"

Inside the palace, the exclamation of Empress Changsun instantly attracted Li Er's attention, and he couldn't help exclaiming in exclamation.

When he was in Ganludian with Xiao Yu earlier, Li Er saw Lantian County's county government donating 10,000 yuan, and he took advantage of the trend to discuss Lantian County's "Getting Rich Jing", and then he went directly to the harem. , Regarding the last few lines of the account book, he didn't read it carefully, so he didn't know that Lu Chengqing and Li Jingxuan participated in the fundraising meeting!

Listening to Li Er’s question, Empress Changsun pointed to the last two lines of the account book and said: “Yes! It is written on the account book. It is said that each of the Lu family and Zhao Junli’s family donated 30,000 guan, which is really strange. They Didn't these aristocratic families all have their nostrils in the sky before? How can they donate so much money to the court now with such kindness?"

Speaking of the last, Empress Changsun couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Li Erxun's reputation went up, and the last two lines of the account book said impressively: "Fan Yang Lu, donate 30,000 guan! Zhao Jun Li, donate 30,000!"

"Huh! These people are nothing more than grass on the wall! Wherever they are strong, they will naturally stand on which side!"

Li Er frowned and snorted coldly, "It's like making me forget all the things they did before and relax my guard against them. It's a wishful thinking!"

Empress Changsun asked in confusion: "Your Majesty believes that the Lu family and Li family donated money at the fundraising meeting this time because they want to make peace with the court?"

"Make peace?"

Li Er shook his head and said: "It is not so much to make peace, but to temporarily reduce my vigilance against their two great families. In the first battle of the city, the strongest Qinghe Cui, Boring Cui, and Xingyang Zheng three families. After defeating Fuzhu, the Lu family and Zhao Junli family should feel the crisis? But this situation is only temporary. I believe that once the court becomes weak, these two families will immediately turn their faces and restore their original nostrils. A thousand-year-old family who is upturned and invincible!"

Empress Changsun nodded thoughtfully, but then she smiled and said: "Your Majesty said it is reasonable, but no matter what, Zheng and Li donated 60,000 Guans this time, which can alleviate the current situation of the court. They are helping the court to support the army. When Datang returns from the northern expedition to the grassland, the imperial power is in full swing, and I believe that even the Zheng and Li families will not dare to have two hearts at that time, right?"

Hearing this, Li Er pondered for a moment, and then laughed openly: "Haha! What the maidservant Guanyin said is very true, regardless of whether these two families have ghosts or not, but in the end, these sixty thousand sticks are solid, and this is for nothing. Is there any reason for the court not to accept money?"

The couple smiled at each other.

Lu Chengqing and Li Jingxuan, who stayed at the Longmen Inn in Lantian County, didn't know the conversation between Li Er and Empress Changsun, otherwise they would definitely shout "This wave of blood loss" or "Fucked", and then they were extremely depressed!

Although their participation in the fundraising meeting was indeed to gain the court’s favor and let the court relax its vigilance against Lu and Li, but Li Er and Empress Changsun could see through their purpose without any effort, which is not fun. Up!

"Brother Lu, this Lantian County is really different from other places. There are many shops and streets in the city. All the streets are said to be made of cement developed by the Qiquge Workshop. There is also this Longmen Inn, whether it is in Zhao County or Fan Yang, there is no hotel like this majestic style, of course, the most important thing is to live comfortably."

In the guest room on the third floor, Li Jingxuan said with emotion to Lu Chengqing who was sitting beside him.

Everything about the Longmen Inn has subverted the cognition of Li Jingxuan's family. The bright and huge windows, the smooth floor, the porcelain white as jade and the hut without any peculiar smell, and the faucet that can automatically dispense water, all of this Everything, as the eldest son of the Li family of Zhao Jun, Li Jingxuan had never seen it before. At this moment, Li Jingxuan's heart even gave birth to such an absurd feeling: This Longmen Inn is even more comfortable than the one at home!

It is precisely because of this that he will be so emotional.

Hearing this, Lu Chengqing shook his head solemnly, and said, "Jing Xuan, you only saw the surface, but you didn't see the hidden things in Lantian County. This is the real scary place!"

"What does Brother Lu mean?"

Listening to Lu Chengqing's words, Li Jingxuan also put away the smile on his face. He looked serious and asked.

Lu Chengqing was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "As you said, Lantian County is full of shops and streets. If it weren't for Lantian County's county seat is far less than Chang'an City, I am afraid that Lantian County might be more prosperous than Chang'an City! Before we arrived, the county magistrate of Lantian County actually came to the fundraising meeting with ten thousand guan.

Ten thousand sticks, of course, is nothing in your eyes, but for a medium-sized county, I am afraid that ten thousand sticks of tax will not be collected a year! But why can the county government of Lantian County take it out so easily? Jingxuan, do you know the deep meaning? "

Hearing this, Li Jingxuan frowned deeply, and after a moment of pondering, he said solemnly:

"Lantian County is prosperous in commerce. I heard that Lantian County's county government established a commerce department at the beginning of this year to manage commerce in the county and create a good business environment for businessmen. On the other hand, the commerce department has adjusted the business tax ratio. A five-fold increase! Now it's only half a year. Could it be that Lantian County's county government has collected 10,000 business taxes with the help of the Department of Commerce in this half a year?"

Although Li Jingxuan is the eldest son of Zhao Jun Li's family, he is definitely not the elder brothers of the family who do not eat the fireworks. He understands the concept of a county that can collect 10,000 taxes in half a year. This is even ordinary. Achievement that is difficult to achieve in the upper-class counties!

And a year ago, Lantian County was just a small middle-sized county in Datang!

"Maybe it's far more than this ten thousand consistent!"

Lu Chengqing shook his head again and said: "I heard that Lantian County magistrate said when making donations that the landlord Yonganhou does not collect the taxes collected by Lantian County every year. All taxes in Lantian County must be taken from the people. It is used for the people, that is to say, the criss-crossing concrete streets we saw in the city were all built by Lantian County's county government using the taxes collected! This is a lot of cost, Jing Xuan, you know ?"

"What? So, isn't the tax collected by Lantian County in half a year far more than 10,000? Then its tax income for one year..."

Having said that, Li Jingxuan seemed to have thought of something, and he didn't dare to say anything further.

However, Lu Chengqing opened the mouth to help him and said: "In the first year of Lantian County’s establishment of the Department of Commerce, the taxes collected by Lantian County’s county government should be far more than 30,000. Of course, as this trend continues, the second and third years will definitely increase. Because the business environment of Lantian County is getting better and better~www.ltnovel.com~ can also attract more businessmen to do business here! Imagine if there are more than 1,500 counties in Datang, a few more With ten counties like Lantian County, how wealthy the imperial court will be and how stable the imperial power will be. If the aristocratic family wants to shake this high mountain boulder, it will probably be more difficult than climbing!"

Hearing this, Li Jingxuan looked ugly and said: "Among the elders in my clan, many people are still dreaming of losing both to the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. They never thought that today's imperial court has many generals, one is not short of rations, two is not short of armor and equipment, and there are peerless generals such as Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and Yuchi Jingde. Although the Turks are strong, they think It's not easy to make such a powerful Tang court seriously hurt!

Moreover, the elders of the clan only thought about the snipe and the clam fight and the fisherman's profit, but they never thought that if the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks, then Li Shimin's prestige would be as high as the sky, and the Tang court's strength would be prosperous? At that time, our two great families will go to show good to the court again. Will the court that just won the Turkic victory accept our show? "

Lu Chengqing nodded and agreed: "Jing Xuan, you have a reason to say that. There are some elders in our family who lack the sense of worry in their hearts. In their concept, the five surnames and seven hopes are still powerful and unmatched, but they don’t know it. This world has changed! Today, I saw the land of Lantian County, which has undergone earth-shaking changes, and I feel even more that it is a wise move for us to change our route from Qizhou to participate in the fundraising meeting this time!"

Lu Chengqing’s tone revealed helplessness and happiness, but Li Jingxuan sighed in agreement and said, "What Brother Lu said is what the younger brother thinks!"
