Molested Zulong at the beginning

Apparently...

Under the seemingly calm water surface, there is already an undercurrent surging.

......

......

in the courtyard.

Fusu changed into a plain white skirt and sat on the corridor, holding a wine cup in her hand, staring straight at the cherry blossoms falling in the courtyard, wondering what she was thinking.

"Da da da."

At this time, there was a sound of boots stepping on the wooden corridor.

Fu Sushun looked around, only to see a young man in white robes walking towards him.

With a face like a crown jade, eyes like stars, and a handsome scholarly appearance, she couldn't help but look stunned, and couldn't help sighing in her heart, what a skin.

But when he thought of what this guy had done just now, a sliver of goodwill surged up in his heart, and it disappeared instantly, turning into raging anger.

Facing Fusu's sharp gaze, Bai Su couldn't help laughing, and changed the subject: "Then...that Your Highness, I wonder what happened to you in business?"

When Fu Su heard about the business, he temporarily let go of the shame and anger in his heart.

After pondering for a moment, she said, "It's like this. Since Xianyang and the Six Kingdoms, Beiting Protectorate, Yuezhi Kingdom and trade, the caravans coming and going have become more frequent, and the tax revenue has also increased month by month."

"However, problems have emerged one after another. For example, the same cart of leather pulled from the grassland. Some businessmen were lucky and met high-ranking officials and nobles. They sold it at a high price and made a lot of money, while others encountered profiteers and were suppressed. Lost a lot of money."

"Because the price is unstable, it is difficult for the government to set a standard price if it wants to collect taxes."

"If the tax is collected according to the amount of a cart of goods, it is convenient for some early merchants, because they are familiar with the local conditions and can sell at higher and more stable prices."

"A mere tax is nothing to them."

"However, many newcomers don't know much about the local conditions. If the tax is too high, they can't find suitable people, and the selling price is low, and they will definitely lose money easily."

"The situation is chaotic. It is very unfavorable to the government's tax policy. It is easy for a few people to take advantage of the loopholes. I wonder how you can solve this problem?"

Bai Su rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment and said, "Yes."

Fu Su was taken aback for a moment, and said suspiciously: "You must not be lying to me."

"I'm daytime, ahem...I never lie."

Bai Su glanced at the full moon in the night sky, paused, and hastily changed his words.

Fu Su's face was full of suspicion: "..."

Bai Su coughed lightly, and said: "Trade between the two places has been opened, but the price of the transaction is unstable, and various problems are prone to occur. It is actually not difficult to solve it, as long as... the imperial court comes forward and builds a channel. "

Fu Su was stunned: "Channel?"

Bai Su nodded and said, "To put it simply, it is to build a trading city where both buyers and sellers can trade. In this way, the prices of goods will stabilize and transactions will be much more convenient."

"It won't happen. I don't know how much leather merchants have shipped this time, causing misjudgments and frequent price fluctuations. With a stable trading place, it will be more convenient for the government to formulate policies and collect taxes..."

"..."

Fusu listened to his eloquent narration, in the black and white eyes, from suspicion at the beginning, to surprise, to admiration at the end.

At this moment, she finally knew why her mother admired Bai Su so much, he was indeed a great talent.

You know, she has been struggling with this problem for a long time, and she doesn't know where to start.

But in just a moment, Bai Su sorted out the context and analyzed it in an orderly manner, which made people enlightened and enlightened when they heard it.

No matter how much she hated Bai Su, an impolite person, the confidence on this man's face and his talent for solving problems easily while talking with a smile made her unable to hate him at all.

Chapter 140 Three

"With a stable trading place, convenient transportation, and stable prices, it is naturally easier to collect taxes..."

After Bai Su finished speaking the last sentence, his mouth felt a little parched, he poured himself a glass of wine, and poured it down "gudong gudong".

I had been soaking in the soup spring for so long before, and I didn't dare to move, and my whole body felt stuffy.

The clear wine flowed down his throat, and the cool feeling spread out in his internal organs. Feeling the cool night wind blowing in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little bit refreshed.

Fusu held the wine cup in her slender hands and gently placed it on her knees. With black and white eyes, she looked at the starry sky in the distance.

After pondering for a long time, she said: "It is indeed a good proposal for the government to build a trading city as a channel merchant for easy management and control, but I want to build a trading place that can support caravans from all over the world."

"The money that needs to be spent in this is probably not a small amount."

"Such a large-scale construction project is probably not a small burden for the imperial court, which has just rescued the disaster and the treasury is not very abundant."

After hearing her worry, Bai Su put down the wine cup in his hand.

He smiled and said: "This is not a useless spectacle, but a cash cow that can continuously bring benefits. Looking around the world, there is nothing more profitable than being a middleman."

"If they want to enter the city of trade and conduct transactions, they need to buy a ticket. This alone is enough to provide the court with a considerable income."

"And as trade continues to expand, a positive cycle will gradually form, such as..."

"The high-ranking officials and nobles in Guanzhong will spend extravagantly to buy high-end spices from the Western Regions and rouge from the grasslands."

"On the grasslands, nobles and wealthy merchants in the Western Regions will buy silk and lacquerware from the Central Plains one after another."

"The wealth they have accumulated will flow out through a series of transactions, which will not only stabilize the government and the opposition, but also make the national treasury more and more abundant. It can be said to have the best of both worlds."

After hearing Bai Su's plan, Fu Su's black and white eyes suddenly lit up.

This is really a good strategy.

After the Great Xia unified the world, it actually faced many hidden dangers. The biggest external threat was the survivors of the Six Kingdoms.

The biggest internal threat is the courtiers in the court.

It's not that Wang Jian and Li Si, the important officials in the court, have any thoughts on the imperial power. In front of the mother, no one dares to raise an eyebrow.

However, having no idea does not mean that there is no threat to the imperial power.

Because the imperial court rewards meritorious service, those who have made great achievements often have land, houses, and countless money.

These people have a lot of wealth, but they don't spend much. As time goes by, the land and money they own will only increase, and their influence among the people will become stronger and stronger.

Sooner or later, the monarch will face the point where there is no reward.

At that time, there will be a bloody contest between the royal power and the noble group.

And Bai Su held the channel in his hands, and used spices, silk, and other extravagant things to let the nobles and wealthy merchants of the grassland, Yuezhi, and Central Plains willingly be cut off from leeks.

Soldied without bloodshed, Guanzhong nobles, rich merchants are growing stronger, but can not limit the problem, and also provided a large amount of tax revenue for the court.

This strategy is really wonderful.

Fu Su raised his head, and looked at Bai Su with a surprised expression, "Your way, you have the demeanor of Qi Xiang Guan Zhong in the past."

Bai Su rubbed his nose, and said: "I just reminded him a little bit, and His Highness will understand immediately. Compared with Guan Zhong's confidant Bao Shuya, he is no different. We are also Guan Baozhi's friend."

Fu Su spat lightly, her slender black eyebrows were frowned: "Who will make friends with you, an impolite fellow, Guan Bao?"

Bai Su murmured in a low voice: "Didn't you just take care of Baozhi's friendship, no... To be precise, it should be called "clamping guns and making sticks". I remember at that time..."

"What are you muttering about?"

Fu Su looked at Bai Su who was rubbing his chin and muttering in his mouth, and his slender black eyebrows couldn't help but raised.

For some reason, an inexplicable killing intent suddenly surged in her heart, an urge to kick the guy in front of her to death.

Seeing her unkind expression, Bai Su hastily coughed lightly: "Ahem, it's nothing, but I don't know if this method will satisfy His Highness."

Fu Su pondered for a while, and said: "Your method is really good. Firstly, it can solve the troubles of the court, and secondly, it can benefit the court. It is really ingenious, but...it costs a lot."

As the current emperor's daughter, she has participated in many projects, and she clearly knows how much it will cost if she wants to build a large-scale construction project. Without a million dollars, she can't afford it.

Bai Su said with a smile: "Then...then if I have a way to let Your Highness build this trading city without spending a penny, I wonder if Your Highness will forgive me?"

Fu Su was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Could it be that you want to contribute?"

Bai Su shook his head: "How can I spend so much money?"

After all, he is only interested in beauty, and not very interested in money.

Therefore, even though the official position is not low now, the family does not have much land or money.

If people who don't know this look at it, I'm afraid they will think that he is a clean and honest official.

Fu Su's face became more puzzled: "Then you have no money, why did you just say that I can build this trading city without spending a penny?"

Bai Su smiled, and said: "Believe it or not, Your Highness, I only need a letter, and all the merchants in Guanzhong can line up to send money to Your Highness's residence."

Fu Su looked at Bai Su suspiciously: "How is this possible, those businessmen are not stupid, how could they do such a thing, you are not going to do something wrong again, plot against others."

She knows Bai Su too well. This man talks nicely, but in fact he doesn't do anything.

Previously, in order to avoid her mother's gaze, she suffered a great loss from this man, and was almost wiped out.

It's not that easy to take advantage of this bad-mouthed man.

Bai Su rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "Why am I that kind of person? I don't need anything, just a pen and a piece of paper, and this group of people can come and give money to His Highness."

"We still have to scramble to give money to His Highness. If you don't send money to His Highness, they won't be happy. Do you believe it?"

Fu Su shook his head: "I don't believe it, this is impossible."

She raised her big eyes to look at Bai Su, a trace of suspicion flashed in her black and white eyes.

Bai Su said with a smile: "Then let's make a bet, how about?"

Hearing this, Fu Su took a few steps back, put his arms around his chest, and looked at Bai Su vigilantly: "What do you want to bet?"

Bai Su rubbed his nose: "Why look at me like a villain, I don't mean anything malicious, if I do it, His Highness will forgive me for my previous disrespect, and spare my life."

"If His Highness wins, then I am willing to work for His Highness and let His Highness drive him until His Highness eliminates the resentment in his heart, how about it?"

Fu Su looked at Bai Su suspiciously: "Then you are at a disadvantage?"

Bai Su scratched his cheek, and said helplessly: "After all, I was the one who wronged His Highness. As compensation, it's normal for me to suffer some losses. I wonder if Your Highness is willing to make a bet?"

Fu Suhao bit her lower lip lightly, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Okay, I promise you, if you lose, I will order you topless| topless, and perform the salute of leading the sheep on the streets of Xianyang .”

This is an extremely humiliating humiliation. In the past, when the small country was on the verge of subjugation, the monarch used such a humiliating gift to beg the enemy country for forgiveness.

It can be said that it is an act of stepping on face, identity, and dignity.

Bai Su had a strange expression on his face, and he didn't hesitate too much.

He picked up the wine cup and bowed to Fu Su: "Well, it's simple, then it's such a happy decision, a gentleman..."

"It's hard to catch a horse..."

Fu Su also picked up the wine cup and collided with it.

Under the moonlight, the cherry blossoms in the courtyard are falling with the wind.

The eyes of the two reflected each other's cheeks.

Fusu's face was full of suspicion, she didn't believe that Bai Su could make countless profiteers send money one after another with just one letter.

And Bai Su is the first time to seriously look at Fu Su in front of him.

I remember the last time we parted, she once said that the flower path has never been swept by guests, and the Pengmen is now opened for you.

I didn't expect to actually do it now, which is really unexpected.

Chapter 140 Four Are These People Crazy?

The next day.

Bai Su was sitting on the quiet corridor, holding a cup of sour plum soup in his hand, drinking it leisurely.

Fu Su walked in quickly, looking at Bai Su's leisurely look, she couldn't help frowning and said, "I have sent letters to the merchants in Guanzhong according to your instructions, and they are almost here. What can I get them to take the initiative to hand over their money?"

Bai Su smiled, and took out a set of scrolls from his side: "Of course it depends on this."

"This is...the design of the trading city?"

Fu Su glanced at the contents of the painting, and frowned delicately: "Now there is no shadow of this trading city, how can you get millions of money just by relying on a sketch?"

Bai Su said with a smile on his face: "Ben's people use their own money to do other people's affairs. Really smart people use other people's money to do their own affairs. Don't look at me. I only have a small piece of paper in my hand." blueprint, but this thing can easily be exchanged for countless money."

Fu Su twitched her lips: "Bragging."
