Wang Ju looked at Fan Chunren with a smile, which made Fan Chunren feel furious and said, "Taibao, your expression...?"

"Mr. Fan, didn't you say that money is not important?"

Fan Chunren was speechless.

"In fact, the state is right to collect taxes, but this tax should be collected reasonably. I also say that the state will use it higher than the state without taxes."

"Is there such a state?" Zhao Xu asked in surprise.

“Yes, that’s a tax increase.”

Everyone became strange together.

"If the people's annual income is only one-cent money, even if the court only charges 100 cents, the people will feel a heavy burden. If the people's annual income can be 100 cents, even if the court charges 30 cents, the people will still have a surplus. Mr. Fan, do you understand what I mean? The country will only save money, that is just a low-level way of financial management and a way of governing the country. The real superior way of financial management is not the kind of open source that Mr. Jiefu said, but the real open source, and the source is the people. If the people's income increases twice and the tax increases by 20%, it will not be a heavy burden for the people."

"If you want to make the people richer, officials from all over the world need to guide them smartly, but this is very difficult. Besides, many officials are just nerds, not nerds, and are ashamed of making profits. How to lead the people to prosperity? Therefore, there is only the second method, the court directly invested. Just like I used more than 30 million guan of money to overhaul the water conservancy road, although the court spent a lot of money, many people benefited."

"I will say one more thing. In order to compromise, I asked the 30 million passengers to buy their goods from the powerful and powerful as much as possible. However, why is this different this year? All the court's pick-ups will buy them from merchants who paid the Zhuqian, that is, merchants who have no power or power?"

"And in order to prevent the officials from placing and statutory responsibilities, I deliberately asked His Majesty to issue an edict. First, the court estimated the price, and then handed over the quantity of commercial goods to merchants in various states to enter the bidding price, and then purchased it."

"In fact, the reason is very simple. The family law of the ancestors did not allow officials to do business. However, all the scholars and officials and the powerful sent monks to do business. The court prohibited them from doing business, not only doing business, but also not paying taxes. In the past few years, they had to hold on to the implementation of the total commercial tax, otherwise the controversy would be loud and the total commercial tax would not be implemented. Now it is barely implemented, and we must appease those honest merchants. They have no power and power, not only paying commercial tax truthfully, nor do they dare to abuse craftsmen and servants. In fact, these merchants are the merchants that the country really needs. Therefore, they take care of them with policies!"

"If the court can maintain this idea and develop, more people will become rich by hard work and wisdom. The national tax will also increase and generate more surpluses, especially in the northwest affairs, the surplus will be an astonishing number. Then the country can extract these surpluses to govern the Yellow River, and it is a recruiting river management project. After the Yellow River River construction is completed, there will be Qiantang River, Huaihe River, and Jiangdongwei. It can also build projects within the capital dam in the southwest, and more and more people will become richer. Benevolent tax increases and benign state expenditures will continue to circulate. The higher the water rises, the higher the ship, the greater the Song Dynasty can become."

"Is it wrong to restrain the severity of the severity?" Li Qingchen said in surprise.

"The light and low taxation depends on where it is used. If it is a first-class household, can it be used to light and low taxation? Why is the conflict between me and Duke Wen intensified? It is the conflict of this concept in his mind. No matter how much treatment is received by the powerful and literati, they must not be levied at all. So what should the state spending be done? Reducing money! Can saving money solve the problem? Duke Li doesn't believe that the country will reduce taxes by half, and the extremely poor are still extremely poor, but a small group of rich people will become richer, that is, the two ends are small, the one end is large, the country is poor, the people are poor, and the powerful are super rich. Do you think such a country can last long?"

"Okay, I'm not in the court, and I'm not in the position, so I won't do anything about it. This has nothing to do with me, but I'll talk about this financial solution..." Wang Ju said his method again. At present, only Zhao Xu and Cai Que knew, and the other prime ministers were not clear.

Wang Ju warned again and again.

It is a good plan, but now everyone's economic theory is immature. If the tyrant ruler is in power and use this method, there will be endless troubles.

"This is a wonderful plan," Li Qingchen murmured.

"It is not a clever strategy. It can be implemented first, with the banking department, second, under normal circumstances, the country generates a large amount of surplus every year. Without this premise, this strategy must not be implemented. Third, I have too high requirements and want to stabilize the northwest all at once. Otherwise, like the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is enough to conquer, not to migrate the people, and not improve the local conditions, and there will be no more expenses. However, why use troops in that way."

The financial problems have been solved.

Wang Ju was then invited by Shen Kuo. In fact, Shen Kuo's director had no problem in the Ministry of Works. However, because of Shen Kuo's character and his performance in the Battle of Yongle City, many scholars and officials discriminated against him, and even believed that Wang Ju was nepotism, that is, Shen Kuo flattered him.

Therefore, Shen Kuo was more attentive to the motorcycle. If it succeeded, then Shen Kuo could be justified in the position of Minister of Works.

So Wang Ju returned to the capital, and Shen Kuo came to him with all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases to ask Wang Ju for advice.

Seeing this result, Wang Ju was quite ridiculous.

He suddenly thought of another person. Newton once said, "If I see further than others, it is because I stand on the shoulders of a giant."

This sentence has been repeatedly quoted by later generations, and the actual truth is not what later generations promote.

When Newton was elected as a member of the Royal Society of England, he had a conflict with his predecessor Robert Hooker. Later, the conflict deepened. Newton wrote a letter to Hooker maliciously, in which he said: Descartes's optical research has taken a good step, and you have advanced many aspects of development. If I look further, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants.

It seems that this sentence is very humble.

But this giant was the greatest insult to mockery on Hook, because Hook himself was not tall and had a hunchback, which was similar to a short and ugly scientist who was a dwarf.

So this sentence should be answered in this way. We are standing on the shoulders of you, a clown, what should you do?

Not only that, after Newton was elected as president of the Royal Society, he ruthlessly banned Hook, and even Hook's portrait was "lost".

Of course, this cannot deny Newton's greatness. Shen Kuo is the same now. If he cannot succeed, it will be the same, or he will talk about it in the future. However, being completely covered up by the glory of his own works, future generations will inevitably repeatedly comment on Shen Kuo's bad things. If he succeeds, then a handsome man can cover up a hundred ugliness and become a great scientist.

"Who are you!" a big man shouted fiercely.

"This hero, I took Dalang from my boss out for a walk. I happened to see the Lang playing at the door. When Dalang saw him cute, he asked him what he wanted. The Lang's wish was to eat the sweet cakes in Dongbiao alley. Dalang had asked someone to buy them for him. There was no other malice. If you don't believe it, just stand here and watch." Wang Ju explained patiently.

After a while, a civilian guard bought a large box of sweet cakes and handed them to the man's son.

The big man stared at them with an idiot-looking look. Wang Ju ignored it and said, "Let's go further."

A group of children spread out and walked a while ago, and there was a group of children playing football.

"Your Highness, ask them again for their wishes."

"Okay," Zhao Zheng absolutely believed it.

The scattered guards were inexplicably clear. Did Taibao want His Highness to know how hard the lives of ordinary people are, and that their children's wishes are so small?

Zhao Jiao walked over with great strides. Although some of these children were two or three years older than him, he was not afraid. Wang Ju thought with relief, there was a little bit of a turtle.

Zhao Jiao stretched out his hand and hugged the ball. A big boy asked, "Who are you?"

"Everyone, my teacher gave me a question today, which is to satisfy the wishes in the hearts of some teenagers who are similar to my age."

"Don't make trouble," said another big boy.

"It's true, don't believe it, start with you."

The big boy looked at Wang Ju behind Zhui Zhao, and there were two guards. The others scattered, and it was not something this big boy could observe.

Wang Ju and the two guards were smiling. From beginning to end, they didn't interrupt, but Wang Ju gave Zhao's almost unreasonable topic, and Zhao's performance has always been perfect.

"Okay, I just believe in you, I want a new Ju."

Ju is a leather ball, but it is slightly different from later generations. That is, although the outside is also leather, it is not hollow inside, but solid leather balls stuffed with rice bran.

"Wait," Zhao Xuan gestured to a guard. The guard walked towards the alley. Not far away, there was a highway outside. There were many residences on both sides of the avenue, so he bought a new Ju and handed it to the big boy.

This action made the group of people stunned. Zhui Zhao continued to ask another boy: "What is your wish?"

"I want a pair of shoes, can you do it?"

That is, sneakers, cowhide, coated with tung oil to prevent it from being soaked in water, and iron nails are not slippery, so it turns out that Wang Ju was extremely surprised when he saw it for the first time.

But it is also very expensive, much more expensive than a ball.

"It can be realized," Zhao Zhui did not instruct the guards to buy it immediately, but instead broke a branch, wrote it down on the snow, and asked the second boy again.

The guard beside Wang Ju said, "Your Highness is so talented."

Wang Ju nodded. Anyway, Wang Ju felt much smarter than his son, but...

However, Zhao's health will be healthy in the future and can ensure that the Song Dynasty will be stable for decades. That's all.

These children made all kinds of weird wishes, and there was also a little girl who wanted a new piece of clothing, but they were all easy to realize.

The big boy who finally started made a difficult wish. He looked at Master Zhao and said, "I want to be a general. Can you realize it for me?"

The guard opened his mouth wide and thought to himself that this little guy has a pretty big appetite.

Wang Ju smiled and thought to ask well, but someone finally asked.

Zhao was stunned and turned his head to look at Wang Ju. Wang Ju said, "Don't look at me, think about it slowly."

Zhao Zhong was thinking in his heart, what does Taibao mean? He thought for a while and said, "It is difficult to be a general. You must be proficient in martial arts."

“I can practice martial arts.”

"Then who are you practicing? Without a good teacher, you can't practice it yourself, and you can't practice good martial arts."

"this……"

"Not only martial arts, but also good martial arts, you can only be an instructor. If you want to be a general, you must also be proficient in military books and battle strategies. Who will you learn from?"

"Isn't this what you said? Do you want to realize this wish for me?" The big boy couldn't answer and said in a cunning way.

"This wish is too difficult. What's your name?"

"You help me realize it, I will tell you the name."

The interesting conversation between these two teenagers attracted many passers-by, but everyone just found it interesting. They even thought it was the playboy who was taking the family's servants to make trouble, but they didn't care.

"I don't know what kind of military position you mean by the general, but military position is an official position. This is a national important weapon and must not be given randomly. In this way, I can give you a chance to realize your willingness, but whether it can be achieved depends on your own efforts. Are you willing to work hard?"

"I'm willing. But if I work hard, can I become a general?"

"As long as you work hard, I will give you another chance, and you will be able to get closer to this willingness. But if you want to truly realize it, you must also fight bravely on the battlefield when you grow up."

"I do, but what chance do you give me?"

Zhao Maid turned his head and looked at Wang Ju, but shook his head quickly. Wang Ju is too insurance, it is impossible, and Wang Ju may leave the next year, even more impossible. So he looked at the guard Pang Yaobin next to Wang Ju. Pang Yaobin is not only a guard but also a guard. He also likes to study. He must be a big gap with Wang Ju, but how big the gap is. It is not something Zhao Maid can know now, but Pang Yaobin is enough, so Zhao Maid asked: "Pang Du... Yaobin, are you willing to teach him in the future?"

"See Dalang's orders."

Zhao Zheng turned his head and said to the young man: "What's your name? Where are you living? Looking back, I asked Pang Yaobin to teach you martial arts and military techniques, but if you want to realize your wish, the first step is to work hard by yourself. If you are still like today, Cuju every day, even if someone teaches you, it will not be possible to realize your wish."

"Who is he?"

Wang Ju said: "He is the head of the imperial guards, so it's enough to teach you."

Then he looked at Zhao Zhui and said, "Dalang, you did a good job, but do you know why I asked you to do this?"

"Teacher, I don't know."

"You can regard this wish as a dream. If this dream is just a piece of sweet cake, a new Ju, a pair of Ju shoes, and a new clothes, it is easy to realize, but this dream is a great general, it is difficult to realize. First, you need to have opportunities, second, you need to work hard, ten times more than ordinary people, third, you must dare to fight bloody battles with the enemy, fourth, you must have talent, so that you can stand out from hundreds of thousands of imperial guards and become a famous general. This is just a general, if this dream..."

After hearing this, the people around finally realized something was wrong. These are all great principles, and they are very profound great principles.

But at this time, Wang Ju lowered his voice and said in Zhao Zhui's ear in a very small voice: "Your Highness, this dream is to create a powerful country in the future. It would be so difficult to make billions of people live and work in peace and make the enemy country scared. Just like your father, he worked diligently all his life, but he has not yet won the Western Xia and is still afraid of the Khitan. Your Highness, do you understand what I mean?"
