The farmer has a mall

Chapter 546 Bargaining
Li Mi did have the idea of ​​letting Gu Nanyan manage one more city.

Mingshan City is becoming more and more prosperous, more than a hundred times more prosperous than before.

Naturally, there are a lot of taxes, although he can only receive [-]%.

However, judging from the current situation, if the company continues to develop, the [-]% tax revenue should be very considerable.

So Li Mi came up with the idea of ​​letting her manage the two cities more.

But he didn't dare to give it to her directly, so he could only give it to his younger brother with the help of Prince Feng's will.

But the younger brother is not strong enough to help himself and his daughter-in-law.

Li Mi talked for a long time, and his mouth was dry, but his younger brother still refused.

It is typical to have a daughter-in-law and forget your brother.

He simply changed his strategy and talked about the strange things that happened in Juncheng.

"I heard that there is a tiankeng in the north of the Juncheng, which has a history of hundreds of years. There is black water in the tiankeng, which burns instantly when touched by fire. The local people use it to make fire. If it is used as lamp oil, it can burn for several days. Curiosity."

While speaking, Li Mi paid attention to Gu Nanyan's reaction.

Sure enough, when he mentioned the black water, the hijab shook slightly.

Li Mi felt complacent.

He already knew that Gu Nanyan's steam car used black water, and she was asking about it everywhere.

However, for some unknown reason, there has been no news.

The matter of Heishui in Juncheng was also discovered by accident because some local people who were not afraid of death fell into the tiankeng.

Of course Gu Nanyan knew that Li Mi told her on purpose.

She didn't think she had to take over the whole city if she wanted the black water.

But since Li Mi said so, he must have made preparations for her to accept it.

really……

"If such a strange thing is used properly, it will benefit the people's livelihood."

Enough foreshadowing, Li Mi grinned and got straight to the point.

"Therefore, I have ordered the government to surround the pit that day and prepare to take it back to the imperial court. Without the imperial court's permission, it is not allowed to mine without permission."

"Unless this person is the lord of this city." Finally speaking of his ultimate goal, Li Mi secretly glanced at Gu Nanyan, but her head was covered with a red cloth, so she couldn't see her expression clearly.

But if he didn't rush up, he shouldn't be beaten.

Li Mi's tense nerves relaxed, and he secretly let out a breath.

Gu Nanyan: "..."

The god damn emperor is playing tricks on her!

Will she be fooled?

Take over the whole city just to get some oil, think of her as an idiot!

"Oh, by the way, I heard that the black water seems to be running water. No matter how much water is taken out, it will be full again the next day. It seems that there is a lot of water."

"Husband, since the emperor has good intentions, you should agree. Anyway, it is next to Mingshan City, so it is easy to take care of it." Gu Nanyan tugged at Li Yi's sleeve and said.

Everyone: "..."

After watching the play for a long time, they finally understood.

The Emperor of Emotion talked for a long time, just to lure the princess to take over Juncheng with Nashi Laozi Black Water.

Although everyone didn't know what Black Water was, it was a good thing that the princess was willing to take over Juncheng, and it was also good for them to have a larger treasury, so no one objected.

Li Yi was dumbfounded.

It's not because of Gu Nanyan's capricious decision, but because of her "husband".

Gu Nanyan waited for a long while but still didn't see him making a sound, so he couldn't help but lift his hijab and look at the people around him.

But he saw him smirking foolishly at his forehead.

Gu Nanyan: "..."

……

Although Gu Nanyan agreed to let Li Yi take over the fiefdom, he didn't want Li Mi to achieve his goal so easily, and bargaining was necessary.

So a good worship ceremony suddenly became a venue for the two big bosses to bargain, and almost missed the auspicious time.

In the end, with Li Yi's assistance, the [-]% of Juncheng's annual tax payment was reduced to [-]%.

Satisfied, Li Yi hugged his daughter-in-law to pray to heaven and earth, and entered the bridal chamber.

Leaving Li Mi jumping around on the spot, complaining to the queen about his brother forgetting about sex.

The queen resisted the urge to roll her eyes, smiled dignifiedly, and said nothing.

Concubine Cui Gui didn't have so many scruples, she twirled a piece of jujube cake and it was delicious.

"Prince Cheng loves his daughter-in-law. The city has been developed so hard. The emperor wants to share half of the tax for nothing. What's the reason for that?" Concubine Cui said contemptuously.

After saying that, he swallowed the pastry in his mouth, and picked up another piece with a lot of interest.

The queen swallowed her saliva when she saw it, and couldn't help asking her to ask for two yuan. She bit it down, and the sour taste filled her lips and teeth in an instant.

Li Mi looked at his teeth sorely: "This is the rule set by the ancestors. Which prince with a fief in history did not pay taxes? That would not be an emperor!"

And does that girl lack that little tax?
The annual income of her garage alone is much higher than the tax!
He can see but can't eat, and he is just envious.

"Besides, I don't collect taxes and spend them myself. All of them have to go into the national treasury and be used for the people."

If it weren't for the fact that the national treasury was empty every year, he didn't want to worry about it with that girl, it would hurt his feelings.

"Now that there is no war, the treasury has not enough money?" Concubine Cui Gui didn't pay attention to state affairs, so naturally she didn't know about the lack of money in the treasury.

"There's never enough time." Li Mi looked at the courtiers below and couldn't help but sarcastically smiled.

These officials, except for a few fair and honest ones, none of them are not corrupt.

When there is war, be less greedy, and when there is no war, be more greedy. In short, there will be no surplus food every year.

The two brothers Li Mi and Li Yi are determined to rectify the situation, but now is the time when the imperial court is recuperating, it is not the time yet.

Li Mi sighed, seeing how delicious the Queen's food was, he couldn't help but also picked up a piece of jujube cake and took a bite, which almost made his teeth sour.

He threw down the jujube cake, took the handkerchief handed over by Eunuch Zhao, wiped his hands, squinted his eyes and said, "Wait a little longer, when the situation stabilizes..."

I will settle accounts with these people again!

……

Sheng Wangfu's new house.

All the servants were sent out, even Yun Xi was not there.

Gu Nanyan sat on the side of the bed, and Li Yi and Li Yi each held a glass of wine, approached slowly, and the two of them crossed their arms together, and drank the Hebei wine.

Li Yi's eyes were burning like torches, and he stared straight at Gu Nanyan, as if he was looking at a rare treasure, he couldn't move his eyes away.

Gu Nanyan felt a little uncomfortable being watched by him, moved his buttocks, and raised his hand to take off the phoenix crown on his head.

"I'll come." Li Yi said softly.

Then he put the wine glass back on the tray and got up to take off her headdress.

Gu Nanyan put down his hands upon hearing this, and sat there quietly.

The distance between the two was so close that she could clearly smell the refreshing scent of soap locust on Li Yi's body.

The scent mixed with body temperature made her dizzy.

"Should you go out?" Gu Nanyan tried to divert his attention.

"Well, there's no rush." ​​Li Yi's voice was exceptionally soft and magnetic, like cotton wool falling down, making one's heart warm.

"Li... Brother Huang is still waiting, you go out to toast the bar first, this thing is not easy to remove, I will ask Yunxi to help me remove it later." Gu Nanyan originally wanted to call Li Mi's name, but changed his words after thinking about it.

Li Yi heard it, and the corner of his mouth curled up, his expression became more gentle.

"Not urgent."

Still those two words, the same temperature, but even more exciting.

Gu Nanyan pursed her lips, feeling a little uncomfortable with this strange feeling, but she didn't urge her anymore.

The phoenix crown was indeed difficult to remove, the two of them struggled for a long time, and by the time they took it off, their clothes were already soaked with sweat.

Li Yi sighed softly, God knows what kind of perseverance he used to prevent him from pulling her into his arms when facing the person he was thinking of.

Feeling that the temperature in the room was a bit high, Li Yi hurriedly looked away, and cleared his throat as if nothing had happened with a blushing face.

"I'll go to the front yard to have a look, and I'll be back in a while."

He moved quickly to the door as if fleeing for his life, and he was a little reluctant to leave after opening the door.

"I have someone prepare some meals, and I will send them to Long Yi soon."

Gu Nanyan looked at him and nodded with a smile.

Li Yi's face turned even redder: "If you're tired, just lie down for a while, don't wait for me."

He glanced at her casually.

"I remember what you said, but if you sleep in separate rooms on the wedding night, it will not be good for you if it gets out. I will sleep on the couch tonight and move out tomorrow morning."
