Lay to win!Cannon fodder, he has become the chief assistant

Chapter 200
Wang Yanqing didn't want to leave, but he had to.

As a result, when they got into the carriage, everyone was crying uncontrollably.

Xie Rongzhao was also sad, she felt that Wang Yanqing was a very nice person after being in contact with her for such a long time.

Cheng Jingzhou quickly took her hand: "Don't cry, baby, I will accompany you in the future."

I don't want Xie Rongzhao's next sentence to make Cheng Jingzhou depressed for a month.

"But I'm leaving too. Auntie said that we stayed here for so long mainly to take care of brother Yanqing. Now that he has returned to the capital, we have to go back."

The corners of Cheng Jingzhou's mouth twitched a few times: "Baby, it's almost Chinese New Year, why don't you tell your mother that you stay here and let her go back to the mansion to take charge of the affairs?"

Liu Dalang, who was standing behind them, couldn't listen anymore, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Cheng Sanlang, are you serious? There are still two months until the Chinese New Year!"

Cheng Jingzhou stopped talking, it seemed that he really had to let people go.

Xie Rongzhao hugged Cheng Jingzhou: "I will miss Brother Jingzhou. You should study hard and exercise your body. My father said that a scholar must have a good physique."

Cheng Jingzhou felt a little stuck, didn't he mean he missed him, why did he bring it up to exercise?

Xie Rongzhao and Liu Ruolan went back to Beijing together, the weather is getting colder and colder, and it's unbelievable that the mistress of the Yifu is always away from home.

Xie Rongzhao still had only one Wang Zizhen to take care of him. Xie Xiuwen and Liu Ruolan both felt that this was good. If they usually go out alone, they will be accompanied by Mrs. Gu, which is better than taking the maid out.

The day after Liu Ruolan returned to the mansion, Dingguo Mansion sent people to send a lot of thank you gifts.

After counting, Liu Ruolan once again sighed at the wealth of these noble families, she is not willing to buy such expensive things now.

Needless to say about the bird's nest, just looking at the two Liu Guang forgings, she felt that it was hot to hold.

"I heard that this Liuguang forging was donated by the Shu region this year. The emperor rewarded several nobles. Among them, there must be someone from Dingguo's mansion."

It was only this year that Liu Ruolan found out that this thing is more expensive than silver.

Looking at the inconspicuous Liuguang forging, such a horse can buy a small house, how can ordinary people afford to wear this?Even at a glance, I feel that I have gained a lot of knowledge.

Duke Dingguo gave two horses, of different colors, but they were all high-quality Liuguang forging.

"Keep it, and wear it when the baby grows up."

This thing can be stored, as long as it is stored properly, it can be stored for decades.

Xie Xiuwen learned that Duke Dingguo's mansion had sent such a valuable thank you gift, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked her to keep it. Because it was a thank you gift, they didn't have to prepare to return the gift. The government prepares a children's gift.

"I'm worried now, where do we have anything we can afford? In the past, it would be good to just give away the things we made ourselves in the shop, but now people like Dingguo Mansion, we are afraid that we have to buy them outside. Just do it."

In terms of the power of Ding Guogong's mansion, it may not be greater than Weixinhou's mansion.

It's just that they are good friends with Zhao Yue and the Gao family, and they have the favor owed by Zhao Yue before, so the relationship between the two of them becomes more and more natural, and they don't feel that they are the ones who have climbed the high school.

But the Dingguo Mansion is different, although they also have the kindness of helping, but the other party promised such a great courtesy, both Xie Xiuwen and Liu Ruolan still feel that it is better to keep a proper distance.

The person who was rescued was the eldest grandson of Duke Ding's mansion, and it was not Duke Ding or the eldest son. This is still different in nature.

Xie Xiuwen also didn't want to get involved in the family affairs of the Duke's mansion.

This day, Xie Xiuwen was ordered to serve in front of the imperial court again, and the imperial study was very quiet, apart from the sage and him, there was also a housekeeper taking notes in front of the case.

Even the servants who served here on weekdays were sent away by Emperor Jingwen.

"The issue of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce is brought up again, what can Xie Qing do?"

Xie Xiuwen rolled his eyeballs, and just hearing what His Majesty said, he knew that he did not agree with this move.

Last year, he mentioned some ways to deal with large merchants in a literary meeting, but it was too general, and the factions in the DPRK and China were complicated, so this matter has not been fundamentally resolved.

However, it was said that because of what he said when he was old last year, it was spread, which made the court quiet for more than half a year.

It's just that I didn't expect that Mr. Qin Ge mentioned this matter again now, and I don't know why he is so stubborn.

"Returning to the Holy One, I believe that agriculture is the foundation of the country, and it must be unshakable. And merchants are also indispensable. If merchants are suppressed too much, apart from the tax revenue of the court, the biggest damage will be Those farmers."

Emperor Jing Wen was puzzled: "What do you mean by Xie Qing's words?"

"Returning to the Holy One, Wei Chen was born in the countryside, backed by mountains, and his family has some Susukida, so they can live on food and clothing, but most ordinary people don't just need to grow grain and eat, they still have some to live on. Necessities are inseparable from merchants."

Emperor Jingwen frowned slightly, motioning for him to continue.

"Most of the common people can do it by themselves and have enough food and clothing. But for some things, they have to rely on buying and selling. For example, if a farmer's family produces more grain, they can sell some of it for money, which can be used to buy meat, salt, and even for their children and grandchildren. Reading. And this process is inseparable from merchants, whether they are merchants or merchants, it is very important."

Emperor Jingwen understood it, and sighed, "You know that I know such a simple truth, but why don't some people know it?"

Xie Xiuwen was silent for a moment: "Returning to the Holy Lord, maybe it's not that they don't know, they just think it's not impossible to leave these merchants, or in other words, their purpose is just to suppress those big merchants."

Emperor Jingwen glanced at him inexplicably. As an emperor, he naturally didn't want to have merchants who were wealthy and powerful, and he always felt uneasy.

"Suppressing big merchants, besides imposing heavy taxes, are there other ways?"

Emperor Jingwen didn't say it directly, but Xie Xiuwen understood.

Those big merchants who have accumulated for several generations don't care about the extra taxes levied by the court.

It's like they originally earned 10 taels of silver a year, but now they are asked to earn 8 taels. At most, they will be a little unhappy, but they will definitely not hurt their bones.

After all, the family heritage is deep enough.

Xie Xiuwen also realized at this time that Qin Gelao and others mentioned emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business again this time, perhaps with the approval of the Holy Majesty.

But the Holy One is also a wise king, and he doesn't want to hurt those small merchants, so he keeps worrying.

"My lord, if just imposing heavy taxes is not enough to suppress, maybe we can start from other places, for example, whether some of these merchants have bought and sold land privately, this is also a way."
