The big man has a living father

Chapter 51: The Soul of Freeloader
Huo Hai smiled awkwardly.

If you get caught doing this kind of thing, you won't be able to make excuses.

Liu Che smiled calmly, just wanting to see how a non-stick pan like Huo Hai would argue in this situation.

Huo Hai finally spoke up: "Your Majesty, I am here to dig for money today, which is beneficial to the country and the people."

Liu Che: "..."

After Huo Hai finished speaking, he let himself go, beaming with joy: "This money, buried here, is not money. It is stone, gravel, anything, but it is not money."

“This money is only money when it is circulated.”

“Only money in circulation can stimulate consumption and create value.”

"If the money is just buried here, there will be less consumption, less circulation, less value created, and the enthusiasm of the people will decrease!"

Liu Che had an expression that said, "Just keep talking nonsense."

Huo Hai used his ultimate move: "Don't refrain from doing good deeds even if they are small, and don't do bad deeds even if they are small. Even if the matter is small, if everyone follows suit, it will be a huge matter!"

When Liu Che heard Huo Hai's words, his face changed.

Indeed, one hundred coins is indeed a small matter, but what if ten million people each had such a hundred coins?

Are these 100 coins really referring to the 100 coins in the soil? The money that the people hid at home and refused to take out was more than 100 coins.

Liu Che thought, who on earth asked the people to hide the hundred coins at home and not take them out to use?
Isn't it me? I really deserve to die!
Thinking of this, Liu Che was stunned for a moment, and his thoughts turned around: That’s not right, how can it be my fault that this bastard stole money?

Liu Che: "I was almost fooled by you. You even fooled a child. You are really not a human being."

Huo Hai laughed awkwardly: "Your Majesty, that is not an ordinary child, that is the crown prince."

Liu Che said loudly: "Well, you are so shameless. I have forgotten all about this. You lied to the crown prince. What is the difference between that and deceiving the emperor?"

Huo Hai muttered quietly: "In essence, the emperor and the prince are natural enemies. Don't be so affectionate."

Liu Che: "What did you say? Speak louder, I can't hear you."

Huo Hai: "I mean! I am the prince's attendant. In addition to accompanying His Royal Highness to study, I am also responsible for giving lectures to His Royal Highness. There are some things that Master Dong and Master Shi cannot teach, so I have to teach them."

Liu Che raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Are you going to teach the prince a lesson? What lesson?"

Once Huo Hai started talking, he continued, "Your Majesty, I told you today that you reap what you sow. You will reap what you sow."

"It is to tell His Highness that if you want to gain something, you must pay for it. One hundred coins is the cost."

Liu Che: "Then if you take the money away, when the prince comes next year, he won't be able to see the new money. What lesson is this?"

Huo Hai: "I want to tell His Royal Highness that paying is not necessarily just about the cost, but also about effort! After paying the cost, you still have to work hard. It is because you don't work hard that you don't grow new money!"

Hearing this, Liu Che began to think divergently: "I understand. By then, the prince will think that he did not farm and will bury the money again. Then you will secretly dig it again. You are not digging for money, you are digging a hole to bury the prince!"

Huo Hai: "How is that possible! Your Majesty, please listen to me continue... continue!"

"Your Highness, I just want to tell His Royal Highness that hard work does not always lead to reward! This is a very important lesson! Of course, if His Royal Highness is very smart and realizes that he has been fooled, then His Royal Highness will understand that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Then this lesson will be even more important, Your Majesty!"

Liu Che was so angry that he laughed: "Well done, well done! I will send you to the Imperial Academy to edit books for eight hours a day. If you are lazy, you will break your legs."

Huo Hai stood up directly and said, "Your Majesty, I won't dig this Qian Chen anymore."

Liu Che waved his hand to the side, asking the Yulin Guards to step back: "Come here."

Huo Hai had no choice but to move forward.

Under the moonlight, Liu Che put his hands on his hips and looked into the distance: "Are you ready to fight Shi Qing? Do you know Shi Qing well?"

Huo Hai nodded: "Master Shi is very serious and meticulous in doing things. Even if the result can be seen at a glance, he still has to follow the procedures and verify it again."

"With Lord Shi's personality, being a prime minister won't be a problem, but being a county magistrate will probably tire you to death."

"Of course, because this is Chang'an and it is a special case, he may have a lot of helpers, so it shouldn't be the case."

Liu Che: "It is because Shi Qing is so meticulous in his work that it is very difficult to defeat him."

Although a person's energy is limited throughout his lifetime, even someone as strong as Zhuge Liang would be exhausted to death because he had to do everything himself.

Even if the Sima family lived as long as they did, Sima Yi was exhausted to death within two years after he stopped pretending and took over all government affairs.

But Shi Qing is different.

He was carefully selected. All the other teachers of the prince failed, but he didn't, which shows that this person has a way. As long as he doesn't die from exhaustion, his personality is too terrifying.

In ancient times, if a small place wanted to develop, the most feared thing was that various policies could not be implemented. But with Shi Qing around, they would definitely be able to be implemented.

Once the communication cost is reduced, his meticulous questioning and administrative time cost, which may seem high, will in fact be greatly reduced because there is no need for repeated revisions.

If Shi Qing were in any other county, doubling the economy in a year would not be a problem.

Of course, this is also because the team in this era is too makeshift. As long as the management level is slightly improved, it will explode.

However, Huo Hai is not afraid of this.

"Your Majesty, I know what you are going to say, but Your Majesty, when running, if you run in the wrong direction, the faster you run, the further away you will be from the finish line."

Liu Che heard the hidden meaning: "You mean, the county system currently implemented in the world is wrong?"

Huo Hai shook his head: "Not really."

Liu Che looked at the mountains in the distance and said, "I thought about it after I went back. Was it because you were setting a target when you attacked Zhang Tang that day?"

Huo Hai laughed awkwardly: "Your Majesty...I don't have any."

Liu Che: "Zhang Tang offended a lot of people because of the Salt and Iron Policy and the Wuzhu Coin incident. All the nobles hate him. And what you are going to do will also be hated by the nobles."

"The reason you beat Zhang Tang first was to make others think you were going against Zhang Tang, so you created so many problems."

"In fact, it's quite the opposite. You have many things to do, so beating up Zhang Tang is the best cover."

Hearing this, Huo Hai fell silent.

Liu Che is worthy of being Liu Che. Without any basis, clues or evidence, he deduced the truth out of thin air.

Is this a top politician?

Liu Che: "Since you have so many things you want to achieve, then do it in Chang'an County. If the impact is too bad, there is still time to calm it down. If I let you do whatever you want, I am afraid that even Qu Bing will not be able to save you."

Who is Zhang Tang? He is the craziest vicious dog in this court.

Huo Hai beat Zhang Tang up as soon as he came up, but it was just to make him a target and to cover up the real intention of what he was going to do.

Then this matter or these matters are definitely not ordinary offenses.

Liu Che had figured this out long ago.

It’s just that Liu Che wanted Huo Hai to focus on making money at the beginning and not touch these things before he was fully grown.

But after thinking about it, Liu Che really wanted to know what overall understanding of the economy this young man, whose ideas were different from others, had.

In addition to Shi Qing's incident, it happened that Liu Che announced the matter of Chang'an County and Wannian County without hesitation.

Huo Hai nodded: "Your Majesty, Shi Qing is easy to deal with, but the waves that will be stirred up later will be difficult to deal with."

Liu Che: "Tell me what you want."

Huo Hai: "I need someone."

Liu Che: "Who is it?"

Huo Hai: "Medical officer."

Liu Che was suspicious: "Are you really that afraid of being beaten?"

Huo Hai smiled and said, "Not really. I am going to do something very important. I heard that our court has the only female medical officer in history?"

This is also what I saw from watching short videos before.

Liu Che nodded: "Yishuo was the Queen Mother's favorite, but after the Queen Mother passed away a few years ago, Yishuo stopped coming out and stayed in the palace. The Queen would summon him from time to time."

"Why do you want a female medical officer to help you?"

Huo Hai: "Your Majesty, if all the women in the Han Dynasty could do something, I mean work, what would happen?"

Liu Che was stunned for a moment: "The birth rate will decrease."

Huo Hai: "But the labor force doubled in a short period of time!"

Liu Che thought for a moment and said, "We are just doing experiments anyway, so we can do it in Chang'an County as you wish."
