The Fang family was quiet in the middle of the night, only the bedroom was lit with a little light.
"Husband......
Tomorrow......
Can I accompany my concubine back to my parents' house?
” Zhang Shuhuijiao asked panting.
Fang Xing was furious: "You can still be distracted?
Look at the moves!
” After some tossing, Fang Xing fell off the horse, just trying to maintain the rate of breathing.
Zhang Shuhui lay on Fang Xing's chest, felt the beating under his chest, and said with a smile: "Husband, do you want to punish the concubine again?"
” "Good goblin!"
Of course, Fang Xing lost but did not lose, so he regrouped......
Fang Xing, who had scored twice, fell asleep, Zhang Shuhui curled up in his arms, reaching out to touch his chin, and her eyes were gentle.
A wise woman will not ask her husband, she will use her tenderness to resolve her husband's anxiety and insecurity. …… He woke up before dawn the next day, went to the yard for a few laps, and when he came back, he deliberately took off his shirt and proudly showed off his six-pack abs.
Breakfast is fried raw, and after taking a bite, the aroma of the meat spreads in the mouth, rich and endless.
Fang Xing ate ten in one go, and was about to eat another one when a maid outside said that Xue Huamin asked to see him.
"Let him wait."
Fang Xing put down the raw frying and after washing his hands, Zhang Shuhui brought his clothes and helped him change them with Xiaobai.
"Xue Huamin is not an outsider, so there is no need to cherish it so much."
Fang Xing hooked Zhang Shuhui and Xiaobai's chins, and when they were stunned, they quickly kissed each other, and then went to the front hall laughing.
As soon as they met, Xue Huamin reported a big news.
"Second aunt, Grandpa Guo was recruited into the palace last night, and His Majesty intends to let go of the salt introduction."
"The household department is short of money?"
Fang Xing's first reaction was that the DPRK was short of money, and it was not a small amount of money, otherwise Zhu Di would not give up the method of opening the middle that would be of great benefit to the side plug.
"The second aunt has no wrong eyes!"
Xue Huamin sincerely admired Fang Xing's reaction.
"No wonder ......"
Fang Xing remembered the word from yesterday afternoon, that 'nobleman' should have known the news first, so he came to warn Fang Xing.
"Second aunt, Grandpa Guo said, you have been to Yangzhou twice and know a lot about salt merchants, and Your Majesty should ask you for advice."
Xue Huamin smiled dryly: "Grandpa Guo said that this matter is concerned about the financial resources of many people, so it is best for you to mix it up." ” The so-called mixing up is to make Fang Xing keep silent, or take a vague position, but don't object.
"I see."
Fang Xing sent Xue Huamin away with an expressionless face, and then received an order to let him enter the palace.
When Fang woke up to the palace, he found that there were not many people today, but they were very luxurious.
Zhu Diye is all three, as well as several auxiliary political bachelors, as well as six books.
When the Ming Dynasty discussed important state affairs, it would never be expanded, and it would be coordinated among these important ministers before it was made public.
Fang Xing's identity is a little embarrassing, and he is not literate.
Jian Yi glanced at Fang Xing curiously, and was a little puzzled by Zhu Di's intention to specially summon Fang Xing.
Zhu Di said lightly: "The household is in short supply, I want to let go of the salt introduction, you wait to say it." ” The Ministry of Officials is the head of the six departments, so Jian Yi expressed his opinion first.
"Your Majesty, the original salt introduction was based on Kaizhong, although it solved the difficulty of transporting grain from the border fortress, but the household department also lost this share of the tax money, and the minister thought that he must find a way to get the best of both worlds, otherwise he could not be easily shaken."
This is the words of the old Cheng Mou Guo.
Zhu Di bowed slightly, and Jin Zhong said: "Your Majesty, it is not easy to cultivate in the north, unless a large number of migrants have passed, it is difficult to ensure the rations of the soldiers, as long as the matter of transporting grain can be solved, the minister has no objection." ” As the secretary of the Ministry of War, Jin Zhong can only speak from the perspective of his own position, and if he has more, he will be suspected of crossing the border.
Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty, the canal has been opened, and after that, the transportation of grain from the south to the north can reduce a lot of losses, and the salt introduction can indeed be changed." ” This is true, and it has the meaning of showing favor to Xia Yuanji.
Xia Yuanji was busy allocating resources all day long, looking a lot haggard, he hesitated: "Your Majesty, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the salt has always been distributed in the middle of the opening......
That's it, that's all it has to be now. ” Jin Youzi was very unimpressed by Xia Yuanji's words about setting up an archway, but he was not ready to wade into this troubled water.
Hu Guang finally spoke, and in the time just now, he had already considered it, and he seemed calm and unhurried at this time.
"Your Majesty, the population in the north is multiplying day by day, the canal is open, and there is a shortage of money in the household department.

This is the final speech, even if there is no Shoufu now, but the atmosphere that gradually forms makes Hu Guang already have the consciousness of Shoufu.
Zhu Di stroked his beard and looked at Fang Xing: "Xing Hebo has been to Yangzhou several times and knows a lot about salt merchants, what do you think?"
” The salt administration of all dynasties was the number one priority.
No one shall live without salt for a day, and without salt he will be powerless.
A country cannot be without salt for a day, and if there is no salt, the country will be poor.
The salt tax is the largest, most popular, and most stable tax.
Although it used to be used to open the middle of the salt introduction, it was actually equivalent to paying taxes indirectly, and this tax was used on the garrisons in various places where it was difficult to sustain grain and grass.
Only then did everyone notice that Fang Xing was in a daze on the side, and Jin Youzi smiled: "Xing and Bo Wenwu are both complete, so they must be able to have some deafening insights." ” Shake your sister!
Fang Xing glanced at Jin Youzi coldly, expressing his disdain for this kind of ridicule and agitation, and then said, "Your Majesty, dare to ask if you are going to sell salt for silver money?"
” Zhu Di nodded, this is a question he has been thinking about for a long time, if he continues to exchange grain for salt, Daming's taxes are still too small.
The current problem of the Ming Dynasty is that there is enough food, but there is a shortage of currency.
This has something to do with the habits of the Han people: ordinary people will put away some money when they have it, and some will even continue to hide the money at home for generations.
And the same is true of those merchants, who like to put away their wealth.
These habits led to the fact that there was less and less currency circulating in the Ming market, and a large number of copper coins and treasure banknotes were issued every year.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that salt is money."
Fang Xing looked around, and no one objected.
"So what does the salt merchant do?"
Fang Xing's smile was shocking, "The minister thought that they were just transporting money for my Ming Dynasty, and they got a lot of remuneration in the process, and they were rich enough to rival the country." ” Hu Guang's eyelids were beating, and Xia Yuanji's hand unconsciously kneaded the corners of his clothes......
"They just ship and sell, but the most fundamental production doesn't get involved in ......"
Fang Xing waved his arms violently and asked, "Why do you want to make them rich?!"
” Zhu Di was shocked, he remembered that Fang Xing had confiscated the harvest of the salt merchants in Yangzhou at that time, and it was an exaggeration to say that it was a bit of an exaggeration to say that the wealth was rivaling the country, but if it was accumulated according to this, the financial resources of the salt merchants would be able to determine the direction of a country.
"What did they do?
It deserves such a generous reward from my Daming!
” Fang Xing stood in the middle, and said with blazing eyes: "They didn't do anything, they just used the money to buy the salt lead, and then Gary sold it, this is a privilege!!
”
