Chapter 204 Li Wei invites guests

Li Wei hummed a small song all the way back to the "Lao Ma Ji Inn". He felt so beautiful, let alone what is the personal guard? He was the royal guard who served the prince at any time. Once he entered the personal guard, he not only had a background, but also had many opportunities to promote. A third-class guard in the royal palace was from the fifth grade, and his promotion speed was much faster than those sour juren.

As soon as he entered the inn gate, Li Wei ordered the waiter: "Source a table of good tables for me and deliver them to the room." [The latest updates are all available in the search.]

The waiter in the inn was the most clever one. When he heard Li Wei’s order, he knew that the master had a happy event, so he flattered and said, “Oh, Mr. Li has a happy event today. Look at his spirit, he either has an promotion or makes a fortune.”

Youdao means that people feel refreshed when they are happy. Li Wei laughed and said, "Boy, you have the strength to be strong. You are well-known. I have rewards." As he said that, he threw a piece of silver slug.

"Thank you Mr. Li to the reward." The waiter grabbed the silver-smack with one hand, bowed to thank him, stood up and asked again, "Master, are you going to have a banquet today? Is it a 100-two-one meal?"

Li Weijing was also stunned when he asked, "Is it okay to eat by myself?" Thinking about it, it was very boring to eat alone. He was a generous and open-minded person, so he smiled and said, "Can there be merchants in Jiangnan in the inn?"

It is now the end of the year, and there are no merchants in the inn. Except for two candidates who came to adapt to the water and soil in advance, everyone else could not get the benefits. The waiter also responded very quickly and immediately smiled and said, "Yes, there are two, Mr. Li, please go back to the room to sit down. If the arrangement is made, I will put a hot towel for you." After that, he bowed happily to Li Wei.

Not long after, several servants in the restaurant put a food box in Li Wei's room with food boxes. The 10 taels of silver was also a good mat in the capital. The plates and plates were stacked and placed on a full table. Although Li Wei was tall and had a lot of food, he was a little worried when he saw the table.

The waiter did his best to do evil, and Dai Duo and the others came over. As soon as he entered the room, he introduced: "Mr. Li is from Jiangsu, this is Mr. Yu from Haiyan, Zhejiang, this is Mr. Dai from Anhui and Prefecture. You can do it for a hundred years and get on the same boat. The three of you are in our inn, so... it's also a good fate. Three of you are slow to use it." As he said that, he put oil on his feet and slipped away. He deducted one or two taels of 10 taels of mattress, but he didn't dare to stay too long.

As soon as the waiter left, Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo bowed and said, "You are taking the liberty to bother Brother Li."

Li Wei was a generous person, but when he was in a good mood, he laughed and said, "It is a fate to meet him. Li is a cheerful person. You don't need much politeness. Please, please sit down."

Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo were both juren, and they attended many banquets. They often spoke as soon as they answered the exam. Seeing that Li Wei was hospitable, they were also defensive. The three of them sat down and had three glasses of wine, and they started to talk more. After careful words, they realized that Li Wei had actually defected to the current 14th Prince Heng today and was accepted as a personal guard.

The two of them immediately felt relieved. It turned out to be a wedding banquet. Although they were a little envious, they were not jealous at all. They had different backgrounds and careers. Seeing that Li Wei was generous, they kept persuading to drink.

Dai Duo drank a few drinks, but suddenly thought of the case of "Nanshan Ji". Now the Fourteenth Master is in charge. Since the court has been lenient, it will definitely not be prohibited from visiting him. Why not take this opportunity to beg Li Wei and find an opportunity to go to prison to see Dai Mingshi, so that he can not only make a good relationship, but also improve his reputation in Shilin.

Thinking of this, Dai Duo covered his face with some alcohol, raised his glass and said, "Brother Li, since he has joined the Fourteenth Master's personal guard today, I wonder if he can do the next favor."

"Brother Dai, please tell me." Li Wei also felt a little drunk and said generously: "As long as I can do it, I, Li Wei, will never refuse."

"It's not difficult." Dai Duo sipped the wine and said, "Dai Mingshi, who was in the "Nanshan Ji", is a uncle from the Xia tribe. He is now in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. The court is now lenient to deal with this case. I want to go to the prison to visit it to fulfill my filial piety."

Upon hearing this, Yu Hongtu also helped, "Brother Li must help you with this. The Fourteenth Master is now in charge of the case of "Nanshan Ji". This matter is just a slight effort for you."

"Okay, I remember this in my heart. The prince was happy that day. I'll ask you for love." Although Li Wei drank a few more drinks, he knew in his heart that although he agreed, he did not dare to say anything to death.

Seeing Li Wei agreeing, Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo were both happy and drank twice. Yu Hongtu said, "It's better to tell a joke to make everyone happy." As he said, he said:

Someone spent money to buy an official job. After taking office, he went to see his superiors.

The boss asked: "What is the customs and conditions in Guixian?"

He replied: "The wind and sand in this county are not heavy, and there is less dust."

Question: "How about spring flowers?"

Answer: "This spring, cotton is 28 per catty."

Question: "How about gentlemen's food?"

Answer: "A little man should wear three feet and six feet in size."

Question: "How are the people?"

Answer: "There are only two white apricots, but there are many red apricots."

The boss said angrily: "I'm asking Li Guan."

He replied respectfully: "Sir, there are many pear trees, but the fruits are too small."

The boss was furious and asked sternly: "I'm not asking the apricot and pear trees, but my little people."

He quickly stood up, bowed his waist and replied, "The little one is called Gou'er."

When Dai Duo heard this, he laughed and said, "Brother Yu knew me before?"

Yu Hongtu was puzzled and shook his head and said, "Why did Brother Li come here to ask when he meets for the first time today?"

Li Wei said seriously: "Li's nickname is called Dog'er."

As soon as they finished speaking, Yu Hongtu and Dai Duo were so happy that they couldn't stand up.

The West Warm Pavilion of Qianqing Palace.

Kangxi was reviewing the memorial, but he heard Li Dequan report in a low voice: "Emperor, Ortai is delivering a sign outside to ask for a visit."

"Well, call him in." Kangxi said without raising his head. After reviewing the memorials in his hand, he raised his head. Ortai is coming soon. I wonder how effective the Qinhuai River pilot project is. In the early 14th year, I was willing to use the two-year income of the Qinhuai River to offset two million taels of silver. I guess it would not be much worse.

After Ortai came in, he knelt down and said, "I beg you the Emperor and the Emperor." After getting up, he knelt down on a special white carpet.

Kangxi then asked: "How much is the annual income of Qinhuai River?"

"Return to the emperor, one million, six hundred thousand taels."

Kangxi was slightly stunned when he heard this, but it was much more than he expected. He was already content with one million taels. Unexpectedly, it was 1.6 million. Soon, he continued to ask: "How does the brothel owner react? How much does the tax account for the income?"

"When you go back to the emperor, taxes have accounted for 30% of his profits. The brothel owners complained a lot, but no one closed down and stopped the market because of this." Because he was kneeling, Ortai's answer was as concise, accurate and refined as possible.

Only 30% of the business accounted for, there were 1.6 million. Kangxi did not expect that the brothel industry in the Qinhuai River in Jiangning was so prosperous that it was so prosperous that since no one closed down and the market was stopped, it means that this method was still feasible. In the past, it was only one in twenty. It was really cheap. The group of vampires were too cheap. The fourteenth brother had the eyesight. This method not only saved money, but also did not harm the people.

After pondering for a while, Kangxi continued to ask, "Can you add it in your opinion?"

When he heard that Kangxi had the idea of ​​increasing taxes, Ortai hurriedly replied: "Go back to the emperor, the Fourteenth Master came to Jiangning. I once asked for instructions on this matter, and the Fourteenth Master's intention was no more than 30%. I personally think that the current standard is just right. After all, they have to pay some local miscellaneous taxes. No matter how high they are, they are afraid that they will be counterproductive."

Kangxi nodded slightly, but he could not kill the chicken to retrieve the eggs. After pausing for a moment, he continued to ask: "What do you think about the Qinhuai River pilot?"

On the way back to Beijing, Ortai had imagined countless times what Kangxi would ask. This question was also as expected. After sorting it out, he replied: "Return to the emperor, the Qinhuai River pilot of the Fourteenth Master is in line with the Beijing Industrial and Commercial Tax Pilot. The main purpose is to correctly guide the luxury consumption industry. The Qinhuai River pilot is to impose high taxes on the luxury industry. The Beijing Industrial and Commercial Tax Pilot is to adjust the high collection and low supplement to balance the normal development of various industries.

The pilot situation of the industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax in Beijing is unknown, but the pilot of the Qinhuai River is undoubtedly very successful. The pilot of the Qinhuai River has also made a preliminary understanding of other industries in Jiangning. I personally think that this method can be vigorously implemented, which not only benefits the country and the people, but also curbs the abnormal development of the luxury industry, and also supports the development of necessary and low-profit industries."

Kangxi glanced at Ortai with satisfaction. The fourteenth old man commented on this person, diligent, cautious, meticulous and meticulous, and good at learning from one example. It seems that it is a good idea. After pondering for a while, he said: "I want to also promote industrial and commercial tax reform in Jiangning City. Do you have confidence?"

Ortai was overjoyed. The Fourteenth Master said it was right. Kangxi was indeed going to start vigorously reforming the tax system. This was a rare opportunity. He kowtowed steadily and said, "The slaves must do their best to ensure stability, orderly and efficiently promote the industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax reform in Jiangning City."

Listening to him put stability and order in front, Kangxi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Jiangnan is a major place for national taxation, stability is the first priority. The reform of industrial and commercial taxation is related to national policies. I will not repeat the importance of pilot projects. Everything needs to be progressive step by step. All the data in various industries must be accurate and used as a reference for promotion."

"I respect the emperor's teachings and will work diligently and do my best." Ortai replied calmly.

Kangxi said with a slight head, "Yinzhen is also in Jiangnan. If you don't understand, please ask him for advice. In order to facilitate your reform of industrial and commercial taxes in Jiangning, you will be awarded the title of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue."

From the second-grade Ortai, he was promoted from the fourth-grade to the second-grade minister. As expected, he was promoted from the fourth-grade master to the fourth-grade minister. "I would like to thank the emperor for his noble kindness and will do my best to repay him."
