Someone spends money to treat him to dinner, especially Zhu Laosi’s grandson, so Master Yang will naturally not be polite. He orders food and must order expensive ones, otherwise he will not give Mr. Zhu face!

Zhu Zhanji's mouth twitched several times, and finally waited until Master Yang finished ordering the dishes, but heard Master Yang pointing to the table where many followers were sitting and said to the waiter: "These tables are also on this one, and it is all Mr. Zhu who pays the bill."

After the waiter nodded and bowed, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help glaring at Yang Shaofeng several times: "These treasure money are mine. Could it be that you don't use my money as money?"

Yang Shaofeng smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll have a meal first. Let's talk about it after I finish it. I don't know how the wine and food are like here. Can I compare to Zuixianlou?"

Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but glared at Master Yang again: "Why not? That's all the smell of treasure money! This time I went to Shuntian Mansion. If you don't tell me about how to increase grain production and how to build roads, just wait for me!"

Yang Shaofeng spread his hands indifferently and smiled, "Look, it's only a lot of money. Do you feel sorry for this?"

Pointing to the lobby of the restaurant, Master Yang continued: "The more people eat here, the more money you spend, the more commercial taxes you will get, and the court will take advantage of it inside and outside."

Zhu Zhanji snorted coldly and said, "So what if the court takes advantage? It's not that I take advantage of it, but that I spent more money!"

Yang Shaofeng said: "Why, I feel uncomfortable feeling that my money was taxed by the court and took advantage of it?"

Although he didn't want to admit it, Zhu Zhanji still honestly said: "It's not bad, there are a few."

Yang Shaofeng smiled and said, "That's right. The court collected taxes, but you didn't see any actual benefits, so you naturally feel uncomfortable.

But then again, those people feel relieved after being taxed by the court?

What if the court will collect taxes to build roads and schools? Can the people really see the changes around them and enjoy the benefits, and will they feel uncomfortable? The so-called taking from the people and using them for the people is here."

Seeing that Master Yang said a few words and went back to the road construction, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but retort: ​​"Of course you and I know this, but do the people know it?"

They only think that building roads and schools is the duty of the court, so how could they think about where the court’s money comes from? Maybe they will be deducted from the name of heavy taxes, right?"

Yang Shaofeng said: "Yes, the people naturally don't know, so the court should let the people know. Confucius said, the people can do it, and if they cannot, they should know it, so they should open up the people's wisdom and establish more schools.

Of course, this brings us back to the original question, which is whether it is necessary to give preferential treatment to scholars for exempting taxes and labor service?

If more and more scholars are studying, more and more land will be exempted from taxes. Where will the tax be collected? What should I do if I don’t have taxes?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "That's why the Yangzhou pilot was launched? Why not directly promote it in the entire Ming Dynasty?"

Yang Shaofeng sneered and said, "Push directly? Pay taxes first and then pay cereals and silver. What do you think is the way you go in and out? Is there any chance to get on the move?"

Zhu Zhanji suddenly reacted and asked, "What's wrong. You just told me all these messy things along the way, as if you were deliberately giving me some advice. What do you want to do?"

After a while of silence, Master Yang forced a smile and said, "What do you think I want to do?"

Zhu Zhanji was also silent for a while before saying, "I think you are now, according to your words, just eat salted fish, wait for death."

After a pause, Zhu Zhanji continued, "But I don't think you should be like this. I always feel that you are actually arrogant and feel that everyone is drunk and you are awake alone. You are just sealing yourself up."

Seeing that Master Yang looked unquestionable, Zhu Zhanji was suddenly anxious: "I know, you know who I am, but what you know is only on the surface!"

After sighing, Zhu Zhanji continued, "We are sworn brothers. We were born on the same day of the same year, the same month and day. When we were young, we called each other grandpa. You are one hour younger than me.

Grandfather still remembers that when he saw you, he remembered the past when Mr. Yang blocked the knife for him. He would not forget the way you hugged him and called grandpa in the mansion when he was a child. He would not forget the way you held the small wooden sword and said you wanted to expand territory for him. He would not forget the way we said we would share the blessings when we were sworn brothers for two hours.

Don’t look at me, I actually don’t remember these things anymore, and I can’t see them so deeply. It was my grandfather who told me.

He said that on the surface you look like you don’t care much about anyone, but in fact you look down on anyone in your heart. You always feel that everyone is drunk and you are awake alone, but you are also afraid and don’t know what you are afraid of.

You have to know that I really treat you as a brother, and I am more close to other uncles and brothers than those brothers or even those brothers.”

Yang Shaofeng's heart was already full of tears. What can I be afraid of? I am afraid of the whole family being neatly organized! Li Er is happy to kill his brother and kill his brother. Our grandfather is not a good-looking bastard!

If I had known that I had such a powerful backstage, I would have to confront the masters of the dynasty in the imperial examination? What kind of poetry can I confront people? I'd be fine if I'd be living a life slowly, bastard! Why didn't you say it earlier!

After taking a few deep breaths, Yang Shaofeng suppressed his inner excitement, reached out to the scholar sitting in the lobby, and whispered: "Look at who are sitting here, let's listen carefully to what they say later."

Zhu Zhanji looked at Yang Shaofeng with a little wet eyes and said with a confused look: "What am I telling you? What are you saying to me? Do you treat me as a brother?"

Yang Shaofeng chuckled and said, "Of course it's the kind that's more timid than brothers, it's a must!"

If you hadn't lived thirty-seven years, I would have to take you to re-swallowed again now, and I would have to die on the same day of the same year, month and day!

Seeing Master Yang say this, Zhu Zhanji's face also eased a little: "Then don't worry about them for now. You have to tell me first, what do you want to do?"

Yang Shaofeng smiled and said, "What do you think I can do? When I come back from Shuntian Mansion this time, I will either be thrown into the Hanlin Academy or put into the Censorate. What can I do? I just go through the scriptures.

Now I will tell you all the problems I have found, and I will also tell you the solutions I can think of. You can take time to think about it and solve it."

Zhu Zhanji finally accepted Master Yang's statement. In fact, if Master Yang didn't want to say it, Zhu Zhanji didn't plan to continue asking questions.

It is not easy to have a brother who has no interest. It is really rare not to worry about him keeping his position at all times.

Seeing Zhu Zhanji listening to the scholars' conversation, Master Yang felt relieved. While drinking a little wine happily, he asked Lin Yu about his fiancée from time to time, while secretly observing Zhu Zhanji's expression.

It was so fun. Looking at the baby's face from white to red, then from red to black, and then I didn't know how to describe it at all, until I finally returned to the expressionless calmness, it was even more interesting than changing my face.

After a while of silence, Zhu Zhanji didn't say that the food was full of treasure money, but instead felt it was particularly difficult to swallow: "Is this the so-called well-educated people? Is this the so-called pillars of talent?"

Yang Shaofeng nodded and said, "Otherwise? People are selfish, and they raise all kinds of people. Who doesn't think about their own selfishness?"

Zhu Zhanji stared at Master Yang and said, "What about you? What about your selfishness?"

Yang Shaofeng was silent for a while and said seriously: "My selfishness? I just want to be a landlord honestly and then live my life. This is the truth.

Of course, by the way, I don’t mind telling these corrupt scholars what are real scholars, what are real gentlemen, and what are excellent young people!”

Zhu Jizhan looked at Yang Shaofeng again and sneered: "You have entered the officialdom and still want to go back and be a salted fish?"

Yang Shaofeng nodded and said, "Of course. Look, I offended all scholars, I offended all the officials in the court, and I can't move in the officialdom.

When will someone impeach me, I will resign in order to prove my innocence. Can I perfectly leave the officialdom?

When you go home, be honest and be a salted fish, and solve all the messy problems for you, such as how to produce high yields in food, how to repair roads so that they can be fast and good, and how to get other people’s money into our brothers’ pockets.”

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said, "You are thinking too much. Some people in the court will impeach you, but some people will protect you, such as Xiabutang and grandfather. How could it be so easy for you to go home and be a salted fish?

Don’t think about the things that are missing, just stay in the Hanlin Academy honestly. After all, a real-time Hanlin student is very different from those who are empty. It’s almost the same as a saying of hidden appearance.”

Yang Shaofeng was confused: "Someone could impeach me, but not?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded with a smirk, and the discomfort just now disappeared a little more. When he turned around and looked at the food and food on the table, he said, "That's true. By the way, you will know the account later."

When Yang Shaofeng looked at Zhu Zhanji with a confused look on his face, Zhu Zhanji said, "This is what you told me at the beginning. If someone is unhappy when he makes others unhappy, he only needs to bear half of the unhappiness. Why not do it?"

What do I fuck...
