Chapter 190 Inviting Kangxi out of the palace
After Yuzhu drew a unified tax return form, he ordered Wendena to take it to Sun Chengyun, arranged for someone to make the plate quickly, and printed a thousand copies overnight.
This kind of simple tax return seems to be nothing, but in fact, it implies the mystery of unified weights and measures and quantitative relationships.
The numbers in traditional Chinese are indeed necessary to be used on silver notes. Because there is absolutely no error.
However, when used in daily life, the numbers in Chinese are extremely inconvenient. The biggest disadvantage is that they occupy too much place.
For example, 12,345 taels of silver should be written in Chinese as 12,300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00
Too inconvenient!
In addition, today's big merchants basically carry all kinds of goods on a large cart, which is not convenient for inspection, but is not conducive to long-distance transportation, and slows down the efficiency of entering the city.
As we all know, container transportation is actually the most intensive and cost-saving among sea transportation.
Therefore, Yuzhu intends to use the power at hand to force the big merchants to require the goods transported must be classified in advance for easy verification.
During the day, there were too many people, cars and horses entering and leaving the city at all gates of Sijiu City. However, the city had to purchase goods, and the city was blocked every day.
Therefore, Yuzhu has already discussed with the old emperor that bulk goods are prohibited from entering the city during the day, and only after the night ban can the goods be delivered to the city.
Within an hour and a half, all goods outside the city must be transported into the city.
This is actually the same as when supermarkets can only replenish goods on a large scale after closing at night.
After the names of various goods are unified, in order to avoid leaking confidentiality, the tax return only lists the quantity and does not require the price to be indicated.
The purchase price and retail price must be submitted separately to Yuzhu. Otherwise, how can the amount of tax be determined?
When Yuzhu finished what was at hand, it was almost noon. He had to eat lunch and quickly got into the palace by taking a sedan chair.
Having to play chess with the old emperor every day is a top priority and it is absolutely impossible to delay.
While playing chess, Kangxi smiled and picked up the teacup, and it was obvious that this game was about to win again.
However, Yuzhu broke the situation without hesitation, and the situation on the market suddenly became chaotic again.
"You little guy, you are so tempted, are you so many things?" Kangxi frowned and scolded Yuzhu in anger.
Yuzhu said with a smile: "Old man, just watch the show."
Kangxi heard Yuzhu's pun, and smiled and said, "Yes, I've been waiting to watch the show."
Well, Yuzhu was worried that Kangxi would not accept this sentence, so he came up with a bad idea.
"Old man, why don't you, then, if you change your casual clothes, go join in the fun?"
Wei Zhu next to him, his heart is as bright as a mirror, and Yuzhu is waiting for the emperor here.
As he got older, Kangxi loved to play and disliked his government affairs.
In fact, according to Longkodo, Kangxi often left the palace privately. The emperor was quite free and comfortable in the 49th city, walking around here, strolling there, listening to operas, and taking a teahouse.
"This discussion is very good, I will follow you." Yuzhu happened to scratch Kangxi's itchy spot, and he nodded immediately.
After Kangxi took down A Ling, he did have a good effect of shaking the mountain and shaking the tiger. The banquets and gatherings that were originally held every day were also cancelled in Lao Ba’s mansion.
These are all the achievements of Jade Pillar’s impeachment. How could the old emperor be in a bad mood?
The father was very kind and the son was unfilial. This was the truest thought in Kangxi.
He was serving Wei Zhu on the side and secretly admired him.
The emperor's whereabouts have always been the highest secret and cannot be told to his ministers.
However, Kangxi agreed to Yuzhu's invitation without hesitation. This shows that in the emperor's mind, Yuzhu is a very trustworthy person.
In the first game of chess, Yuzhu lost very hard, but the old emperor did not win easily.
"Well, someone impeached you." The old emperor was in a good mood, so he gently put a memorial beside him at Yuzhu's hand, "Let's take a look?"
Yuzhu did not go to read the memorial. He shook his head and said, "What's there to read? I will do the job for the court. Who are those people doing the job for?"
Kangxi couldn't help but smiled silently. This kid is a very slutty boy.
Yuzhu has always been a wise man who is not confused about major matters. He must not touch the memorials that have not been approved by the emperor before.
Wei Zhu, who was standing beside him, nodded secretly, and Yuzhu said so much.
Yuzhu took the blame for Emperor Wansui to collect taxes. Those people asked the censor to impeach Yuzhu. Isn’t this intention to make things difficult for Emperor Wansui?
Hey, how can the guy who makes trouble for the Lord Long live will have a good end?
"I heard that you didn't sit in the eighth-carrying sedan chair?" Kangxi asked Yuzhu in a vain after falling down.
Yuzhu nodded and said, "To be honest, many important officials of the court can only sit in a sedan chair with four. Before my hair grows, I just sit in a sedan chair with eight. It's not appropriate."
"You are already married, who dares to say that you have not grown all your hair?" The old emperor was displeased and scolded the Jade Pillar to his face.
The emperor and Yuzhu were bickering, and Wei Zhu's head was drooping very low, and he didn't dare to say anything in a while, and he didn't dare to speak out. However, he knew very well in his heart that Yuzhu had passed another hurdle.
Wei Zhu has been serving Kangxi for many years, so he is of course very clear about the old emperor's temper.
It is difficult for the old emperor to truly trust a person, and he has to test it inadvertently, and this habit can no longer be changed.
So far, Yuzhu has been dealing with it very well. He never interferes in major matters, and does not speak seriously when he is involved in minor matters.
But when the old emperor was tired of hearing the dull monarch and ministerial report, he felt that Yuzhu's different response was extremely lively and interesting, and very fresh.
"You invited me out of the palace, what are you going to treat me to?" The old emperor wanted to tease Yuzhu.
Yuzhu shook his head frequently and said with an unhappy look: "I dare not care about your meals, nor should I care about me." His attitude was extremely clear and firm.
After hearing this, Wei Zhu couldn't help but suddenly realize that he finally found the reason why Emperor Longsheng loved Yuzhu.
Yuzhu is so favored that besides his family background and talent, more importantly, he always adheres to the true bottom line between the king and the minister, and never crosses the thunder pool.
How could the emperor's diet be able to participate in?
However, what Wei Zhu didn't expect was that the old emperor had a temper and said angrily: "Then why did you invite me out of the palace? I'm hungry, don't you have to eat?"
Yuzhu was also angry and yelled: "I will never interfere with your imperial meal." He rushed back with great courage.
"Get out, get out, get out." The old emperor's nose was crooked, and he wanted to raise his hand to slap him a few big ears, and even scolded him three times in a row.
Yuzhu rolled away in shame, but Wei Zhu saw a smile on his lips, flashing and passing away.
If it weren't for a personal person, it would be impossible to tell at all. The emperor was not only not angry, but was in a very good mood.
After Yuzhu left the palace, he returned to the supervision office with unprecedented success. He still had several forms that he needed to draw in advance.
Once you master the city gate, you master logistics. This is a huge advantage of not saying too much.
However, what is hidden in logistics is ten times more important than logistics, is actually a large amount of money flow.
In this era when the world was not popularized, the wealthy merchants must transport them to Beijing by manpower, whether they purchase goods or collect money.
After the jade pillar stuck in the city gate, the flow of silver from the great merchants could no longer be hidden.
In layman's terms, as long as the dual flow of logistics and money flow are controlled, the difficulty of the wealthy merchants' tax evasion will increase by geometric multiples.
Because the commercial tax is so low, to be honest, although Li Sier has made more than ten years and has made millions of taels of silver, it is still a distance compared to the real wealthy businessman.
However, since businessmen have no status, the real wealthy businessmen follow the principle of not revealing their wealth and deliberately hide their weaknesses.
How to find a real wealthy businessman? Yuzhu is already an old fry, and there are many tricks.
Based on Yuzhu's experience, the so-called rich man who doesn't have many big money in his pocket likes to show off his money in front of others.
True top rich people are afraid that they will be slaughtered as fat pigs, and they will not have time to hide their money. How dare they show their wealth?
This is what it means to say, only half a bottle of water likes to sway, but the whole bottle of water likes to pretend to be poor!
About an hour later, Yuzhu finished drawing the required form and called Wendena, and gave him all his orders to Sun Chengyun.
After Wendner went out with the form, Yuzhu picked up the teacup and took a pleasant sip.
Well, after all, Wendner is a subordinate. No matter how poor his family is, he has some background.
Not to mention anything else, the Biluochun brewed by Wendner is much better than Wujiang's craftsmanship.
As dinner approached, Yuzhu and Sun Chengyun each boarded the sedan chair and went to the fifth prince's dinner.
After Yu Zhu served as the supervisor of Chongwenmen, the business that the Fifth Prince secretly operated must be taken care of by Yu Zhu.
It was still the private room on the second floor of Zhimeilou, and the fifth prince still arrived early.
After Yuzhu entered the door, the fifth prince took his hand and let him sit beside him. Sun Chengyun took the flow and sat down at Yuzhu's lower head.
Everyone present was his own people, and the fifth prince was too lazy to bluff around and said directly: "There are some shameful transactions in my shop, and I need your brother to help you take care of them."
The fifth prince was really sincere in treating Yuzhu, and he was even more friendly than treating his own brothers. Yuzhu immediately agreed.
Seeing that Yuzhu did not hesitate at all, he agreed directly. Lao Wu was naturally extremely satisfied and immediately shouted that he would be drunk today before he could stop.
After the meal started, after drinking a few rounds of wine, Yuzhu asked Lao Wu with a smile: "Fifth Master, how many cash money do you have to move on your hand?"
I definitely don’t dare to ask this if I change myself. Even if I ask, I will still ask for a shot.
However, since it was Yuzhu who asked, Lao Wu told the truth.
"I'm going to tell you, my brother, over the years, I have managed the vassal court and have made some small financial resources. Let's put it this way, except for the total expenses of a year, there are still 300,000 taels of cash available." Lao Wu
Suddenly he sighed, "Oh, Lifanyuan is still too poor, and he is completely incomparable to you."
"Fifth Master, I'm going to tell you, I plan to open a ticket number, so you will pay 300,000 taels for me to make a fortune. If you make a profit, we will pay dividends according to the proportion of investment. If you lose, then 300,000 taels of silver will be fine.
, I will give you the same thing, okay?"
Lao Wu was stunned for a moment, suddenly lowered his face and scolded Yuzhu.
"Our man will do business together, and we must make a profit and lose money. We are willing to accept the loss. If we make a profit, we will share the money together. If we lose money, we will always have a way to get the money. Who wants your bad money?" Lao Wu
