Chapter 277: Get serious and seek the world
"Brother Yi, you can estimate how much money can you make in a year when digging a salt well there?" Li Chengqi successfully stopped Li Yi and asked.
"How many salt ponds and salt wells do we have in the Tang Dynasty now?" Li Yi asked another question, and he wanted to see how much salt it could provide.
"Nine salt ponds are located at present, and two hundred and seventy-six salt wells are provided by Li Chengqi.
This is different from the information Li Yi reads, with less and much less.
However, Li Yi understood as soon as he thought about it. Later, the Tang Dynasty began to collect salt taxes, which would inevitably increase the salt ponds and salt wells.
The data records are not the second year of Kaiyuan.
There were not so many at this time, and Chang'an mainly relies on the lake salt in Shanxi and the sea salt transported from the canal.
Shuyan is slow on land and is difficult to walk. It usually takes a long way to walk on the Yangtze River.
From the Yangtze River to the Grand Canal and from the Grand Canal to the canal, the ship carries more goods, which is still cost-effective than by land transportation.
"Can the people be safe in the coastal areas?" Li Yi asked another question.
"There has not been a big war in recent years, so it has not been much spent, which is quite good." Li Chengqi is not very clear about this.
"The cost of boiling sea is too high, and the price of salt in Shu will be hit by the wells, and the salt price will be reduced again and again. Your Majesty agrees to cooperate, and all officials in the court may have resentment."
After the matter was confirmed, Li Yi began to further advance.
Li Chengqi listened and nodded from time to time, without saying anything like "They dare?" and "kill if they don't accept it."
"So we need to collect salt tax, salt tax for pool salt and new-style well salt. His Majesty's money is private money, and salt tax is public money.
I think that the new method of digging wells can make countless money, and the area of Shu produces too much salt, making it difficult to survive in the coastal salt fields.
The new tax on salt harvesting in Shu was sturdy, which was beneficial to the country, and could ease the internal hiding and calm the grievances of all officials."
Li Yi was serious and told the situation.
Working with Li Longji, Li Longji and several brothers made money, including himself.
If too much well is drilled, salt is produced too quickly. What should people who specialize in boiling salt on the beach do? Should they take out the skills to dry salt now?
It’s not that far, it’s time to move forward smoothly.
According to the data, the coastal areas have never been very stable.
Li Longji made money, and all officials looked at him. This money... Oh my God! The national finances have no money, Your Majesty, what are you going to do?
When taxes are collected, the taxes collected are given to the Ministry of Revenue. Other places will ask for money in the Ministry of Revenue, and everyone is happy.
Li Chengqi was confused or stupid when he heard it.
Can you still play like this? Isn’t salt tax just commercial tax? If you promote commercial tax with great fanfare, all officials will inevitably refuse to agree for the interests behind them.
But salt is so profitable, the court has no money, and all officials want money, so it is normal to collect taxes. If all officials want support, you can't ask His Majesty to take away all the money.
"Brother Yi, are you... serious?" Li Chengqi felt that he was going to look at his brother Yi again.
Yi Di was so gentle before, and he always threw his skills out.
Some people bullied them to the door, and they just responded with each other, and never killed them all.
When anyone asks him what good ideas he has, he promises to tell him that he will not ask for anything in return.
The only most powerful move was to teach Pei Yaoqing to write a memorial to the people, and to put Zhong Shaojing, the Minister of Revenue, on the wall.
That was the most ruthless time, directly dealing with Shangshu.
As for the businessman's affairs, it's just a small fuss.
If we have to say another thing, it is the official school’s versus the clan, which is still taking the time, and there is only one new book, and others are editing the other books.
And the matter of salt is definitely not simple, so you can give me some advice.
The world's major events follow.
Li Yi calmly said: "If you don't use your strength, when will you wait? There is a chance. Shangshu Wei didn't come and ask, but I can't remember it."
"It's too fast." Li Chengqi said and drank a drink.
"Ten thousand years are too long, so you can only seize the day and night. Kaiyuan must be a prosperous era, and it must be a real prosperous era." Li Yi copied it first.
"Okay, Kaiyuan Prosperity." Li Chengqi was extremely supportive of this.
As he said that, he picked up the wine bowl, opened his mouth wide... paused, took a sip, and couldn't drink too much.
I had an empty stomach in the morning, and I couldn’t stand this bowl of rice wine even if I continued!
"Brother, I can't drink too much. I'll talk to you later." Li Yi advised first.
He used to drink, but others advised others to drink more. He asked others to drink less and control himself, so that he could not drink too much.
Sometimes when he invites someone to dinner, the other party is not happy and he is not happy. However, if he gives more in other aspects, the other party will forgive him.
After a long time, I always drink together. Those who were unhappy before were very happy and found that I felt relieved to drink with Li Yi.
Even if I have a wife at home, I don’t look at her face when I hear that her husband is drinking with Li Yi.
If you encounter someone with a very large alcohol content, Li Yi will accompany you to drink it, but you won’t eat any food.
Drink white wine, go to the bathroom, take a bottle of water from the bar, pour it in, and spit it out, so that the stomach acid is diluted and you will not burn your throat or esophagus.
Go back and continue to accompany you until the other party has almost finished drinking, so I persuade you to stay.
I couldn't eat anything anymore. When my body reacted, I found that food was entering the stomach, so I secreted bile and stomach acid hard, and it would be uncomfortable if I vomited.
This is a habit that Li Yi developed, not drink too much from others or let himself drink too much.
I had a drink with Li Longji before and was not sure about it and was not used to my youthful body.
Now that Li Yi is familiar with his health, he accompanied his elder brother to drink slowly, and said something to make a lot of money to develop and help the people in the future.
"Brother Yi, others always like to fight for wine, why are you not good?" Li Chengqi ate a bite of garlic and cucumber and asked about life.
"It's meaningless. It's easy to get into trouble when you get drunk. If something happens, you have to go to the hospital. If you go to the hospital, you have to bother the doctor.
If you drink too much, I will inject you with metadocin, omeprazole, and naloxone, and help induce vomiting. How tired you are."
Li Yi reasoned to his elder brother. He studied medicine, and what he feared most when he was a hospitalist was to meet people who were drunk at night on duty.
A group of people drank a lot, and one of them drank, and they couldn't do it anymore.
How to issue a doctor's advice? Who will sign it? Will those who drink too much make trouble during the rescue process?
If you didn't say a word, what should you do if anyone took out a knife over there?
"In this way, drinking with Yi Di is reassuring." Li Chengqi also discovered the same thing.
He turned his eyes and lowered his voice: "Brother Yi, none of you like those?"
Li Yi felt that his elder brother had drunk too much, even if he had just taken a few sips.
"Brother, they are partners, and rabbits don't eat grass by their nests." Li Yi found a reason.
"When they go back, what good songs or poems do you send?" Li Chengqi asked again.
"Do you want to send an endorsement?" Li Yi couldn't think of who to copy and what to copy, and he thought it would be better to continue to cooperate.
"It's not okay to send salt, let alone one bag, not to mention a few bags." Li Chengqi waved his hand.
"Brother is right. Brother, please try this braised foie gras. It's big. It's just like the taste that has been pierced by Konger." Li Yi didn't explain.
"When Brother Yi talks about braised food, I will make it according to the seasoning you gave me. After braised a few chickens, the taste is different from your farm? Fishy."
Li Chengqi always had problems and didn't understand. He asked Daru before, but Daru told him not to think about these useless things.
When I arrived at Yi Di, there was nothing useful or not. I just care whether you asked or not.
"The pot is small and there is no pressure. Unless you make it into a dry pot, otherwise... Brother, you won't just put it in and cook it, right? That one needs to be filled with blood first.
One is that it is too hot, which means putting it in cold water to heat it, boiling the bloody foam, and then braising it.
The other is to be cold, soak it in cold water, soak it out all the blood, and then cook it in marinade."
Li Yi felt a little guilty. Didn’t he tell all the steps to his elder brother?
"So that's the case. I'll deal with them when I go back. They must be to save trouble." Li Chengqi discovered the situation.
"Brother told them?" Li Yi asked.
"I said that I am a person from Zhuangzi Kitchen who is specifically asking you. Just as you said, I will tell the cooker when I go back that they promised to do it well, but the result is..."
Li Chengqi gritted his teeth.
Li Yi was silent and said, "He didn't want to talk to anyone, and told you not to do the steps when cooking, and you were clever."
Is it true that when working in the workshop, you are also smart when you are doing a safety regulation, but you are the ones who are good at it?
He used to repair the car when it was not easy to use, and he encountered one.
The muscle nodules on the chest are burnt and are not breathable. They cough when they speak. In summer, because the front chest is not sweating, they always apply water to the chest.
The car repairer told me that there was no open flame next to the fuel, and even more so, smoking was not enough.
The man felt that even if the cigarette butt was thrown into the tank where the gasoline was filled, it would not necessarily burn.
