The tea method that Sixth Brother mentioned has many restrictions on tea merchants, and it changes the place. If she were a tea merchant, she would probably not accept it.
In addition, Sixth Brother is still young after all, and he has not considered the whereabouts of the tea household.
How many people in the world live on tea?
Moreover, most of these people have been cultivating tea for generations. If the tea farms are contracted to tea merchants, where will these people go?
Farming?
Not to mention whether they have money to buy land, even if they buy land, they may not be able to cultivate it well.
Of course, Liu E did not completely deny the suggestions of the officials. After all, the officials were still young and lacked the life experience of the lower class.
It’s not surprising that I can’t think of tea households.
"Then, Brother Six, have you ever thought about what the tea owner should do?"
After thinking about it, Liu E felt that she should remind Brother Six.
Hearing this answer, Li Jie was slightly surprised. He had naturally considered the tea household, but he did not expect that Liu E would think of the tea household.
It seems that Liu E is not ignorant of the sufferings of the people.
"Tea households have two choices."
"First, tea households can choose to get a subsidy from the imperial court, which can be either land or money. With this subsidy, tea households can find another way to make a living."
"Second, tea farmers can sign employment contracts with tea merchants under the notarization of the imperial court and continue to make a living from growing tea. However, the income will be less than before, and similarly, the risks will be less."
Regarding the whereabouts of tea households, Li Jie referred to the restructuring of state-owned enterprises in later generations.
These tea farmers who make a living by growing tea are like employees of state-owned factories. Now that state-owned enterprises are facing restructuring, employees can either get a severance package and leave.
Or continue to work in the company, but after the restructuring, the company is no longer an iron rice bowl.
Although we have lost the iron rice bowl that guarantees harvests during droughts and floods, relatively speaking, it is not completely without benefits.
The capable ones go up, the mediocre ones go down!
No matter when or where, reform cannot take care of everyone.
After all, the cake is limited. Some people take more, while others take less.
There is no absolute fairness in the world, so Li Jie can only try to distribute it more fairly.
Half a moment.
Liu E thought about it for a long time and decided that this method could also be included as an option.
"Sixth brother can write a specific charter and send it to Zhongshu for discussion by the two governments and three departments."
"good."
Li Jie smiled and nodded. Discussion was naturally necessary.
The tea method involves financial planning, and any small changes must be made with great caution.
Although he can make decisions with a single word as the emperor, there are many links in the tea business from planting, to picking, to circulation, to selling.
He can't do everything himself, and in the end he has to rely on his ministers to complete it.
If you cannot convince them, it is inevitable that you will do something wrong in the process of implementation.
Reality is not like a game. You can't just click a few buttons and the task will be completed.
To take a step back, even if the plan is passed, it will not be fully promoted at the first time.
According to the conventional process, you need to choose a place first and try it out for one to two years or two to three years to observe the effects before gradually promoting it.
Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.
Whether it is useful or not, whether the talisman is suitable for this era, everything depends on the results of the trial.

Political Hall.
On this day, a closed meeting was held in the Political Hall. The attendees included Prime Minister Ding Wei, Deputy Prime Minister Feng Zheng, Councilor Ren Zhongzheng, Wang Zeng, Privy Councilor Cao Lili, Deputy Privy Councilor Zhang Shixun, and the Third Division Envoy Zu Shi.

The heads of the three major departments of government, military, and finance gathered together, and the discussion was naturally not a trivial matter.
As the Prime Minister, Ding Wei took the right to speak in the meeting without hesitation. When everyone arrived, he waved his hand.
Immediately afterwards, the scribes under the Political Affairs Hall walked into the meeting hall holding a stack of documents, and then distributed the documents to the ministers present in turn.
"Everyone, I have called you here today to discuss tea. Yesterday evening, a new law written by an official came from the palace."
"The specific content has been transcribed by the scribe. You can take a look at it first and discuss it in detail later."
Everyone present was shocked when they heard it was "official imperial pen".
In the past, what Zhongshu received was from the Queen Mother, but this time he received it from the official himself.
What this means is self-evident.
On the other side, seeing the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Ding Wei calmly stroked his beard.
Yesterday, his reaction was almost exactly the same as that of the ministers now.
The late emperor's mourning period had not yet passed, but the presence of the official family was getting stronger and stronger. This development was completely different from what he had expected before.
What is written in the edict is that the Queen Mother has the power to take charge of military and state affairs.
What is intriguing is that the official signed it personally, but the Queen Mother did not say anything.
The situation in the palace is getting more and more interesting.
At first, Ding Wei was very worried about this change, because strictly speaking, he relied on the Queen Mother to make his fortune.
If he hadn't joined forces with the Queen Mother, how could he have brought down Kou Zhun?
Qian Weiyan was the bridge between him and the Queen Mother, but now Qian Weiyan was sent to Heyang.
The bond was gone, and Ding Wei was indeed a little panicked.
Until a certain moment, Ding Wei suddenly woke up.
This time, that time.
Now that he is the Prime Minister, as long as he does not make any big mistakes, almost no one can threaten him.
It was precisely because he had figured this out that Ding Wei avoided talking to his son about tea.
It is true that there is money to be made in tea business.
But there are countless ways to make money in the world. As long as his power is still there, there is no need to worry about the gains and losses of one moment and one place.
About a quarter of an hour later, when he saw everyone putting down the documents in their hands, Ding Wei spoke.
“What do you think of the ‘buyout contracting’ issue mentioned by the officials?”
As soon as he finished speaking, no one here responded immediately.
Seeing this, Ding Wei was not angry.
'Buyout system' and 'contracting' are new words invented by the government. It took even him, the first three ministers who are well versed in financial management, a long time to figure it out, let alone others.
.
In fact, Ding Wei personally agreed with the new law proposed by the officials.
Although the ‘buyout contracting’ method is a bit difficult to understand, it is undoubtedly better than Zhang Dexiang’s ‘post-shooting method’.
The court benefited and worry was relieved, the tea merchants also made a profit, and the tea households were also taken care of. It can be said that all aspects were taken into consideration.
Until now, Ding Wei still found it hard to believe that this was proposed by the official himself.
How old is the official family?
Not to mention someone as old as an official, even the senior officials within the Third Division would not be able to come up with such a wonderful method.
"Ding Xiang, is this really written by an official?"
After a while, Wang Zeng recovered from his daze, slowly raised his head, and looked at Ding Wei in surprise.
