After obtaining the Jincao position, Chu Nan's destiny increased by ten points, and the luck he could obtain every day increased from the original ten points to the current twenty points.
But after Chu Nan’s luck, there is clearly an additional word +108.
In other words, in addition to his own 20 points of luck, there is an extra 108!
Where does this extra luck come from?
After thinking about it, it seems that the most likely possibility is the additional bonus brought by the status of Jincao. This will have to wait until tomorrow to know. If it can be added tomorrow, and the values are about the same, then those few books can be determined.
Chu Nan suddenly discovered that Lu Lingqi was a bit of a lucky star for him. Before meeting her, he had almost encountered obstacles at every turn. Only he knew how much he had suffered in order to plan his way forward in this world.
What about now?
It seems that the awakening elixir that I have been searching for has been obtained without much effort, and I have also awakened the golden finger. Nowadays, there are more and more ways to obtain luck, and my days are becoming more and more promising.
Lu Lingqi may not know this favor, but she has to repay it. In life, he doesn't know what others ask for, but Chu Nan must ask for it with a clear conscience.
Although you can also pledge yourself...but in this kind of thing, it seems that you are the one who takes advantage!
He shook his head and shook off the messy thoughts in his mind. He ignored everything else. If the current problem couldn't be solved, how could he help others?
Chu Nan continued to look through the files. This time he was not looking through the account books, but some laws about salt and iron trading. At least he had to know how to take his next step and have a direction.
Regarding the salt and iron trade, there have been several changes since the Guangwu Zhongxing. Starting from Guangwu, the salt and iron trade was the monopoly of the government office in the early days. Later, due to many reasons, the salt and iron trade was relaxed.
During the period of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, the control over the salt and iron monopoly was strengthened, and private sales of salt and iron were severely punished. However, this policy was relaxed again during the period of Emperor He of the Han Dynasty. The government monopoly still existed, but the private sale of salt and iron was basically prohibited.
The attitude of allowing it to develop freely has been maintained to this day.
After understanding this, Chu Nan probably knew where to look for the salt tax.
When Chu Nan planned to engage in salt trading, didn't the great craftsman say that the government office would not allow it? But in fact, the law is already quite loose on the salt and iron trade, but when he wanted to do it, others would not let him do it. Why?
Because the salt and iron trade in Xuzhou has actually been monopolized. As for who is monopolizing it, let’s first exclude Lu Bu, who seems to be the biggest. How long has he been in Xuzhou? How long has he been the lord of Xuzhou? The foundation is unstable. How to control this kind of situation?
make a living?
To put it bluntly, Xuzhou and Qingzhou are both major salt-producing states. If Lu Bu could really control Xuzhou's salt industry, Yuan Shu would have had to pay at least 500,000 stones of grain and grass to impress Lu Bu.
The rest is obvious. The Mi family is a very wealthy family in Xuzhou. The wealth of the Mi family is probably second to none in the world, followed by the Chen family. Although on the surface, the Chen family does not engage in business, Xuzhou
Chu Nan knew that most of the fields were named Chen, and unlike the Mi family, the Chen family was a prominent family. The Mi family wanted to monopolize the salt industry, and no amount of money would be of any use without the Chen family's nod!
Once these two families join forces, will the tax on Xuzhou Salt and Iron be collected? Isn't it just a matter of words?
If I can secure the position of Golden Cao, will I gain more luck?
Chu Nan had the idea in his mind that if he could get more luck, it would be more than just an official career for him.
"Zi Yan, how do you see the file?" Yi Yan came in from the door and asked with a smile as he saw Chu Nan worrying about the file.
"I have no clue!" Chu Nan shook his head: "Brother Zhengli, I have something unclear, could you please clarify it?"
"Oh?" Yi Yan looked at Chu Nan in surprise when he heard this: "What's wrong with Zi Yan?"
"That's right. Although the imperial court does not prohibit people from cooking salt, there should be a special place for selling salt in the government office. Why can't we find the relevant files now?" Chu Nan asked with a puzzled look.
Through Yan Tie, he was almost certain that there was no one of his own in this government office, and even if there were a few of them, they would not be like this.
"Zi Yan didn't know something. Cao Cao came to attack Xuzhou a few years ago and massacred people, causing refugees to be everywhere in Xuzhou. At that time, in order to obtain enough food and grass to help the people, Tao Shijun exchanged various salt fields with various families in exchange for
A large amount of grain and grass have been provided to help the people. Relieving the victims is a matter of the government office. It is rare for the clans to be willing to help, but it would not be good if it were given for free." Yi Yan sighed.
"I see." Chu Nan said with a helpless smile: "It seems that my job as a gold medalist is not easy."
"It's okay. I have been replaced by Jincao several times before, but they have failed to achieve anything. Marquis Wen will not blame you." Yi Yan said with relief, smiling.
"I hope so. Brother Zhengli is here, but do you have any advice?" Chu Nan asked with a smile. In matters in this government office, one does not seek merit but seeks no fault, but the position of Jincao must obviously be obtained.
It’s a good thing, so it’s no wonder no one wants to step up.
"I don't dare. It's just that it's getting late. I'm going home for a banquet, so I came here to say goodbye to Zi Yan." Yi Yan said with a smile.
"It's already night before I know it." Chu Nan looked out the window and found that the sky was getting dark. He stood up, stretched out and said, "Let's go together!"
He stood up, closed the door, and followed Yi Yan out. The two of them lived on different roads, so they bowed and said goodbye at the door of the government office.
Why do I feel like I’m in ninety-six!?
On the way home, thinking about the events of this day carefully, Chu Nan suddenly realized that today's day seemed to be no different from the days when he clocked in and out in his previous life. If there was any difference, he might be able to go to work and fish after being stable, except for the times.
Other than being different, these days seem to be pretty much the same.
I thought I had escaped from Nine-Nine-Six, but I didn't expect that I would still have to live like this in ancient times. Is this my fate?
Climbing up further, it seems that apart from the different sizes of official hats, there is no difference. At most, they have a sense of superiority than others.
Thinking of this, most of the fighting spirit in Chu Nan's chest instantly dissipated. When one day I make the decision, I must change this evil system!
When I got home, the sky had completely darkened.
fluttering~
Before he saw anyone, he saw the Mantis King flapping his wings and flying in front of Chu Nan and flying around him.
Chu Nan stretched out his hand, and it automatically fell into Chu Nan's palm.
Anyway, I spent a hundred luck today in vain, and I just used it to upgrade you!
Chu Nan looked at the Mantis King and wanted to upgrade it to another level with a smile, but as soon as he thought about it, he was reminded that the special luck could not be used.
Special luck!?
Looking at the feedback from the system, Chu Nan felt a slight toothache for a moment.
