I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Liu Tan also never expected that Huo Guang would think so, but after tasting it, he found that it really seemed to be the case, and quickly said: "This will also be reported to the imperial court according to the tax items!"

Huo Guang shook his head and said, "No."

Liu Tan earnestly said: "Minister of the State, the treasury of the big man is not too rich now, so let's stop plundering the treasury's wool!"

If it weren't for worrying that the national treasury is not rich, and everything will be stretched in the future, why should he be so active in paying taxes?

As a vassal king, he has ten thousand ways to avoid taxes!

Huo Guang looked at Liu Tan with no expression on his face: "In your Highness's heart, is the minister a court moth?"

Liu Tan suddenly fell silent, looking at Huo Guang, he didn't dare to say anything, only dared to complain in his heart.

Huo Guang probably guessed what he was thinking, so he sighed and said, "Believe it or not, Your Highness, if the property fee is also considered a tax, once it is reported, other princes and states will follow suit. I know that Your Highness wants to reduce taxes, but others will not."

Liu Tan was shocked when he heard it, yes, he almost forgot about it.

Sometimes such things as exorbitant taxes are not customized by the imperial court, and have a great relationship with various places. Even if the imperial court restricts them, some people will collect taxes in advance, and there will be 20 years after the tax is directly collected.

Liu Tan was a little worried and said: "Then...even if you don't report it, if they find out, will it be..."

Huo Guang said: "As long as His Majesty doesn't say anything when you come down, and you're only in Shuofang, you don't have to worry about it. If the northern border countries are on par with Shuofang City in the future, then...that's something that can't be helped."

Even Liu Che might not be able to control much of this kind of thing. All they can manage is the northern border country, and it would be good if they can even manage the northern border country well.

Liu Tan sighed, rubbed his hands and said secretly: "It's okay, if other vassal states do this at that time, we will...welcome everyone to the northern border state!"

Huo Guang laughed and said, "It's good that Your Highness knows it well, other matters..."

Liu Tan said: "On these matters, well, let me list the requirements for the palace, and you can ask someone to draw the map."

Huo Guang said, "Okay."

Liu Tan raised his pen and wrote while chanting: "First of all, we must be close to mountains and rivers. Well, we don't have many mountains here, or... let's build a mountain."

Huo Guang: "Your Highness, wake up, there are not enough people."

Liu Tan regretfully gave up on this idea, and then continued to mutter: "There must be water, preferably by a relatively calm river, not too close or too far away, there should be plenty of vegetation around it, and it should not be too dry..."

Huo Guang finally couldn't stand it anymore after listening to him talking like this: "Your Highness, do you want me to enclose a place next to Chang'an?"

These requirements are difficult to meet in the northern border countries, okay?

Liu Tan said with some displeasure: "Father's east tour route has Penglai, Liu Fuling and Liu Mao will definitely let Father go to them, they are both near the sea, the scenery must be good, we can't be too bad, It’s really impossible to build an oasis.”

Huo Guang didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard it, he said that Liu Tan was not a wasteful person, why did he build a palace for the emperor so exaggeratedly, did he want to compare with his brothers?

He had no choice but to coax: "The conditions in the northern border country are not good, His Majesty knows it, and His Majesty's filial piety is also clear to His Majesty, there is no need to be like this."

Liu Tan was helpless: "Okay, since that's the case, I don't need them to draw the map, let me do it."

If there is no specific request, and if you don't want to be resplendent, Liu Tan thinks he can come by himself.

He had wanted a garden like the Humble Administrator's Garden for a long time. There are still many types of vegetation in the Northern Borderlands, so it can be changed. As a famous garden that has been passed down through the ages, the layout of the Humble Administrator's Garden should make Liu Che feel refreshed.

Huo Guang couldn't listen to the random thoughts in his mouth, so he turned around and left. He still had a lot of things to do, and he felt like the beginning of everything when he first arrived in the northern border country, so there was no time to waste.

Liu Tan didn't really want to draw the entire Humble Administrator's Garden, what a joke, no matter how good his memory is, he couldn't remember the specific distribution of the Humble Administrator's Garden. to be perfect.

In his memory, the East Garden is mainly composed of mountains, ponds and pavilions, among which the mountains are a bit difficult, so Liu Tan plans to use rockery instead.

Then the West Garden is also surrounded by mountains and rivers, among which water corridors and streams are the most important. As for the layout... because the Humble Administrator's Garden was modified by Qianlong, according to Qianlong's aesthetics... Liu Tan really would rather believe in the aesthetics of his craftsmen. I don't want to believe him, so the original compact layout has to be changed.

Especially the big man originally advocated openness, so it is only necessary to keep the water corridors and streams.

The words in the middle are the essence of the whole garden. The whole layout is centered on the pool, and the pavilions are built along the water, and some pavilions even go straight out of the water. This is a test of building materials.

But he is not afraid, he believes that cement can do it.

Then the south is the main residence, because this is the palace, even if Liu Che brings people, he will not bring too many people. The ministers who accompany him must not live in the palace, but must live in the post house, so he can compress the functional buildings in a large amount , arrange more ornamental buildings such as pavilions and waterside pavilions.

Because he was so fascinated by drawing pictures, he even forgot to look for Lu Xuan.

After hearing that Huo Guang had left, Lu Xuan waited for a long time but couldn't wait for Liu Tan, so he couldn't help getting up to look for Liu Tan, but as soon as he entered the study, he saw him drawing pictures seriously, so he had no choice but to find a place quietly Continue reading.

When Liu Tan moved his neck between drawings, he looked up and saw Lu Xuan sitting beside the bed. The sun shone on Lu Xuan's hands, and his slender fingers became more and more white as jade. Liu Tan couldn't help holding his face and thinking that Lu Xuan was really Everywhere is perfect, perfect just poked his point.

Feeling his gaze, Lu Xuan turned his head and asked, "Are you done?"

Liu Tan shook his head: "It doesn't count, but the rest can be handed over to others. By the way, you come."

Liu Tan asked someone to bring over the map: "Can I give you this place?"

Lu Xuan probed and found that Liu Tan was pointing at a square that was closest to the palace and in the center.

Lu Xuan also went out for a stroll in the past two days, knowing that the area of ​​each square is not small, he couldn't help being surprised: "Give it to me?"

Liu Tan took it for granted and said, "That's right, the people you bring can't live in the post all the time, right? What if your family members want to come and see? There can be a lot of people here."

After hearing this, Lu Xuan teased him and said: "So that's the case, I thought you wanted to kick me out."

Liu Tan turned around and hugged his waist and said domineeringly: "How can it be possible to sweep the floor out of the house? If you become me, you can't even run if you want to, dare to run errands to interrupt!"

Lu Xuan laughed, bowed his head and kissed Liu Tan, but he didn't refuse his kindness, anyway, the two of them are not short of money, so they can afford to give a workshop.

Lu Xuan even said: "The layout of Shuofang City is pretty good, and I will follow suit when I build the King City."

Liu Tan was a little surprised: "Isn't your royal city finished?"

Lu Xuan said: "That royal city is in the Western Regions. If I can conquer the Xiongnu River in the future, I must build a city there. After all, it is also close to you."

In fact, it is not as close as Mrs. Fan's City, and there are Junji Mountain and Zhuoxie Mountain in between, but there is no way, this is the closest place he can find, and Mrs. Fan's City is reserved for Liu Tan.

Liu Tan said: "Alright, hey, let's talk about this first, this workshop is handed over to you, you can build it however you want, but you have to send someone over yourself."

He was a little embarrassed to explain: "My father wants to come, and he has to build a palace for him, and there are many other places that need to be started, and there are not enough people."

Lu Xuan pondered: "Insufficient manpower? There are quite a lot of Huns."

Liu Tan took a deep breath: "Don't provoke the Huns in a short time, right? Wushilu probably won't let the Huns go south of Mrs. Fan's city. If we send troops to annoy that psychopath, I'm afraid there will be trouble .”

What Shuofang is most afraid of now is trouble.

Lu Xuan smiled and said, "Who said we're going to fight? We have other ways."

Liu Tan's face was full of question marks: "Huh? What can I do?"
