I'm a scumbag?impossible! [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 74 The Arrogant Little Brother 41

As the end of the new year approaches, the Ministry of Household Statistics has calculated the treasury revenue for this year. Although it has been expected before, everyone is still surprised by the huge number. On the basis of various expenditures this year, in fact, the total income this year has approached 8000 million taels.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty didn't know that the change of their Liang Dynasty began with the Ministry of Industry, and it has only been half a year since the change began. Although the Ministry of Household Affairs has vigorously developed commerce and trade, this year's big head is definitely inseparable from the reform of the Ministry of Industry .

For those who reacted quickly, they immediately thought that His Majesty was relieved at the beginning. As long as it is from the Ministry of Industry, [-]% of the profits can be allocated to them independently.

Even if a part is used for research and development, as long as [-]% is set aside as a bonus, the number is astonishing, even a super prince will be envious, not to mention ordinary officials, it is really good to see their faces. The sour taste comes.

In fact, the purses of the people in the Ministry of Industry are indeed bulging a lot, but they are definitely not as exaggerated as everyone imagined. You must know that research and development is the most expensive, especially now that they are starting from scratch in many aspects, even if they are provided by Li Ziyu. Theories and methods, but turning ideas into reality requires a lot of preparation.

For example, Wang Laodao, who was sent to Zhongzhou by Li Ziyu, mined alkali mines and salt mines. Not to mention the long distance, they still need to carry out exploration, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources. In the end, they finally produced results and were picked up by the Ministry of Household Affairs. peach.

The imperial court has always practiced salt and iron monopoly. Knowing that the Ministry of Industry has discovered a large salt mine, Qian Shangshu listed it immediately, citing scriptures, and the central idea is that the salt mine should be owned by the state, and the Ministry of Household Affairs should be responsible for specific matters.

This time Feng Shangshu didn't say a word, he agreed directly, and he didn't even hold the alkali mine in his hands. Qian Shangshu didn't know the importance of the alkali mine, but he knew it very well. Such an important mine was a small Ministry of Industry. Where dare to share the profits, not to mention [-]%, even half of it is not allowed. Although he is old, his mind is very clear.

However, Feng Shangshu also mentioned that if the Ministry of Industry has related research and development needs, the Ministry of Households will either allocate funds or provide raw materials, and the emperor readily agreed.

Emperor Liang knew that the method of drying salt proposed by Li Ziyu had already achieved initial results in the coastal area. The sea area is so wide that the sea salt is inexhaustible. It should also be strengthened. This is really where the money has been arranged before it enters the treasury.

Back in front of him, Liang Dilong was overjoyed, and with a wave of his hand, court officials could go to Daliang Commercial Bank to get a set of toiletries with relevant credentials, and there was a lot of praise.

You must know that hair cleansing cream is the hottest thing in commercial shops these days. There is only a limited supply every day, and you can’t buy it if you go late. This is much more beneficial than directly rewarding monthly salary.

When Li Ziyu found out, he only felt that the emperor was worthy of being a successful politician, who knew people's hearts well, and conquered people's hearts without spending money.

But these are trivial matters for Li Ziyu, and it is another holiday. Li Ziyu plans to take his confinement wife to the countryside for a while. They have been married for more than a year, and they have only been to the hot spring Zhuangzi twice. It's a pity that such a good place has been idle for so long, but before going out, he must settle his son well.

At the full moon banquet before, A Chi officially made his appearance, and the Hou Mansion officially announced to the world that they have a successor to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and the gifts from the visitors directly filled a warehouse.

That day, Marquis Wei was so drunk that all the maids and wives in the house got two extra months of monthly money, which shows how much the Hou's house attaches great importance to this young master.

However, A Chi, who has received much attention, was abandoned by his father today. Li Ziyu packed the child's things early in the morning and sent the nanny to the main room together. Happy.

Li Ziyu looked at the smiling father-in-law and mother-in-law and said: "Lele has been bored in the house all year, and now he can go out with great difficulty. Today, my son-in-law will accompany him to the Zhuangzi to relax. Achi will ask his father-in-law and mother-in-law."

My son was really bored this year, so he should go out to play, and his son-in-law is really caring.Achi was mellow and cute, Wen Siyu readily agreed.

But what the son-in-law said next made the corners of the couple's mouths twitch uncontrollably.

"By the way, Ah Chi can eat and pull food now. Be careful when taking care of my father-in-law and mother-in-law. This month has ruined three of my outer clothes."

Listen to what it is called!That's normal for kids, isn't it?Seeing his disgusted face, this father is really, really incompetent.

After the annoying son-in-law left, the couple looked at the cute boy, and their hearts were full of tenderness. This little guy was so sweet and soft, how could the father justly dislike him!

When Lizi Yufufu was enjoying the world of the two, the future heir of the Hou Mansion proved with practical actions that he was a little treasure full of flavor levels. As for how his grandparents felt in their hearts, I don’t know.

The carriage staggered all the way and finally left the city. It was a large market today.In fact, since the shop in the household department was rented out, there has been a constant flow of people here, but there are more people coming here on Saturdays, and it seems to have become a bazaar.

Li Ziyu opened the curtain and watched the situation outside with his wife. The road here has been widened to allow four carriages to ride side by side.So although there are many people, it is not crowded, and soldiers with weapons will come and go to patrol.

The road is paved with cement and is very smooth.At first, the common people didn't even dare to walk on it when they saw the smooth and smooth road.

There is everyone's spontaneous maintenance, so the road maintenance is also very good, and there are special people responsible for cleaning every day.

This was the first time Wei Kangle saw this market after its completion. He found that not only ordinary merchants but also officials and scholars came here.

Thinking about it, there are not many places to go on weekdays. It is lively and you can buy a lot of good things here. Those official wives and ladies like expensive things, but the cheap and good things are also very popular. .

There is a saying: the landlord's family has no surplus food!Even their Hou Mansion has rented a shop here, which is their first opportunity. It can be imagined how popular the shop is, especially the location with a good location, it really has to be robbed to rent.

Li Ziyu introduced the situation here from time to time, and saw that the seller of candied haws bought a bunch, and the two shared the food. The sweet and sour taste was really sweet to the bottom of people's hearts.

At this time, Li Ziyu saw a man passing by on a horse, followed by a few soldiers in government uniforms, and muttered: Why does he look like Lord Geng.

Unexpectedly, the man's ears were very sharp. After hearing the sound, he controlled the horse in front of him. Looking back, Li Ziyu found that it was indeed Geng Lin, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry.

Geng Lin was very happy to see him, and when Li Ziyu's chariot approached, he started talking through the window, saw Wei Kangle inside, and greeted him first: "This is Mrs. Li, right? Let me borrow a few words from your husband."

Geng Lin was forty and five years old this year, which was the prime of life for an official. He knew a little about Li Ziyu, a subordinate who was not considered a subordinate.

That's right, Li Ziyu has been promoted again now, and he really has the qualifications to participate in the court meeting, although he doesn't want to participate, so every time the court meeting he can only comfort himself and say that it is just an adjustment, look at those big bosses. It's also interesting to quarrel and argue with posture.

Speaking of Li Ziyu's fear of guilt, it really began to spread since he entered the Ministry of Industry.The Ministry of Industry will also organize a team building after the bonus is issued, but Li Ziyu has never participated in it.

Everyone privately guessed that Mrs. Li must be too strict, and there was even a rumor that Mrs. Li was turned away once she came home late. I just want to tell you, but in fact, I didn't plan to take him with me at all.

Although Wei Kangle felt that Mr. Geng was speaking strangely, he didn't care, and said directly, "Mr. Geng, please go ahead."

Li Ziyu held his daughter-in-law's hand in the palm of his hand and gently kneaded it twice to comfort him. Then he looked out of the window, gestured to the people behind him with his eyes, and asked, "Why are you so busy with official business today? gone."

Speaking of this matter, Mr. Geng couldn't help showing a bit of excitement on his face, "Qianhong, the coal you mentioned should have been found, it's in the front guard, let's go and have a look."

Although he was also very annoyed that he had to go on business on the holiday, but as long as he thought of the news from the patrol newspaper, who cared whether he wanted to rest or not.If you happen to meet the right master, let him follow the palm of your hand.

Li Ziyu felt a bit bitter when he heard Mr. Geng's words. He didn't care about Xiu Mu, but he cared about him. He planned this trip a long time ago, but he really couldn't refuse it. Besides, he couldn't delay it if he took a look along the way. What.

Wei Kangle said from the side at this time: "But the black stone you mentioned that can be ignited for warmth?"

Li Ziyu was also interested in seeing his daughter-in-law, and his face immediately changed from cloudy to sunny.Although the change in his demeanor is not very obvious, but Geng Lin has always had sharp eyes and ears, and he can see clearly, and he can't help but feel a little funny in his heart. Of course he knows that the rumor of internal fear is just a rumor, but this young man loves Mrs. Zhong But it is true.

It's just that Mrs. Li has a good family background, outstanding appearance, and the two have similar temperaments. It is normal for Mrs. Li to admire and love her a lot.

The carriage drove straight to the edge of the market, and stopped in front of a temporary guardhouse where patrolling soldiers were resting. The guards inside hurriedly came out to greet him when they heard the movement, and clapped their hands and said, "My lords have worked hard, that man was invited inside by us. Please come in and talk."

The guard was very thoughtful, and Li Ziyu helped his daughter-in-law down regardless of whether it was suitable or not, but the guard and Master Geng didn't say anything.

The guard said: "Li Qian, I am in charge of patrolling outside the city this month. I saw Wang Dongping, a citizen of Langya County, bring a cart of black stones in the market today. The little official in charge of booth registration reported it to me and asked about it. Later, I found that it was indeed similar to the description in the previous book of treasures, so I didn’t dare to be arbitrary, so I bothered my lord to come and have a look.” While speaking, several people had already arrived in the courtyard.

The cart of black stones was in the courtyard. Li Ziyu knew it was indeed coal just by looking at it. He nodded to Mr. Geng who was looking at him. There is also a smile on his face, and he has made a great contribution this time.

The Hundred Treasures Book was drawn by the Ministry of Industry, which included some plants and minerals that are beneficial to the country and the people. After sorting out, they were printed in large quantities. The emperor ordered that each of the court officials must have a copy, and ordinary government soldiers should have one copy per team. The book, once the things recorded in it are found, the imperial court will definitely reward him, so the little official can respond so quickly.

The guardhouse here was also newly built a few months ago, so although it was simple, it was clean. Wang Dongping was waiting in the side hall right now.

Seeing the costumes of the people, he made a big salute, and after getting up, he explained clearly the location of the black stone and the process of discovery without the need for a few people to urge and ask.

Li Ziyu saw that Wang Dongping was tall and strong, his narration was very organized, his words and actions were crisp and neat, and he did not flinch like ordinary people when facing officers and soldiers, so he aroused his love for talents.

So he said: "The black stone you transported is very beneficial to the country and the people, but what do you want? Then we can ask for a favor for you."

Hearing this, the man immediately knelt down again, and said: "Although the villain has limited knowledge, he has been hunting in the mountains all year round, and his skills are quite nimble. He heard that there is a shooting battalion in the army. If you join the camp, you will die with no regrets."

Li Ziyu just listened to his words, and he knew that this was not a person with limited knowledge. As for the details of this person, others would worry about him, and the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion had a close relationship with the army, so it was not difficult for him , So he said: "The strong man really has extraordinary ambitions, I can introduce you for you, but whether you can get what you want in the end depends on your ability!"

Wang Dongping kowtowed again without mentioning it.

As soon as the matter here is over, Li Ziyu immediately took his wife and continued to Zhuangzi. No one can stop him and his wife from living a two-person world today!

Geng Lin looked at the carriage leaving without hesitation, shook his head and laughed, he didn't think he was old, but seeing Li Langzhong's behavior made him feel out of place.

However, people like Li Langzhong are in the minority after all, so he should stop looking for troubles. He wanted to understand these things and then Geng Lin got busy again.

Li Ziyu didn't know that his behavior made Geng Lin doubt his mentality. Now he hugged his wife, and the two of them snuggled up in the carriage. He was looking forward to this hot spring trip!
