Chapter 614: build a school
"Thank you, foster father. I gave this bottle of pills to my foster father. Taking it is good for your health and your hair. One bottle can make your white hair disappear."
"It's so amazing, then I'll eat it now."
…
This scene hurt Xiao Rushuang's eyes, she couldn't stand it, and walked in quickly.
Don't Xiao Hongyi and Tong Shuxuan care about Xiao Runing very much?
Nangong Anshan and Xiao Runing don't look very much alike, why do they treat her so well?
Tong Shuxuan was talking with a smile, when she saw Xiao Rushuang coming in, she instantly calmed down, "Rushuang is here."
Xiao Rushuang felt a pain in her heart, she was so happy to see her adoptive daughter, and her face changed when she saw her biological daughter.
She and Nangong Anshan, who is her own?
Xiao Rushuang held back the jealousy in her heart, and said, "I came to pay my respects to my father and mother, did I come at the wrong time?"
Xiao Hongyi said: "We and Ashan still have something to talk about, if you have nothing else to do, go back and rest first."
"…yes."
After Xiao Rushuang saluted, she retreated.
Nangong Anshan looked at Xiao Rushuang's back, but did not speak.
She read right just now, Xiao Rushuang had killing intent in her eyes.
Before she was in the mansion, she wanted to kill her with a poisonous snake, and now she probably wants to cut her into pieces.
She didn't care about it for the time being. Anyway, there are gods behind her, so there will be no danger.
If Xiao Rushuang is dishonest, then she can find something for her to do.
Time flies by, and it will be the end of the year in a blink of an eye.
At this time, the streets in the new urban area have all been built.
After all, Nangong Anshan secretly sold a lot of building materials, which accelerated their speed a lot.
At this time, above the court.
After the ministers reported their important matters, Dugu Li said: "Everyone, the streets in the new city have been built, and there are tens of thousands of shops in Blue Cloud City. Now people in the old city can go to The new city is doing business."
Since Blue Cloud City became an imperial city, it has attracted many people every day.
Now the old city is already somewhat overloaded, and a new city is urgently needed to relieve it.
Xiao Hongyi said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."
Other ministers also echoed: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty."
Dugu Li said: "Those shops were all built by the imperial court. According to the idea of the national teacher at the beginning, those shops belong to the imperial court. It is up to the imperial court to decide whether to rent or sell them. But tens of thousands of shops need to be managed. It is not an easy task, if it is sold, it will be done once and for all, and the court can get a lot of money at one time, but I think it is worthwhile not to rent it out."
"There are tens of thousands of shops, even if the average monthly rent for one shop is 30 taels of silver, and 10,000 shops, the total monthly rent is 300,000 taels of silver."
If there is a prodigal son among the descendants, the imperial court will have plenty of money for him to lose.
But if it is sold directly, the court will not be able to collect money every month in the future.
Nangong Anshan also came today, and said seriously: "Yes, Your Majesty, I think so too, but I am young and may not be concerned about all aspects. You should listen to the opinions of other ministers."
He Siguo said sternly: "Your Majesty, I also think it is more cost-effective to rent out. Although selling it at one time will indeed allow the court to get a lot of money quickly, but now that Qinglong Kingdom is peaceful and the people are safe, although there are many places to spend money, But it’s enough, it’s better to let the water flow in the shop.”
Nangong Jidao: "My ministers seconded the proposal, those shops should be operated in the name of the imperial court. The rent of several hundred thousand taels a month, and the imperial court has other income, which is enough for the imperial court at this time."
If it is not enough, there is his daughter.
Let her go to the mine again.
Nangong Anshan said: "In the name of the imperial court, you can fix the price. If you sell it to someone else, they will rent it out. If they see other people's business is good, they will raise the price. At that time, it will be the common people who will be bullied. The imperial court will manage it. Those businessmen can also do business for a long time, and even attract many businessmen from other places."
"In this way, the capital will be more prosperous, and the treasury will be able to collect more taxes."
Xiao Hongyi said: "The minister seconded the proposal."
Other ministers also spoke one after another:
"Second minister."
"Second minister."
"Second minister."
…
Dugu Li smiled and said: "Okay, then I will leave this matter to Da Sinong."
He Siguo said: "Yes, Your Majesty."
The ministers below were discussing in a low voice:
"With so many shops, it's not easy to collect the rent, right?"
"The owners of those shops are His Majesty. Who dares to default on His Majesty's money? Don't die? They will definitely take the initiative to pay the money."
"makes sense."
Dugu Li said: "Okay, if you have something to report, continue to report."
Nangong Anshan suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the world is now stable, and the high-yield food allows the people to no longer be hungry. Now that the problem of the stomach is solved, the problem of the brain must be solved."
Dugu Li asked curiously: "What does the national teacher mean?"
Could it be that the gods gave her some advice?
Nangong Anshan said: "Your Majesty, there are already tens of thousands of people working in my house in Liuye Village, where I live. Although there are many people, they have one thing in common, that is, most of them have never read any books. Literacy. Because of their illiteracy, they were often deceived when they went out to work, and some were even deceived into prostitution, which ruined the rest of their lives."
"Some people are illiterate and do not understand the law. Even if they do something illegal, they don't know it. They don't know that they have made a big mistake until they are approached by officials."
“Because they haven’t read the books, many people don’t even understand basic etiquette, justice, and shame.”
"Weichen read a sentence in the book before, reading can understand reason, understanding reason is self-cultivation, and self-cultivation is life."
"If you understand the principles of being a human being through reading, then no matter what you do, you will achieve results. Isn't this more beneficial to the development of a country?"
"The explosives prescriptions, movable type printing, various recipes, and various planting methods presented by Weichen before, although they are not clearly stated in the book, they are all created through reading."
"If everyone in our country can read, then they can create more novelty things in the future, which will benefit the country's development without any harm."
"All in all, letting the people read books will definitely make the country stronger."
The hall was suddenly silent.
Really worthy of being an envoy of God, to be able to say such words.
Dugu Li said: "Reading can be sensible, understanding is self-cultivation, and self-cultivation is being a person. Well, well said, it is really good, it is true. It is said that there are many troublemakers in poor mountains and rivers, but they don't want to be troublemakers. It’s because those who don’t know are fearless, and they don’t know anything. If everyone can read, there will be fewer troublesome people, the country will be more stable, and people’s lives will be more convenient.”
