Chapter 59 Broker Fees(2/2)
However, as soon as he left Qinzhou, trouble came, and the prefectures and counties asked him to return the people.
In fact, the development of Qinzhou brought an opportunity to Lingnan, like sugarcane, because of the high demand, but Wang Hua missed the opportunity to plant when he came to Qinzhou and had to send people from Guangzhou to Jiaozhou and then to Guizhou, and signed an agreement with nearly 50 of the nearly 70 prefectures in Lingnan.
The closer you are to Qinzhou, the more you benefit, but it is also the place where the crowds are most affected. This problem is easier to solve. A large number of refugees travel south will fill this gap, and Guan Jian Wang Hua can't wait.
So Wang Hua had no choice but to take out the passenger fee, which was 4,000 guan per state. You can ask the Elliptical Man to go there, even if the people were removed from our Qinzhou, it doesn't matter. The prefectures that passed by the two roads and the prefectures that were seriously injured nearby compensated thirty-six states. Then Wang Hua waited until they took the money, and then said with great confidence that the money was enough to reach 100,000 people, and our Qinzhou had no 100,000 yuan in total.
The main reason is that they are afraid that these officials will make things difficult for them and encourage the civilians to work but not work hard. The same consumption is not done, and the project time is delayed. King Yan Luo can see the little ghosts difficult, and Wang Hua cannot catch each of them and beat them up. The money is to block their mouths.
As for whether the money was used to sheath the youngest or where it was used, Wang Hua didn't want to ask or care.
The money was sent out, and the project was progressing very smoothly and silently. It was very quiet. Although it cost a lot, Wang Hua liked it.
But it was not quiet for long, and there were still more than 30 states who did not pay a fee, so they sent envoys to ask Wang Hua for it. For example, it was almost a little bit related to the road and was not affected by the abortion. Wang Hua could only sigh, "It's so poor, it's 4,000 guan, and even the governor was confused."
But there are more poor people, and these officials have a good life compared to the common people. Wang Hua cannot help them.
No agreement.
The officials of these prefectures and counties were a little angry, so they submitted memorials again, impeaching Wang Hua for trafficking in persons, illegally bribery, colluding with barbarian chiefs, and losing the manners of officials.
After seeing the memorial, Li Xian was stunned for a moment and colluded with the barbarian chief. He knew that the disciple of the Xi family was a small judicial and military service. It was no big deal. Besides, Wang Hua specially wrote a memorial to explain the matter. But Wang Hua made a bribe? Is there any mistake? Even Wu Sansi dared to break his leg, so he was so good at bribing? In addition to giving something to himself and the queen, there is also one worthy of Wang Hua’s bribery? Li Xian asked several prime ministers.
Wei Yuanzhong stood up and told the story of taking the guests and paying for the guests.
What is the cost of bringing pear shoots?
After hearing this, Li Xian laughed hilariously. More than half of the ministers in the court laughed. This matter was a bit funny.
After laughing, Li Xian asked Zhu Yun, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue: "Zhu Qing, how many people are in Qinzhou now?"
"Your Majesty, about 40,000 people come, but 30,000 are foreign people."
There are so many people in Lingnan? No wonder the officials of various prefectures and counties complain.
Because Wang Hua left a good impression on Zhu Yun in the Ministry of Revenue, he said: "But Qinzhou is very short of people. I heard that the city wall was stopped because of shortage of people. However, this problem will be solved immediately. Nanfang Mansion reported that the first batch of refugees had arrived in Daozhou, and the Minister Wang actually sent people to welcome the refugees to Qinzhou to pick up the group of refugees. If it weren't for shortage of people, the Minister Wang wouldn't have welcomed that far away."
Welcoming so far is certainly related to shortage of people, but not the main reason. The main reason is that these refugees are short of food and clothing, and to the south is the vast Nanling Mountains. Wang Hua is worried that these refugees will die halfway through it. If it weren’t for the shortage of manpower, Wang Hua could have welcomed Yongzhou.
The refugees gave the court a headache, but for Wang Hua, it was a treasure.
If people are short of people, Qinzhou is short of people. The real lack of people is still thousands of miles away, and the lack of people is calculated in millions. If the route to the Americas is opened, this number will expand again. It is not calculated in millions, but in tens of millions.
After Zhu Yun finished speaking, he asked the guards standing on both sides to the Ministry of Revenue and brought him a report. Qinzhou was originally a Xiazhou, and there was no taxation except for local tribute. Of course, it would be a good thing not to post to the court. There is no taxation yet, but the salt farm and the Ship Department have income. It took just half a year to bring the court 300,000 in income. Zhu Yun said again: "The road is repaired, and there will be more ships to Qinzhou next year, and the income will be greater."
This does not include other taxes, but it will take sooner or later for Qinzhou to develop to this point. If every state in the Tang Dynasty had the current income of Qinzhou, it would have become more prosperous than the Song Dynasty.
But what he said was not at all.
It turns out that everyone is numb to this income. Think about Wang Hua’s ups and downs on food this time. Is this money still considered money?
But at this time, a guard outside came into the hall to report that Wang Hualian's concubine Li Hong asked to reveal Li Xian.
Li Xian was excited when he heard this and did not forget that once Wang Hua asked to follow him, the food plan would be decided. Wang Hua could not come to Chang'an, but Li Hong was pregnant for eight months and rushed to Chang'an from Luoyang. Needless to say, Wang Hua came to him. Moreover, the food is still hanging over 70 cents, and it seems that it will rise again. I immediately announced the severance of the court to see what good news Li Hong brought to him.
