Chapter 940 Fang Xing, You're Cheating Again!
Code words until 3:30 in the morning, this chapter is finally complete!
I can't open my eyelids, I'm going to sleep!
The so-called win-win situation is based on the necessity of cooperation and the hope of long-term cooperation.
As big as a country, as small as a few people, if they can take advantage of themselves, no one will share it with others.
Xu Jingchang had nothing to do, Fang Xing was in charge of planting sugar cane, and Huang Fu of Cochin would not buy into his account.
If Fang Xing is excluded, unless he personally goes to Cochin to sit in the township, Fang Xing will have a way to make him lose everything, not to mention that the royal family's view of him will undergo a fundamental change.
The steward said regretfully: "Uncle Xing didn't know what he was thinking all day, pay taxes and pay taxes, old slave, look, he will be rejected by His Majesty sooner or later!"
"Disgusted? It's still early!"
Xu Jingchang took a sip of sobering tea and sighed, "He is a smart man. As long as he walks in the court according to the current method, the Fang family's wealth will last at least a hundred years. Huh!"
"Pay taxes?"
Xu Jingchang remembered what Zhu Di asked when he came out that day, and couldn't help patting the bed and roaring again and again.
"Xinghe Boke knows about this?"
What does this mean?
So what if Fang Xing knows?
Xu Jingchang patted the bed and said, "That Fang Dehua, you've screwed me to death!"
The housekeeper thought that Xu Jingchang had drunk too much, so he said cautiously: "Master Guo, why don't we give it to him?"
The profit of icing sugar is not low, and it hurts to share it with others!
"shit!"
Xu Jingchang said angrily: "If you don't give it to him, the business will not be done soon, and there will be a few more big enemies. You are trying to cheat your country!"
"Pay taxes and pay taxes! Remember, you will keep an account of how much you sell, and go to the household department to pay taxes once a month."
The butler was confused, thinking that Xu Jingchang had drunk too much, "Master, our family has to pay taxes too?"
They are all grown by the Duke's own government, and they still have to pay taxes?
You said that you have to pay taxes to imitate the Four Seas Bazaar, then everyone has no objection, after all, it is a businessman's behavior.
But this is sugar cane!
"My lord, sugarcane is also farming, right?!"
Xu Jingchang waved his hand: "Fuck! No wonder Fang Xing didn't mention it that day, maybe he just waited there!"
The butler was startled, and said, "Master Guo, is the story of Marquis Fuyang repeating itself?"
"That's right! What the hell! Fang Dehua tricked me!"
Li Maofang's Caiju City was cheated by Fang Xing in this way, and then he went to pay taxes, becoming an unusual one among his relatives, and he was very depressed recently.
"Prepare the carriage, my father-in-law is going to Fang's house. If I don't seek justice, I will eat and drink at Fang's house and won't leave!"
...
Xu Jingchang arrived at Fang's house aggressively, and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Fang Xing, come out!"
Xiaodao's hand was a little itchy, and it was twitching on the right side of his body. Xin Laoqi gave him a look, and then asked: "Duke Guo has something to do with the master? Wait for someone to go in and report."
"No need! My country's lord will..."
The bell came out, sticking out his tongue slightly, staring at Xu Jingchang coldly.
"Stop it!"
After killing the thief, Ling Dang became even more famous, and now she belongs to the Fang family's town house dog, the dog king of Fang's village.
Xin Laoqi blocked the bell and signaled Xiaodao to report quickly.
When Fang Xing came out to meet him in person, Xu Jingchang had already hid in the front hall, not daring to look at the bell outside the door.
"Why is Duke Ding here? Welcome!"
Fang Xing smiled and cupped his hands in, Xu Jingchang jumped up and said, "Fang Xing, brother, how will I treat you?"
Seeing Xu Jingchang's aggression, Fang Xing smiled and said, "Mr. Dingguo has something to say, so what are you talking about?"
I don't have much friendship with you, if you don't think about the sugar cane planting in Jiaozhi, you won't even see people.
Facing Fang Xing's indifference, Xu Jingchang stagnated, and then said angrily, "Why do you have to pay taxes?"
What Zhu Di said that day meant: Since you asked Fang Xing, what did he say about paying taxes?
Fang Xing pointed to the table,
If there is a maid, go make tea.
"You have to pay early and late. The later you pay, the bigger the knot in your Majesty's heart. Which one do you want to choose?"
Xu Jingchang pondered and said, "You mean... Your Majesty intends to clean up the relatives? But if the tax is paid, how can I hang around in the circle of relatives?"
Fang Xing shook his head: "I didn't say that, but as a relative of the state, do you dare to ask, is Dingguo Mansion planning to form a group with the relatives and fight against His Majesty?"
"Nothing!"
Xu Jingchang recalled what had happened to Xu Qin, the Duke of Wei, and hastily denied it: "It's just a play on the occasion. Of course, the whole family of Duke Dingguo is following the lead of His Majesty."
Fang Xing said with a smile: "Then why are you so angry? Could it be that Duke Dingguo really lacks the money to pay taxes? Then I will help you out."
"Where is it! Brother still has some money."
Xu Jingchang was terrified by the meaning of Fang Xing's words, so he didn't dare to argue with Zhu Dixu.
Fang Xing sent Xu Jingchang away with a smile, and came back to reconcile Xie Jin and sighed: "All the relatives have become businessmen. They only know how to make money and keep their titles. This Ming Dynasty is full of holes!"
Xie Jin is comfortable in this year, and said with a flushed face: "Those people just got the benefits, they just want more, and they can continue to get the benefits from generation to generation. They are reluctant to part with this piece of fat!"
Xie Zhenliang was by his side, and upon hearing the words, he said: "Flowing water does not rot, and the nobles and relatives live on top for generations. After a long time, they can't ride a horse or lift a knife. This kind of people control the Ming army, and the future is worrisome!"
Fang Xing smiled: "No matter how worrisome it is, you can't let the literati control it!"
Xie Zhenliang was stunned and wanted to refute, but Xie Jin said: "It is not advisable to use literature to control military affairs. The former Song Dynasty is an example. At present, firearms are powerful. As long as the guards in various places are controlled in the future and the training of frontier fortresses is strengthened, they will be prosperous in the future." decline."
Fang Xing smiled, remembering that Xie Zhenliang would teach in the academy in the future, so he said something related.
"War is a manifestation of political will. Civil officials propose goals, military commanders analyze the goals, and then the two sides work together to determine whether to attack or not."
This was the first time Xie Zhenliang heard this kind of statement. He clasped his hands together, frowned slightly, and listened carefully to Fang Xing's completely different explanation from the previous gentlemen.
"Don't take the old master's words as a panacea. While war will bring destruction, it will also bring benefits. Da Ming needs benefits, and needs continuous progress. Once it stops, it will be the beginning of self-destruction."
Seeing that Xie Zhenliang was a little disapproving, Fang Xing said: "During the Hongwu period, Ming was invincible. In the Yongle period, it has actually shown signs of fatigue. Under the connivance of all parties, the army has long since failed. Your Majesty knows this best, so every time The Northern Expedition has to work hard, why?"
This is an exam question, Xie Zhenliang thought for a while: "Brother Fang, I think it's because I'm still not sure, so I have to play more and less."
"Well! You can go and find out how Daming's army fell, and what role those people played in it."
Xie Jin stroked his beard, nodded and said, "Dehua did a good job on this topic, and he can also do it for the students of the academy, and his grandson will do it too!"
Fang Xing said with a smile: "The grandson should have some clues, but he is a grandson after all, it's best to figure it out on your own, so that the impression is deep, and you can think about the solution in the process."
If Zhu Zhanji wants to become an outstanding emperor, he must have an understanding of Daming's family background, so that he can govern calmly without being fooled by others.
Xie Jin said leisurely: "The crown prince should not grow up in the hands of women in the deep palace, it will be a disaster for Ming Dynasty."
Fang Xing said thoughtfully, "But it's a feast for civil servants."
