Chapter 301 Swallow the Two Characters
Not only the two of them, but Chuxue also sat up with a face full of g.
The rich don’t spend extravagantly and spend a lot of money. Where do the poor get a living? These initial words sound absurd, but when you think about it carefully, they make sense.
Ren Bo was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly, with anger in his eyes: "Your Majesty, this is nonsense and sophistry! The rich spend extravagance to support the common people. It's a nonsense! It makes some sense. But in this time of chaos in the cities of Yunlu in the east, it is the way to kill! You must know that the resources and manpower in the world are always limited. If you use more here, you will spend less there. At this time, Tianshan Mountain is surrounded by powerful enemies. It is time to practice the method of farming and warfare. We should be diligent, thrifty, and honest. All resources should be invested in the army! Just like the king, divert the power of the people. The people in the country, all How many people are willing to serve in the army if they go to work for those wealthy merchants?"
Obviously angry, Ren Bo's beard was trembling slightly: "Your Majesty is just happy and extravagant, why do you want to make such a disturbing statement? You know that if this statement is spread, it will definitely shake the foundation of the country? Domestic nobles Merchants, please follow suit. The simple and simple style left by the ancestors will surely disappear!"
This time it was Zong Shou's turn to be dumb, he was suffocated inexplicably by this series of questioning. He wondered that this old man was really talented, and his excuses were so quickly dismantled.
He only knows that the countries in later generations not only advocate the circulation of money, but also encourage people to consume. I have forgotten the special circumstances of this era,
These words are well-founded and very reasonable.
However, seeing Ren Bo's upright appearance, Zong Shou felt uneasy for some reason, and did not want to be refuted by the other party.
Immediately, his eyes narrowed slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind, even activating the Dayi Luo Tianming method, and deduced and calculated rapidly.
Beside Chuxue, she already let out a sigh of relief. Thinking that the prime minister is still smart, she just said, how could this extravagance and waste become reasonable? The prince is indeed talking nonsense and fooling people. Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Zong Shou and chuckled again: "Prime Minister, don't be angry! Zong Shou only has one thing to ask the Prime Minister. How much food can be produced in this land?" While talking, he picked up a bear's paw and gnawed on it, and the food was full of oil.
That Ren Bo raised his eyebrows, wishing to overthrow the case, he could only force himself to answer: "Last year, one mu of grain was four shi, and this year has not yet reached the harvest time. But according to my estimation, there should be four About two buckets of stone"
Speaking of this sentence, Ren Bo's gaze shrank slightly, as if he had thought of something, showing a look of contemplation.
"Four stones, four stones and two buckets, that's about the same number. I still remember the year before last, when one mu harvested grain, it was three stones and eight buckets, right? It's not just Qiantianshan City, but also other countries, isn't it?"
Seeing that Ren Bo did not deny it, Zong Shou nodded his head: "Then with the knowledge of the prime minister, we must know the reason why cheap grain hurts farmers."
"Naturally! The more rice grain there is, the supply exceeds demand, and the price of grain will naturally go down,"
Ren Bo's expression was already a bit dignified and self-ashamed.
The grain production of Qiantian Mountain is gradually increasing, why hasn't he noticed this phenomenon? Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise it would have caused a catastrophe.
When Xuan Yunlan thought about it carefully, she couldn't help being terrified.
"If the grain cannot be sold, then the oil, salt, clothing, pottery, etc. will naturally not be easily exchanged. And the farmers in the world do not learn martial arts and are unprepared for a while. Most of them will have nowhere to make a living. Prime Minister, tell me, right? This reason?"
In the entire dormitory, there was a moment of silence. Zong Shou secretly laughed, and continued to ask: "Prime Minister, do you know the approximate number of beasts in the field outside the city in recent years? Is it decreasing year by year, or is it increasing?"
Ren Bo's face was ashen, but he couldn't help answering this sentence: "Ren Bo doesn't know the exact number. I only know that since this year, there have been more than 4,300 incidents of spirit beasts hurting people, which is three times that of previous years. .”
Zong Shou Yile, knowing himself, has completely grasped the situation: "Then how much of what Gu eats at this moment comes from fertile fields, and how much comes from wilderness? How much of the utensils used in this matter come from those Spirit beast?"
Ren Bo took a look and saw that most of the table was covered with wild game, and the rest was also produced in the sea of clouds.
Although the decoration here is luxurious, there are indeed not small parts that are taken from the beasts.
The same is true for the constant temperature magic circle.
"Businessmen in the world have nowhere to use after they get money, and most of them can only be sealed and stored. But if those beast crystals and spirit stones can't be circulated outside, how can we force me to be the people of heaven? How can I strengthen my city's martial arts?"
When he heard this, Ren Bo had already understood Zong Shou's meaning, and he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat, speechless.
Zong Shou smiled coldly, and asked again decisively: "Since that's the case, then what's wrong with Gu?"
Ren Bo's whole person, with a fluctuating expression, stood still in the same place.
He didn't speak for a long time, but when he spoke again, he bent down deeply and said.
"Minister Ren Bo understands! In the future, it is time to encourage hunters and reduce farmers to wipe out wild beasts. Your Majesty sees thousands of miles, and you can count on one stroke. It is my fault. I was rude just now, and please forgive me!" "
After finishing speaking, he bowed again. With an extremely gloomy expression, he withdrew from Zong Shou's bedroom. For a moment, he forgot the purpose of his visit to Zongshou this time, and left in such a distraught manner.
Looking at Ren Bo's back, Zong Shou's original complacency suddenly disappeared completely. In the depths of my heart, on the contrary, I felt a bit of guilt. This time, I really did a little too much. He is already in his decades, and he seems to have a milder temperament. But this competitive temperament has not changed at all.
And thoughtfully, he murmured slightly: "This Ren Bo, if he meets a wise king, he will definitely become a wise man."
Originally, there was no other choice but to be used by the makeshift. At this time, it seems that this person really has the talent for governing the country.
His words were inaudible, but Chu Xue was beside him, but he heard them clearly. Immediately, he looked suspicious and said: "Prime Minister Ren is of course a virtuous prime minister. Since the first emperor invited him back, we have a much better life as the people of all ethnic groups in Tianshan City. The young master must also be a wise monarch. Those who never praise others, even the first king, have been scolded by him. But since the young master took the throne, Xueer has heard the prime minister praise you twice."
Zong Shou couldn't help laughing, thinking that he had nothing to do with any Mingjun, but was just bullying others by relying on his ten thousand years more knowledge than others.
Xuan Yunlan also sighed and said: "Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. Yunlan used to only know that people in the world are simpler and always better. But she never thought that spending money can also improve people's livelihood one"
Just as Zong Shou was feeling flustered again. At this moment, Ruo Shui gave a 'poof' smile, and said, "I just saw Jun, and I blinked my eyes several times."
Xuan Yunlan was at a loss when she heard the words, but after a while, Chuxue suddenly realized, she became angry for a while, and the reverence in her eyes also turned into contempt.
Knowing that Zong Shou has the habit of blinking whenever he tells a lie.
In other words, when you invited someone to decorate the palace and called for a banquet, your majesty probably didn't think too much about it. It turned out that those words that made Ren Bo retreat in shame were still fooling people. It's really shameless to say that the righteousness is awe-inspiring!
Zong Shou's face has long been compared to the city wall, and he is not angry at this moment, nor does he blush, but smiles slightly, and doesn't care.
After enjoying a sumptuous feast, Zong Shou took out dozens of talisman papers, together with prepared spirit ink, from the small Qiankun bag one by one. A rare top grade.
However, these things were not gifted by Wei Xu, but purchased by himself.
His senior brother obviously knew about his wealth, so he would not give him any of these things. Zong Shou had no choice but to buy it from Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan himself. The latter was fine, but the former was the lion who opened his mouth and took a hard blow from him. So there was another grievance between the two.
For this matter, Zong Shou also slandered Wei Xu for a whole day.
Su Rong meditated, Zong Shou suddenly swiped his pen.
On the talisman paper, write down a character 'Tun' and a character 'Jing'.
Recently, his martial arts cultivation base has improved rapidly thanks to Wei Xu's help. On the contrary, it was the power of the spiritual law that stagnated a little.
Even though he practiced a tenth-level holy spirit-level meditation technique, he still couldn't change his mind.
If you don't understand these two words, you won't be able to make him cultivate and get a real improvement. Before Wei Xu left, he seemed to know what he meant. Among the spiritual law books left behind, except for the Great Yiluo Sky Meditation Method, and dozens of secret techniques of the Cangsheng Dao.
Most of the rest are related to the character 'Tun' and the character 'Jing'.
However, there are very few spiritual masters in this world who choose to gather these two characters. Zong Shou also read some, but it was not of great help to him.
The recent enlightenment seems to have reached a dead end, and it has been a long time without a new solution.
Fortunately, at this moment, he has a new choice.
Mudi drew his sword and took the broken Jiulin sword in his hand. After hesitating for a few breaths, Zong Shou already had a decisive look on his face.
"Xiao Jin, whether your master can advance this time depends on you!"
As soon as the thought came up, Zong Shou's left arm suddenly flowed down from a mass of silvery white with light golden threads of 'liquid'.
In just a blink of an eye, the Jiulin Sword was completely wrapped. Turn the golden sword body into a silvery white color.
And at the moment when this layer of silver film completely covered the sword, Xiao Jin began to devour it!
First, a special liquid is secreted to decompose the spirit gold one after another, and then it is directly absorbed into the body. Some metals that are useless to it are directly purified and eliminated. ! .
