Chapter 2882 Can You Still Sit Still?

"Hmph, it's a pity it's not now." The Emperor Taishang didn't refute before, but now because of Lin Ruhai, his plan was shattered, so Lin Ruhai was not pleasing to the eye.

If Lin Ruhai couldn't give him a good explanation, a statement that he could accept, this Lin Ruhai would have to die.

The emperor's face was embarrassed, in a sense, he pryed his father's corner.

But this is all for the sake of Dazhou's Jiangshan community, I hope the father and emperor can understand.

At this time, Bai Yixiu respectfully saluted the Taishanghuang and the emperor of Dazhou, "Emperor Taishang, Your Majesty, no matter when, Weichen is a good minister of Dazhou. From beginning to end, Weichen has been practicing what he once said in front of Taishanghuang. In a word, loyal to the emperor, loyal to Da Zhou. These years, it is also done like this."

When the emperor heard this, he felt relieved.

That's right, ministers should be loyal to the emperor. The emperor is too high, so don't manage the government. The emperor can completely manage the Great Zhou court.

If all the ministers were like Lin Ruhai, he wouldn't have to be so tired as an emperor.

The Emperor Taishang was so blocked by Bai Yixiu's words that he almost didn't come up, and glanced at Bai Yixiu, "You are so eloquent, just because you handed over 18 million taels of silver to the treasury this year, you can't let me calm down. Lin Ruhai, you must say something about me. The reason not to kill you."

At this time, Bai Yixiu took out another memorial from his arms, "Emperor Taishang, you can understand the painstaking efforts of Weichen after reading the statistics of Weichen in Jiangnan over the years."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, wondering what Lin Ruhai gave the Emperor Taishang.

The Emperor Taishang didn't know why, so he asked the servant to bring it over to see how this Lin Ruhai was so eloquent.

It's just that when the Emperor Taishang saw the end from the beginning, his entire face turned black.

The emperor was also very nervous. What if his father wanted to cut Lin Ruhai down regardless?

On the contrary, Bai Yixiu was calm and calm. He didn't believe that Emperor Taishang saw that there were so many moths in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Not only was the wall of his own courtyard holed, but the roof was also lifted in half. Can he still sit?

The emperor looked at the black-faced Taishanghuang, and then looked at the calm and relaxed Lin Ruhai, confused, and became even more curious about the two pieces of paper in the hands of the Taishanghuang.

It's just that the emperor didn't tell him to go over there, and the emperor was embarrassed to go there.

In front of the Emperor Taishang, he couldn't ask Lin Ruhai directly, he was so anxious that he was about to smoke.

Just when the emperor couldn't sit still and wanted to ask aloud, the emperor's voice trembled slightly and asked, "Lin Ruhai, is what you said above true?"

Bai Yixiu chuckled lightly, calmly, and replied respectfully, "Jiangnan is prosperous in commerce and is very rich, and the court gets very little from it. The court forbids the sea, but the sea is so big and the coastline is so long, for the sake of huge profits, Breeds a lot of overseas fleets.

One tael of tea can be sold for ten taels or even dozens of taels outside. Because there is no government to uniformly manage the collection of taxes, all this money goes into the hands of those wealthy families.

In addition, because these things are sold abroad, they are not circulated in the country, and no tax is collected. Over and over again, this has a loss of tens of millions of taels of silver, which is only one year.

For example, the salt price mentioned by Hai is official, but because a salt merchant stores salt, the official store has no salt and can only buy salt from private stores, and the price of salt has risen. The price difference here goes into the hands of salt merchants. They eat meat, and the imperial court can't even eat a bone, so they can only drink some soup. "
