Just as he stood up, Zhang Yang said displeasedly: "What happened today? This is a wonderful New Year's Eve. Isn't everyone celebrating the New Year?"

"The DPRK and the Central Government are very busy with tax collection in various counties, so there is no way to talk about New Year's Eve."

Duke Zheng had already walked up to him.

Zhang Yang looked guilty.

Zheng Gong's implication is that it is not your fault that the court is so busy.

Everyone is aiming for production and development, and the national policies of the DPRK and China have not been implemented for a long time. Lishan cannot just watch.

Zhang Yang bowed and said, "Mr. Zheng, how are you doing lately?"

Wei Zheng's eyes fell on the iron materials, but he didn't speak yet.

Zhang Yang added: "Mr. Zheng is an elder. It should be the younger generation who comes to visit. How can we let Mr. Zheng come in person?"

"All these iron materials are used to cast cannons?"

"It was His Majesty's decree that Lishan be cast."

"I often advise Your Majesty not to be too persistent and not to put the cart before the horse."

"Is it because of the artillery?"

Wei Zheng nodded and said: "I didn't know it before, but I learned that Your Majesty ordered Cen Wenwen to send these iron materials today, so I came to take a look... We cannot rely solely on these for civil and military skills. We should serve the people and the country, and we must not go astray."

Zhang Yang put his hands behind his back and whispered: "Mr. Zheng, isn't it good for the Tang Dynasty to be powerful?"

Wei Zheng said: "Of course it's good."

"Only when the Tang Dynasty becomes stronger, there will be no need to reason with others or with the Turks. They will voluntarily surrender and obey the orders of the Tang Dynasty. In some respects, I don't want too many diplomatic matters of the Tang Dynasty to pass.

Solve it with reason."

"When you don't need to reason, you can just give the order, isn't it?"

Wei Zheng stared at the young man in front of him and said seriously: "Because of this, I am too obsessed with firearms. I am worried that your majesty will go astray. I heard that your majesty wants three thousand cannons to be cast in Lishan Mountain."

The emperor cannot rely too much on artillery, whether it is to run the army or govern the local area.

The Tang Dynasty needed civilized governance, and it also needed to intimidate all parties.

If the emperor is too obsessed with firearms, he will go astray and never return.

Zhang Yang replied: "Don't worry, Mr. Zheng, Lishan has always mastered the key technology of firearms. At least now the DPRK and China cannot cast firearms on a large scale. They still can't make springs, let alone the secret recipe."

Seeing that Mr. Zheng was still worried, Zhang Yang added: "It took Lishan nearly three years to cast a small spring. You can see how difficult it is to cast it. And everything in Lishan started from this small spring."

Qi Qi, no matter how small that thing is, as long as the spring cannot be cast in the middle, they will stay in place for a long, long time."

"I don't know anything about casting."

"The method of forging firearms has not yet been handed over to His Majesty, but the number of firearms His Majesty wants to make can only be decided by Lishan."

Zhang Yang paced back and forth and explained: "Three thousand artillery pieces are neither too much nor too little. Lishan has to stop the construction of the railway and first use it for half a year to create a rough prototype, and then it will take another three months.

In order to be fully completed, this time and again... more than half a year has passed."

"Of course, now that we have a new boiler, it may be faster. These three thousand artillery pieces are necessary. Your Majesty wants to use the artillery in the army or deploy it at various border crossings."

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice: "Don't indulge Your Majesty in Wangli Mountain. I will give you advice from time to time."

Zhang Yang bowed and said: "If Mr. Zheng is still not at ease, you can live in Lishan and supervise from Lishan in the future."

Wei Zheng did not agree, but nodded heavily.

Zhang Yang took the old man into the village and introduced him to the current situation of Lishan Mountain.

In Chang'an City, Cen Wenwen completed what His Majesty told him.

There were still many officials coming and going in Zhongshu Province. When they saw Zhongshu Zuo Cheng coming back, all the civil servants here saluted him one after another.

The desk is piled with various books, all of which are taxes from various places.

At the beginning, Zhang Yang coordinated the taxation of various places in Guanzhong. He served as Du Zhilang in Shangshu Province for one year. In that year, he had a thorough understanding of Guanzhong's productivity.

Cen Wen couldn't help but shake his head. Chao Zhong was always chasing Li Shan's footsteps, and he still felt like he couldn't catch up.

When you open the book brought from Lishan, you will see the population and production plan of the twelve counties of Chang'an.

Looking further down, we see the taxation strategy for production.

I didn't sleep all night last night. After eating at Lishan, I seemed even sleepier.

Cen Wenwen took out the small glass bottle, poured out some liquid and applied it on the tip of his nose and behind his ears.

While no one was paying attention, he quietly put the glass bottle away.

After applying the liquid, I felt it was nothing at first.

Just a moment later, I felt a slight pain, and a chill rushed straight to my forehead. I suddenly stood up, and my sleepiness was gone.

Sitting down again, Cen Wenwen read the book again. The content in the book is actually very simple. The main content is that workshops in the twelve counties need to be approved by the central government and the county government before they can be opened, and they are hosted by the county government and the local state government.

Production.

Holding the production license in the hands of the court, Cen Wenwen continued to read and explained the importance of safe production. The construction of the workshop required the labor of the villagers. The court should take the interests of the masses as the basis to allow the workshop to produce.

Healthy development in scale.

Cen Wenwen could not help but nod while stroking his beard. He had a very far-sighted view.

Even the business scope of the future workshop construction has been planned, so that the workshop will not be too complicated, and the cloth-producing workshop can only produce cloth.

A workshop cannot produce both cloth and ink, which will lead to chaotic management, uncomfortable accounting and taxation, and avoid manipulation by the workshop owner.

Cen Wenwen took out another small glass bottle, applied some medicinal solution, took a few deep breaths with his eyes wide open, and began to write.

A memorial of nearly a thousand words was written in one breath. Cen Wenwen found that he had not been in this state for a long time, writing it in one breath.

Thinking about this medicinal liquid again, I secretly sighed that Lishan was indeed a place that produced good things.

He placed the memorial in front of the Prime Minister's desk. Seeing that the reply was still being approved, it was not easy to disturb him, so he went back on his own.

Cen Wenwen beat his arms as he walked, took a deep breath that was vaguely cool from mint, and said slowly: "I can finally have a good sleep."

The establishment of a workshop requires permission from the local county government and is supervised by the state government, and the taxes received are also assessed by the state governments.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is a supplement to Cen Wenwen. It cannot be just production without supervision.

Just like Lishan, if you let it go... you'll end up having nothing to control.

Summarizing experience and deeply reflecting on past mistakes is what Cen Wenwen has learned from his many years of dealings with Lishan.

Half a month after New Year's Eve, the proclamation issued by the central government and the documents were sent to the counties in Chang'an one by one, and many officers and soldiers took the documents to various state capitals in the Tang Dynasty.

A wave of production revitalization blew in Guanzhong, and Lishan's letter to Guanzhong was mentioned again.

These national policies will be officially implemented after the end of Xiu Mu, that is, the beginning of the 15th year of Zhenguan.

This is a rare drastic move made by Tian Khan in Guanzhong. In the past, it was a big move to transform Wei Mansion into Zhe Chong Mansion.

Now, the imperial court has finally begun to restructure local state capitals.

Li Zhi has become very close to Pei Xingjian these days.

The twelve counties in Chang'an City were the first to take action, and Jingzhao Prefecture, which governs the twelve counties in Chang'an, was the first to take action.

Li Zhi was sitting in Jingzhao Mansion.

Pei Xingjian looked at the gift list and said angrily: "What do these powerful people think of me? They even gave me beautiful concubines and sent them back to a certain family!"

Niu Chao said quickly: "Here."

Li Zhi said worriedly: "Pei Fuyin, the landowners in the twelve counties of Chang'an City still account for the majority. They still control the farmers, and they will inevitably have contacts in the future."

Pei Xingjian said angrily: "But they dare to bribe me!"

"Even though it is hateful, these people used the pretext of visiting on New Year's Eve to give gifts. In addition to Pei Fuyin, officials from three provinces and six ministries also wanted to give gifts."

Pei Xingjian protested, "A certain family is at odds with them."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "Actually, there is a big difference between confiscating and not confiscating. What matters is the attitude of each county."

"What His Highness the King of Jin said is true."

Li Zhi, who was on the outside, saw clearly that Pei Xingjian's position was not easy to take, especially when Guanzhong was revitalizing production.

And Pei Xingjian was a man with no power and power, so it was not easy to command the twelve counties of Chang'an City.

"If Governor Pei gives instructions to each county, it will inevitably make people feel that he is bullying others with his power."

Pei Xingjian said loudly: "Today, a certain family invited an expert to help."

Li Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "There are quite a few experts who have extended a helping hand to Pei Fuyin."

It seems that Lishan Mountain is full of experts.

The visitor was none other than Shangguan Yi. He was not wearing an official robe today, but was wearing a thick cotton coat unique to Lishan. He walked into Jingzhao Mansion in a hurry.

"It's really cold today." Shangguan Yi said this as soon as he arrived.

"Brother Shangguan, please take a seat quickly. I'll go warm the wine right now."
