Kunning Palace.
The emperor and empress sat on the throne together and chatted. Wu Nian was wearing a dragon robe, but he was drinking wild mountain tea from Beishan Castle.
There are many expensive tea palaces.
But he loved this wild camellia tea.
"Your Majesty. This is sent by someone from the Chief Assistant." A eunuch came in from outside, holding a piece of paper in his hand.
Wu Nian's expression changed, and he handed the tea cup to Liu Xiang. He reached for the fold and looked at it, his eyes focused, and then he sighed.
Liu Xiang was a little curious, so she handed the tea cup to the palace maid, stretched out her hand to grab it, and took the fold, and then her eyes widened.
"so much?"
Xiangguo Temple.
No.
Surrounding Xiangguo Temple, a large number of people were killed.
For example, a relative of a certain monk, the Yanhua Temple under Xiangguo Temple, etc.
More than 320,000 acres of land were seized.
These acres are scattered in various areas of Hebei.
Other properties, such as houses, shops, gold, silver, and utensils given to Xiangguo Temple by previous dynasties, etc., were calculated.
There are about more than four million taels.
A Xiangguo Temple has more acres of land than the royal family.
Wu Nian's internal funds before this were only seven to eight million taels.
It is said that the Cao family in Shanxi is as rich as any other country.
Put it in front of Xiangguo Temple, it is nothing but a big witch.
Tianjin’s Wang Wanwan is a small shrimp.
"This is just a Xiangguo Temple. There are countless temples and Taoist temples in Hebei, let alone the entire Huaxia region."
"The Chu State's annual treasury income is only 25 million taels."
"They confiscated all the temples and Taoist temples in China, and the money gained may be worth the three to five years of Chu State's income."
"Ordinary people are afraid that monks and Taoists will not have enough to eat and will not be able to serve Buddha and gods well. Don't you know that they live a much better life than ordinary people?"
Wu Nian sneered. After a moment he stood up and stretched.
"Although it's disgusting, this bite really made me full."
"Before, the state treasury and internal funds spent money to buy grain and raise the price of food. Not only has it all come back, but the money from the state treasury has also increased dramatically."
"The imperial court can spend more money to make fine armor and weapons. It can also improve the food for the soldiers."
"You can also allocate more money to Shanxi and let Shi Xian spend as much as he wants to manage the Yellow River and the Loess Plateau."
"Not to mention. Such a large number of acres must be taxed. It can bring a lot of tax revenue to the court every year in the future."
"I have plundered all the wealth and anointing of these monks and Taoists and returned it to the people."
"We also brought in a lot of people to open the border with Sanhan. Now the population in Sanhan is getting denser. The number of people is almost the same as during the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties. But most of them are Han people."
"The Slavs want to invade the Three Han Dynasties, but it will be difficult for them to reach the sky."
"happy."
After Wu Nian finished speaking, he laughed again. Knew it. No matter what business you are doing, it will not happen as quickly as confiscating your family and exterminating your family.
During this period, the glass business made a lot of money.
But there are not so many.
He doesn't hate wealthy people, only those who abide by the rules.
All safe and sound.
As long as you take advantage of people from the outside world, or from temples or Taoist temples, you will not end well.
Commonly known as the big dog owner.
Kill the big dog owners and make the country rich.
Liu Xiang was not interested in important court affairs, but seeing Wu Nian being happy, he kept agreeing.
"Brother is right."
Time flies.
Winter is over and spring is coming.
Although it is spring, it is not much different from winter. Bitingly cold.
All morning. Wu Nian and all the concubines, including the queen, left the palace together, and under the protection of countless soldiers and horses, came to the imperial village outside the city.
Pick cucumbers.
These days, if you want to eat cucumbers, you have to wait until summer.
The eunuch in charge of the palace opened the door of the greenhouse. Wu Nian entered the greenhouse with his wives and concubines.
The cucumbers are ripe.
"Brother. It's really a cucumber." Liu Xiang's eyes widened, she grabbed Wu Nian's arm with both hands and said dumbfounded.
She had heard about it a long time ago, but she couldn't believe it without seeing the real thing.
Now I believe it.
The others were not much better, they were all dumbfounded.
Wu Nian's wives and concubines are not bad in appearance. For a moment, it was so beautiful.
Wu Nian smiled and said, "It's cucumbers. From now on, our family won't have to wait until winter to eat pickles, prunes, and pickled radishes. There are fresh vegetables to eat."
"Not to mention anything else. Eat fresh food, good health, and good for longevity."
Although the pickled vegetables are quite delicious.
But after all, nutrients are lost.
Fresh ones are good.
The wives and concubines were very happy and picked cucumbers with Wu Nian. Then they returned to the palace and washed the cucumbers with clean water.
This thing is delicious even if you eat it directly.
It's also delicious with salt.
Wu Nian sat down with his wives and concubines and enjoyed their meal. I ate fresh cucumbers, and there are many vegetables in this imperial village.
Noon. Wu Nian and his wife and concubines ate in the palace, where they had enough fresh vegetables.
The wives and concubines all have great appetites.
After eating, Wu Nian set off with his wives and concubines back to the palace. after. The royal palace, princes' palaces, and court ministers all have fresh vegetables available in winter and early spring.
at the same time.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs opened a royal store specializing in vegetables next to the glass shop with great fanfare.
It's very expensive to sell.
Once the knife is sharpened, it is ready to kill the big players.
Speaking of which, the big families in the Han Dynasty had a hard time.
Wu Nian, a wealthy businessman who engaged in illegal activities and engaged in illegal activities, had his house confiscated directly.
A serious and law-abiding businessman was crushed by Wu Nian in various ways.
Glass.
vegetable.
morning. capital. Liu Bo's house in the east of the city.
The Liu family is not a small family, but it is not a big family either. He lives in a large house with three entrances, and is served by twenty or thirty domestic slaves and maids. Outside the city, there are three hundred acres of fertile land passed down from his ancestors.
Life was pretty comfortable.
Liu Bo went out early in the morning. Liu's wife directed the maidservants to clean the courtyard. She has good looks and likes to dress up. From time to time she takes out a small mirror and looks at her face.
The small mirror is made of glass, and the exquisite frame is made by top carpenters to prevent the little hands of the young lady and madam from being cut.
Liu's wife looked at her face in the small mirror and couldn't help feeling pleased.
This mirror is really useful, but a bit expensive.
"Da da da."
suddenly. There was a sound of rapid footsteps. Liu's wife looked up and saw her own knife-killer coming in with a cucumber in his hand.
"Cucumber?" Mrs. Liu's eyes widened. Am I dreaming?
"Madam, look what I got. Cucumbers. Have you never seen cucumbers in spring? I almost vomited after eating pickled radishes all winter."
Liu Bo came to his wife, held up the cucumbers proudly, and then asked his servants to clean them. The couple sat down on the porch and ate cucumbers one by one.
"Cucumbers are delicious, but a bit expensive."
"I want one or two pieces of silver."
Liu Bo said vaguely while chewing.
"Ah?!" Liu's wife was stunned again, and the cucumber in her hand seemed to be no longer fragrant.
One tael of silver?
This is robbery! ! ! !
Which black shop was opened by Sha Qian Dao?
