And the person who found them before and wanted to take money to plot against him, it seems that he has to work harder to help him.

No one is willing to be coerced like this.

"Although my Wu family is not a wealthy family, I am willing to support one or two. My Wu family will contribute 800 taels of silver!"

"My Yin family offered 900 taels of silver!"

After thinking for a while, the person in charge who came spoke up one by one.

6 Chapter Twenty

These guys, all of them are nice to say, and the silver is about a thousand taels.

It must be a huge sum of money in the homes of ordinary people, but it is not enough to put it in front of a machine like Dynasty.

"I think you have misunderstood, I just want to do business with you."

Business?

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard it, and then they became interested.

Lu Chensheng asked them to come here before, and they were doing business together, and the business is still booming now.

"What business is your lord talking about?"

The head of the Li family stood up and asked.

"Building merchant ships and going overseas to develop trade, everyone knows that trade with the Western Regions can make money. Our silk, porcelain, and tea are transported there, and the price can be doubled several times.

If we can open up sea trade and trade with overseas countries, then the value of these things will not only double, it may be dozens of times, how much money can we make by going back and forth? "

Lu Chensheng began to bewitch the principals of these aristocratic families.

In fact, it can't be called bewitching, after all, what Lu Chensheng said is also true.

With the opening of overseas trade, more money will be made at that time. Commodities such as silk and porcelain are extremely profitable.

The group of people in charge were also stunned when they heard this.

"How can you be sure that you can make money like this, and how can you be sure that there are other countries overseas?"

"You should also know about overseas guests. Why don't you know about other overseas countries? What's more, even if there are no other countries, there are other islands and other lands. If there are no people, then they are all ours. It can be mined, and it can be cultivated. Those are all resources, and some people will dislike the small land?"

Lu Chensheng continued, "What's more, there are countless fish and seafood in the sea. These are resources. As long as you are willing to pay, the money you earn can be shared with your family."

Everyone was moved when they heard this.

Thinking about it carefully, what Lu Chensheng said really makes sense.

There are indeed overseas guests, but I haven't seen them bring anything. Most of them were destroyed by strong winds and waves, and then drifted over. They looked extremely poor.

"There are indeed overseas guests. Even if there is no gold, silver and jewelry, they are enough. We can use them to mine and farm, and these can make us money."

Lu Chensheng's current decree is to directly abolish the practice of enslaving the common people by the aristocratic families.

The common people can have their own fields to cultivate. In this way, it actually harms the interests of the aristocratic families.

However, Lu Chensheng's policy later benefited them again, and they had no choice but to ignore this benefit.

According to Lu Chensheng, the common people have money in their hands, and they can make money just now.

Just like the loom that Lu Chensheng gave them, their weaving has been greatly improved, and the quantity of cloth has begun to increase.

Now that the product is available, who will buy it?People will always be the bulk of consumption.

Lu Chensheng allowed the common people to have land to grow, and the tax was reduced. The common people became rich and had money to buy these commodities.

In this way, the money can still fall into the hands of the family in the end.

And the aristocratic family needs to hire the common people to work, and the common people make money again.

This is actually a virtuous circle. The aristocratic families made money, and the people would not be hungry, and they could put on clothes again.

Regarding the economic cycle, Lu Chensheng had told them about it, and the children of these aristocratic families were not fools, and they all understood this truth.

And just because they understand, they also know that manpower is actually a kind of resource.

The words are more euphemistic, saying that they are asking these people to help, but in fact they are regarded as slaves.

Why do they have such thoughts?I still got inspiration from Lu Chensheng.

Lu Chensheng has a large number of slaves under his command, all of whom are used to dig mines, dig canals, and do all kinds of heavy work.

They had analyzed some of Lu Chensheng's behavioral styles, and knew that since Lu Chensheng did it this way, they would definitely not object to them doing the same.

And right now, they are increasingly aware of the importance of human resources.

Because the people cannot be driven at will, they now need to pay a lot of money to make the people work, which makes them feel pain.

If someone works for him for free, how much money will he save?

Lu Chensheng didn't allow them to enslave the people of the country, but he didn't have that much compassion to the outside world.

This is a direct expression of the saying that people who are not of my race must have different hearts.

"My lord, I need to go back and discuss it later. This is an important matter, and I need to discuss it with my elders."

"My lord, please allow me to wait for some time for discussion."

The people in charge spoke one by one.

They are also very clear now that they really need to go back and discuss with their family members.

It's a big deal, so we have to be careful.

"Well, I hope you can convince your clansmen when you go back. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, you will have no chance."

Lu Chensheng nodded and allowed them to go back and discuss with the tribe.

The person in charge heard the words and nodded with an apologetic smile, then left in a hurry.

Du Rufang and the others looked dumbfounded. How could they do this even if they needed money?

From this point of view, the matter of the money seems to be with Lu Chensheng, and it is not a problem at all.

"Since my lord can recruit money in this way, why is he so cautious when spending money?"

Du Rufang was a little dissatisfied. He could tell that these people were already moved, and he also felt the huge benefits contained in it.

Instead, I also thought about it, and let my own people participate in it later.

It is not easy for him to participate as an official here, but it should be possible for people from his family to participate.

"Tsk, if I didn't have money, I wouldn't use this trick. I will share some of the benefits with them. Although I can tie them firmly to me, it's somewhat uncomfortable."

Lu Chensheng snorted dissatisfied.

There are some benefits that can benefit the country and the people after sharing them, so Lu Chensheng doesn't care.

But in this matter, he can eat it by himself.

It's a pity that there is no shortage of money right now, and Lu Chensheng has no choice but to call these people to participate together, which can speed up the development of the empire after all.

Lu Chensheng has always been urgent about this matter, and now he can only let them participate together.

Du Rufang opened his mouth slightly, probably not expecting to get such an answer.

"If your lord has other ways to raise money, why don't you raise more?"

Du Rufang thought for a while and said, anyway, it is for the development of the dynasty, so it would be great to raise more money.

Chapter 621 There Are Many Ways

Lu Chensheng flipped through the memorials in his hands, and his attention was no longer on these ministers.

"These are all backhands, and they can be kept for the time being. If you are short of money now, you have to use the method of lack of money. It is also necessary to let you feel how difficult it is to have an empty treasury."

Well, is this training them?

As soon as everyone listened to the words, they figured out a little meaning.

Looking at the situation, it seems that the adults really have other ways to get a lot of money, and they are not violent.

Thinking of this situation, everyone was slightly taken aback.

They all felt a little flustered about the financial deficit, but Lu Chensheng didn't seem to worry too much.

Seeing that there was nothing of their own to do here, the ministers all walked outside.

After a group of people had left the gate, Wang Tianxun looked back and said.

"Master Du, do you think there is any other way for you to get money?"

Wang Tianxun was a little curious. To be honest, he was also thinking about what Lu Chensheng would do to get so much money.

"I don't know. If I knew, I wouldn't worry about the money."

Du Rufang shook his head and said.

To be honest, he also wanted to know how this was done, how to raise silver taels without some extraordinary means.

Wang Tianxun felt a little helpless.

To say that the most intelligent among them, Du Rufang is definitely the top.

Even Du Rufang didn't know about it right now, and they probably couldn't think of it.

"My lord is still so unfathomable. We think it's a difficult thing, but it's not a problem at all when it comes to your lord."

Du Rufang sighed.

This blow is getting bigger and bigger, serving such a monarch is also a little frightening.

The monarch is too powerful. If they don't work hard, they feel that they can't hold their heads up in front of the monarch.

The rest of the people nodded as well. They also wanted to show off their abilities in Lu Chensheng. Today Lu Chensheng gave them one, making them understand their serious shortcomings.

"Let's go, go back to the school and ask the students of the adults. If you want to study, you still have to be on par with those students."

When the ministers heard this, their expressions couldn't help changing slightly, and then they looked like a bitter melon.

In terms of learning, they think that they are still knowledgeable.

However, they are students who have had contact with adults. Those students, those who have anything to do with them, may not be as good as you, but if you talk about other aspects, such as geography and geography, they are purely abused.

Even Daoist Yunsong of the Appreciation Division has confronted them about the stars in the sky.

Those students of the adults, they still know how scary each one is, and the knowledge they said is too difficult for them to understand.

However, Du Rufang said so, they thought about it, and felt that if they wanted to sit in this seat forever, they had better learn from it.

The ministers left, and Lu Chensheng continued to stay in the study to deal with things.

Yueyue took small steps, quietly poked her head outside the door, and then came behind Lu Chensheng with a smirk on her face.

"Father!"

Yueyue yelled suddenly, almost letting Lu Chensheng scribble in ink.

Lu Chensheng put down the ink pen, and hugged Yueyue to his lap with his backhand.

"You dare to scare father!"

Lu Chensheng pinched Yueyue's fat little face, and said threateningly with a straight face.

Yueyue didn't like Lu Chensheng at all, she just smiled happily, turned her head and saw that the table was full of memorials, and her face pouted slightly.

"Father doesn't play with Yueyue very much now!"

It was okay before, and I could still play with my father from time to time. My father would make a lot of fun things for her to play with, sing songs, and tell stories.

It's all right now, every day I see my father in this study, and I still run over when I see my father.

Lu Chensheng rubbed Yueyue's little head, "Father has a lot of things to do, so we have to deal with them well. If we don't deal with them well, many people will starve to death."

"What is starving to death?"

Yueyue didn't understand what this word meant, so she raised her head and looked at Lu Chensheng with big black eyes.

Lu Chensheng was taken aback for a moment, and then felt a bit of a headache, how should this be explained?

Would an explanation that was too straightforward make Yueyue feel bad? After all, she is still so young, but if she had to explain it more tactfully, how should she explain it?

All of a sudden, Lu Chensheng felt that it was extremely difficult to teach children.
