Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

This was a very common thing.    

In autumn, farmers earned money. Originally, it was enough to cover their expenses, but something suddenly happened at home, such as family illness, or preparing dowry or betrothal gifts. This money was not enough, and it would be difficult for them to buy seeds in the spring next year.    

Hence, at the beginning of the year, they needed to borrow money to buy seeds. Then, through a year of farming, they would pay off the harvest after the autumn harvest.    

But once they returned the money, they would not have any money left. They would have to borrow money in the next year.    

This cycle, coupled with the interest that kept rising, in the end, he could only sell the pot and sell the iron, and even sell the land that his ancestors had uploaded to him!    

Some people were just right. Every year, they would borrow money and pay it back. Next year, they would continue to borrow money, and once they did so, they would live their entire lives.    

As for the interest of the people borrowing, it was usually 50% of the year. In other words, if they borrowed money this year, they would have to pay back 500 yuan in the next year.    

This was already a normal situation.    

Now that Xiao Yun said 10% of the annual profit, to His Majesty, it was really a bit shocking.    

After all, this was a little too little!    

He even asked with some worry, "Isn't this... a little too little?"    

He had previously scolded Xiao Yun as a bad guy, but now he was worried that Xiao Yun was too kind and made things difficult for him.    

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you can rest assured that 10% is enough. Those wealthy families have high interest because they don't have much money. But Gold Hidden Pavilion is different. Your Majesty has seen the wealth of Gold Hidden Pavilion."    

"Yes..."    

His Majesty nodded vigorously.    

If the numbers on the pamphlet could suddenly increase by 10%... it would also be an incredible number!    

Xiao Yun continued, "In the future, Gold Hidden Pavilion will use this 10% interest to do things."    

His Majesty nodded again, but he felt that something was not right. He immediately asked, "10% is a lot, plus your second method. I'm afraid that it will be more than the annual tax of Great Qin. This money... What will happen? If it was only used for maintenance and construction, there should still be some left, right? What about the remaining parts?"    

Xiao Yun suddenly revealed a charming smile and reached out his hand to touch his nose. Then he smiled and said, "Your majesty, for the peasants to do so many things, they need some repayment. The remaining money is naturally the hard-earned money of the grasslanders."    

"What? "    

His Majesty was shocked.    

Tough money?    

The rest of the money had to go into Xiao Yun's pocket? !    

His Majesty took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to strangle Xiao Yun. He said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid it will only take one year for you to be as rich as an enemy country. If this continues, when Zhen doesn't have money to spend, he will borrow money from you? "    

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "It's all thanks to borrowing from the commoner. If the commoner borrowed money, it would definitely take the interest of the people. If His Majesty urgently needs money, he can naturally borrow money from the depository. Of course, you can't use this world as a safeguard. Otherwise, His Majesty can still take all the money away and borrow money from His Majesty. He could only use the name of the royal family to protect the treasure and the palace as a guarantee... The few palaces in the middle were also not allowed. They belong to the Great Qin."    

"You! Zhen wasn't talking about this to you!"    

His Majesty was furious.    

He waved his sleeve forcefully, calmed his heart, and carefully thought about it.    

After all, Xiao Yun had not earned any money yet. In fact, even if he really earned money one day, he still had ten thousand reasons to get the money from him!    

However, if he made it clear now that Xiao Yun had scruples and didn't work hard, the loss would outweigh the gain.    

Anyway, the money had to go into his own pocket. His Majesty decided to tolerate him for some time.    

Sighing, His Majesty said, "Since only Saint Xiao can do this, then you can do whatever you want. I don't care, but at the same time, you also need to do one thing for me."    

"How can a peasant help His Majesty with anything?"    

"Don't belittle yourself. This matter is very easy for you to do, but... don't investigate Imperial Tutor Zhao's matter."    

"Hmm?"    

Xiao Yun was stunned.    

Then he helplessly sighed and said, "At this point, even His Majesty doesn't want to touch him?"    

Your Majesty said, "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't."    

"Why not?"    

"Ah!"    

His Majesty laughed coldly. The aura of an emperor had finally shown itself.    

He said in a clear voice, "The positions of the three dukes are passed down from generations to tens of generations. They are deeply rooted. It's complicated. Although the Three Dukes seem to be fighting against each other openly and secretly, they were fighting each other fiercely every day... Hehe, that is all done for Zhen to see! "    

Xiao Yun was shocked. He knew about this kind of thing, but he did not expect that His Majesty also knew about it!    

His Majesty continued, "If Zhen really touched Zhao Wuji, let's not talk about the death of a rabbit or the sorrow of a fox, just these three families are actually on the same side. If they work together, Zhen really cannot do anything to them. Kid, do you think Great Qin Country is big?"    

"Of course it is."    

" Such a huge territory needs someone to manage it. Even if I have personally seen the officials in the Imperial Court... The ones who are personally rewarded are not my people. They are divided into three factions, one in the Cabinet and one in the Third Duke's faction. There was also a large portion of the poor who spoke of benevolence, morality, and reeking of the smell of books. If the three factions were to obstruct us from doing so, half of the scholars in the world would not work for Zhen... "    

He raises his head to look at Xiao Yun and squints his eyes and says," You are a person with ability, Zhen knows. But you are able to control such a large territory? From the national policy to the trivial matters in the countryside, there must be someone to manage them. Someone has to deal with it. I also know that the officials in this world are corrupt, but what can we do? People always say that it is better to not have those officials' bodies for meals. But can they really not? No matter how useless those officials were, they could still be controlled, if they let the people take care of themselves... Heh, do you know how terrifying that would be? That's why Zhao Wuji can't move. At least... he can't move now."    

The most taboo thing in official circles was to have a deep conversation.    

As the king, the most taboo thing is to let others know what you are thinking!    

His Majesty is very abnormal today, perhaps he is tired.    

It is not just physically tired.    

The person he could talk to... originally didn't exist.    

The only thing he could hear was those cold memorial tablets of the Water Strike Palace.    

However, His Majesty still told Xiao Yun these words that he had never said to his own son.    

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment.    

Then he grinned and said, "Then Imperial Tutor Zhao will not move. In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, the grudge between us cannot be resolved. It was caused by some unimportant things. It was likely that he would be a little puzzled, but in reality, back then, the commoner almost died in the hands of that aunt. Oh, my God... She was the only heir to the Xiao family! That auntie is a member of the Zhao family."    

Xiao Yun left the Imperial Palace very quickly.    

He came and left quickly.    

This time, no one was going to send him out of the Imperial Palace.    

In the night, he turned his head to look at the entire Imperial Palace, then laughed bitterly.    

He quietly walked on the widest and most flat road in the capital.    

There was no one else in the quiet night. It was quite a feeling to walk on this road.    

A cool breeze blew, but the waves were not alarmed.    

Su Shi's previous work of Red Cliff was rather flamboyant. Did he know that he was just a chess piece in the hands of the Emperor? Even if he had the karma of being a scholar, it was just a fleeting cloud, and in the end, the situation would disappear like smoke and smoke.    

Could it be that Imperial Tutor Zhao didn't know that he would also have such a fate in the end?    

No, he should know.    

This was a game of chess.    

A game with His Majesty.    

What about himself?    

It was probably a non-essential existence in this game.    

Of course, they wouldn't have thought that an insignificant existence like him would be able to influence the general trend of the world in the end.    

People had to be a supporting role first before they could become the main character.
