Chapter 536 Your Majesty, the old minister also had a dream
At this moment, Zhou Lihua spoke: "Your Majesty, the old minister has also had a dream."
Zhou Lihua did not wait for anyone to ask, and then said, "Yesterday, Lao Chen dreamed of His Majesty Taizong. She told me that the railway is a state-owned weapon and must be taken as state-owned and used by the state. He also asked His Majesty to issue an order to collect the railway as state-owned."
Use your spear to attack your shield.
sharp!
All the people who jumped out were stunned.
It’s impossible, I agree to Cao Yan’s dream, but I don’t agree to Zhou Lihua’s dream?
Everyone looked at Cao Yan quickly, wanting to see how Cao Yan resolved it.
Cao Yan smiled slightly and bowed under the expectant gaze of everyone, saying, "Your Majesty, I agree, and I am willing to make the decision for my wife and sister. I will sell the railway from Kaifeng Prefecture to Luoyang to the court, and hand over the railway's plan for the next three years to the court."
Cao Yan took out a plan from his arms and submitted it.
This was originally planned to use it when he was trying to make a wave of speculation and publish it when the stock exchange opened, but he didn't expect it to use it now.
Is this agreed?
Shouldn't it?
Everyone present was stunned by Cao Yan's actions.
Xiang Qinghan opened the plan and looked around. Sure enough, there were several railways in the plan, one built to Jiangnan, the other to Ezhou (Wuhan), and the remaining one was to Buqi Luoyang to Jingzhao Prefecture (Xi'an).
The content is very detailed.
From there to there, how much quotation, how to repair the route, and what difficulties are listed one by one, very detailed.
After Xiang Qinghan finished reading it, he asked someone to pass on the plan and let the eunuch pass on it.
Let all the important officials in front of him read it.
Now everyone believed in Cao Yan's sincerity, not a lie.
"Everyone has no problem?" Cao Yan asked when he saw that they had all finished reading.
Although I don’t know what medicine Cao Yan bought in the gourd, everyone who had just seen it shook their heads.
"Okay, please let the Finance Department tie up the 48 million yuan of my wife and sister to build this railway."
"What?"
This number makes the court quiet.
"Cao Sanhuo, don't go too far!" someone jumped out and shouted.
Cao Yan smiled: "Am I overdoing that?"
"Why don't you grab this price?"
"Why did I snatch it? First of all, the road is 400 miles long and there is a record of using iron. A total of more than 8 million kilograms of iron was used. When I bought the iron from the Ministry of Industry, I spent fifty cents per kilogram. In addition, private acquisitions were estimated to be no less than 10 million kilograms. This processed into a railway of up to five million kilograms, and 100,000 people were hired, four cents a month, and worked for five months, and there were still 708 to 88 cents. These were not an exaggeration to count as three million kilograms!"
"Do you think everyone can't settle the score?"
"We won't forget it if you give such a high wage for the people, but isn't it only worth 500,000 yuan for iron or ten million yuan?"
Cao Yan glanced at the man who spoke, but didn't know him, and then looked at a minister he knew nearby.
The man understood what Cao Yan meant: "Shilar of Liu, the Ministry of Revenue."
"I now know why Da Chu collects so many financial and taxes every year, so why does he always lose money? It turns out that he has such a talent as Mr. Liu."
Mr. Liu's face was not very good-looking, and Cao Yan said nothing good: "What do you mean?"
"You still ask such a simple question? According to what you said, why don't you buy a plate of vegetables for a few cents? He didn't spend any money on firewood cut by others, so why didn't you give it to me? Why do you, Mr. Liu, still need a salary? Why don't you do things for the court for free?"
"Haha," a burst of laughter came from the crowd.
"Caofu Gong, you're afraid you don't know. The store that Mr. Liu's family opened in the past was to open one after another. We haven't found out why. Now after hearing what you said, we know that Mr. Liu is a good person!" Someone shouted in the court. It was a minister named Zhao Puze from the Zhengsi. The two had a conflict a few years ago. As the old saying goes, the one who knows you best is your enemy. Zhao Puze can count all the bad things of Mr. Liu.
"Haha!" Not only did the courtiers laugh.
Even Xiang Qinghan on the imperial throne could hardly hold it back, and it was very hard to hold it in.
"Your Majesty, the people from the Ministry of Revenue must be carefully identified in the future, so don't select people randomly." Cao Yan continued to finish the fight.
Just as Mr. Liu was about to refute, he was stopped by the person in front of him.
It is Zhang Zhiyang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
"This money is fine, but what does the other 40 million mean? Can you please explain it to the Supreme Court Cao?"
"Four locomotives, each with ten million trump cards."
"Isn't Cao's official joking?" Zhang Zhiyang smiled faintly.
"Just kidding?" Cao Yan smiled, pointing in one direction: "I remember General Li Jianyuan and General Li's family have a set of ancestral armor!"
Li Jianyuan was a little unresponsive when Cao Yan asked this and nodded blindly.
"I heard that someone once paid 10,000 yuan to buy it?"
Li Jianyuan continued to nod. This was reported by him. At that time, others only paid 8,000 guan, but in order to brag, he raised the price to an integer.
"That's right. The scrap that I can't stop with a punch can be sold for 10,000 yuan. It's okay if my locomotive is a thousand times more expensive than the scrap! Of course, you can't buy it if you think it's expensive. I don't force it to buy it. Isn't there a saying that buying and selling will not be a righteous person?"
Now Li Jianyuan reacted. Cao Yan was stepping on him and said angrily: "What do you mean by Cao Sanhuo?"
"It's literally. I don't believe you put your armor on and let me punch you to see if I can kill you." Cao Yan directly quarreled.
Since taking control of Kaifeng Prefecture, Cao Yan discovered why Feng Zhuyue was so miserable back then, it was all caused by his Li family.
Cao Yan also found out the specific reason.
Before Feng Zhuyue had passed the door, his short-lived husband accidentally died of a life of misfortune.
His family kept a back for the dead son.
I plan to help Feng Zhuyue get a chance, and then choose a son and nephew to borrow a seed or something.
But how could Feng Chengzai be willing to live a widow and suffer that sin?
So they didn't agree, so after a while, the two families were confused and rumors came out. It is said that Li Jianyuan's wife would say that Feng Zhuyue would curry favor with her husband every time she met someone, and she also said it was quite well-known.
It soon spread in the capital, making Feng Zhuyue still not married yet even after 28 or 9 years of age.
Of course, Li Jianyuan opened his mouth and wriggled for a few times to Cao Yan's words, and finally swallowed his anger.
The damn person in front of me is a cruel man who can knock the inner city wall down with one punch.
Put on his armor and let him punch him. Don't joke, this punch is definitely not lighter than being hit by a stone by a catapult.
Even if the armor is fine, I will definitely be shattered.
Seeing that Li Jianyuan was timid and did not dare to talk to him, he wanted to see the person who quarreled in the court and stared at him with contempt.
The court has also become quiet.
Whether the money is paid or not is a question. After all, it is not a small amount. Those who wanted to confiscate the Cao Yan Railway looked at each other.
He looked at the imperial teacher Zhou Lihua standing in front again, hoping that he would help everyone get an idea.
Cao Yan was a little relieved when he saw their entangled attitude, but it was still a little beneficial in the system.
If he was a tycoon for ordinary people, then now...
