Chapter 278 Before leaving (1)

Li Muyun really didn't know whether Su Lie was here to see him off or to see him off. Anyway, he had never heard a good word from him.

He could only sigh: "Brother, do you think I am a person without a clue?"

"Like, no, you are just an unreliable person. I regret giving Wanqing to you now." Su Lie nodded formally.

Li Muyun looked at Su Lie with a lot of laughter and tears: "I said, brother, can't you give me some face?"

"I think, but you said that you went to Chang'an these two times. The first time you went, you killed the son of the Minister of Justice. The second time is even better. You killed the Minister of Justice directly. This is the third time you went, who can rest assured!" Su Lie was also helpless. He knew that he could not stop Li Muyun, so he could only complain.

Li Muyun felt very embarrassed and blinked innocently: "Brother, then you can't blame me for this matter. Besides, that boy Han Qiang was not killed by me, that was just an accident. And the second time he went there was Han Ai's old Deng first, it was not Wanqing. I took action to eliminate future troubles."

"I don't care about the previous things, and I don't want to care about them. In short, be honest in the future." Su Lie stared at Li Muyun and said seriously: "Wanqing has been suffering since she was a child. She has not lived a safe birthday with my father and me for a few days. You can't let her follow you and continue to live a life of today or tomorrow, right? Even if you can't be granted an imperial edict, at least you can't let her worry about you all day long, right?"

I have to say that Su Lie is really good at being a big brother. People say that the elder brother is like a father, and this seems to have been verified by him. For his sister, it seems that she has taken care of meticulously.

Li Muyun felt that he could understand Lao Su completely. When the little girl Lin Ruoxi around him was taken away, he was also lost for a long time, and that was not his own sister.

So after a brief hesitation, Li Muyun finally put away his cynical face and assured Su Lie very seriously: "Brother, don't worry about this matter. I, Li Muyun, swear to the sky that I will not let Wanqing suffer any grievances!"

After talking about Su Wanqing's affairs, Su Lie brought the topic back to Li Muyun's trip to Chang'an. He said seriously: "Just know what you know. This time you will probably not have any risks. Except for the construction teams with thousands of people, everything else is easy to say. So you should try to endure it as much as possible in this matter. Even if someone provokes you, you will ignore him. With His Majesty the Emperor's trust in you, I guess even if others have ideas, they can only talk about it."

Li Muyun knew that nothing to say to Su Lie at this time was useless, so he could only nod and said, "Well, I understand!"

In some ways, he knew better than Su Lie. Although he had never been in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, things in the officialdom remained the same. If you savored them carefully throughout the ages, many things actually had extremely high similarities.

From a broad perspective, the country has developed its economy, strengthened its military, and strengthened its international influence. From a small perspective, it seems that it has not changed when it comes to being an official for thousands of miles. Zhao Gao, Shi Chong, Cai Jing, Heshen, from Qin Shihuang to Qianlong, there have been ups and downs for two thousand years, but the word greed has never changed.

Therefore, although Li Muyun did not understand the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, his previous life made him understand what the intrigue in the officialdom was. It was precisely because of this that he made arrangements in advance, bribed Cheng Chumo and others, and used the borrowing of money to exchange for support in their family.

He believed that someone in the four-man group of playboys would definitely tell their family about this matter, so that even if at least these four families did not directly hold on to themselves, at least they would not say anything randomly.

As for the King of Han, Li Muyun really didn't care about him. As long as Li Shimin, the imperialist leader, was here, none of the brothers in the Li family dared to come to the formal occasion.

...

Time passed by little by little, and in a blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival, which is our current Lantern Festival.

The colorful lights in Shanyin County gather, and the lights are brightly lit like daytime.

It is not for anything else, just because Shanyin County has good policies, which are very beneficial to merchants.

First of all, Shanyin County never withheld taxes. How much should it be? The tax paid by merchants in the past was not much, nor much. They also issued receipts while doing business. As long as they paid once, no one would charge other fees.

Secondly, Shanyin County is safe, and there are no bandits within hundreds of miles outside the border.

Because the Jinluan Palace in Shanyin County is the most powerful bandit in this area, no one dared to make ground on his head. The two hundred Khitan cavalry footprints almost covered every inch of land within two hundred miles of the country, eliminating all potential threats.

There are also entertainment facilities in Shanyin County. There are many entertainment activities that you can’t imagine and cannot do.

Gambling can be done, and there is no loan shark. If you encounter a gambling house that has loan sharks, as long as you report it and verify it is true, the owner of the gambling house will definitely be hung on the city gate building.

There can be brothels, but they must be voluntarily. For those women who work in brothels, Shanyin County adopts a book building system, which protects their rights and interests well and eliminates "forced buying and selling". If such a thing happens, the perpetrators will also be hung on the city gate building for public display.

There is also food and accommodation. The food that cannot be eaten in the entire Tang Dynasty in Shanyin County. Just enough beef is enough to be attractive. In terms of living, the hotel in Shanyin County has the most comfortable bed, the most comfortable quilt, and the most comfortable environment.

Based on the above, Shanyin County has become a place that everyone flocks to on Hebei Road. If you have money here, you will never worry about not being able to spend it. You can definitely enjoy the best treatment here.

Yu Zhining expressed his deep hatred for this and believed that it was a pity for his gentleness, but when he saw the mountain of taxes, he began to doubt his thoughts again.

In just one month, the tax revenue in Shanyin County has increased by thousands of times compared with before. This is what happens when commercial tax is lower than agricultural tax. If commercial tax can meet the standards of agricultural tax, it is estimated that the tax can increase by thousands of times.

This situation really made Yu Zhining a little confused. From the perspective of an official, it was a good thing that Li Muyun paid countless taxes for the Tang Dynasty with such magical operations; but from the perspective of a literati, he really couldn't stand the mixed situation of the dragon and snake in Shanyin County.
