Zeng Shengwu had no good feelings for the two yamen, the Taxation Department and the Department of Internal Affairs. The Taxation Department was better, and he also knew how much tax the Taxation Department collected this time. Of course, it offended a lot of people.

But in Zeng Shengwu's view, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is the yamen dedicated to making money for the emperor.

But his methods are more clever and will not conflict with businessmen, but Zeng Shengwu always feels that something will happen.

"See Governor!" After meeting Zeng Shengwu, Cao Yuan showed great respect and sincere attitude, which was more professional than Li Zhongxing next to him.

Zeng Shengwu nodded, made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile: "You two are here today. It seems that there is something to say! And it's not a small matter, so I will listen carefully."

Li Zhongxing and Cao Yuan naturally heard the dislike in Zeng Shengwu's words, but the two of them didn't care.

"Let General Manager Li say it!" Cao Yuan said with a smile: "I believe that General Manager Li's affairs can make Lord Zeng happy."

Zeng Shengwu nodded, and didn't care. He turned to look at Li Zhongxing and waited for him to speak.

At this time, Li Zhongxing naturally didn't hesitate and said directly: "The first thing is that the Ministry of Internal Affairs wants to buy a piece of land from Xuanda, right next to the South Canal!" As he said that, Li Zhongxing took out a booklet and placed it on the table.

Buy land?

Zeng Shengwu did not expect that the first thing Li Zhongxing wanted to say was to buy land, which made him wonder and did not make it difficult for him to do so. In fact, the Inner Affairs Office was the yamen of the court, although it was the emperor's yamen.

But whether it is the Jinyiwei or the Dongchang, they are all royal yamen, and they don’t spend money on doing things.

"This land is about 3,000 acres, and there are still 5,000 acres of barren mountains around. The Ministry of Internal Affairs wants to buy it." Li Zhongxing said with a faint smile: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has checked it. These lands are all down to the fields and cannot produce much grain."

Zeng Shengwu picked up the booklet and recalled the approximate location of Li Zhongxing’s statement in his mind.

It is indeed not a good land there, but it is military farming and the land of Datong Jun Town. In fact, Zeng Shengwu also knew that the land did not produce food. Although it was by the river, it used to be a wasteland and was not short of water, but the land was not fertile.

Although the land and barren mountains are quite large, Zeng Shengwu still doesn't know what the Ministry of Internal Affairs is going to do.

If you want to use this piece of land, just requisition it directly. Zeng Shengwu believes that it is very easy for the Office of the Internal Affairs to do this. He doesn't understand why Li Zhongxing used it to buy it. If he can't figure it out, he won't speak. Zeng Shengwu understood this after becoming an official.

When Li Zhongxing saw Zeng Shengwu not speaking, he just looked at him and didn't care.

"Mr. Zeng, this is actually a commercial act. In fact, this land belongs to the court. The Interior Office wants this land to meet the wool textile factory. This is not a matter for the court. The Interior Office does not represent the court."

Zeng Shengwu immediately understood why Li Zhongxing did this, and he also knew why Li Zhongxing did this.

Since that's the case, there is a possibility of operation of this matter. Li Zhongxing even thought of the role of this money, and it is certain to hand it over to the treasury, but some of it is to stay in the Governor of Xuanda.

After the money is left behind, there will be more things you can do.

No wonder the emperor proposed the recruitment system. Obviously, after Xuanda recruited troops, the money for recuperation was paid by Xuanda himself, rather than the government allocated funds. Then he needed to find a source of wealth for Xuanda. Li Zhongxing was here to give him money this time.

Of course, Zeng Shengwu didn't think this was Li Zhongxing's kindness, so this kindness naturally came from the emperor.

"I wonder how much money General Manager Li is going to pay for land?" Zeng Shengwu looked at Li Zhongxing and asked.

"Three thousand acres of land, eighty taels per mu, five thousand acres of barren mountains, forty taels per mu, totaling forty taels per mu." Li Zhongxing's face was not blushing or breathing.

In fact, Li Zhongxing was a Shanxi merchant before. He knew the strength of these people. Not to mention other people, the Li family alone would not be a problem to mobilize hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Li Zhongxing knew that he had taken advantage of this land price. The land price of that generation in the future: tsk tsk!

Originally, he could have taken more advantage, but Li Zhongxing knew that the emperor would not let him do that.

Zeng Shengwu almost sprayed out a sip of tea when he heard this price. He was thinking about more points just now, but Li Zhonghang's offer was far beyond his heart's reserve price, and it was several times higher.

"Mr. Zeng, regarding land use, the Ministry of Internal Affairs actually divides land into three types."

Seeing Zeng Shengwu's appearance, Li Zhongxing explained.

Zeng Shengwu said hesitantly: "I hope to hear it carefully!"

"Land is divided into three categories according to its use, namely commercial land, namely building restaurant markets, etc., agricultural land, for planting, industrial land, for workshops."

“The land price varies depending on the purpose.”

Next, Li Zhongxing introduced three land use standards to Zeng Shengwu in detail, and then handed a document to Zeng Shengwu, saying with a smile: "If we do it here, then the capital will use this as a permanent example."

"All land in the country belongs to the court. If someone wants to buy land, they need to operate at different prices."

"The court will order the tax department to set the minimum price for each type of land purchase and sale based on the locations of each place. Anyone who wants to use the land of the court needs to buy it. There is no free lunch in the world, and the land belongs to the court."

Zeng Shengwu looked confused and could still do this, but he didn't know what it felt like.

In the past, the imperial court encouraged land reclamation, and whoever reclaimed land belonged to whom. Now, what is going to do? It must be the world of thrilling again!

"What should I do if I settle the land?" Zeng Shengwu raised his own question.

"Agricultural land will not be subject to this restriction!" Li Zhongxing explained: "If the land is reclaimed, the court will issue you a land deed and pay taxes on the land acres. If not, it will be handled as concealed land."

When Zeng Shengwu heard about the hidden land, the corner of his mouth twitched. Now the whole country is investigating the hidden land, and the Taxation Department is in a turmoil.

"Mr. Zeng, you were originally someone who could enter the cabinet. The Emperor sent Mr. Zeng to Xuanda, so he naturally did big things." Li Zhongxing said with a smile: "This place will be a benchmark. Your Majesty said it is called the new district."

Zeng Shengwu was silent, and he realized after a while. No wonder the emperor was so cautious.

After pondering for a while, Li Zhongxing figured out a little. He was a very smart person and quickly figured out the whole story. Although the impact was a bit big and it was a bit difficult to accept it for a while, Zeng Shengwu also figured out some things.

"When you see a dock or a factory by the river, it will become a very prosperous place. Manager Li, don't you want to set up the mutual market there, right?"

After hearing Zeng Shengwu's words, Li Zhongxing smiled bitterly. Sure enough, none of the people selected by His Majesty could meet. Mr. Zeng seemed shocked, but his reaction was not slow. He smiled and took out another document. Li Zhongxing said: "Mr. Zeng, this is another book to buy land."

As he said that, Li Zhongxing took out another document and said, "It is used to build a large market!"

Zeng Shengwu glanced at Li Zhongxing and sighed in his heart, it was indeed so!

His vigilance suddenly became raised. Although the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was doing things according to the emperor's request, he was also taking advantage of loopholes. After taking the document and taking a look, Zeng Shengwu's heart trembled again.

Another three thousand acres!

In fact, these lands are not necessarily useful for the time being, but Li Zhongxing is a businessman and knows that hoarding land is definitely the only way to make a fortune. At this time, the land is stored, and once the big market is completed, the land price is: tsk!

Zeng Shengwu put down the documents in his hand and did not go to see Li Zhongxing. Instead, he turned to look at Cao Yuan: "Cao Sicheng, are you going to the Governor's Office to control it?"

"Of course!" Cao Yuan said quickly.

Zeng Shengwu nodded and said, "Then you and Ben talk about what you are doing."

"When I go back to the capital hall, the official is here to discuss the collection of commercial taxes with the capital hall!" Cao Yuan said with a calm expression: "The Taxation Department is preparing to implement new commercial taxes in Datong. After all, the profits of grassland trade are very generous, and it is not enough not to pay taxes."

Zeng Shengwu fully understood this time that the money for selling land is for himself to do things, while the new commercial tax is for Xuanda.

In this way, the money in front of you will be solved and the money will be available in the future. Who will pay for this money? Of course, the businessmen will be a little reluctant, but no one will let you come, and you will not come to Datong.

But when you are coming, you must follow the rules of Datong.

Now the businessmen outside are almost crazy, and there are a lot of letters and requests he has received. Once the textile factory is built and the large market is added, countless businessmen will definitely break the head.

Zeng Shengwu thought about it and knew how much profit it was, and it was a mountain of silver!

Thinking of this, the young emperor's face appeared in Zeng Shengwu's heart. It was obvious that this plan was not ready for a day. From the establishment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, these were planned step by step!

His Majesty is really thoughtful!

Changing the Salt Administration with great courage and blocking the Salt Administration means blocking the neck of Shanxi merchants, starting trade in the northwest, allowing them to invest their money here and step by step. This plan is terrifying!

Li Zhongxing and Cao Yuan looked at each other, and no one spoke, but just waited quietly for Zeng Shengwu.

In fact, Zeng Shengwu thought of one thing, that is, his military reform, changed the military garrison system to the recruitment system. Zeng Shengwu was worried about how to deal with the soldiers who were in the military farm. After the land was divided, they did not see how good their lives were.

But now it seems that these people are not enough, and merchants will probably go everywhere to grab people by then.
