Chapter 651： credibility

  Wei Heizi squatted in the corner, listening to the quarrel among the people in the village, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Yesterday, Li Zheng came to inform that the palace would accept small items such as hydrochloric acid vegetables and dried prickly pears. Li Zheng advised them to exchange all the notes instead of money, because it was more cost-effective to exchange notes than money. The grain is exchanged for the slid, and then the remainder is sold.

But the villagers don’t really want to change the slivers. Who knows if the slivers can be exchanged for food in the future? Only the money in hand is real, Li Zheng sighed and persuaded them: "Could it be that the palace can still lose us this amount of money? This time the Yamen is taking the lead, and they will never rely on us."

The villagers didn’t say anything, thinking to themselves: It’s because the yamen took the lead that we couldn’t believe it.

If the palace will not be replaced by then, can they still rely on the palace?

Li Zheng could only sigh when he saw this. He was a respected old man in this area, so the yamen asked him to come forward, but everyone didn't trust the yamen very much, so he couldn't do anything about it.

and the others all dispersed, Li Zheng stood up swaying with his hands behind his back, Wei Heizi hurriedly ran over to support him, Li Zheng squinted at him for a while before he could see clearly, "It's Heizi."

Wei Heizi smiled embarrassedly, "Sixth Uncle, grandnephew will send you back."

Li was nodding slowly, and when he arrived at the door of the house, Wei Heizi asked, "Sixth Uncle, is your family changing money or notes?"

"Change the note." Li Zheng said indifferently, it wasn't because of how much he trusted the yamen, he actually went with a gamble mentality.

When Wei Heizi heard what Li Zheng said, his heart was settled, and when he got home, he said to his parents and daughter-in-law, "Our family has changed everything."

Mr Wei hesitated, "What if they default on their debts?"

Wei Heizi gritted his teeth and said, "No, the sixth uncle has changed the note, he will never let himself lose money. If this is a default, even if we don't have a good luck."

Wei Heizi lowered his head and said, "Father, mother, I've done the math. The things in our family are only two or three hundred cents worth of copper plates. At the current grain price, we can't buy a few catties of rice."

"Didn't you say that the price of the princess' food is low?"

"Change the note first, we may not be able to grab the rest of the food. There are so many rich people in the city."

Wei's father and Wei's mother looked at each other and both agreed with their son's decision, not to mention Wei's wife.

In the palace, Mu Yangling flipped through the ledger, sighed, and said, "The Miao village is full of notes, and there is not a single person asking for money. On the Han Chinese side, it is the opposite. Only a third are willing to take a note."

Qi Haoran frowned, "The appeal of the Miao Village chief is so strong?" This is a threat to the country and the army.

What Mu Yangling is concerned about is, "The credibility of the yamen is too weak, Haoran, we should find a way to improve the credibility of the court, and we must do everything we promise to the people. Only in this way will the people have a sense of belonging to Daqi."

"What is credibility?"

"It is the power of the people's trust, and the credibility of the court refers to the trust of the people in the court. This time we let the yamen come forward, and even let the respected elders take the lead, but only one-third of the people are willing to choose to believe us. It can be seen that this How bad the credibility is, it does not rule out whether there is coercion or coercion."

Qi Haoran knew how important this thing was after Mu Yangling explained it. He looked at Mu Yangling with bright eyes and asked, "How can this thing be improved?"

"It can only be done step by step. First of all, the promises made by the court must be fulfilled, and we must try our best to help the people get rid of poverty and become rich. People's hearts are full of flesh. As long as the court is honest and the people are the first, over time, the people will treat the court. The trust in the country will increase, and once the country is in trouble, they will not easily give up the country," Mu Yangling said softly: "And give up the royal family Qi."

Qi Haoran's eyes shone brightly, "I wrote a secret letter to my eldest brother, asking him to eat more cured pork and dried prickly pears..."

This is just a joke. Qi Haoran seriously wrote a proposal to Qi Xiuyuan about the credibility of the imperial court.

Qi Xiuyuan put away this seal by himself, and no one showed it to him. He knew what his younger brother meant. Not only should the credibility of the imperial court be improved, the credibility of the royal family should be improved even more.

The common people must not only have a sense of belonging to Daqi, but also have a sense of belonging and trust to the royal family Qi of Daqi, because only in this way can the Qi family stand firm even if the country changes.

This is not something that can be done overnight, and requires the unremitting efforts of several generations.

Qi Xiuyuan put away the seal and planned to pass it on to future generations.

And now, there is one thing to improve the credibility of the royal family. After Qi Xiuyuan hugged Xiaobao, he said to the queen: "This time Qiannan entered the palace with a lot of 'local specialties', so he ordered the imperial study to have dinner in the evening. Use ingredients sent from Qiannan."

Li Jinghua was stunned when she thought of what was written on the gift list just now, and said, "What do you eat?"

Qi Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Let's try it early, Haoran said he has eaten it before, and it tastes good." He hugged Xiaobao and said with a smile, "Xiaobao, let's try Xiaoxiong's food in Qiannan tonight, shall we?"

Xiaobao nodded again and again.

As a result, the courtiers had just received the **** of the tribute team from Qiannan into the capital, but before they found out what the tribute was, it was rumored that the emperor ate the "tribute" and gave him a "big thumbs up" in the evening.

All the ministers knew that the emperor was very satisfied with this tribute, because all fools knew that the news must have been released by the emperor on his own initiative.

Joke, the emperor has been on the throne for half a year, and there are few people in the harem. The queen manages the harem like an iron barrel, and no news has leaked out.

The news came out after the emperor finished his dinner, and he wanted to know who wrote it.

And the news is half hidden and half hidden. It only says that the emperor likes the "tribute" sent by Qiannan, but he doesn't know what the tribute is.

Is it another "Lipu Taro"?

That is why the emperor spoiled King Rongjun so much, for fear that they would impeach King Rongjun tomorrow. Well, they wouldn't do such a thankless thing, although they don't quite agree with King Rongjun's tribute at this time. , laboring the people and hurting the money, but they don't need to sing the opposite of the emperor for this trivial matter.

The emperor really didn't need to eat the tribute in a hurry to express his attitude.

But this idea only lasted until the second day of the court meeting, when the gift list of Qiannan was officially announced at the court meeting, and the ministers were shocked. When did the tribute become so cheap?

Before anyone could question Qi Haoran for the crime of deceiving the emperor, Yan Du came out and said: "I am very fortunate to the emperor, I am very fortunate to the people of Qi, although King Rongjun paid tribute, but he did not waste the people and money, it is really my big Qi. Good luck."

He cried bitterly, and began to mention the suffering of the people of Lipu for planting taro as a tribute, and the price paid by the people of Fuzhou for pearl picking. Emperor Jingyan, the people are suffering, we should abolish this kind of tribute and pay tribute to the people..."
