Bullet Screen Taught Me To Be A Queen [MTL]

Chapter 25-26

Chapter 25 - Participate in political affairs.

Among the doormen who came to Jiang Zhen, the most powerful name was Guo Fan. His brother was a famous scholar in the State of Wei. His brother stirred up trouble in the State of Wei, offended the powerful, and nationalized the fiefdom of the princes, so that the common people had the opportunity to be promoted with military achievements, which was also a personal belonging.

Guo Fan did not dare to give up. He proposed to Jiang Zhen that King Jiang should take the salt iron nationalized. The salt iron in the nobles' fiefs could only be sold to the state, and then the state price was priced for takeaway.

In this way, we can not only control the domestic finances, but also rely on salt iron to control other countries.

Now Jiang's salt and iron are in the hands of Jiang. The court can barely control the direction of salt and iron to prevent them from flowing into the enemy country, but all of them are nationalized, which is not difficult.

Jiang is not a large grain-producing country. It relies on salt and iron to generate income, control salt and iron transactions in various places, and control your fiefdom. There is no difference.

Not to mention others, Jiang Zhen's most important financial source now is refined salt, which is no different from breaking her wings.

Looking at Guo Fan's calm and detached face, Jiang Zhen asked, "You know that I make money by selling salt, right?"

"The princess is resourceful. If you don't have the business of refined salt, you have other ways to make money." Guo Fan was not afraid of death and said, "Although Jiang Guo is rich, he is not in the court. You are the princess of Jiang. Only when Jiang is strong can you live a good life.

Jiang Zhen asked, "Have you mentioned your ideas to your sons and grandchildren?"

"As soon as I came to Jiang from the State of Zheng, I came to the Princess's Mansion." Guo Fan said very transparently, "In the whole Jiang Kingdom, only the princess will recommend me to the king."

Guo Fan's claim can be said to have violated 80% of the nobles of Jiang's country, those princes and grandchildren, who are not involved in the business of salt and iron.

When he was king, everyone liked ministers like Guo Fan, but the key was that they had not yet ascended the throne. Guo Fan's move was used to weaken them. Whoever recommends him is a fool.

The ministers in the court did not dare to support Guo Fan casually. There are too many nobles who have offended, and there will be no good end.

If Jiang Zhen is a princess who eats and drinks and waits to get married, she certainly doesn't mind introducing Guo Fan to Jiang Wang, but she is also bad in her heart, and she is not happy that Guo Fan will do bad things at this time.

Jiang Zhen sighed and said to Guo Fan, "Your opinion is as radical as your brother. Your brother now has the support of King Wei, which has stirred people upside down in the State of Wei, but he will definitely die in the end. Do you believe it?

"I believe it. But before death, I can implement my own ideas and leave a name in history, even if there is no place to die, it is worth it. What's more, I only advocate collecting salt and iron, and I didn't seal the ground. Guo Fan said firmly, "There is no reason why I can't compare with my brother."

Guo Fan even felt that he was a moderate compared with his brother.

[They are really afraid of death. Their teachers are also quite awesome, and their disciples are all iron-headed.]

[But what he said does make sense. If Jiang Guo's court can directly control salt and iron, the national strength will also increase greatly. It's not appropriate to use it now, but when little Ah Zhen is the queen, he can use this person.]
