I Don’t Want To Be the Emperor

 Chapter 493 The bottom line

According to the old practice, it would be a mercy not to arrest these people and put them in cages. How can they be allowed to be so arrogant and domineering!

Lin Yi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't just talk about being nice, but also take actions to truly care about the interests of the people and benefit them."

Even though people like He Jixiang and Chen Desheng are well-read in poetry and economics, and full of moral articles, they also understand the principle that "water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

Furthermore, after suffering in a miasmatic place like Sanhe for more than ten years, he has lost much of his temper. He is usually very kind-hearted, and even lowers his eyebrows and eyes in front of him.

 However, at their core, they are politicians and they play by means.

 Politicians only have "interests" in their eyes, and there is no right or wrong.

They are similar to the scholar-bureaucrats in history such as Yuan Zhen, Ouyang Xiu, Cai Lun, and Dong Qichang. To expect them to have character is not as good as a sow that can climb a tree.

They will never regard the people as human beings. They are uneducated, ignorant, and as stupid as deer and hogs. It is a blessing from heaven to allow them to have a bite to eat.

He Jixiang was stunned for a moment, hesitated, and then said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely abide by His Majesty's teachings, vigorously develop education, promote economic development, do practical things for the people, and strive to ensure that students have access to education, work has income, and people have health benefits." Medical care, support for the elderly, shelter, and support for the weak.”

 Normally, he would never say these vernacular words that he considered very "vulgar" in front of a group of people.

 However, seeing the prince's expression now, he seemed to be very dissatisfied, and he had to follow Ma Jie's example.

 “That’s good,”

Lin Yi patted his thin shoulder and said with a smile, "You are an important minister. If you don't take the lead in doing practical things for the people and learn from others, wouldn't it mean that the country will be ruined?"

"ah"

He Jixiang was so frightened that he was about to kneel on the ground, but Lin Yi held him up with two hands. He could only cry and said, "I know the crime."

 The country will not be a country?

This hat is too big!

Isn’t this the case in Daliang Kingdom all the time?

 There are refugees all over the place, and the people are in dire straits!

 “I just said, don’t do this, but you just can’t listen,”

Lin Yi took out his hand, covered his mouth and yawned, "If our country, Daliang, wants to be strong and powerful and make others feel so frightened, we can only do it by making its people rich!"

That’s how convenient it is to cut leeks and gather wool!

Like now, the poor ghosts are screaming one after another, and they are ready to rebel before they even take the knife.

 The people's ability to withstand setbacks is not good this time!

 They must be fattened up first, otherwise they really won’t be able to carry them!

“I must carefully understand and thoroughly implement the line and policy set by the prince,”

Being so frightened, He Jixiang said these words more and more fluently, "Achieve a moderately prosperous society as soon as possible, where everyone has enough food and warm clothes."

"As long as you know.

At the same time, we must step up our efforts to crack down on human trafficking. These are the flowers and bones of Daliang, the future labor force, and cannot be abused by everyone. "

 The road to rescuing minors is long and arduous!

Those human traffickers are so rampant that they dare to cut off the hands and feet of children and control them from begging!

 He has been fighting round after round, but the incident still shows no signs of slowing down, and he is very angry.

These people really regard the laws and officials of the Liang Kingdom as

 “If I obey the decree, I will be severely punished without mercy!”

“This is true for all the capitals of our Daliang Kingdom, let alone other places.

 Furthermore, if these people can be so arrogant, they must have something to rely on. Maybe the traitors are within our ranks. I want you to follow the clues, find these evil forces, and completely cut off the industrial chain of these people."

Lin Yifa said harshly, "After we catch him, we can just behead him on the spot. There is no need to hold him in jail and hold a trial, which will waste food."

 He is really impatient.

 He would rather give gentleness to animals than give rights to those human scum.

He Jixiang said in a deep voice, "Next, I will work with the Third Division, the Ministry of War, and the Ankang Prefecture to focus on cracking down on crime and trafficking."

“Then come on, don’t let me see these things again.”

Lin Yi said no more and waved his hand at He Jixiang. After He Jixiang led a group of people and bowed and retreated, he couldn't help but yawned again and fell asleep directly on the newly sprouted grass. .

When I woke up, I found that Yu Shi was counting copper coins, turning a bunch of coins over and over in his hand, and his frown became deeper and deeper.

Lin Yi took the tea cup from Hong Ying and took a sip, then smiled at Yu Xiao and said, "What? Are you short of money?"

Yu Xiao said with a sad face, "Your Majesty, when will I not be short of money?"

Lin Yi said angrily, "I say this as if I have wronged you. You can tell your conscience that your monthly income is at least dozens of taels. Where is this money?"

Yu Shi spread the large amount of money in front of Lin Yi's eyes and sighed, "Your Majesty, there are only fifty copper coins left."

Hong Ying said from the side, "You kid, you are eating and drinking, of course you won't be able to save money."

Yu Shi glanced at Hong Ying and didn't dare to answer.

Cui Gengsheng told him that if he can't speak, he should speak less in front of Manager Hong. The less he speaks, the less he will make mistakes. The less he makes, the less he will be beaten.

Although his mind is occasionally unclear, he deeply understands it.

 As long as he doesn't answer the call, Manager Hong won't be able to beat him.

“Fifty copper coins, you are also a successful person,”

Lin Yi smiled and joked, "When you first came to Ankang City, you seemed to have only fifty copper coins. Now after such a long time, you still have fifty copper coins. You can eat and drink for free for a year or two. Not bad."

The guards nearby couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

 “Your Majesty.”

 I spent the rest of the hour crying and unable to say a word.

"You stay at my father-in-law's house every day, you have food and drink, and you are not hungry to death. What do you have to worry about?"

Lin Yi was not worried at all that he would starve to death.

Even if there is no father-in-law in charge of the food, he is still a personal guard of the palace and has no business dealings with him. It is estimated that there are countless people in Ankang City who are fawning over him. Let alone giving him a meal, as long as he is willing to accept it, it is no problem to give him money.

"okay,"

Lin Yi said with a smile, "Don't cry poor in front of me. I heard that your wife has bought shares in several commercial banks, and is also making loan sharks outside, making a lot of money. You go home and make your wife happy, and you can do whatever you want with your fingers." If you miss something, are you afraid that you won’t have enough money to spend?”

If you want to talk about being poor, then this prince is really poor!

He has indeed made a lot of money in these years, and he has also made a lot of money from property raids, but he can't bear to spend it!

There are holes everywhere, demolishing the east wall to repair the west wall, whether it is the national treasury or his inner treasury, rats are running around!

If he didn't have too many worries, he would have liked to let the troops stationed in various places do business and be self-reliant and self-sufficient.

However, no matter what, he would not dare to open this mouth easily!

 What if everyone’s “loyalty” cannot withstand the test?

For example, a little **** like Xiao Xizi, would he shout without any bottom line in the end:

That's my dearest prince and you need to pay more!
