Chapter 1439: Do you have a mine at home?

"Daddy, why is Yunshan so bright tonight~? How many candles did they light?"

Below Yunshan, in a small farmhouse in Liujiazhuang, after dinner, a little

kid in his yard looked up and saw that the lights on Yunshan were obviously

brighter than before, so he couldn't help asking his father.

"Xiao Tao, that's not a candle, it's an electric light! The new electric light

made by Lord Hou! That thing is much brighter than ordinary candles!"

A middle-aged man walked out of the house, patted the little boy on the

shoulder, and said.

"Electric light? Why is it called electric light? Is it a light made of

lightning?"

"Hmm! This oil lamp consumes fuel, and candles consume wax. It is said that

this electric lamp consumes electricity. Lord Hou built a hydroelectric power

station on the Bahe River to generate electricity from water to power the

light! So this kind of light is called an electric light!"

"Wow! Use water to generate electricity? Master Hou is amazing! Yanhuang

Academy is so amazing! Daddy, how much is an electric light? When can we use

electric lights~?"

"...This light can only be used by a fairy academy like Yanhuang Academy, and

ordinary people can't afford it! Xiaotao, if you want to use a light bulb, the

easiest way is to enter Yanhuang Academy, you know, Hu Guoran from

Hanjiazhuang He is the same age as you, but he was admitted to Yanhuang

Academy last year, and I believe our Xiaotao can also pass the exam!"

"Yeah! Dad! The child must be admitted to Yanhuang Academy!"

The location of Yunshan is close to the very center of Lantian County. It is

surrounded by plain villages. Among the villages, Yunshan is like a "stand-

alone group of chickens". In addition, Li Zexuan established Yanhuang Academy

on Yunshan last year. The status of Lantian County came up immediately, and

the people looked up at Yunshan from time to time, their eyes were like

pilgrimages!

In their eyes, Li Zexuan is a child of immortals, Yunshan is an academy of

immortals, and a holy place for learning!

Therefore, very bright lights were lit on Yunshan tonight, which immediately

attracted the attention of the people in the villages around Yunshan.

At this time, most people just used dinner and just happened to be just fine.

So, the whole family moved their stools and sat in front of the door, pointing

to the bright lights on Yunshan, talking and talking, tut!

"Shanchang! The lights in all the teaching houses can be normally illuminated,

which shows that the electricity generated by the three generator sets is

sufficient to supply the entire Yanhuang Academy!"

In Yanhuang Academy, Mo Huai said with a smile to Li Zexuan in front of the

teaching building.

"Okay! In this way, I am relieved! But the education on safety of electricity

use in the academy can not be left. Continue for two more weeks. Make sure

that the students really understand electricity and use it correctly!"

Li Zexuan let out a sigh of relief and nodded to Mo Huai.

Mo Huai smiled slightly and said, "Shan Chief can rest assured that the

gentlemen of our Physics Department will perform their duties well, but with

electric lights, can students read books in the classroom at night before

going to bed?"

Li Zexuan smiled and said: "Mr. Yan has already mentioned this matter to me.

Recently, the teaching office will formulate a new class schedule for all

classes. After the students have dinner, there will be two classes to attend.

The teacher's explanation is supplemented. I call this evening self-study.

After the evening self-study is completed, students can go to the dormitory to

sleep, and the power outage of the dormitory will be postponed to the hour!"

Mo Huai said with a gratified expression: ‘It’s so good! Young people are

supposed to be diligent and studious. The mountain leader now creates

conditions for students to be diligent and studious. Students must cherish the

current conditions! ’

Li Zexuan nodded, said a few more words to Mo Huai, and then left.

.........

Today, Li Zexuan came here to stare at the lights in the college for a full

trial. At this point, it is impossible for him to return to the county seat,

so he had to stay with his wife in Yunshan Courtyard for one night!

It is worth mentioning that the Yanhuang Academy was equipped with electric

lights and the electric wires were connected, and the Yunshan Courtyard was

not left down. All electric lights were used, and there were no more electric

wires!

Li Gang and Sun Simiao, these old guys, stared at the lights at their home for

a long time tonight. They were dazzled and were willing to look elsewhere.

When Li Zexuan returned to the other courtyard, the room was lit up, and Han

Yuxi was sitting in the bedroom while looking through an unknown book with a

smile on her face. It was obvious that she was very happy at this time!

Today she expected that Li Zexuan would not be able to return to the county

seat after finishing the academy's affairs, so she came along!

"Msang Gong, you are back!"

Hearing the movement at the door, Han Yuxi quickly raised her head, and saw Li

Zexuan walking in, she got up to meet the front road.

"Hmm! The lady is still reading!"

Li Zexuan smiled and asked casually.

Han Yuxi smiled while helping Li Zexuan take off his coat:

"Yeah! It's too early, my concubine is still not drowsy. My husband, this

light is really good! On weekdays, after dinner, we can only go to rest soon,

but with the light, it's very different. After dinner, you can read books, and

girls can embroider with lights at home, and go to rest after a while. I feel

that this day is much more fulfilled than before!"

Li Zexuan couldn't help but happily said, "Hey! A small electric light is so

good in the mouth of a lady?"

Han Yuxi said with bright eyes, "Of course! Xianggong, don't you think that

the night before is a lot boring than the day? In addition to sleeping, you

still sleep. If you sleep too much, people can easily lose energy! Now with

electric lights, people You can also do things you do during the day at night,

whether you read books, or even female celebrities, it’s more meaningful than

lying in bed tossing about and not falling asleep~!"

Li Zexuan smiled and scratched Han Yuxi's white and tender Qiong nose, and

said: "Haha! The lady said it was reasonable, but ah, besides reading and the

female red, there is one more meaningful thing to wait for this evening, lady.

Do you want to know what it is?"

Seeing the wicked smile on Li Zexuan’s mouth, Han Yuxi quickly reacted, her

tender face turned red, and she hurriedly said, “I don’t know, I don’t want to

know... Wash and sleep!"

"Hey! If you want to sleep, of course you must sleep together!"

"Ah~! Don't!"

..........................

With electricity and electric lights on Yunshan, even in the dark, it can be

like daytime. The news was like wings. In the next day, it spread throughout

Chang'an and around the city of Chang'an. Yuzhou County!

The people are all talking in private, after all, the appearance of the

electric light makes them too incredible, and everyone is skeptical that the

rumors are true or false.

But soon, the official "official announcement" came!

It is today's "Datang Daily". The headline news is about the official power-up

of Yanhuang Academy last night. The headline is: Epoch! That man brings light

to the night of the world!

The author is Li Yu, the famous "Datang Daily" gold medal reporter!

After seeing what happened in Yanhuang Academy last night, and the brief

introduction to the light-emitting principle on the white paper in the

newspaper, people finally believed that Yanhuang Academy had mastered the

method of generating electricity and not using electricity, and that this

thing really has something better than candles. Oil lamps are several times

brighter!

It is human nature to be bright and avoid darkness. No one likes darkness.

Therefore, thousands of people cannot help but have a sincere yearning for the

kind of electric light mentioned in the newspaper!

Some wealthy businessmen who thought that their families had low wealth began

to send people to Qiquge to find out if they could buy the electric lights

mentioned in the newspaper, but without exception, they all got the same

reply, that is, electric lights are easy to buy, but Electricity is hard to

find. At present, in the entire Datang, only the Bahe Hydropower Station in

Lantian County can generate electricity. If you want to use electric lights,

you can not only buy a few bulbs, but also ask Yonganhou to supply electricity

to your house. !

In this way, those rich people who are eager to try and want to use electric

lights in their homes have retreated. It is true that they have money in their

homes, but in front of Li Zexuan, they really can only count as being. Poor

man!

"Hou Ye, since the establishment of the Department of Commerce, a total of 23

cases of merchant disputes have been tried. In each case, the officials have

personally interrogated them. All cases were decided only after the evidence

was collected from multiple parties and the evidence was conclusive. The

officials were willing to guarantee. Among them, there is absolutely no unjust

or wrong case, and all the officials of the Department of Commerce treat these

merchant dispute cases in the same way as ordinary civil cases before!"

In Lantian County, the magistrate of He County is reporting to Li Zexuan with

a serious face.

After Li Zexuan got up this morning, he simply ate breakfast and took his

daughter-in-law back to Hou Mansion in the county seat. He thought about the

vigorous commercial tax reform and the city’s "sweeping away from the gangs"

in Lantian county a few days ago. After returning to the Hou Mansion, Li

Zexuan rushed to the county government office in Lantian County after

returning to the Hou Mansion. He rushed to the county magistrate to find out

the situation!

"Well! This is the correct way for the government to treat merchants!"

Li Zexuan nodded and applauded: "If we collect heavy taxes from the merchants,

we have to provide them with protection. To put it ugly, in fact, the

government is no different from the bullies who ask for protection from the

merchants. The bullies accept it. The merchants’ protection fees will meet

certain protection obligations for the time being. If our government does not

perform as well as the bullies, then it will be difficult for Lantian County’s

commercial tax to be collected again!"

He county magistrate nodded solemnly and said: "The lower officials remember

the teachings of Lord Hou today, and will do their best to make the Department

of Commerce better and better!"

"Yeah! Let go and do it, if you encounter any resistance, just tell Benhou, I

will clear the obstacles for you!"

Li Zexuan said with a serious face.

"Thank you Hou Ye for your support~!"

He county magistrate hurriedly thanked him, he paused, and then he said: "Hou

Ye, the new business decree issued by the Department of Commerce was indeed

opposed by many people at the beginning, but afterwards all the gangs formed

by the local gangsters in Lantian County After being destroyed, the trend of

public opinion suddenly developed in a direction that was friendly to us.

Merchants in the city began to actively file tax returns, and even merchants

outside the city rushed to enjoy the preferential policies provided by our

Department of Commerce for merchants in Lantian County. Go to Lantian County

to buy a big shop.

According to the lower officials, these merchants who suddenly came to Lantian

County to open shops were first to obtain equal status with farmers and

craftsmen. Merchants have always been a despised class, but now Hou Ye ordered

merchants, farmers, and craftsmen to be equal. Since then, Lantian County has

only been divided into scholars and civilians. How can those merchants who

have been angry in other places stay in control after hearing this news?

As for the second reason, those merchants who want to open shops in Lantian

County mainly want to send their children to the county school in Lantian

County. After all, this remuneration is in other states and counties, so it is

too expensive to buy!

Among these merchants, the most prominent representative is the No. 1 cloth

merchant in Chang'an City. He is also a member of the Hou Yeyou Yanhuang

Chamber of Commerce-Cao Wendong. On the day the Department of Commerce was

established, he directly dragged his family to Lantian County and said He will

directly settle in Lantian County in the future, and he even bought the house

in advance!

Under the leadership of Cao Wendong, merchants from other states and counties

followed suit. The prices of shops in Lantian County's city squares rose again

and again. All of a sudden, it was hard to find a shop! "

There is excitement in He County Ling's words, and he has reason to be

excited. At the beginning, Lantian County was a small county, but now it has

become a prosperous county with a radius of hundreds of miles, second only to

Chang'an City, with many shops and endless crowds! Although Li Zexuan's

specific strategies were set by Li Zexuan, he is just a "tool man", but with

such political achievements, he would be happy even as a "tool man"!

"Yeah! All these princes know! After the implementation of the new tax law, in

the first month, how much business tax is expected to be collected by the

county government~?"

Li Zexuan smiled comfortedly, and then asked again.

Hearing Li Zexuan asked about this, He county magistrate smiled even more

happily. He handed over to Li Zexuan, "Going back to Lord Hou, from the

current monthly profit data reported by the major shops in the city to the

county government, this month the county government can expropriate Business

tax revenue of more than 4,000 guan~www.mtlnovel.com~ is simply more than the

previous year’s business tax revenue!"

"Four thousand Kan! It's okay too!"

Li Zexuan frowned, then whispered in a low voice.

This whispered whisper, but it happened to make He Xianling listen to him, he

couldn't help but want to vomit blood!

You are not satisfied with the four thousand business tax income of Xindao

every month? You can simply take the soldiers to the major shops in the city

to grab the money!

It seems that he can see what the county magistrate is thinking, Li Zexuan

said lightly: "You don't have to think that Benhou is big, but the commercial

tax income of Lantian County must exceed the agricultural tax as soon as

possible. Only when the commercial tax is far greater than the agricultural

tax. At that time, we have the capital to reduce and exempt farmers’ land

taxes, so that all people in Lantian County can eat and wear warmly!"

Hearing this, the county magistrate He had a storm in his heart. He did not

expect that Li Zexuan's purpose of raising commercial taxes was to reduce

agricultural taxes. At the same time, he couldn't help but respect Li Zexuan.

He thought that Lord Hou was truly thinking about the people. what!

"Master Hou treats the people kindly with benevolent governance, and the

officials admire him!"

After a moment of silence, He County Commander bowed his hand towards Li

Zexuan with a look of admiration.

"On the official side, we should benefit the people! This is what you should

do, and what you should do!"

Li Zexuan said lightly.

"The official understands!"

The county magistrate He arched his hand, and then he suddenly remembered

something, so he quickly asked: "Hou Ye, the lower official heard that the

Yanhuang Academy used electric lights last night, which can make the night

like daylight. I wonder if this electric light can be extended to the county

seat?"

Li Zexuan was a little speechless. After a moment of silence, he said quietly,

"Do you have a mine at home? The kind that can produce copper!"
