Cosmic Hegemony: I Just Want To Be A Wealthy Tyrant

Chapter 274 If You Are Talented, You Must Be Crazy

"Does anyone else have an answer?"

Tang Xiaoyu didn't give any comments and just asked Ji Xianyuan to sit back.

At this time, Sima Teng, who was sitting in the first row, slowly stood up and walked out of the queue and said:

"Your Majesty, the student is willing to answer."

Tang Xiaoyu had noticed Sima Teng a long time ago and was not surprised to see him getting up.

"Whose name is yours? How many winners will you get in this test?"

Sima Teng bowed and replied:

"Student Sima Teng, Huiyuan won the first place in this competition due to his strength."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled, okay, this guy is interesting.

Ji Xianyuan said that he was lucky enough to take second place, and this kid immediately said that he took first place due to his strength.

Crazy enough, but I like it. People are not frivolous and waste their youth.

"Very good, then, I will listen to your opinions."

After Sima Teng saluted Tang Xiaoyu again, he slowly said:

“Students feel that everything cannot be simply divided into black and white, right and wrong.

In particular, the imperial court, as the maker of national policies, must analyze issues from a neutral perspective. Only then can we see the essence of the problem clearly.

Take the issue of land as an example.

Simply making a one-size-fits-all approach is obviously wrong.

During my student study tour, my teacher and I once measured the land area of ​​our country.

The total land area of ​​our country is approximately more than 90 million hectares. Among them, mountains, forests, lakes and deserted beaches, which are unsuitable for farming, account for one fifth.

All cities, official roads, residences, and mineral deposits account for another fifth. Therefore, there are only 50 million hectares of cultivated land left.

Among them, the military land reclaimed by the imperial court accounts for 200,000 hectares, and the remaining fertile land is enough for our people to cultivate and plant.

If the imperial court gives all these fertile fields to the common people for cultivation, first of all, the common people may not be able to cultivate them.

Second, it is also easy to make false reports, false reports, waste of land, etc.

Therefore, I personally think that all land should be state-owned. The country first set aside part of the land and hoarded it as military land to prepare for wartime needs.

For the remaining land, each household can register to receive land allocated by the state based on the number of people in the family.

In order to ensure that land resources are not wasted, and to avoid some people who clearly do not want to cultivate the land, but for some benefit, they lie about registration.

Students feel that not only cannot taxes be exempted, but taxes must be paid in kind. Moreover, the state should strictly prohibit private transactions and transfers of land.

Human nature seeks profit. We cannot expect people to voluntarily abide by policies, so when formulating policies, we must consider all loopholes.

As for whether taxes will increase the burden on the people, students think this problem can be easily solved.

After taxes are collected, the state can subsidize salt, iron, and other daily necessities to the people.

Anyway, if the state doesn’t provide them with these things, they still have to pay for them. The more they pay in taxes, the more the state subsidizes them.

At that time, it not only encouraged the people to farm, but also increased the government's financial revenue, achieving multiple goals with one stone. "

After Sima Teng finished speaking, the scene fell silent. Even his father, Sima Yan, looked at his son in shock.

Who would have thought that a fledgling student, faced with an issue like national policy, would not be able to talk eloquently, but would be able to comprehensively analyze the essence of the problem from the perspective of implementation. He is truly worthy of being the top talent.

After listening to Sima Teng's reply, Tang Xiaoyu had only one thought in her mind.

This Ji Xianyuan and Sima Teng are not players of the same level at all.

People are crazy, and they do have their reasons for being crazy.

"good, very good!"

Listening to the Holy Master's comments about his son, Sima Yan couldn't even hide the smile on his face.

After hearing Sima Teng's reply, Ji Xianyuan's original unconvinced feeling disappeared in an instant. All that was left was admiration.

Bo Shang looked at Sima Teng with admiration, his love for talent was beyond words.

Upon seeing this, Tang Xiaoyu felt that there was no need to listen any more. He immediately spoke and said:

"Very good. Sima Teng is worthy of his talent. Today I hand-pick you as the number one scholar in this palace examination, and Ji Xianyuan as the second place in this palace examination. As for the flowers, I am short today, so let Shangshu Bo choose you. Sima Teng Listen to the order."

Sima Teng suppressed the joy in his heart and hurriedly got out of the queue and knelt down and said:

"Student Sima Teng accepts the order!"

"Sima Teng is the first to win three yuan in a row. He is a talented person who governs the world. I will give you a yellow mantle as a minister of household affairs. You can enter and leave the palace freely. You can come to the palace to see me at any time. Sima Teng, please thank me."

When Sima Teng heard this, he was overjoyed.

Minister of Household Affairs! That's a proper ministerial-level cadre! Second only to the six ministers, it can be said to be a high-ranking position!

When he first started his official career, he started as a minister. It's still an oily yamen like the Ministry of Finance. It's like the overwhelming wealth is coming your way!

Sima Teng's forehead hit the floor tile so hard that it left a red mark.

"Your Majesty! Sima Teng. Thank you for your kindness! Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!"

Tang Xiaoyu smiled with satisfaction, stretched, and walked towards the harem.

All civil and military officials in the court kowtowed in the direction Tang Xiaoyu was leaving.

As soon as he returned to the harem, Tang Xiaoyu went straight to Xu Fu's bedroom.

Today, it is the fifty-ninth day since Tang Xiaoyu came to the battlefield.

He has more than 150 heroes in his hands. The number of Nascent Soul-level troops in the empire has reached more than 20,000.

The remaining one million soldiers have also reached the First Revolution Foundation Building at this time, and are only one step away from the Core Formation realm.

Nowadays, Xu Fu no longer has to lead the team to clean up.

She stayed in the palace every day. In addition to her daily practice, she stayed with Tang Xiaoyu. The two of them were so entangled every day that they almost envied the gods in heaven.

Xu Fu had just finished practicing. When she heard the movement outside the door, she knew that Tang Xiaoyu was back.

She hurriedly stood up and went to meet him. Seeing Tang Xiaoyu's smile, she smiled and asked:

"My husband is so happy today, but what happy event has happened to him?"

Tang Xiaoyu stepped forward and grabbed Xu Fu's slender waist, holding her directly in front of him.

"It's nothing. I encountered something interesting today and met an interesting person, so I'm a little happy."

Tang Xiaoyu said while holding Xu Fu and walking towards the bed.

Xu Fu's face was like a red apple, and he said in a panic:

"Husband, don't do this in broad daylight. It would be terrible if someone saw this."

Tang Xiaoyu said nonchalantly:

"What happened during the day? I want to be a debauched and immoral king. Madam, if you want to be successful in life, you must enjoy yourself to the fullest. Don't let the golden bottle stand in front of the moon!"

With that said, Tang Xiaoyu put Xu Fu on the bed and began to remove her clothes one by one.
