Chapter 992

Qin Mu pondered slightly.

The Great Tang fleet disguised themselves as pirates and took the opportunity to wantonly capture those southern barbarians along the way.

This matter originally had nothing to do with Great Qin.

And this matter was exactly done by Jin Tian, who was undercover in Great Tang.

"Yue Lin, don't worry about the Great Tang fleet capturing those barbarians. Anyway, they are not Great Qin subjects.

There is another mystery in this matter; just let your brother and Wang Wang Xuance know."

"Don't worry about it?"

Yue Lin was stunned for a moment.

But he quickly figured it out.

The Emperor said there was another mystery, which meant this was not something Great Tang did unilaterally.

It's just that this matter was too mysterious.

How did the Emperor participate in the Great Tang fleet?

Making Great Tang people willingly work for Great Qin?

Thinking of this.

He couldn't help but feel a lot of admiration for the Emperor.

Don't look at the Emperor sitting deep in the palace; there was nothing in this world that could be hidden from him.

Awesome!

"Your Majesty, I understand; for the Great Tang fleet transporting prisoners of war, I will turn a blind eye."

Qin Mu nodded.

The people inciting rebellion in Tianzhu were also estimated to be planted by Great Tang.

But this matter was actually not worth worrying about, and Qin Mu didn't want to manage it.

Anyway, Yue Yun and the others also had to capture prisoners of war; ten million was not a small number, and they couldn't capture all the law-abiding commoners.

Having people incite rebellion was exactly what he wanted.

Or he could even help them.

Qin Mu's heart moved.

"Yue Lin, you go back and tell Yue Yun to increase the tax in the Tianzhu region to thirty percent.

Whether farming or doing business, pay thirty percent tax.

In addition, cancel all tax-exemption privileges of the nobles!"

"This..."

Yue Lin's brain couldn't turn around for a while.

"Your Majesty, shouldn't newly conquered regions pacify the people and reduce taxes to win their hearts?"

Qin Mu smiled and shook his head.

Yue Lin's cognition was a bit rigid.

"You are talking about the people of the Central Plains. It is completely useless to win the hearts of those people in Tianzhu.

No need to win them over; just use taxes to force them to rebel.

Out of the twenty million people in the Tianzhu continent, it is enough to keep half of the most obedient ones."

"Hmm..."

Yue Lin only then understood the Emperor's intention.

He thought about it carefully in his heart.

Tianzhu land produced a lot of rice.

If there were only ten million people, if each household farmed one hundred to two hundred mu of land, after paying taxes, they could still live a prosperous life.

This was also a good method.

Moreover, the thirty percent tax collected might be more than the sum of other places in Great Qin.

By then, it would definitely become Great Qin's granary.

Calculating this, he not only knew the Emperor's positioning of Tianzhu.

But also understood the Emperor's cleverness.

"The subject understands. In Tianzhu land, it is appropriate to maintain a population of ten million."

Speaking to this point, it was about enough.

Qin Mu didn't want to make too many arrangements.

How should Yue Yun and Wang Wang Xuance get along?

After they grinded, they would definitely be able to find a suitable method.

Especially now that there was a bribery and incitement case, they needed to cooperate and have a division of labor in this case.

Perhaps it was an opportunity to resolve the conflict between Wang Wang Xuance and Yue Yun.

Qin Mu only needed to look at the big picture and grasp the situation.

"Alright, then you go back and tell Yue Yun and Wang Wang Xuance my words.

Tianzhu land is vast and has many people; it is not easy to manage well. Let Yue Yun relax his heart, learn from the Western Regions, and promote more talents from his subordinates to assist him." "I will strictly follow Your Majesty's teachings!"

Yue Lin bowed and left the palace in a hurry.

Qin Mu got up and walked a few steps, wanting to go to the training room to exercise.

Wei Zhongxian followed behind and praised at the right time.

"Your Majesty is truly brilliant!"

"Hmm? What is brilliant?"

Qin Mu asked casually.

This old slave Wei Zhongxian was becoming more and more able to flatter.

He had been accompanying Qin Mu, and every time he saw Qin Mu finish handling things, he always had to praise a few words.

What was rare was that although this old slave had no culture, he had a brain and could always praise the right points.

Therefore, Qin Mu didn't find his flattery annoying.

Wei Zhongxian knew the Emperor was willing to listen, so he spoke even harder.

"Your Majesty, the dispute between Yue Yun and Wang Wang Xuance is equivalent to the dispute between generals and ministers in Tianzhu, just like Lian Po and Lin Xiangru of ancient times.

Your Majesty intentionally raised Wang Wang Xuance and let him handle that thorny case.

Once Wang Wang Xuance does it well, he will inevitably win Yue Yun's respect.

Doesn't this achieve the purpose of harmony between generals and ministers!"

Wei Zhongxian's metaphor was not bad, accurately grasping the problem of this matter.

Yue Yun and Wang Wang Xuance indeed needed mutual understanding and mutual respect.

Qin Mu's arrangement was indeed for this purpose.

"You slave, your vision is not bad."

Wei Zhongxian received Qin Mu's praise, and his old face smiled into a chrysanthemum.

"So I say, there is no person or thing in this world that can escape Your Majesty's control.

Your Majesty doesn't need to calculate; just a little bit of guidance can make things develop according to Your Majesty's ideas.

This is the number one expert of all time!"

Whether he was the number one expert or not, Qin Mu didn't care originally.

But since Wei Zhongxian insisted on saying so, he would just listen.

But this kind of skill of grasping the development of the situation in the midst of chaos was indeed the most brilliant technique.

Among famous ministers in history, not many understood this technique.

Qin Mu went to the training room.

Since destroying Goguryeo, Qin Mu had never gone out to fight a war again.

Mainly because Great Qin's territory was too large now, and the border was too far. It was no longer suitable for him, the Emperor, to lead the expedition personally.

But martial arts still had to be practiced.

Qin Mu practiced, and Wei Zhongxian praised again from the side.

"Your Majesty's divine power is astonishing, even better than the Western Chu Overlord of ancient times!"

"Your Majesty is as vigorous as a dragon... this servant means, Your Majesty is a true dragon, with the posture of a dragon swimming!"
