Chapter 170: Not a Simple Handmaiden
"Hey, you're ......"
"Do you know how much an average trader can earn in a day?"
Kelsen was about to scold this messy maid, they had beaten the housekeepers too much, how could they still mess with the princess's name!
Then it was interrupted by Yuan Feiwu. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I don't know. ”
"Around 50-100 rupees. Do you think it's reasonable to charge 500 rupees for half a day's tax?"
"Uh...... Unreasonable is unreasonable, but that's ......the rule," Kelsen hesitated.
"The Northway Statutes, Article 14, Article 5, states that the tax shall be reasonably prescribed by each city lord, submitted to the cabinet for deliberation, and shall be implemented only after the adoption of a formal decree. This was the rule of the Gresky Empire, but they did not enforce it. ”
"This ...... So it's ......"
"Indiscriminate collection of taxes and fees. ”
Kelsen was speechless by Yuan Feiwu, how could this maid even memorize the dictionary-thick Northway regulations, it's so terrifying!
Yuan Feiwu wants to implement the construction of the city and legislation in the Demon Realm, and Northway is such a ready-made reference object here, of course, it is impossible to miss it. In the library, I read all the various construction methods, urban planning, and Grevery regulations, and wrote them down so that they could be used in the Demon Realm.
It's a piece of cake to memorize a random regulation.
"You don't have to worry, tell me who sets the taxes here?"
Yuan Feiwu showed a bright smile at the woman, and the woman looked at this smile and unconsciously calmed down a lot.
"The deputy city lord of Yonggu City, Emitting, has been since last month. At the beginning, the deputy city lord was just to better manage the itinerant vendors in Yonggu City, and set aside three areas for the itinerant vendors to sell together, and they were not allowed to set up stalls outside the designated area. ”
"This initiative has been unanimously approved, so that everyone can buy things in a centralized place, and the vendors do not have to think about where to go every day to sell the goods. Until last month, when everyone was accustomed to doing business in this way, the deputy lord suddenly issued an order that because it was specially set aside for itinerant traders to do business, there must be an additional tax on the site, which was 100 rupees a day. ”
"This tax was already harsh for us, but less than a week later it was added to another hundred. And it keeps increasing, and to this day, it's a thousand rupees a day!
"The taxes are so heavy, you can sell them in another place!" Kelsen couldn't help but say.
"How can we set up a stall in a place other than the area set aside by the deputy city lord, and if the internal affairs personnel find out and confiscate all the goods? We are already residents of the city, do we have to leave our hometown to trade in other cities? Now even the merchants of Tost are not willing to come to Yonggu City to do business, I am afraid that we will have to leave this ghost place too!" said the woman hated Kelsen.
I don't know if it's a delusion, but Kelsen thinks that this woman seems to be particularly disgusted with herself, is it because she dresses more like a civil servant?
"I see, you can rest assured that you can do business here, and from tomorrow onwards, it will all be fine. Yuan Feiwu patted the woman and comforted.
"Are you really sent by the princess to save us?"
"Of course, he too. The Northway has not forgotten you, and the princess will not forget her subjects, even if you are far from the capital. ”
"Thank you!"
The women hurriedly bowed down to Yuan Feiwu and Kelsen, and the other vendors who had been watching also knelt down to the two of them and thanked them gratefully.
"You don't need to thank us, if you want to thank her, thank Your Royal Highness the Princess. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Yuan Feiwu smiled and asked everyone to get up, telling them to quickly close the stall and go home, there might be some chaos for a while. The vendors thanked them again and again before they were willing to leave.
Kelsen faced everything, although his face was expressionless, but his heart was extremely surging.
Protecting the royal family in the palace every day is already a sense of mission imprinted in his mind, and he is proud of doing these things every day. However, it seems to feel good to do something good for these ordinary people outside once in a while!
Kelsen is not a fool, he has already deduced from Yuan Feiwu's words that this deputy city lord must be hiding from the king to do anything here, since this is indeed the case, he does not mind helping to solve it. Moreover, in the name of Her Royal Highness the Princess, looking at everyone's smiling faces full of expectations for Her Royal Highness, Kelsen felt that even if he returned to the castle a little later tonight, it seemed that it would be okay.
"Wait a minute. Yuan Feiwu suddenly stopped the woman who was putting away the vegetable basket and said with a smile, "You have a basket of vegetables that this uncle overturned, did you forget?
Kelsen was stunned when he heard this, and his surging mood was immediately like being poured with a basin of cold water, looking at the vegetables on the ground and staring at the round eyes. , can it be that you knocked it over by yourself! Obviously, it was thrown over by those housekeeping personnel! Do you want to throw this pot on your head!
"No, no, it's the basket that those people threw away, I don't blame you!" The woman made sure that Kelsen and Yuan Feiwu were both people who belonged to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and her attitude was much better, and she hurriedly said.
"No, I knocked you over with one punch. ”
Kelson's stomach was on fire, but he couldn't get any fire at the woman who was upset at Nanono, so he took a rupee note from his pocket and shoved it into the woman's hand.
The woman was startled when she saw it, and she didn't want to accept it: "No, no, this can buy me five days' worth of food!"
"It's okay, let you take it, we don't lack money. ”
Kelsen rolled his eyes repeatedly, and the loss of money was completely thrown on him, and others thanked him but counted himself in! This money is his personal own, what is "we"! And shameless!
"This ......"
"Go ahead, we still have official business. ”
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, Your Royal Highness!"
Although he was dissatisfied with this messy maid, Kelsen's heart was still warm to see the woman leave with a thousand thanks, and he liked this feeling.
"Hey, what's next?, can you say something when you leave?"
As soon as Kelsen turned his head, the maid had already slipped away several meters away, and if she had stayed for a few more seconds, she wouldn't even be able to find a figure!
"In a hurry, don't get distracted. ”
"You ......" Kelsen was so angry that he didn't know where to start, he hadn't lost his temper for many years, and he felt that he was gradually entering the realm of pursuing the ultimate martial artist with a pure heart and few desires, and as a result, he gave out all the temper he hadn't lost in those years today, "What are you going to do next?"
"Didn't you say it from the beginning?"
Seeing Yuan Feiwu very patiently smiled and explained to himself again, Kelsen was not moved at all.
Is this what Lao Tzu TM asked? I didn't buy any sauce at all after working in the market for a long time!
"Do you have a goal in mind? Where to buy?"
Kelsen decided to ask more directly, saving himself from playing tricks on this unpredictable maid.
"Originally, there wasn't, but now there is. Wherever the deputy city lord is, buy it there. Yuan Feiwu said with a harmless smile.
Sure enough, I have to find the deputy city lord to solve this matter!
This guy is not simple!
He only found out that there was a problem in Yonggu City from the expressions of the vendors in the market, and when he came down to take a look at it, he immediately found out the reason. Then through speculation, we can find out what the problem is, run towards the problem, and solve the problems for the common people.
The most important thing is that he put the name of asking for the people's life on the princess, so that the princess's popular will will definitely soar, which will be of great benefit to the harmony and unity within Northway! The honor is all transferred to the princess, which also shows his loyalty to the princess!
Terrible insight, terrible reasoning, terrible intelligence, no wonder to get the love of Her Royal Highness the Princess, it turned out to be a terrible talent!
If this kind of talent is firmly encircled by Her Royal Highness the Princess, it is really a great blessing for Northway! )
