Guo Dan just lightly announced the liquor tax bill.

He didn't deliberately pretend, but he didn't have the time to take care of it, he just asked the court to enact this tax law.

In terms of finance, the court is obedient to Guo Dan's order, because if they don't issue it, Guo Dan can also issue it in the form of a contract, without going through the court, anyway, the finance has nothing to do with the court.

Guo Dan is not available, and secondly, he wants to give the court a little exposure, after all, the court will withdraw if it says that it will be withdrawn, which is very hurtful to the credibility of the court.

But it caused an uproar.

It's not just Kaifeng Mansion that is making trouble, but Weihui Mansion is very fierce.

Because it hurts the interests of many people.

Especially the interests of the local big landlords, this winery has always been controlled by the landlords, and it is precisely because the landlords have enough grain in their hands that they will try their best to turn the grain into wine.

But Guo Dan also made it clear to them that such laws will only become more and more stringent in the future.

Of course, he also gave a very clear explanation.

Be! Doing so will hurt the interests of many landlords, but not doing so will hurt the interests of the entire Weihui Mansion.

This makes us very vulnerable, and in the slightest disaster we can die suddenly.

It's because we don't have enough food.

He even directly said that in the next few years, not a single grain of grain will be turned into wine.

This explanation was immediately embraced by many people.

This crisis did teach them a lesson, when the flood occurred, Wei Huifu was almost paralyzed, which was really terrible, and they did spend a lot of money to buy food during that period.

Try not to make wine with local grain, and prefer to import it.

With so many people supporting it, the landlords did not dare to arouse public anger, so they turned to attack Zhou Feng.

When Guo Dan came to Weihui Mansion, that Cao Da really ran to Guo Dan every day, with a handful of snot and tears, I have always been very supportive of you, you can't be partial to Zhou Feng's child!

Once Zhou Feng succeeds, then I can't even see his back.

Guo Dan also told Cao Da very bluntly that Zhou Feng invited many experienced winemakers, and it took a full year to turn the pumpkin into a delicious wine.

He deserved it.

If you don't accept it, you can also make better wine out of pumpkin.

I support you as well.

But this kind of thing, one step slower, at least a year slower, this is unimaginable.

However, this can be regarded as the emperor's wish, Zhou Feng has always been looking for an opportunity, you must know that he used to be one of the best in this group of businessmen, but in the past few years, he can only watch Qin Zhuang, Duan Changcun, Chen Ping and others, constantly surpassing himself.

Chen Ping's wealth is already several times his.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Ping's employees can squeeze all the Jinyu buildings of Zhou Feng in Daming.

This restaurant is really not easy to expand.

Profitability is also very limited.

And the appearance of the pumpkin this time made him see an excellent opportunity.

Liquor can be sold all over the country, including Mongolia, because it can be stored for a long time, which is very conducive to expansion.

The yield of the key pumpkin is indeed very terrifying, more than the rice in the south of the Yangtze River, and Xu Guangqi believes that it can stabilize to five times that of wheat.

As a result, the pumpkin is very cheap, and even if it is exported, the profit is very considerable.

This time he was bound to win, he used almost all his cash to gamble on it, anyway, if he didn't succeed, he would be benevolent.

After the promulgation of the liquor tax bill, the pumpkin was immediately promoted in a large area in the four provinces, because the pumpkin did not compete with grain for land, it liked the barren, causing those big landowners to frantically reclaim those wastelands.

In fact, the pumpkin has long been harvested, but the people don't like to eat it very much, which makes many landlords a little disappointed, which can only be used for disaster relief or pig raising, to the Guide Mansion side, usually plant so much, no one eats what to do, but now the pumpkin can be turned into wine, that is definitely profitable!

Guo Dan didn't care.

The only regret is that Xu Guangqi, Matteo Ricci and the entire agricultural management committee were kidnapped by these big landlords, and they dragged Xu Guangqi to inspect various places to see where they could still grow pumpkins, so Guo Dan did not meet Xu Guangqi.

However, this is also because Guo Dan hurried back to the capital, he just asked Chenchen to tell Xu Guangqi, and let Xu Guangqi finish the work here, so he went to Guide Mansion and managed the river with Shi Xing and Wei Yunzhen.

......

"My husband is back."

As soon as Guo Dan came to Yaxing, he saw Kou Zhuansha hurriedly coming over.

When he heard the voice, Guo Dan's heart sank, what was wrong with this, after seeing Kou Zhuansha's excited look, he couldn't help but put his mind at ease, and said: "Madame came out to greet me so enthusiastically, definitely not because she missed me, but because of work." ”

Kou Liansha's expression froze.

"Poof!"

Zhu Yaoyao on the side laughed a little.

Kou Zhuansha glared coldly and said, "Come to my office to talk." ”

With that, he turned and left.

Guo Dan looked at Zhu Yaoyuan and Xiaoxiao depressedly, and said, "I was really miserable by you." ”

When Zhu Yaoyuan heard this, she immediately felt guilty and said, "I'm sorry, I ......!" ”

Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Yang Feixu suddenly said: "Don't be sorry, he just likes to be scolded by his wife." ”

"How so?"

Guo Dan glared at Yang Feixu angrily.

Yang Feixu said seriously: "Why do you want to be a son-in-law? ”

Zhu Yaoyuan and Xiaoxiao all looked at Guo Dan with gossip on their faces.

“....... Xiao An, go buy me a hundred catties of aphrodisiacs. ”

Guo Dan held back for a long time, threw down this sentence fiercely, and left angrily.

Yang Feixu frowned slightly, and scolded in a low voice: "Indecent." ”

......

Coming to the president's office, Kou Zhuansha said coldly: "Close the door." ”

Guo Dan closed the door, came to Kou Zhuansha, and said with a smile: "Madam, I'm just a ......!" ”

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Kou Liansha directly took out a letter and handed it to Guo Dan, "This is the news that Mr. Shen just came, as of this month, we have sold 100,000 taels of goods, and our profit is as high as 50,000 taels, which has removed our freight and storage costs." ”

"It seems that the lure pigeons are up to the task." Guo Dan's face was overjoyed, and he quickly took the letter and read it.

But he didn't know that Kou Liansha had been watching him.

"Husband, you're right." Kou Zhuan Sha said suddenly.

Guo Dan raised his head and looked at Kou Zhuansha suspiciously.

Kou Zhuisa smiled bitterly, "This is definitely the most profitable deal we've ever made, and... And the Luwang Mansion has just begun. ”

When she saw the letter, she immediately felt that all the transactions she had made before were boring.

That's a little too big.

Not to mention the past, now a single transaction worth more than 10,000 yuan is definitely a big deal.

But now, to put it mildly, it's 100,000 taels, and the profit alone is tens of thousands of taels.

It can be seen that Guo Dan took great pains to promote overseas plans, and it was definitely worth it.

It's so lucrative.

What made her even more excited was that they had just swept a million taels of goods on the market.

This...!

It's definitely going to take off!

Guo Dan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The business we did before was between businessmen and merchants, how much money can be made from this, and now it is between countries, this order of magnitude is naturally not at the same level, and the key is that this is not all our business, this is Your Majesty's business." ”

"Yes, if it weren't for Your Majesty, we wouldn't have been able to achieve such a high profit, after all, we didn't pay taxes and spend money to make points." Kou Zhuansha nodded, using the emperor to explain, her mood calmed down a little, and asked again: "Husband, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”

"Not going for a while."

Guo Dan said: "At present, it is just the beginning of contact, let Shen Weijing go and practice, there are still some problems that have not been dealt with here, madam, you have to understand one thing, although overseas plans to make money, but without domestic production support, then everything is a mirage." ”

Kou Zhuan Sha nodded.

Guo Dan suddenly smiled and said, "But I have to hurry up to Your Majesty to ask for merit and make Your Majesty happy, after all, I have always promised before, and I have not yet proved that my overseas plan is absolutely feasible." ”

......

Qianqing Palace.

"What do you say... This month, Luwangfu earned 50,000 taels? ”

Wanli got up abruptly and looked at Guo Dan with wide eyes.

"Yes."

Guo Dan nodded and said, "We sold a total of 100,000 taels of goods, and the net profit reached 50,000 taels." ”

"Such a high profit?" Wanli was about to cry with joy.

Guo Dan said: "Your Majesty, if it is only this little profit, then our overseas plan is not very significant, now it is just the beginning, and the exported goods are basically to Japan, which can still be done." ”

“......？”

Wanli blinked, trembling lips and said, "That... So you say... Say it should... How much should I earn? ”

Guo Dan said: "Based on 100,000 taels of goods, our profit should reach 150,000 taels." ”

“......！”

Speaking human language, I don't understand.

Wanli puffed out his eyes and stared at Guo Dan.

No cerebral hemorrhage! Guo Dan hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the main silk in this trade is all Japanese, and the letter also told me that the comparative price of my Ming and Japanese silk is one to four, plus Japan's lack of silk, and my Ming silk is better than Japan's local silk, and most of the profits in this are made by middlemen to make ......" ”

Wanli interrupted him rudely, "What do you say, one to four, that is, I earn 50,000 taels, and they earn 250,000 taels?" How can this be, are they still the emperor! ”

"Your Majesty, they are Japanese."

"What about the Japanese, the wild monkeys who live in the land of projectiles, they want to recognize me as the Son of Heaven, and I still look down on them." Wanli is arrogant and does not feel embarrassed at all.

"That's, that's, but Your Majesty, even so, this account can't be counted like that." Guo Dan said: "We are a family to earn 50,000 taels, they are a lot of families to share that part of the profits, and for now, they should make this money, because the cost of running at sea is high, the risk is very large, and people and money may be empty at any time, if there is not enough profit, they will not come all the way to buy silk in my Daming, but then as our pirate army becomes stronger, this part of the profit will also be ours." ”

"It turns out that being a pirate is so profitable, no wonder this pirate couldn't be suppressed back then."

Wanli nodded thoughtfully, and said to Guo Dan: "You have to quickly form our pirate army, and you will earn 250,000 taels less this month, and this year, it will almost reach the silver tax of our treasury." ”

Speaking of the back, his eyes were slightly red.

I'm so pitiful!

But Guo Dan is always depressed, this fat man doesn't like to count the cost of others, even if our pirate army is formed, we can't make so much, and we usually have to spend a lot of money to support those pirates, as well as ships, artillery, birds, and war losses.
