Chapter 470: The Difficulties of the Zhou Kingdom

The new taxes are naturally of great benefit to the people.

It's just that the merchants looked at it, and their faces suddenly collapsed slightly.

According to what is written above, they will bring goods to Xinghan City in the future, and they will have to pay taxes, and five percent is not much.

It's just that the accumulation of time is enough to make them feel distressed.

Especially what is written in it, as a business in Xinghan City, the tax is not low.

Some people don't even know that some of them have already quietly started doing business in Xinghan City.

Most people feel that it is definitely very profitable to make a few more trips directly with the goods.

It's only those who have taken root in Seonghan City and have begun to make a voice that they understand that making a voice in Seunghan City is actually very profitable.

The people of Xinghan City are all very wealthy now, who doesn't have a little money in their hands?

In terms of spending, they are not too stingy.

Therefore, there is no shop that does business here and is already on the right track, then there is no one who is not profitable.

But now that the tax is out, they will have to pay a lot of money in the future.

It's just that you can't pay it, you can make money here! Even if you pay taxes, you can still make a lot of money.

Thinking of this, all the businessmen glanced at each other, and then sighed one after another.

Come here to pay a lot of taxes, but also make a lot of money, and they don't have any other ways.

You can't stop making money because of this, right?

The people on the side were still cheering at the moment, and the merchants looked at the information carefully, and then turned to leave, they needed to know more about the details of this tax.

Some other people also came back to their senses and hurriedly applied for land.

Some people still feel that they have a piece of land in their hands, and their hearts will be more steady.

Anyway, I still want to plant a few acres of land next year.

In particular, they heard that Xinghan City had recently come up with a method of farming, which could make the crops in the fields harvest better, and the grain income per mu could reach as much as 20 buckets.

Thinking about it, they want to have more land.

There are some who are unmoved.

They calculated that as long as they worked hard in a year, they would earn much more money than farming.

With the money you earn in a year, you can buy grain for a few acres of land you grow as long as you spend some of it, so why do you have to farm the land?

It's better to bother more and make a little more money.

That's what they really think.

Everyone's thoughts are different, and some people feel that they can feel at ease if they have a piece of land in their hands.

Some people think, what is the purpose of having land?

It's better to make a little more money, anyway, if you have money, you can also buy food.

Regarding the thoughts of these people, Lu Chensheng had no intention of guiding.

There are some people who want to farm, and that's still good, but if there are no people to farm, that's a bad thing.

Many people have already begun to think about getting a piece of land, and Li Daifu immediately got busy and began to give these people various approvals.

The scorching summer days passed quickly, and autumn began.

Bai Yi had already discussed with some soldiers how to march into the grassland.

At the beginning of autumn, a group of cavalry set off at night.

Evade some people in the Old Town to avoid being discovered.

....

Cheng Zhou Guo.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the palace seems to be a little solid.

"It's just the beginning of autumn, and the autumn harvest hasn't started yet, so it's going to be a disaster?" Fire extinguished

The emperor of Chengzhou sat on the dragon chair, trembling with anger, dropped the music in his hand, and scolded angrily.

When the ministers below heard this, they all bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

They have all read the music in it, and the content in it also makes them extremely helpless.

Because of the drought in many places this year, the fields planted by the people have been lost.

But even if there was no harvest, some of the squires were not prepared to let these people go, and directly began to ask them to pay this year's tenant rent.

The people have no way to live, and this year is particularly serious.

"Your Majesty, the top priority now is to allocate funds!"

The Minister of Household on the side hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"Appropriation?"

When the emperor heard this, he immediately said angrily, "Do you have any money? Appropriation! ”

All kinds of floods in Dacang Country this year, when they came to their Chengzhou Kingdom, there were actually all kinds of droughts!

When he thought of this, he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

If they inherit the Zhou Kingdom, if there is a big Cangguo side, half of the rainfall will not be like this!

When the Minister of Household heard this, he immediately stopped talking.

There is really no money, where does the money come from!

Some time ago, the palace collapsed in many places, and if you want to repair it, you need all kinds of precious wood.

This was ordered by the emperor himself, and these timbers were not so easy to find.

In addition, the rest of the vassal kings are really not things!

After Bai Yi left, he felt that there were few generals in Chengzhou who could fight, so he secretly united to expand the army.

This kind of thing is deliberately to let the emperor know.

Now that the emperor knows, how can he not be worried and not anxious?

In a hurry, he hurriedly began to expand the army.

All of a sudden, the military department became a gold-swallowing beast, reaching out for money in various ways!

Most of the money is in the other party's pocket, and the rest is casual, spending a little there, spending a little here, and there is still money there!

The Minister of Household Affairs was also helpless.

Those vassal kings made up their minds to deliberately play the emperor like this!

Otherwise, the other party secretly expanded its armaments, and it was all expanded together, how could it be known to the emperor all at once?

The other party wants to drag down the strength of the imperial court!

Those vassal kings are all very rich!

Not to mention the money, every year I still ask the court for money, and this year I want it even more ruthlessly.

Originally, I had made some transactions with Xinghan City in the past two years and made some money.

But the amount of money you make can't afford such expenses.

Now that the local drought and locust plague have caused the people to harvest, how can the imperial court not come to the rescue?

But there's no money!

The Minister of Household wanted to allocate funds, but after thinking about the silver in the treasury, he shut up again.

There was no silver in the treasury, and even if he wanted to provide relief, he would not have the money.

The rest of the ministers have no way, seeing that the ministers of the household department have nothing to eat, how dare they talk more?

The emperor looked at the ministers below, and saw that the ministers below were all silent, and his heart was even more angry.

These things that are raised on weekdays are actually useless when it comes to the critical time!

All of them are now mute.
