Chapter 412: It's too embarrassing
"Brother Jiang, you're just... How can you spill your anger on Zhao Qinghe's heads, if you do this, it will be difficult for both of us to do it! ”
Huang Daxiao, who returned to his residence, couldn't help but complain to Jiang Yinglan.
He thinks that Jiang Yinglan did not give enough support.
Jiang Yinglan, who had just sat down, snorted, jumped up again, and roared: "You said I sprinkled my anger on their heads? I'll tell you straight today, I'm angry with them, you look at what they are doing, evading taxes, occupying the water, instigating the people to smash and loot, they are using us as a knife.
We were ordered to supervise Guo Dan here, not to protect their interests, and now for them, we are embarrassed in front of Guo Dan. Great effect, you listen to my advice, our words are based on words, words out of virtue, out of reason, if there is no virtue and no reason, how can we stand? ”
Huang Daxiao said: "But has Brother Jiang ever thought about it, if there was no Guo Dan's appearance, how could it be like this, it was Guo Dan who broke the rules first." ”
Jiang Yinglan said: "Could it be that before Guo Dan, they didn't evade taxes and occupy the water?" This is all Guo Dan asked him to do? Why are you still arguing for them? You're a fool! ”
"You say I'm confused, I think it's you!"
Huang Daxiao said: "They are tax evasion, but since ancient times, there is no such thing in any dynasty, but there is a situation in which dynasty has merchants contracting the state capital, Guo Dan's behavior is to destroy the foundation of our dynasty, this everything has priorities, we must first deal with Guo Dan, not against the gentry who support us." ”
Jiang Yinglan sneered: "Although this acute illness is painful, it is rarely fatal, and the real fatal thing is precisely the alleviating disease." You're right, this kind of thing has happened in all dynasties, but which dynasty and which generation did not die in this matter. That's all I say, it's up to you whether I listen to it or not, I won't care about Zhao Qinghe and Guo Dan anymore. ”
So saying, he went back to his bedroom.
A few days ago, he was actually very unhappy about this matter, and he really looked at Huang Daxiao's face, so he went with him, but now he can't bear it anymore, he has never been so embarrassed. Because he is a very self-disciplined person, he has never done anything that violates morality, so he can always stand on the moral high ground to blame others, but others can't grasp his handle.
But this time, he and Zhao Qinghe stood together, and they were repeatedly toyed with by Guo Dan, and they were speechless.
By now, he has also seen that Guo Dan has already set a trap and is waiting for them to take the bait.
Having said that, Zhao Qinghe and Guo Dan played demagogic routines, and they really lit up the lights in the toilet.
Pure death!
Guo Dan is from the most notorious Wall Street in the United States, and in terms of people's demagogic routines, they are really strange and endless, even if you read a newspaper every day, you can learn a lot.
In this routine, not to mention the gentry of Kaifeng Mansion, that is, the gentry of the world, what is Guo Dan afraid of.
In fact, Guo Dan can strike first, just like he was in Weihui Mansion at the beginning, just because this time he was subject to a lot of restrictions, if he strikes first, he doesn't know if Jiang Yinglan will catch them.
Therefore, he did not shoot the big move of the academy as soon as he came up, but hid this killer weapon, the purpose of which was to seduce the other party to take the bait, let the other party attack him, and then return the favor with the other way.
In this way, even if it is full of flaws, Jiang Yingyan and they can only swallow the bitterness in their stomachs.
You can't beat it, and you can't talk about it.
This time, the gentry were pressed to the ground by Guo Dan and rubbed fiercely.
With such a good opportunity, Guo Dan naturally would not let it go, and immediately took advantage of the situation.
Began to recruit with great fanfare.
The routine is still the usual routine of the capitalists, that is, to work for relief.
He had to restrict business, and he couldn't use it to solve the employment problem, so he had to use the Daxing project to alleviate the problem temporarily.
In fact, the crisis in Kaifeng Province was due to the annexation of a large number of land, which led to the loss of land for many peasants, and at the same time, the loss of population led to the loss of tax revenue, and the officials almost collapsed because of the obstruction.
Previously, Guo Dan had been emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, formulating tax collection rules, and not solving the problem of unemployment.
The 200,000 taels were smashed, and the unemployment crisis was immediately suspended.
Now if you want to find trouble with Guo Dan, it is almost impossible to get it, and tens of thousands of people are counting on Guo Dan to feed.
And many businessmen also began to support Guo Dan.
This is the legendary son-in-law of the Kou family, no matter where he goes, he spends a lot of money.
They opposed Guo Dan before, that was because Guo Dan's behavior made them very disappointed, when you went to Weihui Mansion, it was all sprinkled with money, but when you came to our Kaifeng Mansion, not only did you not sprinkle money, but also restricted commercial development.
And now that Guo Dan has smashed two such big projects, he will not talk to Guo Dan at this time, but when.
Guo Dan's prestige is increasing day by day.
In the face of such a strong Guo Dan, the gentry class headed by Zhao Qinghe finally couldn't resist, there is a way, the gentry do not suffer immediate losses, this ditch is not opened, the whole spring will be delayed, and the payment of taxes is only part of it.
Besides, if he doesn't pay taxes, Guo Dan, a profiteer, still has to collect interest, and the devil knows what way Guo Dan will think of to force them to pay the interest.
They honestly made up all the taxes, and at the same time strictly implemented the standards set by Guo Dan, and opened ditches to divert water.
Zhou Wangfu.
"Amazing, amazing, Your Excellency is really a good means, it only took a few days to make Zhao Qinghe and others bow down and obey orders, it's really breathtaking! Ha ha! ”
Zhou Wang Zhu Suqin shook his head and laughed.
In fact, during this period, he was so panicked, because Zhou Wangfu's butt was not clean, and his shop was also smashed, this kind of thing happened to Zhou Wangfu for the first time.
Now I can breathe a sigh of relief.
"The prince has won the award, this is not my work, I just do things according to the rules." Guo Dan waved his hand and said modestly.
Zhu Suqin shook his head and smiled: "The most rare thing in this world, I'm afraid it's just this way to do things." ”
Guo Dan sighed, and then laughed.
That's a big truth!
After some business blowing, Zhu Suqin said again: "Guo Dan, when do you think that store will be opened?" ”
Although he got a windfall income, but half of it was Guo Dan, but he also paid the price, many of his stores were closed by Guo Dan, you must know that he has a lot of economic privileges, such as part of the salt tax in Kaifeng Mansion, which is his income, and the profits in it are also very considerable.
Guo Dan said: "Wait patiently for the prince, because this matter is not over yet." ”
"This tax has been collected, and it hasn't been finished yet?" Zhu Suqin was surprised.
Guo smiled lightly: "It's just their duty to pay taxes, I haven't started to make money yet, I'm a businessman, or I don't make money, I'm here to do anything." ”
Zhu Suqin listened with a puzzled expression.
.....
Zhangde Zhao Wangfu.
This King Zhao lineage, because in the later years of Chengzu, there was a bad heart, although the Ming Renzong let him go, but since then, the Zhao Wangfu has been unknown.
"Lord Wang, Tangyin Chen Wanren sent a hundred stones of grain, saying that he was paying taxes to our Zhao Wangfu."
The housekeeper came to the hall and reported to Zhu Changqing, the king of Zhao.
Zhu Changqing was stunned for a moment, and then said: "That means that Guo Dan has won the victory in Kaifeng Mansion?" ”
The steward replied, "I heard that the gentry of Kaifeng Mansion have paid all the taxes to the local vassal clan. ”
"This merchant really has some means." Zhu Changqing muttered.
Everything that happened in Kaifeng Mansion, the clans and gentry of Zhangde Mansion and Huaiqing Mansion were all watching, because these three mansions were contracted by Guo Dan, among which the gentry and vassal kings of Kaifeng Mansion were the most powerful.
When the gentry saw that this situation was not right, they hurried to pay the tax, lest they lose face in the future, and the ditch was filled, and they had to make up for the tax, which was really more than worth the loss.
The housekeeper asked, "Lord Wang, shall we accept this grain or not?" ”
Zhu Changqing said: "Of course accept it, there is no reason not to want this to be sent to the door, but we can't hang on Guo Dan's tree like Zhou Wangfu." Ahem, you just tell them this, let them not worry, Guo Dan didn't come to Zhangde Mansion, what the hell, it's not necessarily, let them pull the grain back first, the agreement between us is still valid, and this king will definitely keep his promise. ”
"The villain understands."
The steward bowed, and went out.
As a result, Zhao Wangfu was forced to accept the 100 stone of grain.
Those big landlords are not stupid, who are you Zhao Wang pretending to show you, when Guo Dan comes, you don't have to let me pay taxes, pull it back now, and then you have to transport it back, and the loss will be even more.
The same is true of Huaiqing Mansion, those landlords and gentry hurriedly paid taxes to the local feudal clan, while Guo Dan did not come, we can still tacitly understand, when the situation changes, we can continue to cooperate, don't tear your face for Guo Dan.
.....
The smoke of the Kaifeng Mansion had just dissipated, and inadvertently, everyone suddenly found that the entire Kaifeng Mansion gradually became lively.
Many people from other places appeared in Kaifeng Province, they came from all directions, and there were more and more of them.
These people are either the children of rich families, or the children of official eunuchs, they are all coming to private colleges, this long journey to come here, I wanted to eat and drink well, where do you know, Kaifeng Mansion has a famous restaurant is not open.
"Why is this restaurant all closed?"
"If I knew this, let's play in Weihui Mansion for a few more days, and this way down, it is still the most comfortable when we are in Weihui Mansion."
"We're not here to eat, drink and have fun, let's go to the small wine shop next to us and have some food."
......
The people from the capital should have been the first to arrive in Kaifeng Mansion, because they were the first to hear the news, but they had been playing in Weihui Mansion for a while, where there was everything now, and under the support of Zhangde Mansion, it was like heaven.
But after all, they are scholars, and they are very eager to come to Kaifeng Mansion to participate in this literati event, so they didn't play for too long, so they rushed to Kaifeng Mansion, but they never thought that Kaifeng Mansion is not as good as Zhangde Mansion, and there is not even a decent restaurant, all of them are small wine shops and small tea shops.
When two young men came to a liquor store, they didn't get in, and a bartender hurried out, "I'm really sorry, the shop is about to close." ”
The young man was surprised, "This noon has not even passed, why is it closed?" ”
The people around him heard the bustle inside, and said, "Your business here is good!" Is this the custom of your Kaifeng Mansion? ”
The bartender said with a sad face: "It's because the business is so good, from the morning to now, the shop has always been full, and the wine and food prepared by the shop have been sold out, only... It can only be closed. ”
“......!”
The two young men were speechless.
No one could have thought that when they came to the dignified Kaifeng Mansion, they couldn't eat or even drink tea if they had money, so they could only say that the timing of their arrival was too wrong.
Guo Dan had just emphasized agriculture and suppressed business, and they came.
It's so embarrassing!
Zhao family compound.
"Master, we have to open the door quickly, now that there are so many guests, if our restaurant can open the door, the little tax we pay is nothing, and we will be able to earn it back soon."
The housekeeper who specializes in helping Zhao Qinghe take care of the business is so anxious.
He has been doing business for so many years, and he has never encountered this situation, looking at the white flowers and money, he just can't make money, and the small wine shops on the side are almost dying, and they close at noon every day.
What a feeling it is.
Zhao Qinghe was also depressed and said, "I also want to open the door, but Guo Dan won't let me." Heavy agriculture and suppress business, heavy agriculture and suppress business, which stupid person came up with it, I am really angry. ”
The housekeeper said: "Master, we have paid our taxes, and the ditch has been rectified, there is no need to care about this face, you go and talk to Guo Dan, let's open this shop first, I heard that there are still many people on the road, and they are all rich people, if you miss it, it will be a huge loss!" ”
