Chapter 127: 'Tenoi Trojan'! Fire!
As Gong Ao and the other Guo clansmen showed their business letters, the faces of the guards changed suddenly.
Nine hundred and sixty catties of gold, for them, it is already a wound to their muscles and bones, but gritting their teeth, they may be able to support it, but now Guo's show is forty percent of the profits.
The guard general was immediately blushed with anger, and scolded angrily in his heart, "The thief of the merchant is also! If you knew this was the case, it would be better to force it directly! ”
Seeing the face of the guard, Gong Ao frowned, and the Guo clan couldn't help but be vigilant.
Even Sergeant Zhao in the back had an ugly face.
The guard general suppressed the anger and said: "When the country is in trouble, for personal gain, you and other businessmen are abandoning Zhao Land, and you will not be able to deceive you if you have forty percent of the benefits." ”
Gong Ao said: "The general has such a big hat, we are businessmen, and we follow the law, how can it be called personal gain?" Forty percent of the profits, one of the achievements is the country's taxes, according to the system of business, according to the degree of tax payment, you say that we are seeking personal gain, where does the private come from, do you mean, do you mean that Guo Bushi is seeking personal gain? Or is it that I, Guo, spent 800 catties of gold on the goods, and I will give them to you for nothing? ”
The guard was speechless for a moment, and could only glare at Gong Ao angrily.
When Gong Ao saw it, he was not afraid, and said, "Could it be that the general wants to forcibly expropriate my Guo family's goods?" General, when you proposed to buy our goods with military salaries, do you want me to wait for businessmen to not pursue profits? According to your thoughts, what city are you still defending? ”
"General, if you want to repent, break your word and get fat, I have nothing to say, but I can guarantee that just by saying that Guo Bushi is seeking personal gain, you and the clan behind you will pay a huge price, and besides, you and the generals already have a name for injustice, if you continue to do unrighteous things, how can this Que and the city have a foothold? I also hope that the general will act and think twice. ”
Gong Ao's words blocked the retreat of the guards.
It is evident that if you dare to break your word, I will spread your deeds to the ears of all the people of the city, and who will trust an unrighteous army to protect them.
Originally, if it was changed to Jinyang and other cities of Zhao State, Gong Ao's words would not be able to provoke him, but this is Que He, once Gong Ao really did this, the unrest of the people who they had finally calmed down in the past few days would be in vain.
But did the generals dare to do anything to the Guo family.
Guo Kai has a hundred ways to kill you, and the clan behind you will be implicated.
The guard general wanted to kill Gong Ao with one sword, but he couldn't, he said sharply and introvertedly: "You dare to threaten this general...... Shi is Ben will lose his word, but when will Ben say that he will break his word and get fat! Thirty percent, three percent profit, according to the legal system of Zhao State, this is more than the purchase and sale is in my que, this will be used for military baggage can be tax-free, you wait for the profit of thirty percent, and there is no loss. ”
The guard means that I will let you earn 30% of the profits, but you will not pay taxes, and the materials used will be reported as military baggage.
Gong Ao smiled and said: "Between countries and countries, there are still laws and treaties when they sign covenants, and I naturally have business deals, and the general has no basis for saying it, if you regret it, what evidence do I have?" ”
Gong Ao's words made Guo also nod.
Because if this batch of goods is handed over to the defenders in the city, what if the defenders regret it and refuse to admit it, even if Guo Kai is on it, but there is no basis for his words.
"What are you going to do?"
Gong Ao said: "It's very simple, since this batch of goods is used as military baggage, it is necessary to report to the tax officer to fill in the tax book, with the tax book, I am not afraid of you and regret it." ”
The guard's eyes widened, and he said fiercely: "Merchant, you are shrewd!" ”
What does Gong Ao's words mean, if this batch of goods is to be used as military baggage, it is necessary to go to the Tian tax officer, and when he enters the Tian tax officer, he will have a certificate.
The voucher will state how much the military pay and how much material has been purchased, and after everything is done, the tax collector will put this batch of goods into the warehouse, and then make a book, and finally transfer it to the army to become a baggage.
Moreover, this tax book will be kept in the Tianbu Prefecture Order, that is, Guo Kai, and the local officials will be kept here, and there is a certificate that is in the hands of Guo, only in this way, no one can rely on it, and Guo will not be afraid of the defenders repenting.
If you dare not give it, I will take the tax book to Handan, and then hand it over to Guo Kai, Guo Kai is the boss of the Tianbu official, is he too lazy to get rid of it?
Gong Ao continued: "If the general agrees, I will order someone to send this batch of goods to the tax warehouse, after the tax book is made, the general will order someone to extract it from the tax warehouse, the link here can not be reduced, and please forgive the general, after all, the general has no evidence, and I don't believe you, general." ”
What does the so-called irreducible link mean, that is, I promised to sell it to you, but I will follow the legal system, and after entering the tax warehouse, it is a matter between your army and the tax warehouse.
Otherwise, in order to avoid trouble, you say that I have already bought it anyway, let you directly drag the goods to the barracks, and then let us go to the tax warehouse to make a record, so that there will be mistakes in the middle, and there is no such trust relationship between us.
As for why they didn't collect the gold, because they couldn't get out of the city.
The guard said: "Since the general agreed, he will come according to the rules, an hour, the general will give you an hour at most, and after an hour, the general will lead someone to collect the baggage." ”
After the guards left, forty carts of cotton and linen were loaded with the cooperation of hundreds of people and pushed to the tax warehouse in the city.
During the Warring States period, most of the tax warehouses were stored with grain, and the common people usually paid grain taxes.
Of course, there are also cloth coins, knife coins, round coins and ant nose coins, which are mainly aimed at the world, and the coins do not take up any space.
Therefore, in the tax warehouse, the main storage is grain, grain in the Warring States period, will be paid to the monarch treasury, there are also local tax warehouses, these are separated, one after another large warehouses stand in the southeast corner of Que and .
And Gong Ao and others went to the treasury tax warehouse.
Soon, they met the tax collector Tian, and it was estimated that someone on Ran Jin's side had already informed the tax collector about the registration of the tax collector.
Therefore, as soon as Gong Ao and the others arrived, the tax officer had been waiting for some time.
As soon as he saw Gong Ao and the other Guo family, his face was quite enthusiastic.
Who is the top boss of the Tian tax officer, Guo Kai, and who is the clan in front of him, the Guo clan, even if he looks down on the merchants, but the caravan in front of him cannot be offended, and from a certain level, the Tian tax officer of Que and is on the side of Gong Ao.
The tax officer said: "Mr. Gong, the book has been made, just wait for both parties to sign and seal." ”
Gong Ao was also very surprised by the speed of the tax collector, but he quickly understood.
After both parties sign and seal, it will be retained, and a copy will be kept in Guo Kai's hands.
Gong Ao said: "The tax envoy has a heart. ”
Tax Officer Tian smiled, lowered his voice and said: "The envoy is clear from beginning to end, please rest assured that Mr. Gong will definitely handle it impartially." ”
Gong Ao said with a smile: "The tax envoy acts fairly and strictly, and when I return to Handan, I will definitely mention to Guo Jun what the tax envoy did today and the help he has given to the Guo family." ”
When the tax collector heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "This is the envoy's business, and it is in accordance with the system, don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Mr. Gong, hurry up and enter the warehouse!" ”
As soon as Gong Ao heard it: "Don't you count the number of goods?" ”
As soon as the tax collector heard it, "It has been counted, and it is the number in the book!" ”
For the tax collector, counting is a waste of time, and he said that no matter how cunning the businessman is, especially in the tax book, it is impossible to lack two catties in the baggage, and if he really wants to count it, it may not be enough in one day.
Of course, the main reason for this is naturally because of Guo Kai!
Soon, the baggage of the forty-eight carts was pushed into the tax warehouse, and as soon as Gong Ao entered, he looked at the tax warehouse, stacked with bags of grain two people high.
Soon, the Guo clan people came out of the warehouse, and the warehouse was closed by the guards sergeant.
From the cart to the tax warehouse, only half an hour passed, and Gong Ao agreed with them that it was an hour, and the remaining half an hour, Gong Ao and the tax envoy chatted eagerly.
Gong Ao looked at the tax warehouse behind him, and said in his heart: "The general has been planning for so long, and he has finally lived up to his expectations." ”
……
In the tax warehouse, forty-eight huge carriages were piled with silk cotton and other goods, and when about a stick of incense, suddenly, forty carts began to shake, and even the goods piled up on the carriages seemed to be pushed by people, and for a time the goods tumbled and tumbled to the ground.
Soon, two or three figures came out of each vehicle, and there were nearly 100 people in total.
Some of them quickly turned something out of the carriage, and then there was a stirring and a slight fire, and then they saw each other's faces, each of which was shocked and ecstatic.
"We're in, this ...... This is the granary of Queyou! ”
"Finally got in, and Shuai's plan was completed."
"Great work!"
They looked around, it was all grain, all kinds of grain, all kinds of grain, all the grain taxes paid by the people.
Gong Ao's plot had already begun to prepare when he entered the city, and even the way out had already been prepared, why did they have to come to the treasury tax warehouse, because Gong Ao's stepping point was here, and not far from here, there was a hole in the ground.
The cave in the ground has been dug a long time ago, but the garrison of the granary generally has a thousand people, and they can mix into the area of the tax warehouse from the hole in the ground, but they can't get inside, but if they find a way to get inside, once it is done, they can escape through the hole in the chaos.
This is Su Zheng's, Tenoi Trojan's strategy!
……
At this time, the eyes of the 30,000 Qin soldiers were sharp, staring at the figure of the Zhao soldiers on the city tower, their expressions were full of fighting spirit and determination to win, as long as Wang Di gave an order, they could sacrifice themselves to rush to the city, fearless of life and death.
Wei Jing said: "General, the morale of our army is at its peak, and it is an opportunity to storm the city!" ”
Wang Yi shook his head and said: "Although our army is prosperous, rushing to the city at this time, it must be half of life and death, which is against the will of General Su, wait a minute, General Su said, the city has changed greatly, and the 20,000 soldiers of our army who have fallen into battle will live or die!" ”
Wei Jing sighed: "General Su, this is for the lives of my Great Qin soldiers, Great Qin has General Su, why not sweep the world, how can the soldiers not love it!" ”
Wang Yi looked at Wei Jing: "General Su also said that after killing all the Que and Zhao troops, no one will be left." ”
……
Jinyang, the mansion where Su Zai temporarily lives!
There was only a dim candle in the room, and the light flickered slowly, illuminating Su Zheng's figure.
Su Zai stood in front of the table, holding a brush in his hand!
He looked at the brush and muttered, "I don't know if Meng Tian has made this thing." ”
In the past few days, Su Zheng has nothing to do, and made one out of horsehair.
In front of Su Zheng, a finger of silk silk had already been placed,
Subsequently, he held a pen and wrote the silk silk, but the font written was not a small seal.
"The fire in the upper valley can't burn the chaotic ministers and thieves, and the autumn wind in the Wuzhang Plains can't blow the frost and cold sound."
These two sentences are talking about the fire attack of Wuhou in Su Zheng's memory.
Su Zai muttered: "With the mountains at the back, the wind of the east canyon mountain road surging to the west, and the southeast fire together, you can take advantage of the wind to spread the whole city. ”
