Jin Huan never dreamed that he, who was good at becoming a gentleman and a leopard, would actually lose, and he would lose badly.

Through unremitting efforts, he finally turned the compensation of 37 million taels into 50 million taels!

The extra part is used to clean up the households in the six towns and four counties.

In Da Ming's view, this is a very reasonable asking price. Without the consent of Daming, a large number of people migrated to the land of Daming, and lived for more than 100 years!

Is there still such a villain in the world?

You have to clean it up, if you can't do it, then you can only ask Daming to make a move, and Daming will make a move, and it will also cost money, so I added 13 million taels, which should be fun.

Roughly speaking, the Ming Dynasty took compensation from North Korea, and then on the other side, after the Jurchens plundered the Korean prisoners, they were sent to Chengde for sale, and the Ming Dynasty also had to collect a tax.

Wang Yue did not feel guilty at all about this kind of behavior of eating two fish, and he even felt that a way should be drawn for the North Korean side, which was "people for peace."

Daming has suffered too much over the years, he just collected some principal, and he hasn't asked for interest yet!

I, Wang Yue, is a kind person!

The kind-hearted Wang Yue also decided to show great mercy once, and he wanted to hold a tea party in the official residence.

"The list is ready, right? I signed it myself and sent it out. ”

Wang Yue said to Xu Jie.

Xu Jie was so happy about Master's request, Master finally found something that the chief official should do, that is, to sign a few names if he has nothing to do, enjoy everyone's praise, live in a luxurious house, and ride in a wide carriage...... As for the real power, it is better to leave it to these professionals.

This is also the way of being an official and the way of doing things that Xu Jie, after consulting with Yang Yiqing and others, combined with his own experience, although there are still shortcomings, but the general direction is like this.

After three days of intense preparations, one by one invitations with Wang Yue's autograph were sent out, and everyone from all walks of life in Chengde looked at each other, and everyone wanted to know what this protector of the capital, what he favored, what he valued, and what he liked.

Is it a literati and a Confucian scholar, or a martial artist, a Han Chinese, or a Mongolian Jurchen nobleman...... All in all, as the biggest leader, let's set a tone for the big guys!

"Grandpa! Look, this is an invitation from Lord Togo! ”

A young man brought the invitation to an old man with a sixtieth birthday.

The old man's face was red and full of energy, he glanced at it, and said casually: "Lord Duhu invited me?" Is this appropriate? If people are willing to come, let's do the east, please protect the adults. Don't be afraid to spend money, invite a few more troupes to come over, sing a good show, and be lively! ”

When the young man heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh, "Grandpa, everyone is busy protecting adults!" How can you come to our house? This time, it's not just one of you, but a lot of people! ”

"So many people?" The old man was even more unhappy, "They are all dignitaries, I am a man in the rivers and lakes, what am I going to do!" Don't go! ”

"Grandpa!" The young man was really anxious, "You are always too stubborn, otherwise you would not have been kicked out of the hospital, but don't worry!" This time it's not anything else, it's that you've been paying taxes for a long time, and you're all protecting the adults who want to see you, not only you, but many other people, furriers, salt merchants, cattle sellers, mining farms, and labor buyers! ”

"Ahh

Old man Li called out, "Is this okay?" He is an official, and he even invites human traffickers, does he want to be decent? ”

The young man shook his head again and again, "Grandpa, don't talk nonsense when you are old, if you have money, what kind of decency do you need!" ”

The old man looked at his grandson, checked the gilded invitation in his hand, and smiled slightly.

"It's done, grandpa knows what to do."

The next day, the old man Li took a carriage and came to the Duhu Mansion, and what was very surprising was that a young official, a very handsome little man, with a lovely smile, was waiting for everyone.

Seeing Old Man Li coming, he hurriedly took the initiative to come over, "You are Mr. Li Fengshan from the Heavenly Medicine Hall, right?" ”

The old man hurriedly said, "It's Xiao Lao'er, who are you?" ”

"I am joining the army in the Duhu Mansion, my name is Xu Jie, this time it is Uncle Fuyuan, Lord Duhu invites you to come over, of course, there are many virtuous and celebrity, you want to talk to the big guy, you can respond to any request, Lord Duhu will solve it for you on the spot, of course, this request must be reasonable."

Li Fengshan said in his heart that we are grass people, do we dare to talk to the government about unreasonable demands? You don't bully us, just come in this time, it's just to make up a number, run a trick, and when I can really speak!

Li Fengshan nodded and walked in.

After entering the hall, Li Fengshan was startled.

There are really a lot of people here, not to mention the accents, and even the skin color is strange, how can there be barbarians!

Not only that, but there was also a bearded man who was arguing with Wang Yue with a strange accent, "We carry gold and silver, and we trade in Tianjin, so we don't need to worry." But when we arrived in Chengde with gold and silver, there were constant difficulties on the road, and taxes were levied. ”

Wang Yue smiled with a smile on his face, "This is indeed a problem, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, you have to pay taxes if you carry your property through customs." ”

"So, can I not pay taxes?"

"It's absolutely impossible!"

Yishang still didn't give up, "But, but we are, we are buying your goods and paying taxes, so we can't buy so many things!" ”

Wang Yue smiled, "It's not impossible, the imperial court has set up a bank in Tianjin, you can deposit the money in the bank, so that you can withdraw it in Chengde, it only costs one percent of the handling fee, and the upper limit is three hundred taels." As for the goods you buy in Chengde, we will issue you an official document, and as long as you pay taxes at the customs once, you can go to sea and ship them back to your country. ”

The Yishang thought for a while, "I, I'm not at ease, let's save the money and deposit it in your bank!" ”

Wang Yue said with a smile: "Because of this, I will invite you to come over and explain to you clearly, after all, this is guaranteed by the credit of the Ming Dynasty and the imperial court, do you think that the Ming Dynasty will damage its reputation for a little money?" ”

Yi Shang thought about it patiently, and finally nodded, "I have to add 100,000 taels, all of which will be used to buy iron!" ”

"Naturally, there is no problem with this, in addition to ironware, we will also introduce some furniture, excellent quality beeswax, and some woolen fabrics, I am sure you will like it."

Yi Shang pondered for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "I have one more request, I, I want to buy some books, I want to take them back, I want our kings and officials to know, what is, what is...... Civilization! ”

Wang Yue laughed, "I'll give you a few clever interpreters, come, I wish us a win-win situation!" Wang Yue said, really raised his wine glass, and touched it with this Yi merchant.

His actions caused another round of exclamations.

This Xiyi merchant may not have known Wang Yue's status yet, but just regarded him as an ordinary high-ranking official.

But these businessmen of the Ming Dynasty all know that this is not only a big official, but also a confidant of the Son of Heaven!

It is also a famous general with continuous victories.

Right now, he is still the Emperor of the Soil in the North!

Absolutely one or the other, life and death.

At the beginning, everyone didn't dare to talk to him, which allowed Yishang to take the lead. Looking at it now, Wang Yue is so approachable, and the big guys are bold.

A middle-aged man stood up and said, "My lord, I, I'm a food trafficker!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yue walked over with a smile, "I know you, your name is Xu Zhong, right?" This time, you alone sold 300,000 stone of grain to the north, and you have made a great contribution! ”

"Your Excellency praised it." Xu Zhong hurriedly said: "As the saying goes, you don't transport grain for thousands of miles, this time we transported the grain to Tianjin, and then sent it to the north, and the loss on the way is still not small...... I, I have a plan, that is, in the northern Tuntian, I wonder if the adults can provide convenience? ”

Wang Yue smiled: "What's so difficult about this? Don't you know? I've been encouraging immigrants! ”

Xu Zhong's eyes rolled, and he hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "Then, what if it is more than five hundred acres?" ”

Five hundred acres!

It is the standard set by the imperial court for large households!

More than 500 acres, but it will be harvested.

Wang Yue's smile did not decrease, "The northern border is also the territory of the Ming Dynasty, not the land of the outside world. However, the northern territory is vast and sparsely populated, and it cannot be generalized with the Central Plains. In addition, if you establish a business tun, you can give up the original renting model and change to a farm...... The workers who work for you can leave at any time, and when you sell your grain, you will be subject to the commercial tax regulations of the northern border. Moreover, in the near future, the Metropolitan Protectorate will reduce the grain tax rate, as long as you do not sit back and enjoy the fruits of it, and avoid taxes and forced labor, the Metropolitan Protectorate will protect you! ”

Xu Zhong subconsciously swallowed and foamed, and nodded hurriedly, "My lord, you are really the master of the blue sky!" ”

Wang Yue laughed, "In the end, I also want to make the northern border better, so that we can all be better!" I collected your taxes, but I didn't use them for my own use. No, I have already planned a straight road from Chengde to Jingshi. When the road is repaired, the big guys will make more money, don't you think? ”

"I can assure you of one thing, the future of the North is definitely the best place to do business!"
