[PS: It's the beginning of the month, what reason is there not to update? ] The monthly pass is every time I catch up with the big guy in front later, and this time I ask for a monthly pass at the beginning of the month......]

"Miscalculated?"

The official was stunned when he heard this, looked at him, shook his head, and said with a smile: "There is no mistake, Lord Assassin Shi has an order, and from now on, the merchants of Qi and Jingguo will be treated equally, and your tax amount will be recalculated according to the new system, no more, no less." ”

The rich man froze in place when he heard this.

Qi merchants and Jingguo merchants are treated equally?

Fool whom?

Even if you want to deceive yourself, you don't need to use this kind of clumsy excuse, this is Jingguo, how can the people of Qi and Jingguo be the same, I am afraid that if he just paid his taxes, the other party will arrest him for tax evasion......

It's just that I haven't been here for half a year, and the hearts of the officials in Shuzhou are getting darker and darker!

He looked at the official, his legs were weak, he knelt on the ground with a puff, a handful of snot and tears, and cried: "My lord, I beg you to let go of the villain, there is an eighty-year-old mother on the villain, and an eight-year-old child below, if something goes wrong with this batch of goods, this winter, the villain's family will drink the northwest wind......"

The official looked at him crying bitterly, and his eyes were a little moist.

He also has an old mother to support, a child waiting to be fed, and a loser in the middle spends money like running water, for the old mother's rice cook, children's snacks, and mother-in-law's perfume......

For this month's performance, for the generous bonus, and for a fat year, even if he wears out his mouth, he has to grit his teeth and persevere!

The same people who have fallen to the end of the world, why bother with each other?

He helped the merchant of Qi up and said seriously: "If you don't believe it, come, come, I'll take you to see the notice, the notice is written clearly, if you still don't believe it, I'll take you to see the county commander, and let the county commander tell you in person......"

"Chen Tingshi, what a bastard!"

When he led the merchants of the Qi Kingdom to see the notice, the official of this house cursed in his heart.

If it weren't for the death order of this Lord Assassin, he should have sat in front of his house and basked in the sun now, instead of grinding with the merchants of the Qi Kingdom here......

Assassin's House.

Chen Chong, who was flipping through the file, sneezed, and Miss Chen San, who had just walked out of the door, walked in again and told him: "The weather is slowly getting colder, second brother wear more clothes." Don't suffer the cold......"

Chen Chong put down the dossier and nodded with a smile, "Got it......"

At the same time, the little official of the house walked out of the county office with the merchants of Qi State.

The little official looked at the merchants of Qi and said: "This is Shuzhou, thanks to the kindness of His Royal Highness King Jing, knowing that it is not easy for you to go south and north, so I gave you so much preferential treatment, and you can't meet such a good policy when you go to other places." ”

"Brother Guancha, I'm really sorry, it's me who spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain......" The merchant of Qi looked at the official and said with an apologetic face.

At this moment, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, and even felt a little fluttering under his feet.

The chaotic land is not so chaotic, there are no bandits in Shuzhou, and even the government of Jingguo treats their businessmen as human beings and gives them so much convenience, so this business will not be able to do more and more smoothly in the future?

"Little things, little things...... the little official in the household looked at him and asked, "Where are you going this time?" ”

The rich man smiled and said, "Go to Qing'an Mansion first, and then turn the water to Kyoto, sell these goods, and then buy some Jingguo things to bring back, and earn a hard-earned money in the middle......"

Many merchants in Qi Country are similar to their way of making money, they are two reselling to earn a difference, don't underestimate the price difference, if you are lucky, the income from this trip is enough to be worth them in Qi for two whole years.

They are doing a cloth business in Qi State, relying on several family dyeing secret recipes, they have accumulated some family wealth, and the original business in Qi Country is also okay, but since Jingguo's high-grade fabrics flowed into Qi Country and began to lead the trend, their business has been greatly affected.

In desperation, they could only start a business, from Qi to Jingguo, through the state and through the state, fortunately, their cloth is unique, even if they get Jingguo, it is also extremely popular, they also have fixed partners in Jingguo.

"It's not easy for you to go north and south......" The little official looked at him and said, "Anyway, you still have to leave in two days, and it is fate to meet, why don't I invite you to a light meal?" ”

The merchant of the Qi Kingdom looked at this little official, and suddenly felt that his eyes were a little moist.

They were doing business in Qi State, and those officials were eager to take out all the oil on his body and pay taxes, but when they arrived in other countries, the government not only took the initiative to help them reduce the tax amount, but the official actually invited him to dinner......

Compared with the two, in Shuzhou, he actually has a feeling of home......

He sniffed, looked at the little official, and said solemnly: "Don't, thanks to the adult's care, I will invite you to this meal, dare to ask which is the best restaurant here?" ”

"What's so embarrassing about this......" The little official shook his head and stretched out his hand to point diagonally across the yamen, "That's ......"

The rich man looked up and saw that on the diagonal opposite side of the yamen, on the plaque, the words "Home Restaurant" were clearly visible.

In the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, after three rounds of drinking, the two chatted for a long time, and the words gradually opened.

The little official looked at the rich man and asked, "I heard Brother Hu just now say that you are here this time to buy the fabrics and ready-to-wear of our Jingguo, dare to ask these things, are they only available in Qing'an Mansion and Kyoto?" ”

"It's not ......" The merchant of Qi Kingdom shook his head and said, "Brother Nie, you don't know, although other state capitals also sell it, we want a lot, and we can only buy it in the big workshops in Kyoto and Qing'an Mansion......"

The little official shook his head and said, "What I don't know is Brother Hu, you might as well tell you this, what you can buy in Qing'an Mansion and Kyoto, in our Shuzhou, you can buy the same, and what you can't buy in Qing'an Mansion and Kyoto, in our Shuzhou, you can still buy it!" ”

The merchants of Qi were stunned and asked, "Why is this?" ”

"Of course, it's because His Royal Highness King Jing is here!" The little official waved his hand and said, "Let's eat first, and I'll take you down to see if you're done......"

"Okay, Brother Nie, I'll toast you first!"

"Take a ......"

……

After a while, the merchants of the Qi Kingdom stood at the gate of the West City, looking at the crowd of people who were working in full swing, and said in surprise: "Brother Nie, what are you doing, building the city wall?" ”

"It's not about building walls." The little official shook his head and said: "You see, this circle has not been built yet, it is all shops and workshops, and it will be built in two months, and it can be said that here will be a shopping mall in the future, selling cloth, selling clothes, restaurants and cloth villages, and Goolan inns, there are ...... here."

He looked at the merchants of the Qi country and said: "Even you can rent a shop here, there are merchants from all over the world, if you want to buy anything, you don't have to go all the way from Shuzhou to Kyoto, there are ...... in Kyoto."

"Really?" When the merchants of the Qi Kingdom heard this, their eyes lit up.

For these businessmen, if they don't have to go to Kyoto, they will save not only time, but also travel expenses, and greatly reduce the risk, if you calculate carefully, you can save more than half of the cost.

What's more, time is money, saving time is making money, and having time to go to Kyoto is enough for them to travel back and forth between Shuzhou and Qi several times.

The difference in profit between the two is several times!

Not only that, the Jingguo government also allowed them Qi people to open shops here, judging from the news he got from this big brother Nie just now, Shuzhou is obviously encouraging and supporting business, which is rare in other places, and it is also a great attraction for businessmen from all over the world.

If this "shopping mall" is built, with Shuzhou as the center, it will be a place where businessmen from Qi, Jing and Wu will fight, and if there is a shop here------- it will be like sitting on the ground to make money!
