After Yang Qi knew the cause and effect, he nodded and said, "This thing is easy to do." ”

After receiving Yang Qi's task, Wei Dayong summoned the people in charge of each military household to the newly built military camp outside the city, first, to visit the recruits, and second, to explain to these military households the detailed rules for attracting investment in the shopping market.

The new barracks can accommodate 5,000 soldiers, the barracks are still under construction, toilets, bathhouses, and canteens are all built, and in the barracks, there is also a small farm, in which chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, and even a few goats, although these numbers are not much, and they are still in the exploration stage, but it is conceivable in the future, the scale will definitely get bigger and bigger, and the breeders here are all experienced practitioners selected from the military households. They saw that their men were washed clean one by one, and their military uniforms had not yet been issued, and they were all wearing their own clothes, so they were a little nondescript, but they were all energetic and standing straight, and they felt different from the army of the Ming Dynasty, but it was not clear what was different.

Recently, the news of the establishment of this shopping market has been full of turmoil in the city, especially all the merchants and stall owners who signed up were smashed by Ge Feng and others, and they were also threatened by their respective chiefs.

"There are too many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the city, and in the future, only the rental fee of the stall and the commercial tax of Daming will be levied, but the tax rate will be one of ten taxes!" Yang Qi stood on the stage and personally solved the doubts of these military families.

"Huh? Isn't that much higher than the tax rate of Daming? "There are military households who understand the tax rate of the Ming Dynasty shouted below.

"Not bad!" Yang Qi nodded and said, "The simple tax rate is much higher, but have you calculated it?" The commercial tax of our dynasty is very low, but miscellaneous expenses, apportionment, liao salary, side salary, training salary and so on are countless, these expenses, our grange is exempt! And under my grange, I was exempted from all forced labor, and instead was hired for paid labor, and was in charge of food and lodging! Are these anywhere else? ”

After Yang Qi finished speaking, the military households below began to discuss, how can it be seen that the tax rate is indeed higher, but if you calculate carefully, there are a lot of "protection fees" and poll taxes in ordinary times, plus these other miscellaneous things, the tax rate is as high as five or six tenths, so it seems that this is still good news.

"My lord! But doing business requires capital turnover, and my family is poor, and I can't afford it? The military households below shouted one after another.

"We're a family after all!" Yang Qi opened his mouth and said: "We are all military households, I still have a few thousand taels of silver here, if you have an idea to do, you can come to me to borrow silver taels, do not calculate interest, do not calculate the interest rolling, as long as you make a profit, you can return the principal and half of the interest within a year, for example, if you borrow ten taels, you only need to plan ten taels and five cents!" ”

"So low?" He exclaimed.

"Great!" The enthusiasm of the military households was aroused at once.

"I want to sign up!" In an instant, the military households became agitated.

"Everyone, be quiet!" Yang Qi shouted again: "If you want to sign up and borrow, you have to go to the document to register and record, sign and draw, and if you don't want to do business, you can also expand production and become a supplier full-time, and it is also profitable to supply these people who change jobs and do business." ”

"It's great." The military households below said happily.

"I'm going to rent a stall, and when the time comes, I'll rent out my land, and I still have an income!" Some military households have already begun to carefully consider their future operations and production.

"My family has a lot of mouths, and I am worried that the land is not enough to cultivate, so you can rent your house to me." The military families discussed below.

Yang Qi took out 5,000 taels of silver as a loan fund, and instantly recruited more than 200 merchants, and there were still many people who did not get the loan, so they could only go back to expand production and operation, and become a supplier first.

"Humph!" Yang Qi was very disappointed in the merchants of the Grange, they actually rejected him for such a good thing, even if they were threatened, but no one came to him to complain and complain, as long as they were willing to come, they would inevitably use thunderous means to take them down in one fell swoop, there was no bitter master, they did not fight for themselves, Yang Qi was also powerless, since these merchants endured, then he just took the opportunity to raise the military households, in fact, he originally intended to support the military households, after all, their men are all working under their own accounts, giving their families some benefits, can only make these military households follow themselves even more with their hearts.

Some of these military households are good at handmade manufacturing, some are good at textile technology, some are good at wrought iron processing, some have learned carpentry from their masters, etc., and some think they are flexible, so they plan to put up stalls to sell a batch of goods, and soon Yang Qi's shopping market has the first batch of operators under each category, of course, the venue is very large, and there are many stalls that are empty, but Yang Qi believes that as long as the stalls are set up, people will come one after another.

The stall fee in the shopping market is not high, it is still according to the original formulation, one tael of silver a month, only 34 lines per day, compared with the outside stall fee of 100 lines a day and the poll tax ranging from 20 to 30 lines, the cost here is extremely low.

After three days of intense preparations, after the stall owners (military households) were ready, Yang Qi found a drum band, a lion dance team, stilts and a troupe, and carried out propaganda in front of the shopping market.

On the huge blackboard at the entrance of the shopping center, it is written that the opening reward, the price of goods, is more than two percent lower than the usual price of buying goods, some livelihood products, such as eggs, the original price to fluctuate around one hundred and twenty-five lines, and now the price is only ninety-five lines, which is for the confinement, the family has the need to tonic patients to find a good source, more good soybean oil original price of 500 lines a catty, now only 300 lines, cheap do not want, more good filthy paper, are sold below the market price, and so on.

"The shopping mall is just for business!" As soon as Yang Qi's opening words fell, the people who had been waiting outside the venue for a long time rushed in impatiently, searching and hoarding the goods in their minds.

The merchants of the shopping mall and the large and small suppliers who have just begun to get familiar with the operation have been busy until sunset, so that the out-of-stock goods will be replenished one after another, and the people who have bought the goods in large bags and small packages will return home to share today's news with their neighbors.
