Lin Shizhao hurriedly came to Zhao's house, but he didn't expect Zhao Rui to be drinking tea leisurely at home!

"Brother Zhao, why are you wasting your time like this! When will you get fame in the exam? ”

Lin Shizhao was concerned about it, and he directly taught Zhao Rui a lesson.

Zhao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then felt funny, Xiao Brother Lin, who was a truant student, actually taught himself a lesson.

"Come, Shizhao, sit, what's wrong?" Zhao Rui said with a smile.

"It's not your letter that made a fuss!"

Lin Shizhao sat on the chair and slapped the rice paper on the table.

"My mother wants to cancel the family affair, but my sister doesn't obey, and she keeps praising you for your hard work and helping you say good things, but what about you, what kind of fame do you have for such words?"

I see.

Zhao Rui pondered for a while and understood the reason for the matter.

"Alas, the so-called world is drunk and I wake up alone, you are my brother-in-law, I will tell you about the general trend today."

"At present, the court is mediocre, the traitors are in charge, the princes and nobles are busy with pleasure, and they don't care about the future of the country at all, do you know that the second city of Xiangfan has been besieged by the Tartars for four years, but the government still blocks the news?"

"That's true......"

Lin Shizhao's face was shocked.

You must know that the second city of Xiangfan is equivalent to the national gate of the Southern Song Dynasty, in case it is broken by the Tartars, then there will be nothing in the entire Jiangnan that can resist them.

When the time comes, they will burn, kill and loot all the way south, won't the entire Southern Song Dynasty be destroyed in one fell swoop?

"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I train so many house slaves?"

Lin Shizhao looked at the courtyard, and the Kunnu were conducting spear training in an orderly manner, and the fierce momentum made Lin Shizhao a little moved.

"So, fuck the bullshit fame, now the silver is the most important thing, I have reliable information, we still have nearly two years to go, when the time comes, there will be money and people, and the world will not be left by us at will?"

"It turns out that Brother Zhao is so thoughtful, and his younger brother is abrupt!"

Lin Shizhao knew that Zhao Rui was to blame, so he stood up and saluted directly.

"Hehe, my own family, it doesn't have to be like this!"

Lin Shizhao sat down for a moment, and then said worriedly: "Brother Zhao, I don't know what rare things you want to sell?" You must know that the sale of some goods from the ocean is occupied by Li and Zhou, how can we compete with them? ”

Zhao Rui just smiled indifferently.

"Shizhao, I'll take out the things to open your eyes, after half a pillar of incense, you will definitely be convinced of me."

Lin Shizhao looked at Zhao Rui in disbelief and walked to the backyard.

"Oh my God...... Oh, my God...... Oh, my God! I'm convinced, I'm really convinced! ”

In less than half a pillar of incense, Lin Shizhao was already dumbfounded.

The small wooden stick that caught fire with a stroke, as well as the colorful transparent bag, directly subverted Lin Shizhao's worldview.

"It's called a match, and it's a colorful cloud pocket!" Zhao Rui introduced with a smile.

"It's amazing!"

Lin Shizhao struck another match, and only when his fingers felt a burning sensation did he hurriedly shake it off.

I don't know how many times more convenient this is than the fire fold.

There is also this kind of colorful cloud pocket, which is thin and light but extremely tough, coupled with colorful colors, it will definitely become a sought-after item in the market!

"Let's make a lot of money with these! There are other more amazing goods to come! ”

Zhao Rui took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Now do you think I can be your brother-in-law?" ”

"Brother-in-law, there's nothing more to say, I, Lin Shizhao, have been with you for the rest of my life!"

Lin Shizhao's reversed attitude made Zhao Rui proud.

"By the way, your family is the one who opened the store, tell me, what do we need to pay attention to when opening a store?"

Lin Shizhao knew most about the things about the store since he was a child, so he told Zhao Rui in detail.

After listening to this, Zhao Rui also generally understood the current business rules.

The Southern Song Dynasty was heavy on commerce, and the country's commercial tax revenue had already greatly exceeded the agricultural tax, so for commercial operations, there was still a relatively free degree, and only needed to go to the tax field to register and officially open for business.

The commercial tax is divided into two categories, one is the 2% tax and the other is the 3% residential tax.

In layman's terms, the trade tax is the circulation tax, and the merchant has to pay 2% of the total value of the goods when he passes through a town.

The residential tax is the business tax on the land, and it charges 3% of the total value of the goods for merchants who open shops.

It seems that the housing tax is higher than the travel tax, but often the tax is the bulk of the tax, and the merchant has to pay a tax every town with goods along the way, and these taxes may have reached 10-20%.

Zhao Rui's goods can be regarded as being sent by others, so they only need to pay local taxes and living taxes, so that the total is only 5%.

Although the tax burden of the Southern Song Dynasty was heavier, it was also focused on taxes, and it had nothing to do with Zhao Rui, so the taxes were only few, but they were just scratching the surface.

In the end, Lin Shizhao was still a little hesitant.

Zhao Rui was a little impatient.

"Say something directly! How can a dignified man be so unhappy! ”

"Brother Zhao, have you really forgotten about Uncle Zhao......

Lin Shizhao looked at Zhao Rui carefully, for fear of causing him grief.

Zhao Rui was directly stunned, yes, I don't know what grievances the Song Dynasty father suffered!

So Zhao Rui scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and said, "I really can't remember clearly, you can help me sort it out." ”

Lin Shizhao rolled his eyes, feeling that Zhao Rui was really heartless, so he told Old Man Zhao about his past in detail.

Zhao Rui listened carefully, it was inconvenient to ask the old housekeeper, Lin Shizhao was the only information channel here.

It turned out that the Zhao family operated a spice business, which itself was duplicated with the Zhou family's goods, but the old man Zhao was experienced, and the spices he bought were fresh and delicious, so he robbed the Zhou family of a lot of business, and the Zhou family has always held a grudge.

Seeing that no one cared about their own spices, and there was a tendency to become more and more old, the Zhou family simply sued the Zhao family directly, falsely accusing the old man Zhao of colluding with the bandits, and often bought all kinds of goods and sent them to the mountains to sell to the bandits, so as to save taxes and fees.

The Zhou family made a full set of plays, and really bribed a thief with silver and asked him to identify Old Man Zhao.

So Old Man Zhao was imprisoned, and he couldn't wash it away if he really jumped into the Yellow River.

"The Zhou family is so vicious?"

Zhao Rui clenched his fists angrily when he heard this.

"The shopping mall is like a battlefield, Brother Zhao should not be underestimated, I am just afraid that his Zhou family will repeat his old tricks, and you will not be able to escape their framing at that time!"

Zhao Rui was silent, what Lin Shizhao said was not unreasonable, since he had learned from the past, he must take strict precautions.

However, if it is really false, Zhao Rui is not afraid.

Not to mention so many house slaves, they still have an automatic pistol.

It is completely possible to crush the armed forces of this county, even if you add bandits, Zhao Rui is completely unafraid.

"Shizhao, don't worry, the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it, I want to see who dares to beat me Zhao Rui's idea!"

The domineering spirit revealed by Zhao Rui directly made Lin Shizhao stunned, and he felt that Zhao Rui seemed to be a completely changed person, and he no longer gave people the honest feeling he used to have.

Now Zhao Rui is sharp!

"Maybe I'm just worrying too much!"

Lin Shizhao said everything he should say, and he himself knew that if he wanted to settle down in troubled times, he couldn't be afraid of things.

"Okay, you go back first, wait until tomorrow morning, we will officially open!"

Zhao Rui gave the address in detail, and Lin Shizhao also praised it as a good place, and then Lin Shizhao went back by himself.

Zhao Rui stood in the living room and groaned for a while, thinking that the Zhou family, the bandits, and the government were all connected, just like a meticulous net, which had been spread out in front of his eyes.

Maybe there's going to be a tough battle in the future!

Zhao Rui looked at Kunnu who was training in the yard, and touched the hardness of his waist, but he didn't have the slightest fear.

Early the next morning, the sound of firecrackers exploded outside the store.

The people who were in the morning gathered towards the sound.

Zhao Gong led people to carefully hang up the ready-made plaque.

The name of the store is very literary, "the stone of the mountain", Zhao Rui stood up and looked at it with a smile.

At this time, there was already a crowd in front of the store, and they were already attracted by the goods and Lin Shizhao's shouts.

"Folks! Come and have a look! Overseas rare goods, all in the 'Stone of the Mountain'! ”

Lin Shizhao said while tying colorful plastic bags on the long bamboo poles, and then erected the bamboo poles, and the various plastic bags were displayed in the wind, which was very beautiful!

"This is called Caiyundou, and the legend is that it is the immortal master of the Hu people, made of colorful sunsets! The material is tough, it can be filled with water without leaking, but the quality is only one thousandth of the pig bubble! ”

Mr. Lin was not in a hurry to open the store in the morning, and stood in the crowd early, watching his son talk on the steps at the door of the store, his eyes revealing relief.

Worthy of my son! Born to be the material to do business!

"And this match, it's even more magical!"

In order for everyone to be able to see it, Lin Shizhao raised his arm high, and struck the match with a "swish", and the match head burst into flames all of a sudden, startling the audience in front of him, and couldn't help but retreat, but the crowd was already three layers inside and outside, and they couldn't retreat a bit.

"Again...... I'll have another one! ”

Lin Shizhao was full of smiles, and the matches in his hand were also struck one after another, and there were bursts of surprise from the crowd of onlookers.

"Oh my God, that's amazing! It's a lot more convenient than a fire fold! ”

"Yes, it's a small box, it's definitely convenient to carry around, but I don't know how much it will sell."

"Look, those clouds are still a little transparent, maybe they are really made of clouds!"

"Mother! I want Caiyundou, you buy it for me, buy it for me......"

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and some people couldn't wait at the moment, and asked loudly: "What about the price?" Why don't you talk about the price? ”

Lin Shizhao smiled slightly, and said what Zhao Rui taught him in advance.

"Our store opened on the golden day, in order to give the parents and villagers discounts, specially launched a one-dollar store model, the goods in the store are all unified yuan, you can't buy a loss, you can't buy fooled ......"

The unit of one yuan makes everyone feel fresh and incomprehensible.

At this time, a female voice in the crowd asked weakly, "Excuse me, is one yuan a copper coin?" ”

But in an instant, her words were drowned out by the sound of gossip and ridicule!
