Chapter 1314: The Beginning of Blood and Fire

Shenjingdong City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Today's East Market, although it is as prosperous and lively as ever, but in the end, there is still a different atmosphere.

At the beginning of the afternoon, hundreds of people dressed in official uniforms rushed in, flowing into the shops, shops, and restaurants in the East Market.

These officials are different from those who came to collect business taxes yesterday.

It can be seen that this group of officials of the real commercial tax department is much weaker.

They took a tax form and receipt, and went door-to-door to conduct business tax statistics and collection.

As usual yesterday, progress is extremely fast.

But it's different from yesterday.

Yesterday, as soon as Zhao Jing and the others entered the door to explain their intentions, the shopkeeper would send a guy to give a hundred taels of silver and leave.

Today, the shopkeeper will take out the account books in his own right, report the accounts at 1510, and then pay taxes.

All this was done in an atmosphere of silence.

The tax collectors don't have any smiling faces, and the tax collectors don't have any enthusiasm.

At the end of the Shen period, the commercial taxes of hundreds of businesses and shops in the East Market were all collected.

Hundreds of officials left the East Market and returned to the Yamen of the Commercial and Taxation Department.

Then, after a day of tense face, there was finally an incomparably brilliant expression.

"Oh my God!!"

Looking at the tax money collected by only one East Market, the officials of the Commercial Tax Department looked at the stars one by one.

Two hundred and eighty thousand taels!

This...... It's just an East Market, a month's business tax!!

Once upon a time, there was no more than one million taels of silver left in the treasury of Great Qin for a year.

Sometimes, not even 200,000 taels.

What is this concept?!

There are also calm, saying that the two cities of Shenjing and West are the largest markets in the world.

Except in the capital, there is no such exaggeration in other places.

However, this still could not stop the enthusiasm of the crowd.

Although the Fang City in the south of the Yangtze River is not as big as the two cities in the east and west of Shenjing, they are rich!

The business is like a cloud, and the door shop is like rain!

This has to be collected, and a month's commercial tax is an astronomical amount!

It's strange that the court made such a tragic fuss about this matter......

There are also elderly people, recalling that at the end of the former Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen also opened business taxes, how much did he collect?

Is it thirty taels, or fifty taels?

Don't talk about him, just say that the Wanli Emperor, who loves silver and wealth to the bone, in order to collect business taxes, sent the inner prison of the middle palace to search everywhere, causing a lot of chaos, and in the end he only recovered more than 100,000 taels......

At that time, the merchants were no poorer than they are now!

Hey!

The former Ming Dynasty died at the hands of these people!

Thinking of this, and looking at today's achievements, the people of the Commercial Taxation Department suddenly rose with a sense of pride in respecting and loyalizing the country.

The official in charge wrote this number on the fold and sent it to the palace......

……

Shenjing West City, Wubenfang.

Yang's study, mountain grass zhai.

Compared with the jubilant Commercial Tax Division, the atmosphere in the Yang family's study was extremely depressed and heavy.

Yang Shun, the former deputy assistant of the cabinet, Song Xinghe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Qin Jichu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zhou Ziheng, the left attendant of the Li Fan Yuan, and the four purple giants sat in the hall.

The face sank like water.

Mo said that Song Xinghe, Qin Jichu, Zhou Ziheng and others, even Yang Shun, never thought that Emperor Longzheng would spit out a "quasi" word.

has been an official for decades, and most of them have been suffering.

The emperor who will run in the future and has to meet the practical emperor should have made a lot of achievements and lived up to his life's ambitions.

But I didn't want to, but this luck came to an abrupt end.

A mere word "quasi" will bury all the momentum and strength of their party.

If you don't regret it, it's impossible.

In the court, some people shed tears on the spot.

If it weren't for the fact that he still needed some face, I was afraid that someone would regret it on the spot.

Even so, the officials who followed them out with a hot brain today had very few people hand over the "plea" fold to the palace.

I hope to make meritorious contributions.

After ten years of hard study, in the end, isn't he just an official?

They can't ruin their future just for a single brain fever.

However, those middle-level and low-level officials can do this, but the four of them can't do it.

Otherwise, the reputation of Shilin will stink completely.

Song Xingheqiang, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, laughed and said, "Cangyan Gong, it's okay.

At least, from this day forward, the world's scholars will sing our name.

Since then, Cangyan Gong has been the leader of the Great Qin Shilin, and his name has moved the world. ”

Yang Shun was silent.

Qin Jichu, the former secretary of the Ministry of Works, said hatefully: "Boqin Gong, don't deceive yourself anymore.

In the past few years, the old man has been trembling and diligent in official duties, how can he ever neglect a little bit and have a slight fork?

The major streets in Shenjing City, the eight rivers outside the city, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, which old man has not measured step by step?

I am not greedy or corrupt, and I have passed the door several times without entering, what have I done?

Could it be that it's for today's quasi-word?! ”

Zhou Ziheng, the left attendant of the former Domain, also shook his head and said: "In order to allow Zhungar Mongolia and Saiwai Mongolia to change locations, in the past three years, I have run back to the Western Regions Grassland three times, and each time, I have to travel for more than half a year.

Now that it is about to be done, the two Mongolians will be replaced in the spring of the next year.

Who would have thought ...... Alas! ”

Hearing the two of them say this, a touch of shame appeared on Yang Shun's old farmer-like face, and he arched his hand and said: "It's the old man who has involved the two." ”

Qin Jichu and Zhou Ziheng hurriedly got up and said, "Cangyan Gong, what are these words? Isn't it all for the sake of the Holy Way? ”

Qin Jichu sneered: "That mean and unkind heart, we have heard of it a long time ago.

I thought that we were his descendants, so it would be different.

But I didn't expect that it was us who were self-inflicted! ”

Zhou Ziheng didn't focus on this, but gritted his teeth and said: "Today is not impossible, if the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are like this, even if he is unwilling, he has to postpone it."

However, he didn't expect that after Cangyan Gong came out, the prime minister learned to protect himself and watch the fire from the other side!

After He Xiangye was bad, he clearly respected Cangyan Gong as his second assistant, but in fact, he didn't want to sit in this position as well......"

"Alright."

Yang Shun opened his mouth to stop Zhou Ziheng's resentment, smiled faintly, and said, "It's okay for Su Qing to stay, otherwise, it will really let that group of martial artists dominate."

This matter, let the old man think about it, there will always be an explanation.

Let's all go back first......"

"Cangyan Gong ......"

Song Xinghe and Qin Jichu hurriedly got up and called.

Yang Shun did not waver at all, slowly raised the tea cup and sent off the guests.

Seeing this, Song Xinghe and the others sighed and left.

After the three of them left, Yang Shun sat alone in the study for a long time.

Until nightfall, when the study was so dark that no one could see anyone, there was still no one to light the lamp.

This is his rule, this study, without his permission, no one in the family is allowed to enter.

However, just when the entire study room was completely plunged into darkness, a figure slowly appeared in the study out of thin air......

……

Outside Shenjing West City, Weishui Wharf.

Lights on!

The bustling wharf, which was originally lined with thousands of sails, was cleared again tonight, or because of Jia Huan, who killed a thousand knives, was tyrannical......

There is a huge wharf, and there is only a tall building ship, docked.

In fact, they really wronged Jia Huan, it's really not his pot.

Because he didn't even make a sound, he was a member of the Yamen, the commander of the Nine Gates, and in order to prevent another assassination from happening, he received the order from the palace and was ordered to clear the scene.

As soon as night fell, I saw countless war horses, from the various markets in the west city of Shenjing, the sea rushing towards the west gate, and then gathered on the dock.

Each martial artist has a few dozens, and a few dozen or dozens of pro-soldiers.

When they arrived at the docks, the soldiers would stay on the docks, and their own cooks and servants would set up a banquet to entertain them.

Only the head of the family can bring a son and bring an invitation card on board.

At the beginning of the day, when it was completely dark, Jiajialou's boat slowly sailed away from Weishui Wharf and came to the center of the river.

In the past three years, the legend about the Jia family's building ship in Shenjing City has endured for a long time.

The nobles who first saw the Jia family's boat were actually the Qin family.

When Qin Feng was going to the Western Regions, he happened to pass by the wharf, and after learning that it was a luxury building ship specially built by Jia Huan, he had to come up to take a look.

With the nobility of the Marquis of Wuwei, when they saw the furnishings on the ship, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Not to mention the others?

Even in the past two or three years, the blessing of the shares of the Duxun Guituo Bank has been much more relaxed.

But no matter how loose they were, they had never seen such an extravagant boat.

After getting on the boat, they all became the first time that the countrymen entered the city, and they didn't dare to move around at will.

Today, they can't go up to the second floor, they can only see and learn on the first deck.

Even so, it was an eye-opener for them......

When the heads of each family were on the first deck, they were somewhat better, after all, they had experienced a lot.

But when they went up to the second floor and saw that the second deck was decked by Jin Sinan, with the night pearl as the lamp, and all kinds of treasures were innumerable, they were also stunned.

Even Niu Jizong was shocked by this scene, and asked Jia Huan on the spot: "Brother Huan, is it too extravagant?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the boat blowing by the river breeze suddenly fell silent.

Although they are both nobles, their ears are calloused to Jia Huan's daimyo.

But in fact, most of the martial arts have never had the opportunity to get along with Jia Huan at close range.

The hierarchy of the inner circle of the Ya is stricter than that of officialdom.

It's not a level, and there can't be much intersection at all.

Today, most of the people in the boat want to hear how Jia Huan, who is approved by his own Lao Tzu as a god, communicates with a big man.

So, they all held their breath and listened quietly.

Seeing Jia Huan standing on the deck on the second floor, without the slightest fear of their elders, he smiled and said, "Uncle Niu, we are nobles and nobles!"

Let's put on our livers and galls, fight on the battlefield, and live and die several times.

What is it that you do?

Isn't it a wife and a son, and a fight for wealth in life?

As long as we don't forget our original intention, we don't forget our martial arts, and don't indulge in red dust.

A little extravagance, but what's it?

Besides, if this is not the case, why should we be so noble?

Brothers, are you right? ”

As he spoke, Jia Huan suddenly turned his head sideways and asked loudly to the many officials on the deck on the first floor.

"Coax!"

The people didn't expect them to show their faces, they are all lawless, how can they not participate in such an exciting thing?

Even if there are Lao Tzu of various families, they still clamore: "Yes! Ning Hou's words are extremely true! ”

Jia Huan laughed and said: "I, Jia Huan, am just an early starter, a little family business, it's really not worth it."

As long as we always maintain an enterprising spirit, conquer overseas, and open up territory.

There is a myriad of land and wealth waiting for us to occupy, to own, to pass on from generation to generation.

I guarantee that each of you can have a big boat that is even better than this, sheltering our families, using the inland sea of Daqin as a lake, swimming freely.

Dare to be a big husband, when you lift the three-foot Qingfeng, take the boat as a horse, and crisscross the seas!

Build a world of merit, establish a world of business!

Fang lives up to the name of martial arts!

I am Great Qin Wuxun, Wan Sheng!! ”

Jia Huan drew the sword at his waist, stabbed the sky obliquely, and roared angrily.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!!"

"Wansheng !!"

More than 100 generals raised their swords and shouted as if worshipping gods.

When Niu Jizong and the others saw this scene, they all nodded and laughed.

After that, no one could stop the pace of Great Qin Wuxun's overseas expedition......

……

Just when Jia Huan gathered the Great Qin Wuxun generals and made a declaration of conquest overseas, the northern powers, thousands of miles away, staged a war of blood and fire, revenge and rebellion in the ancient palace of Eros.

Empress Catherine, who has been on the throne for three years, sits in the golden and white hall of the Grand Kremlin, surrounded by raging battles, blood and killing.

Her beautiful eyes stared at the girl in the main hall of His Highness, surrounded by countless armored soldiers and horses, her eyes were full of anger and despair.

The plump and moist red lips opened and closed with difficulty, and spit out a sentence: "Sophia, you are back......"

The girl's face was awe-inspiring, her chin was slightly raised, her eyes looked at Empress Catherine coldly, and she said coldly: "The daughter of a farmer who stole the Romanov dynasty will eventually be judged by the emperor."

All betrayals and conspiracies against the great Eros will be sent to hell. ”

"Long live the great Empress Sophia!"

Countless armor-clad royal guards of Eros raised their spears in their hands and roared in unison.

Sophia didn't look at Catherine again, but turned her head to look south......
