Chapter 350: Winning or losing is undecided in the county

Seeing that the three of them came back, each of whom brought a lot of contracts, President Tian showed a reassuring smile on his face, and said to Li Yu, who was still looking at the terrain over there:

"Master Li, in fact, it's okay to cultivate a little more, after all, people who do business also have a conscience."

"Really?" Li Yu didn't expect President Tian to be so easy to talk to, he wondered if he could add some more money to come in, a person like himself, no matter how much money he has, it is better to have a good reputation, he has no money to care about others, he really can't have a brother who is passed on to others, just let him stretch out his hand.

Seeing that President Tian smiled and nodded, Li Yu said happily: "Okay, I like businessmen with a conscience, making money is making money, but you can't just think about money in order to make money, how can you have a little people in your heart, just like Xiaobao and Juan Juan, oh, don't talk about them, they are officials, just like Shui Yunjian, they are doing very well." ”

President Tian can make more money again, so naturally he will not refute Li Yu's words, isn't Shui Yunjian still the two families of Zhang Wang, what's the difference, when he followed Li Yu forward, he glanced at the people next to him, which meant that he let them go out and have a look again, and whispered to the person closest to him.

"There are no businessmen in this county, you can go to other counties to see, attract them, and collect a part of the tax, such as 30%, even 20%, the more prosperous the local area, the more they earn, the richer we are."

"President, I'll arrange it." The person who got the order agreed, and then casually found an excuse to leave, and hired a car to rush to other counties as fast as possible.

Li Yu didn't notice their small movements, and the little insect next to him also turned a blind eye, and now he admires Zhang Xiaobao even more, this point has already been mentioned in the plan, which can be said to be the first to anticipate the enemy.

Just when they were looking at the terrain here, the yamen of Changning County posted a notice, whether they knew how to read or not, they came to see closely, and those who knew how to read needed to tell others.

There was a large crowd of people in a place dedicated to posting notices near the entrance of the yamen, and at the front stood a man dressed as a scholar, and the people around him gave up their positions in order to show respect, and no one squeezed him, waiting for him to read the words on the notice.

"The county's new regulations stipulate that anyone or merchant who needs to pay taxes late and refuses to pay under any excuse will be sent to the government to forcibly collect it, and depending on his attitude, he will be punished by three to five times.

The person dressed as a scholar read aloud with his hands behind his back, and it is also an honor to be respected by so many people who don't know words, of course, the score place, if it is changed to Sanshui County, no one needs him to read, and there are children who have studied in the school for two years at home.

The people still thought that it was a big deal, and when they saw that they were asking the people who did business to take the initiative and pay taxes in time, they felt very disappointed, and they sighed and dispersed one after another.

"President Tian, how about the river you want to lead from here? There are several small rivers in front of here, which can be connected, and it is convenient to use water when the time comes, even if the small rivers are repaired well and widened, there is no need to bother. ”

Li Yu led everyone to another place, looked left and right, took out the map in his hand, and after carefully comparing it, he said to President Tian of the Thousand World Chamber of Commerce.

Chairman Tian still had that reserved smile, "Lord Li said okay, the map in Lord Li's hand seems to be more detailed than the one used for the game, I wonder if you can let me take a look?" ”

When President Tian agreed, he glanced at the map in Li Yu's hand, found the problem in it, and wanted a copy of it.

Li Yu hurriedly put the map together and refused very simply: "No, even if the official shows it to you, do you really dare to look at it?" This is a military map, of course, detailed, no matter what the official said, he also served as a state recorder to join the army, so there is a map. ”

Li Yu made an excuse for himself, in fact, he often said that he didn't have it, there are only two places where the whole Tang Dynasty can have a military map with contours, one is the palace in the capital, and the other is the two families of Zhang Wang, Zhang Xiaobao can give him a copy of Changning.

Even so, there is a lack of annotations on the map, such as whether it is difficult for a horse's hooves to walk in a certain place, or what kind of things can be used when climbing a mountain.

As soon as Chairman Tian heard that it was a military map, he really wanted a copy, but he didn't dare, what does the idea of a businessman mean to play a military map?

Nodding regretfully, President Tian stopped mentioning the map and continued to follow Li Yu.

Two days later, where to build the road and where to open the river were all discussed, and the people of the Thousand World Chamber of Commerce immediately transferred money and hired the local people to start busy.

The people also know that there is also a chamber of commerce called Qianshi this time, and they will do good things for the county together with the county order, the chamber of commerce is good, but what is better is the county order, and there will be no Qianshi Chamber of Commerce without the county order.

In order to make the people more active, a notice was posted at the entrance of the yamen, which explained that the idea of jointly building the road with the Chamber of Commerce was made by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan of the Zhang family in Sanshui County, so that everyone did not have to worry.

Many people really don't know what the Zhang family in Sanshui County is, but there are businessmen who have traveled from south to north to know that they bragged with others during dinner, and this time the people know that a very powerful family, the baby born is also powerful, and everywhere he goes, he has never done anything wrong.

Good to the people, but also very good at making money, and honest officials, rich at home, yes, rich honest officials, very amazing vocabulary together.

Knowing this situation, the enthusiasm of the people came up and they signed up to build the road.

Li Yu also followed the practice of Zhang Wang's family and his elder brother, and used the money that the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce cooperated with him to pay the people, and was also responsible for several meals a day, and also worked in shifts during the day and night.

Just when this was booming, rumors appeared in the county.

Whether it is a tea shop or a tavern, many people are saying that Zhang Xiaobao, who is very powerful in the Zhang family, has suffered a loss this time, and the plan made for Li Yu went wrong, so that the people of the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce can take advantage of it, cooperate with local businessmen, and avoid the taxes to be paid.

Such rumors made the people lose confidence in Zhang Xiaobao, and at the same time, they also made the people disgusted with the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce, because Li Yu learned the example of Praise County two days ago, and began to introduce in detail to the people in the county every day how much money was in the yamen, how it came about, and what kind of place it was spent.

It emphasizes the help of taxation to the yamen, and also to the people of the county.

After the transparent and open financial report was made known to the people, the people hoped that the yamen could have more money, because there was a subsidy for poor households in one piece of expenditure, and all the houses in the entire county would be renovated within five years.

Everyone is waiting for the Yamen to take out the money to help them repair the house, take it from the people and the people, now there is a lot of money, but part of it is not directly controlled by the county, it needs to be handed over, this is not Li Yu's fief, he has not yet fiefdom.

All part of the money can be kept in the county, and more will be sent to the capital, as well as rent.

Even if the people are stupid, they can't stand the smart people to explain, saying that if the people of the Thousand World Chamber of Commerce do this, they will be able to make money, and the tax revenue of the yamen will be over, and the more businessmen they contact, the poorer the county will become.

The Qianshi Chamber of Commerce, which had just spent money on road and river repairs, had become profiteers in the hearts of the people, which was not a good thing.

At the same time, I was also very disappointed in Zhang Xiaobao, why did such a powerful person lose to others.

President Tian didn't expect things to be like this, Li Yu didn't make the county's finances public at all, where did the people know how much money was in the yamen, and what they were going to spend, if they didn't make it public, then no matter how much the chamber of commerce did, the people didn't know.

Well, now, all the good reputation that I paid a lot of money is gone.

In desperation, Chairman Tian found Li Yu and said to him: "Lord Li, see if you can stop the daily announcement, it's not good for the people to know too much, the people can make it, but they can't make it known." ”

"Stop? Why stop, it's not a secret thing in private, the official thinks that he is honest enough to be an official, and the things in the yamen are everything that cannot be said to people, and also, what you said is wrong, it is called the people, so that it can be done, and it is not allowed to be known, and if the people do not understand what the officials want to do, how can the people support it wholeheartedly? ”

Li Yu did not have any room for negotiation on this matter, and introduced the situation in Baoxin County to Chairman Tian, what the officials there want to do, as long as the people understand, there is no need to worry about lack of manpower, the people of the county will follow suit, and it is exciting to think about what kind of scene.

Chairman Tian felt that Li Yu was deliberate, he thought that Li Yu had already known about the cooperation between his Qianshi Chamber of Commerce and other businessmen, but found that the content written in the contract could not be changed, so he could only endure it silently, but he was unwilling, so he came up with such a way to make the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce lose its good reputation and retaliate.

Thinking of this, President Tian said: "Lord Li, if the reputation of the Thousand Generations Chamber of Commerce is bad and we want to recruit workers, the people will not be willing to come, so how can we continue to do business?" ”

"Don't worry, as soon as the workshop is built, the official will come right away, heck, it's been eight days since we signed the contract, right?"

Li Yu reassured, and suddenly said something that made President Tian inexplicable.

"Yes, it's been eight days, and in a few days, the workshop will be built, Lord Li, does it have anything to do with the workshop?" President Tian replied and asked suspiciously.

"It has nothing to do with this, but it has something to do with taxes, the county's regulations, at most businessmen can be in arrears for ten days, if they don't pay after ten days, then the punishment will be heavy, there have been no businessmen to pay taxes in the past few days, and the official is anxious for them."

Li Yu looked at Chairman Tian with meaningful eyes and explained.

Chairman Tian suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong, and Li Yu was too indifferent.
