An hour later, on the official road outside Jinling City.

The Qin Dynasty began to learn to ride a horse under the tutelage of Lemon's newly hired middle-aged male groom.

During the period of learning to ride a horse, there is no need to give the groom any more silver taels, just need to take care of the groom's food and drink.

Regarding the lemon report, Qin Chao threw it out of his mind after hearing it.

At this time, he was accompanied by the groom, and began to try to control the brown and red horse he was riding.

The Qin Dynasty had the experience of riding horses, and he was not afraid of horses, so the Qin Dynasty tried his best to implement what the groom taught.

Under the guidance of the groom, the level of horseback riding in the Qin Dynasty was also slowly improving.

Of course, there is still a big gap between him and he galloping on the official road on horseback alone.

The Qin Dynasty was very happy about this, and did not feel uncomfortable during the period of learning to ride horses. Lemon, who accompanied the Qin Dynasty, was also very happy when he watched the Qin Dynasty learn equestrianism.

……

In the next few days, Jinling City became even more lively. Many of the farmers who had been dedicated to farming began to have the idea of starting a business.

Because, the market entry tax has been abolished. They only need to spend a silver tael to buy a product and sell it in the market.

Only the income from the successful sale shall be taxed. Otherwise, there is no need to pay any taxes.

With this premise, many farmers who originally wanted to do business, but were worried about losing money, began to try to buy goods for sale.

Those merchants who were originally in business and wanted to resist the commercial tax policy refused to enter the market to sell goods, so they gave up the stall space they originally occupied.

Those new merchants who have no place to sell, with the support of Dong Hongjie's policy, use these vacant places for free.

Because they have just entered the market, they do not have a deep understanding of the market, so these new merchants have a good price at the beginning.

Originally, 6 copper plates and one pound of cabbage were sold, but now only 4 copper plates are needed. Originally, 15 copper plates were sold for a pound of pork, but now only 10 copper plates are needed.

With the infusion of new merchants, the prices of most products in the market have started to decrease. This phenomenon made the people of Jinling very happy.

After all, being able to buy the same thing for less money is in itself worth rejoicing.

Therefore, for Dong Hongjie's new policy, the people of Jinling generally support it, and those new merchants have also earned money that they did not dare to earn before because of the new policy.

They also happily chose to support Dong Hongjie's new policy.

Because of this, Dong Hongjie was happily called the master of Qingtian, a good official of Jinling, a beneficiator of Jinling, and so on, praising Dong Hongjie's nickname.

Dong Hongjie is very happy about this. It is difficult for him to be unhappy about this kind of good thing that can earn official achievements and win the hearts of the people.

The old merchants who originally resisted could no longer resist after resisting for a few days. It's not that Dong Hongjie is forcing them, but the market is forcing them, if they continue to resist, they will not be able to eat in Jinling business.

Many of the businesses that originally belonged to them were taken away by new merchants. If they don't change, if they don't enter the market to seize the share, they will not even have a mouthful of soup waiting for them.

They no longer resisted and chose to accept their fate.

But when they want to enter the market, they encounter new problems. The market is so big, and their original stalls no longer belong to them.

They want to do business, but they don't have the place to do it.

In this regard, these old merchants were depressed, but they could not do anything. They couldn't stand it, so they had to go to the prefect's office to ask Dong Hongming to solve this problem.

At first, Dong Hongjie didn't see these people at all, these people came, Dong Hongjie didn't show up, but he ordered his subordinates to invite these people to the back office for tea.

Of course, I drank Kuding tea.

Even ordinary Kuding tea has a particularly bitter taste. These old merchants were already in a bad mood, and when they drank Kuding tea, they were even more uncomfortable.

At this time, how could they not understand that Dong Hongjie was mocking them.

But even if they understand, for the sake of their jobs, they can only pretend not to understand, and they can only stay here.

Although the tree dies, the man lives. But in another place, it is not so easy to develop. In particular, these old merchants have taken root in Jinling for many years, and have a certain network in Jinling, although the market has changed now, as long as Dong Hongjie gives them another chance, it is difficult to say that they will recover the previous situation, but at least they can continue to mix in this industry.

These old merchants drank Kuding tea for three or four days in the prefect's mansion, just when they were already accustomed to Kuding tea and were already about to give up.

Dong Hongzhuo met with them face to face.

As soon as Dong Hongjie came forward, these old merchants all wiped their tears and confessed their mistakes to Dong Hongjie one by one, and asked Dong Hongjie to come forward to solve the problem for them.

Dong Hongjie looked at them and admired the Qin Dynasty even more in his heart.

Today's scene, the Qin Dynasty had already told him in private, and told him how to solve this problem.

After this incident, his status in Jinling City will be greatly improved. Those big merchants, because they have their own stores, although they don't need to worry about having nowhere to do business, but because they haven't done business for many days, they still have a lot of losses.

Together, these losses are much more than the tax revenue from the business tax. In this regard, these smart big businessmen silently chose to accept their fate.

They can also see that if they continue to fight against Dong Hongjie, they must lose the most.

The mantis arm is a car, and if you continue to do it, you will definitely die by yourself.

As for looking for the emperor's relatives and relatives, looking for the Taishou who has a bigger official position than the Jinling prefect, they haven't thought about it, and it's not that they haven't tried.

But as a result, whether it was the emperor's relatives or the Taishou, they all chose not to oppose Dong Hongjie's new policy, but they did not participate.

Dong Hongjie looked at these old merchants in front of him and said: "Everyone, as long as you are willing to build Jinling with this official, this official is willing to solve problems for you." ”

"The problem you encounter is the problem that the officer encounters. We will do our best to solve all kinds of problems for you. ”

"As for the problems you are encountering at present, this official has long expected them, and as for the solutions, this official has long been aware of them."

"Everyone, please go back, tomorrow I will instruct the official to issue an announcement to solve your problems."

After hearing that Dong Hongjie had promised to solve their problems, these old merchants all hugged their fists and spoke to Dong Hongjie one by one, and then left the prefect's mansion accompanied by the subordinates ordered by Dong Hongjie.

Looking at the backs of these people leaving, Dong Hongjie couldn't help laughing.

"My Dong Hongjie's good days are still ahead."
