Chapter 220: Conquest

Throughout the afternoon, Chen Xie's unhurried and sonorous voice echoed in front of the hall.

"Preferential exemption, encompropriation, sprinkling, and trickery, these phenomena, you can't admit them, right? So may I ask, who will bear the burden of stealing taxes by these means? So, may I ask, is the gentry class competing with the state for interests? So may I ask, the tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty is not enough for the state, should this person with vested interests come out and take responsibility? So how many of these people are willing to donate their silver to the state as military spending? Let me ask you again, how much was the commercial tax during the Wanli period? Today's Daming, where did the business tax go? There is one thing you must not know, the tea production is loud in Zhejiang, and the annual tea tax is only six taels of silver, so it is better not to collect it. ”

The rhythm of the conversation in the afternoon was firmly grasped by Chen Xie, who kept asking questions, and then asked and answered himself. Chen Xie's questions were one after another, and the arrogant Liu Ru was directly asked stupidly, and later instinctively accepted Chen Xie's point of view. These questions are really difficult for her, but Chen Xie has no intention of letting her go at all, not to bully her, but not to hope that there will be a dissident in his fortress in the future.

"Well, you don't have to answer, you can't answer either. I am saying this today to make you understand that what you see and what you hear is sometimes not necessarily the truth. The Daming Gentleman Group controls the right to speak, and your life circle is so big, and you have little social experience, so it is normal to be blinded by the illusion created by others. ”

After Chen Xie's closing words came out, the feeling of Liu Ru pressing on his chest like a big stone disappeared. There's a concept in my head. Why does this brother-in-law Chen have so many questions, how can he know so many things. Each of his questions had convincing answers, and these answers, in turn, supported his views.

"Sihua, since you have seen so many problems, why don't you solve them?" Compared with Liu Rus, Zheng Toniang's attitude is still very peaceful and not so sharp. Probably because the relationship is closer, and it has been conquered psychologically and physically.

After Chen Xie was asked, he was silent. Silently lit a cigarette. Look out of the yard. Outside is a Jiangnan at sunset. Catkins fluttered in the air like red-dyed snow. There was silence for a long time, and the two women were unexpectedly quiet, waiting for his answer. Interestingly. The man in front of him looks like a sculpture on the side. Surrounded by their trusting and gentle gazes.

"I've seen these problems though. There are ways to solve these problems, but at the moment I don't have the ability to solve them. I don't know if you'll understand. Or rather. Now is not the time to address these issues. The biggest crisis of the Ming Dynasty has actually come, externally, there are Jiannu and Tartar, and internally, on the land of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ning, and Jin provinces, thieves have swept through. I dare to say responsibly that within two years, the prosperous Jiangnan will be able to feel the crisis from the thieves. Chen Xie spoke very slowly, every word was very clear, and the two women listened very seriously. In their lives, they rarely have access to these. Chen Xie's appearance is equivalent to pushing open a window to let them know that this country is not only the Qinhuai River with singing and dancing.

Although they were a little disappointed, both of them were very knowledgeable and did not emphasize Chen Xie's responsibility. Liu Ru is even very smart brain: "Brother-in-law, are you doing this now just to prepare for future changes?" ”

Chen Xie nodded with a smile and said, "You are right, what I can do now is to continue to strengthen my strength, and then work hard to influence everyone around me." One more thing, I want you to remember, what I said today must not be talked about with outsiders. If you tell outsiders, I won't admit that I said that. ”

Brother-in-law Chen's image was not damaged because of this sentence, but added a few different things. For example: wise, calm, steady, and so on. Then, the man who sat there, like a mountain, his figure heavy in the setting sun.

Standing up gently, Liu Ru bowed down and said solemnly: "The slave family has been taught!" ”

Liu Ru chose to go back to the guest room, in the backyard under the sunset, when there were only two people left, Zheng Toniang, who had always spoken sharply, lost the sharpness of the past, only a faint worry, leaned on the man and said: "Sihua, has Daming really reached such a crisis?" How do you plan to change this qiē in the future, how do you respond to the attack? ”

Chen Xie smiled and hugged the woman leaning beside him, and said with a confident smile on the corner of his mouth: "What about attacking in groups?" When I launch, see if their mouths are fast, or if my silver is faster than knives. Tu Niang, you don't have to look at these gentlemen as much as you want, once these people leave the stable social environment, just looking at the individual, they are a bunch of waste. What I am doing now is actually a contest of public opinion, infiltrating interests, dividing and encroaching on this seemingly huge interest group. At most, three or five years, you will see how big the situation and influence I have laid down in Nanjing. My fight with these people is not on the same level at all. Tell you now, you may not be able to understand, but in the future, when you look at the results, you will know the truth. ”

Despite not getting a complete answer, Zheng Toniang decided to believe Chen Xie unconditionally and do what he said. Although this man has only been in contact for a short day, the charm that blooms from him is like a huge whirlpool rolling people in. People can't help but be fascinated by it, and the Jiangnan scribes who used to admire were touched in just one day, and the mask was torn apart by this man lightly and thrown on the ground. Chen Xie used one living example after another to put the truth of the facts in front of him, this kind of persuasion and influence is not something that a girl like Zheng Toniang can resist at all. Not to mention the pleasure of the physical level, it's a pity that Zheng Toniang hasn't read Zhang Ailing, otherwise she would definitely be a confidant.

The arrival of the fake mother interrupted the scene where the two snuggled up to each other, and Chen Xie looked at her unhappily. There were several fighting men who went back and forth on the battlefield, and a look made this thirty-year-old woman have a powerless awe.

"Master Chen, the money clerk is back from outside, waiting outside. By the way, he also brought the little grandfather of Wei Guogong's house. ”

Hearing the little grandfather, Zheng Toniang showed disgust and said, "Sihua, how can you also have a relationship with this kind of person?" ”

Chen Xie just smiled and bowed his head, a gentle look, and Zheng Toniang's attitude softened: "Okay, I'll wait and see." ”

Before coming out of the hall, seeing Grandpa Xu lowering his head and playing with his pocket watch, Chen Xie stepped forward unhurriedly, and stood up with a smile when he didn't have much money: "Sihua, everyone Zheng." "Old money, who was born as a businessman, really has no status, at least on the surface.

"Yo, Master Chen is here, rude and rude." As soon as Grandpa Xu raised his head, he still sat still. Chen Xie stood up, looking condescendingly at this guy who was still pretending to be an uncle, and didn't answer. Grandpa Xu was furious when he was watched, remembered the scene in the alley at the door, stood up nervously, and said again: "Xu has seen Mr. Chen." ”

Chen Xie said lightly: "In the face of a second-grade general soldier, you kid can still sit there steadily, and you can count it as you can bear it." Chen Xie's tone was full of disdain, and the little grandfather was not angry, but thinking of the old man's words, he endured his dissatisfaction and said: "Everything has been agreed with Lao Qian, according to the conditions you offered." ”

Chen Xie sat down slowly, picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip unhurriedly, and said, "Do you think so, first open the money bank, on your territory, don't you want to do whatever you want in the future?" ”

This sentence asked the sore spot, and he really thought so. The product was still a little tender, and blurted out: "How do you know?" After speaking, he reacted, and became angry: "You kid slandered me!" Chen Xie raised his hand and threw the teacup in his hand, and ran to his front door, the frightened eyes were closed, and before the teacup hit his face, he only heard a bang, and then his neck was hot, jumping and shaking.

Qian Duo looked worried, and wanted to persuade Chen Xie, but after being stopped by a stern look, he sat back with peace of mind. The teacup smashed on the pillar next to the little grandfather, and the hot tea burned his neck. Young Grandpa Xu pointed at Chen Xie and said tremblingly: "You dare to smash me? ”

Chen Xie sneered twice: "Just a waste like you, if it weren't for the face of the old man, you would be worthy of earning money behind me?" What about making you rich, silly boy, do you think you're really a character? If you are interested, sit down quickly, and don't jump around playing monkey play. ”

There is not much money at this time, and he has a strong executive power, and he walked on the side and said: "Little grandfather, Guogong Mansion, there is more than one man." With just one sentence, this kid was born. Endured that his clothes were wet, sat down and said, "Okay, I'll put up with it." ”

Chen Xie gave a thumbs up and said, "Okay, I'll be patient with you, I look up to you." Old money, sue him. ”

The money was not much and whispered in his ear, and Grandpa Xu couldn't help but stand up and say with a look of surprise on his face: "Is it really five thousand taels a year?" ”

Chen Xie just took the new tea brought by Zheng Tuoniang, put the teacup on the coffee table fiercely, and shouted: "Sit down and talk!" ”

Young Grandpa Xu glanced at Chen Xie in fear, now that he is not a national prince, he naturally has no confidence. Even if he is the prince of the country, he doesn't even have the ability to leave the boundary of Nanjing. Daming's group of Wenchen, with eyes like wolves, are always waiting to bite Xungui. It's not a big deal for him to make trouble in Nanjing City, why don't you leave one and try it? There are so many princes in the Ming Dynasty, who can leave the fiefdom? For example, King Lu of Jinan is very difficult to even go out of Jinan City to go to Qingqing. The Wenchen of the Ming Dynasty was very harsh in dealing with the nobles.

Qian didn't sneer and watched him sit down, and continued: "The little grandfather is looking for a store, and I will solve the supply of goods." Dividends are distributed once every six months, and the broken things in Nanjing City are solved by the little grandfather. There is no problem, just sign this contract and press your fingerprint, in the future in Nanjing, just such a store to buy clocks and watches, the little grandfather feels that he can't earn money if he can not agree.
