Businessmen don't do loss-making business, the wool is out of the sheep, the higher my cost, the more expensive the price will be, if you can't sell it, it won't be produced, but the Baijia army from soldiers to military households up and down hundreds of thousands of people, will lose the source of cheap living materials, earn not as much as civilians, but the daily expenses are about the same, Mr. Qian, which side of life do you say is more difficult? ”

"I know it's hard to do business, but if you want a discount, you have to wait until I go back and do the math to know how much discount I can give you." Bai Qing's momentum that had just gained the upper hand was as soft as water.

"Also, when I buy general goods from overseas merchant ships, I also charge less tax."

"Eh, can this also be taxed?"

"Yes, referring to the goods in Haishi Street, Dong'an Fu, they are sold so expensively, a little overseas spice is eager for people to pay with gold, except that these goods are indeed expensive to cross the sea, and then they are heavily taxed after going ashore, and the merchants are naturally sold according to several times more than ten times the purchase price in order to recover their capital and profits."

“…… Is this the reason why things in Haishi Street are so expensive? Bai Qing and his deputies looked at each other, Cheng Feng didn't know that it was reasonable, and Bai Qing didn't know it, so he could only blame himself for his negligence.

"Your Excellency is busy with official business." Qi Ke nodded with a smile.

"I understand what you mean, I will make another charter to classify the types of goods brought by overseas merchant ships, and as long as the general goods related to people's livelihood are unloaded and landed at the wharf in our bay, they will not be taxed heavily."

"Okay~" Qi Ke smiled obediently, for the sake of the raw materials for her textile factory next year, she must do a good job here, otherwise she will be heavily taxed if she enters a boatload of cotton, then even if her factory can produce as usual, the final production of cloth is estimated to be unaffordable for ordinary people.

"So, that's pretty much it, right?"

"Well, that's pretty much it, that's all you can think of now, and if there's anything you can't think of, you can only find out when you really start building."

"Where did you hear all this?"

"Of course, I heard it from the boatmen of Jia Ji Boat Company, every time they come to eat at the inn, everyone gets acquainted, and they sit together to chat when they have leisure, and there are many merchants on their boats, many of whom are running to Haishi Street in Dong'an Prefecture, and the story is passed on by word of mouth, and it is not more and more widespread."

"When I hear such stories in the future, I will share them with me."

"No problem."

"Okay, that's all for today, I'll take what we're discussing back and discuss it with the general and other upper-level generals, they are stationed in Dong'an Mansion, maybe there are better suggestions." Bai Qing checked that the ink on the piece of paper he wrote had dried, and the one he wrote was rolled together into a loose paper tube.

"Okay." The advice has been given, and the rest is to do everything to obey the destiny of heaven, Qi Ke also has to be patient and wait for the news, whether it will succeed or not is no longer up to her.

Everyone had to think about the future money-making plan, and the time was not early, so they no longer sat for a long time, and got up to say goodbye.

Qi Ke sent off the guests and sent them out of the gate of Zhuangzi.

"Alright, now it's our turn, see how much silver we have in our hands now?"

Qi Ke and Zhaolin returned to the back house, and today they got the thousands of acres of land promised by Bai Qing, and they will be engaged in construction next year, so she has to calculate her available funds.
