Attached to this clause is a sample declaration form.

In addition to the basic information of the merchant, it seems that it is also necessary to indicate the sale of the goods. Victor looked at it several times, and a flash of lightning flashed in his mind.

I see! His gaze quickly moved over the fourth and fifth rules, gradually grasping the intent of these two rules—taxes!

Like most cities, Neverwinter is not exempt from commercial taxes, but in reality it is not mandatory to pay taxes. He has always paid taxes according to his actual income, but among businessmen, tax evasion can be said to be very common, and people like him are outliers.

Those who bought a fixed store also paid a nominal part of the money, while those who rented a shop or wandered around paid a little money. Compared to the patrols of the past, which were still extorted and demanded by eating and taking cards, the stable and relaxed environment of Neverwinter City was no different from the zero-tax trading cities of Golden Spike City and Eagle City for small merchants, and even better - it was this condition that allowed the new king to develop a prosperous market in a very short period of time.

But it doesn't look like this situation is going to last forever.

Although the filing fee is exempt, you must also submit your own source of income, and if the administrative agency deducts taxes accordingly, no one will have anything to say.

So there is no way to avoid it?

Apparently there are. As long as you don't exchange the new dollars for the Golden Dragon, you can directly use the proceeds to buy the goods of Neverwinter and sell them elsewhere, which can make up for this loss.

But that's just to make up for it.

Victor was all too familiar with the situation, no one can guarantee that income and expenses will be exactly equal, and in order to keep the business afloat, the new currency will generally be more than the old currency. They either go to the Executive Hall and exchange them for Golden Dragons, or save them for the next use.

After a long period of time, it will gradually become such a situation: many merchants will have a certain amount of paper money in their hands, and since it can indeed buy things, and it is easy to carry, merchants will also exchange with each other sooner or later - at first it is only an equivalent exchange for gold dragons, but later it may be possible to buy goods directly with it.

This also means that no matter which choice the merchant makes, it will be good for Neverwinter!

However, the point is that it is not difficult to do this, but it is difficult to take into account the feelings of the businessman. In the past, there were countless lords who had been killed, but these policies of Wudong did not actually harm the interests of the merchants.

Registration and declaration can provide tax revenue for the city, thereby creating a better trade environment, and considering that legal operators often receive preferential policy treatment, it is generally not too much of a loss.

Merchants who have been holding paper money are not much different from the past, and they can still avoid taxes while spreading paper money farther away. As long as Neverwinter's goods are irreplaceable, the new coins will take the Golden Dragon's place little by little, even in areas that are not under the jurisdiction of the King of the Greyhold!

Victor noticed that in fact, not only the last two, but also the whole text of the New Deal revealed a gentle flavor, and the subtlety was its biggest feature.

There is no doubt that as long as the King of the Grey Keep controls the grain trade in his territory, the new currency will have value, and even if there is no lack of policy pushes, the main reason is the vast market of Neverwinter.

The fleeing businessmen probably did not have given much thought to the implications of these terms – it would be short-sighted to abandon such a promising market for fear of monetary reform.

What he had thought was a fool's dream was not as unbelievable as he had expected, and if it was properly controlled, His Majesty Roland Wimbledon might be able to do it.

Thinking along that line, Victor couldn't help but shudder.

Replacing the Golden Dragon is just the beginning......

Once everyone has accepted the new currency, His Majesty will have unlimited wealth, and any business plan will be nothing compared to it.

If the news reaches the Dawn Kingdom, I'm afraid that those great nobles who are proud of their ability to trade will be shocked.

The only question now is whether others will be able to copy His Majesty's new currency.

When the salary was paid two days later, Victor immediately asked Linglong to get back a set of banknotes from the residents at a price of 1.5 times.

At the first sight of it, the suspicion in the jeweler's mind completely disappeared without a trace.

"These pieces of paper ...... It's so beautiful. Linglong couldn't help but play with a brand new banknote and couldn't help but admire.

"Indeed," Victor agreed. The new currency looked very valuable, very different from the "paper money" he had expected, soft and flexible when rubbed in his hand, which was obviously not the effect that ordinary paper could achieve.

And the most special thing is the patterns and patterns on it.

There are six types of banknotes, ranging from 1,000 to 10 denominations, the largest of which is equivalent to a golden dragon, which can also be seen in its golden lines. The remaining divisions were five hundred, one hundred, fifty, twenty and ten, and His Majesty replaced the original division with a new unit, "Yuan". Depending on the denomination, the color and pattern are also different, for example, the front of the 1,000 yuan is printed with the heads of the king and queen, which looks lifelike. Underneath is the inscription Grey Fort Royal Bank, which is clearly outlined, although it occupies only a small area.

If you look closer, you will find that both the handwriting and the portrait are made of countless tiny stripes, which are even thinner than a hair, but there is no trace of dipping or adhesion between them, and this alone is enough to cut off the idea of imitation by others.

Victor looked at the other coins in turn, five hundred dollars for the Witches' Federation, one hundred for the factories and workers, and the rest for the new gadgets in Neverwinter, such as the Miracle Building, the train, and so on...... And on the back is the coat of arms of the Grey Castle with two guns in the tower. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, it was clear that the designs on the new coin had been carefully designed and carefully considered, and from the outside, it was no different from ordinary works of art, and some Fiordland collectors would be willing to spend money on them, even if they did not have monetary value.

This is a very clever approach, and printing such a colorful banknote will undoubtedly increase the cost, but it will also subconsciously increase the confidence of the people. If it's just an ordinary piece of paper, saying that it can replace the golden dragon, I'm afraid no one dares to believe it easily, but if it is replaced by a shiny thing, the effect will be much better—even if there is no essential difference between them.

Victor put down the notes and let out a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?" asked Linglong curiously.

"The whole business world is about to change. He whispered back.
