Chapter 58: Crusade against Xiajia Town
"I don't know what kind of tax Mr. Cao collects?"
Cao Cao said righteously, "Of course, it's the town's tax."
"Is this town's tax land? or what?"
"Of course, all the output in the town must be taxed. β
"Okay, just when Mr. Cao is right, the ownership of this land hasn't been figured out yet, this tax should be exempted, right? Secondly, the county doesn't have a penny of investment in the output above, right? We haven't asked the county for any allocation, why should we pay taxes if they don't invest a penny?"
"This... β
"Okay, even if your county is unreasonable and says that you collect poll tax, most of our townspeople are Zhao people from Zhao State, you can go out and ask, why do you collect taxes from Zhao people according to the laws of Wei State?"
"This γγγγγ β
"You're saying that all the output in this town comes from Yunmeng Mountain, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Wei State, right? Since even the output is not in the territory of Wei, why should we pay taxes?"
"This γγγγγ β
"You'd better not push me, push me. I'll just say that this is the territory of Zhao State, and I'll drive you all out. β
"Wang Meng, you are bold, you are shameless. β
"I also said that you are shameless, you come to collect taxes without any input, you bandits. β
Cao Cao was completely furious, and after talking for a long time, he found that any reason for collecting taxes was not valid. But I've already put out the big talk with the county, and I'm going back like this?
Cao Cao smiled angrily and said, "Haha, good, good, good Wang Meng." You're going to refuse to pay your taxes, aren't you? Aren't you afraid that the county will send troops to encircle and suppress your small county?"
Wang Meng pouted, how could he not be afraid, he must be afraid. But he was unwilling to pay taxes like this, and he couldn't hold too much about one more thing than one less thing and said, "Who said I don't pay it, but I pay taxes, what kind of services can the government provide me?"
This sentence made Cao Cao sound so confused, for thousands of years, the government has only been responsible for collecting taxes, how can there be any service? Could it be that this Wang Meng is telling himself about the conditions? Since he agrees to pay taxes and ask, Cao Cao suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Then Mr. Wang, what is your opinion?"
"Well, I don't ask for muchγγγγγ β
In the county seat, a piece of paper was placed on the county magistrate's bookcase, "This is Wang Meng's request?"
"Yes, five in total"
"Well, this official has read it, what kind of nonsense is written on it, and what does he want to do?"
"I also read above, he asked the court to recognize their legal status, I feel that this article is still said in the past, but then he asked for their autonomous status, and recognized their neutrality, this article is a bit too much"
"What is this right of neutrality?"
According to Wang Meng's consciousness, if there is a war at the border pass, he has the right to maintain a neutral position, to put it simply, if there is a war in my Great Wei, it has nothing to do with him how he likes to fight. β
The county order slapped the book case and said, "Nonsense, this is contempt for the imperial court"
Cao Cao was stimulated by the negotiation with Wang Meng, so he also blew the wind: "Yes, my lord, Shengming, this is a naked contempt for the imperial court." β
Where in this world are there untouchables who talk to the court about the conditions, this Wang Meng is too bold to dare to talk to the court about the conditions, Tian Xian Ling couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and said, "Come on, Xiajia Town will resist taxes and not pay, let Deputy General Tian lead 10,000 horses and 20 monks, and crusade against this small Xiajia Town in a month." β
"My lord, Shengming... β
At this time, Wang Meng was lying on the recliner, lazily basking in the sun at noon in winter. Recently, the development of Xiajia Town is getting more and more rapid, the day before yesterday Tie Nan got 7 large excavators and 20 large engineering vehicles from the earth, the speed of the overall city wall construction has been greatly improved, according to the foreman said that in a month or so, the overall city wall can be completed, but now the cement can not be used, so the reinforcement is still waiting for the spring.
After these large construction trucks drove into the town, the townspeople were overwhelmed by the steel behemoths, which led to a lot of chaos in the town. Later, when the townspeople learned that these monsters were machines made of steel, not monsters, they slowly settled down.
Looking at these huge monsters, the roar and momentum of the movement, a shovel down to top the work of dozens of people, not only the townspeople but also a few monks in the town were shocked. And Wang Meng can only use it, this is a magic weapon invented in the family to prevaricate, a few monks studied for a long time and found that this magic weapon does not use spirit stones, but when eating oil, Wang Meng explained to Wang Meng, Wang Meng understands this, even if he understands, he can't say no, only that this is a family secret to deal with.
To say that the best momentum of development is of course the business in the town, now not only the merchants of the Wei State come here to trade, even the Zhao State and the Naiman tribe also have merchants to come, just a few days ago the first large-scale wholesale department in the town announced the opening, Wang Meng and more than a dozen earth travelers cut the ribbon, but also announced that the products on the earth officially entered the market of the Xiuzhen world.
According to the plan of Wang Meng and many traversers, to build a series of high-end industrial chains such as eating, drinking, and entertainment, trade and logistics, they are also confident to occupy all the high-end civilian markets in the world.
Take the perfume to be launched by the wholesale department recently, this conference invited famous businessmen from all over the world, and all the travelers are also confident to enter the high-end cosmetics market in various countries with perfume as the core.
More than 100 firearms were also issued by Wang Meng to the young men of the security team early, and they are being trained by Liu Suo for live ammunition target shooting every day.
There are also some bad points, one is that this tax collection has made Wang Meng's originally good mood a mess, and there are fewer and fewer beasts and monsters that can be hit recently, and under the meeting of everyone, the first may be that the hunting has been too ruthless recently, and the beasts have migrated away. The second is that there are too many wild animals on the mountain, which are about to become protected animals. But the second point is unlikely to be true, this Yunmeng Mountain is boundless, and they put the trap on the mountain. Therefore, Wang Meng believes that the possibility of animal migration is relatively high, so he has now successively put traps on the mountains farther away. In fact, Wang Meng also knows that it is not a long-term way to catch it like this, but before the establishment of the town's farm, there is no way to do it, after all, in order to improve the quality of life of the people in the town, some meat is necessary.
Turning over lazily, Wang Meng saw a small black dot in the sky in the distance, which was flying like this, and when this small black dot was getting bigger and bigger, Wang Meng saw it clearly.
"Eh, I'll go, isn't this Brother Qian? Why is this guy here?"
