Chapter 370: Halfway Out
Xu Ke felt a little headache.
What the hell is the family going to do this week?
Aren't they a hermit family? Don't you like to keep it low-key the most? Why hasn't it stopped lately......
Xu Ke rubbed his head.
It turned out that in fact, the Zhou family, as a hidden family, could hide it from others, but it definitely couldn't hide it from the City Lord's Mansion of Tianshui City, not to mention anything else, just check the household registration in the City Lord's Mansion, and then check who has the most property within the jurisdiction of Tianshui City.
The data doesn't panic.
Directly speaking, it can be determined as the location of the so-called hidden family of the Zhou family, and even the wealth of the Zhou family can be accurately calculated.
Of course, it can only be calculated on the surface, that is, on the surface.
After all, the hermit family also has to pay taxes, so can it be said that the hermit family can not be called tax?
Doesn't that mean that everyone is a hidden family, and everyone doesn't need to pay taxes?
Xu Ke's real headache is not as simple as collecting taxes, although many times these things can indeed make it a mess, after all, tax collection is a robbery of money in the eyes of many people, especially for some large families.
There are even high tax rates, and some taxes can even reach 50%, or even more!
In other words, if someone earns a hundred yuan, they will give you fifty yuan, or even more, so why?
Although the tax collection is very reasonable, it is simply not enough to stop people from being unwilling to pay.
Xu Ke is responsible for taxes, but the Zhou family is relatively easy to deal with, because although the Zhou family has more industries and pays more taxes, of course, it pays more taxes, but it has never been in arrears, nor has it evaded taxes.
From this point of view, the Zhou family is simply a model for these families.
And the difficult part of the Zhou family is in other places.
It's a little strange to say, but the Zhou family, a hidden family, can be said to be the most high-profile among all the hidden families in the world.
Generally speaking, many hermit families have monopolized an industry in order to reach the point where they have been making profits, and the Zhou family, as a hermit family, is naturally the same, but the Zhou family's near-monopoly industry is not some relatively low-key industry.
For example, there are some hidden families in Dragon City, who almost monopolize the coal trade in the entire world, but coal is too far away from ordinary people, and they don't need to come into contact with these coal and other things in their daily lives.
Naturally, I don't know much about the boss in this industry.
However, the industry that Zhou Jiasuo is almost monopolized is very close to ordinary people, and even many ordinary people have a deep interest in this industry.
This industry is the entertainment industry!
Since ancient times, the Zhou family has not been a big family, but this family has been passed down for almost thousands of years!
At the very beginning, this family was a stage troupe singing, but in a dynasty, when he met a faint monarch who liked to listen to music, the ancestors of the Zhou family actually relied on singing to obtain the position of prime minister!
This sounds a little incredible, but in fact, there are many outrageous things in history that are more outrageous than this, as long as you look at the history books, you will find that history is sometimes more *** than you think.
The ancestor of the Zhou family has changed from a drama to a prime minister, and it just so happens that the ancestor of the Zhou family is also a smart head, in the years he has been in power, not to mention anything else, I don't know how much money has been made for the Zhou family alone!
Later, the dynasty fell, and the Zhou family had already completed the primitive accumulation in this process, and when the foreign enemy came, the Zhou family surrendered directly, surrendered as the prime minister, and was also regarded as a model by the enemy, so it was even more delicious to serve the Zhou family, setting an example for others who were unwilling to surrender.
In this way, the wealth of the Zhou family was still continued in the second dynasty......
Until today, the Zhou family has almost faded out of the imperial court, but as a family that has been inherited for thousands of years, its heritage is very deep.
Especially in recent decades, with the rapid development of the entertainment industry, Zhou
The power of the family is also rising.
The industry is like a mouth-watering cake that anyone wants to take a bite of.
The Zhou family can occupy the largest share in this entertainment industry, and naturally they are not good men and women.
Relying on a ruthless and resolute one!
Don't think that the entertainment industry is all about playing house, those stars on TV look harmless to humans and animals, but in fact, behind the scenes, no one knows how dirty they are.
Xu Ke shook his head, and then looked at the other name written on the paper, Zhou Ye.
Tianhe City is not too far away from Tianshui City, and it won't take long for what happened in that place to spread here.
But usually no one cares about the news from Tianhe City, after all, compared with Tianshui City, Tianhe City is a poor country, and people in the poor countryside have always inquired about life in the big city.
I have never heard of a big city paying so much attention to a backcountry.
But this time is different.
This time, some things in Tianhe City were also noticed by the City Lord's Mansion of Tianshui City.
And the biggest news in Tianhe City recently is undoubtedly that Chu Wenbo, the city lord of Tianhe City, has been directly promoted to the city lord of Dragon City.
Although the news just arrived yesterday, for some well-informed people, this news has actually been noticed a long time ago.
After all, it takes a long time for the imperial court to make a decision and really issue a document, and in this process, even if it is smooth, it will take three or five days, and if it doesn't go well, it will be endless nonsense.
Even a matter can be pulled for ten years or even decades, and nothing will come of it.
And the lord of Longcheng City is also a very important decision for the imperial court, and the selection of the master of Longcheng City will be very fully discussed before it is possible to decide, after all, Longcheng has such a big power and such a big cake, who doesn't want to take it into their own hands?
Therefore, every time a big city like Dragon City needs to change its lord, it will make the imperial court shake.
Although Tianshui City is not as good as Dragon City, it is also a big city that can be counted in the world, as the city lord of Tianshui City, he has already heard the rumors, and some people even asked the city lord of Tianshui City to inquire about the news, and asked who is the backer behind Chu Wenbo in Tianhe City, and why is he on the list of candidates for the city lord of Dragon City this time!
When the city lord of Tianshui City heard the news, he was directly dumbfounded.
Because he was also on the list of candidates for the City Lord of Dragon City this time, he was also very concerned about this position, and it could even be said that he was determined to win.
After all, in terms of qualifications, he is the city lord of Tianshui City, and in terms of connections, he is from the border army, almost no matter how he thinks about it, maybe this Dragon City lord is already in his pocket.
Even the Privy Council supported him as lord of the city.
But I don't know why, in the end, a Cheng biting gold came out halfway.
Xu Ke carefully recalled the explanation given to him by the city lord of Tianshui City, and his hand was on the piece of paper, and he touched and touched Zhou Ye's name.
