Kyogoku Yukiri's eyes lit up for a moment, and she lowered her head slightly and groaned.

As she expected, Wu Nian survived drought and locust plague. And she also won Wu Nian's further favor because she sent charcoal in the snow and brought food.

And Wu Nian also lived up to expectations, quickly defeated Wang Zhongbi, captured Nanhai Mansion, occupied the land of Sanfu, and even invaded Haitian County.

The forces of General Fu Han have reached the four prefectures.

Wu Nian is the male lord she is optimistic about.

Thinking of this, Kyogoku Yukiri raised his head slightly, looked at the lower half of Wu Nian's face very regularly, bowed with low eyebrows and said, "General." As far as I know. Because of the creation of the Fuhan General's Mansion, the various systems are not perfect. ”

"There's no city in it."

Wu Nian's attitude towards Kyogoku Yukiri felt very comfortable. I don't know if the women of Fusang are all so supple.

Immediately, Wu Nian lowered his head lightly and groaned, "Shibosi." ”

Kyogoku Yukiri was right.

The state of Chu has a city division.

This is a yamen specializing in foreign trade. It has the function of collecting commercial taxes and extracting goods. For example, for bulk commodities, the market has the right to look at the name of the goods, and extract 10 percent, or even 20 percent, of the goods as taxes.

In general, the trade on the sea is in large quantities. No merchant would steer a small ship and a little cargo for sea trade.

And only the goods that are not wanted by the market are allowed to be bought and sold privately. Otherwise, if it does not go through the city, it is smuggling.

will be dealt with severely.

To put it simply, it is customs, which is responsible for customs duties.

In Wu Nian's previous life, if he bought a foreign brand of car, he had to pay a staggering amount of tariffs.

And no matter where or what era, there is such a thing as smuggling.

Salt and iron franchise, there is smuggling. There is also smuggling at customs. Whether the smuggling situation is serious or not depends entirely on whether the government cracks down on it or not.

Just like the smuggling of the Chu State is very serious, the city is shrinking day by day, causing the Chu State to lose a lot of tax revenue. And the rich businessmen are rich.

The money was all eaten by the merchants.

In Liaodong.

Prior to this, the Yamen, the general of the Fu Han Dynasty, had only a simple agency that was in charge of customs duties. Smuggling is not uncommon.

Because it is difficult to prevent smuggling. A 10,000-strong army of Li Tianbao has only recently been established.

The second is that Nanhai Mansion is also close to the sea, and it was only recently beaten down by him. At that time, if the city was set up and the taxes and goods of the maritime merchants were forcibly collected, I am afraid that the maritime merchants would go to Nanhai Province to land.

But now the situation is different.

Li Tianbao's 10,000-household navy already has combat effectiveness. Establish a municipal shipping department to cooperate with the navy, and then equip an anti-smuggling army under the municipal shipping department.

Deploy along Nanhai Province and Gwangcheon Province, and hang all the merchants who do not pay taxes.

Collect all the taxes.

City Division. In fact, it is a reason to re-measure the land with Liu Zhixing, find out the hidden fields, and let the big households pay taxes again.

One is for the common people and landlords, and the other is for maritime merchants.

You have to pay the money you have to pay.

If you don't pay it, you will be hanged.

Profitable, of course. But the problem is also huge.

First of all, the market in Liaodong is not large. His subordinates controlled the three provinces. Even if you search up and down, you can't scrape too much money.

Now he will call up 60,000 families of soldiers, and he will pay the food and wages of 18,000,000 households.

Furthermore. Even if the maritime merchants did not land from Nanhae Province and Gwangcheon Province, they could land from Goguryeo Province and smuggle them.

Opposite. He set up a city department, which required a large bureaucratic system and a lot of management costs.

The effect is slow, and the far water can't save the near fire.

But.

In the long run, sooner or later, he will sweep through the three counties of the five prefectures in eastern Liaoning. The market will expand accordingly. It is also good to establish a market division now, plan for the future, and increase a little income by the way.

"Kyogoku-sama is right. It's time for me to set up a city office. Wu Nian bowed his head lightly and said to Kyogoku Yukiri.

As a maritime merchant, Kyogoku Yukiri was able to make a suggestion that he set up a city shipping division.

She really "turned her elbow outward".

Wu Nian's original intention was to let Jingji Xueli come up with an idea, see if there was any good business, and take him around.

But in the end.

Power beggets money. At present, it seems that the most profitable business is the market company.

Kyogoku Yukiri saw that her opinion was adopted by Wu Nian, and a little joy appeared between her eyebrows. But she didn't just want to give an opinion, after considering her tone for a while, she bowed and said cautiously, "General." I beg my pardon. Are you very short of money? ”

"I'm from the Kyoji family, and I'm willing to contribute 50,000 taels of silver."

Wu Nian was speechless about this.

From the first meeting, the girl wanted to stuff herself with money. The first time, I stuffed five thousand taels of silver, and I really accepted it.

Now I want to stuff myself with money again.

But the Kyogoku family is really rich, 50,000 taels of silver. For many wealthy businessmen, this is also an astronomical amount.

Wu Nian was a little moved, but in the end he forcibly suppressed it. Let's not talk about his relationship with the Kyogoku family, relying on a businessman to pay for the war, which is not good.

"Thank you, Miss Kyogoku, for your kindness. But fifty thousand taels of silver, I took it. Wu Nian raised his head and said.

Unable to throw away the silver, Kyogoku Yuki was a little disappointed, but he didn't mess around. Instead, she bowed and apologized, "It's reckless in the snow." ”

"Where, miss, you are also kind." Wu Nian said very seriously and sincerely.

If it was an ordinary businessman, Wu Nian had to doubt the other party's intentions. But in the Kyogoku snow, the two are friends who came out of the wind and rain, and they are not among them.

Kyogoku Yukiri still felt that she was reckless, and became more and more cautious. Wu Nian said something to her and let her go.

Wu Nian raised his head and unconsciously looked at the back of Kyogoku Xueli.

It is said that this Miss Kyogoku has an extremely good-looking face, snow-white skin, but a flat chest, and when you look at it from the front, it is really miserable.

But the buttocks are plump, the waist is very thin, and the back is simply amazing.

Wu Nian looked at it unconsciously, and didn't pay much attention to it.

"Municipality?" Wu Nian muttered to himself for a while, still a little disappointed. Far water can't dissolve near fire.

But the next moment, a flash of lightning suddenly crossed Wu Nian's mind. Then there was a boom in my head. Wu Nian sat for a long time, a pair of tiger eyes flashing.

I seem to have overlooked an important issue.

I am the country.

The country is gone.

In the land of the three provinces, I am omnipotent.

I knew it a long time ago. The fastest way to make money is to print money. It's just that this condition is not yet available.

But there's one thing I can do.

It may allow me to eat a lot of money with a hammer.

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

But there is another idiom.

It's called, out of nothing.
