The county lord of Xiangcheng?

The little chamberlain who passed the decree was stunned on the spot, carefully searching for Wei Linglan's information from his mind.

Fortunately, when he went to Jiangling City to run an errand, this little chamberlain also worked hard in advance, as a few nobles in Jiangling City, Wei Linglan, the county lord of Xiangcheng, will naturally not be forgotten.

"My lord, at this moment, how do you ask the slave to present this matter to the mother?"

The little chamberlain smiled bitterly, and he didn't know how to complain about Zhao Hengyi in his heart, "But the slave maid boldly figured out, as long as you report this matter to the mother, you will definitely be able to get what you want!" ”

"I'm talking about it, but it's a flat wife."

Zhao Hengyi's eyes suddenly became sharp, startling the little chamberlain, "Zhao is a person who misses the old, and his wife is just an ordinary folk woman, if he marries the lord of Xiangcheng County, it will inevitably make his wife a concubine...... Zhao can't do this kind of thing. ”

"Master Hou, how long has it been since you heard from the Great Yan Kingdom?"

The waiter looked strange, "Mrs. Zun is now a noble order, a good product, wearing the formal clothes rewarded by the court, Master Hou, you have to salute when you see it, who dares to make her a concubine?" ”

Zhao Hengyi: ......?!

My Xiaoyu, is she so powerful now?!

No, if it becomes like this, then what is the purpose of Ben Hou making wind and rain in the Wa Kingdom?

It's not right, Benhou doesn't show his strength in the Wa Kingdom, I'm afraid that those officials in the court won't know each other like this!

"In this way, Zhao can go home now and wait to marry his daughter-in-law?"

"That's right, Master Hou, you just wait to marry the county lord of Xiangcheng! Presumably, when Lu Guogong heard about this, he would only be overjoyed! ”

Zhao Hengyi didn't know that as his actions in the Wa Kingdom were transmitted back to the court of the Great Yan Kingdom, his identity was soaring!

As long as Wei Linglan is willing, Lu Guogong, as a father, will only applaud for having a good son-in-law, and it is impossible to stop it!

Things have come to this point, and it won't be interesting to hold it again, but on the side of the Wa Kingdom, Zhao Hengyi wants to let go, and he has to make some arrangements.

The envoy of the Yan Kingdom arrived in the Wa Kingdom, which was originally something that could not be hidden, and for those who were looking forward to the Wa people, this special meow was tantamount to the manifestation of the gods!

In order to be able to send the White Palace Xia Gong back to the Great Yan Kingdom, the entire Wa Kingdom has taken action!

The monks who were forced to unite the three sects didn't care about the internal strife, and gave the White Palace the title of Superior First to the White Palace!

The royal family has already come ahead of us, so we can't let Shinto take the lead again, right?

Immediately, the monks began to advocate the policy of dividing land on Kyushu Island, and the peasants could not even enjoy the five gongs and five people before, but now they only use two gongs and eight people, and even the land is returned to the peasants, which can be called countless living people!

The honorific title of the great bodhisattva of the present world is sent, and His Royal Highness must make persistent efforts!

When Zhao Hengyi saw it, he was immediately happy, and the monks also know how to observe words and feelings!

At the moment, Zhao Hengyi ordered people to announce to the world that in the future, the land rent on the land of the Wa Kingdom shall not exceed the proportion of four dukes and six people!

Suddenly, the world was boiling!

To put it bluntly, this thing is to buy people's hearts, and in the case of the vigorous land division movement on Kyushu Island, among the other daimyo territories, those ordinary people will inevitably be ready to move.

Instead of waiting until those big names couldn't hold on and took the initiative to reduce the land rent, this great benevolent man still did Zhao Hengyi himself!

At the same time, after integrating the power of the royal family, the ministers, and the shogunate, Zhao Hengyi had already taken action against the merchant group.

Nowadays, everyone in the Wa Kingdom knows that the only existing daimyo in the entire Kyushu Island, the Iijima family of Hirado Castle, is the white glove under the White Palace, and the Iijima family came out to collect taxes on all the maritime merchants who traveled to and from the Wa Kingdom, which was really a lot of money!

Those great names like the Emperor of the Earth looked at each other, and many people already thought in their hearts, since the merchants can be taxed under the White Palace, can we also tax the merchants of the Wa Kingdom itself?

Someone tentatively expressed his thoughts to Zhao Hengyi, and he got his approval in an instant!

These merchants of the Wa Kingdom are even more troublesome than the merchants of the Great Yan Kingdom, and no matter how much commercial tax can be received in the inland of the Great Yan Kingdom, at least the maritime trade will send twenty or thirty million taels of tax silver to the imperial court every year!

The fact that the Great Yan Kingdom was able to hold out for so long under the situation of the barbarians being in the border for so long was inseparable from the taxes and silver paid by the maritime merchants.

On the contrary, it was a heavy tax imposed on ordinary people, and the tax silver collected in the entire Great Yan Kingdom in a year was only one or two million taels.

The officials scavenged more than this amount of tax silver from the heads of the ordinary people, and even the two million taels did not even account for a 10% share of the taxes collected as a whole, and as for where the rest of the mercury he received from the heads of the people went, even the old officials could not tell!

One of the most important reasons for such a generous tax on overseas trade is that there are not many officials and departments in charge.

After a long time, the bosses at the helm of the DPRK and the Central Committee also saw clearly that this thing was the lifeline of the entire Dayan Kingdom, and no one could move it!

If you want to make a profit from it and make money from it, then you can go to the sea merchants to buy shares by yourself!

Under such circumstances, it has created the strange appearance of Dayan Kingdom.

Ordinary people in the people are miserable because of all kinds of taxes, and there will even be a strange person like Zhao Hengyi before, in order not to pay taxes, he would rather not marry a daughter-in-law than get married, even if he is arrested and beaten in prison, he does not intend to give in!

Even as the number of men continues to decrease, there is a huge shortage of soldiers at the border gates, and the court will acquiesce to the local expropriation, because only in this way can the people who cannot afford to pay taxes be sent to the border to fight against the barbarians.

It's not that the court doesn't know that this kind of behavior is tantamount to drinking to quench thirst, but the situation is stronger than people, so they can only take care of the present.

On the contrary, after the shogunate took power, the samurai rose, and the special political environment created chaos in the whole country, and the daimyo were strong and weak, and even had to adopt a policy of reckless military force because of complex grievances, which gave the merchant group the opportunity to secretly seize power for a hundred years.

Secretly manipulating large and small daimyos through continuous borrowing, and even influencing the shogunate's decision-making to a certain extent, is already the most proud feat within the merchant group!

In such a situation, the Matsuura family, who had previously been entrenched in Hirado Castle, spent a lot of money to attract investment, so how could other daimyo dare to collect business taxes?

In later generations, the manipulation of the political situation in the Japanese chaebol has become the norm, and its roots are derived from this.

But for these merchant groups in the Wa Kingdom, Zhao Hengyi has an innate ability to suppress.

In today's Wa Sea area, Zhao Hengyi's Qiongzhou regimental training has become an unrivaled armed force, and Zhao Hengyi has the ability to decide life and death for all imported and exported commodities.

The quota system for overseas commodities and the unified pricing and sales of goods exported by the Japanese state are only these two items, and there is no need to use soldiers, and the merchant group needs to obediently bow down and make it smaller.

And in charge of these matters is the Hirado Port Management Committee, which was previously considered a joke by businessmen!
