Chapter 277: The Treasury and the Treasury
Mo Bai still left with a hatred in the end, he could ignore any wishes of Tang Chuyang, but he definitely couldn't ignore the warnings of the other four seventh-order powerhouses, especially after the conflict with Tang Chuyang, the new city lord, even if he returned to the elder group, he would not have a good time.
Although Tang Chuyang became the victorious side in this conflict, he was actually not happy at all, and no matter who offended a seventh-order powerhouse, he was afraid that he would not be able to relax.
But just like Tang Chuyang's mentality of breaking the jar before, anyway, he has offended enough people, and he is not worse than Mobai, he doesn't have to worry if he has too many debts, people always have to look forward, and then find a way to deal with it after something happens.
The reason why he didn't arrange any long-term plans was because Tang Chuyang was not such a far-sighted person, otherwise, he wouldn't have been so depressed in his previous life.
But having a bunch of enemies won't make Tang Chuyang at a loss, whether it is Ling Yangze, who belongs to the Immortal Dynasty, or Mobai who belongs to the Ziwei Dynasty, these two countries are at least 108,000 miles away from the Tianwei Dynasty.
Even if they want Tang Chuyang's trouble, the distance between the two countries alone is quite a helpless barrier, besides, if they want to find Tang Chuyang, they have to find where the Tang family is first, right?
Tang Chuyang only thought about these worries a little, so he didn't think about it anymore, the top priority was to first take the position of the city lord, and then completely understand the situation in the entire Falling Moon City.
Moreover, Tang Chuyang became the city lord at least half a year ahead of schedule, which was a huge advantage for him far over the other four deputy city lords, if he could arrange it in advance. Not only can he completely secure the position of the city lord.
Maybe you can grab some shares from other deputy city lords, but the benefits are more and more for anyone.
"The treasury of the Castle Lord's Mansion is independent of the Castle Lord's Mansion. Because this involves the interests of the other four city lords, the treasury must be jointly managed, so even if you take over the position of city lord now, you only have the right to embezzle your share, and the rest will still be under my supervision!"
As she spoke, Dai Lisi pulled her bangs on her forehead, and her perfect figure dangled in front of Tang Chuyang like a ripe peach. After Mo Bai left, Dai Lisi and the other four began to hand over to Tang Chuyang as soon as possible.
The first one to be handed over is the treasury that Dai Lisi is in charge of, that is, the vault where the genuine currency 'Yuan Jing' is kept. On the Five Elements Continent, the currencies used by low-level monks and civilians were mainly gold and silver dollars, and occasionally supplemented by a small amount of yuan crystals for large transactions.
Monks of the intermediate rank and above. Or in a world of cultivation that is completely a monk. Basically, it has been changed to 'Yuanjing' as the main trading currency, and Yuanjing is divided into four grades: lower grade, middle grade, upper grade, and best grade, and the general decimal system.
As far as Tang Chuyang knew, for ordinary people, although they couldn't use Yuan Jing to cultivate. But it can also be used as a check, even if it is the lowest-grade Yuanjing. That's the equivalent of 10,000 gold dollars!
Delith is in charge of the treasury, that is, she has the financial power of the entire Falling Moon City, which should be an extremely oily position, but unfortunately the Elder Corps is too strict in this regard, and the previous city lord must have a clear handover with the Elder Corps when he leaves office.
There are some things in the treasury, and the records of the elder group in charge of reviewing them are exactly the same, and when Delis takes over this position, she must clearly record the income details of each day in Falling Moon City.
Before the new city lord took office, even if Delis wanted to use false accounts to damage the public and private interests, it depended on whether she could avoid the joint supervision of the other four deacons and elders.
In this case, not only did the government treasury have little oil and water to speak of, but it was an extremely cumbersome record work in the city.
So after the handover began, Delis grabbed Tang Chuyang as soon as possible, and no matter what Tang Chuyang thought, she directly handed over all the spiritual notes she had prepared a long time ago to the newly appointed city lord.
"At present, Tidal Mountain has been open for seven months and nine days, and the treasury has received a total of 42 high-grade Yuan Crystals, 1,156 Middle Grade Yuan Crystals, and 84,659 lower grade Yuan Crystals......
"That's it?"
Tang Chuyang interrupted Dai Lisi's statement with some surprise, although this was only his first time as a city lord, but judging from the previous inquiries from Falling Moon City and the news he got from Ling Yangze, the income in the eighteen cities inherent in Tide Mountain was very high.
Now that more than half a year has passed, there are only a few dozen high-grade yuan crystals received by the treasury, middle-grade yuan crystals in the early thousands, and more than 80,000 low-grade yuan crystals, but compared to the tens of thousands of monks in Falling Moon City, or even tens of thousands, it still looks a little pitiful.
The poll tax in Falling Moon City is calculated on a daily basis, even if there is one Yuan Crystal per person a day, there should not be only such a small amount of Yuan Crystal reserves in half a year!
"Of course, my lord of the city, Tidal Mountain is a special small world that is extremely short of elixirs that can restore the essence of the original god, and the yuan crystal is recognized as the equivalent currency on the continent that can perfectly convert the essence of the original god, and most monks are reluctant to use the yuan crystal to pay taxes......
Having said this, Dai Lisi gave Tang Chuyang a pretty white eye, she naturally knew why Tang Chuyang asked this, the first thing any city lord would do when he took office was to check the income and inventory of the treasury.
However, this place in Tidal Mountain is more special, Yuanjing, a crystallization directly condensed from the essence of the Yuanshen, most monks will keep it for their own use, after all, the source and method of income for all monks is to go out of the city to explore treasures and hunt demon beasts.
But whether it is to explore the treasure or find the demon beast to die, it is necessary to summon the guardian god, which is a very consuming activity of the essence of the primordial god, although there are many spiritual grasses and spiritual flowers in the tide mountain, but there are very few who can directly restore the essence of the primordial god.
In such a situation, ninety out of ten monks will naturally keep all the Yuan Crystals for their own use, and unless they are forced to do so, no one will definitely use the Yuan Crystals to pay taxes.
It is not the first time that Dai Lisi has served as an elder deacon, she is naturally very clear about the situation in Tidal Mountain, but it is also one of her main tasks to want the city lord to explain the details of the finances of Falling Moon City, and at the moment, under Tang Chuyang's incomprehensible gaze, Sakura lips slightly opened:
"Lord of the City, since the first day of the opening of Tidal Mountain, the treasury of each settlement has never been the bulk of the profits, and all the real good things are on the side of the treasure house. ”
"What ?...... like that?"
Tang Chuyang was stunned when he heard this, and then realized that indeed, Yuanjing, a currency that can be used as a primordial essence restorative, has no safe place once he leaves the city in Tidal Mountain, and it is indeed a necessary treasure hunt and monster cutting necessity for every monk.
Not to mention others, take Tang Chuyang himself, as a spirit painter, he is a big consumer of Yuan Shen essence, if he has Yuan Jing, he will definitely not be stupid enough to take it directly to pay taxes.
Anyway, Falling Moon City doesn't only accept Yuan Crystal, materials, demon beast essence blood, spirit ores and the like are also tax deductible.
"Hehe, but I think too much, Elder Delith said politely, the kid is the first time to serve as the city lord, and he can be said to be blind to all the affairs in the city, and I also ask Elder Delisi to give me advice and guidance......"
Asked a relatively ignorant and embarrassing question, Tang Chuyang couldn't help but blush, and nodded apologetically at Dai Lisi as he spoke, Dai Lisi was very calm, anyway, she didn't cheat on the treasury, and replied with a smile at the moment:
"Hehe, don't be so polite, the slave family has taken the benefits of the city lord, naturally it is necessary to know everything and say everything, as long as the city lord does not understand something, although he comes to the slave family, anyway, after the transfer of power and responsibility, He Changlao and the slave family will stay to supervise. ”
"That's good, uh...... After the transfer of authority and responsibility is completed, the deacons and elders will still stay in Falling Moon City to supervise?"
Tang Chuyang originally just nodded along with Dai Lisi's words, but when he heard the back, he suddenly reacted, and he didn't leave after handing over the power? Could it be that even if he, the city lord, took office, he still didn't have absolute control over Falling Moon City?
Dai Lisi didn't need to look at Tang Chuyang's expression to guess what he was thinking in his heart, as the supreme ruler of a city, in addition to caring about finances, absolute power was naturally something that every city lord would not let go.
Looking up and seeing the undisguised surprise on Tang Chuyangjun's face, Dai Lisi just smiled lightly and explained:
"City Lord rest assured, He Changlao and the slave family are only responsible for supervising the two places of the treasury and the treasure house, and although we have the right to supervise, as long as the city lord has not done anything to violate the ban, we will not interfere. ”
Tang Chuyang nodded with some understanding, in fact, he was thinking about this problem long before he came back, if the financial power of a city was completely controlled by the city lord, then what happened to the other four deputy city lords?
That would obviously be unfair to the other four deputy city lords, and now after hearing Dai Lisi's explanation, Tang Chuyang completely understood that the relationship He Busheng, and Dai Lisi's main task in Falling Moon City was to distribute benefits!
Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is more reasonable, the largest source of money in Falling Moon City, the treasury and the treasure treasury are independent, and they are supervised by two deacons and elders, even Tang Chuyang, the city lord, can only embezzle the share within the authority of the city lord.
Presumably, as long as Tang Chuyang's misappropriation of funds and materials exceeds a certain limit, it is equivalent to violating the ban of the elder group, and at that time, He Busheng and Dai Lisi, the two supervising elders, will intervene.
In a sense, the main responsibility of the two of them is to distribute and protect the interests of all parties from infringement.
"That's fair!"
Tang Chuyang nodded against his will, unable to fully control the financial power, which made him lose a bargaining chip to coerce his descendants, but it didn't matter, Tang Chuyang didn't expect this way to make people scruple. (To be continued......)
