Wang Lishi smiled.

Can there be pigeons in this?

You always pointed out that the pigeons are delicious in the edict to His Royal Highness King Yan.

His Royal Highness King Yan, as long as his head is not confused, then he will not release pigeons.

But he didn't dare to say this when he killed Wang Lishi.

But when I think about pigeons.

Wang Lishi hurriedly took out a book of folds from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Chongyuan: "Your Majesty, this is a fold sent by His Royal Highness King Yan to rush to you for 800 miles." ”

"What did you say?"

Zhao Chongyuan didn't even look at it, continued to turn around and sit on the dragon couch, grabbed the melon seeds on the table and looked at Wang Lishi with interest.

However, listening to the words "eight hundred miles expedited", Zhao Chongyuan was still quite comfortable in his heart.

clicked on Zhao Ding, Zhao Ding still knew the measure after all.

Wang Lishi cleared his throat, looked at Zhao Chongyuan, who was stilted on Erlang's legs, and replied: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yan said in the fold that he was blinded by lard and was poor and afraid, so he had the audacity to collude with Sun Bing to conceal the tax, and now he took the initiative to ask His Majesty to exempt him from one year's salary, and to ensure that the taxes in Youzhou will be paid truthfully in the future." ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhao Chongyuan suddenly smiled: "This kid still has a little conscience, and he also knows how to pay taxes truthfully, and he took the initiative to resign and be exempted from a year's salary, yes, he is worthy of being the son of Lao Tzu." ”

Zhao Chongyuan smacked his lips.

But when I think about it, I feel that something is wrong.

Hiss!

Zhao Chongyuan suddenly gasped and snatched the fold in Wang Lishi's hand.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Lishi's face was clouded.

But Zhao Chongyuan still opened the fold handed over by Zhao Ding and looked at it carefully.

Smack.

Zhao Chongyuan threw it out directly, stuck his waist, walked around the room, and scolded: "I said why is this kid so interesting, he has been playing with his heart for a long time, right?"

Good boy, you have a kind! ”

Zhao Chongyuan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"

Wang Lishi's face was forced.

Zhao Chongyuan glanced at Wang Lishi, gritted his teeth and asked, "What is the most profitable thing in Youzhou?" ”

"That's naturally the Zhao family firm of His Royal Highness King Yan."

Wang Lishi subconsciously replied.

The speed at which Zhao's firm made money was seen with their own eyes.

took 170,000 taels of silver to Youzhou, but the Zhao family business bank didn't arrive for half a day, and they left with a few farts left.

The key is to buy less than a wagon.

As for the cost, it is less than 1,000 taels of silver.

The profit is simply outrageous.

Especially recently, he distributed the things he brought back from Youzhou according to what Zhao Chongyuan said.

After half a month, Zhao Chongyuan's inner treasury had hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in his account.

Not only did they earn back the money they spent from Youzhou, but they also made a lot more.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Chongyuan made up his mind to take action against those few big families who were far away on the frontier.

"Then where does the main tax collected by our big cadres come from?"

Zhao Chongyuan asked again with a snort.

"Nong..... Not....... Hahahaha. ”

Wang Lishi was halfway through speaking, and suddenly covered his mouth and smiled.

"Get out, you old thing, you know how to laugh at your master and me."

Zhao Chongyuan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and glared at Wang Lishi viciously.

The main thing collected by the big cadres is the agricultural tax, and all households with equal land, regardless of the amount of land granted by their families, pay the average tax according to the per capita amount and serve a certain amount of forced labor.

But what is Youzhou's main source of income?

It's business!

It is the income of Zhao's firm!

It is the income of the merchants.

But the problem is that he Zhao Chongyuan can't collect this tax!

The big cadres have always mainly collected agricultural taxes, and although some commercial taxes have also been collected, they have always been mainly suppressed.

After all, if they all go into business, they all go to speculation.

not engaged in farming,

What do so many people eat?

How to maintain the big Qian?

Therefore, the status of Shinong businessmen has always been the lowest, and they cannot wear brocade clothes, and their descendants cannot gain fame.

But Zhao Ding didn't have to think about this.

Because Youzhou is just a state, even if the people are all engaged in business, the silver earned is enough to feed the people of Youzhou.

But the problem is the tax on the income of these traders.

He, Zhao Chongyuan, couldn't accept it.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Chongyuan felt pain in his heart.

The melon seeds that were originally eating vigorously were not fragrant for a moment.

"Your Majesty...."

Wang Lishi hurriedly shouted with concern.

"It's okay, let me slow down."

Zhao Chongyuan waved his hand, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt pain in his heart.

looked at Zhao Chongyuan's angry appearance of blowing his beard and glaring.

Wang Lishi covered his mouth on the side, wanting to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

After a while, it seemed that he couldn't think of a way to deal with Zhao Ding after all.

Zhao Chongyuan could only sit on the dragon couch with a snort, and scolded and said, "Okay, you have a kind of kid!" ”

At the same time, Youzhou.

Inside the Yanwang Mansion.

Zhao Ding suddenly sneezed, rubbed his somewhat reddened nose, and scolded: "Which old bastard is calculating this prince?" ”

Turn over and go back to sleep.

What Zhao Ding scolded, Zhao Chongyuan naturally didn't know.

After a while, he waved his hand at Wang Lishi reluctantly: "Go down, go down." ”

"Yes."

Wang Lishi nodded and agreed, and then arched his hands and walked outside, but he didn't take two steps and suddenly paused, looked at Zhao Chongyuan and asked again: "Your Majesty, what about the fiefs of those families in the fiefdoms of King Qin and His Royal Highness King Zhao, and they are quite close to King Qin and His Royal Highness King Zhao, now do you want to inform them from their side?" ”

"Not necessarily."

When he heard King Qin and King Zhao, a hint of gloom flashed in Zhao Chongyuan's eyes, "Do it directly, if they dare to stop it, or secretly report the news, I will treat it as if I don't have their two sons!" ”

Speaking of this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Zhao Chongyuan's eyes.

The big dry has been accumulating disadvantages for a long time.

Overkill must be overdone, otherwise it will be difficult to stand up.

Especially now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Not to be missed.

It's him Zhao Chongyuan who can't bear these two sons in his heart, but he has to do it for the sake of the overall situation!

"Yes!"

Wang Lishi's body trembled.

Quickly bowed down and walked outside.

Watching Wang Lishi walk outside, Zhao Chongyuan sighed again.

I just hope that his two sons don't make a fool of themselves in this matter.

With Zhao Chongyuan's order, go down.

Within the territory of Daqian.

The land of the twenty-eight prefectures of Kyushu suddenly set off a bloody storm.

One by one, they have stood on the land of Daqian for hundreds of years, and they are thousands of years old.

The bloody rain in the palatial mansion.

Countless heads fell to the ground.

All family property was confiscated and returned to the State treasury.

For a while, it made people panic.

Countless princes and nobles were frightened.

Everyone understood.

This time, this always good-natured Majesty of theirs is coming for real!
