Chapter 439: Tax Reform Completed
To tell the truth, Yu Qi really can't kill all the people of the Zhu family, if he kills all the people of the Zhu family, in the end, the money will definitely not reach his hands, and it will definitely be cheaper for the rest of the gate valve families.
Yu Qi is not stupid, he must choose to maximize benefits.
What did he put his mind to do to make such a big fuss? Not for money.
Raising hundreds of millions of troops on the nine sides is not a small amount, and it is not something that Yu Qi can solve with a little bit of money.
If you want to solve the big problem of food and salary in the nine sides, you have to rely on the world's powerful people.
Why did the imperial court pay less and less taxes every year?
Now you can't even afford to raise the army of the Nine Sides?
It's not because the hands of the powerful are getting bigger and bigger, and all the profitable businesses in the world are in the hands of the powerful.
Looking at the locusts in the ravine, as well as the pleasing locust god, Yu Qi pondered for a while, and then said: "Recently, there are often demon god remnants born to restrain your demon god, can you be among them?"
Hearing this, the locust god scratched his head: "Back to the Lord, the gods of the Great Wilderness, the subordinates are the weakest category. The gods and beasts that can restrain their subordinates are no more or less, and there are dozens of them. ”
"It's okay, it's always a remnant soul, if they can rest assured and cultivate to recover their vitality, it's okay, if they take the initiative to come out and jump, they are looking for death!" Yu Qi's face was cold: "Come on, please come to the back mountain and see the scenery in the back mountain." ”
Yu Qi's voice was full of strangeness, and he didn't know how the ministers would react in the face of the overwhelming locust disaster.
Eight hundred princes, will they surrender.
The main hall of Chongyang Palace
At this time, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military stood in the main hall and whispered, and suddenly an eighteen or nineteen-year-old Taoist boy walked from outside the door with a cautious face, broke into the main hall and saluted respectfully to the ministers: "Ministers, please go to the back mountain." ”
Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, and I don't say anything. It's all here, and it's already come to Chongyang Palace, and it's not too many steps.
What's more, everyone has heard about the affairs of the Zhu family, and there must be a charter after all.
Although Yu Qi subdued the Zhu family, the major families in the world would never give in so easily, Yu Qi wanted to implement the change, and he had to come up with a convincing means to convince everyone.
Everyone walked along the mountain road, the mountain scenery was ancient and evergreen, and there was a mist rising in the mountains, which was a good place for a blessed land.
When he came closer, he saw Yu Qiyi dressed in white, holding a folding fan in his hand, looking down at the ministers who came from the bottom of the mountain.
"Archmage, you got us here, but what do you say?" Huang Feihu looked at Yu Qi with an unkind face.
Glancing at Huang Feihu, Yu Qi just said, "Interesting! Interesting!"
Then he looked at the expressionless ministers: "The former Japanese seat made a move and subdued a god, and that god is now suppressed on the back cliff of my Taoist temple, if you are interested, you may as well come and take a look." ”
After listening to Yu Qi's words, all the ministers were moved in their hearts, knowing that this was Yu Qi's hole card.
It's just that I don't know what hole card it is, but Yu Qi is so confident that he can make the major families surrender.
Wen Taishi took the lead, stepped forward quickly, stood side by side with Yu Qi, and then looked at the overwhelming locusts in front of him, as well as the purple locust god standing in the center, his face couldn't help but change, and he blurted out in surprise:
"Locust God!"
"What?locust god?" The ancestors of the major families were also excited in their hearts at this time, and they all stepped forward one after another, lowered their heads and looked at the secluded canyon, with a look of solemnity and horror in their eyes. Huang Feihu, in particular, glared at Yu Qi angrily: "Yu Qi, you are simply excessive! Did you cause the locust plague of my Huang family? You presided over the locust plague back then?"
"King Wucheng must not wronged a good person, I just suppressed this locust god, and I also suffered a locust plague in Nanshan back then, how could it be that I commanded it?" Yu Qiyi's rhetorical justification.
"You fart! Are you really blind? You released locusts at that time, one was to clear your suspicions, and the other was to use locusts to complete the land reclamation. At that time, we may not have reacted, but when the locust plague disappeared, we could all see it clearly, all the locusts just ate the wasteland of your Zhongnan Mountain, and they didn't even gnaw on a single grass or tree on the main peak of your Zhongnan Mountain!" Huang Feihu pointed at Yu Qi's nose and scolded angrily.
He'd seen shameless, but it was the first time he'd seen something like this.
"Nonsense, at that time, it was clear that I protected the realm of Chongyang Palace with great mana and great supernatural powers, so that the locusts did not have the opportunity to wreak havoc on my Zhongnan Mountain realm. Yu Qi looked at Huang Feihu, he couldn't imagine that this kid was so clever, and the good play he directed and acted in at that time was actually exposed.
"Although you are the martial king of Zhenguo, if you talk nonsense to confuse the public and bewitch the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, you can blame me for being polite!" Yu Qi's eyes showed a gleam, and he looked at Huang Feihu with burning eyes. If the other party dares to continue to entangle, he must not use thunderous means.
He is here today to deter the powerful in the world, but he doesn't have time to stir up with Huang Feihu.
Sure enough, Huang Feihu's face became gloomy, staring at Yu Qi and keeping his mouth shut.
Everyone is a smart person, if there is anything, just point it thoroughly, and there is no need to continue to entangle. The major nobles will naturally give this account to Yu Qiji.
Looking at the locust god in the valley and the overwhelming locusts, everyone in the field was pale, and their hearts gradually sank to the bottom of the valley.
Everyone knows that there is a big trouble!
Did you see the locusts?
This is a blatant threat.
I asked you to surrender or not?
Just ask if you're afraid?
"Everyone, don't pay attention to the matter of the locust god, let's continue to talk about taxes, I want to levy three percent of the total income of the major families to pay taxes every year, what do you think?" Yu Qi looked at the ministers with a smile.
Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, all of them are on fire in their hearts, and they can't wait to kick Yu Qi into the cliff and fall to death.
When these words fell, there was silence in the field, and everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they had no idea for a while.
That's locusts!
Locusts that specialize in eating grain.
Once the locust plague rolls up, what kind of terrifying scene it will be will have is simply unimaginable.
In the face of such natural disasters, although there is a divine passage method, it is difficult to reverse the four seasons of the heavens.
"There's no need to discuss it anymore, I'll wait for this matter to agree!" Dong Bohou stood up with a gloomy face, staring at the locust with a pair of eyes, then turned around and glanced at Yu Qi, and turned to leave without looking back.
As one of the four princes in the world, since he opened his mouth, this matter was naturally done.
"Hahaha, those who know the times are Junjie, and you are all outstanding people of the moment, so you should think about it. Break the wealth and avoid disasters, don't you understand such a simple truth?" Huang Feihu said with bad intentions at this time: "My Wucheng Wangfu has agreed, and tomorrow Sancheng will benefit and will definitely be sent to the treasury."
In the face of an overwhelming array of locusts, who can not agree?
Don't you agree to wait for the fate of Bu Huang Feihu and Dong Bohou?
Besides, how can outsiders know how much their family income is?
Of course, Yu Qi knows the trickiness in it, but he doesn't force it, this kind of thing still needs to be cycled gradually, trampling on everyone's bottom line step by step.
Today, everyone agreed to taxes, and after a few days, when everyone got used to it, they were gaining an inch, encroaching on interests step by step, and forcing the ministers into a corner.
Yu Qi had a smile in his eyes, looking at the back of the ministers who turned to leave, and smiled very proudly.
This thing is done!
Indeed, it was done!
"You kid!" Fu Tianqiu glanced at Yu Qi, shook his head, and then hurriedly walked down the mountain.
Until now, even Fu Tianqiu didn't dare to be with Yu Qi.
Change the law, and this is done.
"Okay, put away the supernatural powers, so that you can cultivate in Chongyang Palace" Yu Qi ordered.
He suddenly found that although the locust god was a little less powerful, in some ways, it was really useful.
Day 2
The sky has just cleared
In front of the palace gate of the imperial court, there is an endless arrangement of carriages and horses, and there is no end in sight.
At this time, the palace is crowded with people, and it is as lively as a vegetable market.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I've been waiting here for a long time!" Yu Qi appeared at the head of the city, looking at the piles of materials under the city gate, and his eyes were smiling like 'money'.
Yu Qi was smiling, and his smile was full of pride.
He knew that the major families must be short of two catties, saying that they were thirty percent of the materials, and at most one percent would be sent.
But this material is definitely a massive astronomical amount, which is more than enough to feed the nine-sided army.
Everyone is not stupid, they all come according to the measurement. It was calculated that Yu Qi would be able to feed the nine-sided army.
If the materials offered by everyone can't feed the nine-sided army, it's no wonder that Yu Qi can give up.
The ministers had black faces and ignored him, but just commanded their own servants, registered the supplies, and then entered the palace to start handling government affairs.
Just when Yu Qi was in high spirits, the people of Daguang Dao came to Shangjing City again.
"Stinky boy, it's not good! Something is wrong!"
Yu Qi raised his eyebrows, locked on Daguang, and showed a puzzled look.
The people of Daguang Dao waved their hands again and again, signaling Yu Qi to go.
Yu Qi explained to the guards, and then turned into a breeze, and when he reappeared, he had already appeared outside the door with the Daguang Dao people.
"What's going on?" Yu Qi looked at Da Guang in surprise, he had never seen such an eager look from Da Guang Dao people.
"What big deal can be?" Yu Qi was puzzled.
"The demon clan is going to establish a country, is it a big deal?" said the people of Daguang Dao with anxious faces.
"How long has it been since Emperor Liulu, and the demon clan has established a country at this time? Old Taoist, don't be joking. "Yu Qi is not good.
The demon clan worked hard to make the emperor slurry, and did not wait for the heyday of qi to establish a country, unless it was the head watt.
But looking at the look of the Daguang Dao people, it doesn't seem to be a fake.
PS: I'm considering whether to add more.
