Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

Text Chapter 211: Land Rising in Bustling Areas Makes My Heart Ache

The commercial tax has completely crushed the previous taxation method seven days ago. Sure enough, the First World War in Wancheng in the hinterland of the Central Plains completely destroyed the original commercial trading center centered on Wancheng and radiating from Nanyang. .

Speaking of it, Fenggao is not a good location as a commercial center, after all, it is too remote, but the current situation is that although Fenggao has no geographical advantages, it has taken advantage of the time and has people.

When the commercial center of Wancheng was covered by the flames of war and the sales of merchants all over the world were slow, the two major chambers of commerce with the Zhen family in the north and the Mi family in Xuzhou as the core settled in Fenggao. The eyes of most businessmen in the world.

Chen Xi looked at this scene indifferently. The tax rate change can be said to be a fixed trend. The gap in the crushing level can no longer be reversed by a few words. As for what will happen when there are fewer merchants in the world in chaos, Chen Xi will only hehe Smile, troubled times are the best time for businessmen to make money. I have never heard that there are fewer merchants in troubled times. It is said that only in peacetime can merchants be controlled. Businessmen in troubled times are more active. After all, there are so many loopholes in tax rates in troubled times!

"One more thing is missing." Chen Xi held up the wine cup and smiled at Guo Jia, then drank it down in one gulp, put down the wine cup and looked at Guo Jia.

"Is it Zangshu Pavilion?" Guo Jia casually picked up some side dishes on the table.

"Well, if you want to come to the household registration of Confucianism, you have already made a mess. The literati of this era can be regarded as the image that the people of the world hope for. The qualifications they possess are naturally what the people need. The alternative is top-down. " Chen Xi nodded and said. "Fenggao is not a good place. It's too remote. If it's in the Central Plains, the current tax can be increased by 20%."

Chen Xi's indifferent expression made Guo Jia a little embarrassed. After all, everyone including him was blocking Chen Xi's business law, and the changes in Fenggao City in just over 20 days were shocking.

"Zi Chuan, what happened before is indeed our problem, please forgive me." Guo Jia said solemnly.

"It doesn't have to be like this, we each have our own thoughts." Chen Xi waved his hands and said, "Neither you nor I are wrong. The one who is wrong is all Xuan Degong." A sly smile appeared on Chen Xi's face.

"It's okay for you to stay at home all the time!" Guo Jia could only smile wryly at Chen Xi's remarks, and only Chen Xi could be so unscrupulous.

"More than ten years ago, the front door was deserted. Now it's crowded, how many businessmen are waiting for me when you say I go out." Chen Xi said with a smile while pinching his wine glass, "I'll make a decision on the business law. Now, as long as I show a little bit of benefit Enough to fatten up a lot of people. Do you know what my butler has been up to lately?"

"That's not the reason why you don't go to the government affairs hall." Guo Jia said helplessly.

"I don't want to go." Chen Xi said casually. "Don't look for me until I finish handling this matter, unless something serious happens, just tell Zijing and Ziyang to do their own thing well, I'm too lazy to worry about the previous things."

Seeing Chen Xi pointing out the previous matter, Guo Jia reluctantly picked up the wine glass and drank it down. Who would have thought that Chen Xi could succeed so quickly, and he didn't want to be a peacemaker, but the people like Taishan and Chen Xi were most compatible with Guo Jia up. Neither of them are the type who care too much about etiquette and interests.

"Drinking your bar, I can't go to the brothel with you these two days. By the way, the newly opened Manxianglou is good, have you been there?" Chen Xi changed the subject, one that both he and Guo Jia like topic.

"Go, it's really good, don't need money, it's really great, and I gave me one of these, so I can spend money in the future, do you want it?" Guo Jia smiled cheaply, He took out a card made of real gold from his sleeve, and he didn't need to pay for this Guo Jia to go to Manxianglou.

"I have one too." Chen Xi took out one and shook it in front of Guo Jia and said, "But I won't be as top-quality as you. But after all, it's the main street! How about South First Street! The land is really cheap."

Chen Xi's words made Guo Jia very resentful. Who knew that things like land would rise to such a level. The businessmen who thought they were just here for a ticket found that Chen Xi was playing for real. Four and five streets are not divided enough, as long as a piece of land is finalized, it has to be said that businessmen backed by aristocratic families in this era are still very rich.

The land was sold for several million pennies, and after the sale, Lu Su felt that he had lost money. The loss was overwhelming. Lu Su, whose land on the second street in front had gone up, was jumping his eyes. As for the first street, which is the north-south main road, Now there are three restaurants, one is the restaurant of the Mi family, the other is the fur restaurant of the Zhen family, and the other is Manxianglou, all of which were opened before Chen Xi changed the business law.

Businessmen are not stupid, they all know that the North-South First Street must be the best land boundary, but Chen Xi has only marked four streets, and now they are all sold out, what else do you want? Challenge Chen Xi's rule that merchants can only trade in the designated North District? This is looking for death, okay? You can go to the residential area on North Sixth Street to buy land and renovate it. As for the two on North First Street, and the Manxiang Building on South First Street, you can drool. Those three are obvious. Is there a problem?

Not to mention the Zhen family and the Mi family, the Manxiang Building is so eye-catching, if there is no backstage, it would have been relocated, not to mention that it is the first street, and it is the only one on the South First Street. The Zhen family and the Mi family are on the North Street Squatting, there is a brothel in the middle of the opposite South Street, what is this for?

Can't find the other party's backer, and the other party is so eye-catching, it is obvious that there is a backer, so the people who occupy the only piece of land on South 1st Street have lost their thoughts, because of this, the business is booming in the recent brothel, and rich businessmen everywhere The high-ranking guests don't mind dealing with the owner of Manxianglou and making contact with each other, but it's a pity that Manxianglou doesn't have the owner they want.

"Ha, it's probably not easy for that old mother. I can't tell where the master is for a while." Guo Jia laughed. He has often been in Manxianglou for a while, so he naturally saw the embarrassment of the other party. It's only a hundred dollars for a cup of scented tea, and judging by the posture of fighting for money that day, no matter how embarrassing the other party will be, they will persist.

"Is there no one making trouble?" Chen Xi asked with a smile. The Manxiang Building was really eye-catching in that place, but it was also an accident. Although this accident was enough to make Lu Su's heart ache when he knew how much the land on the street was worth, he He didn't have the face to say that he would take it back.

"Do you think anyone would dare?" Guo Jia said with a hint of sarcasm on his face, "It's only the ignorant little guys who are so ignorant that they make trouble there, but now that there are rich merchants in there, they can be crushed to death with a finger, who would dare Go make trouble."

"But it's really a bit eye-catching." Chen Xi said helplessly. It's too eye-catching to open this thing on the main street. Forget about dancing, acting, acting, if you keep doing this, maybe Zijing will come to talk to me, then it will be bad.” (To be continued..)
