"You...you..." Fan Boyu's face almost twisted with anger: "Come here! Pull Mao Yi down! A small businessman actually...slandered me, the Xin family!"
But no Chinese took action.
Xin walked out again and stood in front of Mao Yi.
"Master Zai, don't be angry..." Xin pretended to be a good man again: "Maybe Mao Yi remembered it wrong, or maybe you remembered it wrong. In my opinion, it's better to take out the book and deed.
We can tell at a glance... I believe that Master Zai will not do such a thing to deceive the people of the country, otherwise what would he be doing? Master Situ, right?"
Situ didn't say anything, and Situ was very angry.
How could he not know these things?
But after doing it a lot, I feel that this is a normal thing. Who would have thought that Xin would talk about such a thing again.
It’s just a small amount of money taken from the profits from the black bear skin, what’s the big deal!
Isn’t this kind of thing done all the time?
"The deed... the deed has been eaten by mice a long time ago!" Fan Boyu said harshly.
There is no other way. If the deed is really brought, wouldn't it confirm what he did?
At this point, we can only deny it.
Mao Yi was anxious: "What I said is absolutely true! You can go to Ganlu..."
"Mao Yi!" Xin's face darkened again: "What if you remember it wrong?!"
"This..." Mao Yi was very aggrieved and muttered in his heart, weren't you the one who asked me to reveal this matter?
"Brother Xin Wang, I don't think I can explain this matter clearly for a while." Xin said again: "The letter and deed have been destroyed, and we can't listen to Mao Yi's words, right?"
Xin Wang was speechless, what was going on.
It would be okay if he didn't say it, after all, he could still afford the prices.
But once he said it, he always felt that he was missing some money.
That money can buy a lot of wine.
"But Brother Xinwang, you worked so hard to skin the bear skin, so naturally you want to sell it at a good price. Now that you may have lost a few bucks, you are naturally unhappy, right?"
"Yes...a little bit." Xin Wang said.
"In the final analysis, this matter is still my problem as a doctor in the city." Xin showed an extremely self-blaming look: "If those letters and deeds had been properly placed, it wouldn't be like this."
Xin's words left Fan and his son at a loss as to what to do.
Doctor in this city, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
"In my opinion, I will make up for Xin Wang's ten coins myself." After saying that, Xin took out another ten coins and gave them to Xin Wang: "Master Situ, do you think this matter can be handled this way?
"
"It's a little trick to win people's hearts."
Situ Fanmi was silent, feeling quite disdainful.
This kind of trick is still a bit immature.
"Since all gentlemen are like this, we, the Fan family, will also make up for the nine qian owed to the government. It's just a small amount of money."
Fan Mi took out nine coins and asked Fan Boyu to give them to Xin You.
Xin said again: "That's very good."
Then he took out ten coins and gave it to Xin Wang.
"It can't be done, it can't be done," Xin Wang said quickly, holding Xin You's hand tightly with both hands.
"Hey~ take it! This is the compensation from Yili to you." Xin You said with a smile on his face.
"What... is this good?" Xin Wang had a smile of rejection on his face and stuffed his head into his waistband.
"Buy people's hearts..." Fan Mi and Yin Rong thought at the same time.
They believed that Xin You wanted to use such small gifts to win over the hearts and minds of the people.
If this is the only method, they don't have to be afraid at all.
Xin Wang took the money and left, and kept sighing: "A gentleman is indeed a descendant of the eldest son, and he is fair in dealing with things."
"I don't know if I was compensated for the antlers my family sold last year..."
Someone next to me said.
"What are you thinking! The price of antlers remains the same every year. Besides, aren't you literate? You have also read the deed." Another person said: "It's my corn..."
"You guys, that's enough!"
Hearing the discussions among the people in the country, Fan Mi couldn't help but said angrily: "Do you really think that our Fan family is interested in your small money? If you think that our Fan family is unfair, then go out and sell the goods yourself!"
"This is a good idea!"
Xin You suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Thanks to Master Situ! This method is really great!"
"What can I do?" Fan Mi has not yet reacted.
"Didn't Situ say that if you think it's unfair for Fan to sell goods for the people, you can sell them yourself?" Xin said again: "I think if this is the case, things like what just happened will be much less common."
"Gentleman... this is not a joke. I just said it out of anger." Fan Mi's face darkened: "According to Zhou rites, only merchants can sell goods. If everyone brings their own goods to the market,
If you sell online, don’t you all become businessmen?”
"That's true..."
Xin again looked like he was deep in thought.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, each of the four peoples performed their duties.
This is stipulated by Zhou Li.
Even the place where they live is divided into areas.
There can't be any overstep.
Of course Xin You knew these truths, and it was impossible for him to let everyone in Xinyi go into business.
That's not realistic either.
"By the way, Mao Yi, has this kind of thing happened to your merchant before? How was it resolved?" Xin asked again.
"Uh... How could merchants do such a thing? Merchants buy grain first and then sell it in various places. However, Yi Zhong collects the goods, sells them, and then divides the accounts when they come back." Mao said.
"That's it!"
Xin pretended to be suddenly enlightened again.
"In that case, as long as we give Xin Wang the money for the bear skin first and then sell it, doesn't the rest of the money belong to Xin Yi?" Xin said again.
"Indeed." Mao Yi replied.
The Chinese people also understand this truth, but they just need to change the way of selling and sell all their own goods to the public.
"But..." Xin You thought again: "What if someone is greedy for the money gained from Mo Yi?"
As he said that, he glanced at Fan Boyu.
"Absolutely not!" Fan Boyu said: "I don't have it anyway!"
"But in order to prevent this from happening, I have a suggestion." Xin added: "Why don't we leave all goods to merchants for sale in the future!"
"What?" Fan Mi and Yin Rong shouted at the same time: "No!"
After so many years of operation, they have long considered the "road money" from pumping water as their own family's income. How can they give this privilege to those small merchants?
"Livestock, furs and wine are important things to us in Xinyi, how can they be sold to merchants! They must be sold uniformly in Xinyi!" Fan Mi said.
"It's okay if they are sold together. Then I will be responsible for keeping the deeds that are sold out in the future, and read them out in front of the people. To avoid misunderstandings..." Xin added: "Or, let's check again.
Check the existing written deeds to see if there are any flaws, and you must not let the people of the country suffer!"
Xin You's words resonated with the Chinese people.
Over the years, although they had suspected Fan Boyu, they had no chance to confront him.
Doctor Yi said this today, which is an excellent opportunity.
"Absolutely not!" Yin Rong pulled Fan Mi.
Neither of them can withstand the investigation!
"But if this is the case, where does Xinyi's income come from?" Fan Mi tried to make a final struggle.
Xin added: "Simple! Merchants can freely purchase and sell any goods, but they must also pay taxes to the city."
"That's great!" Mao Yiji said excitedly: "I have long heard that in some cities, merchants can sell a variety of goods and only need to pay taxes."
"Yes, but not all things can be managed." Xin added: "For example, salt and wine must be managed by the town."
Just kidding, salt is a real hard currency in this day and age.
Not to mention wine, which is Xinyi’s future industry.
Everything is handed over to businessmen, and Xinyi will soon become a world dominated by businessmen.
"I will discuss with each merchant later on what merchants can do. However, it is better not to sell goods on behalf of others. Situ, Sima, and Uncle Zong, what do you think?" Xin asked again.
The three of them bowed their heads.
What else can I say? You can’t audit the accounts in the middle of it!
The people of the country had already seen through everything, and naturally they all agreed with Xin You's new method. This chapter has been completed!
