Su Junbao knew nothing about commerce, and it involved many other knowledges such as tax rates, commodities, transportation and circulation, negotiation skills, etc. He had never been interested in these things. He would throw them to others if he could learn them in a short time. For example, Li Lu was the main force here, and at most he would come to join in the fun and suppress the scene for Feng Languo.
Many kings and Su Junbao have similar attitudes. A problem that can be solved by sending envoys in previous years. As a king, why bother to be sad? They came here because they were summoned by the Central Empire and had no choice but to do so.
For example, the king of the Shangtang Kingdom sitting next to Fenglan Kingdom was constantly coughing, looking like he was suffering, and the beautiful woman next to him kept slapping him on the back!
"Young man, you are still so young, come to participate in the trade fair?" He coughed and said to Yan Guiyi from the air.
"You are so old, so you don't bother to work hard. Are you busy with your car?"
Yan Guiyi smiled and said that when he was a king, he was no longer shy when he first left his fiefdom and came to the royal city. He could still deal with some occasions!
"Old man, I'm older, no younger than you! You Fenglan Country has a promising future!" The old man answered gasping, and then coughed violently, looking like he was ready to die at any time, but he just couldn't stop the breath!
Look at the heirs next to him, they all look like middle-aged people. Only with contrast can they be hurt. The other party looked at Yan Guiyi, and his eyes showed envy, jealousy and hatred.
He had ascended the throne at a young age, and he didn't know how many years he would have to wait? But the old king would not abdicate. What would he do if he was all, unless he was an unfilial son who killed his father and usurped the throne.
They were chatting together.
Of course, not every monarch is as leisurely as them!
Shortly after the opening, someone stood up. Su Junbao knew this person, Wan Chengzhong, the king of the Nanmo Kingdom. His burly figure stood up from his seat.
"Mr. Li!"
He said, "Every year we have to pay one-third of our territory income to the Central Empire. This is already very heavy. But when we get our things to Taige City for sale, we have to deduct 30% of the tax rate. Even the trade terms we signed here and the transactions between countries have nothing to do with Taige City. The Central Empire has to withdraw 10% of the profits. Come and go, the tax rate of the same commodity is as high as 50% or 60%. Is this tax rate too heavy? Since the money we trade will eventually be handed over to the Central Empire, why do we have to pay it twice?"
This question can be asked, and the whole audience is quiet. This is probably the most troublesome thing for major vassal states. There are very few people who dare to raise it.
Su Junbao stopped what was going on and looked at it seriously.
Li Yi looked directly at the other party, his eyes calm and relaxed!
"The tax of the Central Empire is the tax of the Central Empire, and the tax of Taige City is the tax of Taige City. The two cannot be confused. If anyone here doesn't want to trade in Taige City, he can go to another place to trade. We will never force it. Is there any problem?" he asked.
"snort!"
Wancheng snorted coldly: "Trade to another place? Why do we have to trade in other places? Taige City has been a concentrated trade place in the Mangyuan of the Northern Region since ancient times. Before the Central Empire, it is! It exists here. It is our ancestors who have established it for generations. If you come here, set rules and ask us to pay money. Moreover, even if we go to another place to trade, you can guarantee that you will not think about the law to add other taxes?"
The whole hall was so quiet that he was the only one talking. Su Junbao had never felt such a heartbeat, let alone heard a person's voice so powerful!
Everyone knew what he meant when he said this. His expressions were different on his face. Some were worried and indignant, some were playful, and even gloated. For example, Shangguan Feihong, the monarch of the largest country, looked coldly and did not make any statement.
As Wan Chengzhong's loud questioning was made, Li Yi's Chaoran's attitude gradually became cold. There were always a few thorns among these people!
"It seems that the monarch of Nanmo Kingdom is not very satisfied with the taxes of the Central Empire. Since that is the case, you can give advice to Tianqi City. Maybe they will listen. I am only responsible for Taige City. I will say again that for all goods traded in Taige City, the tax that should be paid must be paid. No copper coins are missing. This is the rule!"
"Hahaha!"
When Wan Chengzhong heard this, he laughed at the sky and lowered his head: "So, the invitation letter of our invitation to the Central Empire is all fake? So, all the words you just said are farts. Apart from getting money, they can't solve anything at all? Then, we can just hold this trade fair ourselves. What do you want to do here?"
"Wanchengzhong, if you talk nonsense, do you know what this means? Don't blame me for not reminding you that you have been a monarch for many years and shouldn't be so stupid, right?" Li Yi completely changed his face.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely stiff, and both sides looked at each other, and no one was willing to give in.
At this moment, the sound of applause sounded in the hall. People followed the sound and found a young man and woman who appeared at the door of the hall at some point. The man was applauding. He was watching the scene in the hall with the eyes of the show, while the woman was cold and indifferent!
"Okay, very good, Lord Li, it seems that you are still too kind to control these untouchables!"
The young man said, "He called the people here abdications, and the rulers of the Northern Territory Mangyuan were here, but no one refuted them!"
This is a rare pair of handsome men and beautiful women, and their clothes are different from those in the Northern Region Mangyuan!
The two looked only in their twenties, wearing exquisite armor, the woman had long hair shawls, tall and plump figure, and a willow branch, especially her legs exposed under the hem of the skirt, which were snow-white and toned!
Her hair is rare purple, with a cool temperament, wearing light golden armor, like a Valkyrie walking out of the painting. Her eyes are surprisingly cold, and no matter which direction she looks, she feels like she is looking down at everything.
Condescending!
Compared with his appearance, Su Junbao cared more about the abnormalities revealed by the other party!
These two are undoubtedly powerful martial arts. Su Junbao himself is a warrior. After cultivating true qi, he can sense the same true qi flow in other warriors, but in these two people, he felt another kind of aura fluctuation, countless times stronger than true qi!
This is not a problem of missing a few levels, but a problem of missing a dimension! Su Junbao has only felt this feeling in one person, that is, the deceased old man Qingxiao, but these two people are still so young!
"These two are both martial arts semi-saints!" Meng Tiande said with a solemn expression as much as possible!
