Generally, the host of a banquet rarely leaves early. Considering etiquette issues, the host has to send the guests off.
This time, Tang Yue and Zangxian encountered a situation where the host left the guests behind and left first. She had expected it and continued to eat and drink in the spirit of not wasting.
"I didn't expect the merchants in Kunwu City to be so disrespectful to the managers." Zangxian looked unhappy. No one in Xiandu dared to treat managers like this like the Shang family. The people in Xiandu were all respectful and fearful of being embarrassed.
Tang Yue sighed: "They just don't respect me, they still respect the city lord."
"You are not an ordinary city lord lady, but a candidate for heir. How dare they do this?"
"Maybe it's because I haven't become the young master of Kunwu City yet."
Zangxian looked at Tang Yue who was carefully picking out fish bones and said, "If you want to be the Young City Lord, I will definitely help you."
Tang Yue raised his head and looked at the Young City Master with expectant eyes: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. After all, this is your goal."
Tang Yue gave the fish clip she picked with chopsticks to Zangxian and said with a smile: "Thank you so much, Young Master Zang. When I become Young Master in the future, I will definitely promote more exchanges and cooperation between Kunwu City and Xiandu. At that time, it was still
Please take good care of me, young master.
In the early morning of the next day, Tang Yue arrived as promised, "I took leave from Qionghua Pavilion today specifically to discuss tax changes with my senior brother."
It's no wonder that not only did she not agree to give up the tax reform and cut the blood of the big family, but she also ate it at the banquet for a long time. No wonder the head of the family was angry and asked the butler to see her off.
Zangxian felt that as long as he could talk to Tang Yue for a while, he could sit anywhere, including eating at the Qian Mansion, and the Qian family would not dare to neglect them.
"Not yet, do you have any recommendations?" Zangxian looked at her with expectation.
He still has many ways to deal with people in the Immortal City who refuse to pay taxes.
"If you don't mind, senior brother, I will prepare a private room for you in the City Lord's Mansion. You won't have to look for an inn anymore, and the conditions will be better."
Tang Yue was indifferent. For her, this trip had achieved her goal. If Qian Mansion became famous through her flowers, then he, as a flower grower, would be even more famous.
"Then you go back and rest, I'm not in a hurry."
If there was a wing in the water house, Tang Yue led the people back to the east courtyard directly, "I also live in this courtyard. If you need anything, you can call me."
After the two left the house, Tang Yue asked politely, "Has Senior Brother Zang found a place to live in Kunwu City?"
If she wants to be the city lord in the future, she will be unable to avoid the struggle for fame and fortune. It is better to join the fight for fame and fortune early and learn some experience.
She was about to leave when Zangxian stopped her and said, "I have one more thing to tell you."
When he first arrived in Kunwu City, his servants asked him if he wanted to book a room where he could rest at night. He refused and asked him to stay in the city lord's mansion.
The servant who was responsible for clearing the table gave him strange looks several times. One of these two people was the young master of Xiandu and the other was the lady of the city lord's palace. They actually participated in other people's banquets. However, the steward had told them not to offend these two people.
They had no choice but to stand by and watch.
Who makes Palace Master Qian insist on inviting them? If he doesn't eat more, how can he live up to the Qian family's kindness? Besides, the spirit flowers on the table are full of spiritual energy, and the meals made are delicious and have a faint floral fragrance, which is really good.
"That's right. First of all, these businesses can afford the money. Secondly, many shops are afraid of trouble and often ask city guards to help take care of them. It's reasonable to ask them to pay."
"That's natural."
In fact, this is just an excuse for him to come to Kunwu City. He still wants to see Tang Yue. No matter how old she is now, it would be nice to see her.
Zangxian took over her tax reform plan and read it carefully. After a while, he sincerely praised: "This plan is good. It is divided into short-term, medium-term and long-term goals. Your short-term goal is jewelry, high-end
Magical weapons, these trades?"
"That's really great. I don't have to bother you anymore to find a place to stay."
"Okay, junior sister, thank you for your trouble." Zangxian looked at this wing room. The ornaments and decorations were all quite satisfactory, with nothing fancy. Fortunately, the materials were good, so he could endure it.
When he came to Qian Mansion, it was Mrs. Qian, her daughter and other ladies who greeted him. When he came out at night, only the housekeeper was left to see Tang Yue off.
Tang Yue nodded, "That makes sense."
City-states often imitate each other's governance policies, and sometimes everyone will follow suit and jointly implement a policy. After Kunwu City changed the tax law, people in Xiandu can no longer use Kunwu City as a basis to oppose the expansion of tax types.
"Is there anything wrong with Kunwu City's tax laws?"
"You have chosen a good industry. By asking these shops to pay taxes, you will not only know whether their business is legal and whether there are any contraband, but you will also have the opportunity to check their account books. This is very valuable information."
"There is no problem in Kunwu City. However, Xiandu has recently changed its tax laws and increased the types of taxes. There is resistance in the city just like Kunwu. The big families don't agree. So I want to help you change the tax laws and spread the law.
The necessity and benefits of taxation, in this way, will not only help Kunwu City to reform taxes, but also help Xiandu to gain some advantage in public opinion by reforming taxes."
"Okay, senior brother, you practice first. I will go back and sort out the difficulties and solutions in promoting the new tax law and then discuss it with you tomorrow."
Seeing that President Qian had left, the heads of the family at the table didn't want to stay any longer, so they found an excuse to leave soon after, leaving only the two of them, chatting and eating, very happy, as if this was not someone else's house.
.
Tang Yue was a little scared. What did he want to say seriously? Could it be that he wanted her to be responsible for the secret realm?
"My coming to Kunwu is mainly related to the tax law reform that Kunwu City is going to carry out." In fact, he could have found someone else for this matter, but he had a preference in his heart, so he came to Kunwu City.
The two of them also called their servants, and when they were asked to let them, they were actually given to them to eat together. After the banquet was taken down, they were also given to the servants in the mansion, and it was no longer fresh. It was also good to benefit the people they brought.
Well.
"Then I won't disturb senior brother. I'll entertain you tomorrow. If I'm busy, I can ask someone else to come."
Although fame brings many constraints, it also brings many benefits. It just depends on whether the famous person can afford it.
Sure enough, it was the young master of Xiandu who was shrewd and capable. He saw through her intention at once, "Yes, the biggest problem I face now is that my father refuses to cover my tax reform law. The law formulated in this way
It will be ineffective and no one will listen to my words."
"We hired a few people to discuss tax reform in the city, explained clearly the purpose of the tax law and the benefits it can bring to people, and then sent people to lead the way and get people to support the reform."
Most people definitely support the tax, because they have no money to consume in the first place, and it has nothing to do with them whether others buy things. If the head tax can be waived, it will greatly reduce the burden for them.
A small number of hidden families produce and sell their own products and do not need to purchase additional products, so Tang Yue did not consider their affairs.
