Experienced and adventurous people felt very disappointed when they heard that medicine would only be sold tomorrow, but they were reluctant to leave after queuing for such a long time, and instead turned to look at other products in the store.
I saw that other products were also discounted, so I bought a lot of them whether I needed them or not.
The store's income for the whole day was pretty good. Not only was the owner Mu Qianyu satisfied, but the merchants who supplied the goods also felt that they could continue to cooperate.
That night, Mu Qianyu personally had dinner with these partners. During the dinner, he was very enthusiastic and invited these merchants to open branches in Anping Prefecture.
"The government will issue a new tax decree tomorrow. All merchants will only charge half of the tax on profits. You can consider it." Mu Qianyu said with a smile.
These businessmen listened indifferently at first, but when they heard about the tax, they were really tempted. After all, Tong County collected a full 30%.
There are actually quite a lot of people moving around Anping Mansion. Everyone who comes from the Daxuan Dynasty to experience the Mysterious Beast Forest must pass through here. However, this area is often attacked by beast tides and the shops are often washed away, so they were moved to Tong County.
But if taxes are low, they can actually consider taking a little risk.
"In addition, the government will insure the shops. Once the shops are hit by the beast tide, all losses will be borne by the government." Mu Qianyu broke the news.
These people obviously moved their bodies, and one of them asked: "Master Futai, what is insurance?"
"This is what Shopkeeper Xiang kicked out. Let him answer it for you." Mu Qianyu dismissed the blame.
What choice does Xiang Ziyou have? He can only answer honestly.
The more the merchants listened, the more moved they became. Who wouldn't be tempted by a business that was guaranteed to make a profit, so they all agreed to go back and discuss it, and then send them a reply.
Mu Qianyu felt that his role was enough, so he stood up and left, letting them continue eating.
In the next period of time, there were not many people queuing up to buy the No. 1 series of elixirs. There were still some elixirs left every day, but after about ten days, the number of people suddenly increased and the queue formed a long queue.
After asking, I found out that these people had seen other people using this elixir in the Mysterious Beast Forest. The effect was very good, and the reputation spread gradually.
Half a month later, Mu Qianyu had to increase the amount. He refined five hundred pills of each pill, and each person was limited to five pills per day. But even so, the supply was still in short supply, and people queued up early in the morning.
As a result, more and more monks stayed in Anping Mansion, and businesses such as inns, restaurants, and even clothing and jewelry stores were brought up.
Mu Qianyu's decree was also promulgated in due course, halving the business tax and exempting the land tax for the next three years. She had drafted this decree and sent it to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and she even wrote a letter to Ji Lin for this purpose.
letter.
Because Anping Prefecture had been unable to pay taxes to the court for many years, and local officials also had the right to adjust taxes within a reasonable range, they approved it.
She kept the fold under wraps for about half a month and now announced it to the whole government.
When the people heard this decree, they were so happy that they didn't know what to do. The next morning, they spontaneously came to the government office and thanked him loudly.
Since Mr. Futai took over, they have seen with their own eyes the dark clouds in the sky being pushed away layer by layer, and finally they can see the sunshine that makes people feel hopeful and warm.
Mu Qianyu didn't go out that day, so he heard the sound of people shouting in the backyard. He was stunned for a moment and scratched his head in embarrassment.
Merchants also saw the business opportunities emerging in Anping Prefecture, so they built new shops one after another. At that time, almost half of the state's construction craftsmen came to Anping Prefecture.
Anping Prefecture is developing at an incredible speed.
Governor Li was naturally unhappy when he found out, but he didn't move. He didn't bother to make a fuss. What he was waiting for was the opportunity to completely defeat Mu Qianyu with one blow.
The beast tide is probably coming.
However, Tongxian County did not think so. Mu Qianyu's actions directly threatened them. The insurance she promised was too attractive. Now merchants are opening branches one after another. You can imagine the long-term impact of this on Tongxian County.
Influence.
Cai Dayan also didn't expect Mu Qianyu to make such a decision, so he wrote a letter to ask for help from his father, who quickly responded and conveyed this idea to the magistrate of Tong County.
As business developed, the weather gradually warmed up. Mu Qianyu ordered farming and planted crops in all the fields in Anping Prefecture.
Mo Feng had advised her that there was no need to farm in the north, because once the beast tide came, the vast plains would be trampled until not even a blade of grass could grow, let alone crops.
But Mu Qianyu only had one word: "seed."
Although the bandits were very puzzled, they still worked diligently, just to have a chance to take action next time.
After so many days, the bandits around Anping Prefecture were wiped out, and all the bandits who could be recruited were recruited and reformed through labor. The labor force once numbered 4,000 people.
Another half month later, the farming was completed, and the first batch of shops were completed and opened. The diversification of industry could attract more monks, and basic needs could be met without even going to Tong County.
Mu Qianyu was quite proud to see the development under his rule was so good. Looking at the completion of those shops, he seemed to see the white spiritual stones entering his pocket.
However, at this time, Xiang Ziyou walked into the backyard with a very bad expression.
"What's wrong? Miss Yunzai didn't pay attention to you again?" Mu Qianyu squatted on the wall, originally looking out, but when he heard the voice, he turned around and started teasing.
During this period, Xiang Ziyou would go to Yuncui Tower to see Yun Zai every few days, but Yun Zai was not enthusiastic about him, so he could only spend tea money to listen to music in the hall with those people.
Xiang Ziyou sighed after hearing this, then shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is right, but today is for other things."
"What else could make you like this?" Mu Qianyu asked nonchalantly.
"Neighboring counties have taken action. They have roped in several well-known large businesses in Daxuan. These businesses are about to join forces to hold a grand auction in Tong County."
Mu Qianyu realized that the matter was extraordinary, changed from squatting to sitting, and said: "Go on."
"This auction will be held in ten days and last for half a month. The large auctions will be held every five days, while the small auctions will be held anytime and anywhere. It is said that they are excellent resources for various chambers of commerce." Xiang Ziyou continued.
"Then the person we just roped in will run away again." Mu Qianyu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Local shops can also participate in this auction event, but...the hidden rule is that shops with branch offices in Anping Prefecture are not allowed to participate, which is a disguised form of excluding people who are close to us."
"There are some tricks." Mu Qianyu tapped his fingers on the wall unconsciously.
