Chapter 86: Back to Zhongshan
……
"It's finally back!"
Guo Jia lifted the carriage curtain, looked at Zhongshan County in the distance, and said to himself.
At this moment, Lunu City is different from when he left.
Inside, there are one street shop after another, with a dazzling array of goods and cries of selling.
Pedestrians followed one after another, and merchants in groups from east to west, constantly interrogating the prices of goods, among which there were some blue-eyed and long-bearded bearded people, which were not at all comparable to the coldness of a few months ago.
It seems that Xu Shu and they are doing a good job!
Guo Jia nodded with satisfaction.
The boss is only responsible for coming up with ideas, and the specific implementation must be done by his subordinates, otherwise is it still called the boss?
Xu Shu: They are really competent subordinates.
"Is this Zhongshan County?"
Cai Yan looked at all this in surprise.
It has long been heard that the north is bitter cold, and people live hard, but it seems that it is very prosperous here.
"It certainly wasn't like that a few months ago!"
Mi Zhen on the side said with a smile.
The Mi family is a businessman and is naturally well-informed.
Since Guo Jia promoted the border trade, Zhongshan County has become increasingly lively, and merchants from the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan have heard the news, and many have set up fixed shops here. Businesses in the mainland smelled the business opportunities and flocked to them.
In just a few months, Lunu City has initially had the scale of border trade.
The reason for this is Guo Jia's credit!
Cai Yan didn't speak, just looked at Guo Jia affectionately.
For this husband, Cai Meimei is still very satisfied.
"Are those Hu people? Let's go down and see what's good! ”
Cai Yu dragged Cai Yan and Mi Zhen and jumped out of the carriage.
Seeing Linlin's dazzling jewelry, this girl couldn't help it.
Guo Jia couldn't help but smile slightly and nodded to Xu Chu.
Xu Chu understood and immediately sent a group of men to follow.
This is the future housewife, and they naturally dare not slack off.
"Fengxiao, you did a good job!"
Cai Yong nodded with satisfaction.
For the officials, for the benefit of the people.
Guo Jia, as the Taishou of Zhongshan, can let the local people live and work in peace and contentment, which is the right way.
He became more and more pleasing to this son-in-law.
"My father-in-law praised it!"
Guo Jia smiled and hugged his fists.
When he left, he threw these things to Xu Shu and Xi Zhong, and these two wise men did not live up to his expectations, and built Lu Nu into a good shape in just a few months.
That's a bonus.
Of course, his trip to Jiangnan was also full of returns.
With Guo Jia and Gu Yong's handshake, it drew a perfect end to his trip to Jiangdong.
picked up Cai Yong, took Hua Tuo away, and received the full support of the Xuzhou Mi family and the Jiangdong Gu family.
What made Guo Jia even more excited was that he was finally able to take Cai Yan away justifiably.
Of course, by the way, he also abducted his sister-in-law Cai Yu.
Buy one get one free, this business is very cost-effective.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise not far away.
Guo Jia was slightly stunned, and immediately recognized that this was Cai Yu's voice.
Did something happen?
Guo Jia's heart sank, and he immediately rushed over with Dian Wei.
Not far away, the crowd formed several circles, and a group of uniformed men surrounded them.
The second circle is Xu Chu's men.
Xu Chu's subordinates are all newly recruited villagers, and they are not familiar with this place, and they don't know what these people do.
But they still instinctively surrounded the Cai sisters and protected them.
In the center of the circle are the Cai Yu sisters and Mi Zhen.
I saw Cai Yu's face flushed, his eyes were on fire, and he was staring at the person who came angrily.
"You guys are so unreasonable, isn't this a robbery?"
The girl asked angrily.
They had come to buy something, but the uniformed people came to charge the stall owner, who had no money and took the goods to top up.
The stall owner also dared to be angry.
"Little girl, new here. It's understandable not to know the rules here. ”
A greasy-haired and powdery-faced official at the head said with a smile.
He coughed and said, "This is Zhongshan, and it is our Guo Fujun's territory." If you want to do business in Zhongshan, you must abide by Guo Fujun's rules. ”
Guo Fujun's rules!
Cai Yu snorted.
"I know Guo Fujun's rules, he said that as long as he trades in Zhongshan, he will never collect taxes. What are you doing here? ”
Ha ha!
The man smiled smugly and said, "Yes, Guo Fujun said so." As long as you do business here, you don't have to pay taxes. ”
Hearing this, Cai Yu was a little strange.
"Since you don't have to pay taxes, what are you doing with other people's things?"
Does this stall owner owe money to others?
If that's the case, you're meddling.
Little sister!
The man smiled slightly and said, "Although they don't have to pay taxes, they do business here, and they eat and drink Lazar every day, and we all have to wait, and we don't have to pay any fees." For example, the booth fee, the capitation fee, the sanitation fee, the security fee and so on. ”
This......
Cai Yu was a little speechless for a while.
In fact, she didn't know the problem.
Hearing this, Guo Jia had a gloomy face and pushed everyone away and walked in.
"Only local shops in Zhongshan have a commercial tax, where else do they have this kind of fee? You're charging for it in a clever way! ”
At the beginning, his original intention of setting up border trade was also to develop Zhongshan's economy. The set fee items have also been deliberated for a long time.
Merchants do business here, and it naturally costs money to eat, drink, and sleep. It is completely possible to drive the surrounding food and accommodation industries, and the government only needs to levy a commercial tax on the owners of these shops. There are no other tax items.
This guy is just nonsense.
"Who are you?"
The man looked Guo Jia up and down a few times, and sneered: "Who accidentally exposed you." ”
He saw that Cai Yu's three daughters were all beauties, so he was polite.
But Guo Jia stood up and broke their actions in one mouth, which made him very annoyed.
Daring!
Dian Wei heard that these people dared to be rude to the lord, and they were still in Zhongshan County, and their faces turned black.
He stepped forward like he had ripped the bastard apart.
Guo Jia suddenly waved his hand to stop Dian Wei.
He glanced the group up and down.
"You don't look like ordinary people, whose subordinates are you, and who asked you to come here to charge."
There is a large army stationed in Zhongshan, and the hooligans and scoundrels will not be so blatant, and they all have uniform on them, and they are organized and disciplined at first glance.
Ha ha!
The man stood on his toes.
"Listen, we are tax collectors, under the command of Liu Yuanjun, and Liu Yuanjun is the right-hand man of Lord Taishou."
Liu Yuanjun?
Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and after thinking carefully for a while, he didn't have the surname Liu under his command.
Could it be the talent that has been invested in the past few months?
"Boy, it's okay to get out of here, otherwise you will be arrested in the name of obstructing law enforcement!"
The man said unceremoniously.
Is it?
A sneer flashed across Guo Jia's face.
can make the border trade he has worked so hard to run into a miasma, and he really wants to see this Liu Yuanjun.
"Leave a living mouth!"
The smile on Guo Jia's face turned cold.
He naturally would not be so merciful to those who dared to challenge his authority.
