Chapter 468: Micro Service Patrol
Chu Xian smiled.
How could he not see this truth, what surprised him was that Li Ziyun was so smart and could see so deeply, and even surpassed many officials.
"Aster, if you are an official, the official position will definitely be above me. Chu Xian said, Li Ziyun smiled: "But you have to take the money out for emergency first, I know you don't have it, don't ask others to borrow, even if you want to borrow, you can only borrow from me." ”
Chu Xian was stunned this time.
"Aster, now you have to have at least about 150,000 taels of silver to be able to deal with emergencies!"
This is a reminder, after all, Chu Xian feels that Li Ziyun should not have so much money.
Unexpectedly, Li Ziyun smiled slightly: "Isn't it just 150,000 taels, I'll bring it to you tomorrow." ”
Now, in Li Ziyun's mouth, the 150,000 taels seem to be the same as the fifteen taels, which is something that Chu Xian didn't expect, although he was married to Li Ziyun in his previous life, he really didn't know that she was so rich.
Half-convinced, Chu Xian waited until the next day, Li Ziyun went out for a long time, and when he came back at noon, he really brought 150,000 taels.
The silver is packed in a 'money bag', the money bag is a magic weapon, which contains Qiankun, and can only be loaded with gold and silver.
Chu Xian saw that it was really 150,000 taels of silver.
Li Ziyun looked trivial, and Chu Xian was curious, where did she get so much money.
"You don't know this, I have a friend who has a lot of property at home, including pharmacies, all over the state, and hundreds of semicolons have been opened, I just have consigned several medicines in his pharmacy, and I have two cents of interest for the prescription, but these two cents of interest are more than 100,000 taels a year, and I don't need money on weekdays, but as long as I need to, I can withdraw them at any time. Li Ziyun said at this time.
As soon as he heard this, Chu Xian knew who Li Ziyun was talking about.
Qi kite.
Qi family.
In Jingzhou, the Qi family is the rich family, and the gold and silver in the family are afraid that they can be counted in the tens of millions, and with the relationship between Li Ziyun and Qi Yuan, it is really possible to help the Qi family develop a medicine store.
Who is Aster Lee?
The only daughter of the medical fairy Li Fuzi, the daughter of the medical fairy, is naturally quite good at medical skills, and she knows a lot of ancient prescriptions.
Two cents of profit, more than 100,000 taels a year, that is estimated to be less, of course, if Li Ziyun speaks, let alone hundreds of thousands of taels, I am afraid that no matter how much, you can get it.
Chu Xian really forgot that Li Ziyun is the kind of person who can easily get money as long as she is willing, but like Li Fuzi, Li Ziyun is not very interested in money, if she doesn't need it this time, she is afraid that she will not think of this stubble.
Since it is the money that Li Ziyun deserves, it is naturally no problem.
At that moment, Chu Xian called Changshi Li Ji and asked the other party to take the 150,000 taels for emergency, at least he could immediately distribute the money of officials at all levels.
Others are officials, that is to make money, Chu Xian is good this time, a few days after being an assassin, he has actually been out of more than 100,000 taels.
"That's not how officials do. Chu Xian also knew that this was for emergencies, otherwise he would definitely not choose the method of advancing money, because it would not be honorable to say it.
However, compared to going to the household department to ask for money in person, this is relatively better.
"Aster, I'll pay you back. Chu Xian said at this time, Li Ziyun was extremely smart and knew what Chu Xian meant, so he nodded: "Okay, write an IOU." ”
Chu Xian really wrote an IOU, but it was in the name of the history of Liangzhou.
In other words, this money was borrowed from Li Ziyun by the Liangzhou Prefecture Government, that is to say, Chu Xian will repay this amount of money to Li Ziyun in the name of the Liangzhou Prefecture in the future.
This is a commitment, and it also shows from the side that Chu Xian is determined to improve the situation in Liangzhou.
The matter of picking up Chu Huang and Concubine Luo was taught to Li Ziyun and Luo Yong, and Chu Xian took Chu San to start his inspection of various places in Liangzhou.
Of course, Chu Xian did not make a big fanfare, but used the method of micro-service private interviews.
Although this is very 'insidious', it is definitely the fastest, and Chu Xian's plan is to inspect one place and change places in three or five days at most.
In this way, it will take more than two months at most, and you can go all over the land of Liangzhou.
Only took Chu San, and both of them were cultivators in the realm of grandmasters, walking like the wind, which saved time.
Liangzhou has a total of 11 large cities, 5 small cities, a total of 16 cities, each city is divided into 10 to 20 counties, from top to bottom, the state capital, the city government, the county government, the three-government system, is the structure of the Holy Dynasty to manage the state land.
Of course, Chu Xian can't go to more than 200 counties once, if this is the case, let alone two months, even one year is not enough.
Therefore, the sixteen city governments are the key, and by the way, you can go and see a few counties.
Chu Xian was very familiar with Liangzhou before, the first to go is the nearest 'tile city' from Shacheng, it is said that thousands of years ago, there was a heavenly fire falling, will burn a place, the ground is like glazed golden tiles, hence the name.
The city is best known for its fire.
I heard that it was the fire that fell thousands of years ago, and it has been burning underground, and with the help of the ground fire, the production of various glazed tiles in Wacheng is all kind, and many foreign merchants or caravans from other countries will come here to purchase.
Along the road, you can see a lot of caravans, pulling all kinds of glazed tiles, which is enough to see the liveliness of the tile city.
"Master, this Wacheng caravan is like a shuttle, but why is it that among the sixteen cities in Liangzhou, the tax revenue is only ranked tenth, can't there be officials who are corrupt?" Chu San has been following Chu Xian for a long time, and he can also understand some things, obviously, even Chu San can see that the glazed tile business over there in Wacheng is very good, in this case, why can't the tax come up?
"Just check it out. "Chu Xian is not easy to say now, so he can only understand the situation first.
Wacheng is one of the five small cities, although the scale is not large, but it is very lively, this lively is not only to say that there are many people, but also to say the temperature.
Because it has the nickname of Earth Fire Molten City, the first feeling when you enter Tile City is heat.
The men and women here are dressed very coolly, the men wear the shawls of the shoulders and the women, the men are open-chested and the arms are exposed, and the women only have the upper body wrapped around the chest and the lower body is over the knee skirt, nothing more, it can be said that it is full of exotic style, which is very different from many states in Middle-earth.
Fortunately, the dress was similar to that of Shacheng here, and Chu San, who was used to it, didn't look straight at it.
Because don't look at the women here dressed so boldly, in fact, most of the women are very conservative, and they are even more clean, of course, the temper of the women here is also very 'hot', and they often fight when they don't agree with each other, and they are all strong in martial arts.
Therefore, in addition to the traditional business in various places, the qi and blood stones used by martial artists and the spirit stones used in magic cultivation are also very good.
Chu Xian and Chu San entered the city without much effort.
After entering the city, I didn't rush to walk around, but first found a place to stay.
Of course, Chu Xian came out with silver this time, but most of it was Chu Xian's own private property, and there was still a lot of silver in the Qiankun bag given by the wolf king last time, and Chu Xian had also used it over the years, but there was still a lot of surplus.
Looking for a good inn, I asked the innkeeper about the situation in Wacheng.
The guy estimated that Chu Xuan was a businessman, so he was also very enthusiastic and introduced.
"Two guest officers, if you want to buy glazed tiles, there is only one in our tile city, that is, De Ruixiang, all the businessmen, can only buy from there, of course, no matter what the goods, De Ruixiang has. In addition to glazed tiles, there are also cloth and grain stores, by the way, if you want to enter some qi blood stones and spirit stones, it is not wrong to find them. ”
The guy was obviously familiar with the road, but Chu Xian frowned when he heard it.
"This guy, I'm also a newcomer, the first time I came to Wacheng, I've heard of De Ruixiang, there are also their branches in Shacheng, but in Shacheng, not only De Ruixiang. ”
Chu Xian asked, what he meant was that this guy said that there was only De Ruixiang's family to buy goods in Wacheng, which was a little strange.
Could it be that there are no other merchants in Wacheng?
The guy said: "Guest officer, you have said that the first time you came to Wacheng, it is normal not to know, I don't know other cities, just say that in Wacheng, De Ruixiang is the only one, although the price is a little more expensive, but the quality is guaranteed, if it is a regular customer, it can be cheaper, and the most important thing is that from De Ruixiang to take the goods, you can be exempted from taxes." ”
The last sentence, the guy said it in a whisper, and Chu Xian's eyes lit up when he heard it.
Tax-free?
This is done in the state, whether it is bought or sold, you have to pay a certain amount of taxes, although it is not much, but the amount is large, it is also a lot of money.
And no matter if you go out of the city or enter the city, the guards guarding the gate have to check, if you don't have a tax stamp, don't want to leave, how can you steal taxes and silver?
Chu Xian asked again, but the guy didn't say anything, and he was afraid that he would lose a lot of words.
Chu San couldn't hold back and wanted to ask, but was pulled back by Chu Xian.
"Don't worry, since you're here, you'll have to figure it out sooner or later. ”
Chu Xian is now with a gloomy face.
No matter what method the other party uses, it must be done in the tax silver, no wonder the state government has no money, if someone is doing tricks and feet behind the back, it could have collected 10,000 taels of tax silver, but in the end it may not even be able to receive 1,000 taels, for a long time, the state government is rich.
So Chu Xian felt that he had come to the right place to secretly investigate this time.
At that moment, the two of them went out, and when they looked at it, they found that in Wacheng, there was only the business name of De Ruixiang, and in addition, other businesses could not be seen at all.
This is obviously also very abnormal.
It took a day, and Chu Xian finally figured out that if they bought De Ruixiang's things, they could indeed pay less, or even be exempted from paying taxes, and the method they used was also very simple.
If you buy a thousand taels of goods, only mark the price of a hundred taels, naturally, the tax and silver can only be paid into one percent, when going out of the city, as long as there is the flag of the De Ruixiang firm, just check it and let it go, so of course nothing can be found, a group of peace.
