The mansion of King Zhuo Sun in Qili, at this moment, is brightly lit.
The finest whale candle reflects the entire Zhuo Mansion as if it were day.
Rows of singers, singing and dancing, in the melodious music, one by one, pushing the cups and handing the lamps, everyone has a bright smile on their faces.
"Gentlemen, today our generation is here to discuss important matters" as the master, Zhuo Wangsun smiled and held the wine bottle, and said: "Come and wish us a lot of wealth and wealth for eternity" When everyone heard this, they got up one after another, holding the wine bottle and said, "Don't dare, but only Zhuo Gong's order is obeyed" This time, the giants of the world, gathered in Chang'an, conspired with the foundation of Guanzhong, the initiator, liaison and planner, is the old man of the Son of Heaven, the Guiping Jun of the Han Empire, one of the Taishang Emperors of Southwest Yi, and the well-deserved richest man in the empire.
Until now, no one can know how much money Zhuo has.
In his mines alone, tens of thousands of slave laborers toiled every day under the whip of the overseers.
At the foot of the mine, there are blast furnaces, tens of thousands of slave workers and thousands of craftsmen, smelting iron day and night.
Every day's income is a splash of wealth What's more, Zhuo Wangsun's business is now more than just iron smelting.
He was also one of the largest slave traders in the world.
In the past few years, he and Cheng Zhengying have supplied one-third of the world's slave labor.
This is still because the Zhao clan of South Vietnam has made efforts in the past two years, desperately catching savages in Jiaozhi County and Rinan County, and stealing business with them.
Not to mention, Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying are still the largest suppliers of the Han family's slaves.
In addition, the markets of the Southwest Yi countries are also completely theirs.
These two terrible businessmen have almost killed the entire southwestern country.
The once powerful Dian Kingdom is now directly dying.
Legend has it that even the king has changed three Yelang Kingdom, another powerful country, hugged the thigh of Zhao Hu, the king of Nanyue, and desperately handed over the fold to the Son of Heaven through Zhao Hu's channel.
At the beginning, King Yelang still squirmed and said that he was a barbarian, he had been in Nanban for a long time, he didn't know about China, and he wanted to rely on selling cuteness to mix his status.
But now, this Yelang King is already rolling all over the ground, directly saying in the song that he is a barbarian small country, and admires the prestige of the holy king of China, and asks His Majesty to send officials and envoys, collect the atlas, and live for generations, and be a concubine forever.
However, the Son of Heaven has never had time to free up his hands to take care of the Southwest Yi.
Therefore, all the music of the Yelang King sank into the sea, and not even a bubble rose.
And the reason why this Yelang King is like this is because he was scared by Cheng Zhengying and Zhuo Wangsun, and he played a psychological shadow Over the years, Yelang Kingdom, which was once one of the best powers and great powers in the southwest, has now become an eagle dog under Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying.
The dignified Yelang King, when facing a representative of the Zhuo family and the Cheng Zheng family, could only tremble and serve him like a father, for fear that if there was a slight mistake, he would fall into the fate of the three Dian kings.
And these things, in today's world, can be hidden from the people, but they can't be hidden from these rich businessmen.
There are many channels for everyone's news.
There are even people who can get news from the court.
Therefore, most of the people present are now both envious of Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying, and afraid of these two.
Everyone knows that compared with these two national abbots, their own means and skills are not on the table at all However, fortunately, in the future, the Han army will pass through the Western Regions and even attack the more distant body poison and Great Xia.
Until that time "We can't learn the methods of the Zhuo clan and the Cheng Zheng clan."
Thinking like this, these people get excited.
There are 36 countries in the Western Regions, so there should be a population of several million As for the Western Regions, the land of poison and Great Xia, it is said that the population is no less than China.
If the king's division goes west in the future, the place where the Han army goes is the place where they will get rich and even prosperous That's because of that.
So for more than a year, especially in the last month or two, these big businessmen have begun to actively pay taxes They no longer need the lord and the lieutenant to urge them again and again, and they no longer need the lord and the lieutenant yamen to send troops to collect taxes by force.
They themselves automatically and consciously sent the taxes they should pay to the Yamen of the Lord Duwei.
Some people even began to deliberately overpay taxes to stipulate that only businessmen with tens of millions of dollars can enjoy the right to write books, and now, many big businessmen, in order to get this power and honor, slap their swollen faces and become fat, and deliberately falsely report their profits, anyway, this tax is not very high, with 10 million as the standard, the actual tax paid is likely to be only 100,000, at most 200,000 Although the law stipulates that the tax rate of industry and commerce is unified to five calculations, that is, 10,000 yuan of goods, levy 600 yuan, and the tax rate is 6 millions, However, the family property includes both movable and immovable property, so a merchant with a family fortune of 10 million must sell less than his total assets in a year.
Such a low tax rate, on the one hand, ensures the profits of industry and commerce, and on the other hand, it also gives the world's big businessmen, especially those who are interested in a relationship with the Son of Heaven, room for manipulation.
Like Qi Guotian, he was originally just a businessman in Surabaya, and his ancestors earned millions of family dollars by doing shipping business, so when he was a child, Tian's contemporary head of the family was able to be classmates with today's Shaofu Ling Liu She, but in fact, it had nothing to do with it, and after Liu She arrived in Chang'an, he almost forgot that he had such a classmate.
And Tian's business also went from Surabaya to Qi and settled in Linzi.
But at that time, the Tian family's property added up, and it was only two or three million to die However, when the law of peace was promulgated, Tian Wei, the head of the Tian family and now a legendary businessman of the Qi Kingdom, saw the opportunity. decisively took out 200,000 yuan, and bragged that he earned millions last year by selling cloth and transportation.
At that time, the lord Duwei Yamen was first established, and the Tian family jumped out, bragged about it, and paid the taxes in full.
Then, it was treated as a type.
State orders were constantly stuffed over, and even, the lord Duwei Gongsun Hongming knew that the Tian family was bragging, but he also wrote to the king of Jiangdu, asking the king of Jiangdu to take care of it.
At that time, this was actually a thousand dollars to buy horse bones.
But King Jiangdu doesn't know thought that this Tian family was a relationship between Gongsun Hong and the master's father, so he gave the green light.
Not only did he give Tian Wei fifteen fake ships, but he even gave Tian Wei the transportation power of the official trade between Jiangdu and Nanyue.
In just two years, the wealth of the Lao Tian family swelled like blowing up a balloon.

In the last year, it has already paid off all the loans and interest on the fake ships from Jiangdu State, and has placed orders for another 20 ships, three of which are even cargo ships that can carry out offshore shipping The Tian family, conservatively estimated, now has at least 80 million But Tian Wei is used to bragging and boasting, claiming to the outside world that he earns more than 10,000 yuan a year, and this guy really pays taxes Even, he framed his tax records, the voucher issued by the lord Duwei Yamen, and pasted them in his mansion in Linzi, Qi State.
Whenever a guest comes to discuss business, take him to see his tax certificate first.
The merchant looked at the last year, and the Tian family's business income exceeded 10,000,000 yuan, and there was a tax certificate from the lord Duwei Yamen You can't go wrong The goods are handed over to the Tian family for carriage, which must be safe and absolutely safe As a result, the Tian family's business became bigger and bigger.
Last year, Tian's fleet only roamed around the Yangtze River.
This year, it has already penetrated deep into both sides of the river, and even next year it will be possible to cross the sea.
The cloth and silk produced in Tian's workshop were also sold to various places through their fleet.
Especially in the country of South Vietnam, Tian Thi cloth has even become a signboard.
The South Vietnamese now buy cloth, as long as the Tien cloth Everyone else's cloth feels that there is a problem.
As a result, businessmen like Wang and Zhang, who were also engaged in the cloth business, had to claim that their own was also Tian's cloth, so that they could sell it in Nanyue This time, as soon as Zhuo Wangsun said hello, Tian Wei immediately abandoned his business and came to Chang'an with his son and nephew.
After arriving in Chang'an, because his property and assets were all in the south.
He only carried a few hundred gold himself.
But this guy has a smart brain and is good at researching, and as soon as he heard that the shops in the nine cities of Chang'an may have to be tendered.
Immediately went to find his former classmates, relying on this relationship, Tian Wei saw Liu She, and then began to fool him with the tax voucher he gave to the lord Du Wei Yamen and the confirmation document and property certificate issued by the lord Du Wei, which proved that he did have tens of thousands of properties, and has always had a good tax record, never defaulted on taxes, and paid taxes on time.
Then, relying on these pieces of paper, he got a piece of paper from Shaofu, a certificate that could borrow a total of no more than 70 million money from the Shaofu treasury anytime and anywhere, and the interest rate was terrifyingly low, but only eleven Then, he returned the paper to Shaofu and got the ticket to bid for the shops in the nine cities of Chang'an.
In other words, Tian Wei didn't do anything.
However, with a few pieces of paper in one mouth, he got a loan of 70 million yuan empty-handed.
Moreover, some well-informed people heard about it, and even alarmed the Son of Heaven, and this loan was personally approved by the Son of Heaven today In other words, Tian Wei relied on a mouth and a few pieces of paper, not only got a huge state loan totaling 70 million, but also got the admission ticket to the nine cities of Chang'an, which was coveted by the Kanto businessman Jia, and he may also get the attention of the Son of Heaven who everyone would rather spend all their family property and want This really makes countless people envious, jealous and hateful You must know that in the current Han business world, the most powerful people are not the so-called richest people like Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying, nor is it the Shi family who can make money lying down now.
It's the Son of Heaven who hides behind these huge riches Today, in the hearts of the giants who know the inside story, it is a character who is 10,000 times more powerful than the ancestor Tao Zhugong He Nunuzui, the Shi family got the right to operate the track, although at the beginning, many people thought that the Shi family estimated the pill this time, but in the end, everyone was stunned by their eyes.
And now, if the Son of Heaven is willing to give the franchise of the second track, the merchants of the whole world will be willing to go bankrupt and do whatever it takes But alas Orbit, henceforth all state-run.
Private capital is no longer easy to get involved in is also like Cheng Zhengying and Zhuo Wangsun in Linqiong.
At the beginning, these two guys were in front of Jinshang, and they offered their daughters and family property.
The ramp project, like a Mount Tai, made the whole world feel suffocated.
Countless people thought that the final outcome of Zhuo's and Cheng Zheng's might be very bleak.
But, now, these two are not only not dragged down by the project.
On the contrary, the family fortune has grown like a snowball, and more importantly, they are now covered with a layer of tiger skin of the emperor's relatives.
The merchants of the whole world are the most majestic of them.
In Southwest Yi, they are the emperor and the mastermind behind the scenes.
In Shu County, they are the guests of the county guard, and the great benevolent people sought after by the people in the county.
Even in Guanzhong, they have a good reputation.
Because of the construction of the slope, even the common people no longer think that they are profiteers who are rich and unkind.
Even the bureaucrats of the Legalists had respect for these two, believing that although they were businessmen, they were righteous businessmen, benevolent businessmen, and good businessmen like Bai Gui assisted Li Kui in changing the law.
This really made countless businessmen look blushing In this world, money can buy a lot of things.
But only, you can't buy fame And in the Han Dynasty, reputation can decide many things, even enough to determine a person's life and death Not to mention, in the story, in the jokes that circulate in the streets, there are many stories of thieves who met on the road and thought they would die, but after reporting their names, the thieves immediately stopped, returned all their wealth, and escorted them all the way to a safe place.
And these stories, as the merchants know, are true.
In these years, the green forest heroes who robbed and sheared and plagiarized were all very professional.
As long as they are not extremely vicious, they generally do not harm people's lives, and even if they are extremely vicious, when facing a well-known righteous man and filial son, they will definitely show mercy to them, and even dare not offend And Zhuo's and Cheng Zheng's, these two bastards whose hands were stained with blood and could be called evildoers, but now, they have the titles of righteous businessmen and gentlemen's businessmen.
How does this not make people jealous And whether it is the Shi family, or the Zhuo family, or the Cheng Zheng family, they all relied on today's son to rise and have today. otherwise They are already dry bones in the grave, and there are no scum left of the dead.
And now, Tian has become the fourth merchant to get the attention and attention of the Son of Heaven.
Everyone knows that the rise of the Tian family is already in sight.
And Tian Wei's success has also stimulated others.
On the one hand, these guys immediately let people go to their homes to get their own tax vouchers, but unfortunately, they don't have Tian Wei's brains, they don't brag, they all pay taxes honestly, and some people even try to evade taxes.
And in retrospect, this is undoubtedly a failure.
So, they started to move.
I tried to find the relationship between the lord and the lieutenant in the yamen, in short, I wanted to find a way to see if I could make up for the arrears of the past few years. but The first sip has already been drunk by Tian Wei.
Everyone else knows that it is almost impossible for the Son of Heaven to pay attention to his followers anymore.
