Prince brother is sticking to me again

Chapter 503 She Was Calculated!
"Xiao Mubei, who cares so much about the people's will, how can he force people to flood the treasury? Especially this kind of small businessman whose business is not good enough."

After hearing this, Liu Yingying still shook her head, expressing her incomprehension, "It's not about making them congest, so what else can they do?"

"Xiao Yi'an wants to intervene in their business and profit from it. Merchant ships need to pay taxes when transiting the border, but official ships don't. Of course, businessmen with big businesses don't care about this tax, and their minds are more shrewd. , will not take advantage of the imperial court, if the imperial court cooperates with them, I am afraid it will still lose money, but if the imperial court chooses small traders, it will be completely different, and the meat of the seemingly small sesame seeds may not necessarily be greater than There are few watermelons."

"So that's the case." Liu Yingying nodded half-understanding.

Shen Jianxu also couldn't help but nodded secretly.

That's right, Xiao Yi'an's plan was indeed like this.

Although the national treasury is relatively abundant now, His Majesty cannot take the risk of taking out all of it to go to war. In case of a natural disaster somewhere during the war, a large amount of money is needed for disaster relief. If there is no money at that time, His Majesty will definitely He was labeled as a foolish king, and this war will definitely be linked with natural disasters among the people. There will be rumors that this is the war that angered the gods, so the gods brought disasters to the world.

Therefore, Xiao Yi'an planned to use the official ship's tax exemption to help some small traders do business. Of course, the profit from it would definitely be higher than the tax.

But why don't the traders feel that they are losing money?

It's very simple, because since it's the imperial court's business, although it has to be shared with others, the source of goods and the market will be much better than what they have operated before. The business they are doing this time is for them. Unprecedented grand list.

And what this person said, the analysis that a real rich businessman would not be willing to do this kind of business is also completely correct.

Why are rich businessmen rich?Because they are more savvy than ordinary people, so the court does business with them, it may not be absolutely profitable.

But the more correct this person is, the more frightening this person is.

Most importantly, the enemy is in the dark.

"So, you didn't come here just to ask me this?"

"That's right, as you said, Xiao Yi'an is indeed preparing military supplies. In the morning, I talked with Yan Kuankui for a while, and then I learned from her a place that Xiao Yi'an will often visit these days. So I went there and found that it was actually a military warehouse! So I will inform you immediately, and you can see if you need any action."

Liu Yingying spoke very excitedly, as if one step later it would be too late.

But the master frowned after hearing her words, "Military supplies?"

"Yes, there are weapons such as bows and arrows and spears and..."

"Military supplies will make it easy for you to see?!"

Facing the master's suddenly furious voice, Liu Yingying trembled all over. After a moment of stunned, she immediately came to her senses, and suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

She and her master circled around almost at the same time.

She was plotted against!

"Who's there?!" He had the belated feeling that there must be someone around, but he couldn't predict the exact location.

But there must be someone!
Shen Jianxu also felt that something was wrong. When many masked dead men appeared around, he had to choose to evacuate quickly.
