Datang: Invincible in the world, the widow of King Zhao of the West

Chapter 152 Draw the ground as a prison, if you refuse to accept it, you will be beaten to death!
"kill!"

Northland.

border.

Li Xun led the Tiance Army, which has been active in the border area for the past month. All soldiers from other countries were massacred!

That's right, a one-sided massacre!

"People of Tang Dynasty, you are too deceitful!"

Goguryeo's general, watching his soldiers being slaughtered, said angrily.

Li Xun looked at him and said, "You Goguryeos should not be active here anymore. From now on, this is the border of the Tang Dynasty. If you dare to cross the Liaoshui River, come one, I will kill one, and come a pair. This king will kill a pair!"

Liaoshui.

It can be said to be Goguryeo's natural defense barrier. If you want to fight Goguryeo, you must cross the river. When crossing the river, it is when Goguryeo counterattacks. Why can't Goguryeo be wiped out? Liaoshui is definitely one of the reasons.

It is impossible for the other party to let you cross the river safely.

"you!!"

Li Xun didn't talk nonsense, and waved his hand: "Kill!"

The combat effectiveness of Goguryeo's soldiers is not as good as that of the Tang Army, let alone the Tiance Army. The two sides are not at the same level at all.

For a long time, there were thousands of Goguryeo soldiers, and none of them survived.

Looking at the Liao River in front of you, as long as you cross the river, Goguryeo can be destroyed with a single blow.

Wang Xuance and the others also looked at the other side of the Liao River.

"If it weren't for this natural barrier, how could Goguryeo be so stable?" Wang Xuance said.

Li Xun just smiled lightly.

"Station some Tiance troops here. In the future, merchants will collect taxes from anyone who wants to cross the Liaoshui River and land on the border of the Tang Dynasty. If soldiers from Goguryeo want to come, they will be killed directly without reporting. !"

"Yes, my lord!"

Li Xun looked at the sparkling river, and said: "Today, the king wants to build a prison, whether it is Goguryeo, Silla, or Baekje, as long as they enter the border of our Tang Dynasty, merchants will be charged 20.00% of the tax on the goods. The rest are charged per person!"

"If you want my Datang's goods to enter their borders, you must prepare money!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"However, lord, you'd better send some people who are responsible for collecting money. You let us kill people, which is good for us, but collecting money, we are not good enough." Zhao Tanlang said.

Li Xun nodded: "Well, there will be people from the trade city."

"Zhao Tanlang, from now on, take this king's command and let the Tang army on the frontier gather here. This will be the new frontier of the Tang Dynasty from now on."

Zhao Tanlang: "Yes, my lord!"

"The rest, after returning, continue training!"

"The border of the Tang Dynasty is more than that!"

Even if Wang Xuance and the others don't do business, they also know that if merchants get goods from Datang Trade City and sell them in Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla, the price will definitely double.

Their tax is charged at 20.00%, so the price of their goods will definitely be higher.

On the road.

Wang Xuance asked suspiciously: "My lord, we collect taxes from merchants, but what if they also collect taxes?"

Li Xun asked: "Do we lack the necessities of daily life?"

Wang Xuance shook his head: "No shortage!"

Li Xun said: "That's right, I have read all the goods in and out of the trade city. Among them, snowflake salt is now the most demanded product in Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje. If they want to eat snowflake salt, just You can buy it from the trade city."

"The price is their problem, and whether they eat it or not is also their problem. It's not that we don't sell it to them."

Wang Xuance frowned and asked, "But, my lord, what if they don't buy it?"

Li Xun smiled and asked, "If you are asked to continue eating those salt cloths and yellow salt cubes, will you still eat them?"

Wang Xuance immediately understood.

Nonsense, I have eaten snowflake salt, those previous salts, I can't eat at all.

"So, no matter how high the price is, they should still buy it, eat it or eat it!"

"Besides, the price is high, what's the matter with Guan Benwang?"

"That's the merchant's business."

Wang Xuance looked at Li Xun strangely, good guy, in the trading city, a 20.00% transaction tax was charged, and when he came to the border, a 30.00% border crossing tax was charged, so [-]% was collected. What is this? concept?
You have goods worth [-] yuan, and you have to pay [-] yuan in taxes just for this journey.

It means that Hai didn't make any money, and lost another [-] Wen.

Originally, you can earn [-] Wen for the goods of [-] Wen, and after paying the transaction tax of [-] Wen, you can make a net profit of [-] Wen, but now, your [-] Wen has become [-] Wen, will these merchants be willing? ?
I definitely don't want to!

So, are they willing to use their own money to make up for the twenty Wen?Only fools are willing, the only way is to increase the price!

Let the customer make up the money.

In this way, whether it is Goguryeo, Silla or Baekje, their prices will rise.

At least, the price of the goods from Datang will increase, even if the imperial court intervenes, there is no way. reason.

In the trade city.

When the new regulations appeared, the faces of those merchants who specialized in passing business changed.

"Why do you still have to collect boundary tax!"

"No, the original pricing is no longer valid, and the price must be increased."

"Anyway, I'm thinking about raising the price. Isn't this 50.00% price increase too much?"

These merchants are more ruthless than each other. Li Xun charged 20.00%, and they raised the price by 50.00%.

Anyway, in the end, other courts will pay the bill, and this has nothing to do with Li Xun.

Again.

When a good becomes a necessity, no matter what the price is, someone will consume it.

Although snowflake salt is cheap, its demand is huge!

Today's Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje are inseparable from snowflake salt.

Another month later.

Goguryeo.

"Bastard!"

"You bastard!"

The king of Goguryeo slammed the things on the table angrily.

"What does King Zhao of the Tang Dynasty want to do? Is he so difficult that he is not afraid that the king will also take money?"

After the King of Goguryeo finished speaking.

The expressions of the servants below changed instantly.

"Your Majesty, no way!"

"If we also collect money, those merchants might stop coming. At that time, we will have no place to buy snowflake salt, canned meat and so on."

This is the truth.

However, in the ears of the King of Goguryeo, he was very aggrieved!
"Damn King Zhao!"

Once the price rises, the people of Goguryeo will suffer unspeakably. How can they have so much money!
Silla.

"Father, I think we can cooperate with King Zhao of the Tang Dynasty."

Princess Silla said.

"Oh?"

Princess Silla said: "I feel that King Zhao of the Tang Dynasty is only targeting Goguryeo. They have enmity with Goguryeo, but they have no enmity with us."

"Erchen thinks that we can cooperate with Datang, or in other words, we can"

King Silla's expression changed.

"No!"

Princess Silla said: "Father, you can also see the changes in Datang. Now, who will be the opponent of Datang?"

"Furthermore, father and son have already inquired that Datang has a crop that can produce several thousand catties per mu. Once they plant it on a large scale, will it be two years or three years?"

"Datang is destined to be the overlord!"

"If we make good friends with Datang at this time, in the future, there may still be the word Silla."
