My name is Ren

Chapter 21 Sometimes you should listen quietly to what others have to say, and don't rush to interrupt
Salcomo's work efficiency is very high, especially when he sees the steps to a higher peak, the passion of all previous actions explodes instantly.Whether he agrees or disagrees, he has suppressed him as the president of the Bell Province Business Association. All businessmen in the Bell Province must cooperate with him unconditionally.The benefits involved here are not tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of gold coins, but a larger scale.

A monopolized product and the subdivided products extended from this product are enough to make him surpass the presidents of other chambers of commerce, and his legendary merchant name will be even more dazzling.

When everything was in place, Salcomo invited Wren to the first meeting of the Bell Province Business Association to discuss and ask which products would be included in the scope of tax rebates and subsidies.

The meeting was held in a luxurious house in the commercial district of Ortrenburg. This is the residence of the Ortrenburg Chamber of Commerce. The gaps in the pure white floor without a trace of variegation were poured with melted gold, filling all the gaps.The female slaves belonging to the Chamber of Commerce wore light tulle and danced gracefully.

They are lucky, at least they don't need to sell their bodies for a meal or to support their families.But they are also sad and miserable. As long as someone has an idea, he can enjoy the pleasure of two different genders with them on any occasion in this building, not for the sake of racial reproduction.

As soon as Ren entered this building, he couldn't help covering his nose. The fragrance here was so strong that it choked his nose.Of course, he also understood what it was for, the strong fragrance could cover up the faint fishy smell.

Salcomo immediately had all the windows opened to ease Ryan's discomfort a little.

"This time I convened 21 members of the Chamber of Commerce in Ortrenburg. The commodities they trade almost cover all the things that can be bought in the entire Ortrenburg. The process of this discussion will be synchronized with the headquarters of the Bell Chamber of Commerce. Exchange. Of course, the final result will be based on your opinion." Salcomo accompanied Rennes and explained the content of the meeting.

I have to say that these businessmen are really rich, and they actually want to open the magic window for simultaneous communication in different places.The magic window is a great invention. After two magic circles with the same magic patterns are inlaid with Tiberium crystals, they will produce a magical resonance within a certain range.The result of this resonance is that a sand table about one meter square will respond to each other.Write or draw on the magic sand table on one side, and the sand table on the other side will immediately produce the same changes, showing words or pictures.

Some titled sages in the Imperial Research Institute believe that if the magic pattern of the magic window can be used and supplemented more effectively, maybe in the near future, direct calls and face-to-face communication can even be realized.Of course, this statement has been going on for at least 30 years, and the royal family has allocated more than 100 million gold coins for this purpose, but until today, there has been no change in the magic window.

The reason why the merchants are so rich is because of the price of the Tiberium spar, which is said to come from outside the sky, which can store a lot of magic power and release it when necessary. The release process does not require a magician. Ordinary people can fuck.A Tiberium spar that is filled with magic power and weighs about 3 grams sells for as much as ten gold coins.However, such a spar can only maintain the magic pattern of the magic window for about [-] minutes.

Rein was noncommittal about the Chamber of Commerce's attitude and importance, and he entered the meeting room with Salcomo's lead.

The meeting room is very large. The round table made of gold-covered dragon's blood wood is extremely luxurious, and the conference chairs made of monel animal skin are also very exquisite. The decoration is also luxurious, but it is not serious enough.Businessmen, understandably, they always settle things while eating, drinking, and having fun.At this time, the table was full of people. Seeing Ren and Sarcomo coming in, these businessmen stood up to show their respect.

Ren raised his hand and pressed, and everyone sat down. Salcomo took the lead and said: "Today's meeting is of great significance. I must have understood it. We will create a new era and leave a strong mark in the history of the empire." We will be remembered by the latecomers, and even recorded in the business textbook, and worshiped by the latecomers!", old things are very good at mobilizing the atmosphere, and businessmen, a wealthy group, hope to be respected more than other industries.

"Next, I would like to invite the great lord of Ortrenburg, the golden noble Baron Wren, to explain this brand-new system to us." Salcomo sat down in the first deputy position on the left, the meeting room There was applause and praise.

Ren will not feel vanity satisfied, nor will he be very happy because of this. This is his plan, and it is a plan that must be implemented and implemented.He looked around and said, "I don't want to talk nonsense, and I don't want to be polite, so I'll go straight to the point." He picked up the silver teacup and took a sip of black tea, then turned his head and glanced at Salcomo, This black tea should come from Long Island, and it has the unique fragrance of ambergris.

"I first listed ten kinds of tax refund and subsidy products, as for the others, we can discuss it later. First of all, Dragon Crystal, I told Salcomo about this item, the tax refund ratio is 5.00%, that is to say, as long as you buy it from Byron or If you get Longjing from other places, you will pay taxes through me, and I will refund as much as you pay. If Longjing is directly traded to me, I will subsidize another [-]% of the total price as an encouragement." Ren looked at Others, "Who has an opinion?"

Of course, no one will be stupid enough to stand up and object. Longjing has always been a product that is in short supply. They only thought that there would be tax rebates, but they didn’t expect that Longjing would have subsidies. smile.The most important thing is that a thing that can only be smuggled in private can be done in the open, which greatly reduces the risk of these businessmen.

"Very good, the second item, food. All the food within the edible period will receive a full tax refund and a [-]% subsidy. Here I need to clarify that the subsidy price of food is subsidized according to the average price of the empire. And The most important point is that stale grain and spoiled food are not within the scope of tax rebates, and these things cannot be eaten by people and can only be fed to livestock."

The big grain merchants also showed smiles. Compared with other trades that are more risky, the trade of grain has always been the safest, and it is also the largest.

A tax rebate and subsidy product was established, and almost all the merchants in Bell Province were paying attention to this matter, calculating how much benefit they could get from it, and almost everyone was satisfied.But when Wren proposed the goods to be taxed, objections were raised.

"Why is Long Island smoke bricks included in that protection tax? I protest this measure, and I demand that smoke bricks also be included in the scope of tax rebates!" When a businessman included smoke bricks in the protective tariff in Rennes, Couldn't help but open his mouth to object.

The smoke bricks produced in Longdao are indeed very good luxury consumer goods, much better than those low-quality smoke bricks in China, the price is higher, and the profit is also higher.Every trade can bring the businessman more than twenty gold coins in profit. The annual income of hundreds of gold coins will suddenly be taken away by [-]%. How can he not feel distressed? "If you insist on higher business taxes, then I am withdrawing from this meeting and will not honor any treaty associated with this meeting."

The lively meeting room fell silent for a moment, and the businessmen began to make eye contact. Most of them showed a clever mentality. They wanted to see how the city lord, whom Salcomo called the future star, would resolve the situation. this crisis.

Ren stood up and walked quietly, walked behind the businessman, and put his hands on his shoulders, "Do you know? This is the first objection I have received since I came to Ortrenburg."

The businessman didn't look back, and said with a sneer: "Then there may be more in the future!"

Ren chuckled and looked at all the businessmen in the conference room, "Of course, more people will oppose me in the future, but this is Ortrenburg, my Ortrenburg!"

"I'm going to get out of here and go somewhere else!"

Ren patted him on the shoulder, "You don't have to go anywhere!"

Just when the businessman was about to sneer, he saw surprise and disbelief in other people's eyes, as well as a trace of shock and resistance.Before he could react, Ren grinned grimly and grabbed the silver paper knife in his palm on the table, grabbed his short hair forcefully, forced him to raise his head, and then stabbed hard into his eyes.The sharp and sharp paper knife penetrated into the man's eyeballs and into his head almost without any hindrance.Blood spattered on the table in front of him, staining the white letter paper red.

His body softened, he fell forward, and his head slammed into the table with a bang, and the remaining half of the paper knife handle was also shot in, and the tip of the knife penetrated through the few hairs on the back of his head come out.

Ren seemed to have done a trivial thing. He took out a white silk handkerchief, wiped the thick blood on his right hand, and then threw it on the ground. Anyone object?"

The air froze, and no one dared to be born, even breathing cautiously and panting slightly, Ren nodded, "Then let me explain in detail..."
