Eight Thousand Iron Buddha at the Start, Please Make Concessions to the First Emperor!

"..."

The fat and tender venison exuded bursts of meaty aroma as soon as it touched the hot stone wall.

Stone pot barbecue.

In the face of this kind of eating method that has not yet appeared in Da Qin, everyone is very novel.

They all imitated Zhao Tuo's eating method, roasting pieces of venison, dipping it in the unique sauce of Daqin, and serving it with vegetable leaves and garlic grown in His Majesty's palace.

"Crack..."

The crispness of the vegetable leaves and the tenderness of the venison form a strong contrast.

The rich taste experience really opened the eyes of everyone living in Daqin and was amazed.

"Tuo'er, I really admire your thoughts on "eating"."

Ying Zheng took a big mouthful of meat right now, and then took another mouthful of fine wine, Mei's eyes narrowed slightly.

The rest of the crowd nodded in agreement.

Zhao Tuo smiled and said, "What's this, there will be more fun in the future.

"However, it's more than just eating and drinking to call the royal father and all the Aiqings here today."

Seeing Zhao Tuo talking about business, everyone put down the chopsticks and wine glasses in their hands.

"Everyone must be wondering at this time, why did I spend so much money to reward the army with tens of millions of treasury money?"

Wang Ben and the others nodded.

In fact, when Zhao Tuo19 announced it early in the morning, they couldn't figure it out.

Boost morale, they can understand.

But is it really worth it to pay such a huge price?

"Perhaps in the past, this and some money were used as rewards, which was indeed quite a waste."

"But I also said it, and that was in the past. 35

Zhao Tuo took a sip of wine, with excitement in his eyes.

"I received a memorial about the operation status of the official shop under the command of the former Ba family since I received it yesterday."

"Father, gentlemen, do you know how much profit the government-run merchants have made in the past ten days?"

Everyone shook their heads again and again, expressing that they were unclear.

They don't know much about the convenience of merchants, but they know that it should be very profitable.

But asking them to guess exactly how much they earn...it's a bit hard.

"Might as well take a guess." Zhao Tuo smiled with five fingers in the depths.

"This number!

Ying Zheng exchanged glances with everyone, and was the first to say, "Have five million dollars? 35

Five million dollars.

There was joy in everyone's eyes.

Five million in ten days, fifteen million in a month.

The income brought to the national treasury this year has almost caught up with one-tenth of the total tax revenue of Daqin.

Don't look at only one-tenth, how many families in Daqin have tax revenue of more than 100,000 a year?

Even a tenth is not a small number!

However, Zhao Tuo smiled and shook his head.

"Let's go, father, why don't you guess again?"

"This is still less!?" Ying Zheng and everyone present were shocked.

Could it be that……

"Could it be, five... fifty million?"

Even Ying Zheng's voice could not help but tremble slightly.

Of course, it wasn't just Ying Zheng, everyone present looked at Zhao Tuo with undisguised excitement.

Zhao Tuo grinned.

"Yes, fifty million, ten days."

"Fifty million... ten days..." Ying Zheng murmured softly, and in the entire courtyard, everyone fell into sluggishness.

Ten days, fifty million, if this is a year...

This is already the same income as Daqin's tax!!!

How did such a huge amount of revenue come about?

Seemingly guessing what everyone was thinking, Zhao Tuo explained:

"You have also been to Ba's house with me before, so you can probably understand."

"The Ba family has been a merchant in the past, and it has risen again within ten years. The industry spreads over more than 50 counties in Daqin, thousands of counties, and there are more than 2,000 shops? How many merchants and other industries are there?

"These two thousand shops, plus cinnabar minerals and various industries, bring in nearly five million dollars in profits to the national treasury every day."

"Perhaps these merchants are in the hands of the wife, because they need to manage up and down, open up relationships, and all kinds of unnecessary consumption, far from such benefits."

"However, now this is my Daqin official businessman, who would dare to make trouble?"

"It is reasonable to mention that there is so much revenue.

"It's just the profit of Banyue's official business merchants, and I think this is nothing to reward the northern army."

"I don't know about the royal father and all the Aiqings, what do you think this time?" A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Tuo's mouth.

How to see, of course, smiling and squinting!

After hearing Zhao Tuo's explanation, everyone became excited at the same time.

rich!

Da Qin is rich!

If you have money, you can do anything!

This is a great thing!

With such a steady stream of income to support, such a reward as today is naturally also reasonable.

Reward! Reward!

"Actually, apart from this, there is another main reason that I haven't said yet.

"Oh? Is there another reason for this reward?" Ying Zheng showed curiosity.

Meng Yi and others also looked at Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo explained: "Giving 20 million yuan to the soldiers is completely different from giving a reward to everyone present.

"Does anyone know where the difference is?"

As soon as the words fell, Meng Tian said aloud: "Your Majesty, at the end of the day, the general thinks that the difference should be how to deal with the money.

"Go on. 99

"If this money is given to all of you present, it will be nothing more than adding some dusty objects to your respective treasuries.

"But if the reward is given to the soldiers, they will entrust the money to be sent home to provide for their living needs, and to put it bluntly, they have to spend it.

Zhao Tuo nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, this is it."

“I once said in Bajia that the more active the market and the economy are, the faster the growth rate will be. 35

"And these 20 million dollars are the first money that I used to stimulate the Daqin market and merchants.

While speaking, Zhao Tuo sandwiched the fried meat into the bowl.

"Besides, the money goes into the market, and there are a few more taxes."

"In the end, it is estimated that half of them will be returned to the treasury again."

"Small costs, big benefits, and several birds with one stone, why not do it?""

After Zhao Tuo finished speaking, everyone was silent.

Even if the meat on the stone wall in front of him is already cooked, he doesn't even know it.

At this moment, they suddenly felt that.

Compared with the emperor, this young majesty is more suitable for business.

It's no wonder that with his help, Ba Qing was able to make a comeback from the weakened Ba family, even better than before...

Just when everyone was silent, Zhao Tuo suddenly spoke again.

"Actually, this time, it was not the main thing for the royal father and you to stay."

"On my side, there are still two important matters that I would like to discuss with the royal father and all of you.

823 just now is not the main thing, there are other things?

Upon hearing this, everyone who was about to pick up chopsticks again sat up straight again.

On the other hand, Zhao Tuo beckoned.

"Come on, show me the map I have prepared! 35

"Here! 99

map?

The crowd watched.

I saw the maid in the palace unfold an unusually detailed map.

"This is the northern region?"

As the defender of the Northern Xinjiang, Meng Tian held back this familiar area at a glance.

Zhao Tuo nodded: "That's right, what I'm going to talk about next has something to do with Beijiang."

"Father, everyone, look at this picture carefully.

Everyone heard the words and looked carefully.

I saw that on this map, in addition to the precise terrain, there were several black marks that I didn't think of.

"Everyone should have noticed, right?

Before Zhao Tuo got up to bring the map, he clicked on the black mark on it and introduced: "These places are all coal mines!""

"coal?

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of doubts.

"You may not have heard of this name, but you must have heard of Black Stone?"

This time, Ying Zheng and the others nodded again and again.

Blackstone they have heard.

There are many places in Daqin who have thought about this charcoal. It looks like a stone on the surface, but it can make a fire, heat, and cook. It is also a rather strange thing.

Seeing that everyone knew, Zhao Tuo cleared his throat and announced:

"I have decided to spend 10 million yuan every month for the mining of these coal mines!"

clang clang...

Hearing Zhao Tuo's words, the wine bottle in Ying Zheng's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

Others are also dumbfounded...
