Become the city lord from today
Chapter 172
Can a person who eats five or six silver coins in one meal not be rich? Of course, if you are rich, even the second generation of prodigal nobles will not eat like this, except those big nobles, marquis, and dukes.
Those who dare to eat like this every day must have some background, so they dare to eat like this. Suoluo and other merchants looked at Liu Feng in surprise.
Tori was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at the dishes on the table with complicated eyes. He knew that the dishes in the City Lord's Mansion were even more delicious than these, but he was afraid that what Mr. Liu Feng said was still very humble.
Now, these businessmen thought of the question Liu Feng asked just now, and they realized that they were really poor and couldn't even eat a good meal every day.
The businessmen understood what Liu Feng meant. Compared to the common people, they were certainly rich; but to the nobles and merchants, they were poor.
For example, they couldn't eat the dishes on the table in front of them every meal and every day.
The businessmen present were all thinking about Liu Feng's intentions. He suddenly talked about the topic of wealth and poverty. Could it be that he wanted to show off his wealth?
No, that's definitely not the case. Solo was the first to deny this idea. In his opinion, Liu Feng was not such a low-interest person.
"Lord City Lord, why are there restrictions on the products we can buy in the big market?"A businessman wanted to change the subject and raised the most important issue today.
"Let me ask a question: Who is the biggest beneficiary of transactions in the big market?"Liu Feng raised the corners of his mouth.
"this……"The merchants looked at each other, and they wanted to say: Of course it is you, the city lord.
But then they saw Solo being silent, which instantly made the businessmen raise their minds. Everyone present knew this question.
"The buying and selling in the big market is a kind of welfare that I give to the common people, so I give such a low price."
Liu Feng leaned forward slightly and said calmly,"But now you are a little pushy and you seem to be taking advantage of me?"
The businessmen all lowered their heads. This is a fact. They just took a fancy to this and purchased goods like crazy. After all, they can make a lot of profits by selling them to other places.
"If I raised the price, you might not ask me this question today, but this would be unfair to the civilians in my territory. The purchase restriction is just a matter of helplessness, isn't it? Liu Feng said calmly
"this……"Businessmen, they still have nothing to say. Are they so shameless that they demand that the purchase limit be removed? Only if everyone makes money can they make a profit!
They were just afraid that the next second, they would be kicked out of the door, and they did not dare to say any threatening words, just for fear that the next second, they would be sent to the gallows.
"Moreover, with my financial resources, I might be able to earn more by organizing my own caravans and selling them to other cities."Liu Feng once again stimulated them
"What?"
The merchants were shocked. If they don't sell the goods, they will obviously not make a penny.
"Lord City Lord, if you have any requests, please limit the purchase. We hope the quantity can be larger."
"Yes, we can pay a little more."
In the final analysis, merchants are reluctant to give up meat. The goods in Xiyang City are really cheap. If they are resold, they will make a lot of money."
"Pay taxes. As long as they are within my territory, taxes must be paid on transactions. Liu
Feng said in a deep voice,"As long as you pay the tax, I will not limit the purchase of your goods. I will give you as much as you want.""
Hearing this, Solo understood. He completely understood that what he did before was not to show off his wealth, but to pave the way for tax collection. Either they would pay taxes and then buy goods, or Liu Feng would form a caravan himself and transport the goods. Go out and sell it.
The previous question and answer between rich and poor was basically a way for Liu Feng to show off his financial resources. The underlying meaning was to say that with you and without you, everything would be the same and it would not have much impact on Xiyang City.
Yes, Collecting taxes is Liu Feng's goal. When he said that he assembled caravans to sell goods, he was half deceiving these merchants, and half was true.
The goods sold by the caravans organized by Liu Feng were of high value and high value. Harvest items, such as canned fish, ceramics, etc., rather than the low-value items from the big market
"Lord City Lord, we want to know how you plan to collect this tax?"The businessmen asked seriously, this is related to their pocket income.
"If you buy things in Xiyang City, I won't charge you taxes, but when you leave Xiyang City with the goods, I will charge customs duties."Liu Feng said calmly.
Businessmen all know about tariffs. When they pass through the territory of some city lords, they will check it. They think it is the customs fee. As the saying goes, it is the toll.
"How much do you think we should pay, Lord City Lord?"Businessmen are much more relaxed. They think they have to pay taxes when buying things.
"Based on the measurement of goods, if you have more goods, you will of course have to pay more taxes; of course, a certain quantity will be set, and as long as you do not bring more goods than this quantity within a certain period of time, you will not be charged customs duties."Liu Feng briefly explained
"Tariffs calculated on a per-good basis? ? ?"
The merchants were dumbfounded. Will they have to pay customs duties if they want to take the goods they stocked up to Xiyang City?
"Don’t worry, after paying the customs duties, you will still make money, but not as much as you did at the beginning."Liu Feng said calmly.
As soon as the tariff came out, the relationship between the two was reversed. These businessmen could only make some hard money, but it was a little more profitable than their previous business.
As for stocking up, it is no longer necessary. Before They thought that the more goods they stocked up, the more money they would make. But now that the tariffs have come out, they are worried that if they stock up too much goods, their funds will be stuck.
Behind them, Enri's eyes lit up and she quickly started writing on her notepad. Only now did she see how powerful the young master is. Her frown was easily solved.
The merchant had to pay the customs duty, otherwise the goods would all rot in his hands, while the city lord's palace collected two taxes, both the seller and the buyer.
Of course, first of all, Buyers have a large amount of goods leaving Xiyang City, so there will be taxes. Otherwise, there will be no tax when buying things in Xiyang City. The merchants understand that today is simply a 'Hongmen Banquet'. After they go out, Everyone thought that they would get such a large purchase limit. When the tariffs came out, everyone present would attract fire.
Solo really sighed, are there really such smart and talented people in this world?
Tariffs can perfectly protect the local market, and can Increasing the income of the city lord's palace is basically the best of both worlds.
Solo suddenly felt a little lucky that Liu Feng was not working in the royal capital, otherwise the merchants in the world would have to pay a lot of taxes, such as his caravan
