For the people of the four major empires, they don’t know the role of these naval bases at all. In their opinion, naval bases are very important, but they are not enough to trap their hands and feet. One way to come to these naval bases, which is the Cao’s Commercial Firm, is that we will find a solution in the future. Although you are very good at the problem, can you still be so good in the future? Can you still keep it now? We feel it’s impossible for us to be in this state. In such a long history on this continent, many people wanted to overthrow the rule of the four empires, but in the end they didn’t accomplish this. Why? It is because the power of the great empire has been deeply entrenched on this continent, and it is absolutely impossible to come from your temperament. Although you are very good for the time being, will you continue to do this in the future? In the eyes of the senior leaders of the four empires, this is impossible. There have been many forces like Cao’s firm in history. They are all very large, and they are very powerful when they can’t get in here. But later Well, they are not so powerful anymore, and they are slowly beginning to decline. As long as you have a sign of decline, we will definitely seize that opportunity to kill you. The four empires have been archived for so long. The real danger comes from the Warcraft Mountains. In history, a large number of Warcraft have rushed out and killed tens of billions of people on the entire continent. This is what they worry about the most. They worry that the masters in the Warcraft Mountains really don’t want it. Fate rushed out, at that time their danger really came. Besides, there is nothing else to worry them about?

It is a very difficult thing for them to solve the Warcraft Mountains, and it is also an impossible thing. In history, they have not attacked the Warcraft Mountains. They remember that they lost the four empires thousands of years ago. A combined army is called a hundred thousand army, and the number of this hundred thousand army is only one hundred thousand people. Many people will say whether it is possible to solve the warcraft in the Warcraft Mountains with these one hundred thousand people. ? That is simply impossible, but according to one hundred thousand people, it is not an ordinary one hundred thousand people. Many people should know that these are very powerful people. Among them, the lowest level is some 7th-level fighters or 7th-level fighters. Class archer. In addition, the rest of the people are all eighth-level fighters and above. Of course, the largest number of them is the seventh-level warriors, and the number of others is unlikely to be that many. In their opinion, the beasts in the Warcraft Mountains are very powerful, and they will lose a lot of them as long as they come to the beast wave , Cao’s several relatively huge military bases in the Southern Empire are all around the Warcraft Mountains. They all felt that this was a problem in the brains of Cao's firm. Although they all have solid defenses. The defenses of the alchemist are all against people, if they are against these monsters, it is estimated that they will not be so powerful. There will definitely be a lot of things. If there is such a wave of beasts, it is estimated that the military strength of Cao's Commercial Bank will be greatly lost.

In their opinion, it would be a good opportunity to deal with Cao’s House of Business at that time, although Cao’s House of Business is already very powerful in various places, and their army has already reached the four empire counties. The level of the city is now, but what is there? Can it really be possible to occupy a county with those troops? Of course, it does not mean that it is impossible, but it is also in some areas where the ruling power is relatively weak. If it is really some very powerful area, it is impossible, and it is generally in some areas where the ruling force is very strong. They are all directly under the jurisdiction of people within the royal family. It is absolutely impossible for a place like this to fall to Cao's house, because some of the policies currently implemented by Cao's house have already made the upper class of the four empires feel unsuitable. However, ordinary people are very willing. For example, the so-called personal income tax implemented in the area ruled by the Cao’s House of Business. This is also the poll tax implemented here. For them, there is no way to implement this. What, but one problem that makes them uncomfortable is how can this tax be collected according to their own income? This kind of thing has been implemented in the four empires for many years. Many people think that it is only possible at the same level. For example, the current tax rate in the Eastern Empire is whether you are a common man or a wealthy person. Millionaires only need to pay three taels of silver each year. This is the so-called head tax, which is also a very important part of the taxation source of the entire Eastern Empire. This is very important for the super-rich. It’s easy. Three taels of silver a year is not a good thing for ordinary people. They may have just two months of income. Although it is not too serious for them, they are all It’s affordable. They didn’t feel anything wrong with this thing before, but when the tax collection policy of Cao’s Commercial Bank was spread, they still felt a little uncomfortable. Can you do that? The tax collection policy of Cao’s House of Business is like this. People with an annual income of less than ten taels of silver do not basically need to pay taxes. Such people can also receive a part of the relief from Cao’s House of Commerce for free every year, because Cao The people in the home business feel that they need help. This means that low-income earners don’t need to pay taxes at all. As long as they can feed themselves, the government does indeed collect money from you. There is not much money. This group of people account for about 10% of all the people. After all, there are not many poor people, but these people also need to pay taxes in the four empires. The government does not Regardless of whether you will starve to death, this is what you have to do. In addition, there are some taxes stipulated by governments at all levels, which almost account for the five achievements of these people’s annual income. Only they know what life they are living. Every meal can only be something that is not of much use. Good food has never appeared on their table. These people also endured it. After all, they have come here for so many years, but later on, it was different. Why can't our government be like the people in Cao's Commercial Bank? People said, such people don't need it at all. Pay any taxes, because they may have problems even taking care of themselves. If they are allowed to pay taxes, they will simply let them die. This is simply impossible. If they are allowed to do this Things. Yours is wrong. Although these people live at the bottom of society, and no one pays attention to their remarks, this is always a not-so-good phenomenon, if there is a fight with the people of Cao's house in the future. It is estimated that these people may be on the side of Cao's firm. It's all possible.

The second class is the group of people whose income is between ten taels and fifty taels. These people all need to pay taxes ranging from two taels to fifty taels a year. They are all people who have escaped poverty, of course. The people of Cao’s House of Commercial Bank received so many taxes, but they were different from the people of the Four Empires. The people of Cao’s House of Commercial Bank would put up a huge notice board to tell them where the money had gone. Now, even every expenditure is clear. People like them also understand their role in this matter. They are also entitled to the first time they have heard that they are also called taxpayers. In the past, they never felt that they have any rights. These rights are what the officials should do. Of course, people on this planet don’t even know what democracy is, so Li Cong also They won’t give them too much power all at once. If this place is really democratized, there may be a lot of problems, because they didn’t have so many rights before. Let them start to do this later, they won’t be able to, but it’s going to make the whole society ridiculous, but it’s okay to just give them a little bit of power, just as they are now. It feels good. At least I know where my money is going. Many people who came from the notice area of ​​Cao’s house started to yell in their area. Why are there so many people from Cao’s house? Regarding rights, we also pay a lot of water bills every year. Why didn't we let us know where the money went? You must know that the lords of Cao’s house are not the same as you. They eat and drink like ordinary people. There is also a powerful monitoring agency. If there is any evidence against the officials, then It is possible to report directly, and there will be a special person to investigate immediately. The relationship between businessmen and officials is not so good. As long as gift-giving is discovered in the past, it is necessary to start an investigation, if not The so-called power-to-money transaction is okay, but if something goes wrong, this matter will immediately let you know about the terrible supervisory organization. Not only the official position may not be preserved, even the businessman may not have it. What ends up well? Speculators must do it. Why did Li Conghui formulate this policy in the first place? It is because he is also a businessman. He knows very clearly what these businessman fear most, that is, speculators. If all the money in his family is taken away because of one thing, it is estimated that everyone will know If you are uncomfortable, if this is the case, then look for the most uncomfortable thing to do. If this kind of thing can be done well, all of you will be honest. This tax policy is the most convincing. The big merchants in the empire are dissatisfied with the next one. People with more than one hundred silver should be considered rich. The middle is divided into a class of one hundred taels to ten thousand taels, and then ten thousand taels. To the level of one hundred thousand taels of silver, one hundred thousand taels of silver to one million silver, one million silver to ten million silver, ten million silver to hundreds of millions, or more, they need to pay 10% to% of their income every year. Forty unequivocal income, such income makes the rich people feel painful, what a joke, you have to collect 45% of the family property left by my ancestors. Isn’t this a joke? Why don’t you rob? It seems that only the word looting can describe your behavior now. Besides, I really don’t know what to say about you. These people also have According to their own ideas, first of all, this kind of thing killed them.

In fact, this is a good thing for the people of the four empires. The foundation of their rule is not the so-called poor people. The foundation of their rule is the landlord class, and only these people will bring them a lot of benefits. What these people want to protect is also the interests of these people. For a while These people have changed roles. They are government officials when they are dressed in official uniforms, and they are businessmen when they are undressed. It can be said that they are like this now, but they are much better than what they did in the past. Among the big family. The direct descendant never went out to do business. They will all go to some places around to serve as local officials, but some of their brothers and brothers will go to the place where they are employed to do business, and the money they earn will promote this direct child to Go to a higher position, and then it will give the concubine more convenience. Then let the power of the family expand even greater. Such things are normal in many places. If Li Cong occupied their place, would they still have the current life? It can be said that the common people have changed their views, although many people in the government say how terrible the notice area of ​​Cao's house is. However, there will be many people coming from the notice area of ​​Cao’s Commercial Bank, and they did not feel that there is something wrong with the people there. If there is a little difference, the relationship between the government and the people is very strong. Okay, it’s not the same as here. People who don’t obey the government and go up to the mountain to become the mountain king at every turn. The public security situation there is also good. Although the servants here are in charge of public security in this place, But there is only one thing they do every day, and that is to go out and charge a certain amount of security fees with the businessmen outside. If you don’t pay, then this thing will come, some gangsters on the street. They will come to this place to show you some good-looking things. At that time, you will beg these people to collect security fees. This is the situation in the end, and they are also very much in this situation. Helplessly, the adults in the government also know that this is what the servants below should do. After all, the money given to them is really too little. If they don’t let people do something like this, then they are too sorry. Now, just look at their income. It’s really too little. If you don’t let people do such things, then how should you live this life in the future, even if you want people to do things for yourself? It also has to be full, right? I don’t have so much money to give to others, so I naturally have to let people go out and find a way out. The people at Cao’s firm are completely different. Each of them has their own salary, and they all have their own salary. It's a very high salary. For them, such treatment is nothing. They don't care about such a small amount of money. There is no way. Who told Cao's business to use all the taxes on the people's livelihood. Well, it’s natural to do that. It doesn’t matter if the salaries of government workers are higher at all. This is what they are capable of. If you also have such abilities, then there is no problem. Unfortunately, you don’t have any. With this kind of ability, what can we say? You can only be looked down upon by the common people. There is no way for the common people to dislike this. In fact, some middle-class people also feel that their social atmosphere is not very good. After this matter spread, many people thought that Cao’s business was better than theirs. No matter how people from the government promoted this, they felt that Cao’s business was better than theirs. Many of them, although it is impossible to be traitors, but they also feel that if the people from Cao’s house come to occupy here, they will have no resistance. For them, whoever will rule them is It doesn't matter, as long as it can make them live better, and now they have this idea.

The people of the four empires also discovered this matter in time. They also believed that this kind of thought invasion was very serious. They also wanted to solve this problem, but this kind of problem was not formed in a day. To solve this problem quickly, it’s definitely not very realistic. In fact, they don’t know how to solve this problem. For them, it seems that military matters are a bit more serious. In the eyes. When are these common people's affairs considered important, and those rich people's affairs are the most important thing. What can the common people do even if they are noisy? Most people will not behave outrageously. Even if there is a part of it, it doesn’t matter. At most, they just take a few good people to the mountain to be bandits. That doesn’t matter. As long as our people arrive, they will fall apart immediately, for them. People, no matter what happened. It is impossible for them to care about it, because they don't think that the threats of ordinary people will surpass those of Cao's firm. In the future, they will feel that this matter is a little uncomfortable. It is this propaganda war that Li Wei presided over. In fact, sometimes if something like this happened, it would bring a huge blow to the people of the four empires. Sometimes this strike is more powerful than a military strike. This is what these people can't understand. If they can understand what's in front of them, it is estimated that there will be no place for us to mix in in the future. They might not understand things like this. Because of this kind of thing, the people of the four empires felt that something was wrong, but they couldn’t find anything wrong, that’s why. When there was a collision of ideas, another major club of Cao’s House of Business came down again. In the ruled area of ​​Cao’s House of Business, all those who have been registered in the household register of Cao’s House of Business can be the same as before. In any part of the empire, you can enjoy the policy of 15 cents per catty of grain. Of course, there is also a purchase limit. For example, if you eat 300 catties of grain a year, your purchase limit is only It is twice this amount. If the amount exceeds this amount, it will need to be based on a local market price. The Caojia Commercial Bank finally did not allow their grains to be permanently at that price. This seems to some grain merchants everywhere. It was good news, but they soon discovered that the food production on this continent seems to have reached a terrible level, because almost 80% of the large area of ​​arable land is in the hands of Cao's firm. The food in Cao’s house has the best taste. No matter how they make it, it’s impossible for them to make such good food. This kind of thing makes them feel very strange. What is going on here? Why didn't you find such a thing in the past? If our food is so delicious, will the price be lower? In fact, this is impossible, because the other grain merchants produce some inferior grains. After this news came out, people in other regions felt uncomfortable, although the prices in the vast areas were still 15 wen, but if the weather is not so good in the future, what should we do if the price increases? It will cost a few hundred wen every month, but they still feel uncomfortable in their hearts. In other words, this should be the same for all people in the world. Why can those people in Cao's house enjoy it?

They feel very upset about this decision, but the people at Cao’s Commercial Bank will not care about your ideas, because your ideas have nothing to do with us, and it doesn’t matter if you want to buy such cheap food. , It is enough to directly join the household registration of Cao’s Commercial Bank, because the household registration card issued by Cao’s Commercial Bank is green, so this thing is also called a green card, and then there will be a series of welfare, except for this food. In addition to welfare, Li started to build some schools on a large scale from the hundreds of provinces he occupied. There are no schools in this era. All of them are in the form of private schools. The scale is not very large. There is no unified teaching material. It can be said that all of them are supported by the skills of these teachers in this era. Of course, many people also rely on their own luck. If you are lucky, If you are a good gentleman, then you can have a good life in the future, but if the person who teaches you is a fool, then you may miss the most important period of your life, because in the future Your own memory will not be so good, so Li has organized the school since then. There will still be more people in this era. Li Yu also does not have the ability to let all students go to school for free. , It can only make them cheaper. For example, the private school gentlemen outside pay one or two pennies for study fees every month, and they only charge that much for half a year. This is the reason why many people did not study in the past. One or two dollars a month is a big expense. This is enough for a family to consume for a year. In fact, there is not so much money. , It’s all those teachers who think that their knowledge is worth so much money, they will collect so much money. It’s hard to say anything about Li Wei, because this is also a normal thing, and knowledge is in this society. It is absolutely very good, even if he has already paid out a month's salary of twelve taels of silver. But it still only summoned less than 3,000 teachers. This is nothing but a drop in the bucket for the entire school established. It is simply not enough. There is simply a huge gap. There are about thousands of schools established in hundreds of provinces. This is still just established. It may be hundreds of times this number in the future. How can such a small number of teachers be enough, but there are only a few students who have established so many schools. This is something Li never expected. Some of the family members of Cao’s employees are the ones who come most. As for the others, they still don’t believe this, because the old private school teachers have already said it. Some things are simply useless. In the future, it is impossible to get anything in the imperial examinations. What Li Wei wants them to teach is some relatively complete knowledge on the earth, which is definitely not something on this planet. Yes, those things can’t be said to be useless, but for these people, there is really no need to learn. They will not have to be an official in the future, even if they are an official, they are also in the examination. Those who need these things will also throw them away when they finish the exam. There will not be many people watching this thing. They will all feel how useless this thing is. These people have to learn. Everything should be something that is useful to society. Basically, there is no need to learn anything that is not useful to society. These people all understand this. Otherwise, what use do they learn? This has formed a huge confrontation with some of the local private school gentlemen. What has been learned for a whole life is said to be of no use, so I dare not to confront you.

This also gave people from the major empires a way of saying that they were all energetically promoting the problem of reading, saying that the people of Cao's house were simply unpredictable, saying that the set of education they promoted will not be much in the future. What is useful is not useful at all. This is directly a matter of sweeping scholars. Many people really believe this. For their understanding, Li Wei doesn’t know what to say. In fact, this matter is what we are. To help you, we provide people, money and everything to help you live a good life, but in the end, we don’t accept our favors. I really don’t know what you are thinking. If it were you If we are all doing things like this, we really don't know how to do it to you, can we just let you be illiterate for a lifetime? In the former China, there were a lot of illiterate people. If there were more illiterate people, it would be a big obstacle to the progress of the society as a whole. Now that such an opportunity arises, you all are not. Catch it well, and even feel that we are cheating you. I really don’t know what to say to you about this kind of thing. Anyway, what you think in your mind is not the same as what we think. This is the case. , In the future, your matters are up to you to decide. In the past, Li Wei was not a person who withdrew in the face of setbacks, but now the situation is like this. If you really force them If you enter this school to study, those people don't know what they will say. Besides, what do you think you will do with the little graces and benefits you give to others? That is impossible. These people are very clear one by one. They will not abandon the four empires so quickly. For them, although they belong to the Cao family firm now, they will be the Cao family firm in the future. Being exterminated seems to be a very possible thing. Li Yun can't tell them anything about this idea. Who knows what's next? You always say how powerful the people in your Cao's house are, but if the people of the four empires are united, can you not handle it? This is impossible, just like the people of the four empires said, although there have been many people in history who want to deal with the four empires. But in the end, all those people were just corpses, nothing else was left. This is also very possible. The four empires have existed for a long time, even in the Cao’s house. In this area, there are also many people from the Four Great Empires. Although they have a very good relationship with Cao’s House of Business, they are probably the only ones who know this thing in their hearts. , These people are all against the yin. Many employees of Caojia Commercial Bank also look like this. In such a situation, the senior management of Cao's Commercial Bank has nothing to do. After all, people can only decide what people think in their minds. We can't make decisions for them. If we have such a way. This problem may be solved in the future. But now I don't have the ability. People who come to see Cao's house in this showdown still have a lot of benefits. At least many people say that the people in the area of ​​Cao's house have better lives than them. These people don’t care much about other things. What they care about is actually very simple things. Many of them have to do things on their own. Many people don’t understand this thing very much. The teacher basically understands it now.

In any case, although there is no open fire on the entire continent, there are dark fires everywhere. These people are very cautious in doing things one by one. In their opinion, these things today are not so powerful. , But many people are very scared, because they all feel this. This is that the continent now is even more dangerous than when Li Cong was there. In the past, Li Cong was a very good person. Sharp, but it won’t easily create some friction. Alchemist’s current Cao’s helm at Cao’s firm seems to be different. This guy is young and vigorous, if he doesn’t have any great abilities in his hands. There is nothing to worry about, but now he has very strong power in his hands. If this guy does something a little bit, it is a fatal thing. Just like now, the Cao’s army is stronger than ever. Not only did this person have no place to converge, but he became even more intensified. Just when many people felt that Cao’s family members were about to lose because of school matters, the Cao’s family’s military department began to speak, and they all have their own In some ways, these people felt that a lot of things had happened one by one. This guy Li Wei formed ten guards. In fact, the guards already existed before. It is nothing more than a very good ability. That’s the tough troop, but this time it’s different from the previous ones. What these troops are better than others is that they can all be transported by airships. They have their own airships. This matter directly affects the entire continent. The people of Cao’s house are dumbfounded. The largest airship of the Cao’s house can transport more than 3,000 people at a time. Each division has hundreds of such airships to transport their people and equipment. The emperors of the great empire can't sleep anymore. If such an army is thrown directly outside of their capital, what should they do? If you fight, it is estimated that none of your troops will be opponents of others, but if you don’t fight, the result may be surprising in the end. These people all have their own ideas. They Everyone felt that things were not that simple. Why did the people of Cao's House of Business want to form such an army? According to the standards of Cao’s Commercial Bank for Kampot, the price of a super-large airship is more than 45 billion silver. If you know that a division’s army requires hundreds of ships, isn’t this just a means of transportation for a guard division? Do you have more than 500 billion silver? Is such an army too expensive? Soon the military department of Cao’s House of Business issued a message, saying that other people don’t need to think about it. In fact, the people of Cao’s House of Business formed such an army purely for defensive purposes. These troops can be used within two years. They have arrived at any place on the mainland, and they are stationed in ten places on the mainland. These ten places can basically reach any place on the mainland within three months. For this statement, The people of the four empires are even more panicked. There is no safe place on this continent. In the past, if the people of the several empires wanted to fight, it would take at least a year to advance even at full speed. Only time can gather our own army, because this continent is really too big. It is not so easy for UU reading www.uukanshu.com to gather our own army so quickly. Now it is actually It was such a situation. In response to such threats, the people of the other three empires could not do nothing. Their military departments also started their own deductions. At the end, they came to a conclusion that the entire empire The ten most important cities must be stationed with more than tens of millions of troops. Otherwise, they may be quickly killed by the guards of the Cao’s house. Many people are aware of this. This also means These people need to increase their manpower quickly.

Now the armies of the four empires have reached the highest position in history. If they continue to expand their army, some of their domestic labor force may be insufficient. This is an unimaginable thing, but the four empires The emperor still accepted such a terrible thing. Each of these people felt that their seats felt unstable. Each of these people saw clearly. It was not the warcraft in the Warcraft Mountains that threatened them. It’s these guys outside, these Cao’s merchants. They are the ones who threaten us. Without them, it is estimated that there would be no such thing. Now they are already a serious threat to us, so we must To do such a thing, Li Yun hid in the dark and smiled. Why did he release such news? You are really strong now, but there are people in this world who are competing for what you don’t know. When you are all involved When you enter, at that time you will find that there is still a huge gap with Cao's commercial firm. I really don't know what will happen to you at that time? (To be continued...)
