I Started The Industrial Revolution In Another World

"Yeah, you still treat us as human beings!"

"Originally, our taxes are heavy, and we are barely able to survive. If we have to increase taxes this month, then we will not be able to live at all!"

The tax was just increased a few days ago. If it is increased now, I am afraid it will really stir up civil uprisings and cause rebellion!

Tens of thousands of people in the square were furious. They shouted loudly, and some even seemed very excited. Gu Yuan believed that if he really said the words of tax increase, there would really be a rebellion.

But today, he didn't come here to raise taxes.

"quiet!"

The ancient Genichi roared.

Hundreds of knights around shouted in unison, and the sheathed swords in their hands slammed on the ground, making a cacophony of noises.

Constantly reverberating in this square space!

For a moment, the voices of hundreds of knights overwhelmed the tens of thousands of people!

"Dear citizens of Ross, when did I say that taxes will be raised."

Gu Yuan stood on the high platform, his eyes constantly scanning the restless elements among the citizens below.

"I declare that you will be exempted from all taxes this year!!"

Gu Yuan's words instantly silenced all the angry people.

Because of the special structure of the square, and because Gu Yuan himself has the strength of a knight, Gu Yuan's words were clearly heard by everyone.

"What..."

"I heard that right..."

A citizen was stunned, and he stared blankly at his friend next to him.

"The king not only does not raise taxes, but also gives us tax exemption?!"

"real or fake!"

"this..."

Tens of thousands of people looked at each other and whispered to each other.

Not only the people were stunned, but even the knights and soldiers guarding the side were also stunned.

duty free! ?

They also suspect that their ears have misheard.

Originally, these knights and soldiers were all nervous, and they were ready to suppress the rebellion.

Some soldiers are even ready to rebel with the people if Gu Yuan speaks out about tax increases.

"You heard me right. Not only will I not raise taxes, but I will also exempt you from all taxes this year. Not only this year, but tomorrow's taxes will also be unprecedentedly light!"

Gu Yuan stood in front of tens of thousands of people, with his hands behind his back.

No wonder the country of Ross is weak and small. When the previous kings of the country of Ross were around, the tax burden on the shoulders of the people was not light.

There is also some aristocratic exploitation.

But now because of the war, everyone thinks that when the Ross Congress fell, all the nobles in the country fled, leaving only Gu Yuan who had just ascended the throne and some knights who were loyal to the royal family.

After reading the domestic tax reports, Gu Yuan even thought it was miraculous that the rebellion hadn't happened yet.

However, seventy-eight out of ten of the taxes have only been added recently, and if it is delayed for a while, there will really be a civil uprising.

Of course Gu Yuan wants to stop these things.

Gu Yuan wants to carry out reforms, thorough reforms!

The first thing to do is to start with taxes.

And if there is no taxation, where will the money for state support come from?

Gu Yuan has his own way, the lack of money in Los Angeles does not mean that other countries have no money!

There are so many countries in the world, and there is no shortage of rich countries.

They are Gu Yuan's targets, but the Nord Kingdom is the first to bear the brunt!

"Not only do I want to be exempt from taxes, but I also want to announce that I will cut off all the privileges of the nobility! Only one false title will be left, and there will be no nobles in our country of Ross except the king!"

Gu Yuan dropped another bombshell!

"What!"

"How can this be!"

"Exempt all the privileges of the nobles, that is to say, there will be no noble masters in the future?"

"What does His Majesty want?"

"No, so we will never be exploited by nobles again?! No longer have to endure the exploitation of nobles."

It was like dropping a bomb in a pool of stagnant water, and the water surged suddenly.

Countless citizens whispered to each other, they didn't understand what Gu Yuan wanted to do at all.

The reason why Gu Yuan wanted to do this was because apart from him, the king, there were indeed no other nobles in the country, and the other nobles had all run away when only the city of Los was left in the kingdom of Ross.

The remaining knights are of course also nobles, but they belong to the royal family, and they are both prosperous and injurious with the royal family, so this decree will not affect them.

Abandoning such a decree, Gu Yuan is sure to gain a lot of popular support.

[The people's livelihood technology tree is opened, and the popularity value can light up the people's livelihood technology at the people's livelihood technology tree]

[People's livelihood science and technology complement each other with the military science and technology tree. 】

Unlocked a new tech tree?

This wave is not bad!

Gu Yuan was excited.

People's livelihood technology is also crucial, and how many military can be derived from people's livelihood technology.

It can be said that people's livelihood technology and military technology have always complemented each other and influenced each other.

With people's livelihood technology, Gu Yuan can point out more military technology along the way.

[The alternating current has been unlocked, do you want to use the alternating current technology with the power of 20,000 people's hearts? 】

[Alternating current series derivatives related to people's livelihood technology design has been unlocked, do you use 30,000 people's hearts to buy? 】

"Buy!"

Gu Yuan was determined, and he gave the order.

[The purchase is successful, the technology has been cashed in, and 10 technical workers have appeared, and they will be waiting for His Majesty in the palace! 】

"No internal combustion engine..."

Gu Yuan was a little disappointed.

[The internal combustion engine needs steam engine technology to light up, please continue to work hard, Your Majesty. 】

"There would be no internal combustion engine without the internal combustion engine."

Gu Yuan came back to his senses, and what he heard in his ears were the cheers of tens of thousands of people in the square.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live His Majesty the King!"

Countless people shouted loudly, causing people's ears to ring.

Ordinary people at the bottom are like this. Whoever treats them well is the object of their allegiance.

Compared with other countries, is there a king who exempts the people from taxes? No!

Gu Yuan is a special case, the only one!

"Your Majesty, you have abolished all the privileges of the nobility in the country. If it is spread, it may cause dissatisfaction in other countries. After all, the aristocracy is a class that has existed on the mainland for thousands or even tens of thousands of years..."

Next to Gu Yuan, Stephens said with some concern.

"Don't be afraid, what I want to create is a brand new country! In my country, there will be no aristocratic oppression, and the common people will be happy and healthy and live in harmony."

"What I want to change is this world!"

Gu Yuan's heart was full of pride, he waved his hands and replied.

"A brand new country that is free from the oppression of nobles, happy and healthy."

Stephens was stunned. What a great idea this is. Such a country must be great. Can the Kingdom of Ross really reach this level?

"By the way, how about the collection of those resources?"

Gu Yuan asked.

"The arrangement has been made. All kinds of businessmen have been found. Your Majesty, the factory you want to open will start soon. Those businessmen have no distinction between countries, they only have money in their eyes!"

When Stephens said businessmen, he was very disgusted.

"Businessman, go and make arrangements, I want to meet those businessmen."

There was a smile on Gu Yuan's face. Now the country is asking for money. Those businessmen are getting richer and richer. It's time to deal with them.
