Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

After the initial desertion, the recruitment hall became lively. Anyone with a good skill in the city thought of trying their luck here. Without him, the people saw that the lowly craftsmen in the past could be hired, and their hearts were itchy, no matter what. , they are all from the village, and no one wants to admit that they are worse than others. Besides, if they can be seen by the recruitment hall, even if they are from the official family, the status of the official family is detached.

Jinyang needs more businessmen to drive economic development, and the most primitive taxation alone is far from enough.

Bingzhou is close to the grassland, and there are many people who risk their lives to trade with the Xianbei people. Although the Xianbei people live in a vast terrain, they can't get some technical products, such as porcelain and tea, which are most needed by the nomads on the grassland. of.

Upon receiving the invitation from the prefecture and shepherd's office, the businessmen in Jinyang were very surprised and pleasantly surprised. Since ancient times, the status of businessmen has been the lowest, and the most important thing for the government is people's livelihood.

Businessmen in this era, even if they are rich, are low-key. Even if they want to be high-profile, they must follow the requirements. Jinluo satin can only be secretly entertained at home.

Looking at the simple-dressed businessman, Lu Bu, who was not aware of it, sighed, why are all the businessmen in Jinyang so poor?

"It is my official's intention to invite you here." Lu Bu looked around at everyone and smiled.

The businessman's eyes were fiery, and when they learned that the one above was the Bingzhou Mu Lu Bu, their mood was even more difficult to calm down.

"There are not a few merchants in Jinyang. The Xianbei people outside the customs need our supplies, and we also need their horses. Before this, the merchants were all doing business in secret, and this official knew it."

There was a lot of discussion below, and they thought that Lu Bu was preparing to settle accounts in the autumn and trade with foreigners. If this crime was investigated, it would be enough for them to drink a pot.

"From now on, all Jinyang merchants must be registered in the register. Every time they trade with foreigners, they must also be registered. Weapons and iron tools are not allowed to be sold. If they are found, they will immediately check their family assets." Lu Bu's voice was a little bit. Chilled, the Xianbei people have wolf ambitions, if they have enough weapons, who knows if they will come up with more ideas.

"The words of your lord are true." The merchants in the field agreed one after another. It is not easy for the transaction with the Xianbei people to come to the light.

"As long as there is a transaction with foreigners, 20% of the tax must be paid." Lu Bu stated the most important purpose.

20% is already very heavy for a businessman. The previous transactions with foreigners were all sneaky, and naturally there was no need to pay taxes. Many people even thought carefully.

With a light cough, Lu Bu said, "Anyone who is found to have traded with foreigners privately will be regarded as collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. Horses that are traded with foreigners can be sold to the prefecture and shepherd's office, and they will be handled by the prefecture and shepherd's office, and cannot be traded privately."

In the face of the coercion and benefits of the State Shepherd's Office, the merchants chose to compromise and established the Jinyang Chamber of Commerce, referred to as Jinshang. All registered businessmen will be sheltered by the State Shepherd's Office, but they must pay taxes according to the amount. Business members should help each other.

Merchants are a disadvantaged group, many of them rely on aristocratic families to live, just like Jinyang merchants, once they go to other counties, they are often oppressed.

Afterwards, everyone elected Li Fan, a highly respected person, as the chairman of the chamber of commerce, responsible for the registration of businessmen.

The establishment of the Chamber of Commerce means that the businessmen of the state will operate within the predetermined track, and their taxes can greatly stimulate the development of the state.

For example, trading with foreigners requires a large amount of porcelain, tea, and cloth, so that more people can find jobs and sources of income.

After everyone left, Lv Bu kept Li Fan behind. The Li family was a big family in Jinyang, and the family was rich. However, the head of the family, Li Fan, had better eyesight and was very interested in a series of actions such as the planning of the city and the prefecture's shepherd's house. He cooperated and learned that there was a shortage of food and grass in the city, so he volunteered to donate thousands of grains of food.

Li Su also mentioned this in front of him.

There are aristocratic families in the city, and Lu Bu does not reject them. As long as these families can follow the rules of the prefecture and shepherd's office, they can ensure that they live very well. Just like this transaction with foreigners, businessmen all over the world know that the oil and water inside is rich and sneaky. Selling, but Lu Bu brought it up on the bright side, and was sheltered by the prefectural shepherd's house. This alone would make the merchants in Jinyang secretly laugh.

"President Li knows this thing?" Lu Bu handed the prepared paper to Li Fan.

"Paper?" Li Fan's eyes lit up, paper is a good thing.

"Exactly, this is the paper produced by Jinyang, called Jin paper, you should take a closer look." Lv Bu was very satisfied with Li Fan's reaction.

Li Fan heard the words, and after watching it carefully, he rubbed the surface of the paper with his hands, but his expression revealed a very satisfied meaning.

After a long time, Li Fan reluctantly put down the paper and said, "This paper is on par with the paper the villain used in Luoyang and Luoyang before, and the surface is even smoother." Although Li Fan really wanted to know what was the quality of this Jin paper How much, but held back.

"Oh, President Li still has this insight, then President Li said, how much does this paper cost?"

Li Fan looked at Lv Bu in disbelief. Paper was something that literati needed, and in the eyes of literati, it was something elegant. If people in the world knew about Lu Bu's words, they would definitely be criticized.

Seeing that Lu Bu didn't look fake, Li Fan said: "The villain is stupid, I don't know what the price should be."

Lu Bu said: "In your opinion, what is the appropriate price?"

After pondering for a while, Li Fan said, "Sir, paper is in short supply. I'm afraid it's hard to measure. If you have five hundred dollars a piece, I'm afraid it will be sold out in no time."

"Five hundred dollars a piece?" Lv Bu was surprised, knowing that five hundred dollars is for the purchase of Wushi grain. With the current production rate of Jinyang Paper Mill, 10,000 pieces per month is not a problem, and the cost of papermaking is indeed extremely low.

"My lord, since Luo Yang was burned by Dong Thief, the papermaking technique has not been known to outsiders. Presumably even if it is a thousand dollars, it is extremely easy to shoot." Li Fan knows a lot about this.

"Okay, I will give you 10,000 copies first, you only need to buy them at the price of 800 yuan each." Lu Bu said.

"Ten thousand pieces? Eight hundred dollars per piece is 8 million dollars, and if you change it into grain, it is 80,000 stone." Li Fan calculated quickly in his heart. As he was old and mature, he naturally saw the profit of the paper, even if it was resold. Go, a thousand dollars is also very easy to sell.

But eight million dollars is not a small amount after all. After thinking for a long time, Li Fan decided to buy it. If this works properly, it will be more profitable than risking his life to trade with foreigners.
