Chu Yunge's name had already spread throughout the entire three nations.
Who didn't know? Who didn't know?
Chu Yunge was not only a Imperial Protector Princess of the Great Chu Kingdom, she was also a heroine who had displayed her divine might at the Martial Arts Competition and successfully obtained the title of Alliance Master.
Right now, Chu Yunge was already incomparable to the current him. After becoming the Alliance Master Wu Lin, her name had already spread far and wide, and it was even said that she had quite a good relationship with the City Master of Kang City. But this was not the reason why Chu Yunge became famous.
What made Chu Yunge famous was her arrogant and unreasonable way of doing things.
Adding on the fact that Baili Lan had purposely exaggerated her achievements, it caused her to be known to all in the martial world, and even the entire three kingdoms, as the Evil Woman.
But in actuality, no one knew what heinous matter this so called devil woman Chu Yunge had done.
People only got used to catching people's eye and spreading rumors, treating the Imperial Protector Princess Chu Yunge as a topic of idle banter. It was even more exaggerated that she had become Alliance Master Wu Lin.
However, no matter how famous Chu Yunge's name was, the people sitting in the great hall had only heard of him before.
And now, the Old Master Prefect was holding onto the hands of the Martial Ancestor by his side, announcing to everyone: This is the newly promoted Martial Forest Alliance Head, Chu Yunge.
Of course they would be surprised and not expect it at all.
The rich old men sitting at the same table as Feng Yi were all equally shocked, their mouths agape. They looked at Chu Yunge's men's clothes in astonishment, and could not understand what she meant.
Chu Yunge, who won the title of Martial Lord in the city of Kang, was a woman, but this young man with a shawl on his head and a fan in his hand was clearly a middle-aged man. No matter how you looked at him, he was not a woman.
Everyone was deep in thought, and when they looked at each other, Chu Yunge, who was standing beside Feng Yi, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Since the Lord Prefect has revealed my identity, then I can continue to hide it from everyone. To be honest, my love is for Chu Yunge, who took the position of Alliance Master Wu Lin a few days ago. In other words, the new Alliance Master Wu Lin is also the Imperial Protector Princess with incomparably noble Great Chu Kingdom. "
"Ah — indeed!"
The surrounding shopkeepers were all in an uproar.
"Listen up, it really is a woman's voice. Her voice is so soft and soft, different from when we met earlier."
"That's right, no wonder we met him at the entrance of the hall, I felt that he had a special demeanor, I never expected him to be Princess Chu Yunge!"
"I wonder what matter this Martial Alliance Master Wu Lin has come here to announce. Moreover, how did she know of the Great Liang City's Prefect Zhang?"
For a moment, the hall could clearly hear the chattering of those people.
Hearing the sounds of the discussions, Feng Yi did not move at all, as if he did not hear anything. His face still carried a calm smile, and continued to speak in a clear voice: "This official knows that everyone still has many doubts in their hearts, do not be anxious, do not be impatient, this official will answer them immediately. Firstly, Alliance Head Wu Lin, Chu Yunge, had met this subordinate many years ago. And this time, she came to the Great Liang city to discuss something important with me. In order to understand the situation of the people in the Great Liang city, she disguised herself as a Grand Master. The reason why I gathered everyone here today is to directly tell everyone about the thoughts that Alliance Head Wu Lin has in her heart. "
"Exactly. I have met the Lord Prefect a few years ago, and because of many things that have been enlightened, I have thought of making profits for everyone and benefiting the world. Thus, I have specially come to the Great Liang City from a distance, and want to discuss important matters with the various business owners of the Great Liang City. " Chu Yunge also had a serious face, she changed to her light and clear voice, and continued, neither slow nor slow, "I believe that all of you will enjoy the news that I have brought to you all. Silver is never afraid of too much, is it? "
"Of course. We who are in the business are rich, we have to support ourselves, and we also have to support so many employees. Of course we have to think of ways to earn more silver. Who would mind losing money?" The shopkeeper who thought that it would be a piece of cake sat beside Feng Yi and was the first to speak, "Just that, I wonder what thoughts does Lady Princess have?
"It's not really a brilliant move. It's just an idea that This Seat really wants to implement right now. Everyone knew that the strength of Great Chu Kingdom and Bright Moon Kingdom was also comparable to one another. Moreover, after Baili Lan ascended the throne, his taxes were increasing every year. In every industry and industry, there was almost no room for breathing. I also know that you are all the leading big bosses in all kinds of industries, so you don't need to mention earning money. "But …"
Chu Yunge's gaze suddenly became cold, her gaze sweeping past everyone who was present, and continued: "Now that the taxes are so heavy, even the farmers who live in important areas have to pay a lot of exorbitant taxes, working hard all year round, and not only do they have to pay a few money, they even have to pay such heavy taxes, why would they have to pay extra silver to buy things to spend on?"
"That is to say, the business is getting harder and harder to do now, and the people who buy things are also not as good as before." The big bosses all agreed and nodded at each other.
Since that's the case, then I will not speak of any other lies. As for the current situation within the Bright Moon Kingdom, you all should be more clear of it than I am. What I want to tell everyone about is that in order to do business within the Bright Moon Kingdom, the expenses will become increasingly large. However, the cost of purchasing and hiring helpers will not decrease, which will cause everyone's earnings to be compressed. If this went on, sooner or later, there would be a bit of a need to cut back on expenses and manpower. However, when people go higher and the water flows lower, rather than the time when everyone's business size will be reduced, why not choose a better place now and start a new life? I believe that with everyone's ability to do business, you will definitely be able to rebuild your glory. "
"Lady Princess, do you mean to say that you want us people to leave the Bright Moon Kingdom and head to the other two nations to do business?" The merchant's brain worked very quickly, and immediately understood the meaning of Chu Yunge's words.
"This storekeeper Qian is really clear-headed. Not bad, that's what I meant." Chu Yunge directly admitted it.
However, at the other table, Manager Qian looked hesitant. He frowned and said, "But, although Lady Princess's suggestion is not bad, there are still a lot of questions."
"Oh? Is that so? If you have any questions, please enlighten me, Shopkeeper Qian. I will definitely explain it in detail for you. " Chu Yunge had expected someone to raise a question as she calmly looked at Shopkeeper Qian.
"My question is, I am the head storekeeper of the silks, and it takes time and effort for the silks to go from the warehouse, to the dyeing workshop, and to hire an embroidery lady. If they had moved away from the Bright Moon Kingdom and were not very familiar with the lay of the lands of the other two countries, it would inevitably take them half a year or even a year to find a good place to reopen. After opening the store, it was inevitable that the tax would be paid to the country. However, since this new store was open for business and the capital had yet to be earned, how could they afford to pay tax to the country? I'm afraid that at that time, even if we move out of Bright Moon Kingdom, business will not be in good shape. He might even be able to make ends meet. "As businessmen, why should we close down our current stores? Why should we travel a thousand miles to take on the risk?"
When he said this, the other bosses immediately agreed, "That's right, it's not easy for us to take care of things now. If we close our doors and go somewhere else to reopen, we can't guarantee that our business will be better than it is now."
"That's right, we don't dare to easily close the door and move the land."
"All the bosses are people with tens of years of business experience, how can they not have this little bit of courage? Besides, who said you had to pay taxes in other countries? Right now, not only is I the Alliance Master Wu Lin, I am also the only favoured Grand Princess from Great Chu Kingdom. Before I came here, I had already discussed everything with royal father, royal father has already agreed, as long as you business people are willing to come to my Great Chu Kingdom to do business, I will treat you well! "
Chu Yunge said in a calm and composed manner, waiting for the doubts in the hearts of merchants to be completely let loose, before calmly explaining: "I naturally know that having to travel a long distance already makes things difficult for you, and makes it even more difficult for you to find your own shops to do business. So, as long as you leave before the end of this month, all shopkeepers and shopkeepers who wish to do business in the capital of the Great Chu Kingdom will be exempt from paying taxes for ten years! Within ten years, there would be no need to pay any taxes, and everyone would have to prepare their own shop ahead of time. This was definitely a bustling area in the city.
Not only that, as long as you are interested in going to a shop, I will issue you a new system of banknotes. This system of banknotes is called 'bonds'. The officials were responsible for issuing the banknotes, and the banknotes were printed with the amount of money and the names of the various shops. If the commoners spent money on such banknotes, they would be able to reap great rewards in ten years. This is the concept of bonds. In other words, even if you big bosses were to do business at our Great Chu Kingdom, you don't have to worry about the money to buy or sell your bonds. After the bonds are issued, the common folk will believe you all that the big bosses' reputation and the government's guarantee will allow them to buy or sell these bonds, so the money used to buy these bonds will naturally be in your hands.
"What?" He had never seen banknotes like this before. This is unheard-of. " Before Chu Yunge had finished speaking, the hall was once again filled with even more lively discussions.
"Then how is the bond priced? In the next ten years, how much will we have to pay back to the people?" The sounds of discussion were mixed with questions that were itching to try.
Chu Yunge squinted, a smile sweeping past her eyes. As expected, her guess was not wrong. It was the instinct of all merchants to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
In the business world, there were very few people who were careless. As long as they could earn money, they would go wherever the country's spirit was.
As long as she gave a condition that was ten times more tempting than Bright Moon Kingdom, those merchants would naturally want to leave and go do business in Great Chu Kingdom.
If Bright Moon Kingdom could not bring them a rich profit, sooner or later, when they leave, it would be their turn. However, they needed a very good opportunity to lead the way with the first person who dared to eat crabs.
