And now, Chu Yunge already had a candidate who could be the leader in her heart.

The person who had raised the issue of claims must have been very interested in her proposal. Then she would have to conveniently push him aside and let him be the first person to eat crabs.

"This big boss is asking a good question." Chu Yunge's smile revealed a hint of craftiness, his crafty eyes looked at the shopkeeper who was dressed in green, and was considered handsome, and said gently: "Pricing of bonds, is usually only possible after the local authorities and merchants have discussed it with each other. But I am a princess of the Great Chu Kingdom, so I can directly represent the Great Chu Kingdom officials to discuss it with everyone. Take one tael of silver as an example and issue a bond worth one tael of silver. The rule was that the people would return the money ten years later, and they would receive one tael of silver. This was a hundred times more than that.

Merchants could use the money of ordinary citizens to buy bonds to develop their own shops, be it buying, selling, or developing other industries. In other words, he wouldn't have to spend his own money to make a profit. The bonds have a repayment deadline, and before that deadline, the people cannot ask you for money or things. "You can use this money to make money. Ten years from now, with the brains of the merchants here, are you still afraid that you will not be able to make enough money to pay back the bonds?"

The noisy hall immediately quieted down. The businessmen sitting around the wine table looked at each other as they all had their own thoughts.

Chu Yunge knew that she was still lacking a little bit of poise, and now, the benefits were obvious, it was just that they did not completely believe him, that was why they could understand this.

Now, if one of them stood up and waved his arm, the rest of the merchants would agree.

The corner of Chu Yunge's mouth twitched, and she continued to add, "Everyone, there's no harm in thinking about it carefully. Think about it, according to the current tax system of Bright Moon Kingdom, even if you increase the tax on each city by a hundred thousand taels of silver, how much would it be if each of these hundred thousand taels of silver were distributed to each of your merchants? Even if she didn't have ten thousand taels of silver, she would have to pay an additional thousand taels of silver each year, right? But your income may not increase. By that time, the account office will be tight. Do you have any other way to make a living besides cutting back on expenses and cutting down on manpower? Even if it could last for years. And a few years later? By then, the big bosses would not be able to make money. Was she going to see a golden signboard that had been passed down for a hundred years, and the inheritance of his ancestors fall into her hands? When that time comes, how will you face your dead ancestors? Do you want to be the sinner of the ages? "

"This …" Everyone hesitated for a while, but then replied, "Of course we don't want to. With our ancestors' wealth and generations of hard work, we can only achieve great things, how could we let them fall in our hands? If we really close our doors now, we might have to atone for it with our deaths. "

"Since it's like this, why don't you give up your customers and go to the Great Chu Kingdom to try it out? The citizens all have surplus food in their hands and they also have the ability to consume it. When you get there, plus the reputation of these hundred years old shops is still there, everyone will go buy your things due to your reputation.

Moreover, when I get to the Great Chu Kingdom, I will directly divide up a region in the bustling city, and let all the merchants of all walks of life enter it, eliminating ten years of taxes. The road has been paved for you. Now, as long as you are willing to go, I guarantee that your profits will double, and in the future, not only will there be a store in the Great Chu Kingdom, you might even be able to open a branch in the entire three nations. Don't you want to do such a glorious thing? "

Chu Yunge's voice was as clear as jade, it was loud but not ear-piercing, "Everyone, you must make the best use of your time and think it through carefully. The reason for this banquet is to make a list of names and at the end of the month, when you leave, you will all be able to enjoy the benefits I have given you. Time does not wait for me, please quickly think it through. After tonight, if there is no registered merchant, I will automatically give up this good opportunity. Only the merchants who had registered tonight could travel to the Great Chu Kingdom without any worries. My fellow colleagues, we must not lose this opportunity. "

As Chu Yunge's voice fell, Feng Yi, who was standing by the side, also raised his hands and bowed, as he continued to brainwash the merchants who were still deep in thought: "Although this official is an official in Bright Moon Kingdom, in the end, I am still a commoner, and have treated everyone present as my close friends. As a close friend, this official had to say a few words that were out of his mind. The tax revenue from Bright Moon Kingdom was indeed getting heavier and heavier. After the new emperor ascended to the throne, he was ambitious and ambitious, but his ambition was not here. Instead, he looked across the entire three kingdoms.

However, everyone knew that only those who lived in peace and prosperity could make money. If this was a chaotic world, then there would be a bunch of grass bandits and mountain bandits who would make a living. Moreover, the taxes these years were so heavy that the people had already complained. He didn't know when he would get into trouble. Everyone here was a merchant and had to support their families. They had to choose a suitable place to do business. Right now, he couldn't afford to leave any more and more of the Dazhou City. This lowly official has been in the Great Liang City for many years and is only concerned about the lives of everyone here, so I said these words from the bottom of my heart. "

"Even the Prefect said that. It looks like the taxes on Bright Moon Kingdom will get heavier and heavier in the future." Upon hearing that even the Lord Prefect, Feng Yi had spoken, the others immediately revealed panicked expressions.

Another wave of discussions sounded within the hall.

"Looks like we should really act as a backup plan for our own home."

"Brother, you are absolutely right. Although I am only a master of a silk farm, I still need to feed a hundred people. If this business gets more and more difficult, not to mention raising those servants, I'm afraid I won't even be able to support my own wife and children."

"Does that mean we really have to leave this place and test our luck in Bright Moon Kingdom?"

"It's more than just luck? Didn't you hear what Imperial Protector Princess said just now? She said that as long as we could get there, we would be exempt from ten years of taxes and that she had saved us a lot of money. Furthermore, we don't even have to worry about the location of the shop. Furthermore, the princess was talking about some kind of banknote. With that, wouldn't it save me a lot of money to do business? "

"Yeah, yeah."

The hall was filled with the discussions of dozens of people, so Chu Yunge opened her mouth at the appropriate time and confidently added, "Of course, each and every shopkeeper must still have some doubts, they are worried that my words can be counted. Now, I can clearly tell everyone that everything that I say today, when it reaches Great Chu Kingdom, can be confirmed. Right now, not only am I a princess of Great Chu Kingdom, I am also the new Alliance Master of the Martial Forest recommended by Kang City City Master Gong Yue. "If you can't be so disloyal, how can you control so many sects in the martial arts world, how can you order so many heroes to take the position of Martial Forest's Alliance Head?"

"Therefore, every word that I say today is true and will not go back on my word. If I were to lie to all of you, I would be willing to resign as the Martial Arts Alliance Head.

"Alright!"

Just as Chu Yunge had finished speaking, she sat on the table beside him, and the middle aged man with green clothes and wearing a towel took the initiative to stand up, bowing and greeting Chu Yunge: "Martial Arts Alliance Master sure is quick to speak, with these words of yours, I feel at ease! Princess, you have already made a vow, and given such an attractive condition, I, Lu, am willing to take the lead! "

"Thank you for your trust, Manager Lu." Chu Yunge immediately turned her head, looked straight at the azure-dressed man, and said gently: "I wonder what business this shopkeeper is in, what is your shop's name?"

"Thanks to Princess's praise, I, Lu, am just a small businessman who does wine making business. The name of the restaurant is — Wangyou Liquor Shop."

"It's actually the Wangyou Wine Workshop!" Chu Yunge laughed happily, and said with some respect, "I never thought that the shopkeeper would already be the big boss of the Wangyou Wine Workshop when he was young! "My apologies!"

"Has Lady Princess heard of the name of the store?" The middle-aged man opened his eyes in pleasant surprise.

"Of course. Although the Wangyou Wine Workshop is located in the Great Liang City, the wine brewed by your family is well-known throughout the entire three kingdoms. Who doesn't know that your family's specialty, the Gold, is specially given as tribute to the Bright Moon Kingdom Palace? The people from the other two countries are also very fond of it, but unfortunately, its production rate is very low and it has been raised the price by those black-hearted merchants, so many people do not have the chance to enjoy it. "

"I can't believe that my store's reputation has become so well-known. I still have to thank the people for their love and love. Just as you said, our family's wine cellar has an exquisite aroma and exquisite craftsmanship. However, the price is not expensive and the selling price is almost equal to our practical costs, which in itself is a meagre profit. If not for the tribute, we wouldn't have been able to survive until now. "

The light robed man continued with a worried expression, "And now, the taxes continue to increase. The profits of the store are low to begin with, so where would there be so much silver to pay the taxes? I have already wanted to move away from this place, but I don't know where I should go to earn a living. Now that the princess has given such generous preferential treatment, it is only natural that I would be willing to give it my best shot.

"Manager Lu is willing to leave the Great Liang City and come to my Great Chu Kingdom. It is I who should first thank you for your trust!" Chu Yunge very politely bowed and then continued, "After shopkeeper Lu arrives at the capital of the Great Chu Kingdom, he will no longer have any taxes. I believe that you can brew even more delicious and fragrant wine. This way, all the people in this world will have the fortune to enjoy the Prime of Wine. "

When he finished speaking, he immediately turned around and looked at Guan Shan who was standing in the corner of the hall. He softly said: "Guan Shan, the first person on the list to record this shopkeeper Lu's name.

"Yes." Guan Shan, who was standing in the corner, answered with a deep voice. He took out an account book and a brush and quickly wrote down Manager Lu's full name on the table: Lu Changan.
