Chapter 1430： Good conscience

"Then what else are you doing here?"

The seemingly simple sentence is homely, but in fact it hides the murderous intent. This is Chen Fan asking everyone, why didn't trust me just now, and now I feel that I am in danger, so I am afraid?

Except for Li Changfeng, all the people present were all human beings. The so-called hearing the words of Chen Fan knew elegant meaning, they just got up and immediately knelt down.

"My lord Haihan, I really couldn't get out of it before, but now that I'm done, this is the only way to come without stopping!"

At this time, everything I said was a lie. What matters is an attitude.

Since Chen Fan didn't order Wei Ming to take people at the first time, it was to give them a chance, a chance to prove himself!

Seeing this situation now, Chen Fan knew that everyone had proved it, and it was time to talk about the topic.

"Presumably you all know that, I and the county magistrate want to mobilize the people to fight the bandits together. It's just that the treasury has been empty in recent years, and your taxes have not been paid for several years, so I said..."

"My lord, I understand, I understand!"

A thin-faced merchant who looked very sly looking up immediately said: "Ten taxes and four, we will go back to raise money immediately, and send it to the treasury tomorrow!"

Chen Fan suddenly smiled when he said this.

Ten tax four, this is the normal tax rate. Chen Fan, the first batch of people to attend the banquet, once told them in person that their tax rate is reduced by 10% and the tax rate is three.

But this tax rate has to be paid back to the people behind, which means that the tax rate for this group of people should be ten tax five!

After three years of tax deficits are insufficient, the tax will be paid in the coming year, and this figure will return to the original ten tax four.

Chen Fan absolutely did not believe that the first batch of businessmen would not tell such important things to the group of people who were kneeling on the ground.

In other words, it's already this time, they are still bargaining with Chen Fan!

Chen Fan didn't speak or respond, so he sat quietly on the chair and looked at everyone with straight eyes.

The corners of his mouth seemed to have a mocking smile, condescendingly looking down at all sentient beings!

Li Changfeng didn't understand what was going on. He only felt that the atmosphere was a bit dry, but Chen Fan didn't let it speak, and he didn't bother to make trouble, so he watched silently.

In this way, the pressure on the businessmen kneeling on the ground can be too great.

Just now, Chen Fan, who was in a good talk, said that if he turned his face, he would turn his face. It means that the next moment he is going to throw the cup as a sign, the sword and axe will move forward.

The face-lift merchant was a little scared, and felt the hateful eyes of the colleagues beside him. He knew that he shouldn't be such a bird.

It's okay now, the situation that had just eased up has now become tense again.

"Big, sir, you are a Shangguan, isn't this tax rate a thing of yours, you... you see how much our tax is appropriate?"

In the face of life and spirit stones, I am afraid that everyone will choose their lives. After all, if the spirit stones are gone, can they earn more.

Besides, in the three years since Li Changfeng took office, the weather in Qiao County has been smooth, and Li Changfeng has never collected taxes, so his pockets have long been bulging.

After all, the bandits have only become rampant in this period of time, and this has left the gang of businessmen in front of them with a lot of time to make money!

Just after the face-lifting monk spoke up, the rest of the people were also worthy of smiling and expressing what they meant. Chen Fan was happy, and the tax rate was raised casually.

As for Chen Fan, a face-lifting monk said: "Now the disaster in Qiao County is approaching, you, as a citizen of Qiao County, are still bargaining with me. Ten taxes and nine taxes have not been discussed!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone's expressions changed wildly, ten tax nine, this is the official forcing the people to rebel, is this not the same as ransacking the house?

But as soon as this thought came out, Chen Fan had already prepared: "As for others, ten taxes and five taxes are enough. We will not forget your help to Qiao County!"

In a short sentence, the businessmen who had previously thought about the four words of government and civil opposition were completely dispelled.

I was even grateful to Chen Fan for the tax rate of only ten and five taxes, good conscience!
