When Mu Biao heard this, his eyes turned and immediately understood what she meant. Miss Mu didn't see a rabbit and didn't show off her eagle. She was afraid that she would donate a lot of food. By that time the government refused to admit it and she would not get any benefits. Wouldn't she be a waste of time?

"Um……"

Mou Biao calmed down for a while and said,

"Let me give me some advice!"

So after this and this, Mu Yourong was overjoyed when she heard this, and stood up and worshiped Yingying.

"Mr. Mou's kindness is something that the little woman never forgets. If she has the chance in the future, she will definitely get double rewards!"

Mou Biao laughed,

"But it's a trivial matter, for you and I, everyone, Miss Mu doesn't have to take it seriously!"

The two of them came down from the rockery with a smile. Mu Yourong went to see the prince, and Mou Biao also went to inspect the house. But Mou Long saw the beautiful man in red standing under the corridor and turned to Mou Biao and said,

"Young Master, that girl Ying'er seems to have been standing in the corridor for a long time..."

Mou Biao raised his eyebrows,

"What does she have to do with me when she stands on her?"

Mou Longdao,

"The little one looked at her eyes, and it seemed something was wrong..."

It was like a girl in the mansion rushing to wash his clothes, and his brother looked envious and jealous on the side. Mou Biao thought about it and laughed,

"How can we guess this woman's thoughts? Don't worry about her!"

You think everyone is our four lotus. If you have something to say, you will never make any trouble!

After saying that, Mou Biao went to inspect himself, Mou Long and Mou Hu looked at each other,

"Brother, what did you see?"

Mou Longdao,

"How come I think this girl Ying'er seems to have taken a fancy to our young master?"

Mou Hu smiled,

"After our young master came out to practice, he became more and more heroic and mature. It's nothing strange for women to like him!"

His words are not nonsense. Now the young master is riding a horse around Kaifeng City. He is a lot of little ladies glaring at him. Although he loves the young master who is powerless, the young master is also very popular with a strong and strong man. Especially when wearing a blistering fish suit, the brothers rode on the high horse and swam across the market. His momentum and the masculinity that can push people to the face are the male spirits that can never be learned by the young master!

Mou Long looked at his brothers and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"You said you... are still so stupid? No wonder Ziwei in the wife's yard looks down on you!"

Ziwei is the big girl in Mrs. Liu's yard. She is very capable and is Mrs. Liu's right-hand man. Mou Hu immediately shouted indignantly,

"How can you say I'm stupid!"

Mou Longdao,

"That's the prince's woman. She fell in love with our prince. That woman is desperate and will also implicate our prince. Is this a good thing? What's your excitement?"

Mou Hu then came back to the smell, glanced at the woman in red, and was slowly turning around and walking towards the inner courtyard, unable to help but twitch.

"I don't know what this woman is crazy about?"

But then again, this woman was not very beautiful, but why did she look so beautiful when walking? She didn't know how to twist her waist, but her butt was her butt. Although her legs were caged in the skirt, why did it make people feel that their legs were quite long?

Sure enough, she is worthy of being the prince’s woman!

When Mou Long saw his brother looking at the figure that was moving away, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"How come... have you taken a fancy to this woman?"

Mou Hu waved his hands repeatedly,

"I don't have that courage!"

Mou Long snorted,

"We must help the young master watch in the future, so we can't let this woman get close to the young master..."

If something goes wrong and the young master offends the prince, they will also be in trouble!

Ying'er, dressed in red, turned around her yard. When the gatekeeper saw that someone was back, she hurriedly welcomed her in.

"Miss Ying'er, you are back!"

Ying'er nodded and entered the inner room. Guizhi took off her cloak and changed into the soft-soled embroidered shoes she wore indoors. She sat in front of the bronze mirror by the window and looked at the people in the bronze mirror carefully. Ying'er used to be a bit beautiful, but she was still a bit rougher, and her skin was not better than those ladies who had been caring carefully since childhood. Now she has been raising her in this Mu Mansion for more than a month. Her skin has become fairer and tenderer, but she is still older and can't compare to Miss Mu's facial features and delicate skin.

"Is it because of this reason that he...he..."

He was kind to Miss Mu, but he ignored me?

Ying'er held her face with her hands and murmured,

"I don't know what she said to him?"

Guizhi, who was standing beside her, didn't know the thoughts of her new master, but she saw the old master talking to the 100-household master, just thought Ying'er wanted to inquire about the news, and then said,

"Miss, I have a godmother serving in the yard in front of me. Why would I ask her to help me inquire?"

His Royal Highness lived in Mu's Mansion with many guards, but the work of serving people was still done by the people of Mu's Mansion.

Ying'er's eyes flashed when she heard this.

"Okay, go, do it well...I have a reward!"

Guizhi went there. When she was having dinner at night, she found out the news. It turned out that the prince was worried about raising food a while ago. The lady of the Mu family asked the prince to issue a notice that as long as the merchants in Kaifeng City and even the entire Henan Prefecture would be exempted from taxes for the coming year in proportion as long as they donate grain to the court.

Guizhidao,

"Your Highness the Crown Prince was very happy to hear Miss Mu's method. I heard... I appreciate Miss Mu very much!"

Ying'er, a civilian woman, didn't understand these things, and said strangely,

"What's the best way?"

Although Guizhi is a girl, she is at least a girl among everyone. She is just a sweeping girl in Miss Mu San’s yard. But she is always influenced by the big mansion like the Mu family, and she knows a lot of inside information. She now answers Ying'er's confusion,

"Miss, there are many tricks here..."

At the beginning of Daqing's independence, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and merchants ranked last. Both the court and the people looked down on merchants very much. They all thought that merchants were not engaged in production, and they bought with their left hand and sold with their right hand, making the difference from it. It was clearly a business that was not a good deal and exploited the honest people's money.

Therefore, the merchants in Daqing have extremely heavy taxes, and often 100% have to collect 40% or 50% of the taxes. The merchants are very dissatisfied with the heavy taxes. They always have to try their best to steal or escape from taxes. There are many ways to avoid taxes. Only one is to invest in a noble family and put their own property in the name of other people's families. This will save a lot of money. However, there are risks in this. As long as the same money is paid, filial piety must be lost in each season. And if you fall down with your backer and confiscate your property, you will also be in trouble.

The most important thing is that no one can curry favor with the nobles. This path is difficult to follow, so most businessmen will choose the most convenient and stable one, which is to bribe the government’s people to set their income at a very low level to reduce the losses of silver.

The merchants initially enjoyed a lot of sweetness because of this, but later they found that once the monthly filial piety to officials at all levels became a routine and became the norm for the entire government, the living conditions of merchants became difficult. The silver was destined to die every month, and it was flowing out like water. It was fine for large merchants to have a strong capital and didn't care about the money, but small and medium-sized merchants could not bear it. Although the 40% tax was less, the filial silver still accounted for 30% by the end of the month, and they still did not dare to get it secretly. When the court had no money, they ordered that they must be collected. The local governments would not take out the silver in their pockets and give it to the national treasury, and they would still cut the leeks back. The injured were the merchants!

In this way, you can only earn 10% if you smile and spend money. In the event of a disaster year, if your business is not good, you must not lose any filial piety in the yamen. It will be a good life and not cost-effective!

Only the appetites of these men in the government are raised by the merchants themselves. They have to swallow their sufferings themselves and dare not say anything at all.

Especially in this year's disaster year, the court will sympathize with the people and reduce agricultural taxes, but commercial taxes will not be reduced at all. Moreover, according to the situation in previous years, farmers cannot pay taxes and the government has no income, so they will increase the taxes of merchants. In this way, even a large family like the Mu family will also complain secretly. Otherwise, why would you give Mu Liancheng the most outstanding daughter to the prince as a maid?

Isn’t it just to rely on the prince and not be controlled by local governments in the future?

In fact, the head court did not know the layers of joints. Doing so clearly means taking all the money that was originally taken back to the treasury and filling it with the pockets of the lower heads. If it were placed in the early years of the founding of the country, Taizu and Taizong were very courageous. If they found such a thing, it would be the Jinyiwei who came to the door with a post and peeled off the human skin. But now the power of the central government is no longer as good as before. I have a secret hatred for such behavior, but I can't do anything about it!

So Miss Mu's method is good, not as vague as before, and let the smart businessmen have a clear letter and exempt the taxes for the coming year. The local governments can give less filial piety, and the court can use the silver that could not be collected in exchange for relief food for the victims. The ones who suffer from the loss are those rats who are chewing the country wildly, but the rats' silver origins are not right, and even if they watch the silver flew away, no one dares to jump out and speak!

Of course, with the knowledge of the little girl Guizhi, she naturally could not see the interests in the officialdom, but she could see the benefits of the businessmen!

Ying'er frowned when she heard this.

"Your Miss Mu is really a smart person..."

I said in my heart,
Chapter completed!
