Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 193 The Voice of Pompeii's House (Part [-])
"Da da da."

At this time, the sound of fingers tapping on the table sounded.Lelouch and the officials turned to look at Luther.

Although Lelouch is the mayor of Pompeii, everyone knows that the only one who can really make the decision is the acting lord in front of him, the next generation of Pompeii knights.

Moreover, the Pompeii family gradually became stronger because of Luther, and the officials also trusted Luther very much.

"You can't let speculators do whatever they want, but you can't stop the middle class, the rich, who really want to live in Pompeii. Let's make a law."

"Pompeii welcomes everyone to come to Pompeii for development, but every house in Pompeii must be occupied by someone. It doesn't matter if they live in it, or the servants live in it for a while. It doesn't matter. If the house is purchased, If there is no occupancy within a month, and the occupancy time does not exceed eight months within a year, then a tax of 50.00% of the house price will be levied on the house.”

Luther said.

The officials thought about it and found that this method was indeed feasible.First of all, this will not stop the middle class who want to really live in Pompeii, as well as the rich.

It is not too difficult to live for eight months a year.

Secondly, those speculators can also get the house, but they must hire someone to live in the house. If it is a servant in their own home, it will bring consumption.

If people were hired to live in Pompeii, that would bring jobs.

If this is not possible, 50.00% of the price of the house is levied as a retaliatory tax.

The most important thing is that in a land with a lord, the lord can specify the law.What Luther said now is the law, and even the king cannot refute it.

"Okay, I will issue an announcement to announce this law. But Luther, this is only a temporary solution to this matter. The more important thing is that we need more manufacturing and create jobs. You have to think about it carefully. gone."

Mr. Mayor took the case and reminded Luther.

"understood."

Luther rubbed his temples, feeling a little tired.

Hey, it's not easy to develop a city.

There is no such thing as a newspaper in this world, but this does not prevent the government from issuing announcements. There are bulletin boards on many streets in Pompeii.

Under the mobilization of Lu Luxiu, this law was officially promulgated, and many employees of the city hall were dispatched to paste it on various bulletin boards.

This incident caused a bit of a stir.

"Damn it, isn't my house bought for nothing?"

In front of a bulletin board, some crowds were crowded.One of them was well dressed, a middle-aged man with a red nose, threw away the handkerchief in his hand, and stomped his feet resentfully.

His name is Albus, and he is a nobleman from the Silver Wing.He has no other skills, but inherited a legacy from his parents, and relying on a little cleverness, he specializes in speculative business.

This time, he took a fancy to the future potential of Pompeii, and bought two villas in the center of Pompeii in one fell swoop, intending to wait for the appreciation.

Waiting for the storm at the hot spring resort.

But apparently this speculation was unsuccessful.Pompeii's town hall, at least, wasn't that easy to deal with.

In order to purchase these two villas, Albus not only spent money, but also paid some taxes.What was placed in front of Albus was, either sell the two villas, and lose taxes in vain.

Or hire someone to help him take care of the villa.

And no matter what choice Albus makes, he needs to continue to pay for Pompeii.The hot spring resort storm still needs to wait for more than ten months, and it may be stillborn.

"I'll sell one and keep the other." Albus made a decision bitterly, and he felt a lot of resentment towards the word Pompeii.

There are not a few speculators like Albus.These people either retreated, or chose to wait and see.Whatever they did, they contributed to the development of Pompeii.

Pompeii's housing prices have also been stabilized.

There is also a part of the middle class who really want to develop in Pompeii, which is quite exciting.

The Alner family is one of them.

The Arna family came in a carriage, accompanied by a coachman, five servants, male and female, and a servant's child.

The Alners are not nobles, they are just rich commoners, middle class.

The male owner of the family, Arna, was originally a small businessman in Sparta City, running an ancestral antique shop, and the business was pretty good.

It's just that following the brutal style of Marquis Parker, Arna became one of the people who fled from Sparta, and the destination of his escape was the recently more prosperous Pompeii.

"The Pompeii family really acted resolutely. They prevented the housing prices from rising." Alna was a middle-aged man with a very ordinary appearance, but he was well dressed, which suited his middle-class status.

"I'm going to buy a house first, and then see if there are any antique shops in the city. If there is no antique shop, we will go back to the old business. If there is already an antique shop, then I would like to find a job in the city hall."

Arna said to his wife.

"You decide."

Arna's wife said.

Pompey successfully prevented an action that would cause great harm to Pompeii, and also made his voice heard.

Within the city, the voice of Pompeii will be the only voice.

Pompeii is the lord here.

please remember.

Unpredictable guys.

But just like what Lelouch said, if Luther didn't do something, Pompeii would die gradually. It would be good if he could survive the hot spring storm.

It's too bad if it doesn't last.

So Luther found his partners.

Luther in a small meeting room in a private villa in Pompeii.Luther sat on the main seat with an extremely serious face.There were three people sitting below, namely Amanda, Alice, and Mr. Sauron.

This Mr. Sauron is Lipton, a fellow of Sauron's family, who was sent by the six families to supervise the financial operation of the Orange Group.

It can also be regarded as the representative of the six families.

It is said that before this, he was quite a shrewd businessman.

Amanda, Mr. Sauron has been staying quietly in Pompeii, and regularly goes to work in the office of the Orange Group. Only Miss Alice, the beautiful eldest daughter of the Baroness, is there.

Has disappeared for a long time and only recently returned to Pompeii.

At this moment, as if the journey was a little tired, she yawned lazily, looked at Luther with blurred eyes and said, "Luther, what did you bring us here for?"

"Didn't you say you want to get a share in the development of the metropolis? Now is the time for you to contribute."

Luther said to the partners seriously.

He is like a greedy poisonous snake, wanting to suck every gold coin from his partners.
