The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 102 The entry fee of 500 taels blows up Zhu Yuanzhang, Master Ye treats everyone equally!
In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and his party,
Although the back door of the Yanmen county government office is not as arrogant as the front door, it is definitely not stingy. The size of the back door and the luxury of the decoration definitely surpass the front door of the Marquis' mansion.

The administrative and living place of a Qipin county magistrate, the front door is comparable to the gate of the king's mansion, and the back door surpasses the gate of the marquis' mansion?

But just this extravagant back door of the county government is not enough to shock them!
If they saw this scene when they first arrived, they would be shocked or even annoyed by it, but they are all former labor reform prisoners, and they are all people who have seen the world here.

Ye Qing's excessiveness was not enough to shock and annoy them.

What shocked them was that there were at least a hundred wealthy businessmen sitting in line on small stools in front of them, and even when they were shocked, there were still people queuing up.

Judging from the clothes and outfits of these people, one is richer than the other. This rich businessman wears brocade clothes with silver embroidery, and that rich businessman wears brocade clothes with gold embroidery.

There are not only Han merchants wearing Hanfu made in Ming Dynasty, but also many foreign merchants with beautiful eyes, high nose bridges, and sickly white skin, who wear strange clothes.

These foreign boots turned their heads up, not to mention the embroidered patterns on the boots were decorated with gold thread, and they also wore such a big gold ring. The gold ring was decorated with either red and yellow gemstones or large and round pearls.

In addition to those who wear gold rings, there are also those who wear gold necklaces comparable to dog chains.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at their outfits, and then at his own. Except for the dragon robes, which were the best brocade clothes, he felt somewhat shabby.

At the same time, he thought of the scene of these people paying taxes with gold and silver coins in the 'special hall for foreign business travel'.

Also because of thinking of this scene, Zhu Yuanzhang became greedy again when he saw these foreign businessmen who were like gold and silver without money.

While being envious, he also once again approved of Ye Qing's way of earning gold and silver from foreign businessmen.

As soon as he thought of this, he made up his mind, he must see Ye Qing today, and he must clean up his way of earning gold and silver from foreign businessmen.

This Lord Ye has the armament technology that he covets, and the technology that makes real money that he covets, even if it is for these technologies, he feels that he should bear with it.

But the [toll office through the back door] in front of him made him wish he could chop Ye Qing up right now!
"Everyone, don't be chaotic. All line up on a first-come, first-served basis. If someone jumps in the queue, you will be disqualified from going through the back door."

"Please be quiet, I will explain to you the rules of going through the back door!"

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes,
The gatekeeper who promised them at the front gate in the morning and opened a small back gate for them in the afternoon was holding an open cone with amplifying function, shouting at the top of his voice.

"The rules for going through the back door are as follows:"

"First: We charge a report fee for ten people at once, 200 taels per person, which is two hundred guan."

"Han merchants from the Ming Dynasty can all pay with treasure banknotes, color mother merchants from the Ming Dynasty and Mongolian yuan merchants from the Ming Dynasty can use 100 taels of treasure banknotes plus 100 taels of gold and silver equivalents for payment, foreign merchants are not allowed to use treasure banknotes, they must use 200 taels Two silver coins, or 200 taels of gold equivalent to 50 taels of silver."

"In addition, when you pay, please be sure to submit your financial statement. The simpler the better, the best is a sentence, such as 'I brought 1 taels this time, and I want to do business with Mr. Ye'. "

"After we have collected a batch of notification fees and your financial statement, we will report it to Mr. Ye. After seeing it, if Mr. Ye intends to cooperate directly, he will write it on your financial statement. Add the word 'received'."

"Those who receive the reception receipt can follow the second rule of going through the back door!"

"For those who haven't received it, don't be discouraged. Go directly to the purchase market to purchase. Although the price is not that low, you are guaranteed to make money!"

"The second rule of going through the back door is that those who receive the reception receipt need to pay us 300 taels as a guide fee, and a servant girl from the mansion will lead you to meet Master Ye."

"The payment plan of each merchant is the same as the notification fee payment plan, that is, 200 taels becomes 300 taels!"

"Of course, as to whether you can negotiate a business with Mr. Ye, that's up to you."

"Whether the business is negotiated or not, these fees will not be refunded!"

"Okay, I've finished what I have to say. Those who accept this rule can continue to line up. Those who don't accept this rule can do whatever they want!"

After the gatekeeper finished speaking, he put down the opening cone, and immediately asked other gatekeepers for a pot of water, as if his mouth was dry and his throat was sore.

At this moment, the business travelers of all nationalities who lined up immediately exploded.

However, none of them expressed resistance to the rules of going through the back door, and they all regretted that they were not prepared enough.

In such a long queue, a Han merchant from the Ming Dynasty sat on a small stool and said anxiously: "I didn't bring a pen and paper, so what should I do? Brother in front, did you bring a pen and paper?"

"You don't need to bring pens and papers, they have helped to prepare, and will distribute papers and pens when collecting money!"

Somewhere in the line, a Ming businessman patted his thigh and said: "My family has a lot of gold and silver, and I heard that coming here can make a lot of money, but I don't know this rule, and I don't bring so much cash in cash. Silver!"

"Brothers in front, we look similar. Our ancestors 100 years ago should be fellow villagers. Please help me exchange it!"

The foreign Semu businessman in front said in broken Chinese: "Okay, okay, I have a lot of gold coins and silver coins, and there are several boxes in the hotel. The ancestors 100 years ago were brothers from the Ming Dynasty. You can exchange them! "

"."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at these various business travelers who were willing to be slaughtered as pigs, and the shock in his heart had already covered his anger.

He really couldn't figure it out 1 times!
With such an unreasonable rule that is tantamount to stealing money, no one resists?

Not only do you not resist, but you are just regretting that you are not prepared enough?

He, Zhu Yuanzhang, is also a master at manipulating people, but he can only do 'sold them and asked them to count the money'!
Of course, his skill is not used in business, but in politics.

But he can't do this kind of 'sold people, others still regret that they were not sold fast enough'!
When Zhu Yuanzhang caught someone casually, he asked, "What are you doing this for?"

"The notice fee is 200 taels, and the guide fee is 300 taels. There is no guarantee that it will be successful. Why?"

Sitting not far away, a Han merchant from Ming Dynasty just cast a blank glance at Zhu Yuanzhang, who hadn't started queuing yet, and said, "If you ask this question, it shows that you don't know enough about Yanmen County."

"The products in Yanmen County are far better than those in other places, and they are produced in limited quantities. Every commodity has a limited amount in every place. If it is sold out, it will be gone. The supply is absolutely in short supply!"

"As long as we can get a batch of goods, we will definitely make money with our eyes closed, and it will be half as much as buying goods from other places."

"This is still the money earned from buying goods at the Yanmen stock market. If you get the goods directly from Mr. Ye, you will send a car to the industrial park to pick up the goods yourself. That is the ex-factory price!"

"Compared to the money earned by purchasing goods from other places, it is fully doubled!"

"If you are lucky, it will be more than doubled!"

"Think about it, the money you earned by trekking across mountains and rivers twice, you can earn money here once, not to mention going through the back door, even if you kneel down and call daddy, I will do it too!"

"."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang gave the businessman a contemptuous look, and it turned out that the businessman would do anything for profit.

But as soon as he finished despising the businessman, his eyeballs rolled.

"The products produced in Yanmen County are so good and so popular?"

"It's a pity that when we were reform-through-labour prisoners, we never went to the industrial park!"

Thinking of this, he immediately looked at Queen Ma behind him, and then he remembered that his sister went to the industrial park!
He hurried to Empress Ma and asked, "Sister, are the things produced in the industrial park really so good?"

After hearing such a question, Empress Ma also realized that during the nights during the labor reform period, they talked about Zhu Yuanzhang's experience, and they talked very little about her experience.

There is no other reason,

Just because the industrial park and the arsenal are definitely not as eye-catching as the arsenal.

Besides, Zhu Yuanzhang caused troubles every day. Not only did she not cause troubles, but she was also treated like a guest of honor among the prisoners in the labor camp.

After Empress Ma quickly explained it in concise words, Zhu Yuanzhang understood it all at once.

To put it simply, Ye Qing, relying on his reputation of "made in Yanmen", already has the qualifications to slaughter people like pigs, and others are afraid that they will not be slaughtered.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang once again took a look at these business travelers of various nationalities who were actively queuing up, with extremely complicated eyes.

But it is also obvious that there is not much anger in his eyes now, but more admiration and envy.

It has to be said that this is also Ye Qing's ability, and it is also an ability that Zhu Yuanzhang does not have.

But he still can't figure it out!
What about equal treatment?

The same is 200 taels, why are the payment methods of Han merchants of Ming Dynasty, color mothers of Ming Dynasty, Mongolian and Yuan merchants of Ming Dynasty, and foreign merchants different?

In fact, foreign businessmen can only pay real money, which he basically agrees with.

It's nothing more than relying on his advantages to earn real money from others!

Although in his perception, this has violated their principle of 'equal treatment', but he also thinks it's okay.

However, the Han merchants of the Ming Dynasty, the Sebeng merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and the Mongolian and Yuan merchants of the Ming Dynasty required a completely different payment method, and he absolutely did not approve of it.

Yes,

In order to assimilate these Semuren and Mengyuan people who settled in the Central Plains because of the Yuan Dynasty, he promulgated a decree [Mengyuan and Semuren clans, who live in Huaxia, are allowed to marry with Huaxia people, and are not allowed to marry themselves.Violators, both men and women will be confiscated into officials and become slaves. 】

But this is enough to prove that they are legal citizens of Ming Dynasty!
They are all citizens of the Ming Dynasty, and they need a different payment method, which is contrary to Zhu Yuanzhang's "equal treatment" in his heart!
Thinking of this, his face immediately darkened again!
But at this very moment,

The gatekeeper who promised them at the main gate in the morning and helped them walk through the small back gate in the afternoon saw Zhu Yuanzhang.

"What are you still doing here?"

"If you don't line up again, you don't even want to see Mr. Ye today!"

"Let me tell you, after Mr. Ye applied for the time, there will be no one to see!".
