Outworld: Rise of an Industrial Empire

In the city lord's room, the city lord of Duotu Port was lying on the rocking chair sold by the Su Group with a sad face.

There was a knock at the door, and the city lord of Dotu Harbor responded weakly.

"Your Highness, the people from the Su Group are here..."The

person who came in hurriedly walked up to the city lord of Duotu Port and said.

"Hey.... Should come or come, I knew that Su Zheng's turtle egg would definitely make more requests, what did he want this time?"

There were a total of 1,500 thousand regular troops and 1,000 auxiliaries in Duotu Port, and 1,000 regular troops and 1,000 auxiliary troops were sent out at that time, which was equivalent to all the main forces of Duotu Port

"He said that he would borrow a few trestles and return them in a few days..." "

What do you mean?" Hearing

this, the city lord of Duotu Harbor was stunned for a moment, and he would pay it back? Su Zheng actually said that he would return the things he 'borrowed'

? What a strange thing!

"They have 20 ships of minerals waiting to be unloaded..."

"Hey, 20 ships? 10 ships came before, and now there are 20 ships? Why do they want so many mines?".

"I don't know, they are frantically purchasing minerals and coal, I roughly estimated, in the past two months, they may have bought no less than 20 million copper coins of minerals and coal..."

If you hadn't offended Su Zheng and hadn't signed those treaties, how much tax would have

to be collected on so many goods! Goods from foreign countries had to pay customs duties, and in addition, the Su Group was nominally an ordinary civilian in Duotu Port, so the minerals could also be levied an additional fee, which was equivalent to at least 15 percent of the value of the goods.

But now, not only is this huge income gone, but even the sum of money that he should have received has been taken away by

Su Zheng! The right to interpret the treaty lies with Su Zheng, so Su Zheng actually used this treaty to get a bug!

Or this was originally a trap set by Su Zheng.

Duotu Port also collects taxes at the rate, and the wages of craftsmen are high, and the city lord of Duotu Port himself should be happy, because the tax of the City Lord's Mansion will also increase, but since the signing of the treaty, the operation of the Su Group will not be able to rectify him.

First of all, when recruiting foreign workers, the employment contract states that the workshop will pay personal tax on its behalf.

But Duotu Port asked the Su Group for this tax, and the Su Group talked about the treaty.

If you go to the craftsmen to collect it, what kind of union do the craftsmen have, and send a representative to talk, and the result is that this representative... It is the general manager of Duotu Port of Su's Group....

Eventually, the port of Dotu began to impose a tax on these artisans.

At this time, these craftsmen directly referred to themselves as residents of Sioux New Town, and announced that they were no longer residents of Port Dotu.

According to the treaty, they were free to live and move around.

In addition, the Su Group also has a riotous operation.

In general, when trading in the trading market, both parties share the transaction tax and other taxes, but the Su Group relies on the bug of tax exemption, and chooses to cover all taxes when trading, regardless of buying and selling, and then does not pay taxes on the grounds of treaties.

After a while, the Su Group has made this a new industry, and the entire transaction of Duotu Port has been handled by a third party, which can save transaction tax.

In the end, the Su Group simply opened a trading market, completely skipping the official trading market of Duotu Port....

Now the city lord of Duotu Port can't say that he is bitter, and he goes to find other city-states, they are even afraid of the previous Tide City, not to mention Su Zheng, who now seems to have the support of the prime minister.

As for going to find the above.... Yu Lover's family seems to have a backstage, and Yu Li's terms are clearly written, although there are some strong words.

In the Xinqiong

Empire, Cole, the chief prime minister of the Imperial Capital Empire, was walking leisurely in the courtyard with another purple-robed middle-aged man.

"That's it, oh yes, Cole, you should be interested in some news about

Suxincheng....""Oh? What's the news?" "

That's right, it is said that there was a conflict between this Suxincheng and Dotu Harbor, and more than 1,600 of the 2,000 soldiers of Duotu Harbor were wiped out!

"Shhhh Could it be... I guessed who

it was..."You mean the magician? Hey, the last time you went there in person, it seems that it was because there was a magician. It's a little strange, but this time they just let the port of Dotu sign the treaty... It seems that this Su Xincheng has no intention of expanding...."

"Forget it, don't worry about that over there, let's be honest, there is a very strong senior sister and a big man in Zhongzhou over there... I don't know exactly what's going on. "

Shhh I see.... By the way, in these two months, a large amount of iron ore and coal has flowed to Port Dotu and Nottingu, which is said to have been sent by a man named Su. What a regiment... acquisition, it is said that behind them is the Count Su Zheng ... The total value of these minerals is more than 30 million! This has led to an increase in the price of iron ore in the whole country. "

Shhhhh So much! Why do they get so many minerals?"

"I don't know... I'm just going to send someone to investigate..."

"Leave them alone, the top priority is the dead woman in the east, and Tm to disgust the labor.

"Hahaha, you and your sister-in-law are not authentic, you two quarreled, and the Daqiong Empire suffered, what kind of thing is this?

Billowing smoke rose in Lingfeng City, and after Li Xin "took power", he made two major decisions, the first was to reduce taxes, cancel many miscellaneous taxes, and only keep personal taxes. The second is to adjust the industries in Lingfeng City, and hand over all the minerals in the territory to the mining companies of the Su Group.

In response to the possible problem of large-scale unemployment, Li Xin also adopted the method of intervention and adjustment by the city lord's government, so that the squeezed manual workers could be transformed into industrial producers.

The city lord's mansion adjusted the market again to appease the handicraft self-employed who were squeezed in the market. Coupled with the drastic reduction in taxes, the commoners are now grateful to Li Xin.

However, all of this was actually controlled by Li Zhen behind the scenes, or the instructions that Su Xincheng was transmitted.

Li Xin was very surprised by these measures, and Li Zhen did not rush to transport them back to Suxincheng after counting the assets of Lingfeng City and the Li family of Lingfeng, but used them to invest in production and improve people's livelihood.

.

After taking control of Lingfeng City, on the one hand, reforms were carried out in Lingfeng City, and on the other hand, the intelligence department conducted a comprehensive study of this operation, including the feelings and gossip of the residents of Lingfeng City, and the gossip and reactions of the surrounding city-states.

Make sure that the next actions are foolproof.

At the same time, a detailed plan for next steps is being planned.
