For business, Gould has his own understanding.
He informed Rurik of his opinion.
"All kinds of businessmen came to Roseburg to do business. In fact, everyone felt that they brought the goods from outside to the Ross people, and at the same time, they could also take away the goods from Roseburg and sell them to distant places. Most of the merchants think this way, if Without business people, the Roths can only rely on themselves. Therefore, many people feel that they are kind to the Roths."
"That's it? It's ridiculous." Rurik has seen him a long time ago. Could it be the attitude of many guest merchants? Could it be that they feel that if they don't come, the Ross people will be poor?
Rurik said angrily: "In my opinion, they are clearly staring at our leather profits, including you. It is we who gave the merchants the possibility of making profits, so how can they become unilateral for us by the merchants? Conveying benefits."
Gould shrugged: "Perhaps, some people think that this is mutually beneficial. Even so, the merchants and the Ruths themselves have nothing to do with each other."
Do you really owe nothing to each other?
Rurik's attitude was naturally completely negative. He narrowed his eyes and declared that it was not simple.
He revealed in a calm and serious response: "You actually think that the tax plan I proposed is unreasonable and redundant? And it will harm the interests of business people?"
Gould didn't answer rashly, and this silence was understood by Rurik as acquiescence.
"That's good. If that's the case, why don't I organize a trade team myself? I can form a caravan under my orders. Why rely on those traveling merchants? I can definitely be a merchant."
Even if he is a child, he has shown strong action and perseverance for several years. Gould, who was silent, couldn't sit still at all, he spied Rurik's intention to abandon him.
Even if Gould had lofty ambitions, he knew that his wealth came from the gift of this child. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was true.
The old guy hurriedly straightened his back and ordered the servant waiting in the chamber to leave.
Gould hurriedly explained: "I will support any of your decisions. I am already a Rusman. How can I not support the leader? I am your loyal servant. It is just that I have to tell you that this is the common belief."
"I didn't aim at you." Rurik replied straightforwardly.
Gould let out a sigh of relief.
After all, Gould's words were not temporary nonsense, and Rurik took this opportunity to feel comfortable thinking about it.
Indeed, if a country aspires to become strong, she will naturally find ways to attract investment in order to form its own economy and strength. Businessmen are profit-seeking, and collecting commercial taxes is also an important financial cornerstone for a country's proud and stable operation.
Reducing taxes to zero within three to five years is the key to attracting businessmen to invest. After time has passed, taxation is necessary, and with this very considerable taxation, a large fiscal surplus can be used by a country to use this money to better build its national economy and people's livelihood according to its own wishes.
Just now, Gould specifically mentioned the mighty Mellaren tribe, which is also regularly collecting a fortune from all foreign merchants. Specifically, it is a sales point built by other tribes in the "core area" set by the leader, and a tribute must be paid to the leader.
Gould called it a tax, and Rurik was more appropriately called land rent.
After thinking about it for a while, Rurik explained: "Even so, I still have to collect taxes. I am very different from the Mälaren people! You have just stated that you are in the core territory of Mälaren. To do business, you must give tribute to the leader. However, when you run an island on the lake, many merchants do the same thing, so you don’t have to pay any tribute.
The tax you understand is not tax at all, but rent.
You said that the two Russian merchants do not owe or benefit each other. In my opinion, as a leader, I can act according to the methods of the Merlaren and collect their land rent.
We Rus have provided a stable business environment for foreign businessmen for many years. The businessmen built residential warehouses in my territory, which completely squeezed our Russ own living space. It stands to reason that I should collect a sum of money to compensate my people.
But I will not take things too extreme. Gould, would you like to hear my in-depth thoughts? "
Gould's interest was completely mobilized, he couldn't think that the kid was witty words.
To be honest, this child is already exercising the power of the leader. If he wants to make money, he can lead a group of warriors and force the merchants to take money. It's not that the leader of the Mellaren tribe has never done anything like this.
Gould, who was once young and weak, couldn't forget the experience of being searched by that leader.
"Go ahead." Gould replied quickly.
"Then listen." Rurrik raised his chest: "I will persuade or order all the merchants who live in my Roseburg to come up with a sum of money obediently. Just before this year's trade season, I Business taxes in this area must be collected. Gould, you are a big businessman and I need your support."
"Yes! My family will chase you forever."
Rurik sullied his mouth and shook his head: "I need your real support, not verbal agreement. You have to support my opinion and really help me to do it."
"So, what should I do?"
"Do you know my dream? Yes, you do. I want to make my tribe stronger than ever. If you think that you just have a strong military strength, and thousands of fighters are even strong, you would be wrong. wrong.
I want to make the tribe really strong, so I need a lot of money.
I don't have any intention of just caring for my own enjoyment, my money is for the whole tribe after all.
My father Otto is getting older, and now he is more willing to chat with those uncles and is more addicted to alcohol. He asked me to do many things and promised that he would ratify my deeds. I am now the leader of the tribe! Even if you haven't experienced the final ceremony.
Do you know my dream?
I hope that in my clan, all the boys and girls in Ross will not go hungry or be frozen to death. All men can marry at least one wife, and all women can be protected by their husbands. All families will have enough food and clothing, so they will not maliciously abandon their daughters and reluctantly raise their sons.
The Ross people will continue to conquer. Those who surrender to me, I will let them have enough food and clothes, and I will let them live quietly so that they will not rebel.
If the Ross people want to continue their revenge, I need more excellent weapons, more fighters, and better ships.
In order to achieve my dream, I need a lot of money and a lot of materials! "
Although Rurik was eloquent, his immature childlike voice could be described as pure and pure, and it was these words that were really shocking.
Gould marveled at Rurik's dream, and Jeflo couldn't believe that a Rusman could say such a thing.
Because of surprise, Gould was sweating all over. He was quiet for a while before slowly responding: "Your words remind me of the goddess Freya. That is the most merciful goddess, the mother of all, she It is the embodiment of love and care."
"You... mean I'm like Freya? I'm a man."
Gould shook his head and put on a smile to relax the serious atmosphere: "But you can't deny that you were a very beautiful boy before you grew your beard. Listen, since you can get Odin's blessing, you How can I be sure that I have not received Freya's blessing?
Your great ideal is like the ideal of a goddess.
Do not! I even think that you may also be blessed by Frey. I can be sure that you have already received Thor's blessing. "
What is flattery? This is flattery!
The Ross people believe in a wide variety of gods. Most men believe in Odin, and most women feel that it is good for them to believe in goddesses like Freya and Friga.
Gould chuckled: "Rurik, if you wear the priest's plain white gown, you stretch your hair and put on a flower crown. You are standing in the altar, no one will think you are a boy.
But you are indeed a boy, a benevolent, great, brave, and beloved by the entire Asgardian gods. Yes, you will become a very good leader, that is, your dreams do require a lot of money to support. "
"I don't want to listen to your flattery." Rurik continued in a good mood: "I'm trying to earn wealth. I hope to get a lot of food, leather, flax, and iron ore more than silver coins. When I earn silver coins, I don’t melt to make tableware. When I’m extremely hungry, silver coins are useless. I earn silver coins in exchange for more supplies to make my people stronger and better lives. Therefore, businessmen must take money. Come!"
"Then do it! This is my true word. I will do my best to help you realize your dream. Maybe only in this way can my soul get closer to God. So let us discuss a reality, how much do you want to charge? Taxes? I have to vilify and say that if the business people feel that most of the money they make is taxed, they will not come to Roseburg. If the tax is too little, I don’t think you will be satisfied."
Rurik replied readily: "You don't need to worry about this, I have already thought of it. Those merchants, every household has to pay me fifty silver coins. I think this tax is appropriate."
Gould was shocked. He actually wanted to say that this is a bit more than taxes. After all, a large number of businessmen are small businesses. For so many years, they have followed the big businessmen to eat leftovers. How much profit can those people make?
Rurik also paused and emphasized: "You alone! Gould, you have to pay 10,000 silver coins in taxes this year."
"Ah?!" Gould was really taken aback: "So many? Am I your sheep?! You..."
Rurik turned his face on the spot and put on a threatening look: "Too much? You are a Ross native, you must obey the leader of me. You should understand that you are a different person! We Ross natives lack professional businessmen. Now, you are a big businessman I trust. Compared with those traveling merchants, it is as if you are a warrior in chain mail. Those people are just fools with only a fig leaf."
Gould began to hesitate, no one knew what he was talking about, and Rurik knew that this guy must be upset.
Yes, let a big businessman pay a heavy tax, how can a businessman willingly? What's more, there will be rebellion, and more will be cleaned up and ran away.
Rurik pointed out the pros and cons: "Listen, the huge wealth you are earning now, and you have become a rich man, is it your personal ability? Don't be stupid! You are relying on me to become rich, without us Ross tribe, how much do you have?!
I need you very much now, and what I need will always be the obedient Gould family. "
Now, Gould's forehead was stretched out in cold sweat, this time he was no longer surprised, but through Rurik's eyes, Gould saw a fierce look. That is the look in the eyes of murder, the look in the eyes of people who have experienced battle.
Two meanings that Gould perceives.
If you refuse or hesitate to cooperate, you will no longer be reused, and Liulique will soon foster new merchants to replace him as a distributor of various commodities.
Or, he was imprisoned or removed by the Rus, and his wealth was ruined.
Gould can only think about the worst possible first. He weighed it and decided to fully agree with it.
"Okay! Ten thousand silver coins, I will take them out."
Rurik could clearly detect the old guy's sigh, and he thought about it. How could a businessman suddenly spit out 10,000 silver coins?
"Don't be sad, do you feel that you have lost a lot? I don't think you will suffer from gains or losses because of 10,000 silver coins. You will receive more support from me because of your active cooperation."
Gould reluctantly begged for mercy; "Yes, my family is your loyal servant."
"Very good. Today I want you to take out 10,000 silver coins. Or, you can directly pay for the grain. I know that you still have a lot of grain on hand that has not been sold. You don't need to continue trying to bid up. The price of food is still at the usual market price. A silver coin is exchanged for ten pounds. You now prepare one hundred thousand pounds for me. I forbid you to sell this food to anyone."
Gould knew that Rurik also had a large amount of food in his hands. What is very amazing is that the child's control of his own food is simply to distribute to his men for food. I am afraid that this child has no intention of selling food for profit at all, which is really strange.
Based on this, how did Gould think that the purpose of Rurik’s hoarding of grain is to support his subordinates. This is to ensure high-calorie grains to maintain the daily calorie consumption of children and mercenaries, and also to support the daily calorie consumption of children and mercenaries. Use this as a temptation to force them to rely more on the leader's support. In order to have a full meal every day, they must remain loyal.
There is also a very special point. They use a bag of dried grains as a reward for labor, and Lurik confesses the work of logging, construction and even tailoring to the tribe. They are extremely motivated.
After all, according to Rurik's consumption method, the grains he had on hand did not last until the beginning of May. Therefore, during this period, the proportion of fish and seal meat in the children's diet became more and more important.
Gould's grains at hand were no more than 100,000 pounds. Since Rurik had requested, he had to immediately hand over all the inventory, leaving only his family's rations.
Gould made a promise to pay the tax immediately, and Rurik immediately gave encouraging feedback.
"I need your cooperation very much. I very much need you, the top big businessman, to set an example! When I start to collect taxes, I will announce to those small businessmen. You! Gould! Your family takes the lead. The most taxes are paid, so other businessmen have no reason to refuse to pay taxes.
As a feedback to you, I will find more profit margins for you, even if you can only get the average profit in the future, you can also make a fortune.
Listen, you are just a big businessman, and a big businessman who has risen up relying on my merits. You have too much money now, but your family is destined to only depend on me. You can be a wealthy person with peace of mind. Your family has been living in happiness and abundance, don't think about anything else. Your family is fully protected by me, and all risks are borne by me. "
Gould noticed that Rurik had missed his words. It was obvious that Rurik was collecting business taxes. The kid proposed a novel idea, but he couldn't figure out the amount of tax.
This child must take half of his profits for taxation in the future.
"Okay! If my family has one hundred thousand silver coins a year in pure profit, take out half. No! It's okay to spend sixty-seven thousand to pay taxes. At least the Ross people are more reasonable than the Mellaren people. Since I pay a lot of taxes, they will no longer be like the Anklas and Mellaren tribes, always coveting my wealth."
Of course Gould was clear. As a leader, Rurik could do things unreasonably. Obviously, this kid's behavior has always been contractual.
No, Rurik immediately proposed a new benefit plan.
"I have some business matters to discuss with you. I want to recruit a group of shipbuilding professionals, experts with the ability to build your large cargo ships! I also hope that you will find a way to bring the Fodggen who is good at making leather products The family invites Roseburg. You will get my further preferential treatment because of these actions. You have to arrange your sons to do these things. In the future, the outstanding ones among your sons~www.novelhall.com~ will definitely get my family Will always be reused."
"You... Are you going to make a lot of transport ships? Shouldn't you be warships?" Gould asked inexplicably.
"I want a transport ship! I want to rely entirely on sailing transport ships. We Russ have expanded a lot of territory. I need time to digest these results. I will immediately use the resources of the newly conquered territories. Those transport ships, It is used to ship the iron ore of an entire mountain. That is the most important result of our Kitakari. It is the best ore that our blacksmith has ever seen. The transport ship is also used to load a huge amount of oriental fur. , Oriental salmon, and other goodies.
I don't believe in other big businessmen, I will trust you. Those brand new ironware and furs, who should I rely on to sell them? "
Gould, who had a big belly, smiled, and smiled clearly that he was a 200-jin fool.
He feels that there is no better vocabulary for the profit margins to describe its beauty. In contrast, the so-called commercial tax may be insignificant.
As a big businessman, Gould has no obligation to manage the life and death of small businessman. All you have to do is to serve Party A's father. What's more, this party A is still the big leader of his own real deal?

Do you really owe nothing to each other?

The transport ship is also used to load a huge amount of oriental fur. , Oriental salmon, and other goodies.
I don't believe in other big businessmen, I will trust you. Those brand new ironware and furs, who should I rely on to sell them? "
Gould, who had a big belly, smiled, and smiled clearly that he was a 200-jin fool.
He feels that there is no better vocabulary for the profit margins to describe its beauty. In contrast, the so-called commercial tax may be insignificant.
As a big businessman, Gould has no obligation to manage the life and death of small businessman. All you have to do is to serve Party A's father. What's more, this party A is still the big leader of his own real deal?
For business, Gould has his own understanding.He informed Rurik of his opinion."All kinds of businessmen came to Roseburg to do business. In fact, everyone felt that they brought the goods from outside to the Ross people, and at the same time, they could also take away the goods from Roseburg and sell them to distant places. Most of the merchants think this way, if Without business people, the Roths can only rely on themselves. Therefore, many people feel that they are kind to the Roths.""That's it? It's ridiculous." Rurik has seen him a long time ago. Could it be the attitude of many guest merchants? Could it be that they feel that if they don't come, the Ross people will be poor?Rurik said angrily: "In my opinion, they are clearly staring at our leather profits, including you. It is we who gave the merchants the possibility of making profits, so how can they become unilateral for us by the merchants? Conveying benefits."Gould shrugged: "Perhaps, some people think that this is mutually beneficial. Even so, the merchants and the Ruths themselves have nothing to do with each other."Do you really owe nothing to each other?Rurik's attitude was naturally completely negative. He narrowed his eyes and declared that it was not simple.He revealed in a calm and serious response: "You actually think that the tax plan I proposed is unreasonable and redundant? And it will harm the interests of business people?"Gould didn't answer rashly, and this silence was understood by Rurik as acquiescence."That's good. If that's the case, why don't I organize a trade team myself? I can form a caravan under my orders. Why rely on those traveling merchants? I can definitely be a merchant."Even if he is a child, he has shown strong action and perseverance for several years. Gould, who was silent, couldn't sit still at all, he spied Rurik's intention to abandon him.Even if Gould had lofty ambitions, he knew that his wealth came from the gift of this child. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was true.The old guy hurriedly straightened his back and ordered the servant waiting in the chamber to leave.Gould hurriedly explained: "I will support any of your decisions. I am already a Rusman. How can I not support the leader? I am your loyal servant. It is just that I have to tell you that this is the common belief.""I didn't aim at you." Rurik replied straightforwardly.Gould let out a sigh of relief.After all, Gould's words were not temporary nonsense, and Rurik took this opportunity to feel comfortable thinking about it.Indeed, if a country aspires to become strong, she will naturally find ways to attract investment in order to form its own economy and strength. Businessmen are profit-seeking, and collecting commercial taxes is also an important financial cornerstone for a country's proud and stable operation.Reducing taxes to zero within three to five years is the key to attracting businessmen to invest. After time has passed, taxation is necessary, and with this very considerable taxation, a large fiscal surplus can be used by a country to use this money to better build its national economy and people's livelihood according to its own wishes.Just now, Gould specifically mentioned the mighty Mellaren tribe, which is also regularly collecting a fortune from all foreign merchants. Specifically, it is a sales point built by other tribes in the "core area" set by the leader, and a tribute must be paid to the leader.Gould called it a tax, and Rurik was more appropriately called land rent.After thinking about it for a while, Rurik explained: "Even so, I still have to collect taxes. I am very different from the Mlaren people! You have just stated that you are in the core territory of Mlaren. To do business, you must give tribute to the leader. However, when you run an island on the lake, many merchants do the same thing, so you don't have to pay any tribute.The tax you understand is not tax at all, but rent.You said that the two Russian merchants do not owe or benefit each other. In my opinion, as a leader, I can act according to the methods of the Merlaren and collect their land rent.We Rus have provided a stable business environment for foreign businessmen for many years. The businessmen built residential warehouses in my territory, which completely squeezed our Russ own living space. It stands to reason that I should collect a sum of money to compensate my people.But I will not take things too extreme. Gould, would you like to hear my in-depth thoughts? "Gould's interest was completely mobilized, he couldn't think that the kid was witty words.To be honest, this child is already exercising the power of the leader. If he wants to make money, he can lead a group of warriors and force the merchants to take money. It's not that the leader of the Mellaren tribe has never done anything like this.Gould, who was once young and weak, couldn't forget the experience of being searched by that leader."Go ahead." Gould replied quickly."Then listen." Rurrik raised his chest: "I will persuade or order all the merchants who live in my Roseburg to come up with a sum of money obediently. Just before this year's trade season, I Business taxes in this area must be collected. Gould, you are a big businessman and I need your support.""Yes! My family will chase you forever."Rurik sullied his mouth and shook his head: "I need your real support, not verbal agreement. You have to support my opinion and really help me to do it.""So, what should I do?""Do you know my dream? Yes, you do. I want to make my tribe stronger than ever. If you think that you just have a strong military strength, and thousands of fighters are even strong, you would be wrong. wrong.I want to make the tribe really strong, so I need a lot of money.I don't have any intention of just caring for my own enjoyment, my money is for the whole tribe after all.My father Otto is getting older, and now he is more willing to chat with those uncles and is more addicted to alcohol. He asked me to do many things and promised that he would ratify my deeds. I am now the leader of the tribe! Even if you haven't experienced the final ceremony.Do you know my dream?I hope that in my clan, all the boys and girls in Ross will not go hungry or be frozen to death. All men can marry at least one wife, and all women can be protected by their husbands. All families will have enough food and clothing, so they will not maliciously abandon their daughters and reluctantly raise their sons.The Ross people will continue to conquer. Those who surrender to me, I will let them have enough food and clothes, and I will let them live quietly so that they will not rebel.If the Ross people want to continue their revenge, I need more excellent weapons, more fighters, and better ships.In order to achieve my dream, I need a lot of money and a lot of materials! "Although Rurik was eloquent, his immature childlike voice could be described as pure and pure, and it was these words that were really shocking.Gould marveled at Rurik's dream, and Jeflo couldn't believe that a Rusman could say such a thing.Because of surprise, Gould was sweating all over. He was quiet for a while before slowly responding: "Your words remind me of the goddess Freya. That is the most merciful goddess, the mother of all, she It is the embodiment of love and care.""You... mean I'm like Freya? I'm a man."Gould shook his head and put on a smile to relax the serious atmosphere: "But you can't deny that you were a very beautiful boy before you grew your beard. Listen, since you can get Odin's blessing, you How can I be sure that I have not received Freya's blessing?Your great ideal is like the ideal of a goddess.Do not! I even think that you may also be blessed by Frey. I can be sure that you have already received Thor's blessing. "What is flattery? This is flattery!The Ross people believe in a wide variety of gods. Most men believe in Odin, and most women feel that it is good for them to believe in goddesses like Freya and Friga.Gould chuckled: "Rurik, if you wear the priest's plain white gown, you stretch your hair and put on a flower crown. You are standing in the altar, no one will think you are a boy.But you are indeed a boy, a benevolent, great, brave, and beloved by the entire Asgardian gods. Yes, you will become a very good leader, that is, your dreams do require a lot of money to support. ""I don't want to listen to your flattery." Rurik continued in a good mood: "I'm trying to earn wealth. I hope to get a lot of food, leather, flax, and iron ore more than silver coins. When I earn silver coins, I don't melt to make tableware. When I'm extremely hungry, silver coins are useless. I earn silver coins in exchange for more supplies to make my people stronger and better lives. Therefore, businessmen must take money. Come!""Then do it! This is my true word. I will do my best to help you realize your dream. Maybe only in this way can my soul get closer to God. So let us discuss a reality, how much do you want to charge? Taxes? I have to vilify and say that if the business people feel that most of the money they make is taxed, they will not come to Roseburg. If the tax is too little, I don't think you will be satisfied."Rurik replied readily: "You don't need to worry about this, I have already thought of it. Those merchants, every household has to pay me fifty silver coins. I think this tax is appropriate."Gould was shocked. He actually wanted to say that this is a bit more than taxes. After all, a large number of businessmen are small businesses. For so many years, they have followed the big businessmen to eat leftovers. How much profit can those people make?Rurik also paused and emphasized: "You alone! Gould, you have to pay 10,000 silver coins in taxes this year.""Ah?!" Gould was really taken aback: "So many? Am I your sheep?! You..."Rurik turned his face on the spot and put on a threatening look: "Too much? You are a Ross native, you must obey the leader of me. You should understand that you are a different person! We Ross natives lack professional businessmen. Now, you are a big businessman I trust. Compared with those traveling merchants, it is as if you are a warrior in chain mail. Those people are just fools with only a fig leaf."Gould began to hesitate, no one knew what he was talking about, and Rurik knew that this guy must be upset.Yes, let a big businessman pay a heavy tax, how can a businessman willingly? What's more, there will be rebellion, and more will be cleaned up and ran away.Rurik pointed out the pros and cons: "Listen, the huge wealth you are earning now, and you have become a rich man, is it your personal ability? Don't be stupid! You are relying on me to become rich, without us Ross tribe, how much do you have?!I need you very much now, and what I need will always be the obedient Gould family. "Now, Gould's forehead was stretched out in cold sweat, this time he was no longer surprised, but through Rurik's eyes, Gould saw a fierce look. That is the look in the eyes of murder, the look in the eyes of people who have experienced battle.Two meanings that Gould perceives.If you refuse or hesitate to cooperate, you will no longer be reused, and Liulique will soon foster new merchants to replace him as a distributor of various commodities.Or, he was imprisoned or removed by the Rus, and his wealth was ruined.Gould can only think about the worst possible first. He weighed it and decided to fully agree with it."Okay! Ten thousand silver coins, I will take them out."Rurik could clearly detect the old guy's sigh, and he thought about it. How could a businessman suddenly spit out 10,000 silver coins?"Don't be sad, do you feel that you have lost a lot? I don't think you will suffer from gains or losses because of 10,000 silver coins. You will receive more support from me because of your active cooperation."Gould reluctantly begged for mercy; "Yes, my family is your loyal servant.""Very good. Today I want you to take out 10,000 silver coins. Or, you can directly pay for the grain. I know that you still have a lot of grain on hand that has not been sold. You don't need to continue trying to bid up. The price of food is still at the usual market price. A silver coin is exchanged for ten pounds. You now prepare one hundred thousand pounds for me. I forbid you to sell this food to anyone."Gould knew that Rurik also had a large amount of food in his hands. What is very amazing is that the child's control of his own food is simply to distribute to his men for food. I am afraid that this child has no intention of selling food for profit at all, which is really strange.Based on this, how did Gould think that the purpose of Rurik's hoarding of grain is to support his subordinates. This is to ensure high-calorie grains to maintain the daily calorie consumption of children and mercenaries, and also to support the daily calorie consumption of children and mercenaries. Use this as a temptation to force them to rely more on the leader's support. In order to have a full meal every day, they must remain loyal.There is also a very special point. They use a bag of dried grains as a reward for labor, and Lurik confesses the work of logging, construction and even tailoring to the tribe. They are extremely motivated.After all, according to Rurik's consumption method, the grains he had on hand did not last until the beginning of May. Therefore, during this period, the proportion of fish and seal meat in the children's diet became more and more important.Gould's grains at hand were no more than 100,000 pounds. Since Rurik had requested, he had to immediately hand over all the inventory, leaving only his family's rations.Gould made a promise to pay the tax immediately, and Rurik immediately gave encouraging feedback."I need your cooperation very much. I very much need you, the top big businessman, to set an example! When I start to collect taxes, I will announce to those small businessmen. You! Gould! Your family takes the lead. The most taxes are paid, so other businessmen have no reason to refuse to pay taxes.As a feedback to you, I will find more profit margins for you, even if you can only get the average profit in the future, you can also make a fortune.Listen, you are just a big businessman, and a big businessman who has risen up relying on my merits. You have too much money now, but your family is destined to only depend on me. You can be a wealthy person with peace of mind. Your family has been living in happiness and abundance, don't think about anything else. Your family is fully protected by me, and all risks are borne by me. "Gould noticed that Rurik had missed his words. It was obvious that Rurik was collecting business taxes. The kid proposed a novel idea, but he couldn't figure out the amount of tax.This child must take half of his profits for taxation in the future."Okay! If my family has one hundred thousand silver coins a year in pure profit, take out half. No! It's okay to spend sixty-seven thousand to pay taxes. At least the Ross people are more reasonable than the Mellaren people. Since I pay a lot of taxes, they will no longer be like the Anklas and Mellaren tribes, always coveting my wealth."Of course Gould was clear. As a leader, Rurik could do things unreasonably. Obviously, this kid's behavior has always been contractual.No, Rurik immediately proposed a new benefit plan."I have some business matters to discuss with you. I want to recruit a group of shipbuilding professionals, experts with the ability to build your large cargo ships! I also hope that you will find a way to bring the Fodggen who is good at making leather products The family invites Roseburg. You will get my further preferential treatment because of these actions. You have to arrange your sons to do these things. In the future, the outstanding ones among your sons~www.novelhall.com~ will definitely get my family Will always be reused.""You... Are you going to make a lot of transport ships? Shouldn't you be warships?" Gould asked inexplicably."I want a transport ship! I want to rely entirely on sailing transport ships. We Russ have expanded a lot of territory. I need time to digest these results. I will immediately use the resources of the newly conquered territories. Those transport ships, It is used to ship the iron ore of an entire mountain. That is the most important result of our Kitakari. It is the best ore that our blacksmith has ever seen. The transport ship is also used to load a huge amount of oriental fur. , Oriental salmon, and other goodies.I don't believe in other big businessmen, I will trust you. Those brand new ironware and furs, who should I rely on to sell them? "Gould, who had a big belly, smiled, and smiled clearly that he was a 200-jin fool.He feels that there is no better vocabulary for the profit margins to describe its beauty. In contrast, the so-called commercial tax may be insignificant.As a big businessman, Gould has no obligation to manage the life and death of small businessman. All you have to do is to serve Party A's father. What's more, this party A is still the big leader of his own real deal?
