Captain Zhao turned his attention to Tian Feng and snorted coldly: If all the merchants follow your words, wouldn't there be chaos in the city? Since you enter the city, you need to pay taxes. This is the rule of the Jin State.

Since when did the Jin Kingdom have such rules, why didn’t I know about it? Tian Feng’s voice also seemed a little cold.

What if we are members of the Chamber of Commerce?

Lieutenant Zhao was slightly startled. Judging from the size of this caravan, one hundred merchants had little wealth. When would such merchants be able to enter the Chamber of Commerce? The wealth of Jizhou is not comparable to that of Yanzhou. If you want to enter

The Jizhou Chamber of Commerce also has many conditions.

Is there any proof? Captain Zhao's tone softened a lot.

While guarding the city gate, Colonel Zhao could be said to have seen all kinds of people. He still had a clear understanding of what kind of people should not be offended. If he puts himself in danger because of some petty gains,

In such a situation, Captain Zhao would not do such a thing.

Walking to the captain's position was not an easy task for Colonel Zhao.

Seeing Lu Bu shaking his head slightly, Tian Feng said: I came to Yanzhou in a hurry this time, which proves that I didn't bring it with me.

Are you kidding me? Colonel Zhao's face looked a little ugly, and the soldiers who came with Colonel Zhao also looked at Tian Feng with a somewhat unkind look.

Paying 20% ​​of the tax is really too much. I have traveled all over the country and visited many states and counties. Even the taxes in Chang'an City are not so high, right? Tian Feng said.

Captain Zhao smiled and said: I cannot control what happens in Chang'an City. If you cannot pay taxes, you will not be able to leave Changyi, let alone enter the city.

Lu Bu shook his head secretly. Colonel Zhao's appearance is quite good, but he has such a good appearance. Needless to say, Colonel Zhao has certain problems. First of all, there is a problem with the amount of taxes paid.

Paying 20% ​​of the tax is calculated based on the value of the items. If the value of some items is difficult to estimate, you must follow Captain Zhao's orders.

There is a lot of profit in this. Just relying on the benefits obtained from the taxes paid by businessmen is enough for Zhao Lieutenant to earn more money.

Such behavior has harmed the interests of many businessmen. It can be seen from Zhao Xiaowei's choice of targets that Zhao Xiaowei is also a cautious person. He will only choose to take action when he is able to do so. If

If a real large caravan came, Captain Zhao would not dare to embarrass himself.

Big businessmen are not easy to provoke, and many businessmen are members of chambers of commerce in various states. Through chambers of commerce, these businessmen can maintain their power.

This is why Captain Zhao took it more cautiously after hearing Tian Feng mention the Chamber of Commerce.

Seeing Captain Zhao's arrogant look, Wang Shuang was furious. He was just a captain. If he had known the identities of Lu Bu and Tian Feng, he wouldn't have been so arrogant.

If so, just pay the taxes. Lu Bu lowered his voice and said in Tian Feng's ear.

Tian Feng nodded slightly and winked at Wang Shuang.

As a result, Captain Zhao casually took a look at the money Wang Shuang handed over and said: Don't think about opportunism in the future, and be more careful when doing business in the city. If it falls into the hands of this general, it will definitely not be easy to understand.

of.

If you are dissatisfied with this general, feel free to go to the state pastoral office.

In the last sentence, Captain Zhao is completely out of habit. Most of the businessmen who have been bullied by Captain Zhao do not dare to go to the Prefectural Mufu. After all, Captain Zhao is also a general in the army and has a certain influence in the city.

Do ordinary businessmen with high status still expect the officials of the Prefectural Mufu to support them even after arriving at the Prefectural Mufu's Office?

After paying taxes, they could only do business in Changyi. If the goods were not sold, the merchants would suffer big losses.

Not all states and counties are like Changyi. There are certain regulations when collecting taxes. After a merchant arrives in a city, he only needs to register the goods. When the merchant leaves, he will register the goods when he leaves.

Can calculate how much tax they need to pay.

When merchants are doing business, there are also officials in the city to check the situation. If the merchants do other small things, the punishment of these merchants will be cruel.

This situation was not well implemented in Changyi.

If Yuan Hao brought more guards to give the caravan more supplies, Captain Zhao would definitely not dare to be so arrogant after seeing Yuan Hao. Lu Bu said with a smile.

Tian Feng lowered his voice and said: Your Majesty, I suspect that this Captain Zhao has a big problem. If we start with this person, we might learn more about Changyi.

Okay, as Yuan Hao said, but you need to be more careful when doing this. After all, this is Yanzhou. If they have other accomplices secretly, it will be dangerous. Lu Bu said.

Seeing that Lu Bu could still maintain a clear mind at such a time, Tian Feng was relieved.

Yanzhou is under the rule of the Jin State, which is good. The key is whether the current Yanzhou officials will be absolutely loyal to Lu Bu.

What would the wealthy families in Yanzhou do if they knew that Lu Bu had secretly come to Changyi?

Lu Bu was a military commander, and his martial arts were outstanding. It was basically impossible to defeat Lu Bu in a battle. In terms of personal safety, Lu Bu did not need to worry more. Besides, he was in the caravan.

His identity is the guard commander, the same as Wang Shuang.

When something happened, it was Wang Shuang and Tian Feng who came forward. He only needed to stay among the guards and observe carefully.

Regarding the situation in Yanzhou, you can see more things just by looking at the city gates. Perhaps the development of Yanzhou is good, but the implementation of some systems in Yanzhou is not as good as imagined, and the garrison at the city gate

The generals are under the management of the generals in the army.

But even if this is the case, as long as the generals in the city do something that violates the law, the officials in the city still have the right to take Captain Zhao away.

Lu Bu was sure that this was not the first time that Captain Zhao had done something like this.
