In addition to a vassal state, the Qin State also had merchants from Genoa and France on the Europa continent at this moment.

They came to the Ministry of Finance to obtain a commercial license that can do business within the territory of the Great Qin Dynasty and register for tax payment.

Xiao Ruxun had very detailed arrangements and regulations for Daqin merchants going out to do business and foreign merchants going to do business in Daqin. The rules and regulations were all well structured, which stipulated the tax amount that Daqin merchants need to pay for business in Daqin, and the tax amount that foreign merchants need to pay for business in Daqin.

Among them, foreign businessmen went to Daqin to do business, which stipulated that before the five people were doing business, they must first arrive in Beijing to report information to the Ministry of Finance.

They need to leave their nationality, name, appearance paintings and business content in the Ministry of Finance. Officials of the Ministry of Finance will tell them the rules and tax ratios for doing business in Daqin, tell them how to pay taxes, and punish measures for not paying taxes in a timely manner, etc.

Because Daqin is currently only allowed businessmen from Genoa and France to come to Daqin to do business, the only European merchants who came to Beijing to report were only merchants from Genoa and France.

But these people look similar. The Qin officials privately said that they all look the same, and it is really difficult to tell which one is French, which is Genoa, or other Europa.

They also cannot tell whether there are people from other countries that use the nationalities of these two countries.

This matter was not concluded until a long time later when the official contacts between Daqin and Europa became closer. They themselves proved that at this time, a considerable number of merchants from England, the Netherlands, Spain and other countries bribed the merchants from France and Genoa to help them pretend to be nationality and come to Daqin to do business.

There was no way. For a long time after Chen Longzheng arrived in Europe, the official Qin Dynasty only recognized the merchants from Genoa and France, and only allowed them to do business in Daqin.

The merchants of Daqin only entered Genoa and France to invest and do business. Only the officials and private parties of these two countries can have normal exchanges with Daqin.

Others, especially those from Spain, because Xiao Ruxun had fought a war with the Spanish, and there were many Portuguese in Xiao Ruxun's artillery factory to cast artillery for Daqin, and their country was annexed by Spain, so they had no good feelings for Spain and tried their best to speak bad things about Spain.

Various factors have been superimposed, so the official Qin Dynasty is very repulsive to Spain and has repeatedly told people from France and Genoa that Qin refused to interact with the Spanish and did not want to encounter anything that had something to do with Spain.

This has a great impact on Spain. Spanish merchants and nobles have great resentment towards the Spanish royal family because of this incident.

Because they wanted to do business with Daqin, but Daqin did not recognize them and was particularly opposed to them. At that time, merchants in Europe were popular with France and Genoa to help them fake their nationality and enter Daqin to do business. If people from other countries needed one tael of silver, the Spanish needed three taels of silver.

The three-fold price gap made the Spaniards extremely resentful, but the huge profits of doing business with Daqin made them jealous, so they had to endure the upset and bribe the Genoese and French.

The Genoese are fine, but the French sometimes even offer a price of five times and seven times. If there is a conflict of faith between the two sides, after all, France and Spain have been old enemies for many years.

These things are not within the scope of Daqin's consideration. In essence, the more these European merchants come, the more money Daqin earns. Not to mention that Daqin has a large number of official factories that specialize in these businesses, there are also many workshops among the people who host unfinished unnecessary orders that the official factories handle, and they also make a lot of money.

People from the Ministry of Finance of Daqin went to Europe for inspections through caravans many times and knew how profitable the Qin Dynasty's goods were in Europe. So they not only made money through European merchants, but also made money by organizing caravans themselves. What they made was not a little bit.

Less than two years after the founding of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiao family Huangzhuang merchant fleet set out for five groups. The fleet that left in March of the first year of Longwu came back for three months, and only one month after leaving in April.

This fleet full of porcelain, silk, tea, iron pots and other tight items spent more than a year to make a profit difference of five times in Europa. It was Xiao Ruxun's Royal Merchant Fleet, which were all related commodities produced by the Royal Merchant Fleet. Then the Royal Merchant Fleet invested in forming a fleet, and was responsible for the profit and loss, making a lot of money.

Where did Xiao Ruxun get the confidence to bear the royal expenses at his own expenses? It was these crazy profitable merchant fleets. They could earn more than half a year of expenses for the entire palace by one trip.

Xiao Ruxun was not stingy with his officials. He often invited them to dinner, gave them benefits, etc. These were the confidence brought to Xiao Ruxun by the crazy money-making merchant fleet.

In addition, the merchant fleet brought some mechanical gadgets from Europe, such as handmade clocks and exquisitely made small hand guns. These gadgets were also given as gifts by Xiao Ruxun to officials, generals and royal families.

Now every official in Daqin has a mechanical clock to watch the time, while almost every general has a small hand gun, not for the sake of killing, but for the sake of good looks and majesty.

These skilled craftsmen were ordered by Xiao Ruxun to use money to dig up Daqin to do business for Daqin, and then sent people to learn relevant mechanical knowledge from them, improve them, and incorporate the local characteristics of Daqin to produce handmade products that match Daqin, which are very popular in Daqin.

Such large amounts of income basically satisfy Xiao Ruxun's daily expenses, and national taxes can therefore be basically used for national construction. Such construction gave Daqin abundant funds and vitality in infrastructure construction. Therefore, the construction of Daqin is very gratifying.

Dachidao, education construction and major repairs are all very expensive things, but Daqin can mobilize quite reliable forces to build and repair and improve some important local facilities, which is inseparable from the central allocation and local mobilization.

The Europa businessman who provided funds for such repairs was also highly valued by Xiao Ruxun.

Originally, Xiao Ruxun wanted to take this opportunity to invite senior executives from Genoa and France to Daqin to meet and communicate, but later he found that time was too tight and three months was not enough to get them to come, so he had to dispel this idea.

But which businessman who can go overseas to do business these days has no status in his own country?

You can ask the relatives of the lord and the official by a little question. Therefore, these Europa merchants with special identities were invited by Xiao Ruxun to participate in the military parade together.
