Chapter 439: Tax Reform Completed

To be honest, Yu Qi really can't kill all the Zhu family members. If he kills all the Zhu family members, the money will definitely not reach his hands in the end, and it will definitely be an advantage to the other wealthy families.

Yu Qi is not stupid, he must have chosen to maximize profits.

Why did he spend so much time and cause such a big disturbance? It wasn't just for the money.

Raising a nine-sided army of hundreds of millions is not a small amount, and it is not something that Yu Qi can solve with just a few ideas.

If you want to solve Jiubian's big food and salary problem, you have to rely on the powerful people in the world.

Why does the imperial court receive less and less tax revenue every year?

Now you can’t even support the Nine-Border Army?

Isn't it because the powerful are getting more and more powerful, and all the profitable businesses in the world fall into the hands of the powerful.

Looking at the locusts in the ravine and the delightful Locust God, Yu Qi thought for a while, and then said: "Remnant souls of demon gods often appear recently. Can the demon god who restrains you be included in this list?"

The Locust God scratched his head when he heard this: "Reporting to my lord, among the gods of the Great Wilderness, their subordinates are the weakest category. There are probably dozens of gods and beasts who can restrain their subordinates. There are probably dozens of them."

"It doesn't matter, they are just remnant souls after all. It's fine if they can quietly cultivate and regain their strength. If they take the initiative to jump around, they are seeking death!" Yu Qi looked coldly: "Come here, please come to the back mountain and take a look at this scene.

Mountain scenery.”

Yu Qi's voice was full of strangeness. He didn't know how the ministers would react to the overwhelming locust disaster.

Will the eight hundred princes surrender?

Chongyang Palace Main Hall

At this time, the civil and military officials from all over the dynasty were standing in the main hall and whispering. Suddenly, a little Taoist boy of eighteen or nineteen years old walked out of the door with a cautious face, broke into the main hall and bowed respectfully to the ministers: "Ministers, please come and go back."

A line of mountains.”

The ministers looked at each other and said nothing. They had already arrived at Chongyang Palace, and they were still within a few steps.

What's more, everyone has heard about the Zhu family's affairs, and there must be rules for everything.

Although Yu Qi subdued the Zhu family, the major families in the world would never give in so easily. If Yu Qi wanted to implement reforms, he had to come up with methods that would convince everyone.

Everyone walked along the mountain road. The scenery in the mountains was dense with ancient trees, cypresses and evergreens. There was mist rising in the mountains. It was a blessed place.

When they came closer, they saw Yu Qiyi dressed in white, holding a folding fan in his hand, looking down at the officials coming from the bottom of the mountain.

"Master, you brought us here, but what's your explanation?" Huang Feihu looked at Yu Qi with an unkind expression.

Glancing at Huang Feihu, Yu Qi just said: "Interesting! Interesting!"

Then he looked at the expressionless ministers and said, "The Japanese leader took action and surrendered a god. That god is now suppressed on the back cliff of my Taoist temple. If you are interested, you may wish to come and take a look."

After hearing Yu Qi's words, all the ministers' hearts were moved, knowing that this was Yu Qi's trump card.

I just don't know what the trump card is that makes Yu Qi so confident that he can make all the major families surrender.

Hearing that Grand Master took the lead, he quickly stepped forward and stood side by side with Yu Qi. Then he looked at the overwhelming locusts in front of him and the purple locust god standing in the center. His expression changed and he blurted out in surprise:

"Locust God!"

"What? Locust God?" The ancestors of the major families were also excited at this time. They all came forward one after another, lowered their heads and looked at the deep canyon, with a solemn and horrified look in their eyes. Especially Huang Feihu, especially Huang Feihu.

He glared at Yu Qi angrily: "Yu Qi, you are simply going too far! Did you cause the locust plague in my Huang family? Were you the one responsible for the locust plague back then?"

"King Wucheng must never wrongly accuse a good person. I have just suppressed this locust god. Back then, I, Zhongnan Mountain, also suffered a locust disaster. How could it be that I commanded it?" Yu Qiyi defended righteously.

"You fart! Do you really think that everyone is blind? When you released the locusts, one was to clear yourself of suspicion, and the other was to use the locusts to complete land reclamation. We may not have reacted at the time, but when the locust plague disappears, we will all

You can see clearly that all the locusts only ate your wasteland of Zhongnan Mountain, not even a single plant or tree on the main peak of your Zhongnan Mountain!" Huang Feihu pointed at Yu Qi's nose and cursed angrily.

He had seen shameless people before, but this was the first time he had seen something so shameless.

"Nonsense, it was clearly because I protected the boundary of Chongyang Palace with my great magic power and supernatural power, so that the locusts never had the chance to ravage my boundary of Zhongnan Mountain." Yu Qi looked at Huang Feihu, but he didn't expect that this kid was so smart, and he directed and acted by himself at that time.

His good show was actually exposed.

"Although you are the king of martial arts in the country, if you talk nonsense to confuse the public and deceive the civil and military officials of the court, don't blame me for being rude!" Yu Qi showed a glint in his eyes and looked at Huang Feihu with a stern gaze. If the other party dares to continue to pester, he will be punished.

Use thunderous means.

He wanted to scare the world's powerful people today, but he had no time to mess with Huang Feihu.

Sure enough, Huang Feihu's face turned gloomy, he stared at Yu Qi and kept silent.

We are all smart people, so if there is any problem, just point it out and there is no need to continue to pester. The nobles will naturally record this account to Yu Qi.

Looking at the Locust God in the valley and the overwhelming locusts, everyone in the field looked extremely sad, and their hearts gradually sank to the bottom of the valley.

Everyone knows that we are in big trouble!

Have you seen the locusts?

This is a blatant threat.

Let me ask you whether you surrender or not? Surrender or not?

Just asking if you are afraid?

"Everyone, don't pay attention to the Locust God. Let's continue talking about taxes. I want to levy 30% of the total income of each of your major families in annual taxes. What do you think?" Yu Qi looked at the group with a smile.

minister.

When the ministers looked at me and I looked at you, they were all filled with anger. They wished they could kick Yu Qi into the cliff and fall to death.

After saying this, there was silence in the place. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and for a moment they ran out of ideas.

Those are locusts!

Locusts that specialize in eating food.

Once the natural disaster of locusts spreads, it will be unimaginable to see how horrific the scene will be.

In the face of such natural disasters, even though there are magical methods, it is difficult to reverse the weather and the four seasons.

"There is no need to discuss it anymore, I have agreed to this matter!" Dong Bohou stood up with a gloomy face, staring at the locust with his eyes, then turned around and glanced at Yu Qi without looking back.

Turn around and leave.

Dongbohou is one of the four great princes in the world. Since he has agreed to do it, he will naturally do it.

"Hahaha, those who know the current affairs are heroes. You are all heroes for a while, so you should be open-minded. Don't you understand such a simple truth of losing money and avoiding disasters?" Huang Feihu said maliciously at this time: "I, Wu,

Prince Cheng's Mansion agreed that 30% of the benefits will be transferred to the treasury tomorrow.

In the face of overwhelming locusts, who can refuse to agree?

Don't you agree to wait and see the fate of Huang Feihu and Dong Bohou?

Furthermore, it is not up to you to decide how much 30% of the income is? How can outsiders know how much income your family has?

Of course Yu Qi knows the tricks involved, but he doesn't force it. This kind of thing needs to be done step by step, trampling on everyone's bottom line step by step.

Today, everyone agreed to tax, and after a while, when everyone got used to it, he was taking advantage of it, taking advantage of it step by step, and forcing the ministers into the corner.

Yu Qi had a smile in his eyes, looking at the backs of the ministers turning away, smiling proudly.

This thing is done!

It’s indeed done!

"You kid!" Fu Tianqiu glanced at Yu Qi, shook his head, and then hurriedly walked down the mountain.

Until now, even Fu Tianchou did not dare to get involved with Yu Qi.

The reform is considered accomplished.

"Okay, put away your magical powers so that you can cultivate in Chongyang Palace," Yu Qi ordered.

He suddenly discovered that although the Locust God's combat power was somewhat inferior, it was really useful in some aspects.

The second day

It just cleared up

In front of the imperial palace gate, there was an endless array of carriages and horses, with no end in sight.

At this time, there were so many people in front of the palace, it was as lively as a vegetable market.

"My lords, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Yu Qi appeared at the top of the city. Looking at the supplies piled up under the city gate, his eyes almost turned into money-like smiles.

Yu Qi was smiling, her smile full of pride.

He knew that the major aristocratic families were definitely short of supplies. They were told that 30% of the supplies would be sent, but at most they would only send 10%.

But this 10% of supplies is definitely an astronomical amount, more than enough to feed the nine-sided army.

Everyone was not stupid, they all came based on measurements. They calculated that Yu Qi could feed the nine-sided army.

If the supplies everyone offered could not feed the nine-sided army, it would be strange for Yu Qi to give up.

The ministers looked grim and ignored him. They just ordered their servants to register the supplies and then entered the palace to start handling government affairs.

Just when Yu Qi was in high spirits, Taoist Daguang came to Shangjing again in a hurry.

"Bad boy, it's bad! Something big has happened!" Taoist Daguang secretly transmitted the message to Yu Qi who was standing on the wall.

Yu Qi raised his eyebrows and locked eyes with Daguang, showing a puzzled look.

Taoist Daguang waved his hands repeatedly, signaling Yu Qi to go down.

Yu Qi handed over the guards, then turned into a breeze, and when he reappeared, he had already appeared outside the door with Taoist Daguang.

"What happened?" Yu Qi looked at Da Guang in surprise. He had never seen Taoist Da Guang look so anxious.

"What big thing could it be?" Yu Qi was puzzled.

"The demon tribe is going to establish a country, is it considered a big event?" Taoist Daguang asked anxiously.

"How long has it been since Emperor Liujian, and the demon tribe has established a country at this time? Old Taoist, please don't joke." Yu Qi couldn't do it.

The demon tribe worked so hard to create the emperor's ooze, and they would not wait until the peak of Qi to establish a country, unless they had a watt head.

But looking at Daguang Taoist's expression, it doesn't seem like he's being fake.
