"Catch me? General Lu, why don't you think about how to survive in this Dongsheng Galaxy."
Long Chen didn't take Lu Yu's words seriously at all, and even directly threatened him.
He stared at Lu Yu and said with some meaning: "General, doesn't he know how the previous commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army died?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the whole room immediately dropped to freezing point.
Lu Yu had previously obtained information about Pei Tianguang, so he naturally knew the reason for the death of the commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army.
Dongsheng Galaxy is a strategic location, and the commanders of the five armies are all prince-level figures. But he actually died of poisoning, which is quite strange when you think about it.
Lu Yu said indifferently: "How dare you say that? Could it be that you were the one who killed the last governor?"
Long Chen smiled and was about to speak when he saw Lu Yu's fingers tapping the table.
"Think it over before you talk, I'm listening." Lu Yu looked directly at Long Chen.
The smile on Long Chen's face suddenly froze, and he suddenly realized that if he said it now, Lu Yu would probably get the handle.
"Amitabha, the two donors might as well sit down and talk."
Xuanbei smiled and said: "General Lu, Lao Na and others are also thinking about the general. The situation in Dongsheng Galaxy is too turbulent and cannot be affected by one person. The general can become a high-ranking official at a young age. In the future
There must be a bright future, and the sky is boundless, so why waste your life here."
"Now that Dongsheng Galaxy is in a period of war, what is most needed is for the imperial court and me and other foreigners to cooperate with each other. We just plan to work together with the governor to win-win, that's all."
Lu Yu tapped his fingers on the table and said without changing his expression: "How do you plan to win together?"
Several people in front of them looked at each other, and one of them, Taoist Ye Xingku, said: "With the attack of the Tang Dynasty, our sect must take this opportunity to develop disciples and improve our strength to protect ourselves. As long as the Governor can allow us to recruit more disciples,
There are no restrictions. We are willing to donate the top martial arts in the sect to the governor, and we are willing to give 30% of the taxes paid every year to the governor."
Lu Yu frowned and asked, "Can you still distribute the taxes you pay?"
If a sect wants to gain a foothold on the imperial court's territory, it must pay taxes.
If they dare not to surrender, unless they disband the sect on their own, what awaits these people is the thundering wrath of the imperial court.
Ye Xingku stroked his beard and laughed and said: "General Lu, you have been at the center and don't understand the local rules at all. Although these taxes are nominally handed over to the court, it depends on who they give them to."
"According to the rules, we naturally have to hand over the fairy stone to the hands of the Ministry of Household Affairs. However, wouldn't it be better if the money was handed over to the local governor. You got the money, sir, and we also paid the taxes. This
It’s called win-win.”
After Lu Yu heard this, he suddenly realized.
No wonder, Dongsheng Galaxy pays less and less taxes every year.
I am afraid that these outside sects have already handed over all the taxes that were originally supposed to be paid to the Ministry of Household Affairs to local officials.
This can almost be called a bribe, but for these sects, the taxes have already been paid, it is just a question of who should pay them.
"I'm afraid this is against the rules. If you tell me such an important thing, aren't you afraid that I will send you all to the Sanfa Department?" Lu Yu's fingers were still tapping the table.
