All the officials, including Long Jingyun, handed over the annual taxes specified in the gambling agreement.
The person with the most bets filled in twenty-one years.
Moreover, they don’t dare to play tricks when paying taxes this time, let alone make casual remarks.
Because Ye Huan has a rough record of their property ownership.
Once they give less.
That is the pure crime of deceiving the emperor.
At the same time they also understood.
Today's incident.
In fact, it was the Emperor and Ye Huan who set up a trap for them.
There is only one purpose.
Want money!
It's better to ask for money than to ask for their lives.
So these guys just spend money to avoid disaster.
Don't dare to give less than a single point.
Finally before dark
Ye Huan successfully obtained the annual taxes of these people.
He didn't embezzle from it either.
Instead, he changed hands and handed it directly to Long Xiangtian.
Ye Huan: "Your Majesty, how much do you think it will be?"
Long Xiangtian couldn't wait: "There should be several million gold yuan."
Ye Huan chuckled, but shook his head.
Long Xiangtian was stunned and a little disappointed: "Don't you have millions of gold yuan?"
Ye Huan's expression suddenly became serious.
He handed the money bag and account book to Long Xiangtian.
"Your Majesty, the total amount is 38 million gold dollars, but I don't think this is something to be happy about. A country's taxes are very important. They are the lifeblood of the country. The poor cannot afford it, and the rich refuse to pay it. What about the national treasury?"
Maybe there is money? If there is no money in the national treasury, what can we use to benefit the people?"
"I know!"
Long Xiangtian's expression also became serious.
Then he smiled gratefully at Ye Huan: "Thank you, Brother Huan."
Although Ye Huan is a bitch.
But there are some aspects that make Long Xiangtian admire him very much.
Ye Huan waved his hand and urged impatiently: "You're welcome, let's just implement this matter tonight."
Long Xiangtian nodded: "Okay! I will restore my identity immediately."
Then Long Xiangtian smiled and muttered to Ye Huan again.
"Brother Huan, I didn't expect you to be more patriotic than the emperor like me."
"That's right! I'm a good person!"
Ye Huan accepted the compliment without hesitation
But actually.
He just wants Long Xiangtian to collect more taxes, so that he can distribute more money when the time comes.
That night.
Long Xiangtian and Zhang Mazi restored their respective identities.
Afterwards, he and Ye Huan talked for most of the night.
Morning next day——
Emperor Long Xiangtian first found an excuse to get angry in the court hall and scolded all the officials.
Not long afterward, imperial edicts were dispatched from the palace to various parts of Zhongzhou.
At the same time, Long Xiangtian personally appointed Zhang Mazi as the new tax collector and formed a tax collection team to be responsible for national tax collection.
And Zhang Mazi also received the Shanglong Sword as a reward from Long Xiangtian.
This sword has the power to cut first and strike later.
This was the first major thing Long Xiangtian did after he succeeded to the throne.
Poor people can apply for tax exemption for three to ten years depending on their family circumstances.
The rich must pay taxes in accordance with regulations, no less.
As soon as the news came out.
The entire royal city was first alarmed.
Immediately afterwards.
Caitou led the wealthy people in the royal city and took the lead in paying taxes.
There is an imperial edict, and there are people taking the lead.
Others still have to pay taxes even if they don't want to.
As for the poor people, after applying for tax exemption, they began to express gratitude and praise to the current emperor.
This wave is coming down.
Long Xiangtian not only received tax money, but also won the hearts and minds of the people.
Maybe this will offend some people.
But Long Xiangtian doesn't care about that.
He has given those people many opportunities before.
Loose enough.
Then start tightening up from today!
Except for tax matters.
Go to court early that morning.
Long Xiangtian also rewarded Ye Huan with a title.
Happy King of Wealth!
A prince in name only.
This title has no special attributes and can only gain the respect of the people.
even so.
Ye Huan is also the first player to become a prince.
This honor is still very enviable.
At the same time, Ye Huan also received the first tax share.
Three hundred and eighty thousand gold dollars.
This also proves that Ye Huan's setup these days was not in vain.
Because this share of money is just the beginning.
There will be more tax sharing in the future.
Tianxiu Pavilion——
It didn't take long for Ye Huan and others to enter the private room.
The old man of the Wu family, Wu Sen, came over personally to entertain them.
Today Long Xiangtian did not disguise himself, but entered Tianxiu Pavilion in a low-key manner.
Wu Sen: "Your Majesty, there are a total of 142 auction items in today's auction, which will be divided into morning and afternoon sessions."
Long Xiangtian nodded, glanced at Ye Huan, and said to Wu Sen: "I just came to see the excitement today."
His meaning is obvious.
He only watched the fun and didn't buy anything. Ye Huan was the one who did the shopping.
Long Xiangtian’s words.
This directly improved Ye Huan's status by a large margin.
The emperor personally accompanied him.
How many people in the entire royal city can be treated like this?
It seems that Brother Huan is now a popular person around the emperor.
And as time goes by.
There is an endless stream of guests in Tianxiu Pavilion, and the hall and private rooms are all filled with people.
Of course, there are also many wealthy players who come to join in the fun.
To know.
The ticket alone for this auction costs 10 gold dollars.
As for private rooms, they are more expensive. Each private room starts at 100 gold yuan.
Tianxiu Pavilion has a total of twelve private rooms.
Except for the private room No. 1 in Tianxiu Pavilion, which is used to greet special guests.
Other private rooms are reserved for those with the highest price.
Each private room has a small barrier to prevent prying eyes.
No one knows who their competitor will be today.
Ye Huan and the others are in private room No. 1.
Ye Huan has read many TV series and novels before.
He knew that auctions would be a good place to dig for treasures.
So he planned to observe carefully today to see if he could get some good things.
Wu Sen chatted for a while in Ye Huan's private room and then went out.
Because he is personally hosting the auction today.
When the time comes.
Wu Sen came on stage with a burst of hearty laughter.
This old man is quite eloquent.
It quickly heated up the place and aroused the interest of the guests.
As Wu Sen waved his hand.
The first auction item in the first half of today's auction was brought up.
Wu Sen: "Friends, the first auction item today is a pair of flying wings."
"Xingyi? It doesn't seem to be particularly good."
"Yes! Xingyi is said to be valuable, but in fact it has no value at all."
"That's right! Lao Wu, you wouldn't start the show with a worthless thing, would you?"
Many guests started shouting.
It seems that they are not very interested in flying wings.
Wu Sen smiled faintly and stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
"This pair of wings is a three-line Feng Shui Lei wing. The three attributes of Feng Shui Lei complement each other. Everyone must know the power of the combination. Therefore, the starting price of this item is 500 gold yuan, and each increase in price cannot be less than 10 gold yuan.
, the auction begins!”
The guests who were originally not interested in Xing Yi suddenly changed their attention.
"I'll go! This pair of Xingyi is quite awesome!"
"The three attributes of Feng Shui and Lei can indeed complement each other."
"I didn't expect the first item to be so valuable. It looks like today's auction will be exciting."
"Don't you have any bids? If no one bids, I'll raise the price."
No one has opened their mouths to shout yet.
A man's voice came from Private Room No. 1.
This guy skipped the starting bid of 500 gold dollars and raised a bid of 10,000 gold dollars.
And the person who can do such a thing is naturally Ye Huan.
Ye Huan was worried that he could not find a birthday gift for Mu Changge.
Unexpectedly, the first auction item was quite suitable for Mu Changge.
Of course he couldn't wait to bid.
10,000 gold dollars!
He directly crushed the others.
No one is raising prices anymore.
But just when Wu Sen was about to announce that the auction of Private Room No. 1 was successful.
In Private Room No. 6, Ye Huan's familiar voice suddenly came out.
