The door had been pushed open by Hu Xier outside, and this girl looked excited: "Hurry up, come out and watch the fireworks!"
Liu Zheng and others were dumbfounded.
In fact, she didn't need to shout. As soon as the door opened, the colorful fireworks outside were already blooming all over the city.
Liu Zheng didn't say much more. Since everyone was so interested, he followed him onto the street.
Today is destined to be the biggest festival in Baiya City. This kind of annual contract meeting is more lively than the Spring Festival in Baiya. On this day, Baiya welcomes guests from all over the world, and cars of gold and silver will be held there.
Being dragged to Baiya Prefecture today, the people would naturally be very happy, singing and dancing.
Zheng Yueru smiled and said: "I heard that at this year's contract meeting, the transaction volume reached a new high. This means that the Baiya Army will spend at least half of it to distribute money to everyone in the city. How can they not be happy?"
Liu Zheng smiled and nodded.
Rumors spread that on the first day of the contract meeting, the gold and silver used by the vassal kings in the world to buy war horses reached tens of millions!
Ten million!
Baiya Prefecture has a population of one million, even if half of it is taken out and distributed to no one, it will still be five taels!
According to the fact that each household spends about two taels of silver a year, this year's dividends alone will be two or three years of expenses. What is this concept? This basically realizes the unity of the world!
War horses alone are enough to make Baiya Prefecture richer than Liang Prefecture.
At first glance, the party was full of singing and dancing, the lights were brightly lit, people were singing and dancing, and they looked like they were in a prosperous age. At the beginning of the dinner, several dragon and lion dance teams appeared on the street, making it very lively.
A few people were rarely happy and started to follow the crowd.
Jiang Xuan said strangely: "Brother, it stands to reason that the people of Baiya should love the Baiya Army. How come we have been here for so long, but the people are so indifferent to the Baiya Army? It is only today that they seem a little more enthusiastic."
.”
Zheng Yueru is also very strange.
Liu Zheng chuckled and said: "That's what the so-called love between rice and hatred is like."
He said leisurely: "Don't believe in the poisonous chicken soup that people are originally good by nature. You must know that human desires are endless. People have desires since they are born, or to be precise, before they are born, and everything
Competitiveness, all comparisons, all vanity, even all motivation, all progress, and all advancement are all because of desire."
desire.
This is a bad thing, but it's also a good thing.
Desire gives people motivation, but also makes people greedy without end.
"The Baiya Army gave them five taels of silver in the first year, and then, what about the second year? What about the third year?"
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "It's fine if you give back five taels, but if you lose one tael, what do you think people will think?"
Several people were stunned immediately.
That's right, when all this becomes a habit, people will take it for granted. Then if you don't give it to me for another year, then I will be angry!
Baiya Prefecture is ruled by you, so you may not know how much money you make. What's wrong with giving more to the people?
In fact, the current situation of the White Cliff Army is that it may have reached the level of utopia in terms of economy, but it has not yet fully improved in terms of personal quality and spiritual civilization... Surrounded by dragon flames
In an environment like the Dynasty, it is indeed impossible to improve.
Therefore.
The people gradually lost their love and support for the Baiya Army. Some people even hope that the governor's office will return to power - because in that case, they may gain more benefits?
Human greed is always endless.
This is also an issue that Liu Zheng needs to pay attention to when he manages his territory in the future.
Tonight, this white cliff looks like it is blooming with flowers. If it collapses, the mountains will collapse and the earth will split apart.
"Look, look, there's a float over there!"
Along the way, Hu Xier was very happy, looking like a little girl. Liu Zheng and others also followed her around with smiles.
After walking around for a while, someone suddenly came from behind and gently patted Liu Zheng on the back.
Liu Zheng looked back and saw that the person coming was Yang Ke, but Yang Ke was obviously disguised now.
