Regarding Wang Xuan, people from these aristocratic families have collected a lot of information, but it was all superficial before, such as Wang Xuan is still single, Wang Xuan is not good at beauty, and Wang Xuan is extremely rich.
But after this contact, they discovered that Wang Xuan didn't like to be wordy with others. He was very straightforward and direct in his actions. To put it more bluntly, he was too murderous!
Even Bai Qi, the famous murderer in history, is most famous for killing 400,000 people in the Zhao Kingdom. For this reason, he is called the murderer.
But now compared with Wang Xuan, just in Annan and the two empty cities, you can know how many people he killed with just one order, let alone other cities in Annan!
It is impossible to even think about taking advantage of such a murderous maniac without paying the price!
It is indeed impossible!
As soon as everyone returned to Guangzhou, Wang Xuan gathered everyone together, and the entire venue fell into silence the moment he appeared. If their previous love for Wang Xuan only remained in legends, then this trip made them
I saw the truth.
Looking at the more than eighty family heads present, wherever Wang Xuan's eyes passed, everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him, "Without talking about Annan in advance, let's talk about other things first. I believe everyone knows the tax rules in Fujian. From now on.
Starting tomorrow, this tax law will be promoted in Guangdong and Annan. All tax resistance will be dealt with according to the law, without any room for maneuver! In addition, the province will begin to re-clarify the land acres and implement new 'weights and measures' and 'gold and silver coins'."
"So, tell me now, who is in favor and who is against!"
As soon as Wang Xuan finished speaking, Sun Chengzong and others who came with him looked at the people from the major families. What they saw was that everyone looked like their dead parents, with extremely expressions on their faces.
It is impossible for any aristocratic family not to touch Xiang. Wang Xuan said that he would scrape off a thick layer of flesh from these people every year.
Naturally, no one is willing to pay for taxes that have not been paid for hundreds of years.
Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents, a life-and-death hatred!
But in Sun Chengzong's eyes, he didn't see anyone standing up to object. He couldn't understand this at all!
More than 20 years ago, Zhang Juzheng carried out a reform with the support of Emperor Wanli. In that reform, the losses of the family were not that big. At most, it was just a re-determination of land acres. At least there was no loss at all in terms of business taxes. It is different from what it is now.
By the same token, in that situation, many people were killed.
Faced with life-and-death threats, opponents still appear one after another and never stop.
On the fourth day after Zhang Juzheng's death, the imperial censor Lei Shi frame and other seven officials were impeached, and the officials also pointed the finger at Zhang Juzheng. Wanli then ordered his family to be ransacked, and his palace rank was cut off, and he was forced to seize the seals and imperial edicts given to him during his lifetime.
, to show his guilt to the world, and Zhang Juzheng also nearly had his coffin opened and his body whipped. His family members either starved to death or were exiled. Some of the officials employed by Zhang Juzheng during his lifetime were reduced from their posts or abandoned the market.
In terms of public opinion, all measures against Zhang Juzheng were placed on Wanli's head. However, the people at the top understood that this was just a counterattack by the world's aristocratic families. Faced with the overwhelming impeachment memorials and the 'raging public opinion',
Emperor Wanli had to compromise.
After the death of the people and the end of the government, the newly increased taxes gradually fell back and became what they were before the reform. This also means that the reform failed and ZTE has come to nothing.
The Ming Dynasty's chariot, which was gradually sliding into the abyss, had been blocked, but then returned to its original trajectory, completely cutting off its way of survival.
Now Sun Chengzong didn't understand. In the face of the same reform, Wang Xuan was more ruthless this time. Why, the heads of these aristocratic families just looked ugly, but no one opposed it?
"Since there is no objection, then the matter is settled. If I find out later that you are secretly obstructing it, don't blame me for being ruthless. I will make your whole family into a cement block to warn the world about restraining greed in their hearts."
"Okay, now let's talk about the next item. There is endless land in Annan, and some of it has been developed. Now, we are selling the first batch of fields, located in Nam Dinh City and Thang Long Palace, for ten taels of silver per acre. You can buy as much as you want.
It’s up to you to decide.”
Xiaoliuqiu was developed for free for those aristocratic families. Everyone knew this, but no one thought that Wang Xuan would be so kind this time. After all, it was the first time. Now, with mature experience,
There will definitely be a price to pay.
The venue became more and more lively, and the depressing atmosphere just now disappeared. The ten taels of silver were somewhat higher than the market price.
However, this market price is the price for scattered purchases. Land is different from other products. The larger the one-time transaction volume, the more expensive the price!
A transaction of tens of thousands of acres can support an ordinary family, and a transaction of 100,000 acres can support a family that has been around for hundreds of years. It’s no wonder that the price is not expensive!
What Wang Xuan is selling this time is even more exaggerated. As long as you can afford it, you can buy the entire land connected together, which is more attractive than the scattered land.
The integrated land plot allows the family's power to be dispersed and the influence it can exert is even greater.
Everyone is calculating how much gold and silver they can produce at home, and how much they can share in this gluttonous feast.
However, with the strength of these families, there is no problem with tens or millions. If it is more, it will be a bit difficult. At this moment, those relatively cherished jewelry, jade, precious calligraphy and paintings, etc., seem a bit redundant, but now everyone
Guangdong, don’t even think about selling these things.
Wang Xuan pressed his hands to make the scene quieter, and then continued: "There is so much land in Annan this time that Guangdong Province alone cannot digest it, and I will not wait so long to slowly prepare it for everyone."
Money, so the aristocratic families in Fujian will participate after you purchase it, and then there may be aristocratic families from other places, but this is not necessarily the case."
As soon as this was said, the people present became a little anxious. You must know that the first batch of buyers can buy many entire pieces of land, and many of them have already planted crops and are just waiting to be harvested!
This is a lot of money. Relatively speaking, it is the most cost-effective for first-time buyers!
But right now, where can I raise more money?
Everyone was a little anxious. After passing this village, there was no such store. Fujian people are rich now. Everyone knows that it developed early after all. For a while, the venue was noisy, and even the fear of Wang Xuan was forgotten.
, we are all discussing how to raise money.
Wang Xuan didn't say anything and just watched quietly until he felt that the heat was almost gone. Then Wang Xuan coughed twice. These two sounds were full of internal energy and made everyone's ears buzz.
Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, Wang Xuan continued: "Everyone knows that I, Wang Xuan, have money, and I have a bank under my name, Huaxia Wangxuan Bank. This time, in order to give back... ahem,
In order to support GD Province and not widen the gap with Fujian, banks can now accept your loans!"
loan?
usury?
The venue fell into silence again, and everyone looked at each other. What does this mean? Do you want to force everyone to borrow money from him?
Damn it, do you still have humanity? Doing such a thing is unethical!
Can I borrow this kind of money?
Nine in and thirteen out, none of you understand this. Otherwise, how could the land be in the hands of the major families bit by bit? Most of them are not relying on loans!
Now I heard that Wang Xuan is going to lend money to everyone, everyone looks ugly. It is impossible to borrow money. I will never borrow money from you in this life. Even if I don't buy land, I will starve to death. I won't borrow money from you.
Borrowing money!
We are all bad at this trick, how could we possibly be fooled by you!
Seeing no one responded, Wang Xuan was in a daze for a moment. What's going on? Is there still a time when the bank can't lend money?
Now he has too much gold and silver. After Annan's search, including Guangdong's and what he had accumulated before, there are more than 80 million... Although he spent a lot, he can make up for it with taxes.
It would be a waste to have so much money in your hands if you don’t use it!
"How is it? How are you thinking about it? Who wants to borrow money!"
"Hehe..." "Hehe..."
Being stared at by Wang Xuan, people couldn't help but squeeze out a burst of dry laughter on their faces, but they had to express their opinions on the matter of borrowing money.
Until Wang Xuan got a little annoyed, he pointed at someone and asked: "Tell me, how much land can you buy, and do you need to borrow money?"
The person who was pointed out suddenly stiffened his face and secretly cursed himself for being unlucky. However, under the pressure of Wang Xuan's eyes, he had to stand up and said: "If we can prepare more than one million vehicles, we can purchase about 130,000 acres of land. As for borrowing money,
This... this, this is all I can do, to live up to Mr. Wuzhou's good intentions, do what you can, and do what you can."
At the end of his speech, he no longer dared to look into Wang Xuan's eyes, and a cold sweat broke out on his face involuntarily.
"Are you sure you don't need to borrow money?" Wang Xuan's tone was a little cold.
"Then, then, let's borrow 10,000 taels!?" Forced to have no choice but to endure it, the head of the family borrowed 10,000 taels and paid them back immediately. He just treated the money as feeding the dogs. Look at Wang Xuan's behavior.
If he dared to say that he would not borrow it, Wang Xuan might get angry on the spot.
Wang Xuan was immediately outraged. Damn it, ten thousand taels, are you kidding me? Ten thousand taels are of no use!
But borrowing money is a matter of personal freedom after all. Although Wang Xuan felt that it was for their own good and that cooperation would benefit both parties, the other party was not on the right track and he did not do anything. He could only look at the person next to him.
"I'll borrow, let's borrow 20,000..." 20,000 is a lot in their opinion. According to the rules, if you borrow 20,000, you will get only 18,000, but when you return it, it will be 12,600, inside and outside.
I lost 8,000 liang of silver in just one month. Such a mountain of gold and silver is not enough!
As this man spoke, the sound of borrowing money suddenly came to mind in the venue. When he heard it, they all shouted for a loan of 20,000 yuan. Wang Xuan was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot!
Oh shit!
You guys, are you looking down on me?
This is looking down on me, right?
Sun Chengzong, who was standing behind Wang Xuan, also frowned. He felt that there was some misunderstanding here. He also knew Wang Xuan's plan, but the atmosphere at the scene was not right?
His eyes swept across the crowd in the venue. Suddenly, Sun Chengzong remembered something. His family was pretty good. Although it was not aristocratic, it could be considered a big family. He did know one thing. They lent money, also called
Usury money has always been nine in and thirteen out. Don’t these people think that the Lord does the same thing, right?
Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong quickly pulled Wang Xuan and whispered a few words in his ear. Wang Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then became even more angry!
Damn it, when I was a gangster on Heri Island, I didn't even let us loan sharks. What kind of status do I have now, can I do such a thing!?
In any case, he is a successor to socialism. He has received nine years of compulsory education and understands the core values of socialism. How can he do such a thing in the face of severe crackdowns?
"Quiet the hell!" Wang Xuan roared angrily, causing the whole house to tremble. Everyone covered their ears and felt like their eyes were covered with flowers.
"Damn it, you bunch of bastards, don't give me face, right? You judge a gentleman with a villain's heart, am I a loan shark!? Think of me as you dirty thing."
Wang Xuan yelled like this, which made everyone stunned. The bastards and so on were automatically ignored by everyone. They are all broad-minded people. They pay attention to talking about it and pretending that they didn't hear it. But this
What does it mean not to release loan sharks?
"Hua Xia Wangxuan Bank is a regular bank. Loans also need to be guaranteed. Not just anyone can borrow. You can borrow as much as you want. The annual interest rate is only two cents. Do you think I am as evil as you? Nine in and thirteen out.
, what the hell are you rolling around in the moon knot!"
With an annual interest rate of two cents, it shouldn’t be considered a loan shark, right? Well, it definitely isn’t a loan shark!
Ten births and twelve returns? The end of the year? In an instant, all the family heads figured it out clearly, so good?
Everyone was in disbelief. The interest rate was so low, it was simply unheard of!
At this moment, Sun Chengzong took a step forward and said loudly: "My master's intention is to give everyone support, speed up the construction progress of Annan, and develop Annan as quickly as possible, instead of wasting time because of lack of money.
It’s just a cutscene, so that’s why I did it. After all, when it comes to money alone..."
Sun Chengzong looked around the audience, and his tone suddenly became high-spirited, "I'm not targeting anyone, I just want to say that everyone here... is rubbish!"
Of course, the Chinese language is broad and profound, and that’s not what Sun Chengzong originally said, but that’s what he meant.
In one sentence, everyone was submissive. Everyone looked at each other a few times, and they were all a little helpless, right? This time everyone plundered all their wealth to buy land from Wang Xuan, and all the money went to their treasury.
Inside.
If you add all of them together, you won’t have as much money as the other person!
After being scolded, these families relaxed and smiled. They began to express their mistakes and started clamoring to borrow money.
Borrowing money is to buy land, and buying land is to farm. After one year, you can easily pay back all the money. This is not the same as getting nothing.
Such a good thing, if you don’t borrow it, you will be a grandson!
