Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

The merchants were dumbfounded. Wouldn't they have to pay customs duties if they wanted to take away the goods they had stockpiled before?

"Don't worry, after paying the tariffs, you will still earn money, but not as much as you did at the beginning." Liu Feng said calmly.

As soon as the tariff came out, the relationship between the two was reversed. These businessmen can only earn some hard money, but it is also a little bit better than their previous business.

As for hoarding goods, it is no longer necessary. I used to think that the more goods you hoard, the more you will earn. Now that the tariffs come out, they are worried that hoarding too much goods will block their funds.

An Li's eyes lit up behind her, and she quickly started writing in the notepad. Now that she has seen how powerful the young master is, the matter of her frowning was easily resolved in this way.

The merchant has to pay the tariff, otherwise the goods will be rotten in his hands, and the city lord's mansion collects two taxes, and both the seller and the buyer have collected the tax.

Of course, first of all, the buyer will have a large number of goods to leave Xiyang City, and then there will be taxes. Otherwise, there will be no tax when buying things in Xiyang City.

The merchants understood that today is simply a 'Hongmen Banquet'. After they go out, others will think that they have received a large purchase limit. When the tariff comes out, everyone present will attract firepower.

Solo really sighed, is there really such a smart and talented person in this world?

Tariffs can perfectly protect the local market and increase the income of the City Lord's Mansion, which is the best of both worlds.

Suo Luo was suddenly a little glad that Liu Feng was not working in the capital, otherwise businessmen in the world would pay a lot of taxes, such as his caravan.

Chapter 0173 Solo's request.

"Okay, you guys continue to eat. I still have some government affairs to deal with, so I will leave for now." Liu Feng stood up and made an excuse at random.

One of today's goals: Tariffs have been reached, as long as the city lord's mansion announces the tariff regulations, the merchants present may be the first to pay the taxes, then other small merchants will have to pay, and dare not refuse to pay .

In this way, most of Xiyang City's tax laws and regulations have been completed, and the rest will be added slowly, such as the luxury tax in the future.

Liu Feng stood up, and An Li, Nicole, and Tees also stood up. They were ashamed to see how these businessmen were eating.

Good-looking people eat rudely, which is also very pleasing to the eye; ugly people eat rudely, it is like a pig eating, and these businessmen are that kind of pigs.

"Wait, Lord City Master, I have something to discuss with you."

Solo quickly got up and shouted, "It won't take up a lot of your time."

"Come on!" Liu Feng didn't stop walking, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the second goal of today was hooked.

With joy in his eyes, Solo quickly got up and chased after him, leaving a group of businessmen looking at each other, what's the matter? But they are not qualified to go together, you must know that Solo is a businessman several levels higher than them.

Liu Feng and others left the big box and walked in the aisle. Solo was about to speak several times, but finally shut his mouth obediently.

"Accompany me to a place first, and we'll talk slowly." Liu Feng said softly.

"Yes!" Solo nodded.

Along the way, Solo was surprised to find that the business of Zuixiaolou was really booming. Thinking of the taste of the dishes just now, it was normal for the business to be booming. He decided that as long as he lived in Xiyang City, he would always eat here.

When he got down to the lobby, Solo was really shocked. The tables on the entire first floor were full, and everyone was chatting excitedly, shouting about the delicious dishes.

Liu Feng glanced around, nodded in satisfaction, and sighed, "When the commoners have meat to eat, it will be the moment when I, the city lord, will be truly rich."

Everyone has meat to eat, which means that the monthly income of each commoner is more than one hundred copper coins; at that time, the tax revenue alone could fill Liu Feng's internal treasury, and it was still gold coins.

"..." Solo was at a loss for words, he didn't know how to answer this sentence, let the common people eat meat every time, this is really too idealistic.

You must know that even the civilians in the capital, many people are hungry and full, let alone this remote area.

"Let's go!" Liu Feng walked out of Zuixiao Tower and got into the carriage.

Solo could only sit in the front of the carriage, where the coachman sat. He was not allowed to enter the carriage. After all, there were three female companions inside, although two were female orcs.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

The wolf team escorted the carriage to the south of Xiyang City, where there was the workshop area.

...

Eliza was taken by the waiter to a box numbered 33. This box is very small. There are only two chairs outside a round table. This is a single and double box, the smallest in Zuixiao Building. box.

"This is our menu. What do you think you need?" The waiter handed over an exquisite menu. The cover was carved with a wooden board, and inside were some patterned fonts printed on the engraved board.

"Okay!" Eliza took the menu curiously, flipped through it, and muttered in a low voice, "Vegetarian dishes, 3 copper coins; lean meat stir-fried vegetables, 10 copper coins... braised pork, 20 steel coins per person..."

The more she looked at the back, the more surprised Eliza was. The menus behind were all dishes worth more than a hundred copper coins. For example, there was a dish of roasted whole lamb that cost three silver coins.

Of course, there are also cheap ones, and the prices on the first few pages of the menu are quite reasonable, although there is no name of a dish that she has heard of before, so Eliza decided to try it.

"This braised pork, braised pork ribs, I want a single serving, and another tomato and egg drop soup..." Eliza ordered six dishes in a row, and she stopped embarrassingly under the surprised eyes of the waiter.

"Okay, please wait a moment, and I will serve you right away." The waiter said politely.

"Garji..." The waiter left with the menu.

"Huh... ordering food is really addictive, I always feel like trying everything." Eliza rubbed her belly regretfully, but it's a pity that her belly is not the orc's big belly.

The wait was tormenting, and Eliza sat on the chair and writhed restlessly, glancing at the steamed buns on the table from time to time.

"Kagji..."

After a while, the door opened, and the waiter came in with the dishes, and all six dishes were placed on the table.

"Guest, your dishes are ready. If you have any questions, I'll be right outside the door. You just need to call."

The waiter smiled lightly, then left, and helped close the door.

"Gulu..."

Eliza's throat throbbed, she smelled the smell of meat, etc., her saliva was secreted rapidly.

There are three kinds of chopsticks, forks, and spoons in the tray. Unlike Liu Feng who doesn't give forks to those businessmen, but only chopsticks, in order to promote chopsticks, Liu Feng will also play tricks on people.

Eliza looked at the two wooden sticks in the tori suspiciously. She picked up the fork and started to move. A big mouthful of braised pork stuffed into her mouth, which made Eliza's eyes widen.

"Okay, it's delicious, it's so delicious..." Eliza could swear that this was the best meat she had ever eaten, and it didn't have the salty, bitter smell of other meat boiled in salt water.

"Delicious, wow! This is also delicious..."

"This soup is also delicious, how come the food here is so delicious?"

"..."

"belch!!"

Eliza hiccupped and slumped on the chair. She rubbed her stomach and felt full again.

"There are so many dishes left, what should I do? Do I have to throw them away?" Eliza looked at the leftovers on the table, but she was reluctant to eat them all.
