Quan Yuxun took a quick glance.
Among those who participated in the video conference were the three dukes among the four great noble families. Except for the Grand Duke Li, all the others were present.
There was also the clan leader of the Ministry of Clan Affairs and a small clerk.
He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Greetings, my Lord Duke, Lord Zong Ling, and Ms. Xing."
Quan Yuxun is a man who cares about appearances. No matter what he thinks in his heart, on the surface, he is equally polite to everyone and his etiquette is impeccable.
That Ms. Xing is a clerk in the Cabinet's Real Estate Property Management Department.
The people who came to her small office today were all very well-connected.
She went from being amazed and frightened at the beginning to being numb and indifferent later on, and she could even confront the clan leader of the clan house head-on. She felt that her life had reached a new level.
Until Quan Yuxun appeared, with a typical "Quan Yuxun smile" and a soft and polite "Ms. Xing", she was suddenly at a loss, blushing and flustered...
In the end, he could only lower his head deeply and snort "hmm" as a return gesture.
Everyone else present was preoccupied with something, and no one noticed her abnormality, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
We can’t embarrass ourselves in front of Chief Quan!
And Quan Yuxun didn't pay attention to her condition.
In fact, Quan Yuxun has been a very proud person since he was a child.
He had never paid attention to a woman's expression or mentality, except for Xia Chujian.
And in his mind, Xia Chujian was just treated as a bounty hunter at the beginning.
But later on, I didn’t know when I got stuck in the mud…
He chose to stay in the remote Mulan City on Guiyuan Star to cultivate his mind and character, hoping that he could escape from the "quagmire" of Xia Chujian and no longer be trapped by her.
Now back in a familiar place, he immediately became energetic.
"Everyone, what can I do for Quan?"
Mr. Quan immediately recounted what had just happened in a concise and concise manner.
What’s particularly coincidental is that Quan Yuxun has also been paying attention to the ownership of this manor!
When he learned that this manor did not actually belong to the Tantai royal family, but to an unknown "Qisha" and his descendants, a huge wave of confusion rose in his mind.
How is this possible? !
Such a huge forest of exotic beasts occupies one tenth of the area of the entire Guiyuan Star!
What kind of property is this?!
If Xia Chujian knew, she would be so surprised...
Quan Yuxun inexplicably thought of Xia Chujian again, and even couldn't help but simulate Xia Chujian's mentality in his mind.
This simulation suddenly gave him a funny thought, and he pondered, "...Does this deed specify how the property tax is to be paid?"
"Does the owner of this forest need to pay land taxes over the years?"
"If necessary, have you paid it?"
This is a very critical issue!
Because he firmly believed that if Xia Chujian knew that the Exotic Beast Forest did not belong to the Dantai royal family but to an ordinary person, he would definitely subconsciously ask back, "How much is the land tax for this forest?"
For ordinary people, the most critical point about owning real estate is whether they can pay the property tax on time.
If you fail to pay the property tax, the empire can auction your property.
Even if you owe a penny, the empire can use that penny to auction off your property!
This is the real estate law of the Beichen Empire.
After Quan Yuxun said this, the clan leader of the clan affairs office, Tan Taiqing, immediately said excitedly, "That's right!"
"Ten thousand years! The land tax has already reached an astronomical figure!"
"If he hadn't handed it over, this exotic beast forest would have belonged to the empire long ago."
"According to Imperial Law, the Tantai Imperial Family has the right of first refusal to purchase unowned properties within the empire!"
"So this exotic beast forest should still belong to our Dantai royal family!"
Mr. Quan said lightly: "But we have talked about this before."
"This forest of exotic beasts belongs to Qisha and her descendants."
"Then the production of these ten thousand years should also belong to them."
"But in fact, the Dantai royal family took away ten thousand years of production."
"Including the annual Blood Qilin payment, the total amount is far higher than ten thousand years of property taxes."
"So if the two amounts cancel each other out, the Dantai royal family should not only help Qisha and her descendants pay the tax, but also make up for the shortfall between the two."
Tan Taiqing couldn't help but look at Quan Yuxun: "Master Quan, is that so?"
Quan Yuxun nodded reservedly and said, "The Imperial Real Estate Act follows the legal principle of equality of rights and obligations."
"The Exotic Beast Forest has to pay taxes. It's an obligation."
"The corresponding rights are that the cash crops produced in the Exotic Beast Forest belong to the landowner."
"If there's a piece of land with no cash crops, that is, no corresponding rights, the property tax will be very low, so low that it's just symbolic."
"The Exotic Beast Forest is certainly not such a place. So, since the Dantai royal family has taken away the produce for so many years, they naturally have to compensate the owners of the Exotic Beast Forest with equal economic benefits."
"And we need to take into account the inflation over the past 10,000 years and recalculate the economic benefits."
Quan Yuxun talked freely and explained the legal issues related to the Forest of Strange Beasts.
Tan Tai Qing was still struggling. "But they also said that the ownership of this exotic beast forest is one of the fundamental laws of the empire... I have never heard of such a fundamental law. Has Chief Quan heard of it?"
