Chapter 430 Catching a Sheep
"One thousand taels of silver!"
Qin Peiyou gritted his teeth and whispered in He Yanxiu's ear.
Give me money...
He Yanxiu's mind moved, but he still shook his head and held up three fingers, "Three thousand taels."
Although Su Wenxuan had already begun planning for the business between the two of them, business required capital and it would take some time to make money.
He Yanxiu had already taken out all the silver and money he had on him and in his private vault. Now, he was truly clean-handed.
If money comes to your door, of course you have to grab it.
"It's too dark!" Qin Peiyou felt a pang of pain.
He only got four thousand five hundred taels from the sale of his house, which he had prepared for use in July, but now he was going to be ripped off by more than half!
“Cheaper!”
"Two thousand taels." He Yanxiu was not too unscrupulous.
"One thousand...three hundred taels!" Qin Peiyou gritted his teeth and tried hard to swallow the word "five".
"Three thousand taels."
"Two thousand taels."
"Deal." He Yanxiu nodded, "But you have to wait another hour until I finish having dinner with Ping'an County Lord and finish choosing the things."
Su Yujin mentioned just now that she wanted to pick out some cloth to prepare for making new clothes for Lu Bo Niang and Su Yunruo when they came to the capital.
My cousin is indeed my cousin. He is good at calculating and doing business.
"Okay." Qin Peiyou didn't act pretentiously as he needed help from someone and just sat down.
But He Yanxiu raised his eyebrows, "What are you still doing here?"
"Eat." Qin Peiyou was confused by the question.
"You should go back to the palace and wait for news." He Yanxiu said, "and prepare the silver by the way."
And since his plan had been disrupted and the time he spent with Su Yujin had been shortened, he absolutely could not keep Qin Peiyou here to disturb them too much.
Qin Peiyou, "..."
My cousin will always be my cousin.
Never disappoints!
After seeing Qin Peiyou off, He Yanxiu put a pearl glutinous rice ball into Su Yujin's bowl and said, "Let's eat first. I'll go shopping with you later."
"Okay." Su Yujin agreed with a smile, thinking about where to go next.
The sour bamboo shoots and chicken skin soup was served. Xing'an and Aicao helped to serve the soup and looked at each other.
The two masters of the family were in perfect harmony with each other, and the one who had already walked downstairs had a face full of resentment.
The world where only His Highness the Third was injured was achieved! ...
A few days later, people in the streets and alleys of the capital were still talking about it.
However, they no longer discussed the Third Prince's well-known kindness, but the notice posted outside the palace.
The content of the notice was to solicit opinions from the people and to modify the types of taxes, abolish the green seedling tax, or abolish the population tax.
"In my opinion, the Green Marrow Tax should be abolished. This Green Marrow Tax is an additional tax on land, and it is levied when the crops are not yet mature, which is the most difficult time for the people. It is better not to levy it."
"I think that the poll tax should be abolished. This poll tax is levied on a per capita basis. If a family has many people but little land, the poll tax will make the family poor. It would be better not to levy a poll tax, but only a crop tax. After all, if there are crop crops in the fields, it is enough to show that the family has a lot of land and can support such a tax."
"It would be better to abolish both of them and collect more taxes from merchants, which would also make life easier for the people..."
Remarks like these can be heard quite frequently these days.
People discuss these issues all day long on the streets and alleys, and everyone has their own opinion, and they all think they are right.
Seeing people arguing on the street, Qin Peiyou was immediately delighted. "Sure enough, Ping'an County Lord's method is the most effective. These people are only concerned with arguing about these things and have completely forgotten about my business."
"It's just human nature." Su Yujin smiled.
People have limited memory and even less energy to pay attention to other things.
Although Qin Peiyou's "kindness and good deeds" were talked about by many people, it was ultimately the prince's business. Even if he was a prince who did good deeds, it had nothing to do with him and it was not his turn to be responsible.
But the issue of taxation is different, as it involves common people all over the world. Anyone who has read some books and knows some principles will like to make some comments on state affairs. Especially since it is a multiple-choice question, it is even easier for people to take sides and be dissatisfied with each other.
The topic naturally became hot.
With a new topic, the previous one was naturally thrown out of the window.
"Ping'an County Lord has helped you so much, shouldn't you express your gratitude?" He Yanxiu said at the right time.
Qin Peiyou, "..."
The two thousand taels of silver I just gave him are not enough? After scratching his head until it was almost bald, Qin Peiyou chuckled, "I suddenly remembered that before leaving the palace, my mother told me to go back early and have lunch at her palace at noon. It's getting late now, so I have to go back early."
"Excuse me, excuse me."
Qin Peiyou bowed, turned around and left.
As long as he slipped away quickly, no one would pluck his hair! In almost an instant, Qin Peiyou disappeared from the street.
The street was bustling with people coming and going, and there was no trace of Qin Peiyou anymore, as if he had never appeared on this street.
"This Third Prince is really getting more stingy." He Yanxiu shook his head helplessly.
"You're just grabbing the wool you want. No wonder the Third Prince wants to stay away from you." Su Yujin laughed. "Speaking of which, are you short of money recently?"
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Su Yujin always felt that during this period, whenever He Yanxiu heard about money or property, his eyes would light up.
"No." He Yanxiu touched his nose, "I just like it."
Second Master likes money? I have never heard of it before.
Could it be that the closer you are to a red person, the more red you become?
After staying with her for a long time, Erye learned her personality and became more fond of money.
Or...
The Second Master had always loved money, but he had concealed it well in the past and it had never been exposed.
After all, it is normal for the Second Master to love money since he works in the Ministry of Revenue.
After all, the Second Master usually likes things made of pure gold...
…
Because of this, Su Yujin simply took He Yanxiu to Yusuifang and selected some pure gold items to give to He Yanxiu.
A red gold hair crown, a red gold belt hook, a red gold ring...
After returning with these almost blinding objects, He Yanxiu looked at them for a long while with a frown on his face.
In the past, he was the one who gave things to Su Yujin, but now the situation is somewhat reversed.
Not only did he feel quite uncomfortable with such an action, but he used to often give Su Yujin money and gifts because he was concerned that she was short of money and had a hard life.
Now Su Yujin gave him something...
It seems that even Su Yujin knows that he is poor!
He Yanxiu frowned and thought for a long time, then finally rushed into the warehouse and searched for a long time.
