Chapter 94

Under the half-covered crescent moon, Li Peijun took advantage of the flickering candles to illuminate the case and wrote quickly.

Thinking about the skill points obtained after completing the task, he now has 10 skill points to be allocated, and his intelligence and charisma have also increased by two points.

Li Peijun moved 8 skill points at one time, and directly upgraded the design and casting to the full level. A beam of powdery golden light jumped out from the holographic image, wrapped around his two palms, and after a flash, it was Disappear.

"So? I am Lu Ban alive now? Da Vinci possessed?" Li Peijun raised his hands and looked at him, no different from usual.

"It doesn't matter, it's important to work."

Li Peijun wanted to use the basic constitution of the East India Company in the 17th century as a blueprint to formulate the Chamber of Commerce Convention to be implemented in Hafleur in the future.

The share responsibility system has a long history. In ancient Rome, there was a tax collector system. In the medieval chambers of commerce, there was also a prototype system similar to the shareholding system of modern companies. Everyone shared risks and benefits based on their investment status.

Li Peijun also explained the meaning of the company in a serious manner at the beginning, and said complacently while writing: "An organization that engages in commercial activities for the purpose of profit."

"Hey, that's not right, what am I writing this for?" Li Peijun quickly deleted the opening sentence after realizing that he had made a stupid mistake.

First, the Harfleur Chamber of Commerce exercises the power of the lord on behalf of the lord, rather than the Chamber of Commerce itself having power.

Li Peijun remembers to put this most important sentence first, which means that he is the supreme ruler in law.

"Next, the second point, the second point..." When he was about to start writing to determine the franchise rules and authority limits, Li Peijun got stuck, and the quill pen hung in mid-air and could not fall.

"Unexpectedly, I have no experience at all."

Li Peijun, who had been thinking for a long time without any results, directly gave up his pen and surrendered, like a scumbag who had racked his brains and had no way to give up the exam after writing the solution in the exam room.

"Let's talk about it later, don't worry about these complicated things."

Li Peijun flew straight into the soft bed, and the fluffy wool gently brushed against his skin, urging him to sleep.

Since his territory has grown, Li Peijun feels that the burden on his body has become heavier. The three of Bernard will go to have fun from time to time in their spare time, while he is completely absorbed in work.

It's like setting an alarm clock in the morning. Now Li Peijun doesn't have to ask others to wake him up. He has been the earliest one to get up every day these days.

After grabbing a few pieces of not-so-hard bread from the kitchen to satisfy his hunger, Li Peijun found the casual clothes of a dock waiter in the utility room, and put on a farmer's straw hat. Even the simple cross-dressing was completed.

The end of the month is also the busiest day for municipal agencies. Many backlogs of government affairs have to be dealt with, and taxes for the next month must be collected.

Most of the civilians in the city pay the tax in kind. In addition, the merchants have to pay an additional tax of belief. They say that God has given you wealth, and you have to give a part of it in return. It is actually a scam to collect money. people tricks.

Most of the coastal cities and towns are itinerant vendors, and few have fixed stalls.Generally speaking, when dealing with itinerant traders, most of the aristocrats levied an entrance tax. Calculated according to the number of times they entered the city, they paid a sum each time they entered the city, and most of them were settled in cash or hard currency.

Most of the merchants who settled in the towns also have some wealth, and they can buy properties in the city and settle down. Among them, there are many young and promising leaders, and there are also many time-honored brands that have been in business for several generations.

Relying on their wealth and power, these wealthy businessmen have won the favor of many secular nobles. Because of their relatively better stability, the rulers are sometimes more tolerant towards them.

Li Peijun hid his head in an inconspicuous corner, with his head tilted slightly, watching his subordinates' daily work silently. This behavior would definitely be regarded as a pickpocket or a perverted stalker until now.

Two tax collectors walked in front, holding rosters in their hands and preparing to collect taxes along the street. Behind them were a few attendants pushing carts. The racks were still empty, so the work must not have started yet.

"Mr. Avery, it's time to pay this month's tax." The tax collector stepped into the door of the first merchant and started a busy day of work.

Li Peijun couldn't hear what was said in it from a distance, just looking at his expression and voice, it seemed that the big guys were having a good conversation, and it looked like they were here to make things happen.

"It seems that the situation is not bad, I don't know what will happen next." Li Peijun has been waiting outside the door, waiting for them to change places.

"Mr. Avery, excuse me, thank you for cooperating with our work." After the tax collectors finished their work, they bowed to thank them, ordered a few attendants to load the collected objects into the bucket cart, and continued to collect taxes along the road.

The next shop to be confiscated sells aquatic products. Li Peijun has the impression that no one cares about the door he passed by the few times before, probably because the business is bleak.

"Mr. Michael, it's time to pay this month's taxes." With the same opening remarks, the tax collectors looked at the data at hand and couldn't help but frown, "Huh? You didn't pay your taxes last month either. "

Michael broke out in a cold sweat, begging for mercy repeatedly: "My lord, the business of my store is bleak. When I expropriated it, I said that I would not accept aquatic products, but I can't sell this batch of goods. They are all made into salted fish and dried. I am so sorry." You smashed it in your own hands, see if you can give it a few days of grace."

If such a thing as delayed payment of taxes happened during the term of the former leader, this guy would basically kill people to seal the shop.

Li Peijun also emphasized service awareness at the meeting yesterday, but today he plans to take a good look at this drama.

The tax collectors were taking notes, and one of them had an ugly expression on his face. Looking at the restless brushwork from a distance, he knew that this guy would definitely lose his composure later.

"Look, this is the spirit of the meeting that the lord emphasized during the meeting yesterday." Another noble businessman took out a piece of leather from his pocket, which looked like he had made notes yesterday.

"Huh? What meeting? I don't know why the lord is having a meeting. Let me see." Of course this secular nobleman didn't know, after all, yesterday's meeting was specially prepared for businessmen.

Looking at the wrinkled leather, I saw a few large characters neatly written on the inscription: Serve the civilians.

The nobleman looked at it carefully, scanning from top to bottom, and there were a few small rules underneath.

[-]. The nobles of Hafleur should work with the lords to serve the common people wholeheartedly.

[-]. In daily work, we must have a humble and courteous attitude, and treat every job seriously and responsibly.

[-]. Actively solve difficulties for the common people and think what the common people think.

.....
After the secular nobleman read it, Monk Zhang Er was puzzled and asked suspiciously, "This? Did the lord say it?"

The merchant nobleman smiled, "If you don't believe me, you can take this manuscript to ask the lord for clarification, and then you will know whether what I said is true or not."

"Okay, just do it." This old-fashioned secular nobleman had already begun to doubt his life.

The two politely asked the specific reasons for the arrears, and also helped to give some targeted construction suggestions, but left empty-handed.

"Good guy, it looks like the effect is good." Li Peijun deliberately lowered the brim of his hat to peek at what just happened, leaning against the wall and secretly exclaimed.
