Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Therefore, Guo Ye will wantonly increase the tax rate and extract heavy taxes.

And what he promised Samba was that as long as this large super wholesale market operates in the future, Samba will share [-]% of the tax rate collected.

This is a huge and considerable profit, and Samba has long been tempted like scratching his heart.

Now that it has been confirmed that Guo Ye will be in charge of Tuva City and the border for hundreds of miles, how can Samba stay calm?

This accelerated the further advance implementation of this plan.

Guo Ye thought about it in his heart, and Samba was eager to see through it, and the room fell silent for a while.

After the tea soup in the samba porcelain bowl was drained, Guo Ye said, "Tell me, where is the best place to build the markets in these two countries?"

Samba's eyes rolled around, and suddenly he had his own little idea in his heart, and he pretended to be generous and said: "Otherwise, I will give up [-] acres of land and build the markets of these two countries in my territory. how?"

Pull dick!

After listening to Samba's proposal, Guo Ye immediately made this definition in his mind.

What the hell was Samba thinking, he saw through it at a glance.

Naturally, he would not agree to this proposal, so he said embarrassingly: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, to build a two-country market, there must be supporting facilities, such as restaurants, inns and other places to eat and live. These people who do business will definitely not stay You can leave in the last day, it can be as short as three to five days, and it can be as long as three to five months. Therefore, the supporting facilities must keep up."

Such a detailed analysis immediately poked at Samba's weakness. Damn it, it is necessary to invest such a large amount of money before seeing the money. Isn't this killing the head of Samba?

No, no, this matter cannot be taken care of.

Just when Samba was a little hesitant and timid, and wanted to throw this burden back to Guo Ye, he only heard Guo Ye say leisurely:

"I do have a place, which is most suitable for building a two-country market."

Samba was overjoyed to hear that, and urged again and again: "Oh? Where is that? Tell me, tell me..."

Chapter 255

When Sangba heard it, he looked forward to it and asked questions again and again.

Guo Ye slowly spat out four words: "Ali Tucheng!"

"Uh……"

Immediately, Samba's face was startled, Ali Tucheng?

As the saying goes, people are old spirits, ghosts are old spirits, Samba, the Tubo fox, is not at all ambiguous, and he immediately guessed that Guo Ye and himself have the same thoughts.

What are you thinking?

To put it bluntly, both of them want to build the markets of the two countries on their own land, the purpose is to facilitate the control of the markets.

The market is built on whose side, whoever has the control and initiative.

To give the simplest example, if the market is built on the territory of Samba, it is equivalent to being built in the Tubo Kingdom, so can Guo Ye hand over the heavy taxation to Samba?As long as it is handed over to this old fox, it will be eaten up and wiped off by him, leaving only the bones and dregs on the ground.

At that time, no matter how dissatisfied Guo Ye was, he would not dare to lead his troops to cross the border and go to Samba's territory, right?That is the territory of another country, leading troops to cross the border, isn't this a light start to the war?At that time, a letter of credence from the Tubo people will be sent to Chang'an.

He, Guo Ye, couldn't eat and walked around.

Similarly, building the bazaar in Ali Tucheng, Samba also had the same concerns as Guo Ye.

Guo Ye looked at Samba and listened to his proposal, neither objecting nor expressing his opinion. He wondered in his heart, the old fox is probably going to engage in ideological struggle now, right?

It seems that we still need to give him some serious information, otherwise Samba's temperament that regards money as his life is not so easy to loosen.

Then, as if talking to himself, Guo Ye counted with his fingers: "Winehouses, teahouses, inns, restaurants and other supporting facilities for food and accommodation must invest a lot of money. This is not profitable, but it is necessary to invest so much money first." A large sum of money, this does not seem to be my style. Or—”

Guo Ye tentatively asked: "How about, Samba leader, the market is built on your territory? And you have so many slaves in your hands, you can use your slaves for free! Want to do it well?" Such a large market cannot be successfully run without a large amount of money and manpower invested in it."

When Samba heard that he was going to invest a huge sum of money in the matching package, his brows were already furrowed and he was depressed.Then I heard that Guo Ye wants to use his slaves for free, how can he suffer from this loss?

Grandma, Samba looked at Guo Ye's calculating shrewdness at this time, and hated in his heart, he really used the Tubo leader as a cadre, didn't he?

You are smart, and I, Samba, am not an idiot.

Then he immediately shook his head and refused: "No, no, no, what is Mr. Guo talking about? I think it is the most correct choice to build the markets of the two countries in Ali Tucheng. Besides, your country is the celestial dynasty Shangbang, a state of etiquette, if such a grand market is built on top of our small foreign country, wouldn't it lose the demeanor of your great country?"

Damn it, Guo Ye suddenly felt angry and funny, that bastard Samba dared to say anything insincere for his own selfishness.

However, since Samba retreated despite the difficulties, he surrendered the matter.

He can't be too hypocritical.

So he pretended to be reserved and asked back: "Since the head of Samba has said so, then I will reluctantly do it?"

When Sangba heard that Guo Ye agreed to build the market in Ali Tucheng, he was overjoyed, nodded repeatedly, and said righteously: "It should be, it should be, the Tang Dynasty is the kingdom of heaven, and Mr. Guo is the dragon and phoenix among people." , those who are capable should work harder."

Thinking that the trickery has succeeded, the wicked smile on his face is full of bad water.

Seeing this, Guo Ye secretly laughed in his heart, and didn't point it out, and he generously gave Samba a little sweetness first, and said loudly: "Well, after the market in Ali Tucheng is completed, there must be a gathering of Tubo merchants. The headman of Samba will send a thousand slaves to serve those Tubo merchants in the city."

"This……"

Samba was obviously hesitant, it would not be worthwhile to send slaves there for free.

Before Guo Ye finished speaking, he continued to add: "Of course, we can't let the headman of Samba reveal these individuals in vain. I will recruit these slaves from you in the name of Ali Tucheng. Well, each slave is tentatively scheduled for one month. One tael of wages. I send someone to send the salaries of the thousand slaves to the headman of Samba every month. As for whether the slaves can get paid, it depends on the mood of the headman of Samba. How about it?"

"what?"

Sure enough, Samba's expression changed again, and he put on a smile all over his face. How could he not know that it was Guo Ye who gave him money in a different direction.

1000 taels of silver per month was given to him by Guo Ye for nothing.

As long as the money is in his hands, how could he still spit it out?Are slaves still paid?

Just a joke, in Tubo, I have never heard of any slave who can get a penny of wages from his master.

Immediately, Samba stood up, came to the side excitedly, hugged him again, and praised: "My friend, thank you for your generosity, you have gained Samba's friendship!"

Guo Ye was suddenly embraced by Samba, and before his body could react, a soaring smell of sheep came to his nostrils from grandma's.

The samba of the dog day!

Guo Ye pushed him away with a smile on his face, and then changed the subject: "Leader Samba, let's settle this matter then?"

Samba said: "It's settled, it's settled, it's Ali Tucheng!"

Guo Ye said: "Okay, it's a deal."

Next, Guo Ye simply struck while the iron was hot, and together with Samba discussed the date and name of the construction of the market one by one.
