  Chapter 885 Facilitating business and benefiting the people

  Mu Yan returned to the mansion from outside. After sweeping over the guards who were staring at the posts in the dark, the corners of their mouths twitched.

  Mu Zhan wanted to send people to follow him in order to find Jiao Zan's whereabouts, but he didn't know whether he was confident or underestimated him. I'm afraid the news I got is that he hasn't been out of the house for a day.

  Shi Shi ran back to Cuihuang Courtyard.

   "Are you back? Jiao Zan released?"

  Mu Yan nodded, walked up to her and touched her belly, "Why don't you like to move these days?" Somewhat worried.

   "Like me, I'm a lazy one. I don't like to move in hot weather." Pulling him to sit down, I asked about Jiao Zan, "Isn't it sent to the capital? Are you afraid that he will bite back?"

   "He didn't dare, and he didn't have the ability."

   "Didn't you collect his criminal evidence before and send it to the Ministry of War? Then he can go back and continue to serve?"

   "The things are with my father-in-law. I will send an express letter later, and my father-in-law knows what to do when he receives the letter. Although I saved Jiao Zan's life, I asked him to go to the capital to resign and remove all his positions."

   "Oh, he will?"

   "This is the only way for him to go." After speaking, I remembered Jiao Zan kowtowing to beg him...

   Afraid that he knew there was no way out, Jiao Zan kowtowed and begged for mercy, 'Please allow me to go to the border guard, no matter which family, please allow me to be a **** in the guard. I am determined to be in the army, and I want to kill all foreign enemies, and this is the only wish. If the son refuses, I will live like a withered...'

  Huo Xi sighed after hearing this, "Jiao Zan is a man who can bend and stretch."

Mu Yan nodded, "Yes. I have thought about how to deal with him before. He is brave and good at fighting, and has repeatedly made military exploits. He has been in the position of commander of the fourth rank in only ten years. Credit can also be promoted to third-rank commander and acquaintance."

  This person has made achievements and merits. Mu Yan is a person who loves talents.

Huo Xi sighed: "With his skill and ability, even if he starts as a pawn, he can't stop him from being promoted. With his previous connections, it won't take too long. You can rest assured that he will be sent back to the army. Middle? Aren’t you afraid that he will become the help of Jun’s family again?”

"I respected him as a man before releasing him to the army. And he knew that I was in my hands and his future was in my hands. He would never get involved with the Jun family again. I dealt with Jiao Zan , is to break Jun’s arm. And once Jun’s wealth is cut off, it is to cut off Mu Zhan’s wings.”

   "Okay, as long as you know what's in your mind."

  The husband and wife began to talk about other things. After a while, after hearing the report from the servants, Shopkeeper Yu and Gen Qi both came. Huo Xicai got up.

   Seeing Mu Yan following, he squinted at him, "You don't need to go to the study to be a director?"

  Mu Yan looked at her stomach, held her hand and refused to let go, "I'm afraid you're working too hard, I have to keep an eye on you."

Fine. Follow if you love.

  The husband and wife arrived at the study, and Yu Lu and Gen Qi came in one after the other.

  Hearing that the credit payment has been recovered, Yu Lu was overjoyed, took the box and looked at it, holding it tightly in his arms with joy.

  Huo Xi ordered: "Take this payment to the South and North Merchant Company, and hand it over to the accountant for entry." Yu Lu should be.

"In addition, the original time limit for credit sales to traders in the city will be extended from quarterly bids to annual bids. Short bids for credit sales to merchants in Yunnan can be extended up to two quarterly bids. For city vendors, it is only necessary to verify that they are indeed citizens of the city. , can increase credit release.”

  Mu Yan and Gen Qi were taken aback, but they didn't speak.

  Yu Lu disagreed a little, "Can you increase the credit release of goods to the city vendors? Give them the annual bid? Ma'am, this is probably to increase the amount of bad debts."

  Yu Lu didn't know much about the inside story of Li Daitao's death. At first, when he thought that the goods sold on credit through his hands were worth more than one million taels, he was actually cheated, and he almost pouted in distress. She pleaded guilty several times in front of Huo Xi and Shizi, and wanted to resign from the position of shopkeeper.

   Now that he has managed to recover the payment for the goods, he has not yet given up his heart. Why not tighten up credit sales and increase credit releases?

   Don’t even need a mortgage?

"Credit release is only for merchants in the city. And not every merchant is like this. There are special ones who can't even take half of their wealth as collateral, and their character and ability are very good. Only credit is released. Because Vendors living in the city have their family members here, they can be checked and controlled, so they are encouraged to sell on credit, and they can sell their goods long distances, so they are given long bids."

  Yu Lu is still thinking about the pros and cons, but Gen Qi has figured out the key points.

   "Madam, is it because the business in the city is sluggish and encourages everyone to go out?"

Huo Xi nodded, "Yes, in today's commercial environment in the city, the original daily grocery stores are almost closed. It is indeed caused by the opening of the North and South Merchant Stores. I am responsible. I will change some business ideas in the future. For the current merchants We need to encourage this kind of behavior and revitalize the local business atmosphere. We need to support the vendors in the city and revitalize the business in the whole of Yunnan.”

   There are a series of preferential policies for her business, and if the local business tax is reduced, the local business can be active and prosperous. There is no need to worry about the loss of merchants, and more people from other places will be attracted to do business here, and finally choose Dianchi to live happily.

   It's just that there is no rush to reduce the local business tax. We have to wait until the Jun family is settled before discussing with the Duke.

  Huo Xi glanced at Mu Yan, Mu Yan understood, and nodded slightly towards her. Huo Xi smiled at him.

  Nowadays, North-South Merchant Co., Ltd. sells on credit almost only to merchants in the province, and releases goods on credit only to local merchants living in the city.

   Now that she has received so much money from Jun's family, it is not easy to use it in the project of benefiting the people, put it in the goods store, and encourage vendors to sell on credit, even if there are a few bad debts, it doesn't matter.

"Since we opened for a few months, we have had a great impact on the merchants in the city. It is time to take some measures to benefit the people and improve business, so as to make a long-term development. If we can make some small contributions to the prosperity of local businesses, it is my generation's business. the duty of a man."

Huo Xi analyzed it, and Yu Lu admired it very much, "Young ones don't think long-term than madam. Hearing Madam's words, I suddenly became enlightened. There is a madam in charge, and the young ones only follow her orders. Don't worry, madam, the young ones know what to do." .”

  After Yu Lu left with the silver in his hands, Gen Qi saw that he had stayed behind, and asked, "Does Madam have any thoughts about Qianzhuang?"

  Huo Xi nodded, "Yes. As for the bank, you managed it well. Over the years, you have spread out a lot and made a lot of money every year. Now, thanks to the support of the bank, those people raised by your young master are living in a decent way."

  Mu Yan raised his eyebrows, and Gen Qi couldn't help but pursed his lips and laughed when he saw it.

"Ma'am, I don't know. The former Marquis and the Marquis left so many people for the young master. A bunch of veterans and remnants are all waiting to reach out to the young master for honor and silver. Although the two marquis left a lot of property, each You spend more money everywhere. Madam, you don’t know that in the early years, the young master was not even willing to give us the monthly silver, but only painted cakes for us and said that he would make up for it in the future. Withhold our silver and use it to support those people in the village. "

  The second class from Liyikan followed the young master in the capital, and the monthly money from the Duke’s wife. They were in Yunnan, but they didn’t even see it. I didn't dare to deduct a little bit privately, saying that I was in charge, not even a buddy, and my life was miserable.

  Huo Xi couldn't stop laughing when he thought of the past.

"Your young master was very stingy when he was young. He bargained for a bottle of crab butter with me, and bought a gift for his aunt. He was so expensive that he couldn't bear to buy a velvet flower of ten taels of silver. He was so distressed that he insisted that I cheated on him." money."

  Seeing the young master turned his face away, Gen Qi laughed even more.
