MTL - The Alternate World Is Too Dangerous: I Hide In Reality And Rule!-Chapter 183 Great business first year

   Miaoying Temple!

  New Year's Day!

  The incense was very strong. Although it was early morning, the people who came to burn incense were already lined up tens of meters away from the temple gate.

  Different from Qingfeng Temple’s self-collection of incense, which is optional, Miaoying Temple’s first incense on the first day of the first lunar month is the highlight of every year, but anyone who has money will want to fight for it.

   Every year, in order to fight for this incense, the rich people in the entire Canglan County are robbed and bloody.

   "Let me be the trustee?"

  Lin Ye had a weird expression on hearing what his senior brother, the new abbot of Miaoying Temple, senior brother Daoyuan said.

"Junior Brother, the people in Shangyang County know about your wealth. If you make the bid, no one will doubt it. Don't worry, our temple has been in operation for many years. The abbot asked me to be in charge of this area before. In the end I will definitely not let you spend this unjustly money."

  Lin Ye looked at Dao Yuan, and even the abbot felt that this was a waste of money. One can imagine how many people are wronged every year.

   "Brother, in the past, how much was the first incense every year?"

   "In good years, it can reach 3,000 taels, and in bad years, it can reach 3,500 taels."

  Three thousand taels?

  Lin Ye clicked his tongue. According to the money ratio between different worlds and modern times, three thousand taels is equivalent to tens of millions.

  The price of top incense in the real world is not cheap.

  But Lin Ye has been in the different world for so many years, and he knows that although the ratio of money in the different world and the real world is correct, the wealth situation is different.

In another world, the rich and powerful account for ninety-nine percent of the wealth. For the rich, this amount of money is really nothing. Take the old landlords in Shangyang City, it is only a month or two of income. It's just rent money.

  But there was another reason for Lin Ye's strange expression. Did senior brother Dao Yuan make a mistake in estimating his financial resources?

  Not to mention the silver taels he got from the real world, the workshops he bought, the products he sells, and the restaurants in the past year all earn tens of thousands of taels a year.

   "Brother, stop acting, I want this year's top incense, ten thousand taels."

   Monk Daoyuan: …

  Ten minutes later, all the people who came to Miaoying Temple to burn incense knew that this year's first incense has already belonged.

  Mr. Lin from Shangyang City won this year's top incense at a price of 10,000 taels.

   "Mr. Lin, that's no wonder, this is a very kind person."

   "Not only is he a good person, but he also has money. I heard that the pots used by Mr. Lin's family are all made of pure gold."

   "Nonsense, gold doesn't bother people, they obviously use high-quality jade to make it, and the jade is round and doesn't hurt people."

   "Yes, yes, yes, it's Yu. My cousin's third uncle is currently in the Lin family, and he also said so."

  Lin Ye who just walked out of the door and set off home: ...

  …

  …

  The first month of the different world is spent in this calm.

  The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is over.

  The people of Shangyang City received an edict issued by the new dynasty.

  The reform of business registration in the new dynasty.

  Whoever has the original business registration, after paying the business tax, can allow the descendants to participate in the imperial examination.

  As soon as the news came out, the common people didn't care about it, and the shopkeepers of various workshops and commercial firms were the first to seethe, calling the Holy Spirit wise.

Although these merchants made money, the different world has strict status restrictions on merchants. Not to mention not being able to wear good clothes, the most important point is that they are registered as merchants. Even if they know how to make money by doing business, they dare not do business for the sake of future generations, or they are looking for servants from the family to be the shopkeeper in the open.

   Now the policy of the new dynasty has given these businessmen hope. Of course, when such a policy came out, it was also opposed by the gentry.

For many gentry, merchants used to be lowly, and they could control merchants, but now that the status of merchants has improved, it means that their authority has been challenged. Many gentry have already written to oppose it, including some retired officials who live at home. .

  The same is true in Shangyang City. Under the leadership of the gentry, many students smashed up some shops in the city.

  According to what they said, the current court's move is to make the people put their interests first, which will disrupt the foundation of the country.

  Lin Ye, as the largest behind-the-scenes businessman in Shangyang City, naturally bears the brunt of the impact, and many workshops and restaurants have been affected.

   "My lord, in just these three days, the workshop lost hundreds of copper coins."

When Uncle Xu reported the situation, his old face was wrinkled with distress. Although it was his son's money, as a qualified housekeeper, the son's money suffered a loss, which made him suffer more than the loss of his own family's money. uncomfortable.

   "Troublemaking?" Lin Ye sneered again and again. What he was most afraid of was scholars making trouble.

   "Have you investigated the family situation of these scholars?"

   "This is the list given to me by Catcher Yang earlier." Uncle Xu held a list in his hand, which contained all the information of the students who made trouble in Shangyang City, including their home addresses.

"In our workshop, all the relatives of these students who are working in the workshop will be fired, and the reason for the dismissal will be told to them. It is because his relatives smashed the store. In addition, all the family members of these students will not go to the store to buy things. to sell."

   "Will this...will cause the store to lose business?"

   Uncle Xu was a little worried. These students almost included half of the families in the city.

   "It's okay, we can afford it."

  Lin Ye is not worried at all. He is not in another world to make money. While these students are enjoying the convenience of shopping brought by merchants, they also want to destroy their jobs. How can there be such a good thing in the world.

"Notify the bookstore that all pens, inks, papers and inkstones, if the students on the list come to buy them, the price will increase tenfold. As for the yamen, I have already greeted Catcher Yang. The door of the shop is guarded, and any students who dare to make trouble will be arrested."

   "Okay, I will give orders now."

  Xu Bo hurried to convey Lin Ye's order to the shopkeepers of various workshops. Lin Ye took a sip of the fragrant tea, but looked in the direction of the capital.

   "An Zisheng, An Zisheng, I hope you can die well. The only thing I can do is to help you stabilize Canglan County."

  Next day!

  The students in Shangyang City were dumbfounded. They went to the bookstore to buy pens, inks, papers and inkstones, only to find that yesterday a set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones cost only half a copper coin, but today the price has increased to twelve taels.

Twelve taels, many students grit their teeth and can take it out. For some wealthy students, twelve taels is the money to go to the flower house for a drink, but the key is that it is a consumable. No one can buy a tael a month. Two sets.

  They asked the shopkeeper to make a theory, but the shopkeeper said that there are too many people making troubles now, and the workshop has stopped production, so there is only so much left, do you want to buy it or not.

   These students naturally wouldn't buy it, but when they came in the afternoon, they found that the price had increased again, this time it became twenty taels.

The students were in a hurry, and some even wanted to rob the bookstore just like they smashed the shops a few days ago, but just as one or two took the lead and prepared to do it, they were caught by the arresters outside, and directly Sent to the Yamen.
