"You don't have to feel unfair!"
Zhou Mi knew that this kind of thing could not be hidden from a smart person like Su Chen. He nodded and said: "This is an opportunity, and since you are going to deal with Xiao Suye, your strength will definitely be improved as soon as possible!"
"If you agree, you will have a reason to talk about the establishment of a special zone!"
"Is not it?"
Zhou Mi looked at Su Chen with interest.
Su Chen took a deep breath and had no choice but to smile bitterly.
He finally understood why someone as smart as Di Qing could only act like a dog under the empress' hands.
Because the empress's thoughts are very terrifying and terrifying.
No wonder it was able to stabilize Dazhou in a short period of time.
This kind of imperial mentality is indeed terrifying.
However, the disadvantages are also very obvious.
The people she supports, or the forces she supports, can easily breed ambition.
Because their growth process is very clear and they know how rights work. They even knew in their hearts that the Empress needed them in order to check and balance the senior ministers in the court.
Of course, there are also some loyal people.
But today’s empress doesn’t dare to gamble, and she can’t gamble!
The hardest thing to see through is the human heart.
Nowadays, Su Chen is an outsider and has not really participated in it. Moreover, there is a high possibility that Su Chen and these people are also fighting on the opposite side.
Therefore, Su Chen is the most suitable candidate.
"good!"
Su Chen was silent for a moment, but nodded slightly. He understood in his heart that this was a matter of danger and opportunity. To put it bluntly, right now, he still lacks a legitimate reason to strengthen himself.
This is why he wants to establish a special zone!
However, now, everything seems to be entangled together.
Zhou Mi gave him a reason, or an opportunity.
However, it is also extremely dangerous!
"I can agree to this matter. However, the court cannot send me away with a simple word of support! I must agree to the special zone's affairs! Moreover, I have other requests!"
"tell me the story!"
Zhou Mi didn't feel surprised either. It would be a shame if Su Chen agreed honestly in this situation.
He will definitely have some other requests.
Zhou Mi was not angry, but felt very satisfied with what Su Chen had done.
After all, no one in this world will help you unconditionally.
If there are conditions, it will make both parties feel more at ease.
"I want to reduce all taxes in Yazhou!"
"In other words, all future income from Yazhou does not need to be paid to the court. If the court needs money and food, it can borrow it from Yazhou, and Yazhou will not calculate any interest!"
“Just borrow it and return it whenever you want!”
Su Chen's voice was very soft: "These must be written very clearly on the paper to form a written text!"
"And put a big seal on it!"
Su Chen's eyes were somewhat solemn as he looked at Zhou Midao in front of him quietly.
"that's all?"
Zhou Mi seemed a little surprised. He originally thought that Su Chen would take advantage of this opportunity to speak loudly. Make a few serious demands.
But unexpectedly, it was just exempted from all taxes in Yazhou.
This is not a problem at all. You must know that Yazhou has not paid any taxes before, and has even defrauded a lot of subsidies for several years.
Thinking of this, Zhou Mi felt a little uncomfortable.
The life in Yazhou is richer than that in Shendu, but it is really abominable that they still defraud these subsidies!
"Yes, that's it!"
Su Chen nodded very seriously.
"This is no problem. I can make the decision and agree to it. However, there will be no subsidies in all aspects of Yazhou in the future. Even if there is a disaster, you still need to deal with it on your own. The imperial court will not make any money for this special zone in Yazhou." Support!"
Although Zhou Mi felt something was not right, he still agreed very seriously.
"It's a deal!"
Su Chen's face suddenly showed a bit of joy.
You know, Yazhou’s tax revenue is not much nowadays. Because Yazhou is basically a local industry, and in the process of growth, these also consume a lot.
However, once the sea route is opened.
That's not as simple as a little benefit.
Su Chen took this opportunity to finalize all these things in the contract. By then, if Zhou Mi even broke his promise, there would be no possibility.
Thinking of this, Su Chen couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Mi looked helpless at the smug look on Su Chen's face. Although Yazhou was now rich, she really didn't care about Yazhou's taxes. Because throughout the Great Zhou, more and more taxes can be collected.
Zhou Mi still has confidence in this point.
…
The rain outside is a little light.
The strong wind was still howling, and even the scattered raindrops, under the influence of the strong wind, would hurt people's bodies when they hit them.
Su Chen stood at the entrance of the cave.
Look outside.
"What are you looking at?"
At this time, Zhou Mi walked over slowly and asked curiously.
Su Chen pointed outside, with an extremely serious look on his face: "The water has risen, and it has risen a lot. This typhoon is bigger than what we have experienced before. Although there should be no problems with the houses, there are many The fertile fields will be submerged by this flood. I am afraid that many people’s efforts throughout the year will be in vain!”
"yes!"
“Natural disasters are merciless!”
At this time, Zhou Mi pondered for a moment: "There is nothing we can do about it. You have borrowed so much food before. Can Yazhou cope with this difficulty?"
Su Chen laughed.
"I'm not afraid of this. Yazhou still has some grain reserves to ensure the daily survival of the people. It's not a big problem. Moreover, you can also buy grain from other places!"
Su Chen shook his head slightly.
"Right!"
Zhou Mi laughed: "Then there's nothing to worry about!"
"Rumble..."
However, as soon as he said these words, there seemed to be a thunderbolt from the sky.
Su Chen hurriedly looked along the place where the thunderbolt sounded.
The whole person was stunned at that moment.
His breathing was a little heavier at that moment, and the sound was still circulating, but this time it was not the sound of thunder. The sound was like muffled thunder, constantly beating Su Chen's heart. .
