The two of them returned home and said they had a day off, but after Li Yan came back, she ran to the study to read documents. During her absence, although her deputy was running things at the Central Bank, a lot of information was missing. He took a copy directly and delivered it to her place in Qin Wangzhuang.
So Li Yan wanted to take a look at the main data during the time she left. After all, the end of each year is the busiest time for banks. Although Datang's current data is not much, most of it is large data expenditures and transactions.
But she also needs to be responsible for checking.
Li Ke originally wanted to sleep with Li Yan, but Li Yan said nothing and went to find Wu Xu, An Ning and the others, and then ran away.
Li Ke was a little helpless. There was no point in sleeping by himself. Until Li Ke and the others came back, the girls were naturally waiting at home, and their identities were different from before.
Although they were said to be Li Ke's women in the past, they had no status, but now they are Li Ke's concubines, and the concubines already have status. The key is to see whose concubine it is.
However, Li Ke did not restrict their movements. For example, Yang Anning and the others could go to the theater to work instead of staying at home all day. They could also go to the Huiyue Grand Theater to study the plot, music, etc. together.
Wu Xu is responsible for most of the commercial activities in the Everlasting City of the Tang Dynasty, but of course they are all back today.
"Your Highness, you have worked hard these past few months." Yang Anning stretched out her hand to massage Li Ke's shoulders and said softly.
"It's hard work, but you can still do what you need to do, so you don't break your promise." Li Ke shook his head helplessly and said, "You are doing fine at home."
"What can we do wrong? We have good food and good housing." Yang Anning said with a smile.
"I just want you to be thoughtful, Your Highness." Liu Qingchan added with a smile from behind.
"Go." Yang Anning's face turned red and she slapped her on the arm, "Isn't it the same for you?"
"Then I only think about it from above, it's not like my sister thinks about it all over the body." Liu Qingchan said with a smile.
"Don't you guys need to clean up?" Li Ke was a little dumbfounded.
Wu Xu next to her couldn't help but blush. Although she was a woman now, she was still different from these sisters. These... some embarrassing private words came out of her mouth.
But just think about their experiences. Although they are both virgins, the experiences are different.
"Hehe, that night, Your Highness, let's discuss martial arts together. Let's see if I am better at swallowing clouds and spitting out mist, or Your Highness, you are better at shooting a spear like a dragon." Liu Qingchan said with a blushing face and a smile.
"Oh, sisters, just let me stay here for a while. I'm still young, and I won't be able to stay like this any longer." Wu Xu was a little dumbfounded, "Do you want to shame me away and then follow me?" Your Highness is dancing wildly."
"Okay, okay, let's discuss martial arts in the evening. How about chatting now? Are you busy this year?" Li Ke smiled and stretched out his hand to touch Wu Xu's head and said.
Regardless of her future identity, she is just a little girl now, but Li Ke knows that she once had a possible identity, but it is absolutely impossible in this world, so it actually doesn't matter.
After all, in history, she was already over 60 years old when she became emperor, so he would not imagine what a woman in her 60s would do.
Now she is Wu Xu and has nothing to do with Wu Zhao. There is no such person as Wu Zhao in this world.
"I'm fine. The overall order of the Tang Dynasty's Evernight City was established by Your Highness. I'm actually responsible for business operations, mainly keeping a close eye on taxation." Wu Xu said immediately.
"Well, that's right. There may not be anyone evading taxes in the first two years, but there will be some in the future. After all, the tax rates in some hugely profitable industries are very high." Li Ke nodded.
"Well, don't worry, Your Highness, but when will the imperial court set up a special taxation department in this regard? We are responsible for the taxation ourselves now. It's okay now. But in the future, it will be possible for us to be self-involved."
"After all, these officials now come from various aristocratic families, and the shops in the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty are also related to these aristocratic families. It will not be very easy to evade tax on your own things." Wu Xu felt helpless. He spoke.
"Haha, don't worry about this. Even if the tax department is established, aren't the relevant people in charge still these people? So sometimes we just need to use the right method." Li Ke smiled slightly.
He was already preparing for the establishment of the tax department. More than a thousand years later, he would say: Learn from the foreigners and develop skills to control the foreigners.
If you want to know the tax situation of each family, you have to let the people of these families collect their own taxes, and who should be sent there.
Li Ke looked strange. These are not the gang of second sons in Kyoto University. The concubines and side branches are useful. They will collect taxes from their own family. As for what problems will arise between them then, Li Ke will be in this situation. Ke really wants to see what kind of thoughts they have after studying for a year or two?
"Let's not talk about this for now, how much tax will be paid by Datang Evernight City this year?" Li Ke looked at Wu Xu and asked.
"It's about close to 8 million yuan. It mainly comes from high-tax shops such as brothels and Goulan. In addition, some luxury stores are also the main tax income groups. This year, many more people come to Datang Everlasting City to spend money." Wu Xu He spoke immediately.
Eight million strings, one city is almost equivalent to one treasury in the past.
It makes sense to think about it. In this era, there is never a shortage of people who are willing to consume. What is lacking is the channels for them to consume. In the past, all the consumption channels were in their own hands, but now this is different.
It’s time to make money, it’s time to spend money, isn’t the saddest thing is that people are gone and money is not spent?
"Well, it is estimated that this number will not grow for a long time, and may even fluctuate. However, Datang Evernight City can maintain its current scale. The main thing is to explore a reasonable tax collection method." Li Ke nodded. .
"I understand. Don't worry, Your Highness. However, many theater halls in the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty have recently released some tracks. One of them is an adaptation of the previous court dispute between Your Highness and the Zheng family in Xingyang. Your Highness, please see how to handle it. "Wuxu said helplessly.
Li Ke was a little helpless: "Is it much?"
"More, most of the audience are used to watching this and like to listen to this, and there are many storytellers who have also adapted legendary stories related to Your Highness. The people like to hear it." Wu Xu said, she knew what Li Ke was thinking, so She couldn't control this situation.
Li Ke: "..."
No, how did this situation become like this? Did something go wrong somewhere?
