In Liaozhou now, there is an army of Xianbei soldiers. With Liu Yu's support and the training of Yu Wenxun Ni Yan and others, it is already very effective.
Going north to deal with the Ding Ling people, there should be a great chance to seize the territory of the Daxianbei Mountains.
Once the Daxianbei Mountains are obtained, it will be very convenient for Liu Yu to invade the Mobei area in the future.
After giving Yu Wenxun Niyan a batch of military supplies, Liu Yu completely let go and waited for news in Luoyang.
After a period of harvest, this year the military and civilians in the Central Plains have completed a bumper harvest of grain.
Especially outside Luoyang City, Liu Yu ordered preparations for a harvest ceremony.
Let the Han people throughout Luochuan see what a good harvest it is to cultivate new crops.
"Your Majesty, the harvest ceremony has been prepared. Will this year's autumn taxes also begin to be collected?" Hua Xiu asked.
As his chief logistics officer, Hua Xiu's suggestions are always timely.
However, Liu Yu shook his head at this proposal.
"No, this year's autumn tax will not be levied for now. I want to grant amnesty to the Central Plains area and let the people have a good winter!"
Hua Xiu was shocked when he heard Liu Yu's words.
This year, the Fujun people in Luoyang finally made use of the new crops and had a bumper harvest. If they make good use of this year's autumn tax, they can have a good harvest.
If the autumn taxes of the northern states and counties were exempted, then the treasury would not only be in debt this year, but would be in deep debt.
The two pioneer armies of the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions and Dongyi Continent consumed a lot of money and food.
"Your Majesty, you love the people as your own son, and I really admire you. But if you don't collect the autumn taxes this year, I'm afraid you won't be able to support next year's expenses." Hua Xiu said.
Liu Yu shook his head and insisted on his decision with great certainty, "We finally managed to survive the natural disaster this year. The people of the Han Dynasty are really suffering. If we don't have to do it, I really can't bear to plunder their people's wealth from them."
The 'Bi Sheng' restaurant now opened by Liu Yu has become a cash cow that makes money every day.
Because there were so many customers, Liu Yu ordered the establishment of several Pizza Hut branches.
Just the must-win restaurants in Luoyang City, the profits earned from the wealthy businessmen and powerful guests are already worth less than half of Luoyang County's tax revenue.
And once the Liaozhou market opens, it will be able to create more than ten times the profit.
With so much money coming in, it would be a bit shameless to plunder the fruits of people's hard work.
"I have decided that from now on, I only need to collect the tax once. As for whether it is a summer tax or an autumn tax, we will wait until next year to decide. I have no plans to do anything this year." Liu Yu said.
"What about the taxes in Yizhou, Xichuan?" Hua Xiu asked immediately.
Nowadays, the Xichuan area can be regarded as a mature and populous area.
The business tax in the prosperous Chengdu area is also sufficient to set the autumn tax for the first half of the year.
"Chengdu will continue to collect the autumn tax for the time being." Liu thought about it and said.
This is not because he deliberately targets the people of Yizhou, Xichuan. It is because he does not have enough new crop seeds on hand to provide them to the Chengdu area of Xichuan for the time being.
To maintain daily expenses, the army and officials there must collect taxes.
After arranging the matter, Gongsun Sheng came in from the door.
"Your Majesty, I have already made arrangements for the trading company!"
Gongsun Sheng said as soon as he came in.
"It's so fast, it's really good enough." Liu Yu praised.
Ever since Bisheng Cuisine became popular, Liu Yu has seen the unlimited potential of Dahan's business.
In addition, the mutual trading of several major border states is about to begin, and just collecting taxes from those powerful people is far from satisfying Liu Yu's plan.
Therefore, he ordered Gongsun Sheng to prepare a trading company and prepare to arrange specialized personnel to do business in person.
However, the background of the trading company was deliberately hidden, trying not to expose Liu Yu's own influence.
"Your Majesty, these are all the duties of lower officials!" Gongsun Sheng said modestly.
"Have all the personnel of the trading company been assessed? I require everyone to have a clean family background." Liu Yu asked.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, all of your subordinates are personally selected. They are all young men from the subordinate military and civilian villages. They all have families and families, and they will not have random thoughts." Gongsun Sheng said.
Liu Yu nodded, very satisfied with the result.
After absorbing a large number of refugees to work in the fields, it has become very easy to get some manpower.
Liu Yu does not need strong business talent or experience for the members of this new trading company. He only needs people who are honest and reliable and can fulfill his orders in a down-to-earth manner, and then profits can be basically guaranteed.
After all, the business Liu Yu plans to do is the only monopoly business in the world. As long as he does not guard himself and steals, he will definitely make a lot of money.
"Your Majesty, what do you plan to name this trading company?" Gongsun Sheng asked.
Liu thought about it and said, "I think the name Bafang Trading Company is suitable."
"Bafang Trading Company?" Gongsun Sheng pondered.
"Yes, it is the Bafang Trading Company. I have already planned to make this trading company the number one business in the Han Dynasty. In the future, the business will be done all over the world, not only in the Central Plains of Han Dynasty, but also in all the countries in the Bafang River. So it is Aim in all directions!" Liu Yu said.
"Your Majesty, this name suits you very well!" Gongsun Sheng said seriously.
With this Bafang Trading Company and the Bisheng Restaurant, Liu Yu planned to open these two businesses all over the world.
On the one hand, he can reap countless monetary profits for himself, and on the other hand, he can secretly collect intelligence anytime and anywhere.
"Your Majesty, Bafang Trading Company, what business should we start with?" Gongsun Sheng asked.
Now the manpower has been found and the funds are very sufficient. The only thing missing is not knowing what business to do.
"I'm ready, come with me!" Liu Yu smiled mysteriously.
Surprised, Gongsun Sheng followed Liu Yu along the corridor to a large courtyard next to the side hall.
The guards in this courtyard are heavily guarded, and every room is airtight.
Gongsun Sheng felt a sense of solemnity when he saw it.
There must be so many rooms filled with all kinds of goods.
What he thought was not bad at all.
Liu Yu used the money he got from personal tribute, coupled with the huge profits, to pile it all in these rooms.
Liu Yu led Gongsun Sheng to a large house with five consecutive buildings in the front yard.
Pushing open the thick door, the room was filled with black oilcloth bags. The three walls were piled up until they almost reached the roof beams.
