Chapter 76 The Magical Effect of the Imperial Decree

Chen Yi wandered back to his residence.

General Zhang naturally knew what Chen Yi was doing when he went out.

But seeing him come back with a leisurely posture just like yesterday, there was no anxiety on his body at all.

General Zhang couldn't sit still any longer, so he directly dragged Chen Yi into the room.

"Zi Shang, I know that you have a lot in your heart, but we've been here for two days! When will we leave? I'm worried that I've been here for a long time, and it's hard to explain to Your Majesty."

Chen Yi smiled: "Don't worry, the matter has been settled, and we can leave in two days."

After hearing what Chen Yi said, General Zhang froze, thinking he was hallucinating.

What did Chen Yi say just now?already solved?
General Zhang asked with the excitement suppressed in his heart, "If you don't know how to wander around for a while, you will find a cheap shop and come back after spending all your money."

Chen Yi sighed helplessly, why didn't he believe in himself?
"Don't worry, there is enough food and grass, it's not what you think, but I have other things to do these two days, no matter what you hear, just support me."

General Zhang carefully observed the expression on Chen Yi's face. It didn't look like he was lying, and he didn't feel guilty at all, so he reconfirmed in disbelief.

"Are you serious or not? It's really solved. Tell me what's going on. Don't be a fool. It's really unreliable for you to make me feel nervous."

Chen Yi looked at General Zhang scratching his ears and cheeks impatiently.

Just tell me what I discussed with Chen Wenjie after going out today.

"The plaque of the Emperor's Merchant? It's also tax-free. This is indeed a big deal. I guess it's you. Most people really can't figure it out. His Majesty really gave you an imperial edict?"

Chen Yi directly took out the imperial decree and handed it to General Zhang.

"Is this still fake? Look for yourself, it's just a good reputation, which may not be of much use to us, but to these businessmen, it is equivalent to overwhelming wealth."

When Chen Yi said this, he picked up the teacup and took a sip to moisten his throat.

"In addition, it saved him a year's tax. Although this is a temporary solution, not the root cause, but the wool came from the sheep. Now our treasury has no money, but the tax is paid, and it also goes into the treasury. We just But it was taken out in advance.”

After General Zhang finished posting, he nodded again and again.

Chen Yi further explained: "Besides, when the tax money turned over to the national treasury actually reaches the national treasury, we don't know how much is left, but now we accept it directly, which saves the middle link. It is conceivable that the food and grass will naturally There it is."

General Zhang nodded repeatedly.

"However, the imperial merchant is just a false name. What do these merchants want this false name for? The food is real, so you just gave it to us?"

Chen Yi shook his head and smiled.

"It's naturally beneficial. If you are a commoner, if you see such a merchant, at the same price, would you go to buy food from other merchants? Naturally, you will buy this one, because His Majesty thinks it is a good one. merchants."

General Zhang suddenly realized that there is still such a relationship.

Chen Yi continued.

"This benefit is more than just a little bit. You must know that this is a gold-lettered signboard. In the future, whenever you want to conduct business with other businessmen, you will look at this reputation and this credit. Once this thing is taken out, who dare not be tempted? "

"Other families, seeing that they earn so much, do you think other people will be jealous? So what will happen next time we need food and grass?"

This is now the most common commercial hype.

This is now the best method and means for a company to turn around, try it out.

Especially when such a country needs money.

Don't look at the fact that it seems to be provided by the merchant for free on the surface, and it has suffered a lot.

But sometimes, this benefit is not just a little bit, and it will also focus on receiving the country's attention and support. Even if this thing is rich, it can't buy this kind of relationship.

In addition, it can also be used as a free advertisement, not for nothing.

Of course in this day and age we don't see this type of marketing, so it doesn't seem like anyone is doing it.

But now that Chen Yi is here, naturally there will be such a thing.

This can be regarded as a win-win situation. Merchants regain their reputation and improve their reputation. Naturally, the money in their hands is willingly turned over to the national treasury, which can be regarded as making up for the emptiness of the national treasury.

After thinking about the cause and effect, General Zhang praised: "Wonderful, this trick is really good, neither side has any losses, it's like a white wolf with empty hands! Then the money left before is just saved." come down?"

Chen Yi nodded with a smile, but did not deny it.

"The money is naturally saved. However, the money can't be used indiscriminately. The money is saved by me. I plan to use the money to reclaim the west and improve the living standards of the people. It will be of great use."

General Zhang didn't care about this.

To be honest, there were so many people who benefited from this army before, and General Zhang actually had a rough idea of ​​how much money was left in Chen Yi's hands.

All the money was paid out, and it wouldn't buy much food, but now Chen Yi must have solved the food, grass, and military needs, even if Chen Yi corrupted all the money.

General Zhang was also speechless.

What's more, listening to what Chen Yi meant, it seemed that he wanted to use the money to improve the status quo of the people in the west, and that would be a good thing for the people. How could General Zhang have voices of doubt, and it was too late to support him.

And things are also developing in a direction that they didn't expect under the surprised eyes of others.

Zhang's family was originally backed by a concubine, so they didn't care about the little money in Chen Yi's hands at all, and didn't plan to participate in anything, so they just treated it as nothing.

Chen Yi was very grateful for this, at least it didn't hold him back.

But when Xu Wenjie's massive food donation event took place, the Zhang family couldn't sit still.

So the Zhang family sat together to discuss and discuss. Unfortunately, they didn't have any other inside information. They only knew that the Xu family was making incremental free donations to major commercial firms during this period.

This matter caused a great stir, and the whole Daoxiang City knew about it.

And everyone laughed at the Xu family, probably because their head was kicked by a donkey, and they wanted to donate good food for free.

But the Zhang family is not stupid. They know that if there is no benefit, the Xu family will not be like this. It is a pity that although they borrow the concubine as their backing, they are only borrowing her reputation.

Yun and the concubine are not very familiar with each other, so they don't know some news.

We can only send people to closely observe the news of the Xu family.

Of course, during this period, they also visited General Zhang and Chen Yi.
