Chapter 370: Crackdown?

Seeing him suspicious, Yinzhen also noticed that his tone was wrong, smiled slightly, and said indifferently: "I'm bored, just ask, my uncle's restaurant seems to be very dissatisfied with it."

"Of course the big restaurant is not satisfied." Tan Caijun continued: "The taxes of big restaurants are higher than before. Our small restaurants are cheaper, and the tax is 30% lower." [The latest updates are all in search.]

"Oh, why are you so much less?" Yinzhen asked curiously.

Since it was said that it was opened, Tan Caijun no longer had any concerns about this matter. He then continued: "Our store has a name called "a must-have category for life. Our industry has not reduced the most, and the grain, oil and rice shops are the most, which has been reduced by 50%. The restaurants are not the highest increase. The brothels in the Eight Great Hutongs are so high, and they have doubled. The value of the Yaojie also rose twice. If you want to say that the court is still good..."

Speaking of this, he sighed lightly, but stopped in time. Seeing his expression of wanting to speak but stopping, Yinzhen couldn't help but chuckled, "But there are other miscellaneous taxes in addition to miscellaneous taxes?"

"Who said no?" Tan Caijun smiled bitterly before saying, "The emperor's feet, the imperial city, and the yamen are as numerous as cows. Any one who comes out of the yamen is all masters. All of us have to rush to flatter us."

Speaking of this, he felt a little distorted and hurriedly stopped, renovated the tea in Yinzhen's cup, and then said with a smile: "I drank two more cups today. I made Young Master Long laugh."

"What's the matter?" Yinzhen smiled and said, "My uncle's restaurant is almost the same. Nowadays, business is difficult to do."

This immediately resonated with Tan Caijun. He continued: "Our 'Tan Ji Mud Furnace' is a century-old shop, and it is passed down by several generations. If you want to talk about the court, it is really impossible to say. The tax is also low. The officials of each yamen have a clear idea, and they pay attention to a long flow of water. But this market is a bottomless pit, and the harassment every now and then is very annoying."

Collecting protection fees? Yinzhen reacted immediately and couldn't help but tentatively said: "These people are really lawless, so no one can control them?"

"Who dares to care? There are all princes with yellow and red straps behind them." Tan Caijun curled his lips.

The world is as black as crows, and it has been the same throughout the dynasties. Yinzhen thought to himself, why don’t he encourage Kangxi to come and crack down on it? The majesty of killing these yellow belts, otherwise these innovations will be a waste of time.

Yinzhen and the two craftsmen explained carefully for a while before leaving the store. Tan Caijun wondered, why didn't a single customer come to the door? He looked at the door and saw a few fierce guards huddled Yinzhen away. He couldn't help but feel that the disaster came from the mouth. Some of them caused great disaster today, right? Master Long seemed to be quite good.

It snowed heavily yesterday, but the snow on the street was shoveled clean early in the morning. The street was covered with bluestone slabs of uniform specifications. As the end of the year approached, many families have begun to prepare New Year's goods. The streets are bustling and very lively.

Yinzhen was in Nanyang for half a year and had not felt the hustle and bustle of this bustle and noisy smell for a long time. Once he returned home, he had to meet people endlessly. Thinking that there was no urgent matter, he walked all the way as a car, and followed the crowds of people leisurely on the street, crossed Xiaoshi Street and entered Sanlihe Street. There were fewer talents on the street, and Yinzhen felt even more comfortable. Dachun and other guards also breathed a sigh of relief.

After walking to Chongwenmen Street, it was already noon. Dachun followed him and asked for instructions: "Master has been gone for a long time. Have you taken a sedan chair?"

Yinzhen was still not satisfied, so he looked around and said, "I'm not tired. You said that you are a little hungry. I'm looking for a teahouse or restaurant nearby to sit there."

Dachun has been running around with Yinzhen in recent years and is not very familiar with the capital. Hearing this, he waved to the two guards who had been staying in the capital and asked, "Is there a good teahouse nearby?"

"About half a mile from the front, there is a restaurant called "Tianshan Snow". The chef and dancer are from Tianshan. The store is large and very distinctive." A guard said without hesitation.

"Success, go there." Yinzhen nodded and smiled.

When the group approached the gate of "Tianshan Snow", they saw a large group of people waiting at the door. The most attractive thing to Yinzhen were several tall and fair-skinned women. Yinzhen felt something was wrong at the first time. Why did he look like he was from Russia?

After taking a few steps, Yinzhen was about to take a closer look, but saw the group of people approaching him. He couldn't help but look sideways and saw Longkodo bend out of the sedan chair in casual clothes. He couldn't help laughing secretly. This guy lives a comfortable life. Thinking about it, Longkodo is the admiral of the Nine Gate, and even if these big restaurants have backgrounds, they still have to be very flattering to him.

Thinking of the expedition to America, when he was about to explore Longkodo's voice, Yinzhen moved slightly and stopped again. Longkodo walked with a high spirit under the hush of people. When he passed by Yinzhen, he stopped hesitantly, took a closer look, and confirmed that it was Yinzhen. He immediately turned around and took two steps, and rushed down on the spot, saying, "Slave Longkodo pays homage to the Fourteenth Master."

Standing up, Longkodo smiled with a shy face, "I am confused, and the other side doesn't recognize the Fourteenth Master." As he said that, he said to the crowd, "This is the current 14th Prince. Why don't you pay a visit to the Fourteenth Master?"

The shopkeeper of the 'Tianshan Snow' and the servants immediately knelt on the ground, "Caomin is waiting to see the Fourteenth Master."

"Flat." Yinzhen said with a smile, and then said to Longkodo: "Lead ahead, otherwise you can't even have a peaceful meal." As he said that, he turned around and went first.

Longkodo was puzzled, why did Yinzhen appear here alone? He followed along the way: "The Fourteenth Master returned to Beijing yesterday, so why did he have the time to come here alone today? Why didn't you let me notify me, and I thought you were in the palace."

"Go to the front to do something, and I've been spread all the way. I heard that the newly opened restaurant has a good taste." Yinzhen said as he walked.

When he entered the backyard, Yinzhen slowed down. Longkodo familiarized himself and led him into a hall. Yinzhen looked at it. The hall was very large, with felt blankets on the ground, but only a large table was set up. He smiled and sat down and said, "Today, I am so arrogant, let's sit down."

Longkodo sat with the lower head and said with a smile: "The Fourteenth Master said this, but he killed his slave." Seeing the servants following in, he stopped talking and ordered: "He will serve the lord, and I will reward you very much."

Longkodo was quick-minded. Since Yinzhen was waiting for him at the door, there must be something to say, otherwise he would not have seen him under such circumstances. So after giving the order, he turned around and asked for instructions: "Fourth Master, should you start the meal first or...?"

"It's not an urgent matter to start the meal first." Yinzhen raised his hand slightly, and he really felt a little hungry.
