Chapter 62:
Town center.
From time to time, bursts of laughter spread out.
The people talking inside seemed very happy?
"Hahaha, good, good, Chief Chen is really a man of great love, I admire him! I admire him!"
"That's right, sacrificing a small profit to benefit everyone, it's really the style of a benevolent person..."
"..."
Hu Tianhaidi flattered.
Chen Nuoyan smiled.
There was no trace of the previous unhappiness in the whole banquet.
Why?
The grain tax was agreed upon.
The grain tax shared by the big households was only increased by 10%, and there was no intention to over-exploit them.
And Chen Nuo had already promised to do business with everyone, and he would take out half of the black gold paste business share for everyone to share.
Of course, because the black gold paste had been sold to the wealthy businessman surnamed Xu, they could no longer touch the black gold paste business in the county.
But even so.
In the vast rural areas, this business is not bad.
In addition to Qinghe Town, there are three other towns around An County.
Moreover, Chen Nuo seemed willing to abide by the rules of the game and promised not to break the game violently so suddenly.
This is what makes everyone happy.
This is right, otherwise, I would be really scared.
Now it's good, we can make money together, and we are safe again, everyone is fine.
Of course.
Chen Nuo is not here to be a sucker.
While doing this, there is also an exchange of interests. It can even be said that Chen Nuo has a big advantage.
First of all.
The entire Qinghe Town's medicinal materials business must be done by his Chen family, and no one else can do this business!
Their supply channels must also be given to Chen.
There are also several core industries of each of them, such as casinos, brothels, inns, grain shops, ready-made clothing stores...
These must open up some markets to Chen's family to help Chen's family gain a foothold in Qinghe Town. Of course, they only occupy a certain share and do not seize their family's position.
It is equivalent to letting these big households make concessions.
In addition, these big households must also pay a certain amount of money and grain to the grain tax team every quarter for training.
It can be said that Chen Nuo pays less and gets more.
But the big families didn't think so.
Chen Nuo became one of them, which not only made everyone feel at ease, but also brought wealth, and only paid 10% more grain tax. As for the cost?
In comparison, it was just a little painful.
And what about Chen Nuo?
He gained the most.
As for the promises to them...
Hehe.
Chen Nuo's goal has never been just the tribes in the towns. The next step is the county town!
By then, they will cry and beg for blood to hug the thighs.
At this moment.
Both sides are happy!
...
The discussion is over.
It's time to share the food.
On a large round table.
Chen Nuo took the lead in putting a chicken leg and a chicken wing into the bowl.
No one spoke.
No one looked at Chen Nuo.
It seemed that Chen Nuo could eat so much.
As for the rest, the seven big families quickly grabbed the chopsticks, still talking about something.
"One percent..."
"No, this black business..."
"These chicken wings belong to me."
"Hehe, this chicken breast, no one should compete with me, right?"
Looking at a group of people fighting for it, Chen Nuo smiled faintly.
But he was silent in his heart.
Is this just eating chicken?
No, no, no.
Two big families died, and someone has to take over their industry.
Sometimes.
The struggle between humans and beasts is actually similar.
Not just in terms of force.
In business...politics...military...
It's the same.
Someone fell.
The beasts will not have the slightest mercy, nor will they show mercy to you just because you were a companion a second ago.
They will only eat you faster.
Just like wild beasts in nature.
However, they not only eat wild beasts, but also people...
Chen Nuo suddenly remembered the Shan family that he destroyed today.
If he didn't kill them all.
These people might help him solve it, of course, then the pot might be put on his head.
Thinking of this not-so-nice thing for a moment, Chen Nuo was in a low mood.
Ordering the extermination of the whole family...
Time passed quickly.
The chickens were divided.
Some people had chicken legs.
Some people had chicken wings.
Some people had chicken breasts.
Some people only had chicken butts...
But everyone got something and everyone was very happy.
Chen Nuo did not eat the chicken legs, but looked at the braised lion heads in the center.
He picked up all four lion heads and ate them clean.
The chicken legs and wings were not touched again.
The heads of the seven big families seemed to have seen nothing, just eating silently.
Soon.
The banquet was over.
Everyone ate very well.
The big families said goodbye to Chen Nuo with a smile, and watching them go away, Chen Nuo's smile remained unchanged.
He looked at Li Meng next to him.
"Town mayor?"
"Ah, I'm not worthy of that. Just call me village chief."
Li Meng waved his hand.
"In the future, if you need anything, just come here. I think Patriarch Chen is very pleasing to the eye."
He said so.
Chen Nuo would naturally not give him face.
The village chief took the initiative to get closer. This is a good thing. Why not accept it?
…
At this moment.
Chen's shop in Qinghe Town opened again without knowing it.
The green-skinned hooligans under the Gao family also encountered vicious spear attacks from the grain tax team members.
soon.
The entire underworld forces left behind by the Gao family were wiped out by the people arranged by Chen Nuo.
Moreover, the Gao family and the Shan family were also searched thoroughly.
"The patriarch said that after cleaning up, these darkness will breed again."
"Let us take care of it first to prevent any trouble. He will deal with it next."
"Oh, okay, is there anywhere else to kill?"
Chen Yong asked, holding the hammer on his head.
Chen Xiang said coldly: "No more, I'll leave you on standby."
"Fine."
At this moment.
Chen Nuo walked back from the town center.
"How's it going with the Gao family?"
Chen Xiang understood what the clan leader was asking and immediately replied, "The Gao family has basically plundered everything, including 1,231 taels of silver, a small farm outside the town, the land deed for 200 acres of middle land, and There are two courtyards, and the deeds of more than a dozen servants..."
"In addition to these, there are also some account books and other shops. The specific money is still being calculated."
"As for the Shan family, a lot of things were found, but not as good as the Gao family, about 80% of the Gao family. In addition, some not-so-good things were also found."
"Both of them have it."
"The Gao family is a loan shark, a human trafficker, and other unspeakable things. The most important thing is that they send ten women to the Xiang Gang in the county every year, as well as part of their funds."
"The Shan family doesn't have the power behind it, but their pharmacy sells fake medicines and passes them off as good ones. Many people have died from them. There is also some evidence of bribery..."
