Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl

Wang Shiyu calculated the taxes they paid a few days ago, and it turned out to be one-tenth of the national treasury. They did make a lot of money during this period, almost hundreds of millions of silver taels, but the taxes they paid were probably around 20 million taels of silver. This is possible because Zhou Qingyun has an army of 500,000, and they are even supported by others. You know, before Yu Xiuming made so much money, he felt distressed when he paid the money.

So Wang Shiyu didn't feel guilty at all. After all, they paid so much taxes, so shouldn't it be normal for the emperor to give them protection?

Without them, the tax silver would not have been handed over to the imperial treasury, if Yu Xiuming had not taken the initiative to hand over the silver. (In order to save some trouble, the royal family would not dare to directly attack the Yu family. After all, if you make a lot of money, some people will be jealous. With the support of the emperor, many things can be convenient.)

Then Zhou Qingyun still needed to find ways to fight for the salaries and food for these troops, but with Yu Xiuming and Wang Shiyu around, Zhou Qingyun saved a lot of trouble, so Zhou Qingyun should give them protection. Even when Wang Shiyu didn't know, Zhou Qingyun had already broken the claws of many people who wanted to interfere in their business.

After all, the ability of a king, even if Wang Shiyu dislikes this person, still believes in his ability. In fact, for people like them, they have their own connections in various places in the Zhou Dynasty. If someone really wants to use their trademarks and brands to run a small workshop, then they can directly find the local tyrants and crush all these people to death. Even killing people is just a matter of a word. After all, this is not a legal society, but a tragic feudal society.

Don't underestimate the connections that a person from a noble family has. If they really want to, it's too easy for them to crush a person with a little money. Don't think that things are so terrible and that they will only fight endlessly. They fight endlessly, but only within the family. If someone infringes on their interests, you will see that they are united.

So even if you want to take advantage directly, it is not so easy. It is not so easy to take advantage of the family. Just like although Yu Xiuming gives most of his money to his wife now, he actually has to give some things to the family. Yu Xiuming is no different from an employee now, except that most of his money is given to his wife, which can be regarded as entering his own small family.

Even some of his shortcomings could be questioned by some elders in the family, and sometimes they could directly investigate his business matters.

If he hadn't taken out all the things himself, these people would probably have wanted to keep them all for themselves, or even wanted him to hand over most of his income directly to the family. After all, once the money arrived at the family, it would be directly distributed to the elders.

The last time, he got angry with the elders in the family and asked them to stop. This stopped them from taking the idea of ​​directly encroaching on his wife's dowry. In order to punish these people, he directly cut off their supply for two years. Since they were not obedient, he would not use the power of the family anymore.

It's better for him to be a rich and idle person honestly, otherwise he will have nothing to do after eating all day and will always be looking for trouble. He may even think that he is very powerful and want to compete with him for power, which is really too much for them.
