"…The Senate held a closed-door meeting at the end of February to pass the annual fiscal budget, and decided to issue 2 million yuan of Andong Mansion construction bonds for a period of ten years, with an annual profit of 8 cents, and an interest payment every year, and a capital repayment once due, regardless of compound interest, and the Republican Government provides a full irrevocable guarantee!"

Under the candlelight, Yelu Yanxi read a few words from the Tianjin Times, bounced the thin newspaper with his fingers, shook his head and said, "What is public debt?"

"Public debt means that the Republican government's households borrowed from the people of Youzhou and issued a kind of debt invoice called construction of public debts." Yelu Yan, the Privy Councilor of the Southern Court, explained.

"Didn't Wu Haogu claim to be richest in the world? Why do you still have to borrow money from the people?"

"Wu Haogu's money is from Wu Haogu, and the money from the Republic of China is from the Republic of China. Youzhou pays attention to the public. Youzhou Republic's government belongs to more than 80,000 Youzhou citizens, not from the Wu Haogu family. Therefore, Wu Haogu's money and the money from the Republic of China are separated."

Yelu Yanxi snorted: "What is the name of the world for public? Isn't the money of the Republic of China still allowed Wu Haogu to use it? He didn't take out his own money... He has no intention of serving the country and public? I don't usually say that the world is for public, but do I have a penny of private property? Everything about me belongs to the country, and I have no selfish intentions. This Wu Haogu's world for public is simply a trick to deceive people!"

"Your Majesty's wise!"

Yelu Yan quickly praised him. He laughed in his heart. Not to mention whether Wu Haogu's world is true or false, but the public and private sectors are at least clear, and it is certain that the private houses are not accessible to the public treasury. The budget of the Republic's government must be reviewed by the Senate. Wu Haogu's annual salary, including the minister's money, is 12,000 yuan, and 1,000 yuan a month. Whether his family can spend enough money or not has nothing to do with the Republic's government. But how much money does the Emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty spend in a year? The money given to the temple alone is more than 12,000 yuan, and he also says he has no selfishness...

In addition, the commercial banks and land owned by Wu Haogu are all public! The taxes and profits and losses are all reported and handed over to the Senate and the relevant local councils and governments, and they are also announced. Of course, the public disclosure of this property is not for anti-corruption, but for the distribution of quotas for the veterans and the city council. What needs to be announced is not the property of the officials, but the property and tax payment status of the veterans and members.

The republic created by Wu Haogu is a republic of capitalists and feudal lords. Among them, the veterans (members) representing the capitalists are determined by the tax amount. The veterans (members) representing the feudal lords are determined by the number of knight households supported.

Therefore, the tax disclosure system for the property of veterans (MPs) is necessary. How to rank them without disclosure? How to determine the candidates for some veterans and members of the next term?

In other words, Wu Haogu, the Republican government, which is "the world is for the public", has no tax exemption privilege in Youzhou. The tax he pays every year is much more than the salary he receives from the Republican government. He is the number one taxpayer in Youzhou!

Isn’t it clear who is for the public and who is for the private sector?

Yelu Yanxi couldn't tell the difference between "public", "selflessness" and "public and private". However, he didn't believe that the 2 million yuan of public debt would really be used to build the Laushizi Anton Mansion.

With a bang, Yelu Yanxi threw the newspaper sent by Yelu Yan (Yelu Yan is the Privy Council of the Southern Court, and is naturally responsible for the intelligence work in Youzhou. Reading newspapers is his main way to collect information in Youzhou. For this reason, he spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy newspapers every month) on the table and shook his head and said, "The money has come to Wu Haogu's hands. It's not his final decision? The genius believes that he will take the money to Andong Mansion. It must be military expenses! I just don't know where the troops will be used?"

Yelu Yanxi guessed something. Although the 2 million scoops of the government proposed by the Republican government were not directly used for military purposes, the money replaced the 2 million scoops originally used for the development of Andong Prefecture. The 2 million scoops were included in the special budget of the military affairs room, which was used for war.

The reason for this is because of the need for confidentiality. You can’t issue a bond to attack the Liao Kingdom publicly, right? Youzhou and Liao Kingdom are still in a truce!

Moreover, Wu Haogu did not intend to completely destroy the ceasefire... He just wanted to take advantage of the chaos in Liaodong and occupied some territory.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Yelu Yan said another flattery, and then he also guessed Wu Haogu's intention, "Wu Haogu must have wanted to use troops in Liaodong."

"How can I see it?" Yelu Yanxi asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty," said Yelu Yan, "According to investigation, Wu Haogu has recently bought several pieces of land in Kaifeng Prefecture, worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, and is ready to build a three-story building and resell it."

"oh?"

Yelu Yanxi didn't understand what was the relationship between Wu Haogu's investment in real estate in Kaifeng Prefecture and where to use troops?

"Your Majesty," Yelu Yan explained, "If Kaifeng Prefecture is about to suffer a war, who would spend thousands or tens of thousands of dollars to ask Wu Haogu's Wanjiaxing to buy a house? The rich people in Kaifeng Prefecture had no time to escape, so what house would they buy?"

"That's right." Yelu Yanxi nodded slightly.

In fact, what Yelu Yan said is not right. The rich people in Kaifeng Prefecture are not afraid of Wu Haogu... Wu Haogu is also a scattered material from the Kaifeng General Group. They are related to the artists and capitalists in Kaifeng Prefecture, which is somewhat similar to the relationship between Li Yuan and Guanlong Group at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

Even after Wu Haogu's public separatist rule, many Kaifeng generals secretly retained their investment in Tianjin!

If Wu Haogu really commanded his troops to Kaifeng Prefecture, these Kaifeng rich families would be nothing more than a change of masters. Moreover, Wu Haogu's group did not have the position of imperial examination literati and guru, which would be more beneficial than disadvantages for Kaifeng rich families. According to the current rules of the Youzhou Republic, these people have veterans and members of the parliament can do it. Their children can easily enter the Yuntai Academy. A new-style academy like Gezhida Academy is still afraid that there will be no official job in the future?

The only thing that made them unhappy was probably paying taxes. However, in the Song Dynasty, the cost of tax evasion was also very high. All aspects need to be settled, otherwise our ancestors would not be reliable!

So the one who really opposed Wu Haogu was actually a civil servant who came from the imperial examination. The basis of the republic system implemented by Wu Haogu was military service, taxes, and empirical and rational schools. There was no traditional Confucian scholar-official position at all. Even if they had to change to the empirical school, it was difficult for the rational school to study Yuntai Academy. How many students would be recruited in a new-style academy like Gezhida Academy? If you don’t enter such a school, you will not be able to get citizenship rights if you can learn at home. There is no citizenship rights, what future can you have under the republic?

"What about Hedong in the clouds?" Yelu Yanxi asked again.

"No." Yelu Yan shook his head, "If Wu Haogu could take Hedong, Yunzhong, he would have taken action long ago. If he didn't take action, he would definitely not be able to do it for the time being."

"Is it because of Hexi and Zhaoyi towns?"

"Maybe there are also Shaanxi generals." Yelu Yan said, "If the conditions are not agreed, even if Wu Haogu enters Kaifeng Prefecture, the Song Dynasty court will have a place to run away. Wu Haogu enters Kaifeng Prefecture, and he is also a traitor who is the world's riots to fight against."

Yelu Yanxi breathed a sigh and said, "It makes sense! I feel relieved now... Tomorrow, I will go north to Tu'er Mountain and set up a formation on Tu'er Mountain to gather the army. If Xiao Si can take down the press and exit Hushui City, then it will be the next one.

If Xiao Sixian fails to succeed, when the horses are fat in autumn, I will personally lead 100,000 cavalry to flatten out of the tiger water Wanyan tribe!"

It turned out that Yelu Yanxi also made preparations! One was a sneak attack and the other was a dignified battle.

If you have to push over the 100,000 cavalry, are you still afraid of being unable to win?

...

Shangjing Road, Liaoyang Prefecture.

The two brothers Xiao Baoxian and Xiao Sixian were also discussing the plan to raid the Wangcheng of the Tiger Water Wanyan tribe in the inner hall this evening.

"I'm afraid 7500 cavalry is not enough?"

"How come it's not enough? Three against one, are you still afraid of not winning?"

"Of course there is no problem with field battles, but Wanyan's army has a city!"

"City? Wanyan's troops now have cities?"

"Yes! I just heard... What kind of Tianli Academy can help them build it! Although it is a wooden fort, it has all kinds of trenches, arrow towers, tigers, and horse faces. There are bed crossbows and thunder chariots on the city tower. How can your cavalry fight?"

"Is this kind of thing actually happening?"

It was completely beyond Xiao Sixian's expectation that Wanyan's tribe now has a city to rely on. Although it is just a wooden fort, the 7,500 cavalry he brought had no choice but to do with it.

Although he planned to attack a sneak attack, it was impossible to attack a castle. Wanyan's army was not blind and deaf, so how could it be that Xiao Sixian's soldiers sneaked out of the castle?

Xiao Sixian's army was very successful if it could secretly travel dozens of miles to the Wanyan tribe's base.

If the Wanyan tribe has no strong city to rely on, they have to choose between being forced to fight and moving in a hurry. If they want to fight, they will most likely be defeated. If they want to leave, they will be easy to escape, but what should the elderly, weak, women and children of the clan do? They don’t want it? Without them, is the Wanyan tribe still a tribe?

But now they have a castle! Then they shrink into the castle and defend the city! What should Xiao Sixian do?

"What should I do?" Xiao Sixian was stunned, "The cavalry can't attack the city!"

Xiao Bao first thought about it, "There are 3,000 elite soldiers of the Bohai tribe on Tokyo Road, and they have captured the infantrymen from Chenzhou Jiancheng. Taking them with them is no problem!"

"Can they be reliable?" Xiao Sixian also knew that the relationship between the Bohai women and Naoto was very close.

Xiao Baoxian smiled and said, "How could it be unreliable? These Bohai people are all children of the Right surname, and their families are all on the edge of the Liaohe River. If they dare to rebel, we will slaughter their family!"
