Merchants naturally seek profit, which is a natural law and a law of economic development. Without violating the law and basic morality, merchants in the Song Dynasty will naturally perform their duties, not to mention the tax exemption from the three departments?

The commercial tax in the Song Dynasty has always been very high. Everyone knows that the commercial tax in the Song Dynasty has borne most of the agricultural tax to achieve stability in the people today. The Song people themselves have already understood this.

This is not the first time the court has released the opportunity to reduce taxes. Before, when fighting against foreign countries, commercial taxes in certain specific prefectures or regions could be reduced.

Even so, it was a considerable expense, which allowed local merchants to make a lot of money.

Now that such an opportunity appears again, how can merchants not flock to it? But the corresponding tax reduction and exemption are also subject to conditions. These businesses must have Khitans to reduce and exemption.

Whether it is Shendu City, the entire Peiping Prefecture, or other prefectures in the Song Dynasty, almost all the businesses have never hired Khitans, so it is naturally a kind of repulsive mentality.

Now that the official's decree has been issued, the official documents of the three departments have been issued, some businesses plan to try it out, hoping that they can really get the commercial tax reduction to get more profits.

But I am afraid of conflicts. After all, there are certain risks in recruiting Khitans. What if the Khitans fight with the Han people?

There is another thing that they are even more worried. If the court changes its orders every day, how should these people be dispersed? It is easy to ask God to send God to God!

If a business recruits Khitans, it means that Khitans will appear in factories and Khitans will also appear in restaurants and teahouses. In this way, will the people of the Song Dynasty not buy their things?

The shrewd merchants have already taken the risk of hiring Khitan for a long time. No one wants to regret it if something happens, right?

But in the end, someone recruited Khitans to work with the mentality of trying it out. Cai Ji was the first to recruit Khitan Rao. Everyone knew that Cai Ji was behind the official family, and recruiting Khitan was unexpected.

Next is Biyaxuan, an industry that belongs to the empress and the concubines in the harem. This is also expected by most people. They are all husband and wife, and Cai Ji, the official family, recruits Khitans to work. How could Biyaxuan, the empress and a group of concubines, be exceptions?

Many people are looking at the development of things with a wait-and-see attitude. The industries involved in Cai Ji are very comprehensive, and there are many ordinary merchants who cannot reach them. Therefore, Cai Ji is the weather vane for all businesses in terms of implementing the official's will.

Cai Boyi rarely comes to Cai Ji's general account in Shendu City. Many old people in Cai Ji have become accustomed to calling him the shopkeeper, so when Cai Boyi appears at Cai Ji's general account on Nanmen Street, he hears the singing of promises one after another.

"The shopkeeper is here? Today is a good day for me, Lao Hu!"

"Big shopkeeper!"

"The big shopkeeper Huaquelou has served new dishes and bitter drinks. Have you tasted them?!"

Cai Boqian bowed and said, "Everyone, I, Cai Boqian, is no longer the shopkeeper of Cai Ji. You are all the old people of Cai Ji, don't break me! Today, Cai came back and heard that the official asked the business to recruit Khitans, so I came to take a look."

Cai Boqi's words immediately aroused the response of the crowd. Wang Shun, the current manager of Cai Ji's business, immediately stepped forward and said, "Big... Prince Concubine, you don't know that recruiting Khitans is an order issued by the official. The official is my Cai Ji's boss. The boss has spoken. How dare we criticize me? But I haven't recruited too much for the time being, I'm worried..."

"Worry?!"

Cai Boqi shouted strangely: "You're worried! Have you been stupid in Shendu City in the past two years? The official's orders issued by the government can exempt one cent from the restaurant by recruiting ten Khitans, five cents from fifty ones, and one hundred cents from the tax! Do you know how much is the 10% tax in our Cai Ji a year?!"

Wang Shun rubbed his hands and said, "I understand what the prince-consin means. So Cai Ji should recruit a large number of Khitans?"

Cai Boqi rolled his eyes and said, "I will teach you this matter? No matter whether it is beneficial to me, Cai Ji, we must obey it as long as the official's order is reached. Cai Ji is always Cai Ji of the official! If you can't understand this, then get out early, so as not to make a big mistake in the future and implicate the entire Cai Ji!!"

Wang Shun nodded and left immediately. He knew that in Cai Boyi's eyes, Cai Ji was more important than anything else. When he left Cai Ji and handed everything to himself, the advice and threats were vivid in his mind.

Wang Shun himself knew what to do, so the emperor's will should naturally be followed, let alone Cai Ji or the imperial merchant... In fact, Wang Shun had already started recruiting Khitans before, so he was not stupid, but he just asked for a little bit of a word after seeing Cai Boqi coming. In this way, he was recruiting Khitans anyway, and it was not easy for the government to blame him.

Now with Cai Boqi's "peace of mind", Cai Ji began to recruit Khitans in Shendu City with great fanfare. The huge red trump card was written very clearly, and only Khitans were recruited!

With Cai Ji's movements, the same is true for Biyaxuan not far away. However, Biyaxuan recruits Khitan women. Khitan women are different from the Song Dynasty women. They ride horses all year round and have a very good body proportion. Some clothes are more charming when worn on them.

Any nation has its own advantages, which is a gift from the top. The Han people are more stable, simple in doing things, and even a little persistent, and the power to unite is extremely powerful. Perhaps they are not the smartest, but they work hard enough!

The Khitans belong to the northern race. They have stronger bodies, stronger, firm will, generous temperament, and strong self-esteem, but they lack a little patience, but this is not a problem.

After a good training, they are fully qualified for the work of various businesses, whether it is a restaurant or a factory workshop. The main reason is that after arriving at the tomb shop, they can not only get wages beyond their imagination every month, but also get some "benefits" given by the shopkeeper.

Everyone has these "benefits" and are generally things that cannot be sold in stores and are not worth much money. However, they are quite good "goods" for the Khitans.

The people of the Song Dynasty had long been used to it, but they were quite satisfied with the surprised look of the Khitans. Many Han people gradually discovered that the Khitans were not so hateful, and they were even willing to invite people to drink when they were generous.

If you want to assimilate the Khitans and integrate them into the society of the Song Dynasty, the best way is to let them participate in the production and life of the Song Dynasty.
