"If you were to become the lord of a territory, how would you manage it?"

Upon hearing the question raised by Sui Yu, the young nobleman in front of him immediately began to talk: "Of course I want to find ways to increase taxes!"

"Now that our Sui Kingdom has just begun to develop, what we lack most is money! So we must try our best to make money!"

"And raising taxes is the most effective way!"

"As for the specific method of raising taxes? Naturally, it is to issue an order to increase the tax rates of all taxes in the entire territory!"

"I think that increasing the existing tax rate by 50% should be the best solution!"

"Of course, I will definitely get scolded if I do this! I have already been aware of this!"

"Although the name of kindness sounds good, but what are we? We are nobles!"

"As nobles, why should we care what the common people think of us?"

"So what about kindness? So what about cruelty?"

"My uncle is a well-known benevolent nobleman, but so what?"

"Just some false news spread by outsiders, saying that the lord secretly abducted the residents of the territory. As a result, the group of civilians who had been protected under the wings of the benevolent noble launched a rebellion, killed the noble's wife and daughter, and cut off the The arm of a nobleman with a reputation for kindness!”

"Knowing this, I decided to abandon the meaningless reputation a long time ago!"

After listening to the speech of the young noble in front of him, Sui Yu frowned slightly and felt a headache.

At this time, what Sui Yu was doing was interviewing the aristocratic children who took the initiative to join him.

Sui Yu originally thought that under the filter of the touchstone of rumors, nobles who could see through the truth behind lies and take the initiative to surrender to him must be smart people.

But after the interview, I realized that it seemed that I still thought it was a little too sweet.

The guy in front of me is clearly a guy blinded by the glory and hatred of the nobles!

It is probably because he abandoned his false reputation that he was not affected by the rumors.

Even under the influence of reverse psychology, the more the rumors spread against Sui Yu and Hawkins, the more this kid wanted to join them!

As for ability?

Sui Yu's evaluation is... nothing!

In fact, the questions Sui Yu raised before contained traps.

His question simply assumed that he would give the young man in front of him a territory and ask him how to govern it.

However, the situation in different territories cannot be generalized!

As the saying goes, "My jelly is his poison." If a policy suitable for a large territory is mindlessly copied to a small territory, it will definitely lead to self-destruction!

vice versa.

If it is a pragmatic noble, then he will definitely ask Sui Yu about the general situation of the territory, such as which area of ​​the empire it is located in, what properties are around it, and what industries are in the city.

It would be best to use real cities as test questions.

In this way, the other party can provide the best management plan based on the actual local conditions.

but…

When the other party came up, they clamored to raise taxes and said that nobles cannot be merciful.

Yes, Sui Yu's current three views have slowly been reversed. He also knows the principle of not being in charge of troops, and he must kill decisively when necessary!

Even in the real world, Sui Yu has gradually abandoned the three views of the past, and he can kill those who have uncivilized behavior without mercy!

but…

Can taxes be increased at will? !

This is not a simple matter of being kind or unkind!

Once taxes are increased indiscriminately, it will inevitably lead to a decrease in residents' income, which will lead to a decrease in residents' desire to consume.

The decline in consumption desire will inevitably lead to a decline in the income of many businesses.

In addition, in this medieval civilized world where supplies are not very abundant, there is a high probability that arbitrarily raising taxes will cause residents to starve to death!

People can do anything to survive!

By then, the level of public security will probably plummet.

Maybe, in the end, the overall tax revenue may decrease instead of increase, and it will be a mess!

As for these consequences, the guy in front of him, who is full of hatred, has not seen it at all!

"You go back and wait for the news. We will decide whether to consider hiring you after discussing it."

After hearing Sui Yu's words, the other party became anxious instantly.

"What? You want me to go back and wait for news? I am a noble! And do you know the price I paid to defect to you? Now my position in the Lawrence Empire has..."

"Someone! Drag him out!"

Sui Yu didn't bother to listen to the other party's complaints and directly ordered the person to be dragged out.

Sui Yu is short of people now, but he doesn’t want anyone!

Especially this kind of stupid person who only knows that he cannot be merciful, then it is even more unacceptable!

However, the reputation of kindness may become a shackles that binds the lord, and may even lead to revenge by the people of the lord.

Therefore, nobles do need a certain degree of cold-bloodedness and decisiveness in killing.

However, as a lord and aristocrat, you cannot really be unkind at all!

Management pays attention to finesse, and pays attention to the combination of kindness and power.

If you only show your power but don't show kindness, then it would be strange if the entire territory is not messed up!

"Next!"

Fortunately, now that there are negative rumors about Sui Yu everywhere, there are still many nobles who defect to Sui Yu.

In order to see the wisdom of others, Sui Yu drove out the cold-blooded guy who only knew about raising tax rates, and then met the next nobleman.

This nobleman is also very young.

Thinking about it, I am afraid that just because he is young, he is full of passion and is particularly active.

That's why he chose to take the initiative to defect to Sui Yu after hearing the rumors.

After listening to the question raised by Sui Yu, the young nobleman did not ask for the specific details of the territory, but also gave an answer of increasing the tax rate.

Well, this is medieval civilization after all. I’m afraid these nobles have nothing else on their mind except raising tax rates!

"I actually observed my father and two older brothers and found that they were too weak when managing the territory!"

"Those untouchables only need to make up an excuse such as a bad harvest to reduce taxes. As a result, my family has to scrimp on food and clothing every day. If they want to eat a steak, they have to wait until birthdays or holidays!"

"But fortunately, my pedantic father and two weak brothers were all killed in the previous war. Now I am the head of my family!"

"So, after inheriting the title of aristocrat, I must become a truly qualified and noble nobleman! I will also definitely become a qualified nobleman who upholds the honor of the nobleman!"

Well, look for Shuyuan www.zhaｏｈhuyuan.com After finishing the empty and wrong nonsense, he started shouting slogans.

The scene in front of him made Sui Yu's eyelids jump.

He had a hunch that the next nobles might be like this!

Speaking of which, the guy who suddenly attacked and made Sui Yu suspicious seemed to be a young nobleman.

From the information submitted by Joseph, Sui Yu also knew that as the war became more intense, many nobles died on the battlefield.

In particular, he also likes to be cruel. Even with the protection of the HP system, many nobles have been killed by him.

As a result, many members of the families of minor nobles died in battles one after another, resulting in three or even four men who were originally not qualified to inherit the family name to succeed in taking over!

And these guys who have not received aristocratic education since childhood, although they have inherited the name of nobility, do not have the most basic knowledge of nobility.

And many times, the less knowledgeable a person is, the easier it is for him to become overconfident.

This kind of person is very easy to be self-righteous and make up many things in his mind.

After all, they lack the conditions for actual operation and naturally have no experience in actually managing the territory.

And the conclusions drawn from complete imagination are bound to be castles in the air and flashy.

Well, it doesn't even have "Hua". At first glance, Sui Yu feels that the other party is definitely a loser and a waste!

In addition to talking nonsense that is completely unfeasible, and because of the low cultural level, I can't even say a few words of this kind of nonsense.

Then they would just shout slogans such as Noble Glory.

If it weren't for the generally low intelligence level of most people in this world, these new little nobles would probably be considered mentally retarded!

At this time, Sui Yu was full of pessimism. It seemed that talents were really hard to find!
