Waste Paper Bridge
Chapter 66 Come, Let's Sell Temporary Residence Permits!
Ye Chuxiao waved his hand. "No large-scale investigations. Targeted locking is enough."
"We can't squeeze any oil from small fries. Just aim at the suspicious targets in the major families and forces. We'll hold them by the neck and peddle temporary residence permits."
"Anyone without a temporary residence permit is an illegal stowaway and must be expelled. Those who commit crimes will be thrown directly into prison."
Jin Sanniang was stunned. Zhao Sibai, who was gorging himself, also stopped his frantic movements and looked at Ye Chuxiao as if he were a monster.
Qiao Wuqi and Cui Yu also turned their heads to look at Ye Chuxiao, their expressions calm, waiting for what he would say next.
"This... will it work? Wouldn't it be too much of a move, offending too many forces?" Jin Sanniang hesitated.
Although if they really started issuing 'temporary residence permits' to trans界者 (kuajie zhe, cross-border travelers), the entire Six Doors would have to exert themselves and bear the pressure.
But Jin Sanniang was, after all, Ye Chuxiao's direct superior.
This temporary residence permit thing sounded like it wouldn't be very profitable, but it would offend a whole bunch of people. No matter how strong the Six Doors was, it was far from being able to cover the sky in Daheng.
"Offend? How so?"
"You don't think we're going to do it by brute force, do you?"
"Give them a beating, then a sweet date, don't you understand?"
"Increase the efforts to search for 'contraband' sold without permission, increase tariffs on some non-native products, open up a batch of Daheng's inherent specialties for external circulation, and at the same time, provide formal official identities to trans界者 (kuajie zhe, cross-border travelers) with temporary residence permits, give them certain welfare benefits, and even support their long-term immigration and settlement in Daheng."
"Come down hard on those without temporary residence permits, and show ardent care for those with temporary residence permits, treat them differently, don't you understand?" Ye Chuxiao said in surprise.
These things were all methods that had been eliminated long ago in Ye Chuxiao's previous life.
It's hard to make big money by making money from a money-making perspective.
From the perspective of changing certain original rules and regulations, and making adjustments that are more in line with the current era, money will flock in even if you don't actively make it.
The quick-witted Jin Sanniang, Cui Yu, and Qiao Wuqi had already understood, and they looked at Ye Chuxiao as if they were looking at a demon.
They seemed to vaguely feel what kind of power and money-sucking beast Ye Chuxiao was releasing.
"Making money! It's nothing more than having two conditions: having what others don't have and resource integration."
"However, having what others don't have requires facing fierce competition, and it must also be a necessity to a certain extent. There are too many restrictions. If it's not related to food, clothing, housing, and transportation, the profit point is actually not high. It's hard work to earn some hard-earned money. The five Divine Arresters of the Six Doors probably wouldn't agree."
"So, what's really suitable for the Six Doors is resource integration."
"The Six Doors has this basic strength, it's just a matter of adjusting the direction and working hard to mobilize," Ye Chuxiao said.
Jin Sanniang had also said that the Six Doors had a hand in the lucrative industries of canal transportation, salt transportation, horse trading, and tea trading.
Ye Chuxiao was not interested in exploring how deep the water behind this was.
But if it was just borrowing channels to broaden the profit points, then it would be making the cake bigger for the entire Six Doors.
Even if a small number of people opposed it for some shady reasons, the vast majority of people should support and agree with it.
"I understand! The temporary residence permit is not a restriction, but a way to make money," Zhao Sibai said loudly, belatedly slapping his forehead.
The topic had already entered the next stage, and he was still going around in circles in the previous one.
It's no wonder he was despised for not being smart.
So no one paid any attention to the slow-witted Zhao Sibai.
"Setting the framework, setting the rules, building the platform, controlling the channels, once this set of combination punches comes down, the temporary residence permit is not only a way to make money, but also a way for the Six Doors to control a large number of trans界者 (kuajie zhe, cross-border travelers). If it can really be done, it will not only solve the Six Doors' lack of money, but also solve the problem of insufficient manpower," Jin Sanniang said, getting more and more excited.
Then she drank the wine in her glass in one gulp.
"Ye Chuxiao! You really are a genius, no wonder you can transform the Ministry of Justice's prison so much in less than a year."
"Cui Yu, Wuqi, treat Little Ye well."
"I have to go see Lord Shi first, whether it can really be done needs Lord Shi to decide." After saying that, Jin Sanniang left a bag of money and left first.
Cui Yu was not outstanding in appearance, but she had a gentle and intelligent temperament.
At this time, her eyes wandered over the three silver badges, and she actually handed the bag of money directly to Qiao Wuqi.
"I also have something to do, I'll take a step first, Wuqi... take care of Little Ye!" After saying that, she got up and left, and quickly disappeared into the bright lights.
After the women were gone, the three silver badges who had only known each other for a short time drank in silence for a while. The Western Regions Hu Ji dance, which they had occasionally watched before, was no longer of interest to them at this time.
"We're all grown men, what's there to be so hesitant about!"
"I propose, let's change the venue!"
"It's too plain here! Let's go to a more risqué place," Zhao Sibai said loudly, his face flushed with alcohol.
Qiao Wuqi said, "Nuan Chun Pavilion, I'm very familiar with the mama there, I guarantee the girls she introduces are all good."
The two's gazes turned to Ye Chuxiao.
Ye Chuxiao put down his wine glass. "Let's go!"
The three of them walked together under the night lights. The atmosphere, which was a little stiff at first, began to become inexplicably harmonious and compatible.
Qiao Wuqi looked unremarkable, but unexpectedly, his driving skills were superb. A night of fish and dragon dance, without a single rollover.
He fully let Ye Chuxiao appreciate what the Daheng nightlife was like, and was even more amazed by the creativity of the Daheng practitioners.
I can only say... being able to cultivate is really amazing.
In short, this night's fish and dragon dance is best left unmentioned.
Waking up from the milky white bath in the morning, Ye Chuxiao stood up and stretched.
His flesh body, which had been reshaped many times, allowed him to be full of energy when he woke up in the morning.
Without having to do it himself, a maid naturally came forward to help wipe his body and put on his clothes.
At the entrance of Nuan Chun Pavilion, the three silver badges met again. At this time, the three of them had become buddies, with their arms around each other's shoulders.
"Last night, Little Ye spent too much. Next time... next time it's my treat. When I get a few admission tickets to Nianxue Nunnery, I'll let Little Ye broaden your horizons," Zhao Sibai said, yawning and covering his lower back.
There were too many tricks last night, and the bag of money left by Jin Sanniang was not enough to spend.
Ye Chuxiao paid for the rest of the night halfway through, otherwise it would inevitably be a little unsatisfying.
"What's the point of that?"
"I have a good friend who is an inner disciple of Binghu Villa," Qiao Wuqi said slowly, his eyes slightly dark under his eyes, and he looked up at the dazzling sun.
Zhao Sibai exclaimed, "Thief! You actually have this kind of relationship, I've never heard you mention it before."
Qiao Wuqi said, "The female cultivators of Binghu Villa don't look at money, they only value appearance, talent, and knowledge. Which of these do you, Zhao Sibai, have that is worth me recommending you?"
Zhao Sibai was speechless for a moment, and could only say some complaining words to ease the embarrassment.
Ye Chuxiao also nodded at this time and said, "Good! From now on, I'll have to rely on the two brothers to lead the way."
Saying that, he changed the subject and said, "But right now, there are still many important things to do, and we can't delay our cultivation."
"Speaking of cultivation, I have some doubts that I would like to ask the two brothers."
The silver badges of the Six Doors are all genuine elites.
At the very least, they are at the peak of the Neng Realm, and they must have made outstanding achievements before they can be promoted exceptionally. The Miao Realm and Hua Realm are the mainstream.
For a cultivator like Ye Chuxiao, who nominally hasn't even entered the Neng Realm, to be able to obtain the position of a silver badge can only be because he has other uses and belongs to a special talent.
It's right for Ye Chuxiao to ask these two for advice on cultivation problems!
They are more than capable of giving some basic guidance.
