The True Foundation of the Wang Family’s Prosperity (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_5 Of course, to avoid attracting undue attention with too many Great Heavenly Prouds, the fact that he had beco one couldn’t be made public, but because of this, Wang Shou Yong had plenty of confidence.
After all, this was a Great Heavenly Proud, a future Divine Power Seed, and in the entire Great Qian Land, their number could be counted on one’s fingers.
In the past six months, he had deeply experienced the benefits of becoming a Great Heavenly Proud. Not only had his cultivation speed surged rapidly, but his affinity for spiritual energy and understanding of laws had also seed to step into a new realm, greatly enhancing his strength in an extrely short period of ti.
Currently, although his rank was still at Level One of the Heavenly Human Realm, his actual combat power had changed so much it was like night and day compared with before.
Additionally, his fourth brother had said that aside from the fact that their bloodline talent absolutely couldn’t be revealed, there wouldn’t be a big issue even if his top-quality magical treasure was exposed at a critical mont.
With such various enhancents, today’s Wang Shou Yong, even when facing Jiang Yusong, whose rank was several levels higher than his own, showed no fear and was brimming with confidence.
This had indeed earned him a few more points of respect from Jiang Yusong.
“Brother Shou Yong, those few groups of people who have co down for the secret investigation have all been quite cautious. They’ve been very careful with their actions lately, and they’ve covered their tracks well—it seems they’re all old hands,” Jiang Yusong said with a relaxed face, sipping his tea and showing no sign of concern, “Unfortunately for them, they don’t realize all their moves are under the Wang family’s surveillance; they really think they’re being very secretive~”
Of course, this ti’s visitors were not just a single group, with several parties entering Ping’an Town in different batches.
“The tax officials who have co this ti are probably all the sturdy pillars from the Three Talents Section—seasoned and not to be underestimated. If it were any other Prominent Family they were investigating, they surely would have found sothing amiss,” Wang Shou Yong said calmly, taking a sip of tea without any intent to underestimate those tax officials. “However, our Wang family has always paid taxes honestly, never having evaded nor omitted them, so naturally, we aren’t afraid of a thorough investigation.”
Jiang Yusong was sowhat impressed by this.
Although he had a lot of confidence in Wang Shouzhe and believed he could resolve this trouble, he truly hadn’t expected that the Changning Wang Clan had really never evaded or omitted taxes.
The first ti he heard about this, even he was sowhat incredulous, only choosing to tentatively believe it after seeing Wang Shouzhe’s assertion written with such certainty.
Yet, even so, he was still a bit uneasy. Thus, in addition to the Wang family’s people, he had also been secretly keeping a close watch on the tax officials’ investigation progress.
It was because of this that he was finally convinced that this seemingly outrageous fact was actually true.
Every ti he thought of this, he couldn’t help but feel deeply moved: “Master Shouzhe truly deserves to be Master Shouzhe; he had already prepared for this decades ago. Even with the extensive imagination of those from the Three Talents Section, they probably couldn’t imagine that Master Shouzhe had been guarding against them since then, already prepared for a tax investigation.”
“Of course. With Fourth Brother’s usual prudence, how could he give others a handle on the issue of taxation? If we hadn’t made thorough preparations, how would the Wang family dare to step into the maelstrom of the Emperor’s son’s struggle?” Wang Shou Yong smiled, clearly full of confidence in Wang Shouzhe. “Besides, Fourth Brother has said that taxation is the foundation of the country; without sufficient tax revenue, how can a nation be strong? And since a Prominent Family has the responsibility of maintaining peace within its borders, it naturally should set a good example in paying taxes; otherwise, how can it command respect?”
In fact, Wang Shouzhe had always been very strict with tax matters.
Due to the prevalent issue of tax evasion in the current Great Qian Land’s Prominent Families, and with Wang family mbers having thought of secretly skimping on taxes in the past, they were imdiately discovered and stopped by Wang Shouzhe. He stressed this matter ti and again during family etings and implented a series of severe punishnts to curb this unhealthy trend.
That was where Wang Shouzhe drew the confidence to let those tax officials investigate as they pleased.
Wang Shouzhe’s actions were not only for the sake of the Wang family’s developnt, to avoid giving others a grip on them but also to set an example for the younger generations of the family.
After all, if the elders themselves set a bad example by casually trampling on national laws and rules, then what right did they have to expect the younger generation to abide by them?
Wang Shouzhe had always put great effort into reforming the Clan School, hoping to cultivate a group of social elites who dared to strive for their ideals and struggle hard, not a swarm of law-enforcers and rule-disdainers.
Wang Shou Yong was aware of these details and agreed with them deeply. Thus, as he spoke now, he did so with ample confidence.
“Master Shouzhe truly is Master Shouzhe; his vision and breadth of mind are indeed beyond the common man,” Jiang Yusong sighed with a smile. “No wonder the children of the Wang family all perform so brilliantly, and even their bearing seems different.”
Initially, with Wang Shouzhe not around, his heart was sowhat uneasy, but now seeing Wang Shou Yong handling affairs so steadily and effortlessly, he felt much more reassured.
Indeed, the brothers around Wang Shouzhe were no simple characters, each and every one not to be underestimated.
“Brother Jiang, now that the fish have entered the net, and the bait is in place, what follows is up to you,” Wang Shou Yong said, moving from casual conversation to a serious expression.
