So these boyars were allowed to wake up after drinking. After their spirits were completely restored, they were invited collectively to enter the parliament court in the city.

The parliament court was bustling with excitement. It was widely rumored that the king was going to announce a tax exemption order. When talking about this, many people simply shook violently with excitement, which was beyond the control of personal willpower.

Then when Rurik, a noble and kind man, appeared on the stage, all the boyars stood up one after another, roaring, stomping on the floor, and applauding, making a lot of noise in various ways.

Rurik waved to them and didn't bother to elaborate on the polite words.

Governor Medvet was present, as was the Supreme Clerk Ella, who stood on the left and right of Rurik respectively. Only in this way did the smart people among the boyars fully understand the meaning of the meeting. Because of any taxation activities, the governor would send

People carry the physical agricultural tax and supervise its implementation, while the top clerk sends people to do statistical work, and records everything in writing becomes the evidence.

Rurik said bluntly: "Have you all heard the news? I tell you that everything is true!"

The scene that had just been quiet quickly boiled like boiling water.

He slapped the low podium hard and scolded everyone to be quiet with a smile.

He also solemnly announced: "The tax exemption should have been last year, but something went wrong. Therefore, this year's tax exemption will take over from last year! It is also because the war was a great success, so glorious that it deserves the tax exemption. It will continue to be tax exempt next year. Since it has been tax-free for two years, let me give you another one.

Year after year, the tax exemption will continue the year after that. A full three years! This year is 841, and the tax exemption will continue until 843. When we collect agricultural taxes again, it will be 844!"

Rurik repeated more about the specific time to ensure that Boyar, who was hard of hearing, heard clearly.

They cheered wildly, praising the king for his wisdom, and praised the king with the best words in Slavic vocabulary, "Slava" and "Skoy", which together means "glorious hero".

The tax exemption order was first announced in Novgorod and then implemented in all settlements throughout the kingdom.

So, now that the tax is exempted, what will happen to the country’s expenditure? Will there be no fiscal deficit?

Due to the seizures of the war, and even the continuous blood transfusion of the metal smelting industry directly controlled by the royal family, the wealth flowing into the national treasury would indeed be more and more if the expenses of the huge war were reduced. After all, only agricultural taxes are exempted, and commercial taxes and customs are exempted.

Taxes should still be collected. What's more, he made some calculations and found that the war in 840 had indeed turned into a trade war, and the Eastern Kingdom had completely opened its doors to Ross. Ross now has the best iron ore in Europe, and it is the kingdom.

The huge source of wealth in the current historical stage is the export of iron products to Saxony, Flanders, the Netherlands, Britain and East Francia. The local geographical conditions determine that they are indeed short of iron, and it is impossible to refuse the good iron from the north.

Only in this regard, history has returned to its normal course. Since the Kingdom of Sweden discovered large iron ore, it began to export crude sponge iron or iron iron to the Holy Roman Empire. HRE craftsmen refined the iron iron, and then in the 15th century

Learning the technology of steelmaking and hydraulic forging made steel popularize rapidly. Shinra was able to achieve this largely by relying on the annual transportation of Swedish iron ore. This transportation is a thousand-year transportation.

Rurik did not do this intentionally. Due to various considerations, selling iron products to Saxony and the Eastern Kingdom is the best solution to seize local wealth. He is now in Novgorod, and he can be sure that Russian armed cargo ships will begin to circle around.
