Section 1034 Truth II of the Idol of the Great God

If the accounts are not clear, then redo the accounts and make the accounts as clear as spring water!

If you really can't clear it, then destroy the account, in short, you must not leave a handle.

The key is grey clearance!

In order to make money but not openly accept bribes, the Ottoman corrupt officials sent out white ---gloves to refer to those who played in the front desk and did dirty things for the court officials, who were "middlemen" and "middlemen" in order to make money but not accept bribes openly.

The "middleman" of collusion between the government and businessmen, usually if the goods of foreign businessmen are exported to the port city of France and Australia, when going through the customs clearance procedures, the owner of the goods does not deal with the corresponding customs yamen, but has to contact the middleman. The owner of the goods only needs to pay a fee to the intermediary, that is, the intermediary is responsible for filing the tax declaration of the goods, and the owner of the goods does not even have to deal with the customs, and the intermediary will go through the formalities with the customs.

The intermediaries are closely linked to the customs, and most of them have real power figures acting as backstage. It has the advantage of allowing merchants' goods to enter the local market quickly, but it is this method of customs clearance that brings endless trouble to foreign merchants.

After the goods are cleared, the intermediary usually does not issue a formal customs declaration form and tax bill to the cargo owner, and the goods exported to Turkey by the cargo owner cannot get the formal customs declaration form from the local customs, and there is no relevant certificate.

Therefore, as long as you investigate, you will definitely find "evidence of illegality".

The point is that these intermediaries have complex backgrounds, they come forward to collect money for corrupt officials, and in order to pursue higher profits, they often understate the quantity and price of goods and change the name of goods, etc., resulting in serious inconsistencies between imported goods and customs declarations.

Therefore, the owner of the goods cannot get the customs declaration form, and even does not know what the name and price of the intermediary declares the customs, and the goods can pass the customs anyway. In this way, once the local authorities inspect it, then there must be something wrong with these goods.

In such cases, confiscation of goods or the issuance of large fines are in line with the principle of "acting in accordance with the law".

The problem is, if you want to pay taxes according to the law, you can't get through in Port Fao.

If you pay taxes according to the law, what will the officials eat?

At that time, there were few investment channels, and it was not easy to get money, and things that were easy to come to money were often occupied by the royal family, and officials could not reach out.

Finally, there is a foreign trade, officials at all levels who do not stretch out their hands!

The Ottoman Empire has developed so far, it has been decayed, the government is corrupt, and there are a large number of middlemen on the docks of the port city of Fao, one by one, stretching their necks, showing hungry wolf-like eyes, waiting for a piece of the pie.

Many foreign merchants would not look for them when they came to the port city of Fao, and they had their own familiar intermediaries who worked for them and were responsible for leveling the Ottoman customs.

Foreign businessmen from various countries believe that it is impossible to take the road of formal customs declaration in the Ottoman Empire, because these intermediaries are in fact the agents of the local customs and government, and if they do not go through these intermediaries to go to the customs declaration, not only the procedures are extremely troublesome, but more importantly, they cannot afford to spend this time.

This kind of intermediary customs declaration system is gray customs clearance, although the "gray customs clearance" has endless troubles, but businessmen from all over the world, including Chinese businessmen, have no choice but to take this road.

You said that the negotiations between the upper echelons, saying that we have to pay taxes legally, do not want to gray customs clearance?

Yes, the Ottoman Empire will never recognize that their country is not good!

At best, they examine themselves, but they do not allow outsiders to talk about it, after all, the Ottoman Empire has its pride.

Now that the above is in earnest, the trouble of "gray customs clearance" will come.

The middlemen who used to gather on the wharf all disappeared, and the foreign businessmen had to honestly go to the local customs yamen to declare the customs, but the result was as slow as an old ox trailer, and the foreign businessmen complained.

Under the limelight, the crooked nuts in the port city are decreasing day by day, the market is depressed, and the business of those who remain is light.

……

Therefore, the country is strong, and the Chinese abroad can stand up.

According to Lord Fario's idea, he really wanted to confiscate the goods of the Chinese, but he didn't dare!

It was only a day since the storm he set off, and a Chinese cruiser had already appeared outside the port of Fao, and its movements were superb.

The Chinese officers on the ship, neatly dressed in military uniforms, brought a team of musketeers ashore to visit one of his assistants, McNee, and declared that the evacuation of overseas Chinese would not cause trouble to the Ottoman Empire, and hoped that there would be no trouble!

People had guns in their hands, so Faris had no choice but to let go of the Chinese and their followers, and simply let go of the foreign businessmen, asking them to pay customs duties, or simply take away the goods, so as not to cause trouble to everyone.

The accounts are smoothed out so that there is no leakage.

One by one, the warehouses will be counted, but this is very difficult, so many warehouses, as dense as chess, unless there is an inside line, so Faris took the three leaders to explain to the people below not to talk nonsense, he said fiercely: "There are people behind our family, it doesn't matter which of you wants to harm us, if you hurt those vizier Pasha can't get the silver dollar, whoever does it, he can't run, he will definitely die!" ”

So, when the Istanbul inspection team arrived in the port city of Fao, the officials in the inspection team found a model city, the streets were as if they had been washed, nothing bad could be found, the accounts were clear, and Fario and the officials were very clean.

There was a feeling that there was nowhere to start, and there was a fear that not only would they not be able to take down Faris, but they would not even be able to give an account to the Istanbul court.

With great fanfare, I sent people down vigorously, but I didn't expect such a result.

I really can't find the loophole of Fario, this lord has been operating in the port city of Fao for a long time, deep-rooted, powerful, and everyone is in awe.

Fario's backstage powers are vast, and he got the content to be inspected by the inspection team early, and Fario has a purpose, covers all aspects, and fills the loopholes.

Did the Ottoman Empire really have such incorruptible officials?

No matter how stupid people are, they know that if they kill all those officials, someone will be wronged, but if they are killed one by one, there will definitely be many people who will slip through the net.

Let the officials of the inspection team check more, the more their faces are pale, and there are ghosts in M!

The inspection team is mainly three adults, one is one and two deputies, the main envoy is Jihad, a middle-aged man in his forties, with black beard and black eyes, unsmiling, and rigorous temperament; The deputy envoy is a few years younger than Jihad, a bald and fat man, always smiling on his face, his temperament is very similar to Fario, they are all authentic Ottoman bureaucrats, smiling in the face, there is a set behind his back, in the words of another deputy envoy Issam's private complaints, it is obvious that Mess Oud is an internal ghost, of course, this cannot be said publicly; As for Issam, he is a young man, not yet thirty years old, he can be a deputy envoy, and he is young in officialdom, mainly because he is tough in the background, young and energetic, enthusiastic, and bent on doing practical things for the empire.

Issam really said it right, Max Oud is indeed an internal ghost, he and Fario looked at each other and smiled when they met, and it was strange that the inspection team could find out what big problems in the city of Port Fao with him.

It is you who have a good plan, I have a wall ladder, when the villains are powerful, this is the protection of officials and officials, and it is the truth of officialdom two!
