Chapter 1826 Coercion and temptation, trying to see the poor dagger
Hearing the eldest grandson Wuji say "Jiangnan Yujin", Xiao Yu's beard and eyebrows trembled together, but he was silent.
This is not good, but he has the same position as the eldest grandson Wuji, commercial taxes or something, absolutely cannot be collected, a Huating town has already made the Jiangnan family miserable, and a lot of profits are wasted every year, if all businesses are taxed...... Then you can't live.
Cen Wenwen and the eldest grandson Wuji had a dispute.
In fact, no one can help anyone in such disputes, and anyone can tell a reason.
The most fundamental truth is that the world's merchants and goods are all in the hands of the family gate valve, and the family gate valve is the foundation of the empire's stability, so no matter how strong the emperor is, he can't ignore the stability of the society and seize the benefits from the family gate valve.
Even Emperor Yang of Sui, who was arrogant and arrogant and considered himself the best in the world, did not dare to do this, and even if he didn't do it, he would lose the country......
Watching the two of them arguing indifferently, His Majesty Li Er was silent, slowly sipping tea, and when the two of them were arguing, no one could help anyone, and His Majesty Li Er knocked on the table and said slowly: "Fang Jun obtained the right to open a business port in the Wa Kingdom, everyone has heard about this, right?" ”
Seeing that the emperor diverted the topic, the eldest grandson Wuji and Cen Wenwen stopped arguing, took a breath, and sat silent.
The prince said: "Fang Jun is really effective, this hand is beautiful, Goguryeo is noisy, and he hid his own sailors, but Fang Jun turned a corner and ran to the Japanese country to occupy an island, found a gold mine, and then sent troops to quell the Japanese civil strife and got the right to open a treaty port." From now on, the Datang goods and colonies will only need to pay taxes in accordance with the regulations of the Japanese kingdom immediately, and enjoy the same treatment as the Japanese merchants, and then it is impossible to impose heavy taxes on the Datang goods and colonies as before. ”
Ma Zhou also said: "Huating Hou's utilitarianism is in the future, and His Majesty should be rewarded." ”
His Majesty Li Er slowly bowed his head.
The eldest grandson Wuji, Xiao Yu, and Zhang Xingcheng also echoed together, after all, they are all beneficiaries of the opening up of the trade route of the Japanese Kingdom, of course, the biggest benefit is still the imperial court, because all the goods that enter the Japanese Kingdom are bound to go through the city and be knocked out of the bones, which is inevitable......
But even so, the huge market of the Japanese country is enough to make everyone make a lot of money.
Then, Ma Zhou said slowly: "Your Majesty, although it is a good thing to benefit the country and the people by opening the trade route of the Japanese State, the businessmen are short-sighted and only know how to pursue profits. In the opinion of Wei Chen, why not let the city department set a quota, screen businessmen, and distribute licenses, and only those who have licenses can go to the country to do business? In this way, under the control of a group of businessmen, the pricing and sales of goods can be uniformly dispatched, and those who deceive the market at indiscriminate pricing will be severely punished by revocation of licenses! ”
As soon as these words came out, the eldest grandson Wuji and the other three almost jumped up and scolded!
Although the Japanese state is not as large as the Tang Dynasty, the territory of thousands of miles and the number of people is billions of trillions, but compared to those small countries are also behemoths, once they obtain the right to trade, even if they pull a boatload of stones, they can still make money. Such a vast market means a huge amount of wealth, and naturally whoever has the ability will earn it.
However, if you really screen the businessmen and distribute the licenses, it is equivalent to choking the businessmen's necks!
At that time, if you are asked to go east, you will not dare to go west, and if you are asked to chase dogs, you will not dare to catch chickens...... Defy? If you don't accept it, your license will be revoked, go home and play eggs!
This is not over, the prince added another sentence on the side: "Mafu Yin's advice is indeed strategic, which can make there less competition and more cooperation between Tang businessmen, and everyone will hold each other instead of fighting openly and secretly, which can naturally maximize benefits." The father and the emperor and the sons thought that the Nanyang countries could also promulgate this law. ”
Xiao Yu's face turned green.
The world's merchants are all in the hands of the family gatekeepers, but for Nanyang, it is obvious that the Jiangnan scholars have taken advantage of the geographical advantage, since ancient times, the wealthy merchants of Jiangnan have sailed to the sea, and sold the goods in the Nanyang, which is deep-rooted, so the profits are greater, but for the Guanlong nobles, it is dispensable.
He wanted to say something, but it was too ugly, and at the moment when he was wandering, he only heard His Majesty Li Er say slowly: "Ladies and gentlemen, collecting business taxes is an urgent matter, and businessmen are also the people of the Tang Dynasty, and the people need to pay taxes when they farm, but businessmen do not pay taxes, how unfair is it?" It is natural to take commercial taxes to make up for the lack of national use. ”
This can be regarded as a dictatorship, no matter whether you agree or not, I will go my own way!
Where can this work?
The eldest grandson Wuji, Xiao Yu, and Zhang Xingcheng were all a little dumbfounded.
Although the emperor is a little conceited and stubborn, he can still listen to the advice, could it be that Wei Zheng is dead, this has no natural enemies, and he has no scruples?
The three of them silently organized the words in their hearts, and they heard the emperor say quietly: "The land of Fujian and Guangdong is transported to Huating Town to go to sea, and it needs to pass through the mountains of Wuyue, among which the geese are steep, although they have ordered the division to dig the mountain road, but it is still difficult to walk, and there are disasters when traveling to and from the guests, and I can't bear it." If you load the ship and go to sea, you need to go north along the coast, and when you arrive at Huating Town, you also have to unload the number of tea on the ship, and retrieve whether there are any prohibited things, which is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, I plan to choose a place along the coast of Fujian and Guangdong, and add a city shipping department, and all regulations should be modeled after the city shipping division of Huating Town, what do you think? ”
Xiao Yu immediately swallowed back the words that came to his lips.
Which is the fattest official in Datang Oil and Water?
It's not the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it's not the master craftsman who will be the supervisor, it's not even the head of the Ministry of Industry, and it's not even the official in charge of making coins, but the head of the City Shipping Department!
How many goods are imported and exported in and out of Huating Town City every day?
Without internal account books, it is difficult for outsiders to know the details, but according to the estimation of well-intentioned people, at least the goods presented on the books of the city company every day will definitely not be less than 300,000 yuan!
It's just one day!
How much is a year?
100 million ......
Although it is only the valuation of the goods on the books, and it is not even a running water, it must be known that the commercial tax is charged according to the cost! No matter how much money you sell or how much you make, the tax rate of one out of ten taxes is real.
The commercial tax collected by a Huating town city is as high as 10 million yuan a year, which must be more than the total national tax last year, which is three times the national tax in the early years of Wude......
It's no wonder that the emperor is obsessed with collecting commercial taxes across the country, and this money is really enjoyable to collect!
This is also Fang Jun's net worth of billions of dollars rivals the country, and he can't use greedy means to collect money, otherwise the entire Huating Town and City Bo Division is his people up and down, inside and out, how much money can he be greedy?
Of course, it is precisely because of this that the emperor will hand over this fat errand to Fang Jun to control......
Now the question is, who is in charge of the addition of the city department in Fujian and Guangdong?
It is naturally impossible for Fang Jun to be the head of the two cities in the north and south, so the new one is bound to be selected from the court.
If anyone can hold this position in their hands, it will be difficult to think about underdevelopment!
You don't even need to be greedy for public money, you only need to loosen your hands a little, and the wealth that flows out in a year is enough to be worth the income of a top gate valve......
Xiao Yu suppressed his heartbeat, and his brain was spinning rapidly.
Of course, he knew that the emperor would never easily hand over the head of this city department to any person who was a gate valve, but he knew better that today the emperor and the crown prince sang and harmonized, and there were Ma Zhou and Cen Wenwen next to them.
The eldest grandson Wuji and Zhang Xingcheng were also suspicious, and they were both considering the emperor's true intentions.
His Majesty Li Er is not a person who is very deep in the city, and after going around the bend, he is already a little impatient, thinking about when did Fang Jun learn such hypocrisy and cunning? Thinking about the premonitions in the newspaper, I felt a little unhappy in my heart.
Compared with these roundabout calculations of foreshadowing first and then throwing bait, the last big stick and sweet dates in the other, he actually felt that the guy still went straight and did it without convincing, and his style of acting was more refreshing......
Of course, he also knows that commercial taxation is a major matter, so he must be cautious, and no matter how much he calculates, it is not too much. Once the trip is completed, the imperial court will benefit from the eternal years, and the money will be taken out of the pocket of the family gate valve to supplement the national use, and the power of the gate valve will naturally weaken.
It can even be said that the importance of commercial tax is only a little lower than that of the imperial examination......
His Majesty Li Er felt that the bait and sweet dates had been almost given, and the coercion and temptation had been used, so it was time to take out the big stick and knock on these family door valves.
So, he coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "The world's social studies, thousands of thousands, are the foundation of the country's talents, so I decided to take out money from the treasury to build school buildings, subsidize students, and hire teachers!" At the same time, the world's businessmen pay commercial tax at the rate of ten taxes and one tax, and give it a permanent system! The tax will be used for the repair of the city, the maintenance of roads, and the subsidy of the state and county hospitals! ”
Then, he straightened his back, looked around with tiger eyes, and asked word by word, "Who...... Do you have any objections? ”
seems to be majestic and solemn, but in fact, he is muttering in his heart: It's good that I didn't say what Fang Er's mallet taught me, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
What" Your Majesty sat on the throne at that time, looked around, and said sharply: Who is for and who is against? Then the ministers of the hall will inevitably tremble, be honestly afraid, and bow their heads to their ears"......
!
Is that what the emperor can do?
It's simply a market ranger gathering and sharing the spoils, losing the identity of the emperor.
