See Long Zaitian Chapter 209 Tax Reform

Who should I bring? This is a question that is not easy to answer, Princess Pingyang and Zheng Chuyao can't go back, both of them are thunder, go back and explode one by one, leaving the two of them here to appear that they are more greedy, and it is not so good to let Zhao Xiao, Zhao Feifei and Du Lian go back.

"The city still needs Xiao'er and Fei Fei to take charge, and the mutual market still needs you to take care of it, this time let Du Lian go back with me, Lord Du has written to me many times, I want to see the child and Lian'er, this time I will take Du Lian back." When I come back, I'll pack up Fan Su'an, and I'll take you all back. ”

"All back?" Shangguan Xiyue was a little puzzled, they all felt that since they all lived here, how could they go back.

Everyone regarded Toyosu City as their home, and they didn't think about returning to the capital.

"All go back, believe me, if I don't go back, someone (bī) will go back." Chen Ye left a mysterious sentence, and it was decided like this, but he made up for the girls in the evening, except for Princess Pingyang.

There is no way, Princess Pingyang is sulking in the house, and Chen Ye has no choice but to coax and coax, hug and hug, and say something nice.

This time, Chen Ye brought five hundred guards, these people are the elite of Chen Ye's fire army, and it is not an exaggeration to call them special forces according to the words of his previous life.

They have been carrying out special tasks in the grassland, carrying out the target of the tribal leader's killing, and every time they succeed, each time they come out intact, creating one myth after another, this time Chen Ye went back with more than a dozen silver, full of more than a dozen cars back.

The emperor originally wanted to make a secret decree and euphemistically express his idea of lack of money, but the court really couldn't afford it. He had already received a letter from Chen Ye, saying that he was on the way to the capital, and the speed would be very fast, so that Emperor Han Qing should not be in a hurry.

When he saw this letter, Emperor Han Qing left tears of excitement, so many of his children are more sensible than Chen Ye, according to reason, when Chen Ye comes back, it will really be a joy and a joy, and then a little life will be born in the palace.

This trip is a little slow, after all, the car is full of genuine silver, after the emperor knows the news, the local officials will do a good job of security, there is always a group of people who do not give up, they have to take possession of this batch of silver, resulting in a slowdown in the pace of travel.

Besides, some officials can still deduct some from it and gather people with them, which made Chen Ye a little headache, and he was delayed on the road for a week. waited until the support of the Jinyi Guard of the Lu Allied Army, and directly checked the local officials, and the officials' homes were found out of 500,000 taels of silver.

Directly distribute 100,000 taels, and bring the rest to the capital, and this crisis will be resolved. The efficiency of handling cases is still more efficient than Jinyiwei, and I am very happy to see Jinyiwei's achievement.

However, these Jinyiwei still have more respect for Chen Ye, and they all know that there is Jinyiwei with Chen Ye, don't look at Chen Ye leaving Jinyiwei, the people of Jinyiwei all understand one thing (qíng), Jinyiwei is now in Chen Ye's hands, Chen Ye's words are more effective than the emperor, and everyone tacitly understands it.

When I came to the capital, it was already May, and the capital was already relatively hot (rè), and the clothes on (shēn) were gradually reduced, so in order for these people to breathe, let them all wear civilian clothes, not too tight.

In Beijing in May, the wind is ten miles, and the entire Pofengling will be filled with a piece of pink smoke, the sky is full of smoke, and the 100,000 wild coxaculus trees on and below the mountain are in full bloom, and the flowers are like smoke and mist, and the dreamy pink smoke lingers in the whole mountainous area.

The moon season is fragrant in the alleys of the capital. Red, pink, orange, orange, and white moon flowers compete in the streets and alleys of the capital, in front of and behind the houses, competing for beauty, competing for bloom.

After all, Chen Ye came with silver, and the emperor was already waiting at the gate of the palace, and after Chen Ye learned the news, he ordered to increase the speed and not let the emperor wait for a long time.

This time, it was Emperor Han Qing who was waiting at the gate of the palace for the first time, and no one else had such treatment for more than ten years.

Chen Ye dismounted early, galloped to the gate of the palace, and knelt down: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

"Let's get up (shēn)" The emperor's rare kindness (qíng), took Chen Ye's hand and walked directly to the palace, the two of them basically walked side by side, which made the hundred officials sigh very much, Chen Ye's favor is too powerful, Chen Ye doesn't want to do this, he wants to slowly retreat several times, and directly pull the emperor to the front.

Baiguan really sighed, sure enough, if he is rich, he is the master, if he can send so much money, he can also have this status.

When he came to the court meeting, the emperor did it, Chen Ye didn't dare to go up, he still stood at the end of the hundred officials, and was later pulled by Gonggong Zhou to Lu Jianren's side before he was willing to stop, you must know that the opposite side is the second prince.

Now the focus of the entire court meeting is Chen Ye, Chen Ye tidied up his clothes and stood up.

"Minister, Chen Ye brought back eight million taels of silver this time, and solved the difficulties of the imperial court." Chen Ye's words were sonorous and powerful, there was no way, he felt a lot more hard when he had money to speak.

"Hiss" The entire court calmed down, Chen Ye is really rich, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Chen Ye is rich now.

"Good, Reward ......."

"Your Majesty" The emperor was about to give a reward, but was stopped by Chen Ye.

"The minister doesn't want to reward, the minister came this time for a purpose, to promote a law, our Zhongshan country used to rely mainly on the peasants to collect taxes, and the peasants were miserable. Farmers work hard to farm and pay taxes to barely make ends meet. If you can catch up with the imperial court to levy taxes, the people will be miserable, the state is not a machine to absorb the people, why is the people's life so hard, why are so many officials, so many rich people waste food and squander. Taxes should be collected from merchants (shēn), and taxes should be paid from the sale of a product, and the better the business, the greater the taxes. For salt and iron, especially establishments such as gambling should be heavily taxed. ”

"Presumptuous."

"Nonsense." Baiguan heard Chen Ye's words and cursed.

"Am I wrong? How much tax revenue from the treasury is contributed by me, and what about the book of the household! "Chen Ye's entire court, but unfortunately now that the household department has been replaced, Chen Ye can't find anyone.

A young man stood up, took out a thick notebook, and read aloud: "The Chamber of Commerce pays a total of three million taels in taxes, accounting for two-thirds of the country's tax revenue. ”

Chen Ye looked at the officials of the Manchu Dynasty and said loudly: "Did you hear it, I would like to ask why the taxes in your jurisdiction are accumulating less and less, and there are more and more chambers of commerce under your household." If you really want to finish playing this court, you want to rely on the fourteen princes. Or if you want to take refuge in a new master, I still have to promote this bill, the people's money has been collected for more than a thousand years, which time is not a peasant uprising, I collect taxes from the rich people of the world, businessmen"

"If the businessman doesn't get angry, what will happen then? Isn't the whole country chaotic (tào)? An official stood up and accused, I have to say that this may be there, but did Chen Ye give them such a chance?

"The business they don't do, I Chen Ye do, but since they dare to leave and don't open the market, then they won't do business again for the rest of their lives, as long as it's the chassis of my Chen Ye Chamber of Commerce, I don't allow them to do business again." Chen Ye's words were arrogant.

All the officials didn't think that Chen Ye was bragging, after all, Chen Ye's Chamber of Commerce had gradually covered all aspects of the entire country. If Chen Ye's Chamber of Commerce really doesn't do it, the country will directly mess up (tào).

"Minister, I implore Your Majesty to reform the tax law and reduce the burden on the peasants, and I will bear the losses of the imperial court during this period. Until the imperial court can smoothly transition. Chen Ye knelt down and begged Emperor Han Qing to reform the tax law.

Emperor Han Qing was also moved when he heard Chen Ye's remarks, these Chen Ye had told him whether taxes should be collected from the rich or from the poor.

"Yes, this matter will be handed over to Chen Ye to be responsible, and the household department will support it."

"Your Majesty, don't, Chen Ye is a demon to confuse the public"

"Your Majesty, this is the theory of the death of the country"

Emperor Han Qingcai didn't care what they said, and directly announced the end of the court meeting, and after the court meeting ended, Chen Ye, the second prince and His Majesty were in the imperial study.

"Father, I still don't think I can change like this, but Chen Ye's Chamber of Commerce gives so many taxes, I can't turn around for a while." This incident (qíng) had a big impact on the second prince, after all, it was the first time I had heard of it.

"The second prince may not be able to change for a while, and he finds that the facts he sees are a little different from what the sage said, right?" Chen Ye certainly knew why the second prince was like this.

"Alas, since you came to the back, don't talk about this, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have a drink together. I've got the Imperial Dining Room ready. "The emperor's heart (qíng) is very good, and it is of course a good thing that the matter (qíng) is resolved head-on.

Chen Ye and the emperor were very happy to eat this meal, but the second prince was a little unable to swallow.

After returning to the mansion, he told Nangong Yu about what happened in the court today (qíng), at first Nangong Yu was a little puzzled, but after thinking for a while, he finally understood Chen Ye's good intentions.

(diàn), when you first look at it, you realize that this thing is wrong, but in the long run, it is still higher to tax the rich. There are too many benefits in this, Chen Ye can also reap a lot of prestige this opportunity, and even shake the basis of the Southern Zhou, Chen Ye is drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle at this time, this trick not only solves the country's long-term tax problem, but also messes up the entire Southern Zhou. ”

"Won't those merchants run?" The second prince didn't understand.

"Don't be afraid of them running, no matter how they run, they will be in Zhongshan Country, as soon as this law comes out, Southern Zhou will be defeated. Besides, Chen Ye can't wait for them to run, if they all run, Chen Ye can enter any industry, all the profits go to the Chamber of Commerce, and the country also has a stable tax revenue, and when they react, there is no place for them, which is equivalent to a reshuffle of the country's wealth. This is a good opportunity, why should we hurry up and do business! Nangong Yu took a fancy to the Dao in this at a glance.
