"It's the machine tool use tax, there is a grain tax on the use of farmland, and the machine is stronger than the farmland, is there a problem with collecting some taxes?" Wang Yan said.

"You are ridiculous, pigs have to be fattened and killed, and now there are so few people in the Great Song Dynasty who use machinery, you are doing this, those who have evacuated from agriculture are frightened, how can you dare to bet on investment? If they don't enter the yard, who will sell the machinery and equipment of your machinery factory and my coal yard to? You don't think about that? Cao Ji said.

Wang Yan said: "Of course, I think about it, but the situation in my Great Song Dynasty makes me afraid, and the outsiders, including you, can't move, and can't move." If this gimmick is not settled now, the more people who have machinery in the future, the more the machine tool use tax will not be collected. Xianggong I just have to be reluctant to come, now the early days of the rules set here, there will be a machine tool use tax, how can there be no tax? Those who are willing to accept it will enter, and those who are unwilling will continue to wait and see, they will not enter my 'SASAC' to enter the market, and the machines will not be bought or sold now, they will not buy and I will buy, let them lend me money, I will buy and I will use, and I will pay taxes to the imperial court. ”

Hearing this, it didn't seem to be a joke, Cao Ji took a deep breath, it mainly depends on how much the tax is, too much is impossible, the rules of the Great Song Dynasty can't be too ruthless, and it won't be extinct. Generally speaking, the verdict on any tax will be more lenient than in history.

Wang Yan softened his tone again: "The tax rules will definitely be determined, but everyone knows that I don't look ugly, and I will be given a tax reduction period to stimulate the increase of my Dasong steam engine and machine tools, so that it can run for a long time." ”

In this regard, Cao Ji laughed miserably: "Wang Gongchen, at that time, the imperial court was discussing the funding of the Machinery Industry Department, and he pinched all the income from your field to death, and did not take out a penny, saying that you would find your own way out." And passed a loose regulation, allowing your company to set a certain degree of charging rules in order to find a way out, and as a result, this future will be so big that the interests of madness fall into your hands? ”

"There are gains and losses, I am not a god, he is not Wang Gongchen, let alone buy and leave, now I say that these have an egg. In short, it is basically conclusive, there is no discussion, farmland and machinery are tools of production, and the tools of production that can provide value must pay a certain amount of taxes, and that's it. As for the industrial tax reduction period, it will definitely be exempted this year and next year, and I will measure the thrust-to-weight ratio of the steam engine more in the future, and then gradually enter the full tax period through many years of excess. Wang Yan said.

After a pause, he said: "Similarly, in addition to the machine tool use tax, every locomotive involved in the operation must be levied a 'railway construction tax'. Part of the front car can be handed over to you to operate under the rules and regulations, but the road is mine, and you have to pay taxes. Of course, the toll collected by our company is definitely not as good as the bridge toll collected by you, which can be conclusive. Everyone is welcome to supervise. ”

"Ten thousand taxes! Ten thousand taxes! ”

Cao Ji fainted, vaguely feeling that it was over, and the first-generation locomotive that had been developed with great manpower and material resources didn't know how much it could sell?

But fortunately, Dayan said: "In the same way, in order to support railway transportation, the railway construction tax can also be temporarily reduced, and it will also be excessively paid year by year." It's the same, if Ye Qinghua doesn't buy the front of your locomotive, then I'll buy it, I'll buy it and I'll use it, I'll pay the railway construction tax to the imperial court, and if you're willing to enter, you can play, and if you don't want to, lend me the money, eat melons and wait and see. ”

Cao Ji thought for a moment and asked, "You have to buy everything yourself?" Do you have that much money? Don't you say that the millions of dollars in your machinery factory are enough for you to play this? So who believes you to temporarily reduce taxes? ”

Wang Yan smiled and said: "There will always be people who believe it, don't look at the many people who oppose me and scold me, but sometimes they have to listen to the opposite." Suppose I issue railway industrial bonds, do you believe that those guys who have a lot of money and have nowhere to go while fooling others that this is a toxic bond cannot be bought, and on the other hand, they will send the money to me to eat interest? ”

Khan, this is true, if it is really a bond issued by Dayan, Cao Ji is the first person who wants to buy it, and at the same time, he will definitely comment that this is a toxic bond, don't buy it.

In fact, no matter how hateful a person is, when he has been to him many times, there will always be people who believe in him, and Cao Ji is the one who believes in Da Yan very much.

Anyway, Cao Ji is not a politician, and he doesn't want to talk to Wang Yan about a few industrial taxes for the time being, so he said worriedly: "Let me ask you a serious matter, last time you predicted a flood, the south did have a local disaster, but it didn't reach the capital." Later, you threatened to build the Fukang Canal to strengthen the ability of the Jingshi to resist water, are you fooling people in this matter, or is it really true? ”

Wang Yan said: "This matter is now regarded as a joke by many of them, but I am not once or twice when the Yellow River floods, and the so-called taking history as a mirror, taking precautions, and making preparations within its ability is what the government should do." It's not a prophecy, it's my style of doing things. Of course, objectively speaking, I did observe some flood signals in Funing County last year, which are not too obvious, but I must have given signals from heaven and earth, and there must be a reason. ”

"So you still think there is a flood this year?" Cao Jidao.

Wang Yan didn't say dead: "Maybe, but no one listens to me now, I'm going to Bei 1 Beijing soon, but if it's me, it's still early in the rainy season, and I'll be ready for floods now." Even if people are superficial, when a monk has to hit the clock for at least one day, whether it is useful or not, this is another matter. ”

Cao Jizhen was frightened, thought for a while, and said: "Okay, anyway, now Fukangqu has nothing to do, and the additional team is idle, so it's good to take the opportunity to let them practice their skills and train their skills." Before the rainy season, I arranged for them to reset the facilities in the coal yard to increase the ability to defend against floods and droughts in the future. ”

……

Damn it can't be delayed any longer, I'm going to get out of the limelight.

Up to now, those landlords have shrunk back with the rhythm, but there are still a handful of Xiucai who don't know the truth gathered on the streets all day long, scolding Wang Yan when they caught him, and occasionally throwing vegetable leaves. Lao Bao said that it was food, not weapons.

Li Shizhong had already run away, and he went to Guangnan to tear up Wang Han in a hurry.

During this period, Wang Yan, who was stranded in the capital, was grounded at home, and was locked up by Wang Anshi and could not go out.

This is family law. It was Wang Anshi who was worried about Wang Yan's wild temperament, and was afraid that after he was scolded on the street, there would be a conflict and cause chaos.

So it's not interesting, since you can't go out, it's better to go to the Daimyo's Mansion to take up a post. Originally, Wang Yan wanted to keep it for the time being to see if it was possible to get diplomatic credit, after all, it seems that Li Liangzuo, the child of the Xixia bear, is really going to declare war on Tubo, and this is an opportunity for the Great Song Dynasty and Wang Yan to fish in troubled waters.

However, the rich man didn't give him a chance, he said, "Don't think that the Great Song Dynasty won't turn without you, and it's not only you who can do diplomacy, but also your previous convictions in Western Xia, and I decided not to hand over diplomatic matters to you."

So the road was blocked, and Han Qi couldn't help, because Han Qi didn't like diplomacy. If you want to ask him, Han Brain Shell will definitely say, "Take this opportunity to send troops to Qingtang or Western Xia, who can stab whomever you can in the eye."

So at the beginning of March, when the sun was shining and suitable for the road, Da Yan left Beijing with the cold men and horses.

There are only three Yang family generals who will follow the road, plus Dayan, a total of four people. There are no official ships to enjoy, so I took an ox cart to the Daimyo's mansion, the first important town in the north of the Great Song Dynasty, Bei 1 Jing.

There is no team available to go to the Daimyo Mansion this time, and Bai Yutang wants to resign from the Kaifeng Mansion to follow the Dayan.

But Da Yan pinched his fingers, and now she refuses to push it down, and there is no benefit for taking it with her, on the contrary, she is stared at to death by her eldest wife, and she will be caught kneeling on the washboard at every turn, it is better to be at ease alone. If she is not there, it is difficult to say that she can go to Huajie Willow Lane to act as a gentleman, hehe.

Zhan Zhao is lucky, if Da Yan has the final say, at that time, he had a command error in the battle to suppress bandits in Funing County, and he lost the lives of dozens of soldiers, and Da Yan advocated that he be demoted.

It's a pity that it's just the big demon king who thinks so, in fact, at that time, Zhan Zhao refused to retreat, and went deep into the enemy formation to cut off the heads of the three leaders, and the overall battle was won, as the deputy commander of the Funing Army, he naturally had merit, whether it was Lu Huiqing, Mu Guiying, Wang Anshi, Han Qi, they all thought that the big cat was a rare fierce general who should be promoted. So Zhanzhao's military rank was raised by one level.

In addition, Zhang Congxun was brought in by Dayan, and Zhanzhao, who is famous all over the world, has a chance, so now he has also changed his shotgun and become the deputy head of the Imperial City Division, not anyone's guard, but the close master of the Great Song Emperor, so he can't take Zhanzhao to the Daimyo's mansion.

To be fair, Zhan Zhao is very suitable for this position, with him in the Imperial City Division, it will be more standardized, and the royal and capital will be safer, but the person who can really do things must be Zhang Congxun, the No. 2 big yin person. The two worked together to form the balance that the emperor needed most, which was the imperial technique of the great Confucian Sun Fu.

There are so many enemies in the Great Bird, why do they need a guard. Since the victory at the mouth of the Yulin River, Mu Guiying has also been promoted to a level, and he is only one step away from the establishment of the festival, so after this time the big Yan came forward, Han Brain Shell agreed to put General Mu Guiying as the second general of the Tianwu Army, the commander of the North 1 Beijing Garrison Division, and the front division of the palace deployed in a compartment of the Daimyo Mansion, 25,000 forbidden troops, which belonged to Zhang Fangping's control.

In fact, this is in line with the rank of the eldest mother, it was really cold at the beginning, for the sake of faith, the eldest mother followed Wang Yan to the northwest, and only brought a few hundred soldiers. That's basically getting a lieutenant general to command a battalion.

In addition to the eldest lady herself, she selected two people from the Yang family's veteran trophies, who were her assistants.

plus the big goose, and a donkey, is the entire team of the daimyo on this trip.

Erya originally wanted to come, but the little Lori had really reached the age of studying, so Wang Yan arranged the little Lori to study in the primary school for the children of the coal yard.

The donkey Xiaobao is very obscene, wearing a tiger head hat and a neck bell around his neck, but he does not participate in pulling the cart, and runs and jumps next to him. If it weren't for the coachman's deviation, it is estimated that Xiaobao would have been kicked to death by the old cow pulling the cart.

In the animal world, there are also mocking faces and sneers, and now the donkey Xiaobao obviously has a sense of superiority over the old cow, and "shows off his wealth" and a mocking face around the old cow pulling the cart.

Da Yan was speechless about this, and muttered while sitting next to the veteran who was driving the car and watching the scenery along the way: "This donkey is useless, as my team, I didn't learn anything good, but I learned my bad things." ”

"Whew." Xiaobao the donkey turned around and barked at the big goose.

"Okay, okay, I don't want to care about you, just be happy."

To this day, the big crane doesn't like to quarrel with donkeys very much, so he can do whatever he wants. Twist with a donkey, and if you win, there's nothing to show off......
