Chapter 658: The Shameless Pseudo-Tang Official (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Owner, we have already read this business law in detail, this business law is different from what we expected before, there is no restriction on doing business, if it is engaged in maritime trade and industry, it will be encouraged."

"It can't be said that there is no limit, now if you want to engage in business, you need to go to the official yamen to register, and you can only engage in some related industries after the establishment of the company, but the small one has already inquired, the registration fee is very low, and there is no need to pay any additional taxes!"

"Regardless of other industries, what is the regulation of maritime trade?"

A shopkeeper said: "Now the government stipulates that if you want to engage in maritime trade, you need to register first, and then the government will issue a business license, this license does not need to pay any additional fees, as long as you can submit a certificate of sufficient strength, you can get this maritime trade license, with this maritime trade license, our fleet will be able to enter and exit the two treaty ports of Guangzhou and Lianzhou without obstacles!" ”

"In this case, it won't change much from the past!"

When the people below said this, Wang Huayun, the head of the Wang family, was also pondering, their Wang family is a standard gentry family, the family prides itself on being a scholarly family, and there are many scholars in the family, he Wang Huayun himself is a Ming Dynasty man, and his young son is also a talent in the Ming Dynasty, with thousands of acres of land.

At the same time, the Wang family also owns a large number of shops and an offshore fleet.

In other words, the Wang family was actually still a maritime merchant, with five large sea ships under his command, coming and going to various parts of the South Seas.

After the rise of the puppet Tang Dynasty, he captured Guangzhou, and the Wang family naturally carried out risk dilution, and his eldest son was already sent to Jiangnan by him, and at the same time took away some of his clansmen and a large amount of money to buy land in Jiangnan.

However, he himself stayed in Guangzhou to continue to sit in Guangzhou, after all, the foundation of his Wang family was in Guangzhou, and if he left Guangzhou, his Wang family's assets would be able to shrink in an instant.

Fortunately, after the puppet Tang Dynasty thief army conquered Guangzhou, they did not embarrass the gentry in the city, as long as the gentry like Wang Wenhua honestly do business and pay taxes, then they will not be threatened too much, but at first they felt that the taxes of the Tang Dynasty were more, not only the acres of land had to pay all the taxes, but the commercial taxes were also extremely heavy.

But after paying the taxes, the Wang family found that they were engaged in business under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, and their profits were not only less than before, but also increased a lot.

Because although the taxes are paid more, there is no need to go around in order to win over the relationship, and there is no messy harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the Tang Dynasty opened up the sea trade, not only did it not prohibit the sea trade, but strongly supported it.

In this way, in the past six months, the Wang family's firm has been making money every day!

Now, the Wang family is also preparing to do a big job, even two new ships have been ordered, and even in order to raise funds for the purchase of goods, even the original fields of the family have been sold.

Anyway, now these fields have to pay taxes, and there is not much production, and the income from the land is nothing compared to the sea trade.

The Wang family, who is ready to make a big move, is naturally extremely concerned about the new owner of the current Guangzhou Mansion and the policy trends of the Tang Dynasty towards commercial affairs.

As soon as the Datang Commercial Law was issued, they directly copied a copy and then studied it.

After reading it, although I feel that there are many restrictions on doing business in the future, as long as I have handled various licensing documents and paid taxes according to the regulations, it is even more convenient than before.

As for paying taxes, don't say that this commercial law has come out, even if it doesn't come out, the Wang family doesn't have the courage to evade taxes!

In the past year, he, Wang Huayun, has seen too many people who want to evade taxes and end up being exterminated!

Under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, there are two things that cannot be done, the first is rebellion, and the second is tax evasion!

For ordinary people, rebellion has nothing to do with them, so relatively speaking, tax evasion has more to do with them, and they feel it more deeply.

Therefore, to a certain extent, under the rule of Datang, there is only one thing that cannot be done: tax evasion!

The tax inspection team of the Tang Dynasty is not easy to provoke, let them catch the handle of tax evasion, it is not just a fine, but a ruined family.

In the past, everyone said that the county order of the family was raided, and the prefect of the extermination of the clan, but now?

Those who raided their homes and exterminated their families were all tax inspection teams!

Of course, even with such a strict tax system, there are people who will take risks and want to evade taxes, and the tax inspection team is not merciless in this regard, and it is found that they are raiding their homes together.

The Wang family, they made a lot of money by taking the right path, and he, Wang Huayun, was cautious, so naturally he would not do these things.

Now the sky in Guangzhou is different, there is no such thing as being able to reap many benefits by directly hitting the dots up and down, the biggest possibility is that the money you send out to get some money, those who are officials will receive it, but as soon as you turn around, they will turn their faces with you, and then raid the family and exterminate the clan.

In the words of many gentry, it is: these pseudo-Tang officials, shameless!

The front foot accepts bribes, and the back foot will raid the house, this is the trend brought up by the tax inspection team, and later Li Xuan simply gave an informal dictation: But all officials who accept bribes, if they take the initiative to report, only half of the bribes need to be handed over to the state treasury, and the remaining half can be used as the legitimate income of officials.

Therefore, for the officials of the Tang Dynasty, if he Wang Huayun sent them 10,000 taels of silver, they would happily accept it, and then take the initiative to report it, and wipe out Wang Huayun's family, 5,000 taels of silver will instantly become the legal income recognized by the imperial court, and at the same time, they can also make a great contribution, this kind of good thing can be found there!

This means that in the Tang Dynasty, as long as the bribery income of officials is actively reported, it is legal income!

Therefore, the current officials of the Tang Dynasty wish that some officials would come to bribe them, so that they can be promoted and make a fortune with one stone!

It's a pity that there were a lot of stupid wrongdoers before, but now there are few of them, Wang Huayun is naturally not stupid, he would rather pay heavy taxes than bribe those damn pseudo-Tang officials.

Now Wang Huayun hopes to do business honestly, taking advantage of the current Tang Dynasty to open the sea ban and support commerce, buy a few more sea ships, and then make a few more trips to the South Seas to earn more silver.

After all, no one knows whether the policy of the Tang Dynasty will be in the future, and how long the Tang Dynasty will be able to last, and when it will be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, so Wang Huayun hopes to take advantage of this time to make a wave, as for the future, even if the policy has changed, the Tang Dynasty has perished, but the money earned in his pocket is still his royal family.

Immediately, he said to the shopkeepers below: "You will discuss it in detail, and then go to the government to register, and you must get the maritime trade license!" ”

The shopkeepers below should naturally claim to be!

Soon, the commercial bank under the Wang family was officially registered and successfully obtained the maritime trade license.

And according to the articles of association of Datang Commercial Law, the formation of a new 'Wang's Sea Trade Firm', there is no change in the title, the actual structure is also unchanged, just submit some information and registration, the registration is quite smooth, before and after an hour of time to do all the work.

For a large commercial bank such as Wang's Commercial Bank, the actual impact of the issuance of Datang Commercial Law is not great, but it is just that the future business practice is more standardized, and for small and medium-sized businessmen, the actual impact of Datang Commercial Law is even greater.

In the past, small traders did not need to register, but now, you even need to register and get a license to set up a stall on the street.

As long as there is a fixed registered address, a legal representative is sufficient.

There are basically no restrictions!

The emergence of Datang's commercial law has regulated the order of industry and commerce in Datang to a certain extent, and guided their development.

Especially the industries supported by the Tang Dynasty are green lights all the way!

What is industry, that is, manufacturing, regardless of whether you are a small workshop or a large workshop, as long as you are willing to do it, then there are many preferential policies, if the products you produce can still be exported or can provide a large number of jobs, then you can enjoy tax incentives.

And tax incentives are quite important in today's Tang Dynasty, because the Tang Dynasty taxes are heavy, and tax evasion is a felony, and the official gives certain tax incentives, but it will attract a large number of people to engage in industry.

And it is also a small scale to appear and people like Wang Huayun, through the sale of land to collect funds, and invest the funds in industry and commerce.

Because now the Tang Dynasty implements the integrated taxation of the gentry, and the tax is paid as much as there is land, and those who dare to underreport and omit to report will directly copy the house!

And to be honest, the production of the fields is not much, how can it be cost-effective to do business!

However, this phenomenon is only a small scale, and it has not caused much of a trend, after all, for the Chinese people, land is still very important, and Wang Huayun is optimistic about sea trade, and even does not hesitate to sell land to raise funds to engage in business.

But in any case, since April of the third year of Xuanping, the industry and commerce of the Tang Dynasty, especially the two officially supported industries of maritime trade and manufacturing, have developed rapidly.

The Ministry of Commerce optimistically estimates that by the end of the year, excluding the state-owned enterprises under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry, the capital scale of private enterprises will more than double, and at the same time, it will provide a large number of jobs for society and a large amount of tax revenue for the treasury.

The Tang Dynasty encouraged industry and commerce and even maritime trade, and this matter even affected the small countries in the South Seas, as well as the Francos and Spaniards!
