Chapter 605 New Tax Code
Such a scene is definitely more beautiful than a meteor shower.
Compared to the fleeting meteor shower, fireworks exist longer and are more intensive.
What's more, Zhang Zhongqing also added the idea of the cloud-piercing arrow to the fireworks. Therefore, the fireworks that appear in the sky are colorful and very beautiful.
In the embellishment of countless fireworks, a sturdy horse ran in at the gate of Jiucheng Palace, and Li Shimin was on top of the horse, indescribably free and easy.
When the horse stopped in front of the queen, Leng Feng left here with his daughter-in-law and children.
Next, if the emperor wants to do anything, it is better to avoid it.
Nothing was said all night
Early the next morning, Leng Feng really saw the laughing queen.
Therefore, as long as a creature like a woman is coaxed, there is nothing bad about coaxing.
Li Shimin was also very proud, and asked Leng Feng, "If you are not in a hurry, you can stay for a few more days, and then go to Qinling for autumn hunting after the autumn harvest is almost over!" "TV debut
There are no ministers here in Jiucheng Palace, and Li Shimin also wants to try the queen's skill of cooking fish.
Anyway, all the civil and military officials are breaking corn and digging potatoes, even if he goes to another place to sneak around, no one cares about him.
In this way, Li Shimin spent three days in Jiucheng Palace before returning to Chang'an and Qinling with the queen.
This year's autumn hunt was as lively as usual, but Li Yuan did not come.
Although Li Yuan has kept exercising, his age is there after all, and after the autumn of this year, his leg hurts again, so he can only shrink in the greenhouse, urging the eunuch to die for heating.
Autumn hunting is actually a picnic activity of the imperial court, which doesn't mean much to Leng Feng.
After the autumn hunt, it was a long period of blandness, which was originally interrupted by the New Year, but with the introduction of the new tax law of the imperial court, the merchants of Chang'an were the first to fry the pot!
Originally, twelve taxes were changed to ten taxes and one, which is nothing, and the tax in kind was changed to a profit tax, which will kill them!
After all, they paid several times more taxes than before.
That's a lot of it!
Although this was not enough to move their capital, in the face of such a tax rate, the merchants were opposed.
After all, no one dislikes making more money.
But in the midst of the opposition, there are some voices of response.
First of all, the nobles, as part of the imperial court, no matter how the imperial court changes taxes, they must also be the first to respond. The second is some big merchants, who are the first to receive the gossip.
The fundamental reason why the imperial court did this was that it wanted to change the merchant to the position of the taxpayer, which would be helpful for improving the status of the merchant.
No businessman doesn't want his reputation to be better, so the charity hall downstairs can get a response from all parties every time it collects donations.
The actions of the imperial court this time were so great that the merchants always had to get together with their friends in private to talk about it.
Tianxia upstairs is naturally an excellent place to go, so no matter what time period, Tianxia upstairs is full. TV mobile terminal
In a small cubicle on the first floor, a group of businessmen gathered to talk about the incident.
"If you want me to say, as long as we keep opposing it, the court will definitely withdraw the new tax law."
"Against? How do you object? Beware of the cool officials giving you the name of 'rebellion', then you will be in danger! ”
"It's not enough to rebel, why shouldn't such a big crime be thrown on our heads"
After a long time, a businessman who had not spoken spoke up, "You just thought that the new tax law would collect more taxes, but have you ever thought about how much more money we have made by taking advantage of the tax loopholes during this time?" Besides, the imperial court established a bank, and the money saved will give us interest, even if it is interest money, it will be for nothing!
Even if there is too much tax, how much can it be? The interest of the bank will make up for part of it, and you must be content! ”
Hearing what the merchant said, everyone was stunned, if the bank interest is counted, it seems that they have recovered some of their losses. Thinking about it this way, why don't you resist it so much?
Seeing that the merchants stopped talking, the last merchant to speak breathed a sigh of relief. The task assigned by the big shopkeeper was to persuade others to accept the new tax law, and now he has completed the task
Talk of the new tax law gradually spread from Chang'an to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, but there were people interspersed with persuasion among merchants, and the forces of resistance dissipated before they could take shape.
The imperial court stipulates that from next year, it will be implemented, so they can enjoy low taxes for about two months.
Fang Xuanling proposed the release of the new tax law, and he felt that instead of changing the main body of taxation from the beginning, it was better to collect both sides first, and then reduce or reduce the peasants' taxes after it was determined that the commercial tax could indeed support the operation of the state.
This is a very safe approach, so a few years ago, the imperial court released a new tax law.
When the craze brought about by the new tax law subsided, the first snow of winter fell in Chang'an.
The snow began to fall at noon, and when Leng Feng stepped on the ankle-high snow and returned home, the snow still had no intention of stopping.
With such a big snowfall, it will definitely not melt for a while, so Leng Feng is very happy to decide to strike tomorrow!
It's not just that the military department doesn't have anything to deal with, and it's not just because the snow road is slippery, the main reason is that Leng Jing and Leng Yuewu want their father to build a big snowman with them.
The request of the son girl, when Lao Tzu naturally agreed, so the next morning, Leng Feng took five children wrapped in cotton balls to build a snowman and play together.
After piling up a snowman, Leng Feng asked Wu Mei, "Aren't you going to help your senior brother?" How did you come back again? ”
It's hard for Wu Mei to make up her mind, but isn't this time a three-year cycle?
Wu Mei stuck a shovel into the snowman as one of its arms, and was silent for a long time before she said, "Master, I miss my mother and sister, it's winter now, and I don't know how they are doing on the grassland." ”
The grasslands in winter are the hardest, and it is not uncommon for Wu Mei to worry about them.
Leng Feng patted her on the shoulder, "Don't worry, our ranch environment is very good, and they won't worry about freezing and starving." If you miss them, I'll find a shadow guard to escort you to the grassland when spring begins. ”
Wu Mei nodded, happily going to build a snowman.
After Wu Mei left, Di Renjie rushed to Leng Feng's side and said, "Master, Lao Yuan wrote to say that the merchant group did not resist the new tax law very much, and I always felt that Fang Xiang was a little worried!" ”
Leng Feng smiled: "Worrying about the sky? No, boy, you still underestimate you Those guys in the court, it is their instinct to keep one hand in doing things, and it is their habit to leave a way out when they move forward, only by learning these two things can they say that they are almost invincible. The same is true for people, leaving a way out for yourself is the most correct way! ”
