Chapter 629: It's Clear

Sun Xiangfu has high expectations for Li Shimin, he hopes that Li Shimin can redefine the monarch and define the imperial power, as for what plans are planned, of course, Li Shimin thinks too much, and governing the country cannot rely on strategy alone.

"Your Majesty, the strategy can only be planned for a while, if you want to maintain the stable development of the country for a long time, you must rely on a complete and feasible system, so from the beginning to the end, the problem that needs to be solved is to establish a complete management system and resolutely implement these management systems.

In the past few days, the villagers who have come out of the village have told me that many old and sick people have come to Gangneung City to petition the Yamen Mansion, and they also hope to enjoy free medical care, pension, education and other benefits, how do you plan to solve it? ”

"I haven't thought about it yet, but I can't leave it alone! After all, they are all people who have a difficult life under my rule. ”

Sun Xiangfu was silent for a while before he said, "The grass people suggest that you only take care of it symbolically at most, explain things to them clearly, send them some food and living necessities, and return them to their hometowns."

As for the costs incurred in doing these works, those who instigated them should also be allowed to come out, and they should be punished in a certain amount of public.

As for the policy, you can't make the slightest concession to them because those people are old and weak, if you compromise this time, next time, if the people have any needs, they will still use this way to make trouble with you, and if there are more times, it will become a norm, and then after that, there may be no peace. ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin also pondered for a long time and did not speak, as a perennial ruler of this country, he naturally knows how to manage the people, but, in recent years, he has been accustomed to appearing in front of the people with an image of a benevolent Mingjun, and naturally hopes that he can continue to maintain this image in the hearts of the people, and to help the people solve these problems, his image of Mingjun is even more lofty.

"I have seen the details of the financial expenditure of the Jiuyuan Chamber of Commerce, the expenses for medical care, pension and education that they spend for the people are almost 30,000 guan per month, calculated in terms of population ratio, our Datang now has a population of more than 33 million, and it will consume almost 10 million guan every month, and it is 120 million guan a year, do you think that in the next three years, is it possible for our Datang's finance and taxation to exceed 120 million guan?"

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu shook his head very definitely and said, "Absolutely impossible, don't think that the finance and taxes in the past few years are doubling and rising, it will continue to grow like this, when the volume is large to a certain extent, the growth rate will definitely slow down, if it can break through 40 million this year, and it can reach about 50 million next year, it is already an excellent situation."

Moreover, the reason why the people of Jiuyuan County only consume about 30,000 guan per month in these three aspects is because their own output is large and they rely less on policies, and these 30,000 guan expenditure is mainly used for tens of thousands of children's books, study, food and the salaries of hundreds of teachers, and in other aspects, the cost of medical care and pension is very small.

Here, not to mention the 45-year-old, people who have reached the required retirement age, even some old people in their 50s who feel that they are in good health, are still working and resolutely refusing to eat for nothing.

Their thinking is already different from that of people in other places, and with a more reasonable distribution of working hours and adequate food and nutritional supplements, they are relatively less likely to fall ill.

And if the imperial court wants to promote such welfare in other places, the same population size, the expenditure will definitely be more than that, unless it takes about three years to fully replicate all the matters of education and all aspects of the system in Jiuyuan County.

As for the fiscal and tax issues you just mentioned in three years, I think the calculation is very inaccurate, with the current population growth rate, we Datang will be able to have at least more than 2 million newborns in three years, and when the overall calculation is overall, there will be no annual expenditure of more than 150 million yuan, and it will definitely not be able to take all the welfare and security projects.

Because, it is impossible for the imperial court's tax revenue to reach this amount, and it is impossible for all the taxes to be used for these welfare projects, and the state still has a lot of large infrastructure construction that needs to be invested, so if you want to rely on the state finance to realize these benefits for the people, let alone three years, you can't do it in thirty years. ”

The expenses of Jiuyuan County are not bad in terms of pension, but they are only a minority group, and they receive some money and food expenses on a fixed basis.

The cost of medicine and reading is the big head, especially in terms of medical drugs, due to a variety of commonly used medicinal materials, the farm is still in the stage of groping and planting, and has not formed a large-scale output, and the amount is small, which will inevitably lead to high prices, from the medicine collected in the mountains, the transportation of its Tiannan and Haibei to Shanyang Pharmaceutical Factory, and then according to the multiple processes to produce Chinese patent medicine, which requires the cost of manpower and material resources is very high, when it comes to the hands of the people, the price will not be as cheap as ordinary food, usually worth tens of hundreds of Wen, A little precious and rare, and even a coherent count.

Even in later generations, there are not many countries that can rely on national finance to provide free medical care, education, and pension for the whole people, not to mention that in this era of low productivity, Li Shimin has come to his senses after Sun Xiangfu calculated this account.

"What do you mean, the finances of the imperial court cannot afford it, so it can only be promoted by relying on local commercial profits like Jiuyuan County?"

Sun Xiangfu did not deny it, and said, "The finance and taxation of the imperial court will be mainly based on industry and commerce in the future, as far as the current point of view, the proportion of thirty taxes is extremely low, with the average profit value of all commodities in our Datang, about three to forty percent, businessmen, the annual profit in commerce, can reach almost ten times the national commercial tax, with the current 20 million yuan of commercial tax calculation, almost more than 200 million, such a profit, but can afford to implement this set of welfare system nationwide, However, it is somewhat difficult to let all the people who do business take out more than half of their profits and contribute them to the people. ”

"You mean, because we can't let everyone contribute more than half of their profits for nothing, so there's no way to do it at the moment?"

"Sort of!"

"So, can an additional business tax solve this problem?" Li Shimin asked tentatively.

Sun Xiangfu replied without thinking about it, "No, history has long told us that the heavier the taxes levied by the state, the worse the economy, the reason why our Datang's business can flourish is because of the low taxes, so that goods, money, have more circulation and rolling in the market, which has led to the increase of finance and taxation, and the increase in commercial taxes will not only not solve this problem, but will make the development of private commerce more slow." ”

"Since you have seen these problems so clearly, there must be a solution!" Li Shimin touched the beard on his chin and said,

Sun Xiangfu shook his head and said, "In any case, this needs to go through a slow process, just like the construction of the new countryside, it is impossible to do it in one step, Jiuyuan County, it can be said that we took the lead in setting up a template, this template, at present, can roughly solve the problem of more than a dozen counties of similar size, hundreds of thousands of people, if, want to promote such welfare projects in more places, in a wider range, you need more different types of projects to support, I think, those people, The reason for such a big move is to seize the power of these development projects into his own hands.

Think about it, if the whole country realizes these welfare projects like Jiuyuan County, and the people provide these benefits, but these organizations such as the Jiuyuan Chamber of Commerce are mainly developed by the family consortium, what kind of picture will it look like? ”

was said by Sun Xiangfu, Li Shimin couldn't think of the place before, the whole thing was transparent, the sons of the family, it turned out, wanted to transform through such means and complete the layout of the future.

"So, how do we deal with it?"

"I've already told you before, set up a regulatory system!

Including organizations like the Jiuyuan Chamber of Commerce, which have begun to operate, the imperial court must set up an effective management system to follow up, which can allow it to have a certain degree of financial freedom, but it must accept the overall control of the imperial court and cannot confront the imperial court.

For example, after the previous state-owned enterprises used local resources and the output of people's labor to create economic value, the imperial court could not simply hand over all the profits obtained to the national treasury, or even be used for other purposes, but should pay taxes according to the tax rate of the imperial court, and keep the remaining part for the livelihood of the local people.

The imperial court can set up a social security outlet in the household department, and stipulate that a large part of the income will be allocated to a special fund account in proportion to the non-governmental commercial organizations that want to cooperate with the imperial court in developing resource projects, and the funds in this account can cover 30% of the expenses of medical care, pension, and education for the people under their rule, then the people need to pay 70% of their own expenses.

The funds in this account can cover 50% of the welfare project expenses of the people under their rule, so the people only need to pay 50% of their own welfare benefits to enjoy these welfare benefits.

If the funds in the account can be as much as Jiuyuan County, and can fully cover the expenses of various welfare projects for the people under their rule, then the people will enjoy these welfare benefits for free. ”

Listening to Sun Xiangfu's suggestion, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up, his idea is equivalent to handing over the welfare of the people to the people themselves, the imperial court sets up regulations, is responsible for supervision, and the people who invest in development projects have two kinds of relationships with the local people, that is, the relationship of cooperative production, and the relationship of mutual supervision, because if these people can't really help the people develop projects and obtain a certain degree of welfare security, the people will not agree, and the people who invest in development projects want to make a profit. It also needs the people to really produce enough.

Of course, this is just a simple idea of Sun Xiangfu, and how to turn it into a practical system still needs to be studied and verified.

In later generations of enterprises, but all require employees to buy social insurance, medical insurance and other items, and, when the enterprise has achieved a certain level, the secretary, the chairman of the trade union and the like, will be sent to you, listed companies at all levels, basically by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission at all levels of the main holdings, this characteristic socialist road, has been proven, is successful, Sun Xiangfu Li Shimin to this road to lead, let him apply to the present, what extent can it be done, it needs him to study according to the current social situation.

After talking about this issue thoroughly, Sun Xiangfu proposed to Li Shimin a lot of routines that had basically been used in later generations, and taught him to formulate rules, and Li Shimin, who had learned the routines, did not stay for a moment, and did not chat with the two brothers Li Tai and Li Ke, who had been paying attention to this side for a long time and wanted to come over to visit, and left directly.

Therefore, when Li Tai and Li Ke asked Sun Xiangfu afterwards what Li Shimin said when he came here, Sun Xiangfu just told them that he was here to let them farm here with peace of mind.

This seemingly simple answer made them think a lot in their hearts, especially Li Tai, in his opinion, Li Shimin's attitude towards him has been very clear, in his life, there should really be no hope of winning the Ninth Five-Year Plan, which makes him gradually accept the reality and settle down to study more.

Li Ke felt that Li Shimin was weak with himself in terms of family affection, or in other words, with all the princes and princesses except for the crown prince Li Chengqian, which made him even more indifferent to this father, and now he just wants to hurry up to the age of sixteen, go to the local domain, and live his own life.

Two days later, in front of the Gangneung City, Shannan Provincial Governor's Mansion, thousands of old and sick people from all over the country crowded the surrounding neighborhoods, of course, including more than 10,000 local people who came to see the excitement.

"Eldest grandson, you are unfair! The people of Jiuyuan County, Jinan County, and Zhongxiang County, every family has a big house, a good field, and a rich flow of oil, why does the imperial court still help them so much and give them such good treatment, but instead turn a blind eye to those of us who are incapable of farming and are riddled with evil diseases all year round, what is the reason? In the crowd, an old man over sixty years old with white hair, stomped on his crutches and asked loudly to the eldest grandson Wuji. ()
