"Tiered taxation? Qin Forget, what are you doing with this kid? Chen Liang now felt that Qin Forget was really out of the ordinary, and the deviant ideas were one after another, so that people didn't know what he was thinking.

"What does the graded tax mean, the grass people explain it clearly to the father-in-law, and then the grass people explain such benefits to the father-in-law." Qin forgot to take a sip of tea and organize the language.

"Father-in-law, the tea and horse market is the tea and horse market of our imperial court, not the tea and horse market of any family, let alone the tea and horse market of merchants from other countries. Why do you let these families and businessmen from other countries make a lot of money, our Great Yan Kingdom, our Majesty can only collect not a lot of taxes? As long as the tax is collected at different levels, we Dayan will reap several times more taxes than expected. ”

Qin Wang's words reached Chen Liang's heart, making him feel a sense of hatred for the enemy.

Qin Forget made it clear to Chen Liang about the benefits of graded taxation.

"Really? If we really use this Rausch sub-grading tax, can we really collect so much more taxes? Can you give such a big blow to those big families? Listening to Qin Wang's careful explanation of the benefits of graded taxation, Chen Liang's entire face lit up, and he asked Qin Wangdao with heavy breathing.

Seeing Chen Liang's reaction, Qin Forget smiled secretly in his heart, "Relatively speaking, just raising the tax ratio has too many disadvantages. A large increase in the tax ratio will offend all businessmen in the world, and the key is that it is just an itch for big businessmen like the five major families, but it is a fatal blow to those small and medium-sized businessmen. In the long run, those big families will only get bigger and bigger, and the tail will not be lost. However, if the tax is collected by grade, the blow to the big families and big businessmen will be fatal, and small and medium-sized businessmen will only applaud. And our Dayan has won the support of a large number of small and medium-sized businessmen, and we have to face a few big businessmen. Those big businessmen have no way to refuse our system, anyway, the tea and horse market is controlled by us, no matter how angry they are, they can't turn the sky upside down. Even if they boycott the tea and horse market, don't we still have those small and medium-sized businessmen? As long as this system can be implemented smoothly, the more the wealthy family earns, the more taxes they will pay, but the average businessman only needs to pay a small amount of taxes, and the strength of the wealthy family is weakened a little bit, and the strength of those ordinary businessmen is strengthened a little bit. Under the trade-off, maybe in a few decades, there will be no more wealthy families in the world. When ordinary businessmen grow into big businessmen, they have to accept high taxes. In this cycle, our Dayan businessmen will not appear as large-scale businessmen as the five major families today, and they will all become medium businessmen. Qin Forget told Chen Liang what Jincheng meant again.

"There is no more family in the world? The idea really makes such a big difference. Chen Liang stood up with a "pout" and said excitedly.

He couldn't help but be excited, the Great Yan Dynasty has always been controlled by the family, and he knows Emperor Cao Zi too well

Wenduo wanted to sweep away these families.

"Even if they can't be uprooted, but if their financial resources are cut off, what can they do to compete with the imperial court? Let's not have too much Dayan, as long as we harvest tens of millions of taels of silver from the tea and horse market every year, it won't take a few years, I don't dare to say that the four kingdoms are dominant, but it is not difficult to destroy the Jin State and contend with the Qi State. Qin Wang's voice was full of demagogy.

Chen Liang went back and forth in circles, carefully thinking about the pros and cons of this idea, and after thinking about it for a long time, he always felt that the advantages were much greater than the disadvantages.

"Okay, Qin Forget, our family will take care of this matter and report it to Your Majesty on your behalf." Chen Liang slapped him hard and finally made up his mind.

"Father-in-law is wise." Qin Forget sent a sycophant at the right time.

"Don't make a fool of yourself, Qin Wang, do you know how big this matter is?" Chen Liang reprimanded Qin Wang, "This not only involves those merchants, but also the major families behind them, and its influence is no less than changing the world." Since ancient times, those who have been the main reformers have not ended well, and you should know the final fate of the former Qin Shang Ying, the five horses are divided. To put it mildly, if this move causes a joint backlash from the major families, and even His Majesty can't bear it, he can only use you, the one who came up with the idea, to take the cylinder. ”

Speaking of this, a look of worry and pity actually appeared on Chen Liang's face.

"Thank you father-in-law for your protection, didn't my father-in-law ask the grass people what loyalty is? In the hearts of the grass people, loyalty is to do our best to make our country prosperous and strong, so that my Dayan will no longer be bullied by any country, and even expand the territory and help His Majesty the Emperor establish immortal feats! As for the life and death of the grass people, the grass people don't care, besides, the grass people have long been inseparable from those families, and it is not bad this time. ”

"Okay, Qin Wang, our family has always thought that you were a disloyal and unfilial person, but your recent performance has made our family ashamed. First of all, there were 7,000 war horses, and then a few pieces of horse breeding land, and finally gave the court such a good idea, so it is a big deal, Qin Wang, you are very good, our family remembers! Chen Liang said with emotion.

At this point, Qin Forget has gained Chen Liang's absolute trust.

It was nearly July, and Chicheng and Ye County were lively all at once.

Countless merchants from all over the world gathered in Akagi, and with them came countless goods of all kinds. In particular, the fleets of the five major families came from Xinzhou in batches, and each batch was transported in tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of stones, and Akagi was completely boiling.

Tea, silk, porcelain, cloth, farm tools, ironware, and other goods were piled up around Chicheng and Yexian, and preliminary estimates put these goods in the millions of stones. As long as there is vacant land in the two prefectures of Akagi, they are full of goods. From a distance, the mountains of goods make the two counties look like a huge wholesale market.

Now these businessmen are in a hurry, and there are so many reasons

There is really nowhere to put the goods. Along the Chaobai River, there are hundreds of huge warehouses, and when these merchants inquired, they learned that these warehouses were originally owned by the Chicheng County Government, and if they wanted to use them, they had to pay high rents. Depending on the value of the goods, the rent of 100 miles tax is prohibitive for many people. Come to think of it, there is still more than a month before the opening of the tea horse market, and the goods worth one million are ten thousand taels a month, which is indeed extremely expensive, and not all merchants can afford it.

However, those who can't afford the rent are only those small and medium-sized businessmen, and big families like Jinjia Shiwang Xue don't care. The hundred-mile tax is indeed a lot, but it is nothing compared to the value of their goods. What's more, they often have hundreds of thousands of stone goods, and if they don't enter those warehouses, there is indeed nowhere to put them. Therefore, those large warehouses are almost all used by the five major families.

The mid-level merchants had to focus their gaze on the farther part of Akagi. After paying a lot of rent, they bought the timber they had hoarded in Akagi and hired laborers to build their own warehouses, which brought a lot of income to the Akagi Prefecture government. Most critically, they have further increased the demand for labor.

There was also an accident here, that is, the fifty merchants in the Chicheng Chamber of Commerce, they transported the goods to Chicheng, claiming that Qin Forget had bought the goods outside, but in fact it was just an excuse for them to cover up people's eyes. Whether it was the toll tax or the rent of the warehouse, they didn't have to pay a penny, because they had caught the line of Qin Wang, and before the mutual market began, they had established a huge price advantage. Most importantly, they were the first to sell their goods.

The gathering of merchants naturally attracted countless people. In the past month, thousands of young people have come to Akagi every day to beg for a living. These people have no capital, no shelter, only strength. Akagi's rough work and heavy work were contracted by these people. In Akagi, as long as you are willing to work, you don't have to worry about not working. As soon as these young men arrived in Akagi, they were robbed by those merchants.

Not only that, the Chicheng County Ya is also recruiting people on a large scale, since a month ago, a large number of workers were sent to Helin by Qin Wang, several major construction sites in Chicheng County, once again there is a labor shortage of more than 100,000 people. The demand for labor is also great. Moreover, after Akagi had a large amount of cash in the account, these laborers could receive wages every day, thirty wen a day, although it was not as high as the price offered by the merchants, but the advantage was that the construction period was long, and there was no need to look for jobs frequently, which still attracted most of the laborers.

As soon as the big boats reach the mouth of the Yellow River, they can't get in, so they can only change to small boats, and these small boats can't move at all without a slender man pulling fiber on the shore. Tens of thousands of jobs have been created again. On both sides of the Chaobai River, countless slender men lined up in two rows along almost the entire river section, transporting countless boats and countless supplies to Chicheng.
