Chapter 107: The New Deal Storm (1)

Soon after, the prince and Fang Boliu Lake returned from enjoying the scenery, and then the news came that the king of Xian had sealed the Chan Fang Bo Yin Yangjun.

"Niece, he Xianwang ate the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and he only gave it to an empty city, so it is unreasonable to play you and me like this."

Fang Bo was angry and spun in place, and he kept eating the mandarin orange in his mouth, very anxious. δΈ‹εˆ»θ₯Ώε―° says:

"This matter is strange, Sun Guan is immoral and incompetent, and the Queen Mother recommended him to serve as the political envoy. In order to prevent my father from being angry with King Xian, King Xian was able to think of giving Yin Yangcheng to his uncle, so that my father could not say anything. ”

"Well, what's the use of saying that at this time. The niece of the political envoy, you said okay, he Jiang Hai backtracked, and he was too deceitful. ”

"Uncle!" Xihuan was unhappy, and blamed him: "Do you think that the political envoy of Dasi Nongxia is his own Taicang, and if he says that he will move the land, this is the lifeblood of the salty people, can the salty people easily loosen their mouths." ”

"But how is that?"

"Since King Xian is his uncle Yin Yangjun, you will be this Yin Yangjun."

"But it's an empty city, isn't it clearly deceiving?"

Fang Bo was not happy, but Xihuan disagreed:

"What's the hurry, Yin Yangcheng is located in the important area of land and water, since King Xian opened a port here, he must be worried that Zhiguo will suddenly attack, and the naval army will go down the river to seize Jiangdong. If it is given to my uncle, this place will be an important town for my Jin Kingdom, and Xianguo can send troops south to defend against Zhiguo. ”

"Now Xianguo is my state, and it still depends on the owner to beat the dog, and Zhiguo does not weigh it."

"Uncle!" Xihuan's face sank, and she said: "All the elites of the northern army have been transferred to Qiguo, and there are only 100,000 soldiers guarding the north and Jiangdong. ”

"If there is no eldest grandson country, how can the alliance of the three kingdoms let Zhiguo succeed."

Xihuan had a lot of hatred for iron and steel at this time, if it weren't for his mother's greed for his mother's wealth, he wouldn't have been able to send Uncle Fang, a straw bag uncle, to Xianguo to be an official.

Uncle Fang has no city government, only profit in his eyes, Xihuan originally planned to put him in the post of political envoy, King Xian and Prime Minister Gongsun Yue thought that Uncle Fang did not have a city government, and he was Xihuan's uncle, so it was reasonable and reasonable, and King Xian's bottom line would most likely be loosened. But she didn't want to be counter-tricked by King Xian, so that she couldn't do anything.

Thinking of this, Xihuan said:

"Uncle, this matter has been completed, and Yin Yangjun, the uncle of King Xian, just doesn't want you and me to get involved in the cabinet and the treasury, but this matter can't stop here."

"That's right, niece, King Xian sealed an empty city, how can I swallow this breath, isn't this smearing on your father's face."

Uncle Fang said this heartlessly, Xihuan's face immediately turned dark, his eyes widened, and the look of displeasure jumped on his face. Fang Bomeng realized that he had lost his words, and immediately shrunk his neck as if he was wilted.

"Uncle, one day you go to Qinle Fang to buy two top female music, and then go to see the doctor Wang He's mansion, and tell him to let him play "Pushing Business Tax"."

""Push Business Tax"? What is the business tax? Uncle Fang asked.

Xihuan glared at Uncle Fang again, but he was angry:

"Uncle doesn't bother with this matter, uncle just does it."

"Okay, I'll go to Qinle Fang."

Qin Le Fang is a famous music workshop in Xiandu Chenling, and Qiguo Music Workshop is called the world's "two strings", and is known as the world's famous music. The doctor Wang He was lustful, and he had 12 concubines, and he did not have an official position, but he was a close relative of the queen mother's family and was deeply appreciated by the queen mother.

"Pushing Business Tax" is a new policy that Gongsun Yue has pondered in recent years, and at present, only a few people such as King Xian and the cabinet know the inside story, and it is said that Xihuan should not know. Of course, the word "supposedly" is a theoretical word, and in fact, Xihuan has long been insightful.

The purpose of the "Push for Business Tax" is another important change implemented after Gongsun Yue's "Agricultural Mulberry Order", which aims to adjust the tax rate on textiles, commerce, workshops and other industries and commerce, and levy a "deposit and profit" tax on merchants.

The so-called surplus tax is a tax on individuals who have accumulated more wealth in their families, and the scope of the deposit tax includes coins, precious metals, and hoarding.

If a leather dealer hoards leather and does not trade it normally, but hoards it and waits for the price, it will be subject to a surplus tax. If you have a lot of money at home, but you stay at home and do not participate in circulation, nor do you use it to invest in entrepreneurship or provide jobs, you will also be subject to a deposit and profit tax.

Because Gongsun Yue exposed many shortcomings in the process of implementing the "Nongsang Order" in his early years, and at the same time minted a large amount of money, resulting in a large amount of coins in the hands of merchants, which seriously damaged the income of the people at the bottom and the treasury, so the "Push Business Tax" was introduced to crack down on illegal businessmen.

This reform measure is extremely controversial in the DPRK, and Dasi Nong Mo Anzheng is the most opposed.

At present, Xihuan is actively promoting the implementation of the "Promoting Commercial Tax" in Xianguo, and it is obvious that he is still haunted after missing the post of secretary and counselor.

So two days later, Uncle Fang bought two female musicians from Qinle Fang and went to the mansion of the doctor Wang He in person, not so much about "Pushing Business Tax". The next day, Wang He entered the palace to meet the Queen Mother and lobbied the Queen Mother for advocating the "Push Business Tax".

A few days later, in Yicaotang, west of the city, Bailiyan was seeing a doctor, and a donkey suddenly came outside the door, and the person riding the donkey was a young man in a yellow shirt of twenty-five or six, with an anxious face, and the young man jumped off the donkey and went straight to the hall and shouted:

"Wei Xian, Wei Xian!"

Bai Liyan looked up and saw that it was Zhao Xun's doorman Gao Xun. Bai Liyan finished prescribing the prescription at hand and sent the patient to find Xiao Er to grab the medicine.

"Senior brother, why are you so anxious?"

"Brother Wei Xian, you haven't heard of it yet."

"What the hell is going on?"

"The king is determined to implement the "Push Business Tax" this morning, and even the text has been posted at the entrance of the vegetable market and at the city gates."

""Push Business Tax"? Didn't you say that you would discuss it again, and the new deal was pushed so quickly. ”

"No, Lord Zhao has already gone to find Ding Su, I'm afraid that it will be a wave of unsettled waves."

"It's strange, didn't the king take the advice of the great Si Nong Mo Anzheng?"

"According to your lordship, the king has rejected the book of the Great Si Nong, and the other cabinets naturally can't say much."

Bai Liyan had heard of "Pushing Business Tax" before, but he didn't know the specific policy content, but he heard that he would severely crack down on businessmen who had a lot of private wealth and hoarded strange things. However, it has not been clear to the outside world what the implementation method is and the fine grass, and it is still Xiangguo Gongsun Yue who takes the lead in "Pushing Business Tax".

If, as previously stated, taxes were to be levied on individuals with more private wealth and merchants who maliciously speculated, the bread here did not include the princes and nobles and the noble and noble classes, or was it only a specific pair of symbolic taxes for merchants of all walks of life.

If it is only targeted at businessmen in all industries, it is undoubtedly the official who first robbed the common people, and then extorted businessmen, which is still one of them.

The second is also fatal, if you want to tax property, how to count these properties.

Now there is neither a banking system nor a computer network, and the currency is all metal money, so you can find a place to bury it in the ground, where can you find it.

Even if you pass the tax audit, it is mostly a gross estimate, and it is not accurate at all, not to mention that God knows what to do with personal property and how much you still have in your hand, which is simply unrealistic.

Third, the borders of various countries are relaxed, and the national borders of displaced people and refugees are very mobile. The implementation of the "Push Business Tax" in Xianguo allows them to bring their property and even their families to other countries to avoid taxes, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the industry and commerce of Xianguo.

Even though there is a large area of economic illiteracy at the moment, King Xian does not understand the economy, but the big Si Nong Mo Anzheng understands the economy, can King Xian really insist on going his own way?

"Brother Gao, you and I will go to the vegetable market quickly."

"Very good, here is coming for this."

Bai Liyan hung out the stop sign, rode on the horse and went to the entrance of the vegetable market in the west of the city with Gao Xun.

Public places with large population flows, such as Caishikou and City Gate, are important places for posting documents and notices, and in addition, the market and liquor stores are also key places for posting announcements.

Chengxi Caishikou is a five-cornered field, the center is a vacant land, the official list is erected in the center of the open space, the text written in cotton cloth is posted on the official list, hundreds of ordinary people are watching the scene, there are literate old men reading through the full text word by word, and most of the others are illiterate ordinary people.

Dismounted and squeezed into the crowd, it can be seen that eight of the twelve pages of the official list were pasted with inscriptions, and the title was Gongsun Yue's new policy "Pushing Business Tax"

There are a total of 21 new regulations in the "Push Business Tax", three of which are the most criticized, the first of which is Article 7, but anyone with a family of more than 500 yuan needs to declare wealth, including copper coins, gold and silver, jewelry, and all goods, which means that all palace magnates and officials are excluded.

Almost as long as the princes and nobles have fiefdoms, food eups, scholars and court officials, according to the merits and qualifications of the war, also rewarded a certain amount of eup, such as Zhao Xun has 200 acres of eup.

Due to the restrictions of the Liang Dynasty's "Grain Field Order", except for the nobles, scholars, doctors and meritorious lords, who were rewarded with land, no one else was allowed to keep the land, nor could it be bought or sold.

Even if you are so rich, you can't buy land, let alone keep your own land, and the ordinary people can only farm public land to make a living. However, nobles, scholars, and meritorious lords could buy and sell land through transactions.

Among them, the food is the most common reward, and most of them are the sealing of small pieces of land, which is convenient to control the strength of each sealing. As a reward for a large piece of land, the starting units are all villages and towns, and then they can be county towns and other big cities.

The biggest advantage of fiefdom and food euppy is that it is tax-free, all the population on the land is owned by the vassals, and the output can be tax-free, directly into the pockets of private individuals, and only a certain tribute to the imperial court at the end of the year can be paid.

By rewarding land, the monarch strengthened the cohesion of the ruling with the elite at its core, thus excluding the vast majority of the people from the chain of interests.

Now only land is excluded from fixed assets, which means that the spearhead of the "Push Business Tax" is aimed at all the rich and rich, including Bailiyan herself.

At present, the official exchange rate is one inch of gold for ten inches of silver, one inch of silver for copper coins, and one inch of silver for copper coins, which is always between 1,000 and 1,200 yuan.

Gold and silver are precious metals that are not available in large quantities nowadays, and copper coins are used as money, so it is difficult to redeem gold and silver. Nominally, an inch of silver can be exchanged for money, but the actual situation is more difficult.

Especially the common people, I am afraid that they have never seen silver in their lives. As the market's circulation, the merchants' domestic transactions were dominated by copper coins, and only gold and silver were used in bribes and foreign transactions, and of course there were a lot of gold and silver in their hands, but copper coins still accounted for a large part of the money stock.
