In fact, everyone present also knew that this matter was okay in private, but it couldn't be said on the surface. The gentry have always been high-minded, looking down on merchants, military households, and farmers.

In their view, these are untouchables, Shinong, industrialists, and scholars, and they are the first of the four people.

Everyone else doesn't read, they don't understand the way of the saints, they can do it themselves, but they have to flaunt their own nobility.

Zhu Yijun is going to step on their kind of high level into the mud this time, since you are awesome, then don't do business, don't open a shop. Since you are noble and ashamed of your words, then don't spend money.

This time, no matter who is against it, Zhu Yijun will push this policy down.

Even if it is to remove a group of officials because of this, Zhu Yijun will not hesitate to do so.

After Chen Aiqing's words were finished, Zhu Yijun nodded to Chen Yi with a smile, and said with a smile: "Chen Aiqing is insightful, if you Aiqing still have any ideas, you can say it, don't have any scruples!" ”

"Your Majesty, the tax department's fine is huge, isn't this a penance silver? Can you be exonerated if you pay the money? The minister thinks this is not good. Pan Sheng stood up and said: "A small punishment and a big precept are enough, such a fine is easy for people to feel like they are expropriating and expropriating!" ”

Zhu Yijun glanced at Pan Sheng, nodded slightly, and his face became serious.

"I think Pan Aiqing has a point, and it is indeed inappropriate to replace the crime with silver, so don't do it. Any owner who operates without a license will be imprisoned for three years in the army. Zhu Yijun glanced at Pan Sheng: "What does Aiqing think?" ”

Pan Sheng's face turned red instantly, his eyes stared at the boss, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.

Shen Shixing glanced at Pan Sheng, and scolded secretly in his heart, if there is not enough success and more than failure, don't say it if you can't say it, what kind of atonement silver, is there a pit in your head? This is good, it turned out to be just a fine of silver, and now it is 3,000 miles to the army, and it is three years in prison.

If this punishment is spread, Pan Sheng will have to be drowned, and the end will be very miserable.

"Your Majesty, I think what Master Pan said is ridiculous!" Shen Shixing could only stand up at this time, and said with a serious face: "The business certificate of the Tax Department is intended to limit the business scope of businessmen and prevent hoarding. ”

"This is a good thing, now there are merchants operating without a license, and it is only the beginning, and the punishment of the fine is appropriate."

After listening to Shen Shixing's words, he also hurriedly spoke up and echoed Shen Shixing. If this is done according to the emperor's method, then the matter will be big, and if you fill the army for 3,000 miles and go to prison for three years, it will be fatal. Everyone looked at Pan Sheng's gaze, which is called a bad one, are you here to be funny?

Zhu Yijun glanced at Pan Sheng, and he was about to laugh in his heart, this Pan Sheng is really a pig teammate.

But this kind of thinking soon disappeared, in fact, this is not the first time Pan Sheng has done this, it is good to say once or twice, but it is not a coincidence that it has been like this several times. Zhu Yijun glanced at Pan Sheng, his eyes were a little funny, this person was a little interesting.

Whether it is Pan Sheng or Yu Youding, they were all recommended by Zhang Juzheng before his death, and it is unlikely that Zhang Juzheng will recommend two straw bales.

Pan Sheng seemed to have reacted at this time, and hurriedly said: "It's the minister's words, the tax department did a good job, did the right thing!" ”

Looking at Pan Sheng's appearance, Zhu Yijun smiled, this person is really interesting. Waving his hand, Zhu Yijun said indifferently: "Pan Aiqing doesn't have to be like this, the court meeting is a place for everyone to discuss, and Aiqing can speak freely." ”

As soon as Pan Sheng did this, this matter was completely stopped, and the tax department directly had nothing to do.

After the matter of the knighthood and the tax department was finished, the result was still very satisfactory, Zhu Yijun's eyes swept over everyone again, and said lightly: "A few Aiqing, now there are four scholars in the cabinet, and there is one vacancy, you recommend a few people to come up!" ”

In fact, there are actually quite a few of the four scholars in the cabinet now, but this has nothing to do with the number.

There are a lot of big people inside and outside the imperial court now, and some people need to move, otherwise they will become stagnant. Choosing someone to come up can lead to the promotion of a line of officials, and it can also divert attention.

Now the officials are focusing on the tax bureau, which is not good.

With the matter of electing cabinet ministers, everyone's attention will shift to this, the high-level has been transferred, and it is useless for the people below to jump. Zhu Yijun is playing with his hands now, and he is not dragging mud and water at all, it can be said to be clean and neat.

"Your Ministers obey!" No one will be right about this, and there is no way to oppose it.

The four cabinet scholars do not let others enter the cabinet, and it is estimated that the end will be miserable, and a figure like Zhang Juzheng can't do it, let alone them. As for the six Shangshu, except for Wang Guoguang, who doesn't care too much, he can't enter the cabinet because he is a scholar, and everyone else cares a lot.

"Then let's disperse!" Zhu Yijun stood up, waved his hand and walked outside.

This court meeting seems to be a very ordinary court meeting, but countless people are concerned about the issue of the tax department, which makes this court meeting extremely important. When the news spread, the court was silent.

Many people know the emperor's punishment for not having a business license, which is 3,000 miles of army and three years in prison.

This time, no one was bouncing, and for a while the entire court stopped, and they were afraid of really pursuing it. Now that the money has been spent, if you don't come back, if you really anger the emperor, it will be 3,000 miles of army and three years in vain!

Daxing County, Taxation Division.

Wang Yongji looked at the business certificate registration form in his hand and nodded with satisfaction.

"Very well, all the collected goods and silver will be filled into the treasury of the tax department, and the collected cloth and things will be distributed to the people in the yamen, and it will be three, which will be regarded as their reward this time."

"Send the rest to the Haixian Order, let him use it to relieve the people of this county!"

Although there are a lot of confiscated things, they are not much, and they cannot be sold, so it is only appropriate to arrange them. In fact, Wang Yongji also knew that this kind of thing would happen in the future, so a channel to deal with these things was necessary.

Wang Yongji pondered for a moment and decided to write to the emperor, this is a problem!

Maybe there will not be this time when registering the business license, but there will be more unlicensed operations in the future, because the tax department will collect taxes according to the business category on the business certificate, and there will definitely be people who evade taxes and do not apply for business licenses.

When Wang Yongji was preparing to write to Zhu Yijun, the Daxing County Ya received a complaint.

Hai Rui stroked his beard and looked at the form, turned his head to look at Xu Wenchang beside him, and then said: "Look at this form, this is coming too fast." As he spoke, he handed the form to Xu Wenchang.

After taking the picture and looking at it, Xu Wenchang immediately smiled: "It's really fast enough." ”

This state is actually very simple, a man named Wang San, he has a rice shop. Two days ago, Wang San sold this rice shop to Zhao Si for three hundred taels of silver, and the two of them had already signed the contract and notarized it at the county notary office.

Originally, everything was normal, but Shen Yi, a gentry from this county, jumped out at this time, and he said that the rice shop was his.

"It's easy to do!" Xu Wenchang put down the shape in his hand and said with a smile: "Break it as you want, tomorrow is the day to make a announcement, right?" Spread the news and go out for a public trial in the lobby tomorrow. ”

Hai Rui snorted coldly: "It's just sweeping the floor, I have to teach them a lesson." ”

On the same day, the news spread all over Daxing County, and after the matter spread, many people chuckled in their hearts. Especially those who put the store under someone else's name, this heart is even more unconfident.

This led to the public trial, and many people came to the county hall.

Hai Rui walked up expressionlessly in an official uniform, and after sitting down, he patted the shocked wood and said loudly: "Ascend to the hall!" ”

With this shout, the official hit the ground with the wind and fire stick in his hand and said loudly: "Mighty! ”

"Take the plaintiff Shen Yi!" With Hai Rui's order, a man in a Confucian shirt walked in, and after entering the lobby, Shen Yi bowed and said, "Student Shen Yi, see the county commander!" ”

Hai Rui nodded and asked, "Is there a meritorious name?" ”

"Go back to the county to order the adults, the students will be raised in the second year of Wanli!" Shen Yi nodded and said, in fact, Shen Yi also knew that Hai Rui was actually from a high background, not much taller than him, which made him somewhat disdainful of Hai Rui.

However, Hai Rui has long been famous all over the world, and now it is a county order, so Shen Yi doesn't dare to show it.

"This is your paper, isn't it?" Hai Rui looked at Shen Yi, raised the paper in his hand, and then said, "You are suing Wang San, stealing your store and reselling it to others, is it true?" ”

"Back to my lord, it's true!" Shen Yi hurriedly bowed and said.

"Come on, bring Wang San!" Hai Rui nodded and spoke again.

It didn't take long for Wang San to be brought up, and Wang San, who was dressed in sackcloth, was in his thirties, and he looked like a businessman with a shrewdness. After entering the lobby, he knelt down with a plop, and then spoke: "Villain Wang San, see Lord Qingtian." ”

Hai Rui nodded, and then said, "Wang San, there is a plaintiff Shen Yi who sued you for stealing other people's stores and reselling them, can you do this?" ”

"Master, Lord Qingtian, there is no such thing!" Wang San kowtowed and defended: "It's Shen Yi who fell in love with the villain's shop and wanted to buy it forcibly, but the villain was afraid of the power of the Shen family, so he had no choice but to sell the shop, please be aware of it!" ”

Glancing at Wang San and then at Shen Yi, Hai Rui nodded: "Since both of you said that this shop is yours, is there evidence?" ”

Before Shen Yi could speak, Wang San spoke first: "Adult, adult, small one has evidence!" Saying that, Wang San took out two pieces of paper from his arms: "Master, this is the villain's registration book at the tax bureau, with the villain's signature and handprint, this is the business certificate of the villain's rice shop, please take a look." ”

"Bring it on!" Hai Rui glanced at Shen Yi and said expressionlessly.
