One hundred and thirteen The game of taxation

In fact, they all know very well what the mining tax is all about. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The agriculture of the Ming Dynasty fell into a bottleneck, unable to increase higher taxes, but the commercial tax is promising, but the traditional practice is to focus on agriculture and suppress business, the commercial tax is very low, should be a big head of the commercial tax but often become a small head, no sense of existence, from the beginning of the Jiajing period, the emperor began to start on the commercial tax, the controversy over whether to open the sea or not, in fact, is the Jiajing Emperor and a large number of administrative officials as the representative of the landlord gentry group for commercial taxation of a game.

This game ended with Longqing Switch and Emperor Longqing being fooled into success, and most of the interests of Kaihai fell into the pockets of local business groups, but Zhu Yijun is obviously higher than his father's IQ, and Zhu Yijun, who was taught by the wealthy blaster Zhang Juzheng, is definitely not a good stubble.

Therefore, he used his brain a little, and saw through every detail of his Jiajing grandfather and the ministers' fighting methods at a glance, and perfectly bypassed the civil official system, and found another way to fight for the commercial tax that should have belonged to the imperial court.

But this obviously touched the interests of the local business group, as the spokesperson of the business group, the civil officials of the imperial court naturally had to fight to the death, vigorously resist, occupy the moral high ground to the emperor verbally and penally, and the emperor had to take back his life.

But will it be so simple to snatch food from the tiger's mouth? Even if the other party is the emperor, it is better to say that it is precisely because the other party is the emperor that he must not let go.

The empire's industrial and commercial economy developed greatly, and the landlords, gentry, and big merchant groups were full of brains, but officials and businessmen united to evade taxes, causing the country's tax revenue to lose more than half every year.

Zhu Yijun faced this situation, it is impossible to pass a resolution to increase the commercial tax in a formal way, and the civil officials will definitely obstruct it in every possible way, and when the time comes, they will spend money to buy their lives, and make a few "martyrs" crash to death to "ask for the people's lives", Zhu Yijun is hindered by public opinion, and there is no way not to compromise, so Zhu Yijun directly sent the eunuchs down to share a cup of broth with them, and there are so many pots of broth, and one more person will share it, and there will be less.

Originally, everyone could reach a consensus and divide the profits, but now Emperor Zhu is running over with a big spoon and a bowl to scoop it, isn't this a broken rule?

The point is, the emperor is the sky, if Zhu Yijun is addicted to drinking broth, it will be a bad thing, maybe he will take this meat basin away, everyone doesn't even have scum left, where to cry? Therefore, when everyone saw Emperor Zhu doing this, they were anxious at that time, and in short, everyone used all kinds of methods one after another to prevent the emperor from intervening in the distribution of related interests.

Song Yingchang and Liu Huangsheng, who were well versed in the truth, understood Xiao Ruxun's thoughts at that time, and also understood what situation Xiao Ruxun would face if this passage was seen by those civil officials in the capital.

"Xiao Jixin believes me......"

Song Yingchang sighed so much, he is a literary handsome, Liu Huangshang also has a background of a literary general, in fact, the two of them are no longer accepted by the civilian group, Liu Huangshang may continue to stay in the military department after this battle, but once he Song Yingchang wins this battle, the end will not be much better than Ye Mengxiong, and naturally he will not wear a pair of pants with those gentlemen at this time.

"It's hard to become a famous general, but you can't die in this matter, Jing Liugong, what do you think?"

"What should I do?" Song Yingchang sighed, thought for a while, and said: "Only you and I have seen this good news, burn it, write another copy, and then I will write a handwritten letter to Ji Xin, let him be cautious in his words and deeds, don't say this kind of thing again, this matter is in the eyes of you and me, no third party knows, for the sake of the country, Xiao Jixin must be saved!" Good generals are rare! ”

Liu Huangshang nodded: "My subordinates understand." ”

Song Yingchang nodded, took out the fire fold and blew it on, burned the report completely, and then wrote a handwritten letter to warn Xiao Ruxun about the inside affairs of some civil official groups and the basic guidelines for being a general in the current season, as well as the red line, he didn't want the seed of such a famous general to fall on this kind of thing.

In the countless years since, because of this incident, Xiao Ruxun is extremely grateful to Song Yingchang and Liu Huangsheng, and because of this lesson, Xiao Ruxun began to reflect on his behavior and began to learn how to be truly cautious in his words and deeds.

At this moment, Xiao Ruxun was in the big tent of the military camp outside Pyongyang, holding the string of beads given to him by Zhu Yijun in one hand, and checking the terrain of Hwanghae-do and Gyeonggi-do in North Korea on the map with the other.

There is also information that the main force of the Japanese in Gangwon Province also began to move in the direction of Seoul, and there is a plan for the whole army to press on Seoul and defend Seoul and the Ming army against Gang, Xiao Ruxun checked the terrain of Hwanghaedo and Kaesong, and decided to wait for the grain and grass to be almost ready, then lead the army south to take Hwanghaedo, attack Kaesong, and use Kaesong as a springboard to Seoul, and let the Korean army take Hwanghaedo and Gangwon Province, which have become borderless.

The main force is the infantry army, which moves relatively slowly, and needs to move together with the grain and grass transport brigade, which will take about two days to do, but the cavalry is not subject to such restrictions, and the terrain of the Hwanghae Road is relatively flat, starting from Pyongyang and galloping all the way along the west side to Kaesong, it can be reached in three days, and it is not a problem to rest for the night, and the siege is not a problem.

Xiao Ruxun planned to let Nurhachi have some blood, let the Jurchen soldiers fight to the death with the Japanese army, consume the Japanese army's troops, and just appease Li Rusong's restless heart.

"General, General Li and General Tong are here."

"Please."

Xiao Ruxun walked back to his seat and sat down.

Li Rusong and Nurhachi lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Meet the Admiral."

Nurhachi was extremely deferential, and Li Rusong also hugged his fists and made a show, and he couldn't tear his face apart.

Xiao Ruxun smiled, didn't care, stretched out his hand and said, "Two generals, please take a seat." ”

The two sat down, and Xiao Ruxun spoke: "Invite the two generals over today, there is something to be handed over to the two generals to do." ”

Li Rusong blinked his eyes and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"According to the intelligence, the Japanese have basically evacuated Huanghae Road, and there are 10,000 troops stationed in Kaesong, and this governor wants you to lead the cavalry under your command to take Kaesong as the advance base of our army."

"What?!"

Li Rusong and Nurhachi spoke in unison, but the difference is that Li Rusong was inexplicably surprised, and Nurhachi was inexplicably frightened.
