Someone asked puzzledly, "What does this Zigong have to do with this matter?" ”

Huo Siyi patted the ruler, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "It's a big deal!" This "Dashun Minbao" is the voice of the imperial court, and with the help of the Huangzhuang's affairs, it must be said something. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info You think, the imperial court will definitely not be untargeted, there must be an article here......"

Some people also listened, while some people were indifferent and asked: "You are 'talking about three points', but I am afraid that the world will not be chaotic!" We'd like to hear it, what's in it? ”

Huo Si shook his head and said: "You think, this 'Pin Ming Xuan' is the 'Duanmu Relic Style', the so-called gentleman loves money and takes it from it." When the imperial court released this, isn't it saying that there are people who love money but have no way to take it? ”

These words were like dropping a boulder in a calm lake, and in an instant it caused a large splash. There was a commotion in the Fan Building, and everyone was shocked and inexplicable, and then they began to talk to each other. Those who can mix with the class of officials and nobles are not stupid. Even if you fall into the eyes of money again, you should be vigilant at this time.

It's a pity that there are still many people in this world who don't believe in evil, or they are lucky: "'Say three points', you are alarmist, right?" There is no news from the imperial court, why are you so sure? If you want me to say, you just want the world to be chaotic! ”

Huo Sifeng was light, without a trace of annoyance: "This guest official said it well, there is no rumor in the imperial court, these are all small speculations." There is a Tao that is unpredictable, how can mortals understand? However, from a small point of view, since his accession to the throne, this saint has punished corrupt officials, appointed virtuous ministers, reduced taxes, allocated funds to control water, built water conservancy, encouraged reclamation, pacified the sea, resisted strong enemies outside, and rested with the people. You and I are fortunate to be able to eat and drink in Fan Lou today, thanks to the blessings of the saints. In the past two years, at the beginning of the new policy, commercial taxes were levied, and the business was much better, and there were more people doing business. When there are many people, the heart is mixed. Take our restaurants in Chang'an City as an example, there are some restaurants that are not authentic and mix water with wine. In fact, everyone is a clear-eyed person, and this wine is fake, and you will know it when you eat it. There is a saying that has spread, this wine is a pound, a pound of water, and a bottle of wine is another pound. We Fan Lou will not, the real material, Tong Su is not bullied, you must have heard of the reputation of Fan Lou. Our Fanlou wine and food are not top-notch, and Hefeng Lou and Heyue Lou are better than us, but why our Fanlou is still doing well depends on four words, 'Tong Suo is not bullied'! ”

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The applause rang out at the right time, and everyone followed the sound to see that it was a pot-bellied poop, and at a glance, they knew that it was the kind of pampered and pampered.

"Well said!" This fat man was dressed in silk and satin, like a Maitreya Buddha coming down from the lotus platform.

"Who is this man?" Someone started whispering.

"You don't know this, Fan Lou's family, I heard that it is related to the court, and the in-laws of Empress Taizong of this dynasty can be regarded as a national relative. Hehe, otherwise, how could this business be so big? ”

"Hey, this brother-in-law is up to now, but it can't hit eight poles, can you still do such a big business?"

"You don't understand this, people are not only related to the court, but also related to the rivers and lakes, and the backers are very hard!"

When it comes to "rivers and lakes", some diners are clamoring. Don't say that the Han people are bloodless, in fact, in Qindi, the Han people are still the top men.

The owner of Fan Lou admires Huo Si very much, he is simply a talent. In this stall, I can't forget to advertise Fan Lou. In fact, Huo Si is not a smear opponent, after all, this wine is mixed with water, and everyone is used to it. Chang'an City is okay, after all, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if it is stabbed to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, this restaurant will have a bad reputation. The rest of the state capitals, as long as the relationship is hard, which one doesn't make this black money? This is not to blame them, mainly because Dashun Brewing Industry is too strict. This kind of system is called wine, and it is also called drunkenness. As the name suggests, it means that the imperial court strictly controls the private brewing and self-sale of alcohol, and the heavier ones can be sentenced. Except, of course, fruit wines.

How can this wine be controlled?

It turns out that in order to make wine, there must be koji. The imperial court controlled the koji, so naturally the wine could not be brewed. Why did the imperial court control winemaking? As we all know, this wine is made from grain, and grain cannot be sold for a few dollars, but if it is made into wine, the price will be much more expensive. The imperial court is afraid that everyone will swarm to make wine and lose all the food, so do you have to rely on drinking to survive? This policy was introduced, which strictly limited the amount of sake brewed, for fear of wasting food. This is all related to productivity, at this time the grain output is not high, people can't feed themselves, where is there any surplus grain to make wine! So the less the wine, the more expensive it is. When wine is expensive, the imperial court will pay more taxes. Even if there is a commercial tax now, this liquor tax and commercial tax are still paid separately.

Merchants are very profitable, and wine is so expensive, is there any way to make some quick money? Crooked brain, this wine is watery, isn't it okay to mix it with water? So, a person did it, and the one who followed the trend came, and for a while, in Dashun, water wine really became water wine.

In order to control the brewing of liquor, Dashun has made great efforts in the form of liquor, and there are official supervision liquor (liquor storehouses), licensed liquor households and buying and selling workshops that are common throughout the country. At the state and prefectural levels, the imperial court set up an agency for brewing and selling koji and collecting liquor taxes called the capital liquor service, and the county level called the liquor service. There are two types of supervisors, those who are in charge of the liquor administration and supervise the production of the liquor, and the officials who are in charge of the liquor department, who are responsible for collecting the liquor tax. The nature of the buying and selling workshop is actually a kind of tax package system, and the workshop here refers to the wine factory. The method is to sign a contract with the government by the tax contractor who has the ability to use the assets as collateral. During the contract, the contractor obtained the right to brew and sell, and no one else was allowed to intervene, but the contractor had to pay the liquor tax to the government on time according to the amount of liquor tax stipulated in the contract, and if he failed to pay it on time, he would be fined. If the taxpayer runs a market and loses money or goes bankrupt due to poor management, the mortgaged assets will be confiscated and confiscated.

This liquor tax is also the easiest to breed, in the first two years of rectifying the officialdom, the official supervisor and the liquor department pulled out more than ten big fish, and they all lost their heads. Before Dashun, it was not that there was no commercial tax, but a monopoly commercial tax, and there were few people who did business, and the amount was not much, so the tax naturally could not come up.

Getting back to the point, this Huo Si saw that the owner was coming, and said even harder: "So, everyone, the imperial court is going to take action, if you don't want to be affected by the pond fish, these tricks are abducted, it's better to stop it as soon as possible!" ”

The owner of Fan Lou looked at Huo Si with a smile, more like Maitreya Buddha. He seemed to be looking at a treasure, staring at Huo Si and thinking: "This kid is too temperamental...... he knows that once today's play spreads, it is estimated that Fan Lou's reputation will be completely started! Thinking of the rolling wealth, can this proprietor not be happy! (To be continued.) )
