Chapter 372: Turning the Face
Tang Yi smiled disdainfully: "You have a foot in the sky and a foot on the ground, is there anything worthy of the official's trust?" ”
Lu Bing also said: "That is, just now it was seventy percent, and now it will be thirty percent, will you hold your head and get out of the way in a while?" ”
The young man smiled, "Lord Tang, Lu Taibao, you listen to the little one, we only need thirty percent of the shares of the money bank, but the little one ponders some dirty work and leaves it to us." ”
"What dirty work?" Lu Bing asked.
"It's the foot of the car and ship shop, you can't go to the port to fight the bag and wait for people, these are all left to us. We also took the job of being scolded again, and made sure that the adults could count the silver comfortably. ”
Tang Yi was puzzled: "What is the job of being scolded, you can make it clear." ”
"It's about collecting taxes." The young man said with a smile: "This is not our new invention, up and down Caokou, millions of stone of grain, which can be handled by the lord of the government, will naturally be distributed to the gentry merchants in various places, let them collect grain, and allow them to set up cards to collect taxes." ”
Tang Yi was furious, patted the table and said, "Do you also want to learn from the Cao Gang?" ”
"Don't dare, the small ones don't dare to compare with the Cao Gang, we came up with a new way, that is, the tax system, for example, you want to collect one million taels of tax silver a year, the small ones pay in advance, so that the adults can make a good deal, and then the small ones will collect the tax silver, even if the collection can't be collected, the loss will be filled by our cutting meat, what do you two think?"
The little old man also said: "Lord Tang, Lu Taibao, it is self-evident how risky it is to open the sea, can you guarantee success from the beginning?" If the small ones pay the tax money first and let you pay the difference, Your Majesty will naturally be happy, and the matter of opening the sea will get off to a good start. I can just show the ability of the two adults. ”
Lu Bing frowned, to be honest, he has not done this kind of tax system, take the capital as an example, there are all kinds of shops, if you want to operate steadily, you have to worship the mountain. It is necessary to provide for Jinyiwei, each block, how many shops, how much money to collect in a year, all handed over to a special person, to put it bluntly, it is a group of green-skinned scoundrels, hooligans and thugs, they Jinyiwei only collects cash.
If, as they say, leave the matter of collecting the tax and silver to them. was also happy to be idle, Lu Bing peeked at Tang Yi and asked what he meant.
Tang Yi shook his head like a rattle: "No, absolutely not, after the opening of the sea, there will only be more and more materials in the port, and if the tax is set down, won't the extra money fall into their pockets!" And then there is the tax for you. Who knows if it will go up and down and fill his own pockets! ”
The young man smiled: "Lord Tang is really agile. People say that there is no profit and you can't afford to be early, and the small ones are not fools who are willing to work in vain, but filling their pockets can be over, which of those businessmen is not cunning, and there are no people who know the root to the bottom of the staring, will they pay taxes honestly? As for the amount of taxes. Everything is negotiable, we can adjust it once a year to ensure that the sesame seeds bloom and bloom, so that the two of you can have both inside and outside the court. ”
Speaking of which, don't talk about Lu Bing. Even Tang Yi was moved.
"You wait first, this official has to discuss it with Lu Taibao."
Tang Yi got up, Lu Bing followed closely, and the two of them hurriedly walked behind.
The three people in the living room glanced at each other, and the young man looked disdainful, what a bullshit six, that is, not much better than a foolish egg, and when he saw a good thing that he could take silver without effort, he could not be moved!
The little old man was also triumphant, "Young Master, I think they are tempted, let's add some more price code." There are those who are officials, and those who are not greedy! ”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, not to mention how proud they were......
Lu Bing followed Tang Yi to the back, with a painstaking look on his face, his facial features frowned, and he couldn't help but say: "Okay, how do I think what they said is quite reasonable, taxation has always been difficult, and the local collection of land taxes also uses large farmers as grain chiefs and is responsible for collection, isn't it okay?" ”
Tang Yi sat on the wide circle chair, did not hurry to speak, but took two sips of tea and reproached: "Lu Taibao, why is it not a big red robe?" Is it reluctant? ”
Lu Bing was so angry that he laughed, "I said that you kid still has the heart to put on a score, hurry up and solve the matter in front of you, the back of my neck has been cold for the past two days!" ”
"Hahaha, Lu Taibao, don't worry." Tang Yi crossed Erlang's legs, picked up the candied fruit casually, took two bites, and said with a smile: "Do you think that the opening of the sea is for that bit of tax silver?" ”
"Isn't it?" Lu Bing asked in surprise.
"Yes." Lu Bing almost spurted blood, but listened to Tang Yi continue: "It's just a small proportion, after the opening of the sea, a large number of materials from the southeast will be transported north, and at the same time, the products from the north, such as cattle and sheep, horses, timber, and medicinal materials, will also be transported south, and a huge market will be formed between the exchanges." What really matters is pricing power, control of the market! Tang Yi said in a low voice: "Lu Taibao, let me ask, if you can decide the price of grain and cloth in the capital, if you want it to rise, it will rise, and if you want it to fall, you will fall, do you still care about that bit of tax silver?" ”
Suck!
Lu Bing's mouth is open, and he can stuff two big duck eggs side by side!
Crazy, crazy!
Lu Bing's first reaction was that this kid was too rebellious and disobedient, so he should stay away from him as soon as possible, so as to save himself from being connected to the nine clans. But his legs were like nails, nailed to the ground.
For men, power is like a thorny rose, full of fatal attraction!
Lu Bing has already sat at the apex of the people, but he is still afraid, still worried, why, isn't he not strong enough, and the power in his hands is not big enough?
Tang Yi is just a new science and technology jinshi, a little Hanlin, but why does he sit on an equal footing with the court bigwigs, and even wrestle his wrists, isn't he relying on the unfathomable forces behind him!
Lu Bing was called one of the three heroes in the world by Yan Shifan, of course he was not stupid, after listening to Tang Yi's words, he also knew what he lacked the most!
Tang Yi admired Lu Bing's demeanor very much, when he and Zhu Xizhong revealed their plans, that Chengguo Gong was not much better than Lu Bing.
Tang Yi continued to increase the size and said with a smile: "Lu Taibao, if you control the market in Tianjin, let whose goods come in and who you don't let in, the knowledge here will be great, and the shopping mall is like a battlefield, even if it is a day and a half late, you may lose a lot of money." Guarding Tianjin, you can secretly manipulate the gentry and businessmen in the southeast, Jia Haoqiang, and let them compete with each other, what a connection! ”
A series of critical attacks, Lu Bing's psychological defense line was completely destroyed, and Li Mo's death caused a much more serious blow to Lu Bing than imagined.
For the first time, he began to doubt Jiajing's holy family, in the face of an elusive emperor, he climbed too high and knew too many secrets, and it was very likely that Jiajing would depose him without the help of the new monarch.
So how can you protect yourself?
Tang Yi opened the best way for him, power, not only in the court, but also in the rivers and lakes, not only in the officialdom, but also in the golden vein!
Only by being impeccable can we sit firmly on the Diaoyutai!
Milk brothers are not reliable, only in their own hands is the most reliable!
Thinking of this, Lu Bing had a question, "Okay, according to what you say, we can't agree to the unreasonable request of the Wenxiang Sect!" ”
Lu Bing unconsciously used the word "we".
Tang Yi smiled and said, "Lu Taibao, do you think I will promise them?" A bunch of things that don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth, and they still want to snatch meat from my mouth to eat, it's a dream! What else is the tax system, this thing is okay for a few shops on a street, but if it is put in a port, a city, it will be a disaster. At that time, the Yuan Dynasty appointed a large number of Uighur merchants to pay for various taxes, but the merchants levied and extorted money, which made the heavens angry and resentful, and the Great Yuan Dynasty collapsed, and only then did the Ming Dynasty unify the country! Tianjin is a seed in our hands, we must take care of it carefully, if we let the rotten gardener of the smelling fragrance sect, we can only get a crooked neck tree! ”
Tang Yi said it simply, Lu Bing was also agitated, his fists were clenched, and he said angrily: "I'll cut those three rabbit cubs now!" ”
"Don't!"
Tang Yi grabbed Lu Bing, "Lu Taibao, it's not possible at the moment, we still have to talk to them and stabilize them." ”
Lu Bing patted his head, "Look at my memory, I listen to the arrangement." ”
Tang Yi and Lu Bing discussed properly, this time Lu Bing didn't have to come forward, replaced by Tang Yi and Lu Jun, and they went out to negotiate. This time, the content is much more specific, such as how much is the annual tax quota, how to increase it in the future, and how to prevent arbitrary levies......
When encountering specific matters, Tang Yi's sharpness and sharpness came up again, and often they came up with a plan, and Tang Yi could point out the flaws in one word.
Then Lu Jun fought with them until his face was red and his neck was thick, he kept slapping the table, and even scolded his mother.
The more the conversation became more and more intense, just a few of them were no longer enough, and both sides found their own bookkeepers, arguing with each other, and not giving in to each other.
The young man who smelled the fragrance sect even admired Tang Yi a little, this Tang Da champion was not as straw as he looked, and he still had goods in his stomach.
But don't be complacent, the rules are dead, but people are alive, you can't keep an eye on Tianjin, as long as you buy off the officials who took over, and then modify them back little by little, it's not impossible.
It's ridiculous to say that both sides have their own minds, but they are trying their best to perform, thinking that the other party has been fooled.
In this way, they quarreled for more than two days, and finally took out the plan for the tax package, and formulated a detailed implementation rule.
The young man held the text in his hand, came to Tang Yi, and said with a smile: "Lord Tang, do you want to see if it's time to sign and draw?" ”
"Not busy!"
"Do you want to change it?"
"No need!"
Tang Yi glanced at the door, only to see a person gesture towards Tang Yi in a circle, Tang Yi comprehended, smiled and picked up the teacup, saw that the young man opposite did not move, and suddenly took the teacup!
"Wang Haoxian, don't you even understand this rule? Serve tea and send guests, you don't get out yet! ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, and shouted, "How do you know that my name is Wang Haoxian?" ”
"Your father is Wang Sen, the head of the Wenxiang Sect, your mother was originally a big dancer, relying on deceiving fools and stupid women, your family has made a fortune, not being honest, and still wants to blackmail the official, and he doesn't pee and take pictures!" Tang Yi smacked hard, "It's a waste for this official to talk so much to you!" Come on, beat them out! (To be continued.) )
