At this time, the tax bureau has begun to operate in full swing. In the second year of the Apocalypse, the scale of the tax bureau has expanded several times.

With the implementation of the "Regulations on Industry and Commerce", tax revenue suddenly skyrocketed. Once this comprehensive tax model is established, the amount of tax will naturally not be comparable with the previous one.

In particular, it is obviously difficult to evade taxes by goods value-added tax. It is easy to find out how many things are produced by a workshop or factory. Raw materials can be checked, and transportation can be checked. The other is that if you don't pay VAT on goods, you obviously can't pass the checkpoints of collecting taxes.

The tax bills of the tax bureau were all over the north at this time.

For goods from other provinces, high tolls are charged. For local goods in Beizhili, as long as you pay VAT, you can clear customs for free. If you don't pay VAT, you will be charged a higher tax by the customs.

At the same time as the comprehensive taxation of Beizhili, Zhu Youxiao is also building trade barriers in Beizhili. Beizhili is completely operated as a country within a country, but all goods from other provinces are charged tolls, which is also similar to customs import duties. Once trade barriers are formed, they can prevent the impact of other provinces on the commodity manufacturing industry of Beizhili, so that the manufacturing industry of Beizhili can develop.

At the same time, money customs were also set up on the rivers of Caoyun, and passing ships, whether private or official, all of them who did not transport grain had to pay tolls, and they were collected very harshly.

The merchants of Tongzhou are unlucky now, and the luck they rely on for survival has been hit hard this time.

Trade barriers quickly formed, and soon the merchants of Northern Zhili saw business opportunities. Soon after, the Cabinet promulgated the "Industrial Encouragement Law", calling on private businessmen to develop industry.

"From now on, new enterprises involving steel manufacturing, porcelain, textiles, shoes and hats, and breeding will be exempted from corporate income tax for three years, and can obtain low-interest entrepreneurial loans from the Royal Bank."

Looking at this decree published in the newspaper, many businessmen in Beizhili were enlivened.

However, this is not over, Zhu Youxiao soon had a new move, that is, the establishment of an industrial zone. The first to be established is Jingshi Industrial Zone, as well as Tianjin Industrial Zone and Cizhou (Xingtai) Industrial Zone.

The tens of millions of yuan of road repair fees that Zhu Youxiao threw out this time were the first gravel roads that ran through the three industrial zones, and each gravel road was built very wide.

This means that these three industrial zones can form convenient transportation conditions, heavy horse-drawn carriages have been put into use at this time, and large orders have already been obtained.

In addition to convenient transportation, industrial zones can form industrial facilities.

For example, Cizhou Industrial Zone is based on steel and focuses on steel manufacturing. The Royal Iron and Steel Company smelted the steel, so the steel is obviously inseparable from private capital to make various commodities. As large as all kinds of machinery, as small as embroidery needles, there are a lot of steel products, what machinery manufacturing, naturally it is the royal capital package, but who will make embroidery needles? There are also those ordinary farm tools or something, it is better to subcontract them to private capital.

The Jingshi Industrial Zone is mainly dominated by the military industry.

Tianjin Industrial Zone will focus on light industries such as light textiles, shoes and hats, as well as chemicals.

The plots of land in these three industrial zones were quickly encircled and construction began. In order to build the industrial area as much as possible, the construction site is full of workers. The construction of roads is to divide a road into several sections, and then build them at the same time.

After the implementation of these measures, many privately-funded businessmen in Beizhili immediately took action, and they went to the bank to take loans and start to start industries.

However, most businessmen are still on the sidelines.

In terms of the industrial development of Beizhili, Zhu Youxiao also planned in detail. Focus on encouraging manufacturing that is related to people's livelihood, as well as those goods that can be used for export.

The commodities that were relatively large in those years were nothing more than grain, steel, porcelain, textiles, coal, vegetables, meat, as well as water, wine, salt, and tea.

Among them, the mining industry has become an advantageous industry under the operation of the Royal Mining Company, especially after the expansion of coal mining, it is definitely a good export commodity.

Salt and grain sales will also be monopolized in Beizhili.

Iron and steel smelting is also the current advantageous industry of Beizhili, but it is not very cost-effective to directly export steel, and it has high added value when processed into steel products. Therefore, the steel manufacturing industry has become a project to encourage the development of private capital.

In addition to the steel manufacturing industry, porcelain and textiles are weak industries, and porcelain is obviously more profitable, but there are also many official kilns and private kilns in Beizhili, and they can still be developed if they are integrated. The problem of raw material quality is also very easy to solve, it is a big deal to buy good quality clay from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, if there are enough merchant ships, the freight is not high, and the added value of porcelain itself is relatively high, and it is a bulk commodity exported overseas. Porcelain production developed, and once the maritime trade was opened, large sums of silver could be earned.

The textile industry is a top priority, and everyone has to wear clothes. Today, the textile industry center of Daming is located in Songjiang Province, and the textile machinery is relatively advanced. It is difficult for the textiles of Beizhili to compete with the textiles of Songjiang Prefecture, so the protection of local trade barriers, coupled with policy encouragement, will soon emerge a large number of private textile factories.

Aquaculture can improve the living standards of the people, and it is obviously impossible for royal capital to monopolize the aquaculture industry, so the aquaculture industry has become an industry that encourages development.

The royal capital obviously only needs a deep monopoly of heavy industry, and the light industry can first let the development of private capital, and then a group of private businessmen who are good at operating light industry will naturally emerge, and the royal bank can choose to inject capital into these private enterprises and form joint ventures to absorb those businessmen who are good at the development of light industry into the royal consortium.

While Zhu Youxiao promulgated these policies, the investment of Royal Capital also continued. The second phase of the Royal Agricultural Corporation's reclamation project is almost complete, and a large number of farmers have been resettled. Royal Mining's mining activities continue to grow, with the mining of ores such as coal, copper, and iron ore expanding. The size of the Royal Military Factory was also expanded again in the second year of the Apocalypse, and production began to be extremely large. The road construction of the Royal Infrastructure Company is in full swing. The Royal Salt Company is also expanding its salt drying scale.

A large amount of investment brought a large number of jobs, the growth of the employed population, and the increase of people's income, and generated more demand for commodities, which in turn led to more jobs, and soon detonated the economic prosperity of Beizhili.

Many businessmen, after paying taxes, find that they make more profit every month than before. (To be continued.) )
