The latest adjustment of the luxury tax in Beizhili has reached a maximum rate of 300%, which has made the price of some luxury goods more than tripled.

However, smuggling is still rampant, and many businessmen use smuggling to avoid high tax rates.

However, for general merchants, although they have to pay business tax, corporate income tax, commodity value-added tax and other taxes, the collection of these taxes is within an acceptable range. Especially after the current economic situation is good, and the purchasing power of the people in Beizhili has increased a lot, the business has become more profitable.

This has led some private businessmen to reflect on it.

Paying commercial taxes has been around since ancient times. Previously, the imperial court did not levy any commercial taxes, nor did it carry out any economic stimulus, and economic development was like that, with the completion of various private constructions, the economy entered a state of more and more depression. The so-called private construction projects are actually the houses of the powerful and the like.

During the Wanli period, a lot of things such as houses and gardens of the folk magnates were basically built. However, there is a lot of money in the south, and there are still many garden projects. Some villages in the south are also very beautifully built at this time, with all kinds of facilities. To say that it is heaven on earth is not too much.

However, the economy of the north began to continue to decline.

At this time, after the imperial court carried out a lot of construction, the economy of Beizhili was immediately boosted, not only the life of the people was better, but the life of the merchants was not worse than before.

There is also an important tax in Beizhili at this time, that is, customs duties.

The tax bureau has established checkpoints on various commercial transportation routes in Beizhili. All goods entering and exiting from Beizhili. are subject to taxes.

Overall. The goods of Beizhili are exported to other provinces. The tax rate is generally lower. Only grain exports to other provinces are subject to high tax rates, which is very uneconomical. However, some of the other goods can even be refunded. The tax rate of goods transported from other provinces into Beizhili is generally higher.

Li Shanyin is a Beizhili workshop owner whose ancestors have been running a pancreatic workshop for three generations, as well as several pancreatic chain stores called 'Piaoxiangge'. The "Beizhili Business Administration Regulations" was promulgated. and the establishment of import and export duties. Li Shanyin suddenly saw the business opportunity, and took advantage of the opportunity of the price increase of the fragrant pancreas in the south because of the commercial tax, and decisively borrowed 3,000 yuan from the Royal Bank, expanded the pancreatic workshop several times, frantically expanded production capacity, and registered a company with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

It coincides with the expansion of the breeding industry in Beizhili, and there are many pig pancreas producing fragrant pancreas. Li Shanyin ordered all these pig pancreas, and then produced them into square-shaped pancreas, which are also divided into rose pancreas, osmanthus pancreas, and also added several different types of pancreas. Such as jasmine pancreas, clove pancreas.

Piaoxianglou is just a small-scale pancreatic shop, and it has sprung up in a short period of time. Because there is no need to pay import and export taxes in Beizhili. The price is lower than that of other brands of pancreas, and it was immediately welcomed by consumers, but the brand of pancreas is still more important after all.

But for ordinary people, if the price can be lower, they can be welcomed.

Piaoxianglou's fragrant pancreas quickly occupied the low-end market in the Gyeonggi area. At the time when public bathhouses were built everywhere in Beizhili, ordinary people earned money through workmanship, and there was a demand for fragrant pancreas, which soon turned the workshop of Piaoxianglou into a factory. In addition, outside of the Gyeonggi area, there is also a vast market, which makes this factory busy with production every day, and capital is accumulating.

Pancreatic is an ancient 'soap', but unlike soap, it has a more comprehensive decontamination ability than soap, and it is made from natural raw materials. That is, it is made of pig pancreas, which is generally not eaten by humans (generally used to feed dogs). Because the pancreas of animals contains a variety of digestive enzymes that break down fats, proteins, and starches, they have the ability to remove dirt. In the 21st century, it is still used in some areas, especially in winter, after the pig pancreas decomposes fat, it will also produce glycerin, which can moisturize the skin. However, it is very inconvenient to use pig pancreas alone, and in the Jin Dynasty, people have invented "bath beans" with pig pancreas as raw materials. After continuous development, by the time of the Ming Dynasty, the production of pancreas was more varied, and various natural flavors and sugar and other materials would be added.

The cost of pancreas is not high, but the price of fragrant pancreas such as flavor and sugar will be higher.

Pancreas will be eliminated in later generations, on the one hand, soap has appeared, and the cost is even lower, although it is not cheap, but there is always a price gap. The other is the problem of raw materials. The production of pancreas requires the use of pig pancreas, obviously the collection of raw materials is not very convenient, and most of the commercial pancreas in later generations are used to produce insulin, resulting in the inability to continue to produce fragrant pancreas on a large scale in industry, and only some small workshops still have some output.

The effect of fragrant pancreas is no worse than that of soap.

Li Shanyin's pancreatic factory occupied the ordinary pancreatic market in Beizhili, and also occupied a place in the high-end fragrant pancreas, and its rapid development immediately attracted the attention of the Royal Bank.

Yang Guorui, general manager of the Royal Bank, immediately sent someone to discuss capital injection with Li Shanchang.

"Mr. Li, our Royal Bank is very optimistic about your business, so we want to establish a joint venture with you." The staff of the Royal Bank had a very humble attitude, and they called them 'sir' when they saw people, which made Li Shanchang a little embarrassed, but at the same time, he was also shocked, how could he be targeted by the Royal Bank?

"This, I'm really embarrassed, the contemptible pancreatic business is a sole proprietorship of three generations of ancestors, and I really have no intention of partnering with others." Li Shanyin did not want to run this business with others, and in his opinion, the business of joint stock with others could not be done for a long time, and disputes were prone to occur.

The negotiators of the Royal Bank were unimpressed, smiled and continued: "Mr. Li doesn't have to be busy refusing, the conditions of our Royal Bank are very generous, and the funds will unconditionally support your expansion." ”

"Sorry, we don't lack money." Li Shanyin said with confidence, although he still owes a loan to the Royal Bank, but the light industry itself pays off quickly, and although it costs a lot of money to expand, it has earned it back in a short time.

"Is there a shortage of raw materials? Almost seventy percent of the large pig farms in Beizhili are the property of the Royal Agricultural Company, as well as the small pig farms in Huangzhuang, which are also royal properties. The negotiator asked with a smile.

"This, this ......" Li Shanyin was dumbfounded, the raw materials are simply a tight spell! The pancreas must be used for the production of pancreas. Small workshops naturally have no shortage of raw materials, but as soon as the business grows, the demand for pancreas is very large, and it must be provided by those pig farms. The threat of the Royal Bank is very obvious, if Li Shanyin does not cooperate, the Royal Bank can also not cooperate, and the raw materials will be pinched in the hands of others.

However, the words naturally could not be said so bluntly, and the negotiator said euphemistically: "We, the Royal Bank, are very optimistic about the pancreatic business. In the future, the economy of Beizhili will be developed, and tens of millions of people will almost have to use pancreas. With such a big market, Mr. Li shouldn't be able to see it, right? ”

"The market is really big, but it doesn't have to be a partnership!" Li Shanyin's forehead broke out in a cold sweat, and he was indeed a little repulsed by the joint stock operation.

"The market is big, but Mr. Li can't eat the whole market, right?"

Li Shanyin shook his head, the whole market is indeed too big to eat at all. If you barely eat it, you will only be strangled to death.

"Since the market is big, why not cooperate? We in the Royal Bank have the money, but also the raw materials. Mr. Li's ancestors have been in the pancreatic business for three generations, and he has market experience and industry foundation. As long as we cooperate, we can not only eat the entire market of Beizhili, but even expand to other provinces. At that time, the pattern will be completely different from the current one. The negotiator continued.

"Is the Royal Bank sure that it will eat the entire pancreatic market in Beizhili?" Li Shanyin asked with some suspicion.

"Of course." The negotiator said confidently: "First of all, our Royal Capital controls most of the raw materials in Beizhili, and as long as we join forces, we will only supply to your pancreatic factory." In addition, after the merger, you are a royal businessman and can apply for preferential tax rates. At the same time! The tax rate of other pancreatic manufacturers will be raised to a certain extent, especially for pancreas from other provinces, and the import tax rate can be directly increased several times. ”

The more Li Shanyin listened, the more terrible he felt, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

I finally know what is the most terrible weapon, and that is taxes! The taxation of Beizhili is obviously controlled by the royal capital.

Once he does not agree to the joint venture, then he will face the result that Royal Capital will find another pancreas factory to cooperate, and then not only will it be difficult for the pig pancreas to receive it and the output will be greatly reduced, but the tax rate will also increase, and it will immediately lose its market competitiveness.

However, a huge opportunity is in front of him, if the Royal Bank is really so engaged, then it is inevitable to eat most of the North Zhili. In particular, import tariffs will keep most of the pancreas from other provinces out of Beizhili, and will inevitably free up a lot of market share.

What does Mr. Li think? Would you like to join forces with Royal Bank? "The negotiators have said so much, and it is time for Li Shanyin to make a statement. If you can't negotiate, you can only find a joint venture partner. Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged merchants are everywhere. As long as the Royal Bank reveals a little bit of interest, some businessmen want to join forces with the Royal Bank.

"Okay, then merge shares." Li Shanyin immediately replied without hesitation, if he can eat the entire pancreatic business of Beizhili, the scale of the business will be at least dozens of times that of now, which is simply a pie-in-the-sky opportunity. (To be continued......)
