Songjiang Mansion is useless and does not pay taxes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, the first clear news was sent from the central government, in order to increase the financial revenue to let Songjiang open the port, naturally to the goods in and out of Songjiang, as well as the shops opened in Songjiang, the families of famous scholars and officials, are all exempt from tax, if this privilege is still retained in Songjiang Mansion, then the imperial court will do this, it will become a wedding dress for others, why bother.
Tianjin Wei is not exempt from taxes, Songjiang Mansion also handled it accordingly, it is said that this news touches the bottom line of the interests of the civil officials and scholars, and it will cause an uproar, but whether it is the court or the locality, there is no fluctuation and reaction unexpectedly, that is, a few dead-eyed old masters came out to make trouble.
After all, Songjiang Mansion is just a prefecture, and it has nothing to do with the interests of most people, so why bother arguing, and there is one most important reason, this news is to confirm the opening of the port.
The news spread from Jingshi to the world, and it was even much slower than the normal speed of news dissemination, because inside and outside the palace, many bigwigs deliberately hindered the spread of this news, and the fewer people who knew, the sooner they knew, the cheaper it would be.
At present, even the most secure and conservative boss has arranged for people to pass, and the cornucopia is about to be opened, and whoever gets closer will be able to reap more benefits.
Of course, the imperial court also had prior consideration in making such an arrangement in Songjiang Mansion, and there were many rich and noble families in the Jiangnan Prefecture, and ordinary pedestrians walking on the street might be some relatives of the second- and third-rank officials in the court, and if they wanted to exempt the nobles from the privileges of the famous and gentry there, it would inevitably cause a dispute in the court.
But Songjiang Mansion is special, a few years ago Songjiang Mansion was the Xu family's dominance, and the rest of the gentry did not have any room to survive there, the whole house was the world of the Xu family, but the Xu family colluded with pirates to be countered and destroyed overnight, and then the court because of his family's collusion with bandits, and the Songjiang Mansion was cleaned up and down again.
To some extent, Songjiang Mansion is now empty, there are no interest groups there, it is completely a blank sheet of paper, and it is easy to paint it however you want.
Emperor Wanli also sighed after trying to understand this joint, Wang Tong really did things without leakage, and selected Songjiang Mansion, which has all kinds of suitability.
In the palace and in the court, news from all aspects continued to come to Wang Tong's side, and the new eunuch Tian Yi, the eunuch who was in charge of the seal, was indeed not good towards Wang Tong, but he had not yet shown clear hostility.
According to Tian Yi's private chats and his evaluation of Wang Tong on some occasions, they all think that Wang Tong is a traitor with bad morals, and that Wang Tong's actions are against the righteousness of the sages and sages, and lure the Son of Heaven to pay attention to the benefits of money, which will surely corrupt the world and make people's hearts uneasy......
However, Tian Yi does not deny Wang Tong's ability, if the traitor is incompetent, he will not be called a traitor, this is Tian Yi's theory, if Wang Tong and other martial artists do not have the ability to fight and make money, how can they get the trust of Emperor Wanli.
These words reached Wang Tong's ears, and Wang Tong could only smile bitterly, there was no reason to talk to the nerd, just didn't hear it, just be careful.
Of course, Wang Tong also guessed a very deep reason, Tian Yi was in the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal, but his control over the inner court forces was far less than his predecessors, and the situation was very complicated.
Feng Bao has many old subordinates who are still on errands in various yamen in the palace, but Zhang Cheng's subordinates have already caught the real power, and Zou Yi has become the chief eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor, the chief of the East Factory, this is the second person in the inner court, Tian Yi is the head of the inner court, but there are people who are restrained everywhere, and he must be unwilling.
But he couldn't move Zou Yi, not to mention that Zou Yi and Emperor Wanli were closer than him, and there was a Zhao Jinliang as an ally.
What's more, Zou Yi and Zhao Jinliang both have such and such relationships with Wang Tong, although it is a bit awkward to say this in Daming, but Wang Tong, a foreign minister, is indeed the backer of Zou Yi and Zhao Jinliang, two internal officials.
If Tian Yi wants to assert his power, he must fight Zou Yi, and if he wants to fight Zou Yi, he must let Wang Tong fall out of favor, but now this is simply impossible.
At the court meeting that day, Tian Yi was just a little aggressive, and Emperor Wanli warned him with his eyes, which was still Tian Yi taking advantage of the trend.
In fact, what Wang Tong said and did now, including the opening of Songjiang Port, is to add a heavy stroke to his own credit book, the more others say to do, the more they say, the more wrong they are, Wang Tong's side is obviously the other way around, Tian Yi can't find any opportunity, he is helpless.
What's even more embarrassing is that after being aggressive, Tian Yi also asked to come over and beg Wang Tong to come here to assist in the opening of Songjiang......
Mo said that it was Tian Yi, and Emperor Wanli didn't want Wang Tong to interfere in the affairs of Songjiang, but after confirming that Songjiang Mansion was indeed the first choice for opening a port, he had to carry out the next step, and then he found that it was impossible to leave Wang Tong.
In the future, tens of thousands of merchants will be there, the port will definitely be full of sea ships, and there will be a large number of boats, chariots and horses on the rivers and roads.
If you collect more taxes, you will be ruthless, that is, you will be defeated after a short time, and if you collect less taxes, it will go against the original intention of the imperial court.
With so many people and so many goods gathered in Songjiang Mansion, how to settle them, how to plan the shops, where should the warehouses and freight yards be, where the shopkeepers and merchants want to live, and suddenly appear in such a big place, how to solve his food needs, and even how to carry and clean the dirt...... There are many problems, and there are many questions.
Originally, I wanted to use the means of governing the place, but after thinking about it, I found that the method of managing those big cities in the Ming Dynasty may not be suitable for such open ports.
Since it is the opening of the port that Emperor Wanli is so concerned about, it is not possible to deal with it, and if you don't know how to pretend to understand, when there is a mistake and chaos, it will be unlucky to be held accountable.
After thinking about it, I can't care too much, I can only find an experienced person to ask, there is only one person with experience in this world, that is, Dingbei Hou and Jinyiwei are both commanding Wang Tong.
There is nothing to hide in the Jingshi, and most of the people in the Jingshi know about Tian Yi's hostility towards Wang Tong, some people know the specific reason, and some people can guess it.
I know that it is not pleasing to the eye, but I still have to come to the door to ask for advice, which feels really bad, but grievances are one thing, and Emperor Wanli's attention is the greatest, since Tian Yi was arranged to arrest the general matter, it can only be cheeky and smiling.
"....... the flow of people, logistics, and the collection of goods, the first thing is to plan, separate residential and commercial areas, and leave enough space for residential and commercial areas to prepare for future expansion, as well as to prepare for rescue and evacuation in some extraordinary times...... Sewers must be repaired, open ditches and dark ditches must be provided, and special people must be used to clean up the garbage, otherwise, it is the south again, and there are many people, and it is easy to have epidemics......"
"Don't worry about spending money on ......., just let the people who live in the port area pay the fees, but it must be strictly controlled, this little money is easy to be borrowed by people to become a means of collecting money, and no one is going to do it...... It is necessary to prepare more Langzhong, after all, it is easy for people to come from the south to the north, and Langzhong can come in handy when the time comes, and pharmacies and pharmacists can give some preferential tax exemptions......"
"What's your name? How is the name of Shanghai...... Oh, there's already Shanghai County......"
When Tian Yi left Wang Tong's mansion, his expression was very subtle, he was actually a little confused, Wang Tong was not very old, but the city government was very deep, and he was also ruthless and decisive in terms of power and strategy.
What he never expected was that Wang Zhi said everything, and Tian Yi was still wary at first, but he was also an extremely smart character, and he could immediately understand that what Wang Tong said was a good prescription and a good strategy, and then most of the time was in memory, for fear of missing a little, Tian Yi was well-read and memorized, this is not difficult.
āā¦ā¦ The manpower can be selected from all over Tianjin Wei, Wang will not choose, and Tian's father-in-law will handle it by himself......"
Wang Tong also played such a package ticket, if Wang Tong helped to choose people, there was still the possibility of meddling, but when this sentence was said, the posture was undoubtedly full.
However, Tian Yi also understands that even if Wang Tong does not stretch out his hand in picking people, Tianjin Wei will have the shadow of Wang Tong in the iron bucket operated by him.
But Wang Tong's attitude was too enthusiastic, Tian Yi even thought that Wang Tong was really dedicated to the country and had no problem with his attitude, but Tian Yi immediately denied this judgment.
"It's not to say that we make wedding clothes for others, our family's fleet is now large, and the capital of the Sanjiang system is also increasing, and there is such a new place as Songjiang Mansion, which has a lot of benefits for us, not to mention that we have already arranged and arranged in Songjiang Mansion after the incident in the Xu family, and this time the opening of Songjiang Mansion has created momentum, and the interests of all parties have been involved, and it is impossible to stop, but one thing can be determined now, this time the port is opened, we have benefited the most."
Wang Tong said to Yang Sichen, there was nothing to do in the capital division in August, Jinyiwei captured two shopkeepers of Sanjiang Commercial Bank in Henan, they were originally sent to Ningxia to run errands, but they fled privately with the silver, ready to find a place to live happily for a lifetime, but they were soon caught by Jinyiwei.
The upper echelons of the Sanjiang system felt that this was the backbone of the old man, so it was better to let them return the silver taels and handle the errand with the crime, Wang Tong's instructions were very simple:
"Raid the house and kill the head!
