Chapter 435: The Merchant (2)

The note said that a merchant who arrived in Yangzhou to buy and sell all taxes was settled according to 30%, that is, calculated according to 30% of the selling price, and the other qiē taxes were nothing.

Just such a thing directly made the two of them want to stop, because for the tax of merchants, it is simply sky-high!

Why do you say that, because businessmen have no status, let's take Jingzhou as an example, although the Jingzhou Pastoral Mansion in Jingzhou does not say how much the commercial tax in Jingzhou is, but this not only means that you don't have to pay taxes, because if you don't pay taxes, then what do officials of all sizes in Jingzhou eat.

Where is this tax? It's in all kinds of levels and all kinds of filial piety.

Liang Fatzi and Wu De have shops all over Jingzhou, and they also use granaries, which are not only for the convenience of collecting grain, but also to avoid taxes at some checkpoints, just like Xiangyang, the largest in Jingzhou, your grain and grass are sent to the granary that you want to enter the city and then enter your own home, you have to hand over three layers of grain, which is the cost of passing through the door, plus in addition to the three percent handed over to Xiangyang Mansion, there is also filial piety to the captains of the city gate, this is another layer, because if you don't give it, Then people casually say that you are hiding the remnants of the Yellow Turban or a murderer, so do you still want to do this business?

After that, there are the backers in the city, and those backers also have to get a layer, for example, Liang Fatzi has a middle-level official in the Xiangyang Guard in this Xiangyang City, which is also to be honored.

This is plus some information costs for collecting grain and grass, and there are other ten layers of profits. If Liang Fatzi can get about forty percent, then it is really Amitabha, even if it is a bumper harvest this year, more often he can only get thirty percent.

And now Liu Mang deducts a qiē city gate tax or something. As long as the government collects 30% of the tax, as long as you take out the official receipt that has been paid, then all the city gates are unimpeded, of course, there are still routine inspections. If someone collects the gate tax, you can submit it to the local government to appeal, and if the local government covers up, you can report it to a higher level.

In this way, after deducting the cost of the road or something, the merchant can earn sixty percent. It's definitely a pretty high harvest, so these two will be shocked.

This is the first one, and the more shocking is yet to come. The second article after this, a businessman who moves his property to Yangzhou will be exempted from taxes for three years.

Tax-free! That is, you have earned a real deal, and you don't have to be deducted by the government. As before, if someone comes to find fault. You can also go to the government to report it.

You don't have to pay a penny for teaching for three years, this is possible! Liang Fatzi and Wu De looked at Jia Xu on the side suspiciously.

Jia Xu nodded, reassuring the two, what the two were worried about was nothing more than this Yangzhou going back on their word, but Liu Mang vouched for his personality that he wouldn't, because as long as you put the industry there, then for Yangzhou, a place where everything is in ruins, it is a thing that can make money. It's just that you're exempt from paying taxes for three years, if you don't run well. It's over in three years, then Liu Mang won't give you much to worry about, the big loss is you, if you run well, you will definitely take root in Yangzhou, then three years, five years, or even ten years, it's just that you're exempted from paying taxes for three years, you have to pay most of the time, you make a lot of money, and Yangzhou also earns.

The third is a qiē brushed other businessmen to Yangzhou to do business exempt from half a year's tax burden, the more businessmen you bring to introduce, then the more taxes you are exempted, of course, this is equivalent to the same scale of businessmen, not you a big businessman with a large group of small businessmen to give you exemption, naturally this can also be superimposed, as long as these small businessmen add up to the same net worth as your big businessman, then you can also be exempted from half a year's tax burden.

Liang Fatzi on the side is already planning, if he arrives in Yangzhou to do business, he will take those who are also businessmen, this Jingzhou prohibits the transportation of this grain, but does not prohibit other things, because it can't be forbidden, and this Jingzhou can be so prosperous because of those businessmen.

Article 4 Official and Commercial System! For example, Liu Mang is ready to sell cement, so that people in other places in Yangzhou such as Lujiang can also use cement to build houses, and use cement to do other things, such as dams and canals, these are all sales, Liu Mang needs people with businessmen to operate, and bring money to Yangzhou.

There are also some weapons and the like that also need to be negotiated by the government and businessmen, and the weapons are built by the weapons shop and the government comes to buy them, and the price of them also needs to be negotiated.

"Isn't that difficult for a strong man!" Liang Fatzi listened to Wu De reading this system of officials and businessmen, and the following is explaining, if you want to do this official business, then you can't do other businesses, that is, you have to sell all your businesses, you can't touch these sales, you can only do the business that Yangzhou Government gives you, so as not to use your power for personal gain.

It's okay to be like some small businessmen, but how can a big businessman like them be willing to do it.

"Huh! If you can give up one thing, there must be another better one behind! Jia Xu said with a smile as he drank tea.

On the side, Wu De continued to read the following things: "Officials and businessmen are regarded as scholars, and they report to their official positions, and if their performance is outstanding, they will be rewarded with knighthoods!" ”

"Knighthood! Scholars! Suddenly, the eyes of the two lit up, they worked hard to change their identities and become scholars, and now there is one more title, and the merchant can get the title? This is simply unimaginable, the person who gets the title of a businessman above this history is a person, and that person is called Lu Buwei! ‘

This person is a businessman seeking the country, Lü Buwei is a big businessman in Yangzhai, he travels to and fro, buys at a low price, sells at a high price, so he accumulates a family property of a thousand gold, mourns the death of the prince in Wei, and transports it back to China to be buried in Zhiyang. In the forty-second year of King Zhao, he made his second son An Guojun the crown prince. And An Guojun has more than 20 sons. An Guojun has a very favorite concubine, and she is called Mrs. Huayang. Mrs. Huayang has no sons. An Guojun has a middle-ranked son named Zichu, and Zichu's mother is called Xia Ji, who is not favored. Zichu was sent to Zhao as a hostage of Qin. The State of Qin attacked the State of Zhao many times, and the State of Zhao did not treat Zichu with courtesy. Zichu is the grandson of the prince of Qin, who was a hostage in the Zhao State, and his carriages and horses and daily financial resources were not rich, and his life was embarrassing and very unhappy. Lü Buwei went to Handan to do business, and when he saw Zichu, he liked it very much, and said: "Zichu is like a strange thing, you can hoard it." Waiting to be sold at a high price"

That's how Odd Goods Come About! After that, Lü Buwei assisted Zichu and served as the prime minister of Qin, and then his Lü Spring and Autumn Period was also read by everyone, and he even modified a word, a word of gold.

Such a character is really a marquis and a knight, and he has become a scholar with a title, and how many Lu Buwei can there be in this world! It's more of a lowly businessman like them.

And Liu Mang now gave them hope, the official businessman, if he becomes an official businessman, that is, the scholar family, then it is possible to have a knighthood, and he will really ascend to the palace, instead of the lowest level of this kind of scholar and farmer.

"I don't know what this official and businessman wants?!" Liang Fat felt his lips crack, he licked his lips, and breathed heavily.

"Hehe, now that the two of you are under the command of the lord, isn't it equivalent to an official businessman doing things for Yangzhou!" Jia Xu said with a smile at the two,

"Ahhhh Wu De and Liang Fatzi couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly, they are now officials and businessmen?

"Of course, you are only officials and businessmen now, but you are not a scholar and have no title, this qiē depends on your appearance!" Jia Xu said to the two of them, it is impossible to directly satisfy these two people, only a hungry dog will really bite people for the owner and go to the door to guard the house.

"We will definitely not live up to the trust of the lord!" Liang Fatzi and Wu De are full of motivation, this person naturally has motivation when he has hope, and now when he hears Jia Xu say this, both of them have burst out with enough motivation.

There is one last one thing left, and that is the guild.

Liu Mang asked these businessmen to form a chamber of commerce, which is the representative of various big businessmen and small businessmen, and the leaders of these chambers of commerce can have the right to meet Liu Mang directly, he can state the needs of businessmen to Liu Mang, and he can also say some businessmen's obligations like Liu Mang, and even help other businessmen to defend their rights. Naturally, the president of this chamber of commerce cannot be for life, and it needs to be elected by these businessmen for a maximum of two consecutive terms.

Liu Mang's low position to the merchant is really a big promotion, basically it is not a farmer and a businessman, but even a merchant may become a scholar.

"By the way, the lord also spoke, as soon as the businessmen put the industry in Yangzhou, their children can enter the Yangzhou Mansion School, and get the teaching of the Confucianism in the Mansion School, and the future businessman or career will be determined by the assessment!" Jia Xu threw a bombshell again.

These businessmen have no status because their children are not allowed to enter the academy to study, the official school does not accept them, and they can only find some private gentlemen, but they can't get into the official career after studying, even some peasants or workers can enter the official school, but the businessman just can't.

And now Liu Mang has opened this opening, the children of businessmen are not allowed to enter the official school, but their businessmen in Yangzhou can, as long as the industry is in Yangzhou, they can let the children enter the official school. When this news is released, it will definitely make the entire Jingzhou! No! It should be that the whole world is boiling! (To be continued......)
