757. Tax evasion
When Jingwen was helping Ma Zhou formulate a new commercial tax standard in Mengjin County, someone suddenly came over and shouted: "Lord Jingwen, Lord Ma Zhou, someone wants to evade taxes!" ”
"Huh? Someone evades taxes? Outrageous! Ma Zhou shouted.
This commercial tax is related to whether you can mortgage and guarantee the loan from the bank, and it is obvious that there are people who evade taxes, so of course they must be severely cracked down. If everyone evades taxes, it will inevitably hit Mengjin County's business tax, and then it won't be long before the business tax revenue falls on a large scale, and then it will not even be able to repay the loan. Therefore, how much commercial tax can be collected during this period represents how much loan he can take in the future, so Ma Zhou is very concerned about who evades taxes. We must crack down such tax evaders, otherwise no one will dare to evade taxes.
Soon, Jingwen and Ma Zhou were brought to the market by the tax collectors, and then they were ready to see some sand ready to be traded. And Jingwen didn't see any difference in the sand for a while, and the tax collectors immediately took the initiative to explain.
"Lord Jingwen, Lord Ma Zhou, you see that these look no different from sand, they are all packed in the same bag. However, according to some information given to us by Lord Jingwen, we know how heavy a bag of sand or various things should be. We put it on the scale and weighed it, and found that the weight was a little wrong. Then, let's do a second check! The tax collector said.
And Jingwen smiled, in fact, it was just some knowledge about density. Because Jingwen also probably knew some methods of smuggling and tax evasion from later generations, and the main means in ancient times was entrainment. The so-called entrainment, that is, in some cheap goods, there are some high-value things. In this case, many tax collectors will think that it is cheap goods, so they will be charged according to the value of the cheap goods. However, the goods that are really valuable inside will also evade taxes.
Moreover, a lot of people use some small particles as a cover. For example, rice and sand, they put some sand or rice in a rice bag or a mud bag, and then put something of high value in the middle, and then fill it with some sediment again, so that it obviously looks like a sandbag. And Jingwen also has some preliminary prevention methods for this. That is to measure according to the specific gravity density of the item to see if there is a problem. The procedure estimates the density of sediment or rice, measures the specific gravity and density of a bag of rice, and then stacks the bags of rice or sand, and then measures their length, width and height with a ruler. If you find a problem with the density of these rice and sand. For example, if it is obviously heavy, and it is obviously light, then I am afraid that they may be carrying something different from the specific gravity density of rice and sand, so it should be carefully checked.
Therefore, this is an important method to prevent tax evasion and smuggling in ancient times, and it is still relatively useful. And it was the first time for these tax collectors to see that Jing Wen actually had this method, and they were immediately surprised by Jing Wen. Jingwen is actually more proficient than these old tax collectors, no wonder people can be high-ranking officials!
"Hehe, I just haven't returned all my physics knowledge in middle school to the teacher!" Jingwen said with some shame.
This specific gravity density table. In fact, Jing Wen still roughly remembered it in his mind, and even if he didn't remember it, he could measure it temporarily. And now, a tax evasion was quickly discovered.
"Next, we move on to the second part of the test. We didn't open the bag directly. After all, if we follow the first method, we may be able to measure whether there is entrainment. However, it is not possible to speculate what kind of thing it is, so we immediately followed the method of Lord Jingwen and used dogs to further detect it. And according to our directory of luxury goods. There are highly distilled spirits in it, as well as related perfumes, all of which have an odor. Follow the instructions of Lord Jingwen. We went to hire some dog trainers, and they quickly trained the dogs, and the aroma of the perfume and the aroma of the wine were clearly detected, and we soon found out that there was some peculiar smell. This guy should have brought some perfume and alcohol. The tax collector said.
This is checked by a dog, and Jingwen obtained it based on the experience of later generations. Isn't there often any anti-drug and smuggling dogs in later generations, so Jingwen also asked people to find some people who have a lot of experience in dog training, specifically to train dogs, and then you can check whether there are anything with a strong smell in those various items, so that you can also find out whether there is a smell of high-intensity alcohol or perfume.
"Open it!" Jingwen said.
Soon, the tax collectors opened a so-called "sandbag", and the inside and outside were indeed a layer of sand. But when the sand was removed, a bottle of perfume in a metal bottle was revealed. As soon as Jingwen saw this perfume, he knew that it was a mid-range perfume produced in his perfume workshop. Although this perfume is mid-range, it is also expensive, and it costs more than a dozen yuan a bottle, and a bottle is only 50 milliliters. The bottle was apparently used to put it in a sandbag and then prepared to evade taxes in the name of sand.
According to the policy of Mengjin County, the tax rebate policy is adopted for the trade of sand and gravel building materials, which is to build a river embankment as a building material reserve in the near future. Therefore, these guys don't even want to pay any taxes, and directly use sand and gravel to cover, so that they can not only trade perfumes, but also enjoy the tax refund policy, which is simply fucking crazy.
"Nima, this kind of tax evasion, must be severely cracked down. I still use the products I produce to evade taxes, I definitely want to check, see who is the buyer, I definitely want to cut off the transaction relationship with him who ordered it, and I will not cooperate with him in any cooperation in the future. Jingwen said.
Jingwen is now an official after all, and of course he hates this kind of guy who evades taxes. Because Jingwen thinks that he has left enough profit margin for those businessmen, but they still evade taxes, which is simply ruining the reputation of his perfume, of course this must be cracked down.
"Who is this guy who evades taxes, I'm going to meet him, I'm going to cancel his purchase of perfume, and even my purchase qualification for all industries!" Jing Wen said viciously, obviously very angry. (To be continued......)
