Chapter 454 Capital Trend (Thanks to "Miao Meow" for rewarding 1000+, plus a more chapter)
A month later, the capital.
"What do you say, what skateboarding? What is skateboarding? ”
was shopping with his friends, but as soon as he heard that the "Entertainment Pavilion" had launched a new event, his friends pulled him straight to that side, and he was very excited.
He was a little confused: he hadn't returned for more than a month, why did he not know the direction of the wind in the capital at all?
"Hahahaha...... I forgot you went out before. My friend hurriedly introduced the skateboard, Balabala.
It turned out that this thing was made by Liao Wenxuan and Shi Lihui, the two major "wastes" in Beijing.
When they first came out, everyone laughed at them, they must have been playthings and they were tossing around.
Unexpectedly, they got angry and invited the man to a "speed race" - no living creatures such as cows and horses, only a tool, to see who could reach the finish line first.
So, Liao Wenxuan and Shi Lihui, who had skateboards, were in the limelight and defeated all competitors.
Immediately afterwards, Liao Wenxuan and Shi Lihui took advantage of this hot wind to sell the first batch of skateboards to these sons and brothers who had spare money, setting off a skateboarding craze.
"What, want to fight? If you have the ability, we'll see you on the field! ”
"I'm afraid of you? Race on the race! ”
I didn't like each other, what kind of fight, I made an appointment directly with the venue, and I brought a skateboard to compete. will not be beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and will be caught by the elders in the family, and punished for a while; At the same time, you can also let out a bad breath in your heart, how refreshing.
Liao Wenxuan and Shi Lihui took advantage of the fact that most of the people were not familiar with the book, and directly "made an appointment" with all the people who had offended the two.
Everyone: "......"
- Damn, I won't!
said no, and would be ridiculed by Liao Wenxuan and Shi Lihui: "Tut-tut...... I thought it was amazing, I didn't even know how to skateboard, I have the ability, let's race one. ”
You won't, that's if you don't have a face, so gliding thing, you can't?!
Slap in the face!
A proper slap in the face!
Arrogant son-in-law, which one is convinced?
If you are not convinced, you will place an order, and the official brand will produce it, and the others are all "fakes".
Yes, that's right, when Yang Xiangwei was planning, she also erected this "brand" concept, and directly found the household department, and she had to get a "Wei brand".
"What are you doing?"
"My lord, of course you have to get it, if you don't get it, how will you collect taxes in the future?" Yang Xiangwei Balabala explained the tax system.
He said very simply, the common people who farm the land are only how much, and you can't collect much money in your lifetime; But businessmen are different, just a few rich businessmen, the more he earns, the more taxes you collect, and the richer the finances......
Simple reason, understand?
Yang Xiangwei's "Wei Zihao" is actually a "business license" approved by the government, and only with this thing can it be "legally operated" and protected by the government.
Of course, the government also collects business taxes on this - don't look at it as a small percent, but the more merchants earn, the more taxes you receive?
Different taxes can also be levied on different products.
In addition, Yang Xiangwei also set up an "invention patent", which was invented and created by him, and only his "Wei Zihao" product is genuine, and the others are fake.
Fakes, officials are not allowed.
Of course, if you want to produce this kind of patented product, it is not impossible to go to the government to register and bid.
Whoever gets the "standard" will be able to have the right to produce this patented product. Of course, for the household department, there are benefits to doing all this:
1. Those who come to bid need a "legal" identity, so will you be able to find out the identity of the businessman? And this status is to prepare for the next year's tax collection.
2. Businessmen need to pay taxes + royalties when they use other people's patented products. The tax is given to the state, and the patent fee is given to Yang Xiangwei, that is, the inventor of the patent.
Royalties can be bought out in a lump sum or paid in installments.
But no matter what it is, as long as she goes to the government, Yang Xiangwei, the person who gains from the benefits, still has to pay taxes before she can transfer it to her private account.
That is, the household department collected the "tax" twice at once - because there were two different objects.
As soon as this account was settled, Hubu Shangshu's eyes widened: Damn! Can it be like this?!
I feel that this money is like picking it up for nothing.
I was both surprised and delighted, and without saying a word, I wrote a good note and reported it to the old emperor.
In the first month of the trial operation of "Weizihao", 10,000 taels of tax silver were directly handed over to the household. Although it is only 10,000 taels, it is not good to give the household book.
"Your Majesty, this is 10,000 taels, and this is still the first ......month," he said excitedly, "There are twelve months in a year, and there must be 120,000 taels of silver in that year." This is only Weizi's, if all the merchants of the world are included......"
There are so many businessmen in the world.
Just a few more, a million taels of tax silver, that's just proper.
The old emperor was also shocked: "Really so many?!" ”
In previous years, the kind of land tax, poll tax, etc., collected by the household department, added up to only a few million taels, and I don't think that a small businessman can hold up to the thirty-first of the dawn of the world.
Hubu Shangshu nodded, and said with a serious face: "Back to Your Majesty, yes, there are so many, this is last month's tax bill, Your Majesty can check it." ”
When the old emperor looked at this list, he found: "Huh? Your bookkeeping method seems to be different from previous years? ”
"This is the bookkeeping method on the Wei side of the number, and the minister thinks it is easy to use, so he asked the people in the household department to learn it......"
"This Wei Zi is really talented, haven't you thought about digging one or two?"
"Uh......" Hubu Shangshu was a little embarrassed, but he could only tell the old emperor about the situation of Wei Zihao.
It turned out that the main person in charge of Weizi was the two famous second ancestors in Beijing, and even the old emperor had heard of it. For this reason, he also spoke.
It's just that Liao Wenxuan trained his uncle who was an official; As for Shi Lihui, the training is that he married the prince of his own sister.
It is difficult to say clearly in the book of the household, so he can only point to the kinship of the two sons.
Old Emperor: "......"
- Dare to be affectionate, I also have a time to look away?
Without waiting for the old emperor to speak, Hubu Shangshu hurriedly said again, although Liao Wenxuan and Shi Lihui are the actual operators, but it is the other one who really comes up with the idea and makes the decision.
"Is it Him?!" The old emperor was very surprised, "Isn't he in the Ministry of Works, I remember that he also invented movable type printing books before...... So this skateboard was also made by him? No wonder, he has a nimble brain, and it is said that he has some eyebrows in papermaking now, and the rest is only a matter of time. If he invented something, it wouldn't be surprising. ”
It's just that the old emperor didn't expect that in addition to being proficient in invention and creation, this kid also has a unique insight into government affairs.
Suddenly, I felt that it was a pity to throw a good talent in the Ministry of Industry.
After Hubu Shangshu left, the old emperor thought about it and called Prime Minister Wei Ang over: This kid is the righteous brother of Qing Guifei, which is about the same as Prime Minister Wei's righteous son, and he should know more about this son's situation......
Completely ignorant of the Prime Minister's madness: "......"
- What did you do again?!
- Your Majesty, can the minister say that the minister knows nothing?
