Chapter 337: Transformation (2)
Increasing the tax of merchants, when the income of the treasury is stable, can reduce the tax of the people as appropriate, which is a matter of benefiting the country and the people, but it will damage the interests of those non-commissioned officers and nobles.
They are officials in the court for power, and the way of money depends not only on money, but also on family business, although the status of businessmen is high, but the management is strict, and the taxes are also high, they are naturally not happy, but they must not thunder means?
Of course, this is the core of the plan, but it is not the whole story, in addition to the merchants, the workers and the common people will also be reformed, in addition to the construction of roads, transportation, the construction of schools, maintenance, and the final point, it is the army.
Strengthen the army on the basis of a strong whole country.
The army does not lack military salaries, food, clothing, and food, and a strong army is a strong country, and as for these things such as rebellion after the army is strong, it has nothing to do with this, that is what scheming and imperial art should consider.
When you think about it, where is this plan? This is clearly changing the Xia Dynasty from head to toe.
The crown prince is already a rare strategist among the princes, but what he thinks about most at the moment is how to sit on the throne and handle everything to make himself invincible.
Everything starts with interests, but in the end it is for himself who is selfish, and Shen Jinqiao's copywriting is indeed for the Xia Dynasty, not standing at a height, how can the prince not be amazed?
What is spread out in front of him is not only a cold throne, but a prosperous era waiting to be unfolded, which makes the original intention of the prince to be the emperor begin to change and sublimate.
The prince's surprise surprised Shen Jinqiao a little, but it also seemed reasonable.
"Your Highness can accept it, proving that I really didn't see the wrong person, but I deserve His Highness's praise, these are not my thoughts alone."

Shen Jinqiao sat beside the prince and looked out the window: "How many generations have the Xia Dynasty experienced, and how many generations have the people of the Huo family inherited, the Huo family has withered, and there have been a total of four Taishi, seven second-grade and above court officials, they are officials in the court, and they will also play with power, but there is one thing that remains the same, the will of the Huo family's ancestors to create a prosperous world." ”
"In fact, the Xia Dynasty has been inherited so far, and it has experienced prosperity and decline and resurgence, if His Royal Highness goes to check the existence of the Huo family, he will find that every change in the Xia Dynasty's decree has the figure of the Huo family."
Saying that, Shen Jinqiao made a very undignified action, she bent her legs and hugged her, resting her chin on her knees, her mood was very peaceful, as if she had fallen into her own small world.
"When I was a child, my grandfather liked to lock me in the study, as long as I did something wrong, I was locked in the study, and I had to clean and sort out the Huo family's collection of books, I used to be very noisy, but no one saved me after being locked up, and I could accept it if I had many times."
"The Huo family is a civil official family, and there are many books, but the most precious thing about the Huo family is not those books, but a special grid, which is placed in the books written by the Huo family for generations, with autobiographies, experiences, helplessness, regrets, and complaints, they are like witnesses of these hundreds of years, after reading their books, it seems to see the changes of the times through them."
"For the Huo family, the hegemony of imperial power does not seem to be so attractive, and following a wise emperor to realize his own ideas is what the Huo family wants most, the Huo family is the plotter, the minister born for the emperor."
"It's my grandfather, who is also full of ambitions, but at the beginning he followed the prince, but in the end, the prince was calculated, and he didn't want to follow Emperor Xia, so he retired, in order to keep his family, he also made a lifelong vow, and his talents and learning in this life eventually became the pile of waste paper in the Huo family's study."
Shen Jinqiao tilted his head and looked at the prince: "I am indeed very good at dealing with copywriting, the businessman is what I realized when I took over the dowry of my mother, and the rest are what I see from the ancestors of the Huo family. ”
Rong Junzhi felt that Shen Jinqiao was a little arrogant, there are many officials in the DPRK and China, and it is not that there are no officials who are more national and civil than the Huo family, but everyone knows the problem, and how to solve it is the key.
Coming up with solutions, and integrating all kinds of problems, not just solving one problem, but connecting them into a line, becoming a complete system, this is what she excels at, and this alone has crushed many people.
"Gu was indeed shocked, for the sake of the ancestors of the Huo family and your hard work, I will definitely not let you down."
The Huo family is indeed worthy of respect, but it is too light for him after all, he only cares about the people in front of him.
Shen Jinqiao obviously didn't hear the deep meaning, and she was naturally very satisfied with the prince's determination.
"Although I have written this, I still have to rely on others on how to implement His Highness, after all, this is a matter of the court, and I can only let the businessmen who can talk about it support it, and I have another request."
Shen Jinqiao took out a list: "This is a list of merchants who donated food and materials to the army in the southwest, I once drew a big pie for them, maybe they don't care about the benefits I promised after getting their money back, but I feel that I owe them a favor, so they must have their share of the interests in front of them, and they will definitely be willing to serve His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Although it is to return the favor, it is also to broaden the prince's connections.
These merchants would not have had a chance to enter the prince's sect, but in this way, they would become loose chess in the hands of the prince, and he would definitely be of great use one day.
The strategist, for the purpose, for the power, for the status, for the property, and the other, for the world, for the world, for a prosperous world, for the prosperity of the world, for a thousand years of merit, not for merit, only for a body of ambition and talent to play to the extreme, bow to the end, die without regret!
The prince promised Shen Jinqiao, so naturally he would not break his promise, and these things should be done sooner rather than later, and now is the opportunity.
When there was a war in the northwest, the military salary was urgently needed, and instead of leviing it from the people, it turned to the merchants, and this was the beginning.
It was not enough for the prince to drop the thunder of increasing the commercial tax in the court, he also did something that made everyone more opposed, so that Wei Beiyan, the son of the criminal minister Wei Sheng, was reinstated, and Wei Beiyan was in the household department before, and this time he was directly responsible for the tax.
Wei Beiyan's identity is very controversial, but Wei Beiyan complained to Wei Sheng before, and he had already said that Wei Sheng was not his biological father, and this can still be argued.
Shen Jinqiao heard from the duke that Emperor Xia was also against it, but the prince went once, and Emperor Xia agreed.
Shen Jinqiao: "......"
What did the crown prince do to His Majesty? She gave the prince a planned change, it shouldn't have much impact on the prince, right?
Duke: ...... Oh, the impact is great, I wanted to keep Emperor Xia for a while, but now Emperor Xia is still Emperor Xia, but it's just Emperor Xia.
Shen Jinqiao's plan for the prince is not something that the identity of the prince can control at all, and since the prince has decided, how can he let Emperor Xia come out to block it? Therefore, the first step that the crown prince has to do is to let Emperor Xia no longer interfere.
