Wang Hanlan has never contacted the people in the secret, and they can't make a move, if the matter is revealed and involves him, then all the work will be wasted. With his current strength, he is simply meat on the old emperor's chopping board.

This Tan Che is the biggest loophole in the plan, and Liang is the one who destroys the chess. If these two people don't die, I'm afraid they will become an obstacle to him.

However, these two obstacles were protected by the old emperor, although the purpose was to monitor and control them, but he had nowhere to do it.

After leaving Kyoto and arriving at Jinan Mansion, Qi Yuan felt a lot more relaxed. In Kyoto, the world of Heavenly Dao is eager to kick her out.

Now that she has no luck suppression, it is estimated that with Xu Yin's aura of the heroine who was not good at that time, she will soon go to Kyoto again.

Originally, she didn't want to earn merit, but this Heavenly Dao had to let her gather wool.

"Lord Liang has worked hard all the way, and Xia Guan has prepared a place to live." The governor of Jinan Prefecture waited for Qi Yuan with officials, but he was also tired.

Qi Yuan smiled, "There is Lord Lao Zhizhou." ”

Zhizhou introduced a group of officials, and after a polite conversation with them, Qi Yuan returned to his residence.

A small courtyard but close to the yamen, but also convenient.

The situation in Jinan Mansion is indeed clear and honest as Emperor Zhou Yuan said, and the officials are also very cooperative with Qi Yuan's tax reform.

A young man who has just passed the crown for less than two years can be so valued by His Majesty, and it is impossible to be incapable. Moreover, tax reform is not a trivial matter, and Emperor Zhou Yuan cannot be completely assured.

There must be eyes and ears in the dark, if they think that the emperor is far away, it is stupid, it is estimated that their actions today will already be on His Majesty's desk tomorrow.

Emperor Zhou Yuan attaches so much importance to this tax reform, how dare they cause trouble? No one is afraid of longevity.

With such scruples, Qi Yuan has been particularly smooth in Jinan Mansion, and the commercial development and taxation of Jinan Mansion in recent years have been placed on his table as soon as Qi Yuan took office.

Even Emperor Zhou Yuan's holy decree just in case didn't need to be taken out.

Qi Yuan flipped through the sorted taxes and made it a lot easier, and Jinan Mansion was also a relatively prosperous prefecture in the Great Zhou Dynasty, with many merchants from the north and south.

However, with the development of commerce, the tax revenue of Jinan has not changed much for several years, and there is even a tendency to decline.

Merchants made money and made more and more profits, but the taxes were not obviously targeted, so that merchants who had money but no land to spend began to be willing to buy land.

Land annexation, Qi Yuan's first reaction was like this, this is an omen.

The development of the Great Zhou Dynasty had its own world trend, and although the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce had been improving, the development of commerce had made progress when the situation stabilized.

Setting up a reasonable commercial tax is a good means to manage business within a reasonable range, and it can also add a large amount of tax to Dazhou, as long as it is done properly, it will be a reform of far-reaching significance.

After Qi Yuan looked at those policy accounts, he went to various counties to observe the business situation.

Qi Yuan has been walking around Jinan Mansion for most of the year, which makes the magistrates of various places tremble. It's obviously a chaplain who came to tax reform, but he looks like an official on patrol.

They were afraid that they would be caught by the people who secretly followed Qi Yuan, so it would really be straight to the sky, and the official career would end here.

"Lord Liang is back." Zhizhou looked at Qi Yuan, who was in the mansion, and said hello.

Qi Yuan nodded and put down the pen, and Qi Yuan made some minor adjustments according to the actual situation.

"Lord Zhizhou, this is a proposed commercial tax policy, if you don't have any opinions, you can start the trial."

Zhizhou laughed from the bottom of his heart when he heard Qi Yuan's words, as long as this adult didn't wander around. Although he is confident that there is nothing major in Jinan Mansion, if something reaches His Majesty's ears, he will not have a good impression of him.

The commercial tax trial can be put in Jinan Mansion, which shows that His Majesty still has an impression of him, and he still wants to be promoted back to Beijing. If a moth falls short, he doesn't even cry.

"No opinion, no opinion. I'll ask the people from the yamen to post it tomorrow and publish it to the counties. Zhizhou smiled brightly, and what he said was not reluctant at all.

Qi Yuan handed over the decree in his hand to Zhizhou, and then went back to his house to rest.

Qi Yuan came to Jinan Mansion in the spring and summer, and most of the year has passed, and this decree is just in time for the new year. At this time, it was promulgated for a trial period of one year to see the results.

Early the next morning, a new decree was posted outside the yamen.

When the Jinan government came, the news that the Qin mission said that the tax reform was going to be known to everyone for a long time. Therefore, as soon as the decree was announced, the number of people at the yamen gradually increased.

"Lao Litou, you are literate, tell us what is written on it, are you going to raise taxes for us?"

"Yes, yes, this will not require a tax increase, if this tax is raised, even if the harvest is good, we are afraid that we will not be able to support it."

Many of the onlookers were farmers, who only knew that it was a tax reform, but they didn't know what the tax was, and they were afraid that they would not be able to support their families because they were afraid that the imperial court would raise taxes, so they were a little worried.

"Don't worry, it says that the tax will be raised, but it is not to collect taxes from farmers, but to collect taxes from those merchants.

The government gave merchants the right to do business, and merchants had to pay taxes to the imperial court. Merchants with government qualifications can have some convenience, but this tax is much higher than ours. Lao Li explained with a white beard.

"Is there less convenience for those merchants? Profiteers, just don't add our taxes, those businessmen are so rich that they don't make any money? It's time to give them a scrape of oil. ”

"If this tax is good, they should pay it too."

After learning about the content of the tax, there are many such voices in the crowd.

And the same news can be happy or sad for those businessmen.

These big businessmen all looked sad together, sighing.

"These people who go south and north are all taking their lives to earn money, and this tax is so high, why don't you let us live?"

"I heard that this tax was raised by the new champion, and the emperor was happy and sent someone to us for a trial, isn't this making fun of us?"

Businessmen, you don't agree with every word you say, you say it with every word.

"You don't have to be so pessimistic, although this tax is high, the convenience of the government is not small. If you become an official businessman, you may be able to do other business. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the person who spoke with some surprise, other businesses, salt and iron in the hands of the government, those are the industries that are suddenly rich.

What can the imperial court do for such an industry? In broad daylight, I really dreamed.

"Even if you can't do it, it's better for officials and businessmen to protect it than we have now, besides, I thought about it for a while, the imperial court is determined to reform the tax this time, I can listen to my relatives in the yamen, and the Qincha tax reform plan can write that the third generation of officials and businessmen can participate in the imperial examination."
