Chapter 245 Taxes and State Contributions Not Recognized by the Nationals

It is said that the Empress Lan Qi'er of Loulan has already had the holy decree of the emperor, and the holy decree is mainly under the two departments of the workers and the eighteen hussars, and the second material reserve of the north of Qishan is to reserve materials for the people in the future.

There are many reasons for this, and it cannot be said that the officials of the two ministries did not take it seriously, but first of all, we should talk about the functions of the Ministry of Industry, which involve the supervision of the manufacture of national production tools, the smelting and storage of iron and copper ore and its products, and the manufacture of miscellaneous products of daily life.

Most of the Qishan is not, especially the iron ore is not at all, the officials of the Ministry of Industry have already handed over the purchase list to the hands of the eighteen hussars, the result is not ideal, the iron ore is too heavy on the one hand, not easy to transport, the other is not the national need for a while, the most urgent thing, so in the Han Feng Shang period, the eighteen hussars did not buy it for the first time, and there was no foreign caravan to transport it, resulting in a serious shortage of iron ore.

In addition, the functions of the household department involve the circulation of domestic commodities and taxation, and the household department is in charge of the country's finances.

The peasants planted the land, the product is mainly divided into three parts, one part is self-sufficiency, part of the grain is into the state treasury to fill the land tax, the last part is the formation of trade money, in exchange for living materials, it can be said that the peasants' money left in the year is limited, and even the year is not good, the harvest is not good, sometimes it will be negative income, the peasants' life is already very hard.

Commerce (including handicrafts) is the main responsibility for the circulation of commodities, is the pillar of national tax revenue, businessmen have two aspects of income, on the one hand, after entering Qishan, it is also planted according to the head of the land, is a part of the income, and then there is trade, commercial interests are still possible, for agriculture is considerable, of course, it is necessary to pay more hardship, the rest of the year is necessary, after the tax, there is also a large surplus, which is very certain in a specific historical period, in addition to the war, there is no risk in doing business, buy can sellIn the first few Han armies invaded Qishan, the materials of the merchants were also protected by the army sent by the state, and there was no risk, and the interests of the merchants could be said to be foolproof.

There are still some people in the country are the military and the royal members and ministers, in addition to the officials enjoy the state salary, the ordinary soldiers are not the annual military salary, the specific historical state of the country, the soldiers are to go home to work in the countryside in their spare time, take turns to guard the military affairs, the opening of the Lu is very rare, such as the risk of war is great, the death and injury can be seen.

The members of the royal family are the country's must support, and they are the real providers of the country's taxes, of course, Lan Qier's expenses have been greatly reduced in this dynasty, because the royal family members can be said to be decreasing again and again, and the palace maids and eunuchs are also slowly decreasing.

The ministers and bureaucrats of the court enjoy the state's income, are the providers of the state's taxes, and of course they are also the planners of the state's political deliberations, the people who produce wisdom and ability, but they are the absolute bearers of the state's taxes, and it is so large that the annual balance of each official eunuch is comparable to the annual balance of 100 peasants, and it is a guarantee account!

This is the financial situation of the ancient country of Loulan, the ancient country of Loulan is a small country, the tax and silver on the account of the household is quite limited, especially after entering the Qishan Mountain, built, built various facilities, etc., the flash flood in Qishan has just happened, the war has just been extinguished, the consumption is huge, the treasury has already been emptied, the annual inventory is almost the bottom, the balance is very small, which also leads to the difficulty of the household management of financial expenditure, has to be detailed.

Loulan Empress Lan Qi'er issued a holy decree to the emperor, a large number of reserve materials are based on their own big pattern, which really does not know the current national financial situation, for a time led to the continuous sharp decline of the silver sown by the hussars, and also prompted the reserve materials to not be able to reserve them in time.

Now it's okay, the three heroines negotiated and reconciled for a while, and the Western Regions can be fully traded, and the caravans of various countries have entered the trade area outside Qishan in large numbers driven by interests, and the material transactions of the shop owners can be lived, and the national materials have begun to be greatly enriched again, which is a civil behavior, a non-state reserve material behavior.

The two departments of the Ministry of Workers and Households have responsibilities and missions, materials are to be reserved, when the war is unpredictable, if the war is chaotic, the real people enter the north of Qishan, the national reserve materials are not impossible, and it will be terrible at that time!

The officials of the two ministries of the ministry began to discuss, the imperial decree is the best period of fulfillment, the household officials have to exchange the financial situation with the officials of the Ministry of Industry, the imperial decree can not be violated, the two officials decided to play in the court, the state reserves of materials, is the state act, and ultimately for the people, the treasury is empty, and the reserve materials can only rely on the people to reserve together, rely on taxes, and rely on national donations.

The court meeting of the new day of the ancient kingdom of Loulan began, and the officials of the two ministries of the workers and households jointly played a recital, and the empress Lan Qier heard the recital of the two officials in the court, and only then did she know the true situation of the treasury, and only then did she know that the country's annual tax revenue could only maintain the basic operation of the country for a while.

The Han Dynasty launched a war, the burning of the city and natural disasters caused such a serious harm to the country in the later period, the heart has been thinking about preparing for the survival and reproduction of the people in the future, the original treasury has been weak, and it is a drop in the bucket to do the best for a while, it seems that the strength of the people is really gathered, in order to prepare for the survival of the people in the future. Lan Qi'er did not carefully study the directionality of relying on tax and state donations in the court, so she allowed to play, and of course, how to increase taxes and state donations was also delegated to the officials of the two ministries of workers and households.

Of course, the officials of the two ministries of workers and households sometimes did not report the income of the people to the court and Lan Qi'er!

The court meeting of the ancient kingdom of Loulan can be over, and the officials of the two ministries of the workers and households can draw up the view and distribute it to various places, and for a time the main prosperous places in the city have been posted, and the Sa and Qiangyi tribes have also been conveyed by the court officials of various ethnic groups.

As soon as the list was issued, the details of the tax provisions could be mainly aimed at the shop owners and the people in Qishan, the state donation was mainly for the common people and the peasant households and the two different races, the tax should be aimed at the shop owners, the court officials could be excluded, and all the official eunuchs in the six ministries were not within the scope of taxes and state donations.

The people, merchants, peasants and two aliens can be fried, and suddenly issued such a tax list, which shows that the tax matters are very clear and clear, can be understood by the people and merchants, and is to prepare for the future of the people, which is understandable, but this tax is to make the merchants and the people have objections.
