Sometimes, "one size fits all" seems reasonable, but in fact it is the biggest inequality.

How could Fu Lingchuan not know that taxation is the lifeblood of a country? However, in the early days of the establishment of the mainland countries, the commercial tax and the agricultural and industrial tax were basically equal, and this was a common practice. He frowned and said, "In the king's opinion?"

"Ten taxes one. "Generally speaking, if the merchant trades in these cities for ten copper plates, he must hand over one copper plate to the tax collector. Thirty taxes are converted together.

That's a two-fold increase. Fu Lingchuan boasted that she was a ruthless person, but she didn't expect her to open her mouth like a lion, and she was also taken aback when she heard this: "Ten taxes and one tax! You are not afraid of scaring the businessmen away." ”

Feng Miaojun asked him with a smile: "Even if we implement thirty taxes and one, will the Tiger City disappear?"

"No, it won't. Fu Lingchuan can also affirm this.

"Ah, even if we reduce the tax to forty or fifty, many merchants will still go to the Tiger Market to trade, unless we are all exempt from taxes. She shrugged, "It's people who want to take advantage." ”

Tax exemption is not possible for the official, and the cost of every day is laid there. Fu Lingchuan said in a deep voice: "I know, but the ten taxes are too high, and the merchants who enter the city will also be pushed to the Tiger Market." ”

"Hear me out first. Feng Miaojun gently tapped the low table in front of him, "This tax rate sounds a little scary, but we allow businessmen to deduct taxes." ”

"What do you say?" Fu Lingchuan immediately became interested. Collecting taxes is collecting taxes, and every document collected is from the official family, and it has to go into the treasury, and I haven't heard that it can be offset. This is also thanks to him, and when the old scholars of the royal court heard her amazing words, Bao Zhun knelt down and shouted "The king must not" without listening to the content.

"Although ten taxes are levied, these caravans can offset a part of the tax amount when they eat, fight, stay in restaurants, and play in the four cities of Mida. The larger the expense, the higher the tax credit. Feng Miaojun smiled, revealing his teeth like a rhinoceros, "In addition, you might as well set up a government-run sales fair in Mituo City at regular intervals, with a small auction in three days and a big auction in five days, and the lots range from rare to large quantities of goods in demand." The sales fee charged by Luofu Yudang is 12 percent, and we can stipulate that as long as the merchant pays 800 taels of silver in the four cities of Mida, the sales fee will be reduced to 8 percent. ”

She leaned forward slightly: "Eating and living in Mida City is more than ten times better than Tiger City, not to mention the environment and security." A shrewd person like Xu Linghai would capsize in the gutter and almost be robbed, and other caravans would inevitably encounter this kind of trouble. "No one charges, no one manages, of course, personal safety is not guaranteed, and the quality of service cannot keep up. This is the original sin of "free".

"Although the commercial tax in Mituo City is expensive, for the regular caravans, don't they want to be worry-free and safe when they go out? There are officials in Mituo City as the medium, and until a business is concluded, neither the buyer nor the seller knows the identity of the other party, so isn't this the safest? Not to mention that people have to eat and sleep, how can they not be happy to use these instinctive activities to deduct taxes?"

"It's human nature to be cheap, and there are always businessmen who are reluctant to pay for it, so places like Tiger Market will always exist. Feng Miaojun shrugged his shoulders, "But after the comparison between the two sides, most people will move to Mida City." "It's like piracy is banned, but the number of genuine users is increasing, and the competition is nothing more than service, interaction and security.

It's cheap and not good, let alone money.

The more Fu Lingchuan listened, the brighter his eyes became, and he only felt interesting at first hearing, but later he felt more reasonable, and couldn't help but clapped his hands and said: "Yes, people love to take advantage, thinking that more is more saving, and more saving is more money." In order to deduct the tax amount, they will spend more in Mida City!" The money that could have been spent or not spent has to be spent before it is willing. In this way, it has also directly driven the consumer economy of the four cities of Mida.

Feng Miaojun took a light breath: "I'm worried, this will increase the accounting work greatly, I don't know if we have so many talents?"

Fu Lingchuan couldn't help but let out a long laugh: "You don't have to worry about this. There are many merchants in the southern Tu Yu country, and they are the most calculating, so we can hire some from there. In another five or six years, we will not lack this kind of talent. ”

To the south of the Chiji Forest, there are still many small states and sectarian forces active at the junction of the three kingdoms of Yao, Jin, and Xinxia. This is why the location of the four cities of Mida is particularly important – they are the most important hub for the region's interconnection.

Feng Miaojun said seriously: "This method is just an idea, and there are still many rules that need to be refined, such as how to prevent tax fraud." If the cousin also thinks it is feasible, he will have to bother with the courtiers to improve it next. She didn't pause, "The first few sales fairs can take some rare treasures out and sell, and the transaction price must be low, so you might as well take them from the treasure house left by Anxia." When this news spreads as the merchants travel far and wide, there will be more and more people who come to Mituo City in the future. Do you remember the pomp and circumstance of Luofu? Many dignitaries were not just passing by. ”

Fu Lingchuan stood up suddenly, cleaned up his clothes, and then bowed to her to the end: "Wang Shangming, I will go back to draft the law." ”

It was the first time he had saluted her. Feng Miaojun smiled, accepted it calmly, and saw his figure disappear in a hurry, and then returned to his dormitory.

Fu Lingchuan's action was amazing, and the next day, the court came up with a fairly complete method for the ministers to deliberate.

Tax refunds were common in her original world, but they were a big brain-opener for people at the time. The discussion in the royal court was very cheerful, and Feng Miaojun occasionally spoke up, but he was able to hit the nail on the head, contrary to the silence of the court discussion a few days ago.

A shrewd courtier immediately saw that something was wrong.

Fu Lingchuan performed strongly, so the tax law was quickly passed and implemented. At this time, a whole year has passed since the founding of the New Xia Dynasty, all industries have been restored, and the people have gradually settled down. After Fu Lingchuan was canonized as a national teacher, he began to take charge of the country's luck, and at this time, he divided a large part of the Yuan Li to reconcile the time and place to promote a bumper harvest.

A year ago, a large number of displaced people moved eastward, and in addition to organizing farming and cultivating wasteland to promote business, Xinxia also built a large number of construction projects, built roads, water conservancy and other infrastructure, and made use of manpower to eliminate hidden social dangers.

Feng Miaojun is also very admirable after seeing Fu Lingchuan's governance methods, what this person is best at is being orderly, and he can sort out all the laws and orders in an orderly manner.

What she lacks most is this kind of patience to fight to the end.

Fortunately, God has also been very appreciative in the past year, with abundant rain throughout the year and no natural disasters, so the new summer at this time is like a newborn seedling growing strongly, and the most intuitive embodiment is that there are more and more yuan power contained in the small tripod in Fu Lingchuan's hand.
