The next morning, Jiao Ming's dark circles became heavier, Xia Feng cared a few words, and Jiao Ming passed perfunctorily. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info After breakfast, the old door board reported that Liu Ba was coming, and he was waiting in the back cowshed, and I heard that Liu Ba beat his mother-in-law last night. Jiao Ming was not very interested in these gossips, but a certain system became even more excited after listening to it.

Jiao Ming wanted to invite Liu Ba in, but after thinking about it, it was better to go out, the castle was likely to give him some unnecessary pressure.

The process of meeting was very simple, and Liu Ba seemed to be still immersed in grief, his voice was hoarse and low, and he didn't talk nonsense. Jiao Ming was a little nervous weakened by a certain system, and he had no interest in rambling. The two of them went straight to the point, and it can be summed up as one person said: continue to raise, and the other person replied: okay. Then Liu Ba left, and the rest of the work was naturally taken care of by the old door panel.

Jiao Ming began to pack his luggage simply, ate at noon, and told the old door panel a few words, and the two of them set off lightly.

... Binglian's firewood girl has long been interesting to you.,What kind of saliva is wasted.,Just sleep clothes and she'll be done.,Of course, wasting some saliva during foreplay is also a personal hobby.,This system is in line with the attitude of not supporting or objecting...

... Don't open the yellow tongue, okay, it's boring...

... Then let's talk about your indecision, you just hesitated during the college entrance examination, a multiple-choice question and tossed a coin to finish the thing, and you are still there to see the end, wrong...

Jiao Ming didn't tell anyone about this, although even if he had a few points more in the college entrance examination, he might not be able to go to a higher school, but this was always a thorn in his heart. At this time, I was so accused, and there was a fire in my heart, but I was helpless, and after calming down, I resorted to the method I had just figured out.

... Song: Birch Forest...

... Point your sister, fuck off, I don't sing, you're really stupid, you take it seriously when you tease you a few times...

... So how are you going to be quiet...

... No matter how many times you ask, the answer is: there is no door...

After another failed negotiation, Jiao Ming was dizzy and physically and mentally exhausted, and it seemed that it would take some time to get used to a chattering poisonous tongue system.

Xia Feng's maid etiquette doesn't seem to have chatting with people to relieve boredom, even if she sees Jiao Ming's wilting appearance, she never takes the initiative to chat and talk, but just takes care of her daily life and diet.

After sleeping overnight, the next day near noon, you can see people dressed as villagers walking on the road, and after a short rest for lunch, I rode a hammer for about an hour before arriving at Changteng Town. Along the way, Jiao Ming didn't have to do any chores, and several negotiations with a system were fruitless, and the only discovery was that if you chatted with a certain system seriously, it was still okay, once you ignored or perfunctory, a certain system would intensify its troubles and retaliate back.

......

The town of Long Vine is not big from a distance, there are no walls, the buildings are all wooden structures, and a few tall broad-leaved trees are dotted among them, but there are no buildings that appear to be magic towers. When you get closer, you can see that it is roughly divided into two parts, the east area, which is dominated by two- and three-story wooden buildings, should be the residence of most of the magic warriors, and the west side, which is similar to the slums of Sardinia City, is inhabited by the lower classes who beg for a living.

After entering the town, Jiao Ming wanted to find Binglian immediately to start his persuasion plan, but he didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by a figure rushing out next to him, it was Cousin Luohua. Jiao Ming smiled bitterly in his heart, but he secretly thought that this Luohua cousin really liked him a little, and he wouldn't be so positive if he was entrusted by others.

... Get on her, the fat that was sent to the door, go on, what are you hesitating about, you won't be hard up, right?...

"Did Miss Binglian explain anything to you?" Jiao Ming asked Xia Feng beside him, and at the same time tilted his head slightly at Cousin Luohua.

Xia Feng said with a respectful expression in the style of a maid: "Miss didn't explain. ”

... There's no spectrum of a hairy egg.,It's really TM under-trained.,It's still Sister Luohua here.,Seriously, you should also take the first step as a man.,This Luohua is a good candidate...

After greeting her, Cousin Luohua immediately expressed her willingness to take Jiao Ming for a walk, but Jiao Ming neither had the leisure nor looked down on the excitement of this ravine to catch up with the market, and euphemistically explained that he had something important to discuss with Binglian, and asked Sister Luohua to lead the way.

Luo Hua readily agreed, and the three of them walked through the crowd of people coming and going, and along the way, Jiao Ming received many young and middle-aged men's puzzled eyes, the reason for which Jiao Ming didn't want to know, but how could a certain system do what he wanted, pointing out that others were just wondering what the relationship between this sick seedling and the two beauties around him was. Jiao Ming's mental malaise, which has been tortured by a certain system in the past few days, is indeed a little weaker than the energetic magic warriors around him.

The three of them walked for seven or eight minutes, turned a few corners and entered a yard, there were two persimmon trees in the yard that were not very tall, Jiao Ming quickly took out the unicorn fairy who had been hungry for three or four days from his pocket, and threw it gently, and this little thing disappeared among the branches and leaves of the persimmon tree by itself.

The courtyard here is roughly rectangular, the south side of the main street is a three-story wooden building, and the east side of the street has a long two-story wooden building, at a glance you know that it is a narrow room structure, like a residence. On the west side is a fence wall on the north side, and there is a small back door on the north side, and there is a one-person wide alleyway outside.

Bing Lian Xu heard the human voice, poked her head out of a window on the second floor of the wooden building on the east side, saw Jiao Ming and Xia Feng, and beckoned happily. After the three of them went upstairs to meet, Binglian asked in surprise, "Are you sick?"

Jiao Ming smiled bitterly: "Don't talk about this, let's get to the point, about the collection of taxes on the territory." ”

Binglian didn't ask any questions, took out the attitude of doing business, beckoned the three of them to sit down, and didn't show any strangeness to Luohua. took out a pen and paper and put it in front of Jiao Ming, which was exactly what it was like listening to mathematics every day in the castle.

Jiao Ming cleared his throat, and then began to talk about the results of his thinking in the past few days: "We must first change the way of collecting taxes, from collecting taxes in kind to collecting hidden taxes on goods. A scholar in my hometown likened taxes to goose feathers, and collecting taxes is the job of plucking as many goose feathers as possible while making as few goose calls as possible. Not to mention the distribution process after the tax, the essence of the common tax is not to collect grain or money, but to extract the wealth generated by the taxpayer's labor. The peasants in the territory produce 100 sacks of grain in a year, and we collect 70 sacks, which is actually 70 percent of the peasants' labor in a year. The way we collect taxes in kind is too crude and inefficient, which is not only costly, but also arouses resistance. Jiao Ming took a sip of water, looked at the three girls again, and seemed to understand all of this, so he continued: "It's different to extract the hidden tax on commodities, it is completely possible to achieve a higher extraction ratio, and the people have no pain, even if they have pain, they can't find someone to vent." Suppose we have a commodity that costs 100 bags of grain, but the actual cost is only 20 bags or even less, the people will naturally pay more than 80% of the taxes when they buy this commodity, and they will happily rush to buy it. ”。

Luohua was completely confused, Xia Feng didn't seem to understand, but Binglian seemed to keep up with the train of thought, frowning and pondering.

"Isn't it ...... to have a higher extraction ratio?"

This brings us to the other side of taxation: what is taken for the people and what is taken for the people. Ideally, the extracted wealth will be returned to the taxpayer in some other form, so in general, we are just deciding what to do with the wealth for the people. ”

"Can you give me an example? Binglian asked

"You've seen my school. ”

Binglian nodded.

"After my parents paid their taxes, a portion of the tax was allocated to education, and then I went to 'compulsory education', and everyone was happy. ”

"Are you sarcastic?" asked Ice Lotus strangely.

"Not at all. Jiao Ming waved his hand, "People are inert, my father smokes, drinks and plays mahjong, if this money doesn't go through this process, I may not be able to go to college." ”

Binglian obviously didn't know what tobacco, alcohol and mahjong were, but she didn't waste her sister's time on this issue: "With the current situation of our crocodile collar, what suggestions do you have." ”

Jiao Ming smiled and said, "Build a house." Turn the entire town of Long Vine into a big stone castle. Practical plans have also been bothering Jiao Ming, but the situation in Changteng Town seen today has made Jiao Ming suddenly brighter.

Next, Jiao Ming told the specific content, and when he heard it, Binglian's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more vigorous.
