The county government, although there are not a few days left, Liu Ponu still wants to do something before leaving.

Of course, there are also selfish motives in between.

"Wang Bing, report the cost of Quyuan plow!" Liu Ponu sat there quietly and slowly closed his eyes.

"All the labor costs of a curved plough add up to five dollars, which does not include the cost of mining, if you add these, it is estimated that it will be about six to seven dollars, the cost of food and accommodation is about ten to fifteen new plows on average, and the average wood is about five dollars per plow, although the amount of iron used in each new plough is not much, but this price cannot be estimated at present, if you do not consider the problem of iron, the cost of making a new plough is about twelve or thirteen dollars!" Wang Bing said with a familiar voice.

Since he learned a new way of keeping accounts, Wang Bing is in charge of all the accounts, even if there are not a few people under him, it is effortless to record.

Liu Ponu nodded slowly, twelve or thirteen dollars, it doesn't seem to be much, but it's actually not too little.

If it is measured by grain, this money alone basically requires the people to take out half a year's food at home to exchange it for twelve or thirteen yuan.

The price may be a bit empty, but that's because there are not many channels for people to make money now, and they basically didn't need money in the past.

What is needed is more barter, and even most of the time, the people would rather have the grain in the warehouse moldy than exchange it for money.

But these are not important, twelve or thirteen dollars is just the basic cost, and the real accounts are not calculated like this.

Putting aside the price of iron for the time being, the investment in such a large mining area is not a small amount, if this part of the investment is not included in the cost of a single frame, Liu Ponu's mining area may not be able to return to the original cost for a lifetime.

At most, it is not a loss to sell the plough in the back, but the investment in the front is equivalent to a waste.

"How much does it cost to practice a furnace of molten iron?" Liu Ponu continued to ask.

"It's about 100 yuan, mainly because there are no coal mines around, and all the coal needs to be shipped from other places, so the price remains high." Wang Bing said truthfully.

"A furnace of molten iron can cast about a hundred ploughshares, and the cost of charcoal is calculated as a penny!" Liu Ponu muttered secretly.

Many detailed costs are not at all possible now, and they are not clearly calculated.

If it is calculated according to the estimated cost, it will definitely lose money in the end.

But if the cost of the charcoal with the molten iron is calculated according to fifteen yuan, it will basically not lose money.

He didn't pay for the iron mine, it was directly a fenced land, and the laborers were all prisoners, just food and shelter.

So the book cost of a new plough is actually about 15 dollars.

But at the price of fifteen yuan, Liu Ponu is absolutely unacceptable.

"If the mine were at normal prices, how much would it cost to get it into the way it is now?" Liu Ponu continued to ask.

Although he didn't contribute much, there was a cost to being shameless.

Doing good deeds is not charity, the money that should be earned must be earned, otherwise there will be no difference between yourself and Liu Ju?

I didn't earn it, but my subordinates made a lot of money, and in the end, they had to help them carry the blame with empty sleeves.

"Even if you don't consider the problem of forty tilts of land, the Wang family alone has spent no less than 100,000 yuan here, plus the money you invested, it is estimated that there will always be four or five hundred thousand yuan." Wang Bing continued.

Liu Ponu smiled, look, isn't this cost just swishing up?

Based on the net profit of 10 yuan per new plow, he needs to sell 40,000 to 50,000 new ploughs to recoup his investment.

In this way, the ex-factory price of the new plough must not be less than twenty-five yuan, and at the same time, it is necessary to take into account the taxes and the share with the imperial court.

Although the bad old man is very shameless, at least he has invested in an iron mine and so many prisoners, hasn't he?

In addition, the property of the later raided family was also placed here, so Liu Ponu felt that the profit here might not be able to satisfy the appetite of the bad old man.

In this way, it will be necessary to sell 150,000 to 250,000 plows to make it recoup.

Then consider the tax of thirty taxes and one......

Well, the thirty tax of fart, that thing is aimed at ordinary people and landlords.

And Liu Ponu always thought that it was one-thirtieth of the yield per mu, and it was not until after crossing that he understood that three refers to handing over to the landlord thirty percent, and the people themselves left seventy percent, and then dividing the landlord's three parts into ten parts and handing over one to the treasury.

And that's just an agricultural tax.

As for commercial taxes, Liu Ponu wanted to cry just thinking about it!

Bad old man, how can you toss so much?

No one may believe that during the Western Han Dynasty controlled by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, do you dare to believe that the state was actually collecting personal income tax?

That's right, the personal income tax of later generations was learned from Liu Che, a bad old man.

There are three main sources of tax revenue in the current Han Dynasty, the first is the basic agricultural tax, and the second is the poll tax, that is, the calculation of the endowment, which ordinary people pay every year, that is, one hundred and twenty yuan.

Those who have no money can get food, prescribed hemp rope, shoes, clothing that meets the standards, etc., each of which has a different corresponding price.

The merchant and the slave were doubled, and received two hundred and forty pieces of silver per year.

Doing business itself is not taxed, but it is calculated.

This is terrifying, that is, all the things in the house, whether they are valuable or not, all the things you think of and what you can't think of are added together, even pots and pans can't be let go, the handicraft industry is worth four thousand levies, and the businessman is counted with two thousand levies.

That is to say, if it is calculated according to the standard, the more expensive the Quyuan plough Liu Ponu sells, the more taxes he will pay.

And it is not sold to pay taxes, as long as the production is counted, and then the tax is paid within the specified time.

Now there are more than 3,000 new ploughs in the storehouse, and if each of them is priced at a hundred yuan, it is equivalent to the property of 30,000 yuan.

According to the calculation of 2,000, it means that you have not done anything, and you have to pay 15 calculations first, 1,800 yuan in taxes?

"I'm so ......" Even Liu Ponu, who has a flexible head, is a little confused at this time.

If all the miscellaneous taxes are counted together, people who are not professionals really don't understand.

As for looking for a bad old man to sell a miserable cheat and a tax exemption or something, although Liu Ponu is shameless, he will never do such a thing.

At most, when you get into the position, you will first cancel this unrealistic tax.

The bad old man really did everything to fight the war, pit the people and pit the merchants, the merchants and the ministers, and the ministers and sons......

"You calculate all the costs, including the taxes that should be paid, and add them to the iron, and a plow will be counted as fifty dollars for the time being, give me an accurate number!" Liu Ponu simply handed over this matter directly to Wang Bing to be responsible.

Although he could have figured it out with a little more time, it was too brain-burning.

I'm just 20 years old, what if I'm bald?

When the time comes, draw a portrait of the emperor, and future generations will see, ouch, this is actually a bald emperor?

Liu Ponu didn't want to jump out of the coffin board and scold them......

"Young master, the data you want has been counted......" Liu Qu hurriedly walked in with a bamboo slip.

"A household gives them a new plow, the scene should be atmospheric, lively, and teach them how to use it on the spot, let them all go to the field to experience it!" Liu Ponu commanded directly.

Liu Ponu plans to promote Quyuan plough before leaving, and no matter how good the advertisement is, it is not as good as the curative effect.

So there was this decision, and what Liu Qu held in his hand was the list of families with the largest number of people who sacrificed their lives for the country in the townships of Lantian County.

Buying people's hearts, I'm the best at this......

"Wang Bing, you go to the accounting as soon as possible, and when the cost comes out, you can quickly handle this matter, and when you send them a new plow, you will do the order by the way!" After arranging the matter, Liu Ponu instantly felt that his thoughts had reached a lot.

Vaguely, Liu Ponu suddenly felt as if he had comprehended a trace of the true meaning of being an emperor.

If someone else has something to do, you can arrange it yourself.

At most, it is to consider whether it is reasonable to see if it is reasonable when arranging it, and if you look at it this way, it doesn't seem to be difficult......

It is not difficult for Liu Ponu, but Wang Bingke suffered.

He didn't understand the business tax, even if he found the official in charge of tax collection in the county, he finally explained it to himself, Wang Bing didn't know what to do about it.

If it is according to the regulations, this is calculated according to all the family property of Liu Ponu, how can his family property in Chang'an be calculated?

How do you count embezzled money?

Also, this mining area seems to have a share of the imperial court, if it is calculated in strict accordance with the rules, should I also go to Chang'an and ask the emperor how much the price should be for the entire Han Dynasty? Otherwise, it's not good for us to file taxes......

Anyway, this thing would never be possible with Wang Bing's ability alone, and he didn't have the courage to do it.

In the end, it was Liu Ponu who made the decision, only counting those in the mining area, and not counting anything else.

Anyway, the bad old man is the emperor, and he will be the king of Shu soon, so it's a big deal to have three chapters with the bad old man, and when I return to the original, I will increase the proportion of the imperial court.

Anyway, Liu Ponu also found a way, and all the troubles were all because of the uneven distribution of spoils......

Three days later, Liu Ponu personally came forward, and the county officials of all sizes were present.

More than 100 families received more than 100 new-style quyuan plows from the county government, which everyone did not expect, it was nothing more than farm tools.

But after experiencing it for myself, one by one I began to lose my seat.

On the high stage, Liu Ponu's face was full of melancholy and looked at everyone with a hint of reluctance, and Liu Ponu, who was on the top of the play, decided to make one last fool before leaving!

No, it was the last sincere speech......

"Ladies and gentlemen, I can't hide it, the court has issued an order, and I'm about to be transferred, but I'm still in charge of the mining area, anyway, I've also been our Lantian parent official, although I haven't been able to make any achievements, but I dare to pat my chest and abdomen and say that I didn't make Lantian worse, the cost of a new plow calculated by the mining area is in the early 100s, considering the initial investment, the cost of the mining area, and the need to make profits to continue to open mining areas to make new plows in other places, and strive to let more people use the new plow."

"I estimate that the final price of the new plough will be around 200 yuan, of course, the price will try to push down, as for whether it can be pressed down, I dare not guarantee, considering that most people may not be able to afford a new plow, so I plan to focus on the payment method, in order to reduce the burden on everyone as much as possible, so as not to affect normal life because of a new plow."

"My lord......" When they heard the news that Liu Ponu said that he was going to be transferred, many people's eyes were instantly wet with tears.

Liu Ponu said that he didn't make any achievements, but everyone didn't think so.

The blue sky is bluer, the people's lives are better, the law and order are better, and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment.

If this is not a result, then what can be considered a result?

In the face of the reluctance of many people, Liu Ponu did not stay too long, but left a lonely back for everyone.

Chen Mi, who was promoted by Liu Ponu, stood in the crowd to maintain order, although some of the words were explained by Liu Ponu, which also made him feel a little unbright.

"One Sword Alone"

But in the current scene, Chen Mi feels that these are nothing.

Looking at the more than 100 households who were at a loss with the new plow, Chen Mi sighed helplessly: "Hey, you people have a good life, it's not good, the adults wanted to give more people a new plow, but even with the adult's family background, they can't come up with so much money, so in the end, they can only find a way to scrape together money everywhere to buy more than 100 new plows for you......"
