Whether it is apportioned into the mu or the official gentry pays grain in one piece, if you want to popularize it, you will inevitably encounter great resistance.

However, if there is resistance, it means that the interests of the landlord class are touched, and it should be carried out even more to the death.

If you don't give land annexation and step on the brakes to death, this Ming Dynasty will not be able to carry it for many years.

"I know that if this government comes out, you will also face great pressure. The matter has been decided, and there is no room for turnaround. No matter how difficult it is, I hope that you can consider more from the standpoint of the people and from the standpoint of the Ming Dynasty. If you don't want to think about it, say it early, don't wait for me to be unkind to you. ”

"Your Ministers understand."

Several people spoke aloud at the same time.

If you want to talk about selfishness, everyone has it. But selfishness also depends on when. The emperor has sharpened his knife and made a big deal of it, as a cabinet assistant and no longer stands with the emperor for a penny, what is the difference between it and looking for death? But the question is that His Majesty's new policy touches the interests of the gentry and landlords of the whole country, and is it so easy to implement it?

"Are you worried about the difficulty of implementation?"

"Don't dare to deceive Your Majesty, I'm afraid there will be great resistance to the implementation of this policy." Fan Jingwen said along with Zhu Youzhen.

"No matter how big the resistance is, it must be done, one year will not work for two years, two years will not work for three years. I don't believe that this world is full of people who want money and don't want their lives. ”

Zhu Youzhen said with a blank face.

"I am going to set up a leading group for the special work of land tax reform, with me personally as the leader and you as the deputy leader. Implement the subcontracting system, two capitals and 16 provinces. With the exception of Liangjing and Taiwan, the remaining fifteen provinces are subcontracted to the five of you, each of whom is responsible for the tax reform of the three provinces. At the end of each quarter, the evaluation is conducted, and those who rank last in the evaluation results will be given a warning. If he still ranks last in the next quarter's evaluation, he will be removed from his position as a cabinet scholar.

Of course, if I put pressure on you, I will naturally give you rights. Each subcontracted province is decided by lottery, and the local officials in charge of the province, except for the left and right political envoys, are appointed and dismissed by yourself only if they meet the procedures. In a word, I only want the result, not the process. ”

After Zhu Youzhen's words were finished, several people's heads were almost unable to react.

It's stressful, but it's also powerful.

Although he will definitely offend people, he is holding an official hat in his hand, and he is afraid that he will have no friends? How many state capitals are there in a province? How many official positions are there?

"I have said that I have given you rights, but that does not mean that you can abuse them. If you find that there is favoritism and corruption, don't blame me for not giving you a warning in advance. ”

"The ministers don't dare."

"Don't dare to be the best. Get up. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The payment of grain by the officials and gentry can be regarded as a policy that completely offends the officials and scholars, and this is a long-term struggle. But he is confident that even if it takes five or ten years, it will be carried out.

Provided, of course, that he can't die violently for no apparent reason.

Fan Jingwen and the others have a very complicated mood, the Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, and it is like Your Majesty. Not really. But as the core of the Ming Dynasty's power, they know very well what kind of changes such a change will bring to the country.

Alas, Your Majesty is too strong.

The so-called consultation is just a notice, and if you really dare to bargain with Your Majesty, I'm afraid there will be a problem.

Zhu Youzhen chatted with a few people about some specific implementation details and methods, and then let them leave.

"Wang Banban, how many people do you say will die this time?"

After Fan Jingwen and the others left, Zhu Youzhen rubbed his temples and said to Wang Chengen on the side.

"Long live the return, the slave doesn't know."

"Will someone stir the people to rebel?"

"Long live the return, the slave doesn't know." Wang Chengen replied cautiously again, long live and trust him again, but if there are words, you can't talk nonsense.

"You, go and send a telegram to Sun Chuanting. Let him enter Beijing as soon as possible after the New Year. Zhu Youzhen stretched out his hand and nodded at him, and said with a smile.

"Yes! Your Majesty. ”

"By the way, call Lu Jiude and Wang Dehua.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Being an emperor is actually lonely, isn't it?

Two quarters of an hour later, Lu Jiude and Wang Dehua came together.

"Slaves and maids see Your Majesty."

"Get up. I've got you covered. I plan to cancel the East and West Factories. ”

"Your Majesty? But what did I not do well? We'll change it! Please atone for your sins! When the two heard this, they immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, frightened.

The good spy boss is doing a good job, if the east and west factories are canceled, what will they do?

"Panic what!?" Zhu Youzhen frowned and scolded. "The cancellation of the two factories is not to remove you from your jobs! But there are more important things for you to do! ”

After a pause, Zhu Youzhen continued.

"I plan to set up a new agency: the Daming State Taxation Bureau."

The State Tax Service?

What is it?

The two men kneeling on the ground were confused. Is this Laoshzi Taxation Bureau more hanging than the East and West Factories?

Zhu Youzhen didn't know what the two of them thought, if he knew, he would definitely tell them.

Hanging, really more hanging than the east and west factories. Of course, in terms of taxes.

Zhu Youzhen's idea to establish the National Tax Service originated from the National Tax Service in Ameriken, which is also known as the IRS.

There are many legends about the IRS.

There is a saying in Ameriken that there are two things that you can't live without in life: death and taxes.

As for why the IRS is so hanging, we still have to start with the history of the establishment of the IRS. Its origins can be traced back to the Civil War. At that time, the fighting between the north and the south was extremely fierce, and military spending was very tight. The country has no money, how to fight this battle. So the president at the time ordered the tax department to step up tax collection, but can the tax be collected as it says? The tax department complained that the tax could not be collected.

Then the IRS was formed.

And was given the right to collect taxes by arms.

To pay or not to pay?

Don't pay?

Then pull out the gun and put it in your head and ask again.

To pay or not to pay?

So from the political and business tycoons to the common people, even if it is illegal income, they must pay taxes. Legend has it that there was once a villain named Capone who did a lot of bad things, but he couldn't get the evidence, and Ai Vicebi didn't even take him. Until one day, the IRS found out that he had evaded taxes. Sent someone to Capone's undercover for three years, and finally caught him by the tail of tax evasion. He was thrown in prison on charges of concealing personal income.

Some people are forced to have no choice, so they want to simply give up their Ameriken citizenship.

Yes, but there is a renunciation tax, and for the first ten years of renunciation of Ameriken citizenship, any income related to Ameriken must also be taxed as required, not a penny less!

Some may say, just die.

It's not okay to die, you always have an inheritance when you die, pay inheritance tax, up to half.

In a word, as long as it is an American person, he has not run away from paying taxes.

"The duty of the State Taxation Bureau is to collect taxes for Daming, and what you have to do is to collect taxes. For the time being, I will assume the position of Director, and the two of you will serve as Deputy Directors. The original team of the East and West factories did not move, and they were still at your disposal. In addition, I transferred another 10,000 soldiers from Beijing to the State Taxation Bureau, which was responsible for the collection of taxes throughout the country.

The duty of the State Taxation Bureau is to collect taxes, whether it is commercial tax, field tax, and various miscellaneous taxes. As long as it is a tax policy issued by the imperial court, it is within the scope of your responsibility. As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Lu Jiude and both of them were stunned.

The original team did not move, and 10,000 soldiers from the Beijing battalion were transferred?

Is this a promotion?

"Long live thanks! The slave and maid must live up to His Majesty's high expectations! ”

The two who reacted hurriedly kowtowed to thank him.

"In addition, we will transfer a group of talents who are proficient in accounting from the Academy of Sciences to set up a training institution to train financial and accounting talents for the State Taxation Bureau."

When it comes to accounting, most of them are meticulous work, and the talents of the two factories are obviously insufficient. Now we can only establish a framework, and the selection and reserve of talents requires a long process.

Anything can be conceived ideally, and there will be problems with implementation. But even then you can't do nothing.

In a word, in a word.

That's it!

Twenty-seventh of the lunar month

Several members of the cabinet were called to the Qianqing Palace to draw lots and assign the tax reform tasks of the 15 provinces.

When they learned that Zhu Youzhen was going to set up a department called the State Taxation Bureau, several people had mixed feelings.

The First Clan

There is a brocade guard inside, and there is an IRS outside.

Coupled with a group of heavily armed tax collectors in Beijing, this shows the rhythm of paying your life if you don't pay taxes!

"Your Majesty's actions are really leaky, and the ministers admire them." Bi Ziyan said with a smile.

If there is anyone who is the most supportive of tax reform, it is really him.

As the Minister of Finance, he is well aware of the dilemma of having no money.

There was no money to pay, and the soldiers mutinied. There was no money for disaster relief, and the people rebelled.

To maintain the long-term peace and stability of a country, it is not enough to rely on force alone, but also to have silver.

To sum up in one sentence.

Without money, you can't do anything.
