Chapter 123 Stamp Duty

Because He Xi's land policy is in.

During this period, the price of land continued to rise, not only in the city of Beijing, but in the entire north. Because many people have made money and want to go home and buy land.

For this matter, He Xi has studied it in particular. In the end, there were many restrictions on the sale and purchase of land.

First of all, there is a limit on individual ownership of land.

This point was almost universally supported by the court.

Land is not an ordinary commodity. Land naturally represents power. The person who owns the land naturally has the right to control the person who uses the land in order to live. Because land is not like other assets, land occupies a considerable amount of space. It is difficult for many people who depend on the land to survive without it.

This is not the same as other assets.

Many huge state-owned enterprises have set up a small society, and the owners of the very large enterprises themselves have mastered a small society. In this small society, they are the masters of everything. It doesn't matter what the rules are out there.

The existence of the large landlord class, whether it is for capitalism or for the feudal system, will have a bad effect, if you don't believe it, please look at the South American social model.

Secondly, on the purchase eligibility.

Generally speaking, people can only buy land in their hometowns. It is not possible to buy land elsewhere. Officials are even more forbidden to sell land in the place where they are employed. And make a provision that the land is bought and sold, and the locals have the same priority.

For example, a piece of land in a village is to be sold. You have to buy one from this county. And if someone in the village wants to buy. Under the same conditions, it must be sold to the same village.

This is actually a variant of ancient law. In the Song Dynasty, when selling a house, you must first ask your neighbors.

He Xi's hope for the land system is to form a professional farm management. Small mergers, more use of machinery. And it is impossible for the emergence of the kind of big landlords who own tens of thousands of acres of land.

Finally, it's time to buy.

The purchase must go to the prefecture and county to transfer the ownership. The transfer of ownership also has to pay taxes, and it is a heavy tax, which is of course a financial constraint for the imperial court. He Xi tried to find a way to make money for the imperial court. But at the same time, it is also one of the ways to restrict land transactions.

But don't go to the county to transfer the house. If the county finds out, it will be fined and auctioned.

Under these conditions, there are many people who want to buy land. But very few can get their hands on it.

But when He Xi sold King Yan's soil, these restrictions were gone.

There are no land limits, no eligibility restrictions, and even taxes are reduced. What is needed is that after these people buy these lands, they find a way to recruit people on their own to reclaim the land.

This is not a good choice for many people who have money in their hands.

Land is the most stable asset, and many people can see the depreciation of the currency today. It's hard to say what it looks like now and what it will look like in the future. The land is good for preserving its value alone.

Moreover, the cheap place, the lack of output, and the lack of manpower are not problems for many people.

After all, for these rich people, they don't go to the business themselves, just send a few housekeepers to manage the past. What does it have to do with them whether they are cold or not. What they want is an insurance. It is a share of the inheritance of the descendants of the heirs. It's not a problem whether it's remote or not.

Even to some extent, remoteness is good.

After all, for many people, this industry is almost something they will never use. By the time they or their children and grandchildren use this property, their careers in Beijing or Nanjing will almost fail. Or lose money in business, or fall in officialdom.

At that time, perhaps hiding from these corners was the best way to keep the family able to pass it on.

Otherwise, he is still in the power field, and he may be trampled to death by the small role that he didn't look down on back then.

As a result, this land sale is also quite hot.

After all the land on both sides of the Nenjiang River was bought and sold, nearly 10 million yuan was collected.

And this sum of money is enough for King Yan. And after Yan Wang waited for this money, he would directly place orders for several iron factories.

Buy a large number of weapons, no less than the amount of the kings of the South Seas bought together.

In this way, the water released by He Xi has been transformed step by step into a factor that stimulates economic development. And after He Xi released the water, Beijing was even more prosperous in all aspects.

The most typical is stamp duty.

Stamp duty is the tax levied by the imperial court on the transaction voucher at three thousandths or even less. Not for nothing before. In the past, there were also expropriations in real estate transactions and land transactions. But to be honest, whether it is a land transaction or a real estate transaction, the frequency of transactions is not high.

No one buys a house, sells a house, and sells it again. Unless it's a fool.

However, as soon as the markets for stocks, treasury bonds, and public bonds came out. Stamp duty went up immediately.

Without him, although it is said that stock trading is not as developed as it is in later generations. However, later generations of shareholders are willing to trade frequently and contribute fees to the state and financial institutions. Stock trading in this era is not similar.

Even within a month, there is a stamp duty of hundreds of thousands of taels.

In this way, at the end of the year, it is another considerable amount of tax.

It is not a small supplement to Beijing's finances.

During this period of time, He Xi's mind was not on the battlefield at all, but stared at various financial markets. He will see if the data in all aspects can be stabilized, and if not, maybe he will have to come up with certain means.

Postpone the crisis until at least a year later. Hedge the crisis with the news of victory.

------

He Xi is preventing future crises. But Zid already felt creepy.

Billion yuan. What a concept this is.

Worth one billion taels, during the Hongwu period, the total amount of silver in circulation was probably this amount. How much can a billion yuan do, and what will Beijing do with this billion yuan. How could Zid not understand.

He immediately asked to see Zhu Yunwen and said, "Your Majesty, and in today's crisis, Beijing's mind can be understood even by a child. Tomorrow will be a life-and-death plan for the imperial court. The minister thought that he should strike first, and the army attacked in advance, and the thieves were taken by surprise."

Zhu Yunwen was buzzing in his heart. He simply couldn't digest the number.

One billion yuan, even if the treasure money was issued indiscriminately, it did not reach this point. The price of the treasure money collapsed. Now, He Xi has made such a big move, although the prices in Beijing fluctuate, but the basic original prices, the fluctuations are not large.

This made Zhu Yunwen wonder, what the hell is going on?

He actually didn't know that the prices that seemed to fluctuate little, among which He Xi and Yang Shiqi didn't know how much effort they had. At the very least, the price of grain has been under the control of the household department in Beijing, and a steady stream of grain imports from Nanyang, as well as the price of grain in Hebei and Liaodong, are all under the suppression of the Beijing imperial court.

In order to stabilize this price, Beijing has to invest a lot of subsidies every year.

Food, clothing, shelter and transportation, food is stable. And after the industrial production of cloth, the price has also decreased. And Beijing lacks manpower, and many people who don't weave cloth can easily find other things to do.

Needless to say, now.

Because of the construction of Beijing City, a series of building materials factories were formed, and they are still playing a role today, with Beijing as the center, developed transportation, and spread these building materials. There are even some people who go to other places to set up factories.

In short, the construction cost of the people has been reduced a lot.

Needless to say, the canal and railway system is the logistical support for Beijing's operations, but it is also the main artery of the democratic movement.

Most of these costs are down.

In this way, the relative stability of prices was maintained under the condition that he was able to issue banknotes on a large scale.

And in Nanjing, he actually did too little. After all, although they did it according to He Xi's model. But didn't they follow He Xi and see what He Xi did. At least not so sensitive to food prices.

Nor has more effort been put into investigating all aspects of the economy.

It's just that Zhu Yunwen doesn't know. His sense of this is something that Beijing can do. Nanjing can also do it

？

It's not that Zhu Yunwen doesn't know the risks, but even if he knows. He wanted to try it too. Because, he also understands that the logistics of fighting a war come first. Since Beijing has raised so much money for the war, it is difficult for Nanjing to resist without the corresponding money.
