Chapter 374 Breaking economic news (please vote for me!)

Without investigation and research, there is no right to speak. When Lin Daguan and Teacher Zhang talked about this, they had basically understood the information about the weaving industry and the ideas of the Weaving Industry Office.

It is nothing more than a "rat-defeating weapon". The first thing is to make him, Lin Tailai, take care of Teacher Zhang's face.

Moreover, the fact that the weaving industry can hire Teacher Zhang shows that they have certain connections in Shilin. Many urban gentry are themselves gentry households.

The second weapon was to make him, Lin Tailai, worry about his defensive duties.

If Lin Tailai caused another civil unrest, it would be difficult to explain to the court.

At the same time, the weaving industry also has a lot of human resources. Tens of thousands of weavers are not just claimed to be there, but they actually exist.

After confirming that the Weaving Industry Office still only had these routines and no new tricks, Lin Daguan's evaluation was "childish".

After all, it is just the "germ of capitalism" that has not completely broken away from the feudal system, so it is normal to be naive.

So Lin Daguan asked Zhang Youyu: "In your impression, what is my style of doing things when I encounter obstacles?"

This question is too childish. Zhang Youyu answered without thinking: "The first is to hit the door directly and destroy the opponent!

The second is to directly attack the opponent in the face, forcing the opponent to counterattack and do the wrong thing, and then destroy the opponent's goal!

The third is to directly hit the door with a face, lure others to rescue, and then destroy the opponent's entire door! "

In fact, Lin Daguan is also very strategic, but the strategy is still based on face-riding output.

Lin Tailai then said: "Then what I would like to talk about today is my sincerity. I hope, teacher, you can bring this sincerity back to the Weaving Industry Office."

"What sincerity?" Teacher Zhang asked in confusion. He really didn't feel it.

Lin Daguan said leisurely: "The industrial park is very big, big enough to accommodate thousands of looms. I welcome machine owners to move their looms to the industrial park."

Zhang Youyu was shocked. Do you, Lin Tailai, think this is sincerity?

Before leaving, Lin Daguan reminded again: "Teacher, don't forget, you still have ten acres of land in the industrial park!"

Zhang Youyu: "."

In the next few days, three pieces of blockbuster news suddenly broke out in the Suzhou City Economic Circle, or it would be an exaggeration to say it was one piece.

The first news is that the so-called Xujiang Industrial Park has announced an expansion plan to add 300 looms by the second half of the year, instead of 100 as originally rumored.

And by the beginning of next year, another 600 looms will be added, bringing the total number of looms in the park to 1,000.

Everyone knows that Lin Daguan is behind Xujiang Industrial Park, and Lin Daguan's execution ability is well-known in Suzhou City.

The second piece of news is that Lin Daguan is about to cross the river north again to Yangzhou City to "attract investment" and absorb funds from Yangzhou City to invest in the industrial park.

This news successfully answered the doubts raised by the first news: Large-scale expansion requires large-scale investment. Where does the capital come from?

It turned out that Lin Daguan had his mind set on Yangzhou salt merchants. If the influence was sufficient, this idea was still feasible.

The third piece of news is that Lin Daguanren attended an event and delivered a speech at Fuzhou. He publicly declared that Suzhou City needs a direct seaport!

You can use the Wusong River to transport overseas and export silk products directly!

This is a more grand blueprint. After hearing this speech, people of insight in Suzhou City turned their attention to Songjiang Mansion next door.

The Wusong River, which has plenty of water for large boats, has its downstream outlet in Shanghai County, Songjiang Prefecture.

It is said that in the Yuan Dynasty, there were ships passing the Wusong River to reach the Fengmen Gate of Suzhou City.

So many knowledgeable people rushed to Fengmen to buy land and houses.

Lin Daguan, who had released heavy economic news one after another, came to the county government of Changzhou County to visit the county magistrate Yuan Hongdao. "To be honest, I really want to be that magistrate, but it's a pity that I'm not qualified." Magistrate Yuan sighed.

Official Lin was surprised. As a great writer, Magistrate Yuan had always been impatient with official duties and had little interest in officialdom. Why was he eager to be promoted today?

Magistrate Yuan sighed with emotion: "Because now as the magistrate of Suzhou, I don't have to do anything and don't have to worry about anything. It's exactly the official position I dreamed of."

In the government office, there were two close friends of Lin Tailai, Liu Tongpuan and Guo Tuiguan. One was in charge of money and food, and the other was in charge of punishment. The new prefect really just needed to be put on his back.

After the greetings were completed, Official Lin got down to business, "I came here to visit the county magistrate today because I wanted to talk about the Dongcheng Jihu incident."

As we all know, Suzhou City is divided into two counties, the western half belongs to Wu County and the eastern half belongs to Changzhou County.

Most of the machine households and weavers gathered in Dongcheng, so administratively it belonged to Changzhou County.

"What can Jihu say?" Yuan Zhixian didn't know why.

Lin Tailai asked: "Do they rarely pay taxes? This is because the county government is not doing its job well."

Yuan Zhixian looked at Official Lin as if he were a fool. Did he take the wrong medicine?

This was the case in the Ming Dynasty. There was commercial tax in name, but in fact, apart from setting up checkpoints on transportation arteries to collect taxes, commercial tax was almost negligible.

First, the imperial government did not attach great importance to commercial taxes in their thinking. Second, the scale of commercial activities in most areas was limited, and even if they collected taxes, they would not be able to collect much money.

Under this social background, it seems like an unrealistic nonsense for Lin Daguan to go to the county government and say "tax the government households."

Yuan Zhixian was idle and asked with a funny attitude: "Then how do you collect it? How much should be collected?"

Lin Daguan spoke confidently: "The commercial tax regulations of the Ming Dynasty are one in thirty, so of course we must collect taxes according to this standard.

Specific to the loom household, based on the value of each loom being fifteen taels, thirty tax dollars equaled five taels of silver.

This calculation method is simple and easy, so the tax standard should be five cents per loom per year.

In addition, can we consider that after each finished product is registered and verified by the government, a tax of three cents will be paid? "

County Magistrate Yuan was stunned when he heard this. Lin Tailai, have you really studied how to collect taxes?

Do you know how difficult it is to tax machine households? The government dares to impose taxes today, and businesses dare to close businesses on a large scale tomorrow.

Then the unemployed weavers would gather together to cause trouble, numbering at least a thousand people, forcing the government to cancel the tax.

In the end, Magistrate Yuan responded: "It's just talk, it can't be realized at all!"

But Official Lin laughed and said, "I don't expect it to come true either!"

Yuan Zhixian asked in confusion: "Then why are you talking about this?"

"Although it cannot be realized, it does not affect the release of the news!" Lin Daguan said: "If the news spreads about taxing mobile households, the county government will not admit or deny it!"

Then the fourth piece of heavy economic news in the past few days spread. The government may be considering taxing machine owners and charging a fixed tax rate based on the number of looms.
