The days when I fished in Daming

"I'll give you another good news. In the future, all goods shipped to Yingtian Mansion will not be subject to any other miscellaneous taxes except the five-to-one tax. For other related tax departments, we will write to your majesty for convenience."

Who wouldn’t know how to give a sweet date a slap in the face?
Zheng Xiong knew the simplest truth at his fingertips.

The effect is not bad.

Everyone's eyes lit up, if that was the case, it wouldn't be bad.

Every aspect is taken care of.

If the government provides protection, then you don't have to worry about others being jealous. Instead of paying protection fees to others, it's better to go directly to Zheng Xiong to make the decision.

There are no restrictions and money can be spent as much as you want.

There are no miscellaneous taxes. Compared with the initial taxes, it is a bit too much, which is a bit painful.

However, if we can really receive purchases from the government, we can make up for it.

Added together, not only did everyone not feel a loss, but they felt like they had made a profit.

It's as if the shackles on my body have disappeared, and I can just make money with peace of mind.

It’s not a loss, it’s not a loss this time!

I'm glad I didn't run away, otherwise I would have almost missed this good opportunity.

Each and every one of them no longer had their previous sad expressions, and they all came forward to register enthusiastically, even feeling a bit scrambling.

That's it?

Wang Peng sighed a little and was also worried about Zheng Xiong's policies.

You know, the thirty-one tax was formulated by Lao Zhu.

It is stipulated that "all commercial taxes are one in thirty, and those who take more than the tax will be considered as violating the order."

Is Zheng Xiong really not afraid of death when he openly opposes Lao Zhu's national policy?
Afraid of death, of course.

It’s just that every one of the projects I’m going to build is a big project.

Without making more money, there is no way to continue.

A zero-cost business, of course, has to collect taxes.

Zheng Xiong has already restrained himself by only collecting taxes from big businessmen.

Otherwise, collect them all and carry out indiscriminate attacks.

If the road traffic hadn't been as good as in later generations, I would have had to install two traffic lights.

"Your Majesty, Zheng Xiong, would like to request your Majesty to levy a five-to-one tax on big businessmen, and also to cancel the taxes imposed by other tax bureaus."

This is a memorial that arrived in the evening, signed by Zheng Xiong.

rarity.

Lao Zhu frowned, his mind fluctuating.

"Mao Xiang, what's going on with Zheng Xiong? Why did you make such a mistake again?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the Medical Marquis summoned the big businessmen during the day~~~."

Balabala, everything was detailed, and in a short time, Lao Zhu understood what happened as if he was personally there.

After listening, Lao Zhu's frown deepened.

Boy, you are so brave!
Dare to change the national policy you have set at will, it will turn the world upside down!
To be honest, Zheng Xiong only levied taxes from big businessmen. Lao Zhu not only did not object, but also agreed.

It's not that I didn't expect it, but the energy of big businessmen is not at the same level as that of small traders. For the sake of stability, it is still a one-size-fits-all approach.

Zheng Xiong's actions were quite in line with his own wishes.

What I don't like is that Zheng Xiong gave the big businessman a status he shouldn't have.

Collusion between government and businessmen refers to this group of people.

Giving them protection is tantamount to supporting them to gradually grow bigger, and they will become too big in the future and even endanger the country.

Think about yourself, you are still young and still very energetic.

In a house, under his nose, no matter how hard Zheng Xiong tries, he can't make a difference.

Lao Zhu's frown gradually eased.

Forget it, it's no longer a separate matter anyway, he just needs to be happy.

If you can't achieve results, then you'll have to wait until later to calculate the general ledger.

"allow."

A big accurate word.

Zheng Xiong breathed a long sigh of relief.

Asking Lao Zhu for instructions left a little leeway for himself.

Don't give orders in a hurry and get into trouble with Lao Zhu.

Now that Lao Zhu agrees, there is no need to worry.

"Wangfu Cheng, is the plaque ready?"

"it is done."

"When checking the bill, remember the date of each household and check it immediately. This will make it more convenient next month."

"Yes, Lord Marquis." "Then quickly arrange for someone to check the accounts. Those who have paid the money will send the plaque."

"Ok."

After giving instructions to Wang Peng, Zheng Xiong called Tieniu over again.

Why do you say again!

"Master Marquis, do you have another project?"

Because Tieniu is almost used to it.

This was the first question he asked when he saw Zheng Xiong.

"Where did all these projects come from? I called you here this time to tell you something."

"This is a list of a group of merchants. They have various industries under their names. You notify everyone in the first building and go over to sit together after the work is done. Make one point: they are looking for trouble and cannot be allowed to stop."

"If you have any problems, I will take care of them for you. That's all, just go and make arrangements!"

Really free.

It’s okay to look for trouble when you have nothing to do.

"Yes, Lord Hou."

After giving orders to Tieniu, Zheng Xiong then went to the Military and Horse Department.

I talked to Wang Tongzhou about the recent government policies.

While being informed about the restrictions on merchants, they were also given a list to ask people from the Bingma Division not to patrol these places in the near future, so as to create opportunities for people from the First Construction Department.

Zheng Xiong kept his word and his threats became reality.

Yijian fully fulfilled Zheng Xiong's wishes.

Whenever I get off work, I go to these places to cause trouble.

These people were either picky or picky, and more than a dozen people blocked the door on one side to prevent anyone from entering.

Or just start a fight if they disagree.

After a few times, it was really too much.

The industries of wealthy businessmen suffered a severe blow.

At the same time, the security situation in Beijing has deteriorated a lot.

There are countless people who have reported to the official.

However, the army and horse department don't care about it, and the government office doesn't care about it either.

It fell on these people, making them desperate.

He can only turn to his own backers.

"Your Majesty, the Medical Marquis blatantly disobeyed Your Majesty's orders and raised the business tax to five taxes and one tax. The people complained endlessly and the crowd was excited."

"The doctor's actions are perverse and harmful to the people. If I dare to do so, please punish him."

After a while, several people agreed.

Hu Weiyong was not so impulsive. He let his younger brother charge first while he observed from the side.

Lao Zhu secretly counted the number of people.

One, two, three, four, just a table of mahjong.

"Zheng Xiong has reported the issue of commercial tax, and we have settled it. There is no need to mention it again in the future."

Lao Zhu briefly mentioned his right to know.

Then suddenly he shouted loudly.

"Come here, take these people to Dali Temple for retrial to see if they colluded with the merchants?"

"Your Majesty, spare your life. I don't know what crime I am guilty of. Could you please make it clear?"

Lao Zhu waved his hand and didn't want to explain at all.

After the personal guards took the person away, Lao Zhu looked around the hall and said with a serious face.

"Is there anyone else who treats us like a fool? If so, please come forward. I don't mind sending a few more people away."

After saying that, Lao Zhu slammed the table heavily.

"any left?"

It's scary. Lao Zhu, who is in full power, is too scary.

Few people dare to face it head on.

Hu Weiyong didn't look sideways and acted as if the matter had nothing to do with him, but his heart was bleeding a little.

After folding a few more, Zheng Xiong remained the same, nothing happened.

so annoying!
"Humph, it is an iron rule that officials cannot do business, and businessmen cannot be officials. No one will allow collusion between officials and businessmen as long as we are here."

"Sir, please take note."
