Chapter 410 Death and Taxation ([-])
Wang Xuan's eyes swept across the person's face, and continued to say in a deep voice: "First, the tax must be paid, and there is no negotiation on this."

As soon as Hua finished speaking, the people below immediately began to discuss. Wang Xuan said 'hum' heavily, his voice full of internal energy, and everyone was stunned, "This money will not be handed over to the court either!"

What?
If you don't turn it over to the court, and your lord Wang doesn't like it, then what will the money be used for?
Without waiting for everyone to continue thinking, Wang Xuan said again: "Zi once said: If you want to get rich, you must first build roads!"

"All the tax money will be used to repair the roads in my Fujian Province, and all the official roads will be replaced with concrete roads, concrete roads that can drive two four-wheeled carriages left and right!"

"This road is good. You can run a four-wheeled carriage. I don't think you can imagine the meaning of it. At the very least, it turns out that transporting grain from Tingzhou to Fuzhou will consume [-]% of the road. If there is Concrete roads and four-wheeled horse-drawn carriages, about half of the consumption is enough, and the same is true for other items, which can bring innumerable profits.”

"Not only that, the convenience of communication in various places, the increase in the flow of people, and the various intangible profits that can be brought will also skyrocket. Hmph, if you say a thousand words and ten thousand, the final benefits will be indispensable to everyone here."

After saying this, all the patriarchs here were stunned for a moment. Of course, everyone knows the benefits of building roads. After all, they are the patriarchs of big families.

It's just that no one expected that Wang Xuan would actually use the money for this. Everyone thought... Wang Xuan still had to be greedy!
Of course, it would be bullshit to say that Wang Xuan didn't make money. The cement consumed by the road construction had to be purchased from him. At that time, Wang Xuan would still have to eat a lot of meat.

"As for the official roads, roads leading to various large villages will also be built, so that I can use concrete roads in all parts of Fujian."

In fact, road construction in ancient times was not bad. After all, even a four-wheeled carriage can carry a maximum load of no more than four tons. This does not require so much concrete road surface. In fact, the construction cost is cheaper than the traditional method.

"After the road is built, the tax revenue will be used to repair the water conservancy facilities. These are also to ensure that we in Fujian will not look at the sky for food, and what is guaranteed is your interests and income. Don't he, mother, judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. belly."

"How come, how could we doubt Mr. Wuzhou?"

"Of course, of course, we also support tax collection!"

The people who shouted the loudest were the people from the inland prefectures, especially Tingzhou and Shaowu. Some families with relatively less land but more businesses, if there are concrete roads to communicate with each other, their cargo transportation costs will be lower and their income will be higher.

At this moment, the crowd was divided into two factions, and those who were not willing to pay at all were in the minority. Even if they were angry, they would not dare to object, unless they wanted to follow in the footsteps of the Seven Great Aristocratic Families.

Just now, Wang Xuan specifically mentioned the seven major families inside and outside the words, so he reminded everyone that if you are disobedient, you will destroy your meaning.

Seeing that he had achieved his desired goal, Wang Xuan continued: "Of course, I also know how much you earn from the land, and the court's tax laws are also inappropriate, so we in Fujian need to adapt."

When Wang Xuan said this, everyone's hearts were immediately raised. A slight change in the tax law will affect the interests of several years or more, and everyone can't help but pay attention to it.

Wang Xuan raised his finger and pointed to everyone below, and said bluntly: "Don't blame me for being rude, I'm a thousand-year-old fox. If you tell me that, don't blame me for turning your back."

Pfft, it's too easy to make people laugh, this sentence is too ordinary, it should not be said by a person of Wang Xuan's status, but...it's so fucking reasonable!
On weekdays, what everyone quotes from scriptures is nothing more than sophistry, and everyone knows the facts well.

"In the past, the imperial court's tax was twenty one tax per mu, and there were other exorbitant taxes. From now on, in Fujian, all those messy exorbitant taxes will be cancelled. Don't show me your cards. The tax is still one tenth per mu, but only The cash register does not receive food."

As soon as Wang Xuan's words fell, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, if it is true that only [-]% of the grain and [-] tax are charged, then everyone will not be able to pay much more than they are now. Not much to lose.

This has been the case in all dynasties. The most annoying thing is all kinds of exorbitant taxes and labor. For example, at the end of Ming Dynasty, that is, in the next 40 years, the three big noises, the sound of seedlings, and various increases are the most important.

"Of course, that being said, don't put all your thoughts on the tenants later on. I can tell everyone very clearly that once the development of Xiaoliuqiu starts in the future, there will definitely be a shortage of labor. If you treat the tenants badly, when the time comes If someone else’s house is taken away, then don’t go around shouting for injustice.”

Haha, haha, everyone who was caught by Wang Xuan's gaze couldn't help laughing dryly. So that's what they thought, and it was inevitable that they would be embarrassed by Wang Xuan's stick at the moment.

This statement is so direct...

"After talking about the grain tax, let's talk about the commercial tax."

As soon as Wang Xuan changed the topic, the hearts of these businessmen were immediately aroused. Their intuition told them that it was not a good thing. On the one hand, they said that they would collect taxes and build roads, and on the other hand, they would reduce the burden on agricultural taxes. Nothing to say, it must be a fuss about business taxes.

Looking around, Wang Xuan continued: "The Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang gave everyone a policy of 200% tax, and, in order to protect the business environment persecuted by the Yuan Dynasty, many products are tax-free, but, this is special. It’s been [-] years, it’s time to change it, I don’t care what happens in other places, it’s in Fujian!”

"Business tax starts with [-] taxes, some commodities are taxed with [-] taxes, overseas products are uniformly taxed with [-] taxes, and special commodities are taxed with [-] taxes and [-] tax."

"what!"

"This... this is too high!"

"No, absolutely not!"

Someone jumped up all of a sudden, these are big families mainly engaged in business, and all of them are people who are deeply related to Wang Xuan. After all, it is unacceptable to never collect taxes and change to a minimum of [-] taxes. , not to mention that there are ten taxes and one tax and five taxes and one tax, which is really, too much.

This is equivalent to, in the past, you didn’t spend a penny, and you can sell whatever you want, and now you suddenly have to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver a year, and the extra tax is 10,000+ taels, which is really unacceptable!
The venue suddenly became noisy again, and those who mainly focused on land, who were still distressed just now and wished to fight with Wang Xuan, were gloating.

After all, since ancient times, the main source of taxation has been grain taxation. Everyone thought that they would suffer heavy losses. How could they have thought... Hehe, it feels so good to watch the excitement.

Everyone was holding back their laughter, and it was very hard to hold back.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and sawdust flew all over the place, causing everyone's ears to ring.

Wang Xuan shattered the table in front of him with one palm, and his face became gloomy. This anger immediately reminded people who he was facing!
His position today was obtained from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood. In an instant, these people who were jumping around just now were covered in cold sweat, wishing to give themselves a slap in the face. In front of the killing god, he yelled loudly.

"Damn, what a fart, get out of here if you don't want to!" Wang Xuan stared and yelled, the person present was not the patriarch of a family with a huge net worth, but all of them bowed their heads and did not dare to speak out after being scolded. Not happy, but it really made them slam the door for the sake of face...

Hehe, it's actually pretty good to be alive!
The Seven Great Families and the King of Tang dared to exterminate their clans. What more did they have? Even if they had two heads, it might not be enough to chop them off!

Those ordinary people may not know how ruthless this man is, don't they know, especially the aristocratic families in Xinghua, Quanzhou, and Zhangzhou, Wang Xuan didn't confiscate the corpses after slaughtering the seven major families, so he just visited Inside the mansion.

Afterwards, these families sent people to check, especially these patriarchs, even if they were afraid, they went to the scene to have a look. Any patriarch has a huge population, and the mansions of the seven families are full of corpses, and any one of them was killed. Hundreds of people were killed, and it was these families who collected the bodies of the seven major families in the end.

After all, there are too many corpses, what if there is a plague in the city!
Therefore, it is impossible to get out, and it is impossible to get out if you are killed!

"When it comes to business, are you all comparable to me?"

"If you put all of you together, you can't keep up with me. I have to pay the most taxes. You guys are a ball. What's the matter with ten taxes and one? If you don't want to do it, you don't have to do it. I forced you to do it!?"

"Just sell a coal stove to the north, and you can double the profit. What the hell, I charged you more than eleven, who wouldn't want you to stand up, and don't buy from me in the future! "

"When I'm an idiot of the emperor, a clock produced by me here, shipped to Nanjing or Beijing, at least three times the profit, why, I don't want to do it, I don't want to do it, you say, I will take all the goods you ordered back!"

"Why, think that I don't know how to sell myself!"

When Wang Xuan got angry, he scolded these people like his grandson, but no one dared to speak out.

Just now everyone was just surprised. In fact, no one will do it if they give up their business channels. Just like what Wang Xuan said, it is a profitable business. Not to mention, even the cheapest cloth , Shipping to the north is more than a quarter of the profit, even if it is charged eleven, there is still a lot of profit.

The more these people know, the more they know that in business, as long as there are good things and good channels, the profits are much greater than farming.
