I, the patron saint of the frontier of the Tang Dynasty, was forced to rebel

Chapter 65 Military Corruption, Severe Investigation and Severe Action

tax?

Zhuge Liang and the others immediately understood, and hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

"King Xian, now is not the time to change the system, otherwise there will be big troubles!"

"What do you mean?" Qin Mu frowned slightly, attaching great importance to the tax reform.

However, as long as taxes are involved, there will inevitably be problems among the people.

Think about yourself or too anxious.

Zhuge Liang lowered his eyebrows and glanced around, "At present, although the virtuous king has the land of five continents, he has no real name. If the tax reform is carried out rashly, the gentry and gentry will never agree."

"The common people's coercion towards the aristocratic family is deeply rooted. Once they are fooled, the five continents will be in chaos and the court will take advantage of it!"

"For those who exist, the relevant manpower is insufficient, and such a huge goal is difficult to achieve in a short period of time."

Qin Mu frowned more and more.

As a modern thinking person, I didn't think so much at all.

According to what Zhuge Liang said, this matter is really hopeless.
"Your Majesty, Lord Lin please see me!"

At the door, came the voice of the guard.

Qin Mu immediately waved his hand, "Come in."

"Lin Quan, do you think the tax reform can be carried out now?"

Tax Reform?

Lin Quan opened his mouth slightly, was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the serious Zhuge Liang beside him.

In the end, he shook his head.

"My lord, the current situation is not suitable for these things, we need stability."

"Even you don't think so?"

"President Wang, what do you think?" Qin Mu changed the subject and looked at Wang Shanhe who had been silent all this time.

"It is inconvenient for my subordinates to participate in political affairs."

Wang Shanhe is really an old fox, he immediately thought of a way to escape.

"No, you have the right to participate in everything that involves business, especially related laws."

"I"

No more tricks.

Wang Shanhe sighed in his heart, since he couldn't hide, he could only
"The subordinates believe that what Prime Minister Zhuge said is very reasonable!"

"So, when is the right time?"

Qin Mu was a little unhappy, being refuted by a group of people for the first time.

The crowd fell silent.

No one wants to be the first bird
"Why, didn't you say it well just now, why don't you say anything now?"

"As an official, why do you have to be timid? How can you do things for the people with such a posture?"

"Say what you have, and only by brainstorming can the results be discussed."

"Look what you look like!"

"From you, I can see how bad the bureaucratic system of the Tang Dynasty is. Is it possible that you also want to learn from them?"

After saying those words, everyone was so startled that they immediately knelt on the ground.

"The virtuous king calm down!"

"Currently, it is really not suitable for tax reform!"

"What Master Zhuge said is very true. If you don't solve the squire Shihao and truly control the Tang Dynasty, this tax reform is out of the question!"

Qin Mu Shun Shun's eyes swept over the officials.

"Hmph! I thought you were all dumb, but that's right. It's better to be blunt than to act stupid!"

"Uh"

Everyone raised their heads slightly, their faces full of astonishment.

Looking at it this way, King Xian seems to be... not angry.

"Let's all get up, since we can't change it, let's talk about how to solve the military expenditure."

"Your Majesty, the next time you come here is also for the military."

Suddenly, Lin Quan spoke.

"Say."

"Recently, a large number of reports are all about the military, involving corruption of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver"

boom!
Before he finished speaking, Qin Mu suddenly punched the table.

The thick tabletop immediately cracked.

"The military, there is actually corruption! I personally inspect it every few days and ask you to watch it strictly. Is this the result?"

"Your Majesty, there is a reason for this problem. The 10 taels of silver was not really corrupted."

"What do you mean, don't play around with me!"

Lin Quan was shocked, "The silver was supposed to be used for scientific research, but it was embezzled privately."

"What else is there to say, embezzle military funds, kill!"

A cold and stern breath quickly enveloped the entire hall.

A group of officials trembled, but Lin Quan sighed, "That official, because his income is not high, his sister before entering the military camp was abducted and sold in a brothel, and he had no choice but to use military funds to redeem him!"

Qin Mu frowned, "Need hundreds of thousands of silver?"

"According to the investigation, this amount of money is not enough at all, the brothel asks for 30 yuan!"

Speaking of this, Lin Quan's face was full of anger.

"This place of fireworks in Liuxiang is really hateful, because of them, I don't know how many daughters of good families have been trafficked, forced, and ruined their lives."

"Why didn't he ask you to deal with it?"

"Don't dare."

Two words mean a lot.

In this era, the division of ranks is very strict, and the young ones have no money or strength, and they don't even have the courage to talk to their superiors.

With a lot of money in hand, he was eventually forced to disobey the military law.

How sad!

"What about people?"

"He has been sent to prison, and all the money has been recovered. As for his sister, he is safe for the time being." Lin Quan responded.

Qin Mu nodded, "Military law cannot be violated, but the incident has a reason and should be dealt with lightly."

"The virtuous king is holy."

"No!"

Before a group of people had time to flatter, Zhuge Liang stopped them immediately.

"Your Majesty, the law is ruthless. If you deal with it lightly this time, then there will be more corruption in the military in the future. Let everyone know that even if there is a reason, you can't violate the military law!"

Zhuge Liang cupped his hands, "I think it should be done according to the law, and everyone should watch it as a warning!"

Qin Mu also understood, although he couldn't bear it.

However, if there is one, there are two.
"You deal with this matter. In addition, set up a special team to be responsible for investigating all the situations of the soldiers, and try to help solve them as much as possible."

As he said that, his face turned cold.

"From tomorrow onwards, the place of Fireworks and Willow Alley will not be under the protection of the government. Anyone who opens in Wuzhou will be taxed heavily and will be strictly investigated for crimes!"

It's not that he doesn't want to outright ban this stuff.

The problem is that there is no way to deal with the current situation. This kind of local network is extremely huge, and it will definitely not be a good idea to make a rash move.

Therefore, start the investigation first, and with solid evidence, let the people start to resent.
At that time, the people will drown them with saliva without the government making a sound!
"Let's not talk about these things, military expenditures, do you have any suggestions?"

The voice fell, and the audience fell silent.

When it comes to silver, they know how to play dumb better than anyone else.

Seeing this, Qin Mu didn't know what to say.

The military expenditure is jointly contributed by everyone, but now except for the bank can provide a little, other poor people have to use it as pants.

"Lin Quan, how many kilometers has the cement road been laid?"

"Eh, it's less than [-] kilometers, but these roads connect five continents."

"very good!"

Qin Mu was overjoyed immediately, and an idea popped up in his mind.

In the previous life, one of the most profitable industries was definitely real estate!
In the land of five continents, because of the large number of migrant workers, the population flow is large and the market is large, and the number of wealthy people is gradually increasing.

Therefore, a problem has been caused, the house is in short supply.

That being the case, why not start real estate development in the name of the City Lord's Mansion!
