Chapter 39 Local Game

"Hahahaha...... What a Li Fengjie, he really knows how to play! ”

After reading the letter sent by Li Fengjie, Zhang De laughed, and then handed over the letter, the staff were also strange, and they took the letter less than once, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter in the conference room.

"'Li Jiangbei' is really narrow."

"This arranges people, people still have to obediently give the money, and they have to pile up smiling faces, and they really have nothing to say."

"Qian Gu, this plague animal, I'm afraid that if you don't have to bite a few teeth, you will have to bite a few teeth."

"Actually, it's okay to be like this, maybe the matter of 'tax resistance' will be exposed."

"How?"

"The imperial history is in the last book, only saying that the official of the Yamen of the Taxation Department has a 'bad reputation' and 'has been criticized', and the Hongwen Pavilion will always come out to mediate, and when the time comes, he will ask the emperor for advice, such things, that is, sit down and talk, and play a board on both sides, which is also considered an account."

All the staff and adjutant officers are thinking deeply, which is also a very possible thing.

Originally, someone wanted to engage in Qian Gu, but because of the death of a small official, this matter changed from "justice" to "rebellion", and the court would not negotiate with "rebellion".

But now, because Boss Qian has the potential to become a "demon in the sex", it is impossible for Hongwen Pavilion, as the emperor's royal secretary group, to let this kind of "insulting Shengming" goods swagger through the market. This situation, no matter how big the contradiction, must be braked, and then the fire will be lowered.

As for whether or not the "tax" should be adjusted, whether it should be reduced, where it should be adjusted, and how much it should be reduced, it is necessary to discuss it. The magistrate found the "great rich" and "village sage", and after drawing up a "common discussion", he then made it clear to the peak, and the emperor decided whether to raise a hand or cut a knife at his discretion.

It is equivalent to saying that there is a step down on both sides, doesn't the boss have something to deal with, the big guys all "boycott" first, and go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers, as for whether to liquidate or not, it is not to look at their respective capital.

Sure enough, the enthusiasm for "tax resistance" has been delayed again and again, and the people who "resist taxes" have also dispersed. The wife and children are hot on the kang, and a stream of blood comes up, and the momentum is over, and if you want to gather strength, you are not so courageous.

"Envoy, can this 'tax resistance' be regarded as a tiger's head? I thought that after this thing broke out, how could it become the second in 'Juye County'. ”

Everyone looked at Zhang De, but Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Don't look at the momentum, just think about how 'tax resistance' is." Who wants to be 'tax resistant'? It's not necessarily the head of the head, or the workers in the workshop? Working for four, five, six or seven hours a day, where does he have the strength to make trouble with the owner? ”

"Or do you mean that those who are being clamoured out are actually a nest?"

"Today's salt merchants, cloth merchants, sugar merchants, wine merchants, dry goods merchants, and logistics merchants in Huaiyang...... Which one is not a person who has raised a bunch of people? These troublemakers are all contributing their own money and efforts, at most a few Jianghuai tycoons, and maybe there are a few people in Jiangnan, but after all, they will not be too powerful. These people are not asking for an official hat, they are just asking for money. ”

After speaking, Zhang De looked at the crowd, "How do you think you can make trouble?" If in previous years, it was just a matter of the local government hooking up a few people and taking a few businessmen at will? ”

"But now a businessman who can show off his wealth in a grand manner, who doesn't have a backer behind him? The capital can't use its strength, and it has dragged on for a long time, isn't it because there are people in the local area? To put it bluntly, four words: collusion between officials and businessmen. ”

Lao Zhang raised four fingers, "The magistrate doesn't look at the 'taxes' taken by the tax collection department, and when the Lijin Yamen was still there, it wasn't that no one went to rob the Lijin boat, but have you heard that a few cases have been solved?" Not to mention far away, in our Wuhan territory, the water thieves caught in the old years, which one is not a person in the yamen who is ventilated? ”

"What does the envoy mean is that this time it's not the businessmen who want to 'resist taxes', but the local people who want a piece of the pie?"

"You can say that, but not all. Merchants are willing to 'resist taxes' and cooperate, and the share that is shared by the local government is probably less. Subtract a little bit for the emperor and give a little less to the locality, and if you add these two, won't it be less? ”

In this way, everyone reacted, and it was not the yamen of the tax collection department and the businessmen who were fighting, but the yamen of the tax collection department and the local officials and businessmen on the front line of the South Canal had to fight closely.

It's no wonder that it has been delayed again and again, and those who "resist taxes" can still drag it out without dying.

It is best to kill Qian Valley, but if you can't kill Qian Valley, the central government must appease it.

"Suppressing and appeasing at the same time", is the court wise?

War must be appeased, and so must tax payment.

If the tax is too high, there may be people who evade it; The tax is a little lower, and in order to reduce the risk, there will be some people who are willing to pay obediently.

"In this way, I'm afraid that in addition to Jianghuai, Jiangnan also has it."

"This is a trouble, at most a few coolies will go in, and the money from the tax reduction in the future will matter."

"No wonder 'Editor-in-Chief Li' came out to collect the accounts, and both sides were 'boycotts and truces', but they all had to borrow the slope to get off the donkey."

Sooner or later, this kind of game between the central and local governments will form a balance, and this balance is a "consensus." In the long run, sooner or later, a huge southeastern government and business group will be formed, and finally it will evolve into an invisible "country within a country".

It's just that the development of the Zhenguan Dynasty is unrecognizable, and it is not easy to form a southeast government and business group. After all, the place with the highest economic vitality in the world has nothing to do with the southeast, and it is not enough for Wuhan to package the officials and businessmen of Suzhou and Hangzhou.

In fact, the Jiangnan family represented by Lao Zhang's "mentor" Lu Deming is still quite "life-saving", and Wuhan has taken advantage of the situation, that is, in less than ten years, it is the situation of "high morale", and it has not yet skillfully played all kinds of strange games in the system.

Again, it is impossible for the scholars in Shandong and Jiangnan to be mixed with the Wuhan turtles, and the circle is too exclusive.

Moreover, a certain local dog, who was also born in Jiangnan, delegated the right to education to Cangtou Qianshou quite obscenely, which made it more and more difficult for the children of Shandong and Jiangnan Shi clans to pretend to be forced.

In order to expand his "basic plate", Li Dong made the great cause of "Emperor of the Ages" solid, and naturally the family family he wanted to do was fragmented, so he naturally fit in with a certain earth dog.

Although sooner or later it is also a "brave meeting", a hard bridge and a hard horse, but this situation does not matter whether the royal family or the Wuhan family is extremely eager to chop up the wealthy family, and then eat it dry and wipe it clean.

It's a pity that although the idea is good, the process is quite arduous, unlike the local dog who can urinate and have fun in the place, Li Dong has made moves with these "loyal ministers and good generals", and it will become more and more "tug-of-war" in the future.

The "tax resistance" incident is just a typical example of the "tug-of-war."

As the Wuhan bureaucrats speculated, Qian Gu arrived in Yangtze County, met Lao Li and Li Fengjie successively, and when he left, he shook hands with Li Fengjie very sincerely and said goodbye: "Thank you! ”
