"Exhaust you bastard!" Hong Tao should not have seen all this, let alone take the initiative to mention the matter of increasing manpower.

He was jealous of the appearance of this phoenix, and the name of the poet was all hated. In his eyes, a man who looks more handsome than himself deserves to die from fifteen to fifty years old!

The Jews have completed the new tax code, and they are quite trustworthy in this regard, and they did not plant deliberate mines in it, at least Hong Tao did not see it.

Their tax laws are fundamentally different from those of the Great Song Dynasty, and they do not rely much on administrative orders, but tend to rely entirely on economic means to regulate and control. For example, in terms of the tax rate of grain, according to the provisions of the new tax law, the grain tax is the highest level, which is much higher than the original 20 draws, and the same as gold.

In this way, few merchants will come to Huangzhou and Ganliang Road to do grain trading, and the price difference between the two places will not only make no money but also lose a lot.

The purpose of setting the tax rate in this way is to stabilize the local grain price, and in this regard, they do not need to listen to the importance of grain, and at the same time, they can see that Huangzhou and Ganlianglu are not an economic model based on grain production.

Therefore, the tax rate on industrial products such as woolen textiles, ironware, glass, candles, soap, and canned food is much lower, and the cost of foreign caravans is encouraged to purchase more.

However, these rates are not fixed, they are subject to change at any time, and will be written in white chalk on the large blackboard at the city gate. This blackboard is called the Blackboard Newspaper, and it is dedicated to publishing the movements of the government.

Whether it's a local or a foreigner, whether it's a first-time visitor or a frequent walker, no one needs to ask, just stand under this huge blackboard for two quarters of an hour, and spend a few pennies to ask for an interpreter to read the words on the blackboard, and you can basically know the new rules at this moment.

What about the old rules? The government doesn't care about this, because someone has already done it first. Several pioneers on the east side of the south gate of Liangzhou City no longer rely on farming, and have built several wooden houses on their own land.

Some of them are used as restaurants, and some of them are used as restaurants and teahouses, and the business is quite prosperous. Staying, stocking, and eating here can enjoy a paid service, which is to explain the local law, which is very popular with merchants.

This has to be thanks to the Liangzhou military management of Fu'er, the city lacks the necessary civilian service facilities. Regarding this matter, Wang Er suggested that if he could also open two mansions and restaurants, it would definitely be more prosperous than the small shops of pioneers outside the city.

"The army is supported by the state, and the government is supported by taxes, so why should it compete with the people? If the government does whatever it sees to make money, and the people can't compete at all, then how should they live? ”

Wang Er actually mentioned it so casually, she couldn't figure out what the government should do and what it shouldn't do. However, because of this private suggestion, Hong Tao summoned Liu Song, the governor of Huangzhou, Jiang Dalang, the magistrate of Maweicheng, and most of the members of the Youth League and the Promotion Society to Liangzhou for a special meeting and discussion.

"If the government has no money, it won't be easy to deal with big things, right?" Wang Er's suggestion actually represents the thoughts of many people, whoever is in charge likes to have money in their hands, not for the sake of greedy ink, but it can be allocated at any time, and it is convenient to do anything.

Jiang Dalang had a lot to say in this regard, because he was already about to be tossed crazy by the 7-person representatives of Mawei City. They wanted to build a new market to make Mawei City look more orderly, they muttered for several days, but they came up with a lot of data, and Leng said that the current market is completely sufficient, and there is no need to spend money to build a new one.

However, the money was not saved, and the deputies said that the road to the soda plant was too bad, so it could be repaired. Jiang Erlang endured several times and did not use a veto, but he was very unhappy, who is the county magistrate and who are the people?

The source of this depression is Lord Shuaisi's bad idea, and he has to get some kind of representative system. I didn't see it at the time, but this thing has a lot of momentum!

Now that the government is not allowed to do business, Jiang Dalang wants to ask how to train the new army to resist the Western Xia if Lord Shuai Si does not have so much industry. But after plucking up the courage for a long time, I still didn't dare to say it, so I could only play a side ball more vaguely.

"This question has to be said twice, it is true that the official can make money, but who dares to stand up and guarantee that he will use his own money to train soldiers to fight? This is just a way to do it, and if you want to maintain long-term peace and stability, you can't always rely on individuals to raise soldiers. If this official is ordered to step down one day, won't Huangzhou and Ganliang Road be just a few days away! There has to be a rule that everyone is the same, so that it can be passed down from generation to generation. The government has no money to deal with major events, so it can borrow from the people. As long as the money is used in the right place, the official feels that the people will not be stingy. After all, this is their homeland, and officials can be deployed at will, so can the people move at any time? ”

Hong Tao deliberately called so many people to the meeting, not to discuss whether Wang Er's suggestion was right or not, but to take this opportunity to talk about how to be a good manager according to the new rules. In the past, the official system was not easy to use, and it was necessary to keep pace with the times.

Otherwise, as soon as he leaves, he will be replaced by a more conservative-minded Great Song Dynasty official to preside over the work, and the new policies of Huangzhou and Ganliang Road will immediately fall apart. Only by getting the administrators and the people to get used to and agree with the new policy can it be possible to preserve this achievement and prevent it from being easily wasted.

"Borrow money from the people...... I'm afraid that except for the prestige of adults, no one else has the ability to do this. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Jiang Dalang was dumbfounded, but most of the people present were a little disappointed. Speaking of which, I thought that Lord Shuai Si could have any tricks, this method even a small official understood the result, and it was impossible at all.

Dynasties have only heard of the government raising taxes on the people, or simply arresting the people for their work and borrowing money? Who dares to borrow it, what if it is not returned? Isn't it a joke to let the people go to the state government to move things to pay off their debts?

"Ha, I'll just think you're praising me. This matter can't be proved by saying, so let's do it, if the official doesn't come forward, Liu Zhizhou and Ziju will handle it, and borrow money from the people in the name of Huangzhou Bank, let's see how it works? ”

For everyone's disappointment, Hong Tao saw it in his eyes and felt happy in his heart. He is not a cheap bone, but he feels that there are no sycophants and sloppy people in his subordinates, and he is very relieved.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you can learn slowly, it doesn't matter if you can't learn, you can go to other jobs. But if a person is not right-minded, will do whatever it takes to take power, and doesn't want to be cheeky, he is really hopeless. The stronger the ability of such a person, the more harmful it is, and no matter how smart he is, he cannot be reused.

"One more question, is there anyone who is willing to bet with the official that the gambling money can be borrowed, not only will they not lose, but the government will make money in the end. Note that the government is not allowed to use any coercive means, nor can it give any preferential policies to creditors, but only promises reasonable interest. ”

Seeing that everyone was staring at each other without squeaking, Hong Tao decided to stimulate them again. The majority of officials here are young, full of new ideas but inexperienced. Being able to gamble on their adoptive father and teacher is not a fear but an honor for them.

"The subordinate gambled, a gold coin!" Wang Shi took the lead in expressing his position, if his adoptive father went to borrow money himself, she must believe that he could borrow it. However, let the Huangzhou Bank come forward to lend, and it is not allowed to give preferential policies, and it has to pay interest, and it can still make money in the end, which is impossible to calculate no matter which method of arithmetic is used.

"One more for my subordinates!" Wang Er and Wang Shi are a pair of freaks who are in cahoots, and since one wants to take risks, the other must follow.

"My lord, the last general is disrespectful...... Count me in two! Jiang Erlang's resentment in his heart was very strong, and he was very happy to see the horse eat deflated.

It's not that he is against the New Deal, but he thinks it's a bit too much, and he can take this opportunity to defeat the horse, maybe he can make the New Deal a little more restrained, and by the way, he can also make himself a little more comfortable as a city lord. For this goal, he not only bet on all his belongings, but also looked at Jiang Erlang.

"The last general dares to ask, can you bet on the adult's side?" Jiang Erlang didn't care much about government affairs, and he didn't understand what these things meant. But he has his own opinions on the gamble made by Lord Shuaiji, not only did he not bet with his brother, but he also stood on the opposite side.

"What do you think, this official has always eaten alone. The ancients fought tiger brothers, fathers and sons, and sold your brother for a gold coin? ”

Hong Tao is really not happy to find allies when betting, the more people who support him, the less his income, to win the public, to kill the Quartet is the meaning of being a banker.
