Chapter 967 - Inland Revenue Department

readx;

At that time, the so-called rebuilding of a Tianjin Wei was half a joke, who would have thought that it would be mentioned again today. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

However, Wang Tong did not dare to deal with the past with a joking attitude this time, because at the court meeting, the household department Shangshu mentioned that His Majesty is the world, and the inner treasury is the national treasury, and His Majesty should not accumulate property, but should deliver the treasury goods to the state.

The righteousness of the Hubu Shangshu is awe-inspiring, but he didn't think that the Wanli Emperor was immediately furious, grabbed a pen holder next to him and smashed it, the pen holder is carved from Yu stone, the weight is not light, and the Wanli Emperor's arm strength is not weak, and there is also a quasi-head, if it hits this time, it is not good to immediately break the head and bleed, or Wang Tong's eyes are fast, and he ripped the Hubu Shangshu away, and whether it was a eunuch or a minister at the court meeting, he knelt down, and said in unison: "Your Majesty is angry!" ā€

"I am in Tianjin Wei, I collected some silver in Guihua City, and my life is more relaxed, you can't see it, there was Tianjin Wei in the past? Was there a naturalized city once upon a time? Can't you live your days? It's not that one by one wants to earn more and pay less, this world is not only mine, but also yours, and you are willing to be corrupted like this!? ā€

Emperor Wanli's scolding made the following Hubu Shangshu turn from a red face to a miserable face, and finally kowtowed to the ground, Emperor Wanli sneered and continued: "The tax has been reduced for three consecutive years, if it is less next year, there is no need for you to do this errand, just return to your hometown." ā€

Seeing that there were cabinet scholars who wanted to speak, Emperor Wanli said again: "The internal officials I sent to Lianghuai have already sent a letter, saying that this year's salt tax silver can also be four million, why, it's not that three inspections have been cut, and a few books have been cut in the salt administration yamen, which is all honest, no matter how hard you do it, there are many capable people in the palace, and they are all sent out!" ā€

The palace sent tax supervisors, mine supervisors and other eunuchs who were specifically responsible for collecting taxes to the place, which was the most resistant between the courtiers and the locality, and was considered to be a bad government.

Song Zhen, the head of the household, was even more pale, he did this position not long ago, the taxes became less, and the treasury became empty, he couldn't think of any way, so he pondered to make a fuss about the royal treasury, anyway, he pushed the responsibility to the royal family, he had no responsibility, and he could get the two financial resources of Tianjin Wei and Naturalization City, not only the current embarrassing situation could be solved, but he could also get a lot of benefits.

However, after all, he is a new appointment, and some taboos are not so clear, and he touched the mold as soon as he came up, and it also caused Emperor Wanli's words.

Eunuchs go to the local area to collect money, often do not pay attention to any means, whoever has money will start with whom, the local rich are naturally Haoshen clan, officials' relatives, eunuchs to the local search Cao, the biggest loss is the official, so the courtiers have to fight for this matter every time.

This time, Song Zhen caused this incident, and he will inevitably be hostile to officials from top to bottom, and there will be more troubles in the future.

Song Zhen, the head of the household department, put forward the proposal of supplementing the treasury in the inner treasury, it was his own responsibility to shirk his responsibility in order to be in the limelight, and everyone had a lot of thoughts about seeing jokes, he couldn't count the Shen Shixing series, nor could he count the Wang Xuan department, but someone was sick and vacant, and he happened to have the qualifications to make up for it, just looking at the jokes, but he heard that the Wanli Emperor wanted to send eunuchs below to collect money, which was a matter that violated everyone's interests, and he had to fight for it on the basis of reason.

There are precedents but no legal principles for sending internal officials to collect taxes at the local level, and it will definitely make the local government boiling and unable to clean up, which is really troublesome.

And with the current situation, I am afraid that Tian Yi, the eunuch who is in charge of the seal, will not support it, Wang Tong has been silent on the side, and Emperor Wanli did not insist on his own motion, but just scattered the dynasty in a huff.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, as usual, Wang Tong summoned him privately, and then mentioned the rebuilding of Tianjin Weiyuan.

The current situation is not to discuss things calmly, but to find a reason to prevaricate the past, Wang Tong and Emperor Wanli have been together for too long, knowing that the emperor is losing his temper now, and he will deal with the past.

Wang Tong's thoughts were moving rapidly, in fact, there were several immediate methods at the moment, such as the comprehensive rollout of Tianjin's Weishang tax, but this would have a real damage to his own system, and Wang Tong was unwilling to do it, and then there was the various taxes on the side of the Naturalization City from the inner treasury to the national treasury, but this Wanli Emperor was definitely unwilling to do it.

"Your Majesty, how about the implementation of the peace sign in the world?"

The shop hangs a safe brand, you can keep it safe, you can find Jinyiwei to complain in case of trouble, Daming has no commercial tax, and officials are ashamed of collecting more taxes, but the extortion of officials and servants on the store is extremely common, this Ping'an brand is actually another way of commercial tax, and at the same time through the authority of Jinyiwei to get rid of some bad rules.

"Tian Yi, what do you think?"

"Long live the Lord, Beijing and Tianjin can collect 300,000 taels of Ping An brand every year, and 150,000 taels are allocated to the Department of Public Security and Tianjin Wei, if the world implements this rule, there are still more than 3 million taels per year, but now this Ping An brand is collected by the messengers of Jinyiwei, if it is extended to all provinces in the world, will it also be done by Jinyiwei? At present, Jinyiwei is stationed in thousands of households in each province, if the collection is to be stationed in each county, if it is not collected by Jinyiwei, there are many shady scenes below, will it benefit the country but harm the people? Your Majesty, please think again! ā€

Tian Yi is more than forty years old, he is in the prime of life, his voice is less sharp, but a little thick, he asked a few words, and he has already explained the matter.

Emperor Wanli fell into deep thought, Wang Tong stood there with his hands bowed, but his brows were furrowed, Tian Yi's words were out of public intentions everywhere, but there was a meaning in it, if the peace brand was spread, if it was done according to the current regulations, the power of Jinyiwei would expand dramatically.

The most important thing for the Son of Heaven is to maintain balance, Wang Tong's weight is already a problem, the Ping An brand is spreading, the power of Jinyiwei is expanding, and Wang Tong's power is further expanded, and Emperor Wanli naturally does not want to see it.

Analyzing specific things, Tian Yi is right, but he can say it from another angle, and now such a statement is obviously aimed at Wang Tong.

Tian Yi and Wang Tong are not in the same camp, and Wang Tong does not expect the other party to be friendly with him, but he did not expect that the other party has hostility in his heart.

"Although this method is feasible, it can make Jinyiwei all over the world, how can it take a few years, far from water can quench the thirst of the near, let's think of other ways!"

Although Wanli denied it with this reason, it was obvious that Tian Yi said that he was moved, Wang Tong looked up and saw that Tian Yi was staring at him, and the anxious look on Emperor Wanli's face did not diminish at all.

Before Emperor Wanli continued to ask, Wang Tong had a smile on his face, and continued gently: "Your Majesty, the duties of Jinyiwei are internal security, detectives, and maintaining law and order. This tax is reduced every year, and such a trend of such a major event is very harmful to the society of the country. ā€

"Tell me what to do, I see these things every day."

Emperor Wanli urged angrily, Wang Tong nodded with a smile, and said: "Your Majesty, the major matter related to the country's society is naturally the most reassuring for the people in the palace to do, it is better to set up a new yamen, in charge of the world's taxation, in order to prevent the local government, this yamen is not under the jurisdiction of the governor Fubu political envoy, but directly controlled by the inner court, two capitals and thirteen provinces, provinces, governments, prefectures, counties, tax officials at all levels are not appointed by the locality, but the yamen directly appointed, the local has no right to interfere, and the amount of taxes collected determines the assessment of the promotion ......, Wang Tong only said a few words, Emperor Wanli was already fascinated by listening, Wang Tong said this, Tian Yi couldn't help but interject and said: "If this is the case, in order to seek promotion, I am afraid that it will be a layer of tyranny, and when the time comes, it will inevitably provoke chaos, and it will not become a bad government." ā€

This Tian Yi is really a few ways with the Qingliu in the court, and he can't collect a penny, it's really a mess, the court has no money to pay, and he can't even suppress it, so what can he say.

"Set the tax amount, there is a tax base everywhere, and after the tax base is verified, the tax amount is set, and the tax amount is more than the tax amount, that is his ability, if it is short, it is his fault, and the establishment of this yamen can be used to check the world's acres again, and clarify the world's shop business."

Emperor Wanli nodded again and again, then clapped his hands and said: "This idea is good, you can count it in one fell swoop, what is the name of this yamen?" ā€

"Your Majesty, how is the IRS? "The War Bureau, the Silver Bureau, and the Wine and Vinegar Noodle Bureau are good, and these 24 yamen will become 25 yamen in the future." ā€

Emperor Wanli nodded with a smile and said, "Bureau", the name of the official office, is only used as a yamen related to the inner court, and this National Taxation Bureau is the inner court when you hear it.

"Long live Lord, Lord Wang's method is wonderful, but such a big yamen from Beijing to the county below, I don't know how much time it will take from preparation to establishment, not to mention this, I am afraid that the entanglement between the court and China will accumulate for years, and there is still a way to achieve results in the right time."

Tian Yi said again, Emperor Wanli glanced back, his expression was faint, Tian Yi's body trembled, bowed and retreated, Emperor Wanli turned his head, but followed Tian Yi's words and said: "Wang Tong, there is still a way to achieve quick results, seeing that the silver taro in this treasury is decreasing little by little, although it is not a big problem now, but I am anxious!" ā€

Emperor Wanli has a kind of obsession with taxation, which is not today, but today's controversy in the court has made Emperor Wanli a little bit.

"Your Majesty, how about the opening of Songjiang?"

Wang Tong's brain flashed and blurted out.! ~!
