Chapter 453 - Gambling Franchise, Dirty Money Used for Good Things (Part II)

High investment, high risk, but the return may not necessarily be high, plus a heavy tax and light profit.

What does Liu Xing want to do? Is this regulating the gambling industry, or is it going to make everyone who wants to open a gambling house give up the idea of running a casino?

The answer, of course, is certain. Liu Xing didn't want any harmful affairs to continue to exist in the world he was in charge of.

Gambling is harmful, to a terrible extent.

Since he is an ugly, a business full of filth, even full of blood and tears. People in the world don't want to lose, but Liu Xing wants to use such a soft knife to gradually eradicate it.

If it is only to make the input of the gambling industry disproportionate to the output, thus forcing the national gambling industry to languish and eventually disappear, there is no need to make so many rules and regulations first.

Just when Liang Xing, Lei Zhen and others read out Liu Xing's true intentions of "gambling franchise", Liu Xing's last hand followed.

Casino money is taxed, but that money itself is dirty. Dirty money cannot be used directly by the imperial court. is different from the "Miss" business, the "Miss" business is more about harming others, not necessarily harming yourself.

However, people who work in the gambling industry often harm others as well as themselves.

Today, the court took their dirty money, so what if they harm others and themselves in the future? The court should not care about those people.

The answer is yes, yes. But how to manage it, Liu Xing has the final say.

Many of the people who have done evil in the past, even if they can live to old age, may not have the life to enjoy everything that the current universal security system of the Northern Dynasties provides.

Those who harm others and themselves often decide that they will not be seen by society and others in the end because of their actions. Such a group of people will inevitably not be tolerated and accepted by officials everywhere. Ended up with no one to take care of it.

Even when they get old. The father is kind to the son, and the father is not kind, and the son will not be filial. As a result, his children are disgusted with the bad things he did when he was young and the things he used dirty means to make money. and is unwilling to sincerely support the elderly for him and be a filial son and grandson.

In order to avoid this situation, Liu Xing's last hand made it clear that the gambling tax should be used to build a wholehearted Tzu Chi system to protect the unemployed, the old and the young.

In order to distinguish it from the Tzu Chi Association established by the previous "Miss" bank, this time Liu Xing officially set up a wholehearted name and wholehearted organization: the Great Song Fraternity Charity Association.

Fraternity, this word was not coined by Liu Xing on a whim, nor was it brought from later generations.

First of all, there was the "Book of Filial Piety. The "Three Talents Chapter" says: The first king saw that the people could be transformed. Therefore, fraternity is the first, and the people do not leave their relatives behind.

Then Cao Zhi, the sad genius of the Three Kingdoms era and the author of the seven-step poem, also wrote in "When You Want to Travel to the South Mountain": The elderly can be fratern, and the world will send them to them.

And the closest person to the present day is the one who put forward the idea of fraternity. It is Ouyang Xiu, the former prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty and the descendant of the descendant who has been swept away by Liu Xing in this Bianjing City.

He wrote in the second part of "Begging Out of the Table": Although the courtiers hear that the foolishness is small and the sincerity is subtle, they can move the sky; Great benevolence and selflessness, not against things.

Broad-minded, love the world. The ancient sages had words, the geniuses of the Three Kingdoms lobbied, and the famous ministers of the previous dynasties also clearly put it forward.

This time, Liu Xing will use the word "fraternity" as a symbol, as well as a standard and rule of conduct, to use the gambling tax to establish a new charity.

Although the purpose of this charity is also to help the weak and the poor, it is clearly designated as the elderly and those who have nothing to support, which is to leave a way out for those who did harm to others and themselves when they were young. For those who have done many evils will have no one to turn to when they grow old.

Even if there is something to rely on. I'm afraid that most of the people who rely on him are also the money in his pocket. If you have money, you are Lao Tzu, and if you don't have money, you are your grandson. Once the money is drained. Or will there be nowhere to go.

So what kind of rescue method will these people have in the future? First, the income from the gambling tax in the entire territory of the Northern Dynasties was handed over to the yamen of the local state capitals, and at least one "lonely old man's house" was established in each county first. See those who are old and helpless and take them in.

Second, the birth, old age, sickness and death of those who enter the "orphan center" are all borne by the Fraternity Charity Association.

Third, if the children of the "lonely elderly" do not support the elderly, then at the same time, they will be disqualified from enjoying all the policies benefiting the people in the Northern Dynasties. The money saved by the abolition of those "unfilial descendants" will be transferred to the Charity of Fraternity to strengthen the financial capacity of the charity, so as to ensure that the charity can survive for a long time and not be a flash in the pan.

If there is no one for the old, there will be one for the young who have nothing to rely on.

Wars, famines, and plagues have created a large number of orphans in the land of the Northern Dynasties. Even gambling owners in the process of operating casinos can cause many families to go bankrupt and the whole family to be displaced, thus breeding many new orphans.

Since the lonely elderly are taken care of, Liu Xing set the second purpose of the Fraternity Charity Association, which is to help orphans specially.

These orphans will be divided into three main categories.

The first is war orphans. Except for the descendants of soldiers in the "Military Preparation Law" issued by the imperial court, all other children whose parents have died, no relatives, no reason, and no one to raise due to the war will be adopted by at least one orphanage built in each county town.

Such children will be supported by the Charity Society from the date of adoption to study and go to school. and to provide for food, clothing, medical care, and so on, until they reach the age of sixteen and are no longer studying.

The second is other orphans. In this column, disasters and plagues will be the main causes, followed by children who are temporarily deprived of their parents due to the destruction of their families due to the fault of their parents.

These children may not be completely and truly helpless. But Liu Xing firmly believes in a saying in his previous life: mutton can't stick to dog meat.

It is difficult for these children who are not parents and direct relatives to raise them wholeheartedly.

Then it is necessary to gather them, from education, to food, clothing, housing and transportation, all of which will be temporarily undertaken by the Charity Society.

But these children are different from the first type of children, they will be adults in the future, and they will need to spend their lives "feeding back to the crows" of the fraternity charity. In other words, when these children do their jobs in the future, one-twentieth of their monthly salary will be directly included in the income of the Charity Society.

Of course, those who should be nurtured and those who do not, and the relatives of these children should not want to completely evade their responsibilities. From the time the child is admitted to the orphanage, one-twentieth of the income of the entire family of those people will be directly transferred to the charity. It is not only a punishment, but also a need to ensure the sustainable development of the charity. (To be continued.) )
