No matter Yangzhou or anywhere else, the wealth of the world is in the hands of the gate lords, Yangzhou's silk, tea, grain, cotton cloth, etc., more than eighty percent are in the hands of the gate valve clan, and the gate valve clan is exempt from taxes.

Gu Wei's suggestions include several aspects:

First, clean up the various silk and satin cloth villages in Yangzhou, tea and grain and other businesses;

second, to determine the tax system;

Third, strengthen the taxation of all sales links such as silk and satin cloth, tea, and grain;

Fourth, the tax system should be revised, the new salt tax system is 10 taxes and 1 tax, while the ratio of 8 taxes and 1 should be adopted for silk and satin cloth villages, while the tax system for grain will remain unchanged;

Fifth, check the accounts of local tax cards;

There are all kinds of articles, a total of five, so that the sentence can't help sighing in his heart, once these articles are implemented, the imperial court's finance and taxation will definitely be able to increase the income by more than two times.

The stakes of these articles are that they look very ordinary, and it looks like nothing to clean up the merchants, but in fact, most of these businesses are under the control of the gate valve clan, and the shopkeeper of many businesses is also a name, and in fact, all of them are large and small gate lord clans, Gu Wei's strategy is undoubtedly to snatch food from the mouth of the gate lord clan.

What's more beneficial is the third article, the tax on each sales link, according to the policy of Taizu, the Shi clan does not collect taxes, the Shi clan owns land, mountains and forests, but all are not taxed, to put it simply, the grain and cotton produced on the land of the Shi clan, the court can not collect taxes, these grain cotton are sold, the court still cannot collect taxes, only in the end, to the retailer, the court can receive taxes.

"What do you mean, you collect taxes in all links?" asked the sentence.

Gu Wei smiled slightly: "Well, I think so, Taizu's policy is that the gate lords of the clan do not collect taxes, but I think that what Taizu means is that the gate lord clan does not collect poll tax, so even if the land of the gate lord clan is not taxed, but those things should be sold, and taxes should be collected in this link."

Silkworm cocoons, cotton, grain, put them in your warehouse, there is no problem, the court does not collect taxes, but if you want to sell them, then you should collect taxes. ”

The only expectation in Ju Yi's heart suddenly went out, his face changed suddenly, and he shook his head only after half a sound: "Brother, brother, you are really bold, this is not to poke a hole in the sky of Yangzhou, but to poke a hole in the sky of Dajin." ”

Gu Wei was extremely calm, and sighed softly: "My lord, when I was in the support of Cao, I checked the financial taxes of the imperial court over the years, and the financial wealth of the imperial court has been declining every year, and last year's taxes have not caught up with the ten years of Taizu, but when Taizu was ten years old, the world was not completely stable, Shuzhou and Lingnan were still at war, and the Saiwai Hu people were still in Koubian, Qingzhou drought, and Runan floods, but last year, it can be said that the country is peaceful and peaceful, in addition to the drought in Yongbei, the Dongyang River in the south of the Yangtze River bursts, and the impact is less than two counties, but the imperial court's wealth is less than ten years of Taizu, why is this?" ”

Some people in Shilin think that the imperial court has a huge expenditure and should be used sparingly; another part thinks that it is the corruption of officials; only a very small part thinks that the main reason for the loss of taxes in the imperial court is the ancestral system of tax exemption of the scholars, like the former Zhaoyang County King, and the current Pengzhu is the representative of this part.

However, this faction was collectively suppressed by the gate lord clan, and the king of Zhaoyang County was killed under the joint attack of several gate lord clan groups.

At that time, he had just stepped into his official career, and he was still a six-grade petty official in the imperial capital, and he witnessed the arrest of the king of Zhaoyang County, and the officials of the first line of the king of Zhaoyang County were escorted to the execution ground, and the bloody scenes were always imprinted in his mind.

"Alas, Brother Zhongren," Ju Yi sighed and shook his head: "Some things are urgent, these years, the taxes of the imperial court have been less, but the imperial court is not fine, the world is still peaceful, it is better not to go up this fold." ”

When Gu Wei heard this, he despised Ju Yu even more in his heart, and he sighed: "It's not that the world is okay now, but there are big things, there are many people in the world, you see, Yangzhou is known as the richest man in the world, but you see, just outside the city, there are tens of thousands of homeless people, this is still the result of Sheng Huai's order not to allow homeless people to enter Yangzhou, outside the imperial capital, there are more than 100,000 homeless people, Jugong, if you don't rectify it, I'm afraid it's too late." ”

Ju Yu still shook his head resolutely, but on the contrary, he persuaded him not to go up, Gu Wei regretted it.

The reason why these two sparse lines are given to the sentence is to pull the sentence up, the two of them are sparse together, and the probability of success is much higher, and now Gu Wei can only go up the sparse by himself.

Looking at Gu Wei's back, his gaze was like looking at a dead man, during this time of working with Gu Wei, he felt that this young man was talented, not pedantic, and knew how to change, not at all like the legends in the outside world, but unfortunately, it seems that he is still a little pedantic today.

Can this hornet's nest be poked?!!! it has been eight hundred years since the Great Jin Dynasty, and those who dared to poke this hornet's nest were all stung to death by the hornet.

Gorgeous dividing line**************

South of the Yangtze River, on the bank of Changtang, a series of rolling hills, between the hills, there are three manors of not very large scale hidden among the green shade, from the outside, you will see green fields and rice flowers.

But if you look at it from the sky, the three manors are in the shape of a finished glyph, and militarily speaking, the three manors can completely cover each other and support each other.

In a small courtyard in the middle of the manor, this small courtyard is very quiet, with a faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers, and in the flower garden, white yellow and red autumn chrysanthemums bloom petals.

In the room, Qu Zhang knelt on the futon, looking very haggard, and the old manager knelt on the top.

"Do you want to understand Childe's punishment for you this time?"

"The subordinates understand. Qu Zhang replied calmly: "The subordinates are too reckless this time, if the boss hadn't arrived in time, the subordinates would have died." ”

The old manager sighed: "That Liu Han is not the wolf tooth of twelve years ago. ”

Qu Zhang was obviously a little surprised, and looked at the old manager in confusion, and the old manager nodded calmly: "My son and I personally checked his details." ”

"Why don't you kill him. Varicose blurted out with some surprise.

"If you don't kill him, you can't kill him. The old boss sighed: "Gongzi and he have made a settlement agreement, and he is not allowed to attack him in the future, this person cannot be killed without all preparations." ”

"Why is this?" Qu Zhang was very confused, his expression was very puzzled, he was five years old with the boss to learn martial arts, twelve years old to the son of the son, is one of the five soldiers and eight leaders personally trained by the child, the son is a god-like existence in their eyes, but he didn't think about it, he actually hit a wall in Liu Han.

"Don't ask why, remember, when you meet him in the imperial capital in the future, you have to retreat. The old manager got up and said, Qu Zhang was still kneeling, and the old manager walked slowly to the door with his hands behind his back: "Get up." ”

Qu Zhang hurriedly got up and followed behind the old manager, and as the old manager walked around the yard, the two of them stood down by the flower garden.

"I'm going to go out for a while, after you arrive in the imperial capital, send someone to contact the Hanhai Trading Company and transfer the courtyard in Sijing Lane to them, and leave the rest alone. ”

Qu Zhang nodded in agreement, and the old manager added: "Remember, you sent someone, understand no." ”

"Understood. Qu Zhang responded, the boss knew this sentence very clearly, and he couldn't use other people, and then he asked in wonder: "Then, Liu Han is like this?"

Liu Han now has a lot of secrets about them, although it is not a core secret, but the Hundred Workshops are an important part of Childe's layout, which was created by Childe himself more than ten years ago, and Childe was also the first shopkeeper, and since then, the eldest brother has also been a shopkeeper, and then it was passed to him.

"Let's do this first," the old manager's tone was a little lost, but Qu Zhang was slightly surprised, with the old manager's cultivation, there was no way to take this Liu Han! That night, as soon as Liu Han saw the old manager, he fled, and the old manager chased after him, and he followed behind, and lost it after a while.

Qu Zhang didn't ask anything more, the son and the boss are like this, let you know, they will naturally tell you, if you don't let you know, no matter how you ask, they won't tell you.

"I'm going to go a little longer this time, after this is over, you go to Jizhou once, and, no matter where you are, when you meet Liu Han, don't tear your face, understand no." ”

"Understood!" Qu Zhang was even more surprised, in his impression, the old manager had never emphasized it repeatedly, it seemed that this Liu Han's background was not simple.

The old manager came from Yangzhou to explain to him, indicating that the son attaches great importance to this matter.

"I'm going to Jizhou, is it urgent to enter the alley?"

"That's not in a hurry, I estimate that Liu Han will stay in Yangzhou for a while, Jizhou's affairs, you have to do it in a month, and then go to the imperial capital, well, this time God will not make a big fuss, go quietly, go quietly." ”

"Understood. Qu Zhang responded, took a piece of paper handed over by the boss, and unfolded it to read carefully, this is the mission of Shangjizhou this time, he quickly finished reading it, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

"The Wang family?"

"Yes, the Wang family, Gongzi thinks that the old ancestor of the Wang family has been abnormal for more than a year. The old manager frowned and looked worried.

Qu Zhang nodded, and the old manager said: "Also, pay attention to the displaced people in Jizhou, alas, over the years, we have focused on Jiangnan and Bingzhou, and not enough attention has been paid to Jizhou and Qingzhou, Qingzhou is okay, King Qi still has a layout, alas, Gongzi's major events, according to Gongzi's estimate, it will take at least ten years to be fully prepared, but.... Alas. ”

Qu Zhang didn't ask, the boss sighed in a rare continuous sigh today, he knew that the things that the son was planning were very big, but what was the son planning in the end, except for the boss, only the eldest brother knew a little, but these two people were very tight-mouthed, although the eldest brother did not cultivate, he could take the son as an example since he was a child, and follow the son in every word and deed, and he was the most trusted person in addition to the boss.

Before dinner, someone came to visit, handed over the name card is written on it Liu Han, Qu Zhang took a mask to meet the visitor, the two chatted for a while, Qu Zhang sent someone to accompany him in the courtyard for a while, the person left without saying anything, and by the way took away a thing that the old manager handed over through him.

"Childe told Liu Han about this, it is... , this Liu Han, I'm afraid it will be troublesome in the future. The boss sighed, this was the biggest failure in more than a decade.

Qu Zhang was even more shocked in his heart, Gongzi actually had to hand over a handle to Liu Han, what is the background of this Liu Han, he believes that with the cultivation of Gongzi and the old manager, it is enough to be proud of the world, Liu Han's own cultivation and the power of the Hanhai Trading Company are impossible to fight at all, if the son wants to destroy the Hanhai Trading Company, it will be easy, and the son and the old manager are so jealous of him, it can only be the power behind him.
