Villager of Daming

Chapter 189 Using Taxes as Taxes for Two Periods (Fourth Change)
Zhu Xing stared at Li Chang, with 'I don't believe it' written all over his face.

He admitted that the high-level people in Xiaqiu Village have strategies for governing the country, and they have already written several good methods to the emperor, all of which are implemented at the level of the Ming Dynasty.

What is the use of a store I cooperate with?Even libraries can only solve the problems of some readers.

Once the promotion of Ningguo Mansion is successful, the people of the whole mansion will benefit next year, and other similar places will follow suit and the imperial court will promote it.

How can the people solve the situation if they get more income from crops and don't receive extra land taxes?Do the people donate by themselves?
"There is still an hour before lunch, let's drink tea first."

The head of the village is not in a hurry, everyone is standing at the door of the library, and the sun is shining.

The atmosphere in Nanjing is still high in October. It can reach nearly [-] degrees during the day and cool at [-] to [-] degrees at night.

The tea was served, and the arrested people were taken to Luoyunzhai. I believe they will explain clearly soon.

If you say it, go to mine, if you don't say it, you will assassinate the king, and you will die everywhere.

"Knock, here, umm!" Zhu Wentian grabbed the watermelon seeds and gave half of them to Zhu Xi.

"Thank you!" Zhu Xi held it without knocking, looking at the chief.

"The last time I talked about the issue of currency circulation with Zhifu Song and others, I think the palace already knew about it.

Money is not easy to circulate, for many reasons.Those who hoard without spending, those who have no money to use.

In addition, if the goods are not in sight, there is no idea of ​​buying. The villagers will not think about selling food at any time, and they are not willing to travel far to buy something.

They will choose a day, and everyone will go to the county town to sell grain, rapeseed oil, cotton cloth and silk.

To buy or directly exchange their daily necessities, many people have never left the village, let alone the county seat. "

The head of the village introduced the situation of the local people. The former Xiaqiu Village was no different from other people.

"Ah? Ah! Oh! That's how it is." Zhu Xi really didn't know the daily life of the people outside.

"Let's open the store directly to the village, and open a store in a village, which is called a grocery store, and it can also be called a department store.

People no longer need to go to distant counties to buy things. They buy ordinary household items in department stores. When they see them, they naturally think about what to buy.

There is a tax for merchants, one for thirty, and the common people are allowed to sell food and buy goods without paying tax, and the tax on the goods bought by the common people will be added to them.

We don’t open department stores in villages that can grow two crops but only one. We look for villages with more income.

If they have extra things, they will naturally sell them and buy them with money. Remember not to exchange them directly.

Let the people get used to selling things for money and then buying them with money.

Nowadays, in the common people's own land, the land tax is three liters, three infusions and five teaspoons per mu. For normal farming, the land tax paid is less than one-thirtieth of the yield per mu.

As long as the people buy more things, taxes will be used to collect their land tax, and the people will also have income. "

The head of the village explained to Zhu Xi that we don't collect extra land taxes, but use commercial means to earn money. The people will not suffer, and the court will have income.

Zhu Xi's eyes widened as he heard this, can it still be like this?Seeing that someone has money, run over to open a shop immediately?
"Eat, um! Hey hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian reminded Zhu Xi not to be in a daze, but to knock quickly.

"Oh!" Zhu Xing threw a watermelon seed into his mouth: "Manpower, money to build a house, money to buy goods, where do these come from?"

He thought of a new problem, proving that he had agreed to open the store, and it was time to settle specific matters.

"The dividends from selling beer to the palace will be stopped first, and the money will be used to open a store, and the profit will be [-]% for the palace, which is called reinvestment.

Then take the money to buy ships to transport goods, recruit people to sit in the villages, and the accounts must be clear.

Waiting to continue to make money, not busy with dividends, let's expand our business and open stores in more places.

Some state capitals have no money to lend to the people to rent livestock. We help out and get one cent a month in interest from the people. "

Li Chang came up with an idea, as Hanhan said, the palace takes [-]% of the net profit too much, what's the use of the palace?

Zhu Xi spat out the melon seeds in his mouth, and held out the tea bowl: "According to what you said, why do I feel that the palace will never get the [-]% profit? I won't get the [-]% profit either."

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, we have other business, we can make money, so we won't use dividends like this."

The head of the village was relieved in time, don't scare King Qin into withdrawing his shares, Xiaqiu Village needs a backer, and can't rely on the prince.

Zhu Xi thought for a while, then took a sip of tea: "Okay! After all, you can't get any money. You have to make good money. When I was a feudal clan, I was still waiting to do things for the people under my rule!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, if His Highness hadn't thought about a variety of things about the common people's land tax, Caomin wouldn't have said it, why don't we stop opening department stores?"

It doesn't matter if you are a village chief, you can choose for yourself!The idea is that my family Hanhan thought it out in advance, whether it is needed or not is up to you.

"Yes, it's something that benefits the country and the people. If you don't give me money when I become a fan, I will take Hanhan away. I feel that Hanhan can bring good luck."

Zhu Xi began to threaten, not daring to look at Hanhan, feeling embarrassed.

"Go, go, um!" Zhu Wentian looked up.

"King Qin, Your Highness King Qin, there's no need to do this, it's not like that, it's guaranteed to be rich."

How could the head of the village agree to Hanhan's going to fief the land with Zhu Xi?What if Hanhan Village is gone?
"Okay! What's for lunch?" Zhu Xi felt hungry and was as tired as thinking.

"Steamed duck rice, you can eat whatever you want, unlimited, shredded radish soup and other pickled vegetables, how about it?" The head of the village is now afraid that Zhu Xi will say that he will take Hanhan away.

"Scramble an egg for me with scallions, and put more sauce." Zhu Xi made an additional request.

So at noon, everyone has a scrambled egg with green onions, the kind with more sauce.

The workers know that there are ducks left, and scrambled eggs with green onions must be eaten up, otherwise they will be spoiled.

Three hundred craftsmen arranged by the imperial court were eating and worrying, and the work was about to be completed. The large amount of work behind was piled up by people.

After finishing the work and leaving, where can I eat such a good meal?Provide three meals a day, save food at home, the key is that the more you eat, the more strength you will have, and you will gain weight.

"His Royal Highness Qin Wang, we need a place outside the city for our business. Why don't we wait for the library to be repaired and invite them over to buy the land..."

The chief of the village is used to using skilled hands. According to what Hanhan said, the two large warehouses need to be converted into brick-and-concrete ones, and another piece of land is needed. There is no need to occupy the grain field, and there is no problem with hills.

"What money do we use to occupy the wasteland? If you weren't at the front, I wouldn't even handle paperwork for wine, tea, and salt."

Zhu Xi solved the problem of land occupation with a single sentence, and did not pay. The three hundred craftsmen were still in charge of the court, and the craftsmen of Xiaqiu Village paid wages.

Some of the three hundred craftsmen heard this and immediately told the good news to other workers, and everyone's appetites were whetted.

……

That night, Zhu Wentian wrote about the employment issue, and also about the construction of the artificial canal, and the Yanzhi River was quickly opened to facilitate the village to Nanjing.

In the morning of the next day, the head of the village sealed the copy of the letter and handed it to Zhu Taiyi. Zhu Taiyi immediately went to find the prince.
