I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 76 The Simplest and Effective Way!Murder now!

In front of Yingtianfu Yamen, a long queue of people formed.

Just an hour ago, the Yingtian government office posted an announcement.

The people of Jinling City soon came to watch, and the literate scholars began to read.

"The imperial court uses troops every year, and the national treasury is empty. Your majesty is kind, and cannot bear to apportion and increase taxes to the people."

"As long as the citizens of the Ming Dynasty have the upper body of the imperial court, they can take the initiative to apply for tax payment."

After reading this, everyone suddenly laughed.

"Although it is a matter of course to pay taxes and pay royal rations, what does it mean to take the initiative to apply for taxes?"

Someone asked in confusion.

Immediately, there was a burst of laughter.

Since ancient times, I have only heard of tax evasion, but I have never taken the initiative to apply for more tax payment, right?

But what happened next left many people stunned.

"Anyone who applies for tax payment to Ying Tianfu can obtain a tax certificate."

"Depending on the application subject, the tax certificate is also different."

"With this tax certificate, you can apply for a tax invoice, and you can do business."

"And the original household registration remains unchanged."

Seeing this, many people rubbed their eyes, thinking they were wrong.

What are the prerequisites for doing business in Daming?
The premise is that you must be a merchant, and only merchants are eligible to do business.

It is illegal for people other than merchants to do business, and the Yamen wants to arrest people.

But the imperial court also stipulated that "scholars, farmers, businessmen" and merchants are the most humble.

Once you become a merchant, future generations will not even be eligible for the imperial examination.

Therefore, even though they knew that the business was profitable, no one was willing to become a merchant.

Only when there is no other way out, will you do that.

It is also because of this that many merchants in Daming are servants of wealthy families.

They are already lowly in status, so it doesn't matter if they come to do business again.

This actually leaves another loophole, allowing big players to profit from it.

In fact, strictly speaking according to the law of Ming Dynasty, this is not allowed.

But even in the current period when Lao Zhu was in power, when the Ming Law was enforced most strictly, it was still extremely common for noble families or officials of the imperial court to conduct business in this way.

As soon as the announcement from the Yingtian government office came out, that is to say, in the future, no matter what your status is, as long as you apply for a tax certificate, you can do business.

Moreover, the original household registration attributes remain unchanged.

Not considered a merchant.

Future generations can still take the imperial examination and be officials.

This time, the people of Yingtian Mansion went crazy.

Who doesn’t know that doing business is a huge profit?
Who doesn't know that those businessmen are very rich?
However, thinking about the low status of merchants, thinking about the various restrictions imposed by the imperial court on merchants, and thinking about the future of future generations, most people tolerated it.

Even if you are poorer and harder, you can't degenerate into a merchant!
But now, there is no limit.

What are you waiting for?
Merchants are on strike, but they will not.

They are rushing to apply for tax certificates.

After hearing the news, how can the merchants who were originally on strike still sit still?
Not to mention, two more were awarded accordingly.

"From now on, anyone doing business must use a tax certificate as proof. Those without a tax certificate are not allowed to do business."

"Any previous merchants who do not go back to the market to apply for tax certificates today will not be allowed to do so again in the future."

Merchants already know that even if they do not resume the market, because after the tax certificate is obtained, there will be no restrictions on merchants, and the new influx will immediately fill their gaps.

And they will be eliminated permanently.

Needless to say, the consequences of losing the business license.

In front of Yingtianfu Yamen, Jiang Wei looked at the long line of people who came to collect tax certificates, and his admiration for His Royal Highness Nanwang grew a little more in his heart.

Zhu Yunzhen also smiled slightly, everything was as he expected.

This trick is actually not very clever, but it is very practical.

If it was at any other time, he would let go of his business qualifications in this way, and there would definitely be opposition from the government and the opposition.

Even Lao Zhu may not agree.

But right now, the merchants in Jinling City are collectively on strike, and the imperial court cannot yield to the merchants, which is a matter of course.

At this juncture, in the name of applying for tax certificates and collecting more taxes for the court, no one can say anything against the release of business qualifications.

Otherwise, would the imperial court still be coerced by those merchants and bow their heads to them?

Which official dares to say that?

Although there are many people who hope to do this in their hearts, no one dares to say it clearly.

Therefore, they could only accept what Zhu Yunxi did.

For Zhu Yunxi, he was worried about not being able to find opportunities, so he let go of business and encouraged the development of commerce.

These merchants went on strike because they were sleepy and gave away pillows.

He was exactly what he wanted.

Pushing the boat along the way not only solved the crisis of strikes, but also made the qualifications of merchants no longer subject to household registration restrictions.

The prosperity of Ming Dynasty's business has been guaranteed since then.

Do it all.

No wonder he was happy.

The merchants who came to apply for tax certificates were all downcast.

After a lot of fuss, not only did I not get half of the benefits, but I still had to apply for a tax certificate, and the business qualification was also opened to other people. I am afraid that the future profits will drop...

This is called stealing chickens without losing rice. How can merchants not be angry?

But they had to bow their heads.

Otherwise, it will really be replaced by others.

……

……

Huang Zicheng's house.

Zhu Yunqi was supposed to study behind closed doors, but he couldn't sit still. Hearing the news in the mansion, he immediately came to Huang's mansion again.

"The fourth brother has put down the strike of the merchants, what should we do?"

Both Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai's expressions were very ugly.

He thought it would make Zhu Yunxi unable to end, but in the end, he gave someone else a pillow.

Hateful!
"The matter of establishing a reserve will not be delayed for too long, otherwise, it will really become a situation of fratricide."

"Your Majesty will not allow it, and the courtiers will also speak up."

Qi Tai said: "The current plan is to let Nanwang make mistakes, we can't sit still and wait for death."

Zhu Yunwen bent down and bowed: "Please also ask the two teachers to teach me."

The field suddenly fell silent.

Both Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai were lost in thought.

The current situation was very clear, but for a while, they really couldn't think of a way.

Huang Zicheng's face changed again and again.

He spoke suddenly.

"I do have an idea, and it will definitely work."

Qi Tai hurriedly said: "Talk about it."

Huang Zicheng stood up, took a few steps, turned around, and said, "Your Majesty can't afford it, and neither can the court. The matter of establishing a crown prince will be decided within this year."

"Nanwang is so smart, I don't know if there are some experts behind him to guide him."

Zhu Yunqi interjected: "This is definitely not true. If not, I should have known by now."

He lives in the same mansion as Zhu Yunxi, so he naturally knows the details.

"If that's the case, then he's even more terrifying."

Huang Zicheng said: "You know, but His Majesty may not believe it."

"In my opinion, since King Nan is so smart and capable and has a talent that has never been born in the world, it is better to simply ask His Majesty to make King Nan the emperor's grandson."

"Ah!" Zhu Yunqi and Qi Tai were surprised at the same time.

A murderous intent appeared on Huang Zicheng's face, and his voice became deeper and deeper.

"Let all the civil and military officials, the nobles of the Manchu Dynasty, the generals and soldiers of the three armies, and the people of the world all speak together, and ask Your Majesty to make Nanwang the crown prince. The bigger the momentum, the better..."
