People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 19 Let Jin Yiwei be transformed into the IRS. Let’s see who dares to evade taxes!
This is really a problem.

Suddenly, everyone seemed to have found a reason to ridicule Chen Han.

What's the use of talking so nicely here?

As long as the people below do not obey the policies above, it is in vain.

And Chen Han seemed to see the ridicule in these people's eyes.

And it seems that the policy has been prepared for a long time.

He laughed heartily: "You think you can think of problems that I would never think of?"

These words are very hurtful!

That means, do you think I don’t know about these people’s little schemes?
Although Zhang Juzheng has never underestimated Chen Han, he also feels that this is a very troublesome thing.

The cabinet has introduced many good policies before, but problems arose when it came to implementation.

This is true as the saying goes, there are policies above and countermeasures below.

Due to limited transportation, the imperial court could not manage the people below at all.

Many local emperors don't care what your superiors think, as long as I pay you all the taxes on time,

You have to give me an excellent rating in the official performance appraisal.

This is where the real trouble lies.

From this perspective, Chen Han is indeed a bit too optimistic.

But Chen Han said like an old god: "In order to deal with this situation, the second article of the tax reform came into being."

Good guy, now the ministers are really impressed.

How much stuff does this guy have in his head? How come he can handle any problem?

Chen Han didn't waste any time and said directly: "I want to establish a Daming Bank account, which is not just for exchanging silver, it also has many functions.

Because when I establish branches of bank accounts all over the world, I will also establish a new Yamen Tax Inspection Department accordingly. "

This is a new vocabulary.

The so-called Tax Audit Department Chen Han did not tell them that this was actually the IRS modeled after the beautiful country.

This department can be said to be the most powerful department in the beautiful country.

It is said that even gangsters like the Mafia fear them.

Under the intimidation of this department, no beautiful Chinese dares not to pay taxes.

Their greatest strength lies in their independent law enforcement power.

There is also strong firepower support.

And after he saw the law enforcement department of the beautiful country, he suddenly felt that it could also be used in the Ming Dynasty.

After all, Jinyiwei is also a pervasive intelligence organization, and they themselves have strong penetration capabilities.

If they can be used to supervise taxation, there should be no problem at all.

Zhang Juzheng and the others felt dizzy after hearing this.

"Then what exactly are you going to do, Tishuai?" Zhang Juzheng asked.

"It's very simple. In order to cope with the people exchanging silver, we need to set up semicolons all over the world. The Jinyiwei will build the semicolons, and the management of the semicolons also belongs to the Jinyiwei.

From now on, people will pay taxes in silver for the first one or two years, and then use silver notes to collect taxes.

In this case, there will be no argument that ordinary people do not use banknotes.

Let me first use the law to stipulate that silver cannot be used as transaction currency.

Then he made a strong request on the tax, that it must be paid with a bank check.
In this way, no matter how much silver flows in from the outside, we still have the ability to control it. Those who should be caught in private silver transactions should be arrested, and those who should be killed should be killed. From now on, only silver bills can be used to pay taxes. With a two-pronged approach, it should be possible to turn things around in a few years.

After the imperial court obtained a huge amount of silver, it could be stored in the silver bank.

In this way, a large amount of silver flowed into the hands of the imperial court. Even if the silver from outside does not come in in the future, with the accumulated silver, our Ming Dynasty can safely weather all difficulties.
This is the way to solve the problem of no inflow of silver from the outside and that our coinage power will always be in the hands of outsiders. "

After Chen Han finished speaking, Zhang Juzheng was the first to stand up and applaud: "Second, wonderful! It's so wonderful! Tishuai, you are really a talented person with both literary and military skills."

Although the other ministers felt a little uncomfortable at this time.

Although I understand that such reforms will definitely affect my own interests, after listening to Chen Han's words, I also feel that this method is really good.

As Chen Han said, if you don’t have your own currency dominance, you will have to listen to others in the future.

The silver that people dig out from outside can be exchanged for things when it is brought to Ming Dynasty.
But one day, if people are unwilling to bring so much silver, won’t Ming Dynasty have no money to use?
Wouldn't it be embarrassing for a huge country to be so controlled by others?

From this moment on, they no longer dare to look down on Chen Han.

Although this young man likes to play evil tricks and does not follow the rules, he only relies on his own preferences.
But he is really capable of coming up with solutions that can really solve major court affairs, and that's enough.

Then Chen Han said: "This is the second point of the reform I mentioned, and the third point I think is the most important.

The third point is to reform business.

Today's Ming Dynasty is not the same as when Emperor Taizu was around. There was a lack of commerce and a low status of merchants.
Now, on the contrary, our businessmen in the Ming Dynasty are all very capable and extremely rich.

This group of people not only enjoy extremely low tax rates, but are also the main force in annexing land.

They not only annexed land but also cultivated their own spokespersons in the court. If the court had any policy that was unfavorable to them, their supporters, regardless of right or wrong, would

As long as it is not in line with the interests of the businessmen behind it, they will unanimously oppose it.

I think the imperial court should have wanted to raise business taxes more than once before.

But it always fails, and the minister who even proposed this will soon be impeached for no reason, or even slandered, and then disappear from the court.

Even after he returns, he might get sick for no apparent reason and die.

I think this phenomenon is getting more and more serious in the court now. "

When he said this, he looked around at the ministers.

Several ministers lowered their heads.

They were all thinking in their hearts, how could this Chen Han know everything.

It seems like I can see the little hidden thoughts in everyone.

You can even say it in one sentence.

The business tax seems to be a brazier that cannot be touched.

If anyone is contaminated, there will be no good end.

None of the ministers who have reached this level of officialdom are innocent. Even Zhang Juzheng has received favors from many businessmen.

Therefore, even a capable person like Zhang Juzheng knows very well that the interests of businessmen all over the world are actually mixed with the interests of many powerful people.

To touch this piece of fat is to touch their interests.

To give a very simple example, why could Princess Ning'an mobilize so many censors to impeach Chen Han overnight? Could it be that she was relying on face?

That was in the hands of Princess Ning'an, who controlled many businesses.
These businesses can bring her a lot of income every year.
Moreover, these business names are also linked to the Queen Mother’s natal family.

Empress Dowager Li's father, Wu Qingbo Li Wei, was engaged in the business of transporting baggage for the army.

Even the emperor's relatives are doing business, let alone other people...
