Chapter 962 Poor Tax
"Hey, because of the disaster last year, the land tax was not collected, and the commercial tax was also exempted because of their donation.

Therefore, only the taxes on the dock side are left, and there is 320 to 380 Wen in addition to the handed in. " County magistrate Zhou took a pamphlet and looked at it, then replied awkwardly under her burning gaze.

"A lot." Bai Jingwen nodded in satisfaction and replied.

Of course, she refers to the income of the terminal. After the disaster last year, I heard that the terminal was out of operation for more than three months. Under such circumstances, there can still be more than 3 taels of tax. Good income.

Then he asked: "All those merchants donated. Is there a record of how much they donated?"

"Yes, please take a look." The household official hurriedly got up and handed him a booklet, and replied with a smile.

Bai Jingwen looked through it, then sneered twice and said nothing, this kind of merchant is simply too cunning, the donation is much less than the tax they should pay, but it is still passable.

On the contrary, the things from those rich landlords, the real big households, are a bit too shabby.

Then he returned the booklet to him, and said in a bad tone: "Continue."

"I heard that the county lord is trying to grow a crop?" At this time, the county magistrate raised his head and asked cautiously.

"That's right, I call it a potato, and you're quite well informed." Bai Jingwen nodded in surprise.

"I don't know if the county owner can promote it in the county. I heard that it not only has a high yield, but can also be used as food."

"Of course, but there are too few seeds at present, I'm afraid we have to wait at least another year."

"That's okay, as long as the county master remembers this."

"Is there any more?" Bai Jingwen nodded and asked.

Then everyone asked some more questions, and after discussion, Bai Jingwen agreed one by one.

An hour later, Bai Jingwen stood up and stretched her muscles, and asked again: "Is there any more?"

"No more at the moment." Seeing that they didn't speak anymore, County Magistrate Zhou hurriedly replied.

"I would like to ask a question, how much land is within the scope of taxation each year?" Bai Jingwen felt that the land tax was too different from the actual number of acres of land, which was related to her vital interests, so she had to ask.

"What does the county lord mean?" As soon as she finished speaking, the county magistrate suddenly had a bad feeling and hurriedly asked.

"It's the land in the county every year, what percentage is actually paid by the tax." Bai Jingwen paused and said: "In other words, what percentage of the land is in the name of people with fame or officials."

"This." Several officials suddenly became vigilant. Although they couldn't guess what she wanted to do for a while, it was definitely not a good thing.

"About [-]% of the total in the county." Magistrate Zhou asked seriously.

This is also a headache for him. The county is now a scholar, and it has already filled up the [-] mu of tax-free land. It is really difficult to collect taxes.

"Forty percent?" Bai Jingwen exclaimed.

One must know that in ancient times, land tax was the big head of taxation. Now there are indeed so many loopholes in the land, so she has to pay attention to it.

Then he asked again: "Are there many black households?"

"There are layers of supervision in the farming family, which is better, but the servants of the big families, the black households are very serious, which is why the lives of the servants are so thin." Zhou County Magistrate replied with a frown.

Although the county looks peaceful on the surface, in private, people are afraid that people will die every day, which forces the subordinates to climb up desperately, especially women, which is also one of the reasons for the instability in the backyards of various prefectures.

"This is indeed the case." The county magistrate suddenly thought of something at this moment, and nodded back.
