Runaway Mengfei is not easy to mess with

Chapter 937 Tax Rates

Xu Mengchen was arranged to stay at the inn yesterday because his martial arts were really not good enough, and it was very late when Xilinglan and the others came back after dealing with the fire in the sheriff's mansion. Dark circles are especially noticeable.

Seeing Xiling Lan come out, she stood up and went up to meet her aggrievedly: "Boss, why didn't you call me when you went to burn down that dingbapi's house yesterday? If I went, I would definitely burn their house down to nothing Not even a single tile is left for him.”

Xiling Lan took a sip of tea and raised her eyelids: "Ding Papi? Is he a real businessman?"

Xu Mengchen has a lot of bitterness to pour out: "Not only is it not authentic, it is simply inhumane! Boss, you don't know, he controls all the grain stores in Sui County, and he has the final say on the price of grain. The price of grain is several times higher. Many people can’t afford his family’s grain and seeds, so they only have to pay on credit, and they’re in the trap. A bucket of rice or a bag of seeds can make people bankrupt. His How did the mansion get here? That’s how it was searched.”

Xilinglan frowned, no wonder Ding Mingshan couldn't help jumping out first, probably because he was afraid that once the county guard's mansion was established, just go to the street and ask casually, he would know that his food prices were too high, and he was afraid Xilinglan took him under the knife.

"Look at this first—" Xilinglan interrupted Xu Mengchen, and threw him the plan that she had written all night.

Xu Mengchen took it over and looked down, there were several lines on the paper, the first line was to promulgate new laws, the second line was to equalize grain prices, set tax rates, and collect commercial taxes.

The following are densely packed with some legal convenience settings. His eyes lit up immediately, and he pointed to a few of them and discussed with Xilinglan. Ruan Baochai and Zi Shiyi took advantage of the opportunity to see the plans listed on the paper.

Although Zixi had no talent for these government affairs, as the commander of the secret guard, he often accompanied Chu Tianmu, and he had been influenced by it in the palace.Although some don't understand it, but the basics can still be understood. Naturally, although this new law is a bit simple and rough, it should be very suitable for this sturdy place in Sui County.

Needless to say Ruan Baochai, her attention is not on the law, she is not familiar with that major, she is interested in the issue of leveling grain prices, setting tax rates and collecting taxes.

You must know that the tax rates of the six countries basically follow the previous dynasties. Agricultural taxes and the so-called poll tax are the most important. problem.

On the contrary, the so-called commercial tax listed in this plan, especially luxury goods, such as jewelry and silver houses, and pawnshops, is not high according to the previous tax rate, so those businessmen, although their status is not high, They are looked down upon by others, but they make a lot of money one by one.

Now Xilinglan has doubled the tax rate in this area, and lowered the agricultural and head taxes, which are changing. According to this new tax rate, the life of the disadvantaged farmers will be easier, and those who make money Merchants are about to bleed a little.

There is also a later formulation, if you pay commercial taxes, you can live under the protection of the government. If someone dares to go to the business to make trouble, the government will come forward and drive them away or go to jail directly.

Ruan Baochai became more and more excited. When he was in Chizhao, his father once lamented that the farmers were taxed too much every year, and they just lived by themselves. To die for.
