Chapter 309 Taxation
"Your Majesty, this question, when I have time in the future, I will naturally clear up all your doubts."

"When your majesty went to deal with government affairs, the minister had already figured out part of the situation of my Great Qin."

"Now is not the time to talk about this, please Your Majesty Haihan."

Xin Zhao also became serious when he heard this. Since Zhuge Liang had a better understanding of the situation of his empire, he must have a good opinion. In fact, Zhuge Liang's strongest thing should be internal affairs.

"Okay, I understand, please advise the prime minister."

Zhuge Liang became quieter now, and he also thought that he had a lot of knowledge. It was the first time he had seen an emperor who asked himself such a question, but now it is much more normal.

"First and foremost, taxes."

"Your Majesty, speaking of it, the most important thing in a country is money."

"It might sound weird, but nations are the same as individuals."

"In all industries, the common people are actually trying to make money, including His Majesty's ministers and generals. If the army is not paid and paid, the court will not be able to operate."

"However, His Majesty has not completely rectified the taxation. In this matter, I suggest that I assist Lord Yu Qian."

Zhuge Liang and Yu Qian doing things together?Xin Zhao felt that he was going to be overjoyed. These two saint-level figures were actually working under him at the same time.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Zhuge Liang saw that Xin Zhao's face turned red.

"Oh, it's okay, I have a little fever today."

"Let's not talk about this, this minor illness is nothing, let's talk about taxes first."

Even someone like Zhuge Liang really didn't understand what happened to Xin Zhao at this moment, because Zhuge Liang didn't know that Yu Qian was also a top minister.

Yu Qian's achievements do not even belong to Zhuge Liang. Without Yu Qian, the Ming Dynasty would have ended early, and the capital would still be captured by foreigners. The difference from the Han regime is very big.

The common people will be tortured to varying degrees, and it is very important to rely on the big tree of Yu Qian to repel the foreign invasion.

This feeling, Zhuge Liang and Yu Qian are both working under their own hands, this Daqin is really hopeful, not only the emperor himself, but the people of the whole Daqin will be blessed.

After Zhuge Liang heard what Zhao Xin said, he didn't bother with this issue, and said: "Well, if it doesn't get in the way, I will continue to analyze the current situation for Your Majesty."

I rely on!Listen to this, analyze!What is a top counselor and civil servant? Analyzing these two words, Xin Zhao trembled when he heard it.

Zhuge Liang: "."

"Your Majesty, if you are really seriously ill, let's put this matter aside for now."

Xin Zhao waved his hand, "Don't ask about my illness, I've already taken the medicine, it's a very minor illness, Ai Qing continued."

"Okay, then the subject will continue to analyze."

"Taxation is the most critical point. The imperial court will not have an economic deficit now, but if the taxation is not rectified, if there is a deficit, Your Majesty, you will find that the royal family in the capital will not be able to operate and function."

"Your Majesty must not underestimate the taxation of various places."

"Although even a very rich city is definitely not as much as half of the economic income of the capital, but with such a vast territory in Daqin, a city is nothing, and the combined tax revenue of hundreds of cities is actually an astronomical figure."

"The most urgent task is not to rectify the taxation of the capital, but to rectify the local administrative divisions at all levels."

Xin Zhao nodded, "I understand what you mean."

"The taxation of the capital is an urgent need, but if it goes on for a long time, it will fall into even greater difficulties."

"It's better to rectify the taxation of various places first. Although it will be difficult for a while, it will eventually continue."

Zhuge Liang replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, that's exactly what I mean."

"Although the tax revenue in the capital is extremely high, it will never be more than the sum of the administrative divisions of all regions."

"In areas other than [-] people, governments at all levels have corruption and tax deductions to varying degrees."

"This is a sign that an empire is beginning to decay. There must be no problems with local governments and taxes."

"Your Majesty has revived the court, and is already the Lord of the Holy Spirit, but the local taxation can be messed up like this. This is the first time I have seen it. It is a bit exaggerated."

"It seems that His Majesty's power is only limited to the vicinity of the capital."

Of course, Xin Zhao understands this situation, but the Qin country he traveled to, to put it bluntly, was prepared to give experience to the protagonist Chu Zhan.

This state of Qin exists only to support Chu Zhan. In my own situation, if I open the perspective of God, I feel that I will just find a rope to kill myself and it will be over. Let's start the next game.

But now it’s finally rectified, but just like what Zhuge Liang said, the imperial court has finally returned to the right path. Over the years, local governments at all levels are really as decadent and happy as taking medicine.

The chief official of the frontier is the Tu Emperor. Now that the problems of the central government have been solved, it is indeed time to solve the problems of the localities.

Those who should be guilty, beheaded, and those who are locked up in a cell, don't let these local officials think that they can't even say a word after swallowing Daqin's imperial food into their stomachs.

Zhao Xin said to Zhuge Liang: "Prime Minister, I understand what you mean, I understand this truth, but I am ashamed to say that it is really difficult to rectify it."

"When we finish rectifying each area by area, when will we have to wait?"

"It's not as troublesome as His Majesty thought." Zhuge Liang said.

"It is not necessary to rectify every region, but only the county guards in various places."

"Please tell me the details, Prime Minister," Xin Zhao said.

"Your Majesty only needs to strictly rectify all the county towns, and then ask the county guards to exert pressure downwards. From top to bottom, your majesty can finish this matter as long as you manage the county guards well."

"Of course, I have a more direct solution, just leave it to the minister to handle it."

"Your Majesty only needs to let me keep the emperor's gold medal given to me, and I can help you recover the tax revenue that the entire capital can't spend in a year."

Xin Zhao was waiting for this sentence, if he wanted to learn how to govern the country with Zhuge Liang, he had to have that opportunity.

Now the whole Daqin is still on the verge of collapse, just let Zhuge Liang do it, and when he slowly finishes learning, the high-ranking officials in those places have already run out of greed.

"Prime Minister, please come and listen to the morning court tomorrow. The token of the Son of Heaven will naturally be placed with you first."

"Seeing this gold medal is like seeing me, you can keep it for now."

"But it's not enough to just have the token of the Son of Heaven. I must give you a position."

"It's good that you come to listen to the Morning Morning tomorrow."
