Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 1768: Lantian County is working hard!

"Well, there is a mountain here, but it's not high or steep. You can go up on horseback!"

"How high is it not high? Ten feet or one hundred feet?"

"Where do I remember this?"

"Didn't you say that you are good at keeping track? You can remember wherever you have been once?"

"Um... I remembered this at the time, but now I forgot..."

"You...! Think about your special mother, and practice if you can't remember! I will ask Zhiping to double your drill mission today!"

"Uh, don't don't! Xiaoxuan, wait, I seem to remember! That mountain is almost fifty meters long, a radius of half a mile, and there are many pine trees on the mountain!"

"Well! What about here? The map shows that there is also a peak here. Do you remember how high it is?"

In the afternoon, within the camp of Xuanjia Army Li Zexuan, he and Cheng Chumo were stepping up to make the military sand table of Niu Shoushan based on the map. Cheng Chumo suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a wrong decision, that is to assist Li Zexuan in the camp. It doesn't seem to be easier than practicing on the school field!

Because Li Zexuan asked too carefully!

From the details to how high a mountain is, how wide it occupies, how dense the woods on the mountain are, and how many mountain roads there are around the mountain, he used to go hunting in Niushou Mountain with a bunch of second-generation dudes from Chang'an City, but he is Those who go hunting and play are not specifically surveying the terrain. Where does he remember these minutiae?

But it is too late to regret at this time. If he wants to "get off the thief ship" at this time, today's drill task will be calculated twice. Isn't this killing him?

Therefore, this whole afternoon, Cheng Chumo's head was about to explode! Wei is really too brain-burning! This guy feels that since he was born, he has not used as many brains as he does today!

"The map of Niushou Mountain given by Duan Zhixuan was originally scribbled, and many details were not clearly drawn. Now the Xuanjia army gate is closed, and only entry and no exit are allowed. It is basically impossible to go to Niushou Mountain in person to survey the terrain. , And Qiu Xinggong will definitely obstruct it, so I can only force the process to be silent! Although some details can’t be remembered clearly, this product has been to Niu Shou Mountain many times after all, and he was there to correct it. The error of this sand table is definitely much smaller than that of the map!"

Seeing Cheng Chumo's sweating being "forced for questioning", although Li Zexuan felt a little unbearable, but in this competition, if the Wu Ziying camp wants to win, it must rely on reasonable tactics, and the premise of reasonable tactics is to figure out in advance. The terrain and terrain of the battlefield! Therefore, he can only sympathize with Cheng Chu in his heart!

"Ugly cow, this Niu Shou Mountain, which peak has many prey? And what prey are usually nearby?"

"Well... if you say that there are the most prey, it must be the main peak. This main peak occupies the largest area. Because the peak is shaped like a bull's head, the people in Hu County call it Niu Shou Mountain, oh, there are also Niutou Mountain, anyway. It all means the same thing. The main peak of Niu Shou Mountain is densely forested, and ordinary people dare not go inside, because in addition to rabbits and pheasants, there are occasional beasts like tigers and wolves!"

"What? There are still tigers and wolves in Niushou Mountain?"

"Of course! I shot and killed a tiger when I was twelve years old when I was hunting, how about it? Great, right?"

"Go! Your kid is so good! You go on to tell me about the other peaks!"

"Oh! In addition to the main peak of Niu Shou Mountain, there is..."

…………………………………………

"To call you here today, there is something to discuss with you!"

In the past three quarters, Lantian County, County Yahoutang.

The county magistrate He, Mengxian Cheng, Hu Dianshi, Wang Xianwei, Zhang Zhutou, Sun Butou and other county officials all gathered together. After seeing the crowds there, He county magistrate put down the tea cup in his hand and spoke.

"My lord county magistrate, please say, I'll wait and listen!"

Meng County Cheng arched his hands respectfully.

After Li Zexuan entered Lantian County and promulgated a series of policies to benefit the people and merchants, the entire Lantian County showed a prosperous attitude. In addition, Li Zexuan personally sent people to clean up the dark places hidden in Lantian County. After the evil forces, Li Zexuan's prestige in Lantian County has grown, and Madam He, as Li Zexuan's "little brother", has naturally risen, and his position in Lantian County has become unprecedentedly stable!

After all, as a prince of the state, Li Zexuan held a lot of official positions, and he certainly couldn't spend all his energy on the management of Lantian County, so the actual manager of Lantian County is still the magistrate!

The county magistrate He coughed slightly and said in a deep voice: "Ahem! You must have read today's "Datang Daily"? Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce will hold a fundraising meeting in Longmen Inn two days later, calling on Datang merchants to serve the country. Raising military resources! This matter was initiated by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, and Lord Hou is the president of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce. How do you think our county government should deal with this matter?"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but raised their brows and fell into contemplation.

Obviously, they have read today's "Datang Daily", but the fundraising meeting was initiated by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce and it was a business matter for businessmen, while the county government was the government, representing the imperial court. This degree is difficult to control!

"The county magistrate meant that this fundraising meeting was promoted by Lord Hou?"

Meng County Cheng arched his hands and asked.

Madam He nodded and said, "Of course!"

Zhang Zhubu couldn't help but wondered: "But Lord Hou is in the army now, and he lacks skills. How can I have time to arrange the fundraising meeting?"

The others couldn't help but nod their heads.

The county magistrate He stroked his beard and said, "Master Hou is not fake in the army, but Master Hou can arrange for other people to do this thing! As far as the official knows, the person conducting the fundraising meeting is named Lin Wenyuan, and this person is not only The first group of members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, and had a good relationship with Lord Hou in private. The reason why Lin Wenyuan was able to call on the other members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce now is precisely because he has the seal of the chairman of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce! You say, this matter is Hou. Can Lord not know?"

"This...It seems that this fundraising meeting must have been promoted by Lord Hou!"

Hearing this, Meng County Cheng couldn't help nodding, and then he went on to say: "Hou Ye launched a fundraising meeting to help the court raise military funds. Maybe this matter was inspired by the Holy Spirit! I just don't know that the Holy Master raised the fundraising meeting. How much money is there any requirement!"

Majesty He nodded and said: "Mengxian Cheng's analysis is good. All dynasties have been light merchants. This time Hou Ye was able to launch a fundraising meeting in the name of the court. First, it shows that the court has indeed met in the matter of preparing for the Turkic war. Difficulty, and secondly, it shows that this matter must have been instructed by the sage, otherwise no one would dare to agree to let Hou Ye call the merchants to raise military funds!

In addition, regardless of whether the sage has requirements for the number of military funds raised, after all, the more raised, the better the situation of Hou Ye in the DPRK. This is always true! Therefore, the official believes that our county government must give full support to the fundraising meeting of Longmen Inn two days later! "

Lieutenant Wang, who had not spoken, finally spoke at this time. He stroked his beard and said: "Yes! The county magistrate's analysis is reasonable! Regardless of whether the sage has requirements for the amount of military funds raised, it is correct to raise more. ! It’s just that this fundraising meeting is for businessmen, what can our county government do?"

"Yes! What can our county government do?"

The rest of the people also looked puzzled.

The county magistrate He couldn't help but smiled and said, "Hehe! In this matter, our county government actually has a lot to do! At the beginning of the year, Hou Ye took over Lantian County and carried out a series of drastic reforms. Now Lantian County has become the world. In the place where merchants are the most important, not only a business department was established to manage merchants, but also the rogues in the city were cleaned up, creating a good business environment for merchants!

In this respect, the relationship between our county government and merchants is much closer than the relationship between county government and merchants in other counties. In this way, our participation in this fundraising conference is "famous as a teacher"!

After the discussion is over for a while, Mengxiancheng, you go to contact Lin Wenyuan to inquire about the fundraising meeting process and preparation process, if possible, by the way, inquire about Hou Ye's plan! "

This time, Li Zexuan bypassed the Lantian county government office and directly entrusted Lin Wenyuan to organize the fundraising meeting. This made He County feel a little worried. From seeing the news in the newspaper in the morning, before calling the county government officials, He County Ling has been thinking about why Li Zexuan left the fundraising meeting to Lin Wenyuan instead of the county government!

At first, he thought that his county magistrate had neglected his duty during the recent period. He had seriously reflected on what he had done during this period, but he did not find anything wrong or wrong!

After thinking about it and not thinking of the answer, the county magistrate He planned to let the county government participate in this fundraising meeting, in order to "restore" the county government's impression in Li Zexuan's mind!

(In fact, he thinks too much. Li Zexuan arranged for Li Ke to hand over the fundraising meeting to Lin Wenyuan. It was a subconscious act of "business in business", and he didn't think about it as much as the county magistrate.)

"Yes! The next official obeyed!"

Meng Xiancheng also heard an unusual smell from the last sentence of the county magistrate He, and he quickly gave his orders.

The magistrate He nodded, and then ordered: "Sun catches the head, at this fundraising meeting, you will bring a hundred government officials and deploy them inside and outside the Longmen Inn in advance. One is to ensure the safety of the money collected from the fundraising, and the other is to ensure that the money collected from the donation is safe. No one will be there to provoke trouble, the offender will take it directly and be taken to the county jail first! Make sure that the fundraising meeting goes smoothly!"

"Yes! The county magistrate can rest assured that Sun will definitely not let this fundraising meeting go wrong!"

Sun Catu clasped his fists and said loudly.

At the beginning, under the instruction of Li Zexuan, the Lantian county government expanded the three squads of bureaucrats several times. Sun Butou now has a large number of men. It can be said that the waist is twice as strong, and he has the confidence to do everything!

"Yeah! That's the best!"

The county magistrate Nodded with satisfaction, then his gaze swept over Sun's head, looked at Master Zhang, and said, "Master Zhang, it has been more than three months since the county government established the Department of Commerce and reformed the business tax. In the past three months, how much has the number of merchants registered by the Department of Commerce increased? What is the total amount of commercial taxes collected?"

The Department of Commerce was established in April this year, and it is now the end of July. It is indeed more than three months!

In addition, although the Department of Commerce is a department independent of the county government, it is very difficult to find relevant talents in a short time due to the initial establishment of the department. Therefore, the work of the Department of Commerce has always been staff of the county government. The one who came to serve concurrently, and the master book of Zhang, is in charge of the taxation and accounts of the Department of Commerce!

Zhang Zhubu is not only proficient in arithmetic, but also has an excellent memory. Hearing this, he pondered for a moment, then replied:

"Returning to the county magistrate, in the past three months, a total of 472 merchants have been added to the city. In addition to the original merchants, the number of merchants registered by the Department of Commerce has exceeded 600!

In the first month, the commercial tax collected by the Department of Commerce was 2,165, the second month was 5,728, and the third month was 9,724. Therefore, the total commercial tax collected by the Department of Commerce in the past three months is 17,617. All commercial taxes and accounts are in the county government warehouse. The county magistrate can send someone to check at any time! ! "

"Hiss~!"

At the beginning, Li Zexuan not only established the Department of Commerce and cleaned up the ruffian bullies in Lantian County ~www.ltnovel.com~, but also reformed the commercial tax, raising the commercial tax ratio from 30% of the original shop’s net profit to 6%. Five times the increase! Although the business tax ratio has been increased, the number of merchants in Lantian County has not decreased but increased!

Because in Lantian County, the property of merchants is protected by the government from infringement. The children of merchants can enter the county to study and take the entrance examination of Yanhuang Academy. In addition, open shops in Lantian County and don’t have to worry about rogues coming to collect protection fees. The sum of all these benefits is enough to offset the negative impact brought about by the increase in the business tax ratio. Therefore, there are more and more merchants and more and more shops in Lantian County!

Rao everyone had a relatively high estimate for the result of commercial tax collection in Lantian County before, but at this time, after hearing this figure from Zhang’s book, everyone couldn’t help taking a breath, because of this. The numbers are too amazing!

What is the concept of more than 17,000 business taxes? In the past, Lantian County levied less than two thousand commercial taxes in a year. As a result, the commercial tax collected in three months is more than eight times the commercial tax collected in the previous year!

What's even more frightening is the growth rate of the monthly business tax collected, which is amazing!

The first month is still more than 2,000, the second month is directly more than 5,000, and the third month is even more ruthless, reaching more than 9,000. God knows how many months will be in the fourth and fifth months?

"Yeah! Master Zhang, two days later, out of these seven thousand six hundred and seventy-seven pens, take out ten thousand pens, and you will take the place of the county office to participate in the fund-raising meeting! This can also be regarded as Lantian County for me. The imperial court has done a little bit of power in the Turkic battle!"

The hall was quiet for a while, and the county magistrate He finally spoke.
