Protect Our Patriarch

...

"Absurd, this fact is too absurd." Prince Dexin heard Deshun's old thing, and even pulled him into the water together, and immediately felt like a thunder in his heart, "Deshun, you are tarnishing the royal family." The majesty and honor!"

"Dexin, what are you jumping?" Prince Deshun squinted, glanced at his old opponent, and sneered. The concept. Why did the royal family not be able to check the tax if the family was able to check it? Could it be that your Prince Dexin’s Mansion really had an extremely serious tax evasion?"

In Dagan, all farmland or other industries have to pay taxes according to regulations.

The imperial family has many prefectural and prince’s mansions, each of which is a giant, and each mansion has a large number of high-quality farms and various industries.

This part of the industry belongs to the semi-independent industries of each government. It is operated by them, and their output is also used by the government itself. For example, the Baiyun Tower under the name of King Hengjun belongs to this category.

In addition, the royal family also has various imperial estates.

These imperial estates belong to the family property, but are shared by the entire imperial family. This part of the assets is very large, and it is under the unified jurisdiction and operation of the royal family's clan residence. Its output is mainly used for the basic support of most of the royal family, as well as subsidies for the outstanding children of the royal family, and so on.

For example, in addition to the national tax support, a considerable part of your majesty's support is provided by the royal family's clan residence.

However, regardless of whether it is a semi-independent property of the royal family or the clan property controlled by the royal clan family, taxes are still taxed under the Dagan system, and the tax rate paid is exactly the same as that of other families, and there is no exception.

This is also the rule set by the founding emperor Ziwei Xuandu following the immortal dynasty at the beginning of the founding of the country.

After all, if the royal family does not need to pay taxes, there will be countless small families that will attach their properties to the royal family. As long as they are willing to give 30% to half of the tax payable in return, it is natural that the royal family who lacks money are willing to accept the affiliation. Over time, didn't all the inheritance of the aristocratic family depend on the royal family?

In addition, if the royal family does not pay taxes, how can other families' industries compete with the royal family's industries? There is no competition at all in terms of cost alone. Over time, isn't this world all the royal property?

If this is the model, let's not say whether the family is willing to continue to play with your royal family. If the whole world is a royal property and there is no need to pay taxes, where does the tax come from?

The aristocratic family might as well sell all the household belongings, and then go to the immortal court to buy the land and live their lives.

This kind of national structure is afraid that it will be over if it will not last for many years.

Therefore, royal industry taxation is also an extremely important part of the taxation of the chief executives. Because of this, Prince Deshun jumped so confidently.

Prince Dexin's face suddenly became gloomy, and his heart was a little flustered.

As a prince, how could he not know the virtues of his prince’s mansion?

Relying on the fact that no one dared to investigate, in the past few years, my own property has been cheating on the tax payment. Although he did not calculate the specific figures in detail, he still wants to know that the loophole is absolutely huge.

Moreover, as the saying goes, "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked." Prince Dexin is like that. The situation of his children and grandchildren, and those at the Prince's County and Prince's Mansion are naturally not much better.

If the taxation is really thoroughly investigated, it may be possible to make a big disturbance.

"Your Majesty." Prince Dexin turned to look at Emperor Longchang, and said in grief and angrily, "Prince Deshun really does everything in order to support King Anjun. At this moment, my Dexin line is about to help. When King Kang was drawing up the entire Southern Xinjiang conquest plan, he encouraged tax inspections. He clearly wanted to disrupt our plan and was suspected of dragging it back."

The county princes of his line, as well as the aristocratic families who did not want to be tax inspected, joined together, accusing Prince Deshun of ignoring the country's plans, and even stumbling the King Kang at a critical moment.

Even if it is necessary to check the tax, it will not be too late to check after the King Kang returns victorious.

Prince Deshun sneered: "You have to draw up a plan to conquer southern Xinjiang. Just make it yourself. There is no contradiction and conflict between the tax inspection and this matter. Master Meng Yuanbai and his team have sufficient taxation. Experience, you don’t need to bother the Prince’s Mansion or the Prince’s Mansion to come forward, you can check it clearly and plainly on your own."

"Your Majesty." The ancestor of Dingguo Yinda also said sternly, "Prince Dexin's lineage is so evasive, looking for excuses to find reasons to avoid tax inspections. It is really hard for the ministers not to doubt whether they have a huge tax issue. Question. Maybe, it's really rotten to the bone."

"What's more, what an important strategic plan is to conquer southern Xinjiang? To conquer the General Marshal, if there are even loopholes in the tax payable, how can people believe that he is capable and qualified to preside over the overall situation of conquering southern Xinjiang? Maybe, De Xin Yimai proposed this plan just to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune from the war."

"To sum up, the old minister proposed that the Kangjun Palace and the Anjun Palace can conduct tax inspections at the same time. If the error of the Kangjun Palace's tax payable is not more than 20%, no, 30%! As long as it is not more than 30%, I Wang Yinda is the first force. King Tingkang became the general marshal of the conquest of southern Xinjiang."

At this time, the Great Emperor Longchang sitting in the emperor chair did not have the impetuous and casual at first, but frowned slightly, his face was cold, his eyes were introverted, and almost no one could see his thoughts.

He didn't even speak out despite the noise from below.

Until Wang Yinda finished the last sentence.

Only then did Emperor Longchang look at Prince Dexin and Prince Kang, with a calm expression: "Dexin, Chengsi, what do you say?"

Upon seeing this, the old Yao sighed deeply in his heart.

Wang Shouzhe was really ruthless, and his grasp of people's hearts was truly absolute. His attack not only hit the weakness of Dexin's line, but also hit the weakness of Your Majesty.

The foundation of a country's strong national strength is population and taxation.

With sufficient tax revenue, the country can expand faster, own more land, and feed more people. Only by entering a virtuous circle can the country become stronger.

Just as Wang Shouzhe "discussed the emperor" while drinking privately with Long Wuji, thinking that his Majesty conquered the Southern Qin to seek the Western Jin Dynasty, with one enemy and two seemingly majestic, but why there is no real result until now? Instead, they beat the treasury and made the treasury poor!

In the final analysis, it still lies in population and money.

Without enough money, how can we feed more troops? How can subsidies cultivate more masters?

It is said that the Barbarian Gu tribe in Southern Xinjiang is difficult to fight, but if the leading army is stronger, they can organize an army and logistics comparable to the immortal dynasty, and sweep the Barbarian Gu tribe in the southern border like a bag.

Previously, his Majesty watched Wang Shouzhe extremely profitable and asked him to raise Longzuo County's taxes by 50% within ten years. But among them, there is not necessarily the idea of ​​exploring Wang Shouzhe's bottom, to see if he can really come up with a plan to make a fortune for the chief executive.

In case Wang Shouzhe has any reluctant to make a fortune plan in his hands, this squeeze may be directly squeezed out.

Rectify taxes!

Your Majesty doesn't know, whether the royal family or aristocratic family, more or less will make a fuss about taxation. If everyone can pay taxes in full, the national strength of the big cadres will inevitably rise.

Just as Meng Yuanbai said, this is a disease that is hard to return. In the face of this stubborn illness, even if your majesty is willing to rectify it, it is a dog biting the hedgehog, unable to speak.

But now, your Majesty's life is almost exhausted, which is precisely the most powerful and the most suitable time.

It just so happened that Wang Shouzhe "unintentionally" gave a plan that seemed feasible.

Seeing his majesty looks like this, it seems that he has a secret plan in his heart.

With emotion in his heart, Lao Yao couldn't help looking at King Kang and Prince Dexin with a little sympathy.

I really don’t know if they are too bad luck, or they are used to saving others by themselves. What kind of strategy is not easy to come up with. They have to make a fuss about the tax inspection and embarrass the Wang family?

As a result, Wang Shouzhe used this to counterattack, and instead plunged them into a tax investigation.

Following the calm question of Emperor Longchang.

Both Prince Dexin and Prince Kang trembled in their hearts. They knew his Majesty's personality too well. Asking with this tone and expression is definitely not asking for their opinions.

But can their taxes be checked? As soon as the investigation goes on, I am afraid that something big will happen.

Immediately, Prince Dexin bit his head and said: "Your Majesty, please think twice. Now the battle in Southern Xinjiang is imminent, we must not..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the Great Emperor Longchang sneer.

The emperor stopped paying attention to him, his eyes swept across the entire Dinggan Hall, the voice was not loud, but it was full of the coercion of the emperor's horror: "You all keep saying that you can't check it, and you must focus on the overall situation."

"I, just ask you one."

"Why the Changning Wang Clan found it, the Dingguo Prince's Palace found it, the Anjun Prince's Palace found it, and it's an investigation of you, it's breaking the overall situation?"

The invisible anger of the Great Emperor Ling Xu suppressed everyone's head down like a substance, and cold sweat continued to slide on his forehead. This is not only the power of the emperor, but also a crush on the level of life and strength.

"Meng Yuanbai." Longchang the Great said indifferently.

"The minister is here." Meng Yuanbai bowed in response.

His face was pale and his body was wet with sweat. He understood that he was completely involved in the big event, and if he was not careful, he might step into the abyss.

"I know that you are'excellent in business', and have always been'iron-faced selfless'." Emperor Longchang's tone eased a little, "I give you the [Canglong Sword and Sword Order] to preside over the tax inspection. , Kill without mercy!"

Canglong Sword and Sword Order? This is a sword order that can temporarily mobilize the town's national road tool [Canglong Sword]. Under this sword order, who dares to act rashly will be complicit in crime.

All the civil and military ministers were shocked when they heard this. Your Majesty is determined to check taxes!

Prince Dexin's line was even more sweaty and flustered. What should I do about this matter?

"Chen, you will die without hesitation." Even though Meng Yuanbai had ten thousand reluctances in his heart, he did not dare to resist the will. Fortunately, with the Azure Dragon Sword and Sword Order, at least no one would dare to interfere with things.

Big trouble!

There are hundreds of civil and military ministers present, all of whom have family businesses, and there will be more or less loopholes in taxation. Once found on them...

But who dares to disobey the might of the emperor?

"Your Majesty, although Lord Meng is skilled in tax inspections, he is ultimately limited in manpower. It is impossible to thoroughly investigate the family in the country." Today's Prince Deshun, who is returning to the Great Court for the first time in hundreds of years, is particularly active. He has a clear mind, "In my opinion, it’s better to concentrate on investigating the two prince’s mansions of me and Dexin, the two prefectures of Chengsi and Mingyuan, and the two government offices of Anguo and Dingguo as representatives of tax inspections. ."

"As the prince, the king of the county, and the prince of the country, I should be an example of the world."

"As for other royal families, aristocratic families can first conduct self-examination and self-correction internally. If they find any omissions, they can go to the local government, county, or Sancai division to make up the tax."

As soon as Prince Deshun made this statement, all the members present except Dexin’s line and Zhao’s line were relieved secretly. Although self-examination and tax reimbursement are very likely to hurt their muscles and bones, they are better than being After finding out, we nakedly announced that the sky is fine. Moreover, since it is a self-examination, it is up to you to make up the tax, and there is a lot of leeway in it.

Everyone instinctively subconsciously had a good impression of Prince Deshun.

However, in the next instant, their goodwill was lost again.

It was only because Prince Deshun added: “After the royal families and aristocratic families have checked themselves and corrected themselves, the Sancai Division will be able to conduct random checks across the country. At that time, if there are any missing family members, they will not only be fined a hundred times the tax. The relevant accountant must bear the guilt, and if the circumstances are serious, he can be sent to the cannon fodder camp to make atonement."

Everyone suddenly sweated. This is too cruel. In this way, even if other members of the family want to cheat on taxation, the Patriarch and the Accountant will not do it.

"If someone reports a family of tax evasion, once verified, a huge reward can be given to the whistleblower." "If it is an unjust complaint, it does not matter, but the family who has been wronged can be commended and awarded the title of'Tax Model', Chengshoufu, Junshoufu Preferential treatment can be given in all aspects."

One by one, the measures popped out of Prince Deshun's mouth, as if they had been well thought out a long time ago.

Even the Great Emperor Longchang kept his eyes on Prince Deshun. This old guy has been fishing on the banks of the West Sea for hundreds of years, and he has made a lot of progress.

After thinking for a while, Emperor Longchang said: "Deshun's words are quite reasonable. If this is the case, then check from the Dexin, Deshun Prince's Mansion, Kang's and Anjun Wang's Mansion, and the two great kingdoms."

"The rest of the royal family will conduct self-examination and correction at the same time, make up for tax evasion within 20 years, and re-register the concealed, few, and omission industries. Those who find major faults after self-examination shall be severely punished."

"Retreat!"

The voice of the great emperor rumbling and reverberating in the Dinggan Hall.

With a final word, no one can refute it.

"Send your majesty."

All the civil and military ministers saluted and drank together.

...

This time, the dynasty will fluctuate greatly, and it will naturally arouse a lot of private discussions.

Emperor Longchang went to court, but did not go to the Zhuozheng Pavilion. Instead, he went for a walk in the imperial garden to feed the little wolf cubs, and then he was going to visit Wang Anye and other bear babies.

He walked indifferently, his face no longer majestic, but a relaxed look.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations." Old Yao said with a smile, "After this tax rectification, the country's unhealthy trends of tax evasion and tax evasion will definitely be eliminated, and the national strength will also be greatly improved."

"You old thing, I was used as a gun by Wang Shouzhe. Are you so happy?" Longchang said with an angry stare. "Honestly, have you taken refuge in King An a long time ago? , Abdicated to let Xian?"

"Your Majesty is wronged~~ Lao Nusheng is your Majesty’s person, and death is your Majesty’s ghost." Lao Yao said with a look of "horror" and said, "Old Slave is happy for your Majesty~ You have long wanted to rectify taxes, but I haven't been able to find a suitable cause or opportunity. Now that Wang Shouzhe's trouble is right in your arms, isn't it?"

"Smelly shameless old thing." After the Great Emperor Longchang grinned and cursed, his face gradually became solemn, "There is no reason or opportunity for me, I just can't make up my mind. If you want to convince the public, you must first follow the tax inspection. The royal begins. The royal face, this wave is about to fall."

"Wang Shouzhe's counterattack this time has made me determined. This is a stab at extending the head, and a stab at shrinking the head. It is a stubborn illness. Of course, the faster the knife, the harder the attack, and the cleaner it will be."

"Although I am old, my prestige and prestige are still there, and everyone knows that I am now moody and temperamental. It is still unclear how many burials are carried out before I die. If I act, they will not dare to mess around. No Taking advantage of this opportunity to cure this stubborn disease, is it possible to wait for the new emperor's superiors to toss this matter?"

What was the situation at the beginning of the new emperor's supremacy, could Emperor Longchang not know? At that time, there were a bunch of elders and a bunch of relatives around him, and his own prestige had not yet been achieved. How could he do something so easy now?

"Your Majesty Shengming." Lao Yao sighed and said flatly, "It is this time that the prestige of Prince Dexin and King Kang will be eroded."

"That's what they are responsible for, and they don't even dare to accept the 30% error. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?" Longchang said with a slightly dissatisfied expression. Si Na’s child was not originally like that, all these years have been taught to Dexin badly."

"It just happened to take the opportunity to beat Wu Chengsi, to make him understand that if he still wants to fight for the position of the emperor, he has to sit upright. He is covered with sieves, how can he convince the crowd?"

"The old slave also hopes that after this experience, King Kang can learn from the pain and truly become a capable and responsible prospective emperor." Lao Yao echoed.

"That depends on whether he can really be reborn in Nirvana when he is facing a difficult situation. If he can't, he can only be eliminated." Emperor Longchang said calmly, "The dispute between the emperor and the son cannot tolerate sloppy. This is about my work. Thousands of national shipments."

"Your Majesty, Wang Shouzhe's servant won't come this time with righteous resistance. Do you want the old slave to meet him in person, and then take him to see your Majesty?"

"Huh! It's not necessary, what's my identity? Is it because he wants to see him, and he doesn't see him if he wants to?"

The two masters and slaves, you say and I say, gradually go away.

...

Almost at the same time.

After coming to the court, Meng Yuanbai immediately summoned a few of San Caisi's cronies and rushed to Dingguo Gongfu in the name of tax investigation.

Once in the Dingguo Gongfu.

Meng Yuanbai sent his cronies out, and then grabbed Wang Yuchang, the Patriarch of the Wang family who was in charge of entertaining him: "Patriarch Yuchang, is Wang Shouzhe still in the Wang family? Please take me to see him immediately."

"Master Meng, stay calm and restless." Wang Yuchang pulled him away calmly, "At this hour, most of Shouzhe is still taking a nap. Don't be in a hurry, let's have a cup of tea and chat first."

Nap?

Meng Yuanbai's expression was stagnant, he couldn't believe it, Wang Shouzhe's servant upset the Dinggan Temple and implicated the entire world.

He is still in the mood to take a nap?

"Patriarch Yuchang." Meng Yuanbai forcedly resisted the urge to scold his mother, took a deep breath and said in salute, "Life is a matter of life, please."

Wang Yuchang showed a look of embarrassment: "When Shouzhe takes a nap, it is not gratifying to disturb."

After a pause, he solemnly nodded his head again: "But since it was Mr. Meng's request, then Wang will go out. My lord, please come with me."

"Thank you Yuchang Patriarch." Meng Yuanbai saluted again gratefully, but muttered in his heart. Seeing Wang Shouzhe, he felt as if he owed a favor to an adult.

Wang Yuchang led Meng Yuanbai to the Four Seasons Garden.

And "forcibly interrupted" Wang Shouzhe's nap.

After a short while, Wang Shouzhe received Meng Yuanbai in the study. He smiled and said in person: "Master Meng is here, Shouzhe has lost a long way to welcome, forgive the sins and forgive sins."

Unexpectedly.

Meng Yuanbai took the lead to get up and salute deeply with a solemn face: "Patriarch Shouzhe, Yuanbai had previously been guilty of the crime, so please ask Patriarch Haihan for one or two."

"How dare, how dare." Wang Shouzhe replied politely, "Master Meng is one heart for the public, how can Shouzhe have complaints? What's more, the adults have proved Wang's innocence. Master Meng, these wild teas are Shouzhe The unintentional gain of the great-grandson is crude, but it has a special flavor."

The best tea in his hand, of course, is Wang Lixian's shaking leaves of life. It's just too precious, he wouldn't be willing to share it if he wasn't really close.

"Great-grandson, but the child of Anye? I heard that he now lives in His Majesty’s Wangxian Pavilion and is very much loved by His Majesty." Meng Yuanbai took a sip and praised, "Good tea, good tea Patriarch Shouzhe is really a person with profound blessings, and the children are outstanding each one."

"The generation of Guilong Meng's is also a generation of talents." Wang Shouzhe smiled and said to each other, "The third grade can be expected."

The two of them gradually got acquainted with each other after some commercial touts.

Meng Yuanbai revealed his true face and said bitterly: "Patriarch Shouzhe, I have learned your greatness for your two counterattacks. However, you have given me Lao Meng a pitfall. Nowadays. , Zhao has hated me to the bone. Prince Dexin also regarded me as a thorn in the flesh."

"Even, in the future, families of all sizes throughout the country will secretly scold me Meng Yuanbai~www.readwn.com~ Patriarch Shouzhe, where does this tell me Meng Yuanbai?"

"Congratulations to Master Meng, you are going to be remembered in history." Wang Shouzhe said with his hand.

go down in history!

The ghosts want to go down in history, Meng Yuanbai's mouth twitched: "Patriarch Shouzhe don't want to laugh, please show me a clear path."

"Ming Lu? Does Lord Meng still have the heart to take refuge in King Kang?" Wang Shouzhe asked curiously.

"How is it possible that King Kang hates me now. Moreover, he is a person of narrow temperament and cold nature. I don't dare to take refuge in him." Meng Yuanbai shook his head and said with hope in his eyes. Please take care of Patriarch Shouzhe."

"Master Meng is polite, support each other, support each other." Wang Shouzhe smiled and returned the courtesy, "After this matter, I will introduce King An for you."

"Okay, okay, okay~, since I and Shouzhe are already in the same boat." Meng Yuanbai, who had just taken refuge in, knew that he should give a "vouch for fame", rolled up his sleeves and said vigorously, "This Once, Shouzhe, you can do what you want to do. Watching Zhe’s Patriarch from Mengmou used the plan several times, and I’m afraid it’s not as simple as checking taxes."

"Brother Yuanbai deserves to be the Director of the Sancai Department." Wang Shouzhe smiled lightly. "It is enough to check the tax normally, but Brother Yuanbai should pay more attention to the traces of a large amount of unidentified financial sources..."

Unknown financial source?

Meng Yuanbai shook his body and looked at Wang Shouzhe in disbelief: "Does Patriarch Shouzhe mean..."

But in an instant, he was excited again: "Brother Shouzhe is indeed a good method, Yuan Bai admires and admires it. You can rest assured, as long as he has done it boldly, there must be traces. Yuan Bai's men have a lot of sense of smell. A keen wizard."

He didn't expect that as soon as he got on the boat, he ushered in a splendid feat.

...
