Chapter 2078: Lantian County was pitted!

"...The magistrate, the sacred decree rewards the businessmen who participated

in the fundraising meeting yesterday. In addition to public praise in the

"Datang Daily", the merchants who donated money yesterday can receive the same

amount of tax exemption this year! Yesterday! Among the merchants who donated

money, more than half came from our Lantian County, and the total amount of

money donated by these merchants was nearly 260,000~!

If Lantian County implements tax collection in accordance with the will of the

Holy Spirit, wouldn't it be necessary to collect 260,000 tons of business tax

less? The county government’s warehouse was not rich. Yesterday, it donated

10,000 yuan. After that, the county government will expand the city and assist

Yunshan to lay electrical wires for the county. Now this letter of the sage’s

will, and the county government will collect it in the future. The business

tax will be reduced sharply, how can this be good~? "

In Lantian County's county government office, Meng County Cheng said to the

magistrate He, sitting above him, with a notice in his hand.

In the hall, besides them, there are Zhang Zhubu and Wang Xianwei. It can be

said that the officials in charge of the Lantian county government are all

here. As for Hu Dianshi and Sun Datou, they are both in charge of prison and

prison. Public security did not participate in this small-scale meeting within

the county government.

The notice in Mengxiancheng's hand is naturally the commendation merchant's

notice posted in Chang'an City and surrounding counties early this morning.

All four of you have read it. Mengxiancheng's words are gone, and the master

book cannot help it. Open the mouth:

"My magistrate, Meng County Cheng’s concerns are not unreasonable! At the

beginning, Lord Hou returned the financial power of Lantian County to the

county office, and explained that we would take the taxes collected from the

people and use them for the people. Commerce in this city has just started to

pick up. Seeing that the commercial tax collected is increasing month by

month, the county government dares to start many large and small projects.

At the moment we have set up such a big stall and borrowed a lot of money from

Yanhuang Bank. Moreover, the expansion of the city and the laying of electric

wires will require a lot of money. If the tax decree is implemented according

to the will of the holy, the remaining five months of this year I am afraid

that we can only collect one or two thousand business taxes, which is nothing

short of a drop in the bucket!

As a result, the two projects to be promoted in the future will not only stop

directly, but our county government owes the Yanhuang Bank some money, and I

am afraid it will be difficult to pay off! Therefore, the Xiaguan thought,

otherwise our county would not implement the taxation decree according to the

will of Shengshang, and still collect business tax according to the original

policy~? "

It has to be said that the imperial decree of Li Er's award to the businessmen

who participated in the fundraising meeting yesterday has somewhat disrupted

the pace of development of Lantian County. If the tax reduction decree on the

imperial edict is implemented, Lantian County will suffer a huge financial

loss. Loss!

First of all, there are currently more than 600 merchants in Lantian County,

but there were more than 300 participating in the fundraising meeting

yesterday. In general, merchants who are willing to participate in the

fundraising meeting at least prove that their stores are on track and even

profitable. Quite abundance, these merchants are the current major taxpayers

in Lantian County;

The reason why the other three hundred merchants did not participate in the

fundraising conference, except for some people who are really stingy by

nature, most of the merchants have just moved to Lantian County, and their

shops have established a foothold in Lantian County, in other words, they have

not yet made a profit. Or there is very little profit, which leads to tight

hands. These merchants are currently the objects of Lantian County's

government that need to support, and they cannot contribute much tax to

Lantian County.

If taxes are levied in accordance with the tax reduction decree of Li Er, it

is really conceivable how miserable the financial situation of Lantian County

in the next few months will be!

In addition, the commercial tax collection ratio in Lantian County is one from

six, while the commercial tax collection ratio in other prefectures and

counties in Datang is one from 30. This will cause a problem:

The two businessmen both participated in the fundraising meeting yesterday and

both donated 1,000 guan, but one of them was from Lantian County and the other

was from another county. According to Li Er’s will, the two of them left this

year. Over time, you will get a thousand tax-free quotas. This seems to be no

problem, but if you combine the different commercial tax collection ratios in

Lantian County and outside Lantian County, it will be too problematic!

According to the commercial tax levy ratio of 30 in most counties and counties

of Datang, the merchant from outside the county who donated 1,000 guan, as

long as the total profit of doing business in the remaining five months of

this year does not exceed 30,000 guan, he does not need The court pays extra

business tax! In other words, only when his five-month total profit reaches

30,000 guan, can he use up the one-thousand guanxi tax exemption he got

because of the fundraising meeting!

But in fact, there are still very few merchants in the entire Datang who can

make a profit of 30,000 guan in five months. That is to say, the businessman

from outside the county who donated 1,000 guan received a 1,000 guan tax

exemption, but the fact is He can't use up this quota at all, because his

five-month profit is likely to be only 10,000 or less!

Calculated in this way, the actual loss of the royal court on the merchant’s

business tax was only about one-thirtieth of the ten thousand guan, almost

three hundred guan or less!

But the merchant in Lantian County who also donated 1,000 tans is different.

According to Lantian County’s commercial tax levy ratio of six out of one, the

total profit of his business in the next five months of this year will only

reach 6,000. It will be able to use up all of the 1,000 tax-free allowances!

At this time, the actual business tax that the Lantian county government lost

to this businessman was a thousand consistent, and no discount was taken!

Therefore, of the 428,500 donations raised by the fundraising conference

yesterday, even if the amount donated by the merchants in Lantian County and

the merchants in other counties accounted for half, the county government in

Lantian County will have five remaining funds this year. The business tax lost

in a month is far greater than the business tax lost by the court!

Not to mention that in the donations made yesterday, nearly 60% of Lantian

County businessmen donated! Moreover, the imperial court levied commercial

taxes from more than three hundred states and counties of Datang. Even if more

than three hundred merchants were less taxed this year, it would be

insignificant under the huge base! But for the county government of Lantian

County, it is different. The reduction of more than 300 merchants to pay taxes

means that the next business tax collected by the county government will be

reduced by more than half!

So no matter from which point of view, the influence of Li Er's decree on the

county government of Lantian County is much greater than that of the imperial

court, and it directly smashed Lantian County!

In the hall, the last sentence of Zhang Zhu’s book made the eyes of all four

of you flashed strangely. Before Li Zexuan took over Lantian County, they were

in charge of Lantian County, and they were supervised by various

administrative agencies of the court. No one of them dared not listen to or

obey any administrative orders or instructions of the second. They were all

executed unconditionally, because at that time they received the royal salary

and the imperial order official, but now...

"Sir, Master Zhang's proposal is not a big deal~!"

Seeing that no one in the house was continuing to speak, Lieutenant Wang

couldn’t help but speak, “Now Lantian County is the fief of Lord Hou.

According to the Law of the Tang Dynasty, within the fief, the landlord can

appropriately enact another law and have independent expropriation. The power

of taxation. Since Hou Ye took over Lantian, the taxes collected by Lantian

County not only need not be handed over to the court, but even the proportion

of taxes can be determined by Hou Ye!

Today, this sacred decree of the sage has too great an impact on Lantian

County. I can fully exercise Lantian County’s right to tax independently and

not implement this tax exemption policy on the sacred decree! "

After Wang Xianwei said, the three people in the hall all cast their gazes on

He County Order.

Li Zexuan is not in Lantian County now, and the magistrate He is the nominal

chief executive of Lantian County. In the end, the magistrate He has to decide

on this matter!

In fact, the county magistrate He was also weighing in his mind at this time.

He didn’t know what Meng County Cheng, Zhang Zhubu and Wang Xianwei said. It

is undeniable that Li Er’s commendation decree is for Lantian County’s " "The

harm" is huge, and Lantian County can also not execute it, but...

"Everyone is right. According to the Law of the Tang Dynasty, Lantian County

does not need to exempt businessmen in the county from tax according to the

imperial edict. But have you ever thought that if the county government really

does this, let us Lantian? Businessmen in the county, especially those who

donated money at yesterday's fundraising meeting, how do they feel?

They responded to the call of the county government and the Yanhuang Chamber

of Commerce, went to participate in the fundraising meeting, and contributed

their part to the Tang Dynasty and the court. Now the court wants to reward

the businessmen who participated in the fundraising meeting, but they only

Because they are merchants in Lantian County and cannot receive corresponding

rewards, do you think they will feel chilly? "

After considering it for a long time, Madam He finally spoke.

His words caused the three people in the hall to fall into silence.

Objectively speaking, what Meng County Cheng, Zhang Zhubu and Wang Xianwei are

considering is Lantian County's current interests. It is true that they made

such a proposal, but in the eyes of County Madam He, they are a bit short-

sighted!

Seeing that Mengxian Cheng and others were contemplative, he took a deep

breath, and then said: "At the beginning, Hou Ye ordered the county government

to establish the Department of Commerce, and he was determined to eliminate

the long-suffering commercial malpractices of the Tang Dynasty. Lantian County

has created a good business environment for businessmen all over the world, so

as to vigorously develop Lantian County's commerce, so that the county

government can collect more business taxes for people's livelihood

construction!

After several months of hard work, the business environment in Lantian County

has improved greatly. There are more and more merchants in the city, and

businesses are also thriving. Do you want to let this hard-won situation go to

waste? We must know that today most of the merchants in the city recognize the

county government very much. Once this person's heart is cold and loose, it

will not be easy to get together again! "

As the person with the highest official position in the county, and also

experienced a lot of experience under Li Zexuan, He County magistrates

undoubtedly has a more long-term vision. What Meng County Cheng sees are

Lantian County’s current interests, and He County magistrates worry. Yes, the

good situation they have painstakingly created will be completely vanished

because of a wrong decision!

"What the county magistrate said is extremely true, but if we implement tax

exemptions for those merchants in accordance with the imperial edict, how can

we solve the current financial difficulties of Lantian County~?"

After a long silence, Master Zhang asked with his hands.

This is also the issue that Mengxian Cheng and Wang Xianwei are most concerned

about right now.

The county magistrate He squeezed his beard under his jaw and said: "The

county government has huge difficulties right now. This is a fact and urgently

needs to be resolved. It is a must and the county government needs to maintain

a good business environment in Lantian County. Bottom line. No matter what,

this official will not agree to any decision that may destroy the current good

situation in Lantian County, and this official believes that Hou Ye will not

agree!

As for how to solve the difficulties faced by the county government after the

tax exemption, since the official and you have no good solutions, you can only

ask Ji Yu Hou! This official will find a way to communicate this matter and

our thoughts to Lord Hou, it all depends on how Lord Hou makes a decision~! "

Before Li Zexuan went to the Xuanjia Army to take up his post, he had

confessed to the county magistrate that if he encountered something uncertain,

he could transmit the news to the army through the telegraph of the Academy or

the Hou Mansion.

The incident that the county government has encountered now really embarrassed

the county magistrate He and others, and Li Zexuan can only make up his mind

for the current plan~!

"Okay! Then tell Master Hou about this, let Master Hou decide~!"

Meng Xiancheng nodded and agreed.

"Master Hou has always been resourceful and wealthy, and the things that are

currently dilemma for us will definitely be solved in the hands of Master

Hou~!"

"Yes~!"

Zhang Zhubu and Wang Xianwei both nodded in agreement.

A controversy was finally resolved temporarily. After all, Li Zexuan is the

master of Lantian County and the backbone of them!

Taiyuan Inn.

"Master, the medicine is ready~!"

Three quarters later, the little medicine boy walked in from the door with a

bowl of steaming medicinal soup on a tray. Of course, the one who opened the

door for him was the Dugu Flying Eagle who had been following him!

In order to save the dying Dugu Xin, Dugu Feiying also worked hard, and

directly became the small follower of Gongsun Liang and Yaotong Xiaobao, just

to not miss the best time to cure Dugu Xin.

"Okay! Come and feed the general's uniform~!"

Gongsunliang, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch, opened his

eyes~www.mtlnovel.com~ and stood up and said.

"Yes! Master~!"

Yaotong nodded in response, and then he came to the bed with the medicine

bowl.

Tie Dan walked forward with great eyesight and lifted Dugu Xin from the bed so

that the little medicine boy could feed the medicine. When Dugu Feiying saw

it, he wanted to come forward and help, but Gongsun Liang stopped and said,

"There are two of them. It is enough for people to feed medicine! When the

decoction works, the two poisons in the patient's body will fight each other,

and the patient will be very painful and may subconsciously make some

overreactions. You can help the old man hold down your brother, and the old

man will give the injection! "

"...Good~!"

When Gongsun Liang explained the general process of treating Duguxin to

everyone, Dugu Feiying was taking the medicine boy to Huichuntang to grab the

medicine, so he didn't understand why Duguxin would be very painful when the

decoction worked. But Dugu Feiying knew that the time was urgent, so he did

not ask carefully, and directly suppressed the doubts in his heart. He walked

quickly to the side of Duguxin according to what Gongsun Liang said, and

pinched the two of Duguxin with his hands. Arm.
