"Let's let it go! Let's let it go!"

Compared with the martial law in Taiyuan City, Lantian County is peaceful,

just like usual. However, at noon, there was a team of government officials

carrying papers and pastes, shuttled through the streets and alleys. They

posted two announcements on the walls of every key intersection. It didn’t

take long before those announcements. , It attracted many people from the

past!

"The sage has a purpose. The 713 people who participated in the fundraising

meeting yesterday were selfless and generous. It is the righteousness of the

country. It is a tribute to the merchants who donated money yesterday. This

year, the merchants who donated money can receive the same amount of tax

exemption this year! The same is true in Lantian County! It!"

Such a notice immediately attracted everyone's ideas, especially the business

people.

"Huh~? Isn't this the imperial decree of your majesty to commend the

businessmen of the fundraising meeting this morning?"

Soon, someone recognized the source of the content in this notice. It was a

sacred decree issued to Li Er this morning. In the morning, this decree was

posted on the streets of Chang'an City in the form of notices. Now, Lantian

County is adjacent to Chang'an City, so the news came quickly. In the morning,

the people in Lantian County were still discussing this matter!

"Why did this notice appear in Lantian County? Could it be that the

preferential commercial tax policies mentioned in the imperial edict will also

be implemented in Lantian County?"

Someone couldn't help but wonder.

Because this imperial decree came out from the palace early this morning, it

is understandable that Chang'an City, as the capital of the capital, was the

first to post this notice. However, Lantian County is only 20 or 30 miles away

from Chang'an City, and the horse rides fast, half way. The notice could be

sent from Chang'an to Lantian within an hour, but after the notice was posted

on Chang'an City, there was no movement in Lantian County, and there was no

movement all morning!

This calmed down those businessmen who were originally elated and thought they

were about to receive commercial tax concessions. Everyone couldn’t help but

talk in private, thinking that Lantian County’s county government would not

follow the imperial court’s steps and carry out the imperial decree. The

commercial tax reduction and exemption mentioned above!

After all, Lantian County is Li Zexuan’s fief, and in terms of attributes, it

is completely different from other states and counties. Here, Li Zexuan is the

king, and accordingly has the autonomy of taxation, so the Department of

Commerce was able to reduce the proportion of commercial taxes in Lantian

County. One out of thirty is upgraded to one out of six!

And yesterday’s fundraising meeting was held in Lantian County. The people

also knew that the fundraising meeting was mostly local businessmen in Lantian

County. If Lantian County government implemented the business tax reduction

and exemption as mentioned in the imperial decree, In the next few months of

this year, Lantian County’s commercial tax revenue will be greatly reduced!

Based on this, the discussion in Lantian County about the imperial decree of

Li Er's commendation this morning has become smaller and smaller, so that

after lunch, many people have forgotten this!

But who knows, at this moment, a notice like this suddenly appeared in the

city, reminding the people of the decree of commendation that was discussed

this morning!

"Hey! It seems that it is really possible! Didn't you see the line at the back

of the notice? The same goes for Lantian County! It means that the businessmen

in Lantian County who participated in the fundraising meeting yesterday can

enjoy the imperial decree just like businessmen in other places. Tax relief

policy!"

A middle-aged man in Chinese clothes noticed the words at the end of the

notice and couldn't help but smile and said.

"Eh? Really! The same goes for Lantian County! Doesn't it mean that people in

our county who participated in the fundraising meeting yesterday can also

enjoy tax relief?"

"Haha! The old man donated two hundred guanans yesterday, which means that in

the next few months, the old man can justly reduce the two hundred guanxi

business taxes?"

"Haha! The old man donated five hundred tongs yesterday!"

"The old man donated a thousand coins!"

In fact, merchants outside Lantian County don’t care much about the benefit of

tax reduction, because outside Lantian County, the business tax ratio in each

state and county is one 30%. Some merchants can’t pay a few money all year

round. Taxes, even if they are given so many tax allowances, they can't run

out!

But the merchants in Lantian County are different. The business tax ratio here

is one out of six. They have to pay a lot of business tax every month. If they

can have a few hundred tax cuts, it can reduce them. A lot of burden!

"Boss Hu is wise! After going back and forth, not only did you not lose money,

but you gained a reputation. It can be described as fame and fortune! Haha!"

"Haha! Ashamed and ashamed! The old man originally responded to the call of

the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce and planned to contribute a bit to the

country, but he would have taken advantage of the court in the end!"

"Boss Hu's words are bad! After all, before this fundraising meeting, no one

knew that the Holy Spirit would reward those who participated in the

fundraising meeting so much! And in the end, you didn't take advantage of the

court, but Lantian County. The government is cheap, you should thank the

county government, thank you Lord Hou!

After our Lantian County became the fief of Lord Hou, the taxes collected by

the county government no longer need to be turned over to the court, and they

are not given to Lord Hou. Instead, they are all used for people's livelihood

construction! Take a look at the concrete road we are walking on now. There is

not even Chang'an City, but we have it in Lantian County!

I heard that Lantian County was about to lay electric wires and expand the

city. This time the county government followed the imperial court to implement

commercial tax concessions. I am afraid that the commercial tax received by

the county government will drop significantly in the future, and I don’t know

if it will affect it. To the next project construction in the city! "

A young man in a scribe's shirt stood in front of the crowd and said in a deep

voice.

This sounds like a scholar who speaks in an orderly and convincing manner!

"This little brother is right. The businessmen who participated in the

fundraising meeting in our county yesterday were blessed, but they took

advantage of the county government!"

"But if this little brother really said, wouldn't the county government have

the money to lay wires and expand the city? The old man is also expecting to

see Lantian County and Yanhuang Academy using electricity and lights this

year! "

"Yes, yes! I also count on electric lights in the city! It is said that this

thing is ten times brighter than candles and oil lamps!"

"Eh? Isn't this Yu Xiucai from Yujiazhuang? I heard that Yu Xiucai was

admitted to the Yanhuang Academy this time. He really has a promising future!"

After the crowd of onlookers listened to the scholar's analysis, it was a pity

at first, and then someone recognized the scholar and couldn't help but be

surprised.

That's right, this scholar is Yu Dejing from Yujiazhuang, that Yu Dejing who

was rescued by Li Zexuan!

Although this guy was admitted to Yanhuang Academy, his family was poor. He

heard people say that the food in Yanhuang Academy is quite expensive. As for

the scholarship, he is not confident that he can get it. After all, Yanhuang

Academy is a "master like a cloud." Besides, even if he can get the

scholarship, he has to eat before he gets the scholarship! So before school

started, Yu Dejing worked in the city every day to "earn living expenses"!

"Oh! It turned out to be a student from Yanhuang Academy!"

The crowd of onlookers looked at Yu Dejing's eyes suddenly with a trace of

respect.

Being watched by so many people, Yu Dejing was a little embarrassed. He was

about to leave, but he caught a glimpse of another notice next to him. He

suddenly changed his expression and said in surprise: "It seems that we don't

have to worry that the county government will run out of money next time.

Wires have been laid and the city has been expanded. Look! There is also a

recruitment notice issued by the county government!"

Everyone followed the prestige, and as expected, there were four large

characters on the notice next to it: "Notice of Recruitment." Upon closer

inspection, it turned out that the Lantian County Office was recruiting a

large number of civilians and planned to remove the wires within three months.

Lay to Lantian County! Moreover, the wages paid by the county government to

the civil servants are not low. Ordinary civil servants pay three cents a day,

and skilled craftsmen can earn from 500 cents a month to the usual wages!

Those people who were worried about not having access to electricity and

lights at the end of the year couldn’t help being surprised at this time: "Ah!

Yu Xiucai, what's the matter? Isn’t it that the county government will be

short of money after the tax reduction? What about the county government? Are

you still recruiting people in large numbers?"

"Yes! The notice says that the county government is going to lay the electric

wires in the city within three months. Where did the wages and the money to

make the wires come from?"

Facing these problems~www.mtlnovel.com~Yu Dejing was speechless for a while.

In fact, he himself was a little confused at this time, because according to

common sense, Lantian County was able to quickly replace the bluestone road in

the city with a cement road before. It is the huge business tax levied by the

county government and the governance philosophy of “take it from the people

and use it for the people”. Now the county government has decided to reduce or

exempt business tax from the business people participating in the fundraising

conference, which will inevitably affect the next few years of this year.

Months of taxation will affect the progress of the project behind the county

seat!

This is all logical!

But right now, the Lantian county government did not play cards according to

common sense at all. This confused Yu Dejing, and he couldn't help asking

himself: Where did the Lantian county government get the money?

"...This...I don't know where the county government got the money from!"

After a long while, Yu Dejing said with some embarrassment.

The crowd around the audience suddenly made a good laugh.

"Hahaha! Our county magistrate is so capable, but Yu Xiucai is stumped!"

"Hey! Let me tell you where the money comes from, as long as our county town

can use electricity as soon as possible!"

"Yes, that's right! Now those merchants who donated money have benefited from

the benefits, and they will not affect the next construction in the city. It

can be said that everyone is happy!"

These people don't know that they are all happy now, but they are both won by

Li Zexuan and He County Order. In particular, the county magistrate He had

tossed back and forth between Chang'an and Lantian counties this morning, and

finally completed the "loan" procedures for the county government before noon.

It was also after all the money in Yanhuang Bank was in place, did He County

have the confidence to issue these two notices to the people in the city.
