Chapter 104: Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity
"Tell me, will Zhu Biao use the things I arranged for him before?"
Zhuo Qun, who was lying on the bed with his arms around Tang Xiaoxiao, gasped and asked.
"How do I know what you have arranged?"
Tang Xiaoxiao lay in Zhuo Qun's arms, stroking his sweat-wet hair with his hands, and said lazily.
There is this sweet smell in the air.
This is the scent of androdiene and estradiol, the scent of primitive wildness.
"It's nothing. I just said before that Daming's problem is ultimately a lack of money, so I sent him some news. One is Feng Qiuhuang, the other is Chen Ping's fifth marriage. The other is Bald Eagle.
The IRS books record how the IRS is established, how it operates, and what its scale is. Oh, by the way, there is also a complete progressive tax calculation table."
Zhuo Qun counted on his fingers.
"Are you a devil? I bet Zhu Biao will form a Ming Dynasty IRS."
Tang Xiaoxiao smiled happily. This was so funny. It was so fun to engage in armed tax evasion in Ming Dynasty.
"Well, that's what I think. The only question is, who are the backbones of Ming Dynasty's IRS?"
Zhuo Qun stroked Tang Xiaoxiao's hair and said.
In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Biao had already told his younger brothers about marrying a merchant and collecting dowry.
His younger brothers also raised objections. This kind of thing is of both benefit and disadvantage, because the nobles do not pay taxes, and the royal family members do not have to pay taxes.
Then a few people chattered, saying that Zhu Yuanzhang's tax laws were a mess, and they also said that Zhu Yuanzhang treated those students too favorably, and also gave them tax exemptions, etc., and talked a lot.
Zhu Biao also let them comment there. Anyway, no one here dared to spread these things.
And these are all facts.
After the three of them said they were tired, Zhu Biao also finished drinking the tea. He also poured the tea for the three of them. It was already warm and cool when it was placed on the table. You could drink it directly after you picked it up.
"Look at this thing."
Zhu Biao gave the three of them an introduction to the IRS and information on the progressive tax system. He also put tea in front of them and asked them to drink it if they were thirsty.
After getting these books, the three of them just looked through them nonchalantly at first. After a while, the only sounds in the palace were the sound of flipping books and drinking tea. Other than that, there were only the footsteps of soldiers patrolling outside the palace gate.
The three of them were fascinated by what they saw. This tax collection method and tax system calculation were really amazing. If the Ming Dynasty collected taxes in this way, at least it would be worth more than ten million taels of silver every year. The three of them also had some questions, why
We want them to see this. Does this have anything to do with Zhu Biao's desire to marry a businesswoman to collect money?
The three of them were all thinking about this problem, and they didn't even notice that the tea in their hands was spilled.
"Brother, do you want to do it according to this? This may be a bit troublesome. Who should the tax army be handed over? Inner court, outer court, Jin Yiwei or the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. This is a big problem. I haven't arranged a meeting yet.
There will be trouble."
Zhu Biao also nodded. He had no intention of letting any party control Ming's IRS alone. People's hearts are terrible and cannot withstand testing. If such a large force is given to any party alone, something will happen. This is related to
Matters of life and death in the Ming Dynasty.
So he planned to divide it into at least three parts so that they could supervise each other. He would put up this shelf first and talk about the rest later.
As for the personnel, those who collect taxes, he plans to let the main world train them. It is best if they all learn how to collect taxes and how to calculate tax rates.
He mentioned this idea to the three of them. The three of them were completely confused. They had never thought of being trained by people from the main world. They all thought that a group of people would be recruited from the civil servants of the court to train this person.
The shelf should be put up first. As for what will happen in the future, let's talk about it later. They didn't think about it in detail.
"But brother, does this have anything to do with what you said about marrying a businesswoman?"
After hearing this, Zhu Xi asked if there was some incompatibility between the two sides.
"If it matters, I plan to remove the preferential treatment for living members and nobles, and let them join the tax payment system. Our royal family and officials will also join in, so that Ming Dynasty will at least be equal in tax collection and death.
No one can escape!"
Zhu Biao took the Bald Eagle's saying that only death and taxes are inevitable and applied it to the Ming Dynasty.
This made his three younger brothers a little uncomfortable. Why should the royal family also pay taxes?
The Ming Dynasty belongs to us, why should we pay taxes?
They said this carefully, they couldn't be careless, because they could see that Zhu Biao meant what he said.
"Only when we take the lead in paying taxes can we stand on the commanding heights of morality and deal with those civil servants, nobles and those students. You must know that people do not suffer from scarcity but from inequality."
Zhu Biao took out an Analects of Confucius and said: "Confucius pointed out in Chapter 16: "Those who have a country and a family do not worry about being few but about inequality; they do not worry about poverty but about insecurity. There is no poverty in everyone, and harmony
If you have no widows, you will be safe and secure. If you are like this, if people from afar are dissatisfied, then cultivate your virtues and come here. Once you come, you will be safe."
Zhu Biao's words made the three of them deep in thought. There is nothing wrong with it. The country does not suffer from poverty but from inequality. Since it suffers from inequality, then starting from the royal family takes the lead in paying taxes. Isn't this some kind of equality?
In addition to the integrity-supporting silver system introduced by Zhu Biao before, this means that civil servants are also high-income people and become members of the paying party. Once the civil servants disagree, they have offended the royal family, and they can even be directly said to have violated the law.
Those who follow the teachings of Confucius are not Confucian, or in other words, they have low morals and lack of knowledge and cannot be officials, so they can do whatever they want.
Moreover, these civil servants who paid taxes can also be used to keep an eye on those workers and businessmen. After all, they are not worried about scarcity but inequality.
Civil servants have paid taxes, so do the civil servants and students in the reserve force also have to pay taxes?
The students have paid the tax, but the businessmen will also have to pay the tax. When the time comes, the tax list will be made clear to the world.
Let everyone know their respective payment limits.
In this way, as long as one of them plays tricks, the others will find out, and then that person will be dead.
Worrying not about scarcity but about inequality is the same everywhere, and it is the same when it comes to paying taxes. Why do we pay taxes? You are playing tricks. What does this mean? Are you looking down on us or bullying us?
