admire.

I really admire it.

Who would have thought that the craftsman who was despised and disdained in the past has now become a hot and scarce person!

However, the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu began to vigorously cultivate technical craftsmen three years ago, and raised their status and treatment, which attracted the respect and love of craftsmen all over the world.

Now, with the central government abolishing the national policy of maritime ban, Yang Shiqi can fully foresee that in the future, craftsmen in the world will be competed by various countries, especially those who are proficient in shipbuilding and shipmaking techniques. They will become talents that all countries cherish and value!

And all these changes are due to the Han King Zhu Gaoxu!

Without this Han prince, there would be no such thing as the kings being released!

Without this Han prince, the Ming Dynasty would never have opened up the sea, at least the Yongle Dynasty would never have!

Without this Han prince, the craftsmen in the world would still live a miserable life, just like beggars, and they suffered contempt and bullying!

In the past three years, all the earth-shaking changes have been caused by the King of Han in front of you!

And the changes in himself, Yang Rong, Yang Pu and others were also because of this Han prince?

When Yang Shiqi thought of this, his eyes at Zhu Gaoxu were softer, filled with an inexplicable feeling.

"Your Highness, there is another thing, please give me advice."

"It's the Nanyang Customs business?" Zhu Gaoxu looked at Yang Shiqi with a faint smile, guessing what the Nanyang Prime Minister wanted to say.

"The seven countries in the South China Sea have unique geographical advantages. Take the Strait of Malacca for example, which is the narrow strait between the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra."

Yang Shiqi and Wang Jing both saw the world map drawn by the Han King Zhu Gaoxu, so the two were not unfamiliar with the geographical words mentioned by the Han King.

At this moment, when His Highness the King of Han mentioned this, the whole picture of the Strait of Malacca appeared in Yang Shiqi's mind.

"The Malacca Strait connects the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, which we often call the East China Sea and the West, and is also a major water transportation route for Asia and Oceania!"

"This is the energy channel for East Asia and the maritime trade channel between East Asia and Europe, Africa and the Middle East countries, and is known as the 'maritime crossroad'!"

"In other words, if Westerners want to go to the East by water, they must pass through the Strait of Malacca. Husky, do you understand the importance of this place?"

Yang Shiqi nodded repeatedly when he heard this. He still knew these basic knowledge.

The problem is that knowing how to build and develop, this is the most important question.

"What you have to do next is to set up customs at ports along the Strait of Malacca to collect customs duties. For example, ship taxation is based on the length of the ship, and a public wooden ruler is set up to put it in the water; merchant ship taxation is to verify the quantity and value of the goods on the ship, etc...."

"If it is too difficult to operate and it really doesn't work, you can also follow the previous Song Dynasty's pounce system, which is the tax-packing system. The government determines the amount to be levied on a certain taxable object, and then the merchant pays a certain amount of deposit and then contracts it, so that they can run the port customs themselves. The government only needs to impose tariffs on them at the expiration date..."

Yang Shiqi: "???"

Pick and buy?

Tax-covering system?

It's interesting!

Yang Shiqi recalled carefully that the former Song Dynasty was extremely prosperous and relied on the shocking interests of maritime trade to pay hundreds of years of tribute to the foreign barbarians. Therefore, the former Song Dynasty court attached great importance to tax collection and management in the process of commodity circulation.

At that time, it was stipulated that all small markets with tax revenues of less than 1,000 yuan would be implemented in a "tax-inclusive system", which was called "buying pum", that is, the government calculated the total annual tax receivable of the market, and asked local big merchants to pay for the contract, and then the big merchants would collect their income from the vendors, and the income profit and loss were the tax-inclusive person himself.

This method can ensure the stability of the imperial tax revenue and avoid the troubles caused by management. It is a good reference system for the seven countries in Southeast Asia.

"In addition, if a commercial circle is set up at the customs port, if Westerners want to trade in our Ming Dynasty, they can only invest in local foreign merchant houses or rent houses, or rent private houses, and then all shops, casinos, brothels, etc. are arranged. All these places are placed in the commercial circle to ensure that Westerners can have fun after coming and leave without any money..."

Yang Shiqi: "!!!"

hiss!

So cruel!

His Highness the King of Han is worthy of being "Zhu Papi"!

After these fucking Westerners came to the casino brothel, wouldn’t they have to stuff their lives into it?

But you really don’t know that His Highness the King of Han’s method is really fucking!

Businessmen are already busy all year round. Whether they are Chinese or Western businessmen, can’t they play on the spot to relieve fatigue?

Haha, once they enter this business circle, they want to go out without spending money, that's impossible!

"Get more local products in the Ming Dynasty, such as silk, tea, and porcelain, and the price will increase by hundreds or thousands of times first. Anyway, Westerners' money is also money, so it's not too shabby to make money!"

"As long as you control the business circle, it will be a gold-selling cave, a mountain of gold and silver. If you have one such business circle in every port, it will be a golden rooster that can lay golden eggs. What else can you worry about not being able to develop it?"

When Yang Shiqi heard these words, his eyes suddenly became cold and he was so excited that he stood up.

"His Royal Highness Han is really a business genius, Shi Qi was so impressed..."

"Stop, Husky, why are you excited? The things in Nanyang will have nothing to do with you in the future!"

Zhu Gaoxu laughed and scolded with anger, "What? Are you planning to go back and be the 'South Oceanic Minister'?"

Hearing this, Yang Shiqi was stunned and stood there.

He started from scratch in Nanyang and made such a foundation, and was known as the "Southeast Prime Minister"!

If Yang Shiqi has no feelings for Nanyang, it is absolutely impossible.

After all, it is precisely because of the past three years of experience in Southeast Asia that Yang Shiqi has washed away all his hair and has grown up completely.

But, do you still have to go back?

"Don't worry, you can't go back."

"The Ming Dynasty cannot have a prime minister. The seven countries in the South China Sea are vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, and they cannot have a prime minister!"

"You don't even think about it. With the title of "South Ocean Prime Minister", what will the old man think of you?"

"Why do you really want to learn from Su Qin and join forces with the seven countries in the South China Sea to fight against the central court? The old man has stripped you of all his skin!"

When Yang Shiqi heard these words, his expression suddenly became unnatural.

If he was according to His Highness the King of Han, he really couldn't go back to Nanyang and could not go back.

The seven countries in the South China Sea have unique advantages in time and place. Compared with the five countries in the East China Sea, the seven countries in the South China Sea undoubtedly pose greater threat to the central court!

The Emperor of Ming Dynasty and Emperor Yongle will not allow a top minister to appear in Southeast Asia!

If so, then hand it over to the central court!

Ironically, with the confirmation of abolishing the national policy of maritime ban, the relationship between the central court and overseas vassal states has not become close, but has become increasingly sensitive and subtle!

Maybe, this is reality!

Yang Shiqi sighed, his face full of vicissitudes of life.

Zhu Gaoxu got up and patted his shoulder, Zhan Yan smiled and said, "Husky, your future is in the central court."
Chapter completed!
