He quickly changed the topic: "By the way, why are there so many new things in the city?"
"Panlong City has reduced rent and taxes again. During non-war periods, as well as normal periods like now, the land tax and grain tax in the wasteland are reduced and reduced in stages, and the commercial tax is halved. The burden on everyone is reduced a lot, and the earned income
The more money you have, the safer your pocket will be.”
When the tax burden is reduced, everyone will have more money in their hands and dare to spend it, and the market will naturally prosper.
He Lingchuan was surprised: "Reduced again?"
When he first entered the world of Panlong, the taxes in Panlong City were very heavy because there were wars every day. Although the army and the people were united, everyone lived in poverty and the material conditions were not ideal.
Unexpectedly, just a few years later, people's pockets have become bulging.
"In the past two years, there have been frequent outbreaks of food, and the price of food has dropped sharply. Commander Zhong said that now there is abundant food in Panlong Wasteland and Maohe Plain, and it can even be sold abroad. With the development of commerce and trade, tariffs and municipal taxes have increased significantly.
It can already cover the financial needs and still have a surplus. Therefore, he hopes that people will not be so tight on money and that everyone can live a good life in peace and contentment." Sun Fuling said with a smile, "As soon as this announcement came out, firecrackers were set off all over the city."
"That's it." He Lingchuan looked moved.
Panlongcheng is so active in benefiting the people, which shows that Zhong Shengguang has not forgotten his original intention and still cares about the well-being of the people.
Unlike many high-ranking officials who have gradually lost their way through years of conquests and intrigues, they have become accustomed to asking the people to sacrifice their lives, and no longer remember to put the people first.
In governing the people with benevolence and righteousness, He Lingchuan seemed to have glimpsed the extremely powerful essence of Panlong City's energy.
But after he was moved, he immediately began to figure out the meaning of it.
Panlong City has been under construction for less than two years. Its territory and army are expanding rapidly, and financial and military expenditures have increased significantly. From the perspective of policymakers, it is not yet time for "little growth".
What matters in war is money and logistics. Zhong Shengguang, who has been living without rice all year round, should know this best. Why did Panlong City not take advantage of the best times to hoard money and food, but chose to hide wealth among the people?
Commander Zhong kept his truest thoughts deep in his heart. Of course He Lingchuan could not know everything. But he knew very well the final outcome of Panlong City in history, so he had a guess:
Could it be out of guilt?
He Lingchuan immediately thought of another person:
Cheap Daddy He Chunhua.
