Chapter 1527 Isn’t it too much to impose a little tax?
On the second day of the scientific research competition, the development of vitamin tablets had just begun, but the situation in the Tiandao world became worse and worse.
More trialists fell into the arms of Yuandian, and a chain reaction of ecological destruction also occurred. Countless animals died one after another due to lack of food, habitat and other reasons. At the same time, after plants were wiped out on a large scale, the land dried up and the wild became depleted.
It's a thousand miles of bones.
A mass extinction sweeping the entire world of heaven begins.
Insightful people at the World Channel have predicted that this situation will continue until at least the early spring of next year. By then, things will stabilize and recover, and only then will it be possible to gradually restore the biodiversity of the Tiandao world.
At noon that day, cheers erupted in the research room of Uzhicheng Hospital.
"Success! Master, we have completed our research mission!"
"Master is so awesome, I want to give you a hug!"
More than a dozen beast girls came over, and more than forty maids all had smiles on their faces.ωωw..net
Luo Yu said with a smile: "Okay, everyone has worked hard. Let's take a two-hour break. It's time to eat and sleep. Let's disband!"
"Ouch!"
The girls stretched themselves and left, and for a while, only Luo Yu, Ling'er and Shuang'er were left in the entire research room.
Shuang'er stepped forward and bowed slightly, saying: "Master, the little maid's house cannot accommodate so many sisters, and a palace needs to be arranged for the new sisters."
"That's a problem."
Luo Yu pondered for a moment and said: "For now, let's select two of the two-story princess palaces as temporary residences for the maids. Then I will expand the palace, open up a separate floor, and convert it into a Tie Tie maid's home."
"Thank you, Master. It is everyone's blessing to be able to follow you."
"Shuang'er doesn't need to be polite."
Luo Yu smiled slightly and looked at the basic research platform. The research progress bar displayed on the light screen was full, but in the middle of the research platform, the groove was shining with a faint light.
[Tip: You need to place a self-healing sky tree or wood attribute props of the same level to completely unlock the goddess's drug research platform]
"Self-healing Tianmu?"
Luo Yu looked at the groove and asked: "Ling'er, in our dream sea of flowers, are there any king-level plants among those rare plants?"
"Ling'er?"
Turning around to look, Ling'er lowered her head, seeming to be thinking about something.
Luo Yu said softly: "Baby, what are you thinking about?"
"Ah, my daughter has lost her temper."
There was a trace of worry on Ling'er's face, and she said: "Father, so many maids and sisters are treated by the royal family. Each person is worth 300,000 yuan a month. With such a huge burden, the court may not be able to bear it..."
Luo Yu nodded when he heard this. Money was a big deal. He didn't care about king-level wood attribute materials at this moment, and hurriedly opened the financial list.
Currently, there are a total of sixty beast girls and maids, each with a monthly salary of 300,000 yuan. After one month, the salary that the court needs to pay to the royal family is 18 million yuan.
The current monthly tax revenue of the entire kingdom is only 24 million. If we add some enterprises run by the court, etc., and deduct the welfare wages of civil servants, etc., the monthly revenue of the national treasury should be 35 million.
The salary ratio of the royal family accounts for half of the entire court's income. Even Luo Yu felt it was excessive when he saw it.
vampire?
A word popped up in his mind, and he quickly shook his head and said to himself: "Without a royal family, how can a kingdom come from? You can't count it like this."
"Hmm... Now the imperial court earns 35 million per month. Let me take a look at the flow of Galaxy Group."
Swipe the page and go to Galaxy Group's monthly financial report page.
The financial report is very long, and the list of various entries and exits is very detailed, all of which are stamped with Xiao Jin's official seal.
At this glance, he was slightly startled.
The Galaxy Group controlled by the royal family, including its banks, commercial streets, resort islands and Shuang'er's underground industry, has a monthly net profit of 89 million in normal months.
Luo Yu frowned slightly and said: "Baby, you have reminded me that the income of our royal family is only a little more than double that of the national treasury. This money cannot be withdrawn from the treasury."
"Let's use our brains together and think of other ways."
Shuang'er brought two cups of coffee, handed them to Luo Yu and Ling'er, and said, "Master, I suggest increasing taxes."
"The current property tax is only 1.2%. The tax rate can be increased to 2.2% per year. In this way, the court's income will skyrocket, and it will be able to afford the sisters' wages."
Luo Yu took a sip of coffee, thought for a while, shook his head slightly and said: "No, the property tax will only be levied for more than a year. Even if it is to be increased, it cannot be so fast. If the order is changed overnight, it will damage the majesty of the imperial court and national laws."
"But this idea is correct."
"Let's do this. From now on, the salary of the royal family will not be counted in the national treasury. It will not be easy for everyone."
Luo Yu looked at the Qilin Beast Mother and said: "Ling'er, please pass on the order. Two new taxes will be added from next month. One is the business protection tax for all merchants. The tax point is set at 1% of their annual interest rate."
"The second new tax is targeted at all people across the country and is designated as the goddess buff asylum tax."
"The buff tax for each goddess is 0.1%. Currently, the two goddesses each receive 0.2% of their income. Isn't this excessive?"
"These two taxes are collected by the court and handed over to the bank. From now on, they will be the wages of our royal family."
When Ling'er heard this, her beautiful eyes widened, she opened her mouth and said: "Father, if these two taxes are levied, they will suck blood from the people at least every month. No, it will collect 25 million, and it will keep increasing."
…”
"The common people won't object to the low tax rate, but I'm afraid that the businessmen and nobles will privately say that we are competing with the people for profit and taking their cake..."
Luo Yu's face turned red when he heard this, and he immediately denied it, saying: "What, why are you competing with the people for profit? We, a big family, work so hard and don't need to be paid."
"Those hateful exploiters, whoever dares to gossip behind their backs will be sent to the Ice and Snow Kingdom to mine!"
"Okay, this is settled, let's implement it next month."
"yes!"
Ling'er took out a small notebook and quickly jotted it down.
After successfully solving the problem of the royal family's salary crisis, Luo Yu put things like taxes behind him, walked to the groove of the research platform, and said: "Ling'er, are there any king-level wood-type props in the treasure house?"
"No, Yuanyuan and Feiya love to collect wood props. It seems they got a leaf before and it was eaten by them?"
Linger was not sure and looked at Shuang'er.
Shuang'er chuckled and nodded, and said: "To be precise, it was His Highness Tu Fuyuan, His Highness Fei Ya and the guest, His Highness Qing Ya, who ate together. They improved their realm a bit."
Luo Yu said with a smile: "It's so gratifying that Xiaoduo didn't eat this kind of thing first."
