... something like the economy needs time to be verified, and it cannot be rushed. Whether it is effective or not,
You won't know until you implement it!" Lu Heng was holding a tea cup in one hand and a writing brush in the other hand. On the paper spread out, he wrote a plan for the Miao family's special economic development. Then he turned around and looked at Bai Bai beside him.
Suyan said.
"Of course, before an economic policy is implemented, it must go through many deductions and demonstrations. Only in this way can losses be minimized!"
After Lu Heng took a sip of tea, he pointed at the argumentative method that took a lot of time to write down in the first half of the plan, and said with a smile.
"The method of making decisions by patting your head on your head won't work!" Lu Heng smiled, raised his finger and pointed at his head, and said to Zhang Wenshan beside him.
The three of them have been discussing in this private room for a long time. After many considerations and synthesis, Lu Heng formulated this strategy to stimulate local economic development based on the economic theories of later generations.
Lu Heng's plan, to put it simply, is very simple. To borrow the words of a certain big shot from later generations, it is to integrate resources and centrally supply some talented and capable people so that they can get rich first.
Then, after these people become rich, they will inevitably need more labor to maintain and expand their wealth. In this case, it will naturally promote the start of the Miao family's basic economy. By then, everyone will have a job. Everyone's life will be
It will be better. At least it won't be as poverty-stricken as it is now.
"But!" Zhang Wenshan on the side listened quietly to Lu Heng's explanation. After he read the set of criminal cases many times, he frowned and said: "...If this happens, will the poor become poorer and poorer?
, the rich are getting richer. By then, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!" After hearing this, Lu Heng smiled and put down the brush. Bai Suyan beside him smiled faintly, picked up the teapot with understanding, and gave it to Lu
Heng added a new cup of tea.
Lu Heng picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said calmly: "Wenshan, your worries are reasonable. However, not only you and me, but even the saints in this world will find it difficult to solve this problem!"
Seeing that Zhang Wenshan was still frowning and thinking, Lu Heng was not in a hurry and just smiled.
He raised his hand, pointed at his head, and said with a smile: "Oh, it's human nature! It's just greed!" Seeing Zhang Wenshan smiled bitterly and nodded, which was regarded as acquiescing to his statement. Lu Heng picked up the brush and wrote
Draw a pie chart on the paper. Then mark about 80% of the area.
"In a certain period of time, the value of wealth in the world is fixed. However, due to the existence of classes and the flaws of the distribution system, 80% of the value of wealth is destined to be owned by a few people.
Ha, this is also what people call the 28-year-old theory!"
Lu Heng took a brush and circled 80% of the area, wrote a few words on it, and said to Zhang Wenshan with a smile.
"Take today's Great Zhou Dynasty as an example. More than 80% of the wealth is controlled by the royal family and its vassals.
Of course, you may want to say that some people are also wealthy. For example, businessmen. But, Brother Wenshan, have you ever thought about it. If one day, the emperor directly asks a businessman to donate all his family property, what can this businessman do?
"
Lu Heng looked at Zhang Wenshan, who was contemplating the pie chart on the paper. After smiling, he picked up the tea cup and blew on the hot air, and said lightly: "I think that businessman, in addition to obeying the emperor's orders,
There is no other way. Oh, of course, unless the businessman is impatient!" "Say this, it actually proves a truth. That is, within the scope of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the royal family has no control over all the things of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He has absolute control over the resources of the Great Zhou Dynasty, including tens of thousands of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty! In other words, in fact, all the wealth of the Great Zhou Dynasty belongs to the royal family alone! Haha, at least on the surface.
Such"…
Zhang Wenshan raised his head after listening to Lu Heng's words, and looked at the scholar in front of him who was talking and laughing, and saw that he was talking about these things with a calm and carefree look. He felt extremely uneasy. Although
I was a little surprised that Yongzheng's attitude towards the royal family did not seem to be that respectful. However, the more shock came from Yongzheng's profound insights and broad vision on these matters.
Seeing Zhang Wenshan's eyes flashing with a vague understanding, Lu Heng didn't expect him to understand it in an instant. At this time, he was thrusting economic theories at him. He must have given time and his talent to understand.
understandable.
"Today's Great Zhou Dynasty has been built up by two generations of emperors. It is already considered a prosperous age. On the surface, there is also wealth hidden in the dark, which is immeasurable!" Lu Heng held the teacup, took a sip, smashed it, and spoke slightly.
Said with a smile.
"Yongzheng, you mean to take 20% of your Majesty's money and spread it among the people.
Let capable private businessmen manage the two percent of the wealth?" Zhang Wenshan frowned and followed Lu Heng's thoughts with difficulty. After thinking about it, he pointed to the largest round pancake company on the pie chart and spoke.
asked.
"Oh, the ideal state is indeed like this. However, this is just an ideal." Lu Heng smiled, shook his head and said: "For the royal family, only by controlling everyone's wealth in their hearts can they
To ensure the stability of the rule, you take 20% from the royal family. Do you think the emperor will agree to it?" "Then Yongzheng is what you mean?" Zhang Wenshan became even more confused.
"It's very simple. Make use of the existing situation to make the pie bigger. Then, before the royal family can react, strike first!" Lu Heng smiled calmly, but what he said shocked everyone.
Wenshan was covered in cold sweat.
"Yong Zheng, be careful what you say!" Stealing things from the royal family, huh, only Yong Zheng can think of it. Zhang Wenshan glanced around and said in a low voice.
"Oh, of course. In fact, it is not a robbery. After all, this big Zhou belongs to the Wu family. No matter how big you make this cake, it is still a royal cake. No matter how good your cooking skills are,
He's just a cook!" Lu Heng picked up the tea cup, smiled, and saw that the nervousness on Zhang Wenshan's face had eased slightly, and continued: "Don't worry, after all, we are making this pie bigger for the sake of the great Zhou Dynasty.
The common people, haha, I am talking about a higher level, also to share the worries of the imperial court. I think with the courage and vision of the current emperor, he should be able to see it!"
"Then, how to make this pie bigger?" Beside her, Bai Suyan heard some tips.
She looked at Lu Heng with shining eyes and asked softly.
"Open source!" Lu Heng said two words very simply.
Seeing that both of them had blank looks on their faces, Lu Heng patted his forehead in embarrassment and said to himself, forgetting that he had said a lot of things today, so it's no wonder that these two people couldn't turn their heads.
He picked up the tea cup, took a sip, moistened his throat, and continued: "The so-called open source means opening up more channels for financial resources under the existing conditions. As for Yizhou now, open source
There are many ways, such as increasing taxes!" After Lu Heng said the word increase taxes, Zhang Wenshan and Bai Suyan's expressions changed.
"You, you're just going to help me like this?" Bai Suyan pouted her small mouth in grievance, her beautiful eyes full of resentment, staring at Lu Heng, her voice trembling with endearment as she softly scolded.
It’s no wonder that Bai Suyan reacted so strongly. Nowadays, the imperial court’s taxes are already very large, and the location of Miao Township is not good, the land is barren, and it is difficult for crops to grow. The life of Miao hometown relatives is quite miserable. If more taxes are added, it will not be a wound.
Withdraw salt?
Zhang Wenshan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Hey, I have also thought about this. But I am afraid it cannot be implemented! After all, the imperial court is currently fighting the Huns. The people of the Zhou Dynasty are already overwhelmed in order to support the national finances.
If we add more taxes, I'm afraid it will cause a civil uprising!"
"Who asked you to tax the common people?"
Lu Heng was drinking tea, and when he heard Zhang Wenshan's complaint, he immediately scolded him. He looked at him with a dumbfounded look, and cursed angrily with a smile.
"So, Yongzheng, what do you mean?" Zhang Wenshan was suddenly at a loss. In his impression, besides taxing the people, who else could he do it with?
"The source of this tax should not have been borne entirely by the people!" Lu Heng smiled, and what he said immediately made Bai Suyan next to him breathe a sigh of relief.
"Haha, to sum it up in one sentence, whoever has money will be taxed. For example, those dignitaries and landlords in the Great Zhou Dynasty! These people's income is much higher than that of ordinary people!" Lu Heng laughed.
, holding the teacup, walking through the rising fog, looking at Zhang Wenshan who seemed to have some understanding, smiled softly, and drew a circle on the names on the paper with the brush in his hand: "This tax,
Can we find a solution from these people?" "But, in what name?" Zhang Wenshan heard some clues, but overall it was still unclear. After thinking about it, although he felt that with these people
Taxation is indeed a good way, but it has no name. You can't just rob it directly. Moreover, these people are not kind! If you ask them to pay, will they obediently pay taxes?
"The name is much simpler!" Lu Heng smiled, put the brush on the inkstone, and said calmly: "What about personal income tax, business tax, stamp tax, value-added tax, local tax, national tax..."
No less than twenty names were set up, and Zhang Wenshan broke into a cold sweat as he watched.
Finally, Lu Heng suddenly seemed to remember something, picked up the brush, and added another title: "Well, if the conditions are right, there will be inheritance tax! It's like the grace order of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty. The difference is,
The grace order is just a means of distribution. The regret tax is taken out from one of them!"
…,
He was holding up the teacup tremblingly, trying to take a sip of tea to suppress the trembling in his heart. Suddenly he heard Lu Heng say the three words "inheritance tax". Zhang Wenshan couldn't help but spit out the tea in his mouth.
.
Uh, tax from the dead,!
Oh, only Yongzheng, a boy like this, can think of such a wicked method!
Seeing Zhang Wenshan lose his composure, Lu Heng smiled helplessly.
What is this? I haven’t mentioned it yet, property tax, fuel tax, road maintenance tax!@.
