Chapter XXXIV Preparation for Tax Collection


At this time, Mrs.

Ke immediately stood next to her and said, "What the emperor said makes sense.

I only gave birth when I was eighteen years old.

My son is in good health.

He eats more and grows stronger.

He often competes with others."

It’s a win.”

Zhu Youxiao also said: "Women among the people give birth too early, and it is often the case that both mother and child become ill or even die.

It is for this reason that I did this.

The queen and my beloved concubine must understand now."

The three beauties understood that the emperor did this for their own good and did not dislike them.

They were relieved at first, then moved, and then blamed themselves.

The emperor could think of them in this way, and sometimes the emperor wanted to do something new.

Tricks, I actually refused to cooperate on the grounds of shyness, it was really inappropriate, it was so inappropriate.

So after the misunderstanding was resolved, Zhu Youxiao unlocked more postures in the harem, which was a blessing in disguise.

That day Wei Zhongxian came to report that the investigation about Li Sancai mentioned last time was almost complete.

Zhu Youxiao said: "Just tell me directly, I won't read it."

Although Wei Zhongxian didn't know much about literacy, he was very eloquent, so Zhu Youxiao wanted him to speak directly.

Anyway, he said it and let others write it.

It would be better to speak directly, which might be closer to the truth.

"Yes, I found out that the reason why Yang Lian went to Wang Dewan was because there were different views on Li Sancai in the Donglin Party.

Donglin big guys like Liu Yishui, Ye Xianggao, Han Xu, and Zhou Jiamo all It’s a branch Those who support Li Sancai, but Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Zhao Nanxing, Gong Nai, and Huang Zunsu oppose Li Sancai.

The reason for the fight between the two factions is that Li Sancai is too rich.

It is estimated that Li Sancai's family wealth can reach tens of millions of taels. silver" "Stop, you are not mistaken, it is tens of millions of taels of silver."

Zhu Youxiao focused on the word silver.

A while ago, Li Ruhua, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, said that there was not much money in the treasury, and he asked the emperor to reward him with it.

Pay attention sometimes.

"My slave is not mistaken.

There are old people in the East Factory who specialize in estimating property.

They estimated it based on Li Sancai's daily expenses, houses, shops, and fields.

Your Majesty knows that your slave is ignorant and doesn't know how they calculate.

But your slave asked them to do so."

Proofreading carefully, they said there should indeed be this many.”

Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Where did he get so much money?

Why did he embezzle so much money?"

"Your Majesty, Li Sancai is indeed rich.

He has rare foods such as bear paws and orangutan lips that are rarely seen in daily life.

They are just like carrots and cabbage.

However, it is said that this money does not come from corruption, but from his normal business income. " "How can you make so much money by doing normal business?

You are bragging again."

"This is indeed the case.

Li Sancai is the chief businessman of Tongzhou.

He has a large number of merchants affiliated to his name.

Tongzhou is an important stop for water transportation.

When Li Sancai was the governor of water transportation, he kept clamoring to reduce water transportation taxes and the court should not interfere with the people.

They strive for profit, and even the normal water transportation tax is often not collected, so if you don’t make a fortune, you will be a ghost."

"No wonder they opposed the collection of mining taxes.

It turns out that the root is here.

If you don't compete with the people for profits, you don't compete with the officials.

You continue to investigate.

I don't believe that Li Sancai's hands and feet were clean when he was the governor of water transportation.

He just It should be difficult to make so much money in a normal business.

Not only Li Sancai, but other officials who have money should also check carefully for me.

I don't believe I can't cure you."

After Wei Zhongxian left, he summoned Xu Guangqi and showed him Li Sancai's materials first.

After reading it, Xu Guangqi said: "It seems that there are still sensible people among the people of Donglin."

Zhu Youxiao knew that he was speaking for Yang Lian, so he snorted coldly and said: "What do you understand?

It's not that party members are united against dissidents.

If he really understands, he should stand up and expose it.

He might as well come forward to oppose it.

It would be better for him to take a leave of absence."

When he came back, he stood there without saying a word.

He had never been so quiet when he scolded Li Xuanshi. " "Your Majesty, once you join the party, you will be a member of the party for life.

If Yang Lian comes out to expose him, everyone in the world will despise him, but at least he has a clear conscience and knows that he cannot let Li Sancai come to power.

Moreover, he told Wang Dewan, Doesn’t that mean he is against it?”

"Okay, okay, I understand what sir means.

In fact, I also know that Yang Lian is an outspoken person.

Although he often disagrees with me, it's just from different perspectives.

I have other things to do with you today. " Xu Guangqi knelt down and said, "I would like to congratulate the world.

Your Majesty is so reasonable and reasonable.

It is really a blessing to our Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and accepted this flattery.

He also knew that Xu Guangqi was speaking not only for Yang Lian, but also for all the ministers in the DPRK.

He hoped that he would not be too paranoid when looking at the problem, and would put himself in other people's shoes and think about whether they also made sense. , he helped Xu Guangqi up and said: "Mr.

Xu, I understand.

If I do something wrong in the future, I hope you can remind me often."

Xu Guangqi was his first daily lecturer, and it was natural for him to call him sir.

Xu Guangqi said: "Of course there will be no mistakes in the emperor's behavior, but the emperor is in a high position and has many affairs.

If there are things that cannot be taken into account, the humble ministers should be noisy.

I am afraid that it will disturb the emperor's peace.

That would be a big sin." " "The gentleman was joking.

Let's get down to business.

I told you about the mining tax before.

I want to change the name of the mining tax and have it collected by the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Do you think it is feasible, sir?

"The Ministry of Household Affairs has been complaining about the lack of money and the collection of commercial taxes.

Without delay.

"What name does Your Majesty want to change the mining tax to?"

"Sir, what do you think of the name Commercial Tax?"

"The name is straightforward, so it should be possible.

However, whether or not commercial tax can be collected must be discussed by the ministers at the court meeting.

I'm afraid it won't be easy to pass."

"Yes, sir, I asked you to prepare the tax collection strategy last time.

How are you doing now?"

"It's basically written.

Do you want Weichen to get it now?"

"No, you can decide the professional stuff yourself.

If you want me to work in the Ministry of Household Affairs, what do you think?"

"I know a little bit about household matters.

If your Majesty needs it, I dare not resign."

"Well, let's wait for a few days.

Sir, you can communicate with other people first to see how to pass the business tax plan at the Grand Council."

After Xu Guangqi left, Zhu Youxiao called Fang Congzhe and proposed to re-collect the mining tax.

Fang Congzhe immediately objected.

After the emperor explained the matter clearly, Fang Congzhe said: "When the emperor said this, I understood in my heart. , Collecting commercial taxes is beneficial to the country, but some people have always opposed the collection of commercial taxes.

If it is discussed by the ministers, it will not be easy to pass. " "If I explain this matter clearly, will everyone agree to collect commercial tax?"
