[No pop-up novel website] Zhao Junchen returned to Zhao Mansion through the back door
Without him, the refugees gathering outside the Zhao Mansion were not only not driven away, but more and more of them gathered!
Judging from the number of refugees, there are hundreds of them. Almost all the refugees from various places who are now stranded in Beijing have gathered outside Zhao Mansion!
It seems that because Zhao Junchen saved Xi'er, the refugees' favor for Zhao Junchen has greatly increased, and they have been bewitched by thoughtful people, which makes them regard Zhao Junchen as their only hope for redressing their grievances. So what if Zhao Junchen is a member of the family? To drive away means not wanting to leave
…………
Returning to the Zhao Mansion from the back door, Zhao Junchen had just got out of the sedan chair and as soon as his feet landed on the ground, he frowned and said to Xu Qingyan: "That concierge, don't let him stay in the mansion from today on. Give him some money." , let him find his own way out."
Xu Qingyan nodded repeatedly, with a dissatisfied look on his face, and said: "The young master is right. The concierge in the mansion is so useless now that he can't even drive away some refugees. The concierge in the mansion usually welcomes and sends away refugees. A little skill will only make things worse, and it’s really time to replace someone.”
Zhao Junchen shook his head, said no more, and just walked towards the study room.
Xu Qingyan followed and asked: "Master, what should we do with those refugees? Keep driving them away? I'm not saying that these refugees are indeed difficult to deal with. They refuse to leave and are blocked outside our house. It's really an eyesore. !”
After Zhao Junchen hesitated for a moment, he said: "Let them go. The decision was made at court this morning. Your Majesty will strictly investigate the flaws in the preparations for the Southern Tour. Next, the Three Law Divisions will accept the cases without me making the decision for them. When the news comes, After word spread, they dispersed.”
Xu Qingyan was a little unwilling and said: "Just let them stay outside our house? How about I send someone to notify the Third Law Department and let them come and pick them up?"
Zhao Junchen didn't care and just said: "You can do whatever you want, but you can ask Qin Wei to urge Xiachang again and let them find out the reason why the refugees are gathering outside our house as soon as possible. I always feel that there is something hidden in this matter." , otherwise with my current reputation, how could those refugees regard me as their hope for justice?”
When Xu Qingyan nodded, Zhao Junchen had already arrived not far from the study room.
Looking up, she saw that Chu Jiayi had received the news that Zhao Junchen had returned home and was waiting outside the study.
…………
After arriving in the study, Zhao Junchen never left until evening. He even ate lunch in the study.
In the study room, Zhao Junchen spent the whole day checking the seal of the household egg vat persimmon ㄗ 5 Nao urgent vat Pong ring Han Wei?br >
Seeing that Zhao Junchen was so serious about preparing a report, it seemed extremely important. As a spy who had ulterior motives and infiltrated into Zhao's house, Chu Jiayi was naturally very concerned.
Therefore, while grinding the ink and laying out the paper for Zhao Junchen, Chu Jiayi would secretly take a look at the contents of the booklet from time to time.
However, Zhao Junchen's excerpt is not only rich in data but also complex in content. It involves a lot of professional content on household financial management and national taxation. Although Chu Jiayi is well-educated and smart, she only peeks at it occasionally, but she is completely I'm confused, I don't know what Zhao Junchen is writing about.
Although she wanted to ask, seeing Zhao Junchen's focused expression and being a newbie here, Chu Jiayi still held back and did not dare to ask.
Unknowingly, it was already approaching evening. Zhao Junchen finally finished writing this excerpt that he had been preparing for a whole day. It was more than ten pages long.
Like Chu Jiayi, Xu Qingyan had never seen Zhao Junchen spend so long preparing a brochure. When he saw it was finally over, he couldn't help but ask: "Master, what kind of brochure are you writing? It took so long Such a big effort?"
Zhao Junchen was stretching. After hearing Xu Qingyan's inquiry, he smiled meaningfully. He seemed to have a calm expression, but the words that came out of his mouth shocked both Xu Qingyan and Chu Jiayi.
"Naturally, we need to prepare more details for the discounts we will use to save our lives in the future."
"A fold to protect your life?" Xu Qingyan was shocked. He looked blankly at the fold in Zhao Junchen's hand and asked one after another: "Master, why are you preparing it? But what happened? What is written on this fold? It's actually Can it be used to save one’s life?”
Zhao Junchen shook his head and said softly: "It's not that anything happened. I prepared this brochure just to be prepared for a rainy day. As for the contents of the brochure..."
Having said this, Zhao Junchen handed the folder to Xu Qingyan and said, "Just take a look."
Xu Qingyan carefully took the folder and looked at it carefully, but his expression became more and more confused.
After a long time, Xu Qingyan returned the fold to Zhao Junchen and said with a bitter look on his face: "I don't understand."
Seeing Xu Qingyan's appearance, Zhao Junchen couldn't help laughing and said: "It's okay if you can't understand. If you can understand, you can work in the household department and share my worries."
After laughing, Zhao Junchen's expression gradually became serious, and he explained: "This is a package of the imperial court's commercial tax reform. If the contents of this package are followed, the imperial court's annual income will be increased by at least two to thirty million taels of silver! "
"Twenty to thirty million taels!? At least?!"
Hearing the numbers spit out from Zhao Junchen's mouth, not only Xu Qingyan was stunned, but Chu Jiayi was also stunned.
What exactly is the commercial tax reform? Can he nearly double the income of the imperial court out of thin air?
If it is true as Zhao Junchen said, this discount is priceless!
Seeing Xu Qingyan's appearance, Zhao Junchen hesitated for a moment and continued to explain: "Well, let me tell you. Nowadays, everyone knows that the imperial court is in financial distress, but why is it so embarrassed, but few people consider it? In my opinion, , it is because of the proliferation of private smuggling that our court has lost too much commercial tax. However, the fundamental reason why private smuggling is rampant is because the court's commercial tax collection is too chaotic.
Now in this big tomorrow, there are tax collection stations in counties, tax collection stations in prefectures, tax collection stations in prefectures, toll stations in provinces, tax collection stations with guarding eunuchs, and even everywhere. Royal estates all have private tax collection stations. In addition, there are countless temporary tax collection stations. There is no unified standard for tax collection at various tax collection stations. What items need to be taxed and how they should be levied are completely determined by Taxation officials make decisions at will
With so many tax stations and such confusing tax standards, both the people and the merchants are naturally suffering. Many goods worth only a hundred taels of silver are transported from the place of origin?a href='x16711484942'>Purpose h give a support to the fan and support the Japanese to expose the support and support the ship and the corridor to raise the banner and stir up the confusion! ?br >
Seeing that Xu Qingyan and Chu Jiayi were listening intently during the explanation, Zhao Junchen smiled and continued to explain: "With such rampant smuggling, our government's commercial tax loss was more than 20 to 30 million taels? Last year our government's commercial tax loss The total amount is only 350,000 taels of silver. But as far as I know, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is the only trade route in our country. The total value of the cotton cloth smuggled every year is no less than 700,000 taels of silver! If taxes are imposed on these smuggled cotton cloths, there will be Taxes of nearly one hundred thousand taels of silver!
You know, this is just a trade route like the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal! This is just cotton cloth among them! Even I can't say exactly how much the commercial tax of our government should be, but it must be an astronomical figure. Twenty to thirty million taels of silver is just the bottom line."
Chu Jiayi couldn't help but ask: "So, sir, do you plan to carry out commercial tax reform in the DPRK?"
Zhao Junchen shook his head and said: "I don't have this plan. It involves too many aspects, whether it is local officials of all sizes, smugglers all over the world, or people who receive a large amount of tribute every year." The central officials of Yinzi, including myself, are all the beneficiaries of the current tax chaos. How could I touch it so easily? I said, this is just a life-saving discount."
After a pause, Zhao Junchen said with emotion: "Everyone in the world says that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. I finally felt it today. Today in the morning, I just didn't do things according to His Majesty's wishes, and I almost caused His Majesty's anger. No one can tell what will happen to my hostility in the future, so I am prepared for a rainy day. If your Majesty intends to punish me in the future, I will present this information to Your Majesty, which will not only divert His Majesty's attention. , it is a great achievement. By then, even if I do something wrong, Your Majesty will not blame me."
Xu Qingyan suddenly understood, nodded repeatedly and said: "It turns out that this is a life-saving trick, young master is smart."
Zhao Junchen seemed to be very proud of himself. After smiling, he put the fold into the secret box and said, "However, you must remember that no one should know about this fold. Since it is a life-saving fold, it should be used as a last resort." The reason why I am valued by your majesty now is precisely because the money in the court is in embarrassment. Only with my financial management skills can the government's finances continue to operate, so your majesty cannot do without me.
And if others find out about this excerpt, and commercial tax reform is really carried out, when the country's money becomes abundant, not only will others get the credit for nothing, I am afraid that my status in His Majesty's heart will not be as good as it was before. I can no longer compete with others.”
Hearing what Zhao Junchen said, Xu Qingyan nodded in agreement, but a strange light flashed in Chu Jiayi's eyes.
At this time, outside the study, someone from the Zhao family reported: "Sir, Lord Zuo Lanshan, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Lord Zhan Shanchang, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, are here."
After hearing the report, Zhao Junchen did not delay. After giving Chu Jiayi a few instructions, he got up and left with Xu Qingyan.
After Zhao Junchen left, Chu Jiayi first checked around the study room. After seeing that no one was paying attention, she returned to the desk, carefully opened the secret box where Zhao Junchen kept the folds, then spread paper and polished ink, and began to face Zhao Junchen. Junchen's "Life-Saving Notes" started to be copied
…………
Naturally, Zhao Junchen once again took advantage of Chu Jiayi and deliberately asked Chu Jiayi to hand over this document to Prince Zhu Heyu.
Zhao Junchen is now determined to break away from the control of Emperor Deqing and follow the path of a powerful minister
But now that the situation between the DPRK and China is stable, the major factions have divided up all the power they can divide. It is really difficult for Zhao Junchen to go further, let alone replace Zhou Shangjing.
Therefore, only by muddying the water and disrupting the originally stable situation can Zhao Junchen fish in troubled waters and have the opportunity to develop further!
And throughout the ages, what could have turned the originally stable situation into chaos?
Only system reform!
Among them, the reform of the tax system, which involves the interests of all parties, is even more so!
That's why Zhao Junchen spent a whole day preparing this business tax reform brochure!
But Zhao Junchen does not intend to do this himself. As Zhao Junchen said before, commercial tax reform involves too many interests in all aspects, and it affects the whole body! If you want to reform, it will inevitably touch the interests of all forces and attract hostility from all over the world.
Zhao Junchen can see this clearly, and so can Zhou Shangjing, Huang Yourong, and Shen Changmao, and naturally they will not do such a thing!
Even if Zhao Junchen really handed over this document to Emperor Deqing, even with Emperor Deqing's love for money, he would consider it in detail and not dare to take action easily.
So, who would do such a "right and reckless stupid thing"?
Only Prince Zhu Heyu
It just so happened that because there were mistakes in the preparations for the southern tour that he was responsible for before, Prince Zhu Heyu was eager to find an opportunity to prove his ability to work to Emperor Deqing and the officials again!
It just so happens that Emperor Deqing is about to tour the south. During the tour, Prince Zhu and the governor of Yu will have unprecedented power in their hands, enough to push forward such a business and tax reform!
Just in time, Zhao Junchen planned to cause more trouble for the prince!
And Zhao Junchen emphasized the importance of this book to him in front of Chu Jiayi, as well as the losses if it would be obtained by others, and he was not afraid that Chu Jiayi would not be able to hurry up and give this book to Prince Zhu Heyu.
…………
"Life-saving coupons? Life-saving coupons are almost enough!"
Thinking like this secretly, Zhao Junchen walked towards the main hall of Zhao Mansion
There, the "Zhao Party" officials summoned by him were already waiting.
