Thank me?
Zhu Yunwen looked at the shopkeeper in confusion and asked, "Why should we thank Emperor Jianwen?"
With a smile on his face, the shopkeeper explained: "Emperor Jianwen stipulated that commercial taxes should be 15% to 1%. This tax rate is not very good."
"not too good?"
Zhu Yunwen's face looked a little ugly. This was because someone was pointing fingers at him for criticizing the New Deal.
Zhu Yunwen could ignore it if the officials said it was not good, but if the businessman said it was not good, it would be his own problem.
Could it be that I have taken too big a step by adjusting the tax rate of 30 to 15 in the Hongwu Dynasty?
It shouldn’t be. I’ve done market research myself. Even though the Hongwu Dynasty adopted a business tax of thirty to one, it was very low and comfortable. They made a lot of money and didn’t even need basic tax evasion operations. But three The ten taxes are business tax, and there are a lot of taxes that come to you. The total expenditure definitely exceeds the fifteen taxes and one.
The new business policy caused a sensation as soon as it was launched, and Peiping and Suzhou were the first to implement it, which shows that this policy is still popular. Business in the capital and other places is becoming increasingly prosperous, and businessmen are constantly coming and going. The new business policy has achieved great success.
The core of the new business strategy is to mix various taxes together to form a comprehensive tax of one out of fifteen taxes.
Now some people say it's not good?
Seeing that Zhu Yunwen was not very happy, the shopkeeper stopped trying to make excuses and said directly: "Think about it, the tax rate of fifteen to one tax is acceptable to everyone. However, how much profit can be made from grain, cloth, and medicinal herbs?" What’s the point? Even if you can get three cents of profit from one stone of grain, you will have to pay twenty cents of tax for every fifteen cents of tax."
"Profits are very thin. With fifteen taxes per yen and a lot of scraping, one stone of grain will fall into the hand with a profit of more than 2 yen. But if you want to get into the antique business, you can buy a Tang Dynasty piece from the Boguxuan store across the street. The price of the jade is one thousand taels, which is still less than 70 taels of silver with a tax of 15, but how much profit is there? At least eight or nine hundred taels."
"On the one hand, the profit is small, with a tax of fifteen, and on the other hand, the profit is huge, with a tax of fifteen. If this young master wants to enter the industry, there is no need to say what choice he should make? In my opinion, doing business is at this time. If you miss it, But I can’t wait for such an opportunity again.”
Concubine Ning asked from the side: "The shopkeeper is so generous, isn't he afraid that we will steal his business?"
The shopkeeper looked kind and said confidently: "Madam, if you are afraid, won't you stop doing business? Even if I don't say anything about these things, I believe you will know. Why don't we form a good relationship? I don't think we will have cooperation in the future. Chance."
Concubine Ning admired the businessmen in front of her. They were not afraid of competition or competition for business, but relied on their ability and confidence.
Zhu Yunwen finally figured out what the problem was and said solemnly to the shopkeeper: "You are a meritorious person. Let's go back."
The shopkeeper looked at Zhu Yunwen's leaving figure and wondered, a person with merit? What merit do you have? This man was really weird. When he saw a new guest coming, he shook his head and forgot about it.
Linhe Restaurant has a unique elegance.
Sun Dong had already arranged a table of food and drinks.
When Zhu Yunwen came up, he saw Sun Dong stealing his own food. He couldn't help but feel a little depressed. This guy was so presumptuous that he tasted all his own food in the name of tasting.
"Sir, shopkeeper Yang is waiting downstairs."
Sun Dong wiped his mouth and said.
Zhu Yunwen nodded: "This person can recognize me, but we can't let him tell it. If we can't seal his mouth, things will always be troublesome."
Sun Dong made a knife with his right hand, shook it slightly on his neck, and whispered: "Then I will kill him now and shut him up forever."
Zhu Yunwen glared at Sun Dong, where did the security bureau come from with so many killers? They paid hush money for keeping a secret. If it was not safe, they would threaten him, such as destroying his whole family. As for killing him directly...
If you kill one person today, if someone else recognizes him another day, can you still kill him?
You must know that he shows up every year during the National Day, and he also walks on the street from time to time, and he is recognized not once or twice. Suzhou is only a few hundred miles away from the capital. If someone happens to see me, you can't just bury him alive, right?
"Let him come up."
Zhu Yunwen gave Sun Dong a fierce look. Sun Dong shivered, took a step back quickly, and waved to the railing.
Yang Chun wiped the sweat from his face and stood in front of Zhu Yunwen, his legs trembling.
"How did you recognize me?"
Zhu Yunwen went straight to the point.
Yang Chun felt that his throat was a little dry, and he swallowed several times before speaking out: "The grassroots once stayed in the capital with their boss Shen Yiyuan."
Zhu Yunwen looked at the frightened Yang Chun, pointed to the stool beside him, and said, "Sit down and talk."
"No, I don't dare."
Yang Chun waved his hands quickly and stuttered nervously.
Zhu Yunwen didn't force himself and asked, "Shen Yiyuan has come to Suzhou City, right?"
Yang Chun said simply: "Hey, my boss is preparing for a second voyage to Nanyang. We have prepared a lot of goods in Suzhou and we should go to Taicang Prefecture in the next two days."
Zhu Yunwen smiled and said: "Shen Yiyuan is not simple. He is the richest person and the leader of micro-business."
Yang Chun's eyes widened, feeling uneasy.
If the emperor praises the officials, that is the glory of the officials. If the emperor praises the people, that is the glory of the people. But if the emperor praises the businessmen, then the businessmen will die!
During the Hongwu Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang once praised the wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River. As a result, those wealthy businessmen were either exiled or had their property confiscated. They were even involved in major crimes and were wiped out under a bloody knife...
These things are not unfamiliar to Yang Chun. Although Zhu Yunwen in front of him is young, he is Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson after all. Zhu Yuanzhang used his dragon claw hand to dig out and kill a bunch of people. Even if Zhu Yunwen doesn't know the dragon claw hand, he can. Heihu must dig his heart out. Could this be a signal to take action against Shen Yiyuan?
It’s over!
The last family named Shen has already declined, so it’s our turn?
Yang Chun looked at Zhu Yunwen uneasily, trembling and begging in a low voice: "Master, as long as I say a word, the Shen family is willing to give up all the family property. I just hope that the young and old of the Shen family will be spared."
When Zhu Yunwen saw Yang Chun like this, he couldn't help but was stunned. When did he say that he would deal with Shen Yiyuan?
Seeing Yang Chun's misunderstanding, Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly and waved his hand: "You are overthinking. I still know about Shen Yiyuan. This man has made military exploits in the old port of Nanyang. If he is right, he will not be touched. Find him. You just came here to tell you that the news of my arrival must not be spread to any other person, including Shen Yiyuan!"
Yang Chun was almost frightened to death. He nodded repeatedly and almost swore a curse on his grandparents before he was sent out of the restaurant.
"That'll be fine?"
Sun Dong was a little depressed, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Concubine Ning looked at the somewhat dull Zhu Yunwen and asked, "But are you thinking about what the shopkeeper said?" Zhu Yunwen chewed the food and nodded slightly.
What the jade shop owner said was not wrong. The business tax of 15% and 1% seems to be good, but in fact there is a big problem.
The problem is that it is too one-size-fits-all.
Commercial taxes are all 15 per cent. What does this mean? If someone sells tea or steamed buns, they only earn a few hundred coins a day. If they pay 15 per cent per tax, how much more can they get?
Let’s look at those who sell drinks, antiques, and exotic goods. They earn at least dozens of taels of silver a day, and sometimes they earn thousands of taels of silver. Taxes of dozens of taels of silver are too much for them. drizzle.
A one-size-fits-all tax rate may seem fair, but in fact it is so unfair!
Zhu Yunwen was a little depressed. He blamed himself for not getting more involved in tax laws and studying market rules in his later generations. Now the problem is in front of him. Is it difficult to solve it?
Tax rates are related to the overall situation, people's livelihood and the future of business, and must be changed.
But how to change it?
Isn't it just "fair" in ancient times that has lasted until now, and a tax system that has lasted until the Ming Dynasty? Although the tax rates used in each dynasty are different, they are all treated equally regardless of whether they change the soup or medicine.
The so-called same tax rate, one world...
"You eat the big shrimp, and I eat the small shrimp."
Cong Pei'er helped Concubine Ning pick up the vegetables and also sat aside.
Sun Dong stared at it, but did not dare to say anything. Cong Pei'er is no longer under her control now. She and Concubine Ning have become good sisters. The consequence of taking care of him is to offend Concubine Ning, and to offend Concubine Ning is to offend the emperor...
Forget it, I didn’t see anything.
Zhu Yunwen suddenly looked at Cong Pei'er. Cong Pei'er stopped holding the shrimp with her chopsticks and looked at Zhu Yunwen. Seeing him staring at his shrimp, she couldn't help but ask: "Do you want to eat it?"
"Well……"
Zhu Yunwen was depressed. Why didn't he think that business was just a matter of big shrimps and small shrimps? !
The meat of large shrimps is rich in fat, while the meat of small shrimps is less fat. Although both have meat, the prices are probably different. Since you can price them differently, why can't you make the interest rates different?
Does it have to be one-size-fits-all, with a tax of one for all fifteen? Isn't that bullying?
For basic living items, such as steamed buns, rice, cloth, paper, and even salt, lower tax rates should be adopted to reduce the pressure on small businessmen and leave them more profit margins.
As for those guys who are engaged in profiteering industries and hold huge wealth in their hands, the court cannot allow them to continue to accumulate like this, otherwise sooner or later, they will really be rich enough to rival the country!
If several businessmen are richer than the country, are they the country or themselves?
This phenomenon is unacceptable.
Zhu Yunwen wants to understand that the commercial tax should be adjusted. As for the name, it is easy to find a name. It is necessary to introduce a luxury goods tax, a special entertainment consumption tax... and bring these industries that have made dozens of profits into heavy tax areas. The fifteen-year tax is obviously inappropriate. , then tax one for ten, or tax one for five if that doesn’t work!
You can't give all the money to businessmen, it's too dangerous.
Zhu Yunwen couldn't figure it out. When he lowered his head and looked at it, he couldn't help but be stunned. Looking at the bowl full of shrimps, he couldn't help but ask Cong Pei'er who was holding shrimps in his hands: "Why is this?"
Cong Pei'er said helplessly: "Don't you want to eat shrimp?"
Zhu Yunwen fainted. He just glanced at the shrimps and got a big bowl. She looked like a very smart girl, but her brain just couldn't work...
