"So, although these big businessmen are full of resistance, they still hold their noses and admit it first?"

"Yes, although after the new law is promulgated next year, there will definitely be people who violate it. But at least today, everyone still unanimously supports the promulgation of the "Labor Law" by the court and is willing to pay commercial taxes. And it is all in the minutes of today's War Foundation shareholders meeting

Signed."

"Huh, I'm not afraid of them being disobedient in the future, as long as they sign. When the time comes, whoever is dishonest, I will first kick him out of the shareholders' meeting, then deal with his backers, and finally make him bankrupt! Sanxi, if a person is rich

He had lived in all kinds of luxury for many years, and now he is suddenly destitute... Wouldn't it be more uncomfortable than having him chopped into pieces? Hmm? "

That night, Cao Sanxi went to the palace overnight and reported to Zhu Youdong the results of today's daytime meeting. Originally, the atmosphere of the conversation between the monarch and his ministers was relatively good, but out of the blue, Zhu Youdong said such a sentence, which suddenly made Cao Sanxi break into a cold sweat.

Scared out.

"Your Majesty, if I were not as humble as the Emperor, I would have been just a tofu seller for the rest of my life. After being under the Emperor's command, I was able to fully display my abilities. I also learned a lot from the Emperor's side. Life experiences

, by this time I am completely satisfied and have no regrets anymore. So please rest assured Your Majesty, although I am from a merchant background, I will strictly abide by the Emperor's "Labor Law" and conscientiously collect business taxes."

"Haha... Sanxi, you think too much."

In fact, every leader plays this thing on his subordinates. When you are not a leader, you will hate this thing very much. But when you sit in the leadership position, you will unconsciously play it on your subordinates.

Something like this.

Without him, it would be the butt that determines the head. People will eventually become what they once hated the most.

Putting aside Zhu Youdong's own power tactics, when he faced Cao Sanxi's statement and took the initiative to ask Ying to take on labor law enforcement supervision and taxation work, he just laughed: How could financial power and taxation power be given to one person?

"What does the Emperor mean?"

"The Apocalypse New Deal starts with economic reform first, and then reforms the official system. In this way, the risk to the country is minimal. However, since there are new things in the economy, the official system still needs to be carried out quickly.

Fine-tuning. I have decided to set up a new yamen, temporarily called the 'State Administration for Industry and Commerce', which will first be affiliated to the Ministry of Household Affairs. The chief officer will be called the Director, with a rank of fifth grade. From next year, they will be responsible for the implementation and implementation of the Labor Law.

Collection of industrial and commercial taxes.”

"Uh..." I didn't get this power, so it would be a lie to say that I wasn't disappointed at all, but it wouldn't be that sad at all. On the contrary, Cao Sanxi felt relieved at this moment:

Having too much power is not a good thing, and he soon realized this.

"Do you dare to ask your Majesty, who is the first director of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce?"

"Hahaha, you came by chance. Well, just sit there for a while, they will be here soon."

"them?"

After a while, three young people walked in with their heads held high. The leader was in his thirties, and the two two steps behind were both in their twenties.

"I will pay my respects to the Emperor."

"No gift, come and introduce me. Do you all know this person? Cao Sanxi from the bank, the God of Wealth. Sanxi, the leader of these three is Li Guojun, the director of the mathematics department of Fangshan School. This tall one is called Wang Huaqin

, named Zhenzhong. He was a Jinshi in the forty-fifth year of Wanli, and is now in the Ministry of War. This person is also named Wang, and his name is Wang Zhi, with the courtesy name Zhiyou. He was also a Jinshi in the forty-fifth year of Wanli, and is now in the Ministry of Punishment.

Sanxi, in the new State Administration for Industry and Commerce, I am going to let Guo Jun be the director, responsible for all affairs of the bureau. Zhenzhong is the first deputy director, commanding the tax police, and is responsible for collecting industrial and commercial taxes, investigating tax evasion, and protecting businessmen who pay taxes in accordance with the law.

power. Zhiyou is the second deputy director, responsible for protecting workers and coordinating the relationship between the court, government at all levels and businessmen."

After listening to Zhu Youdong's introduction, Cao Sanxi shouted wc in her heart!

Why was I so stupid just now? I actually took the initiative to ask the emperor for taxation rights? Is it because banks have been making more and more profits in recent years, and people have followed suit?

Look at these three people! They all belong to the Fangshan family! That Li Guojun was born in a subordinate family, but he was extremely talented in mathematics. Since Matteo Ricci's death, he has become one of the top mathematicians in the Ming Dynasty.

And because of his background, this guy knows a lot about all kinds of sneaky things at the bottom! It will be too difficult for him to be the director to evade taxes!

As for the remaining two, well, President Cao also has his own servants to inquire about various information. So although the emperor did not say anything, Cao Sanxi knew that these two were students of Fang Shan, the real disciples of the emperor. Lord and minister.

The relationship plus the teacher-student relationship plus the grace of reinvention. There is no doubt about the loyalty of this department.

That's right, if the industrial and commercial tax can be collected in full, the amount collected every year will be several times or even ten times more than the current annual income of the imperial court. Such a large amount of wealth must be controlled by people from the Fangshan clan, so that the emperor can rest assured.

.

"You all have a seat." After asking Li Guojun and others to sit down, Zhu Youdong said: "Thanks to the efforts of President Cao, the shareholders of the War Foundation finally admitted to taking the lead in enforcing the Labor Law and paying business taxes. These people from various places

Now that the business leaders have accepted their account, it will be much easier for the small and medium-sized businessmen below to ask them to fulfill the relevant laws. It can be said that only now can you truly perform your duties."

"I would like to thank President Cao for your help."

"It doesn't have to be like this. We are all doing things for the emperor."

"Okay, let's stop talking. Those sitting here today are not outsiders. So I have something to say more openly to you."

"I would like to ask your Majesty to give me your instructions."

"First of all, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce is just a temporary organization. I have always known that when Taizu assigned the land tax to the Ministry of Household Affairs, the horse tax to the Ministry of War, and the corvee labor to the Ministry of Industry, how could I not have known that this would lead to the decentralization of national financial resources and lack of power?

1. But the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty was powerful at that time. Otherwise, the country was unstable. Today, why do I not know that it is not a good law to put the land tax in the Household Department and the industrial and commercial tax in the General Administration. However, I am not yet able to control the entire imperial organization.

Make major changes. So that’s all we can do, it’s just that you have to work hard. In addition to coping with your own heavy work, you also have to fight with the Ministry of Finance..."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I know the task is arduous, but I will try my best to do it well."

"Well. To collect industrial and commercial taxes, we must have the support of force, so this is the reason why I asked Zhenzhong to transfer from the Ministry of War to command the tax police. The origin of this tax police, um, the former Salt Ding is the foundation, and it is the same as Siam, Japan

The veterans who retired after the war are the backbone, and the current temporary quota is 3,000. Zhenzhong, is this enough?"

"Your Majesty, that's enough. After all, it can be foreseen that in the short term, the industrial and commercial taxes of the imperial court will mainly be in Tianjin, Suzhou, and Songjiang. They are just tax policemen who will enforce military law in the future. Please let the emperor know this in advance to avoid impeachment in the future.

I have a disloyal heart."

"Don't worry, as long as it doesn't exceed the size of three thousand people, I can give you a hard time."

"Yes, thank you Your Majesty."

After speaking to Wang Huaqin, Zhu Youdong turned to Wang Zhi and said: "Do you know why I drafted labor laws in advance and arranged special personnel to implement them despite huge pressure and opposition?"

"I have gained something, but it is not very clear. I would like to ask the emperor for guidance."

"Speaking of this." Zhu Youdong stood up, and the four courtiers also stood up quickly.

"Well." After taking a look at the four ministers, Zhu Youdong walked forward slowly: "When it comes to my people in China, they can be said to be the most difficult to manage, and they can also be said to be the easiest to manage. It is difficult to manage because they are difficult to manage.

Our Chinese people have not accepted fate or believed in fate since ancient times. Look at those who go to various temples and Taoist temples to tell their fortunes. If the fortune-telling is up, they will believe it. If the fortune-telling is down, most of them will spit and say, I don’t believe it.”

"Hahaha~"

"I was in Japan a few days ago and listened to Toyotomi Tohide talking about the future governance of Japan. I kindly reminded him that after the chaos in Japan, he longed for great governance and wanted to be better to the people. As a result, this guy smiled and said to me, it's okay, Japan is very good.

Easy to govern. Because the Japanese people believe in: 'The son of a frog is a toad'. This sentence means that whatever I do, my son should also do. At most, I can make some improvements based on the foundation laid by me.

.To be honest, people all think this way, and it is really easy to manage.

But what about us in China?"

At this point, Zhu Youdong turned around and spread his hands: "I, the people of China, believe in the deep down belief that princes, generals and ministers should have their own kind!"

"Your Majesty~!"

"Eh~" He waved his hands meaninglessly: "When I say this, I don't mean that all of us in Ming Dynasty are unruly people who want to rebel. What I mean is that all of our people in China have upward desires in their hearts and

Put in practical efforts. Even if you can’t do it in this life, you must let your next generation be able to climb up! So!”

He turned around and faced the four people, especially Wang Zhidao, with a solemn expression: "To govern such people well, the most important thing is to give them hope! The imperial examination system gives hope to scholars all over the world.

.The "Labor Law" gives hope to millions and millions of workers in the world in the future. If this hope always exists, and some people successfully achieve glory in life, then the foundation of our Ming Dynasty will be stable. If this hope disappears, then,

It’s hard to say, it’s just that the earth is shaking!
