"So our tax is not high." Ai Zhixin said, "This is equivalent to the market access tax. If you set up a stall on the street, the street charges a stall fee of five yuan. It only allows you to set up a stall here and does not consider you.
How much can you actually earn? Thinking about it on the other hand, even if there is no tax, the old madam still exploits the prostitutes? Regardless of the fact that the government does not tax the brothels, the money spent by the brothels on all aspects of entertainment far exceeds the taxes we collect. Let’s go in
Now that we've left the city, I can't say that all the expenses on brothels have disappeared, but at least half of them have disappeared."
The industry has always colluded with government officials and local evil forces, using it as a protective umbrella, but this kind of protection must come at a high price. Several subordinate leaders who were arrested in Guangzhou each had more than 100,000 taels of property confiscated from their homes.
Among them, filial piety from the "flower industry" accounts for a considerable proportion. As for the local gentry, although they do not get involved in this so-called "dirty money" on the surface, in fact, the wealthy slaves below use their status as owners to support the brothel and obtain benefits.
There are also many people who are filial to their masters.
"At the same time, low-end production capacity can also be eliminated." Lin Baiguang said.
"That's what it means." Imposing a unified tax rate without any grade differences will inevitably eliminate the weak ones in the industry. The low-end of the industry is also a low-cost route. To continue to keep prices low, the madams have no other choice but to exploit prostitutes crazily.
There was no other way. The new law abolished personal dependence and adopted a free employment system, which forced the madams to pay wages, which invisibly increased labor costs. Under the dual pressure of heavy taxes and rising labor costs, low-level brothels could only
Can withdraw from the market. However, Ai Zhixin is unwilling to talk more about this issue. It is quite impolite to discuss career upgrades in front of a woman, even if it is a purely professional discussion.
"From the perspective of social development, it is definitely not a good thing to have many prostitutes. Although the so-called problem is solved for a while, prostitutes rarely give birth, and they generally do not take good care of them after giving birth. The so-called sexual outlet can only alleviate the problem at best.
It solves social conflicts and does not solve people's most basic needs for reproduction and reproduction. It can even be said to be a kind of narcotic." Liu Xiang quickly made another great point.
Mu Min continued to introduce that the second step is to abolish the relationship of personal dependence in this industry, whether it is buying or selling or so-called "adoption", and converting it to a free employment relationship. If a prostitute is willing to find another way out, this will be allowed, and no one will be allowed to do so.
At the same time, the Guangzhou Municipal Government provides necessary employment assistance and marriage introduction to women who are willing to become good people.
"At the same time, we will launch a complaint campaign among prostitutes and "overturn old cases". Among them, there will be a lot of public outrage and a murder case, and we will arrest a group of them and try them in public. In this way, our measures will not be effective.
Is there any resistance?"
Originally, the abolition of personal dependence would inevitably arouse resistance from the old madam leader's family, but through the "complaint campaign" and "clearing old cases" to arrest and kill a large number of people, not only can the resistance be destroyed, but also a fortune can be made.
Needless to say, those who work in this business cannot escape the words "forcing girls into prostitution". Even if they are punished according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, it is enough to drink a pot. The crimes of this group of people are ready-made, as long as they are willing to punish anyone.
Who can be dealt with?
"Considering that most women in this time and space are forced to work in a career, except for a few indolent people who are willing to continue to work in this industry, most women should still have the hope of becoming a good person. Among them, those who are homeless, we will divide them into groups.
Sent to Hainan."
The large number of prostitutes who become prostitutes can not only replenish the female labor force in the industry and commerce of the Senate, but also alleviate the current imbalance between men and women in the Senate-ruled areas of Qiongzhou and other places, and solve the marriage problems of a considerable number of immigrants. It can be said to serve multiple purposes with one stone.
After these rectifications, the customs industry in Guangzhou was rebuilt according to the existing model of the Senate. Ai Zhixin listened carefully and carefully considered the taxation method and specific tax rate for the customs industry in Guangzhou.
Of course, the implementability under the low-level management state of this time and space must also be considered. When he heard Mu Min talking about the resettlement issue of Guangzhou Lehu, he said:
"I suggest taking over the government-run brothels."
Mu Min was surprised: "You mean?"
"I'm saying that Ziminglou can take over these confiscated properties and set up a Ziminglou Entertainment Company." Ai Zhixin actually had this idea for a long time. How to take the high-end route of smoke-free industry? Ziminglou is a very good one.
For example, "This can revitalize the properties, equipment and personnel we received during the purge of the custom industry so that they can continue to function."
Although the properties and equipment received can be used for other purposes, it is not so easy to use the large number of employees. In particular, almost all the staff in official brothels are from Lehu. They have not been engaged in production for generations, although they are willing to remove untouchables.
hat, but those who change careers are not necessarily very strong. Unless they engage in forced labor like a labor camp, it will be quite difficult and costly for them to change careers.
Liu Xiang's face was not very lively. Ai Zhixin knew that his little Jiujiu, Ziming Tower is a "state-owned enterprise" and the profits are directly handed over to the Senate. No matter how big the scale is, no matter how high the profits are, it will not match the financial revenue of the Guangzhou Municipal Government.
It doesn't matter much. So there is:
"Although it is a state-owned enterprise, the prostitutes who pay the head tax can be owned by the local government. The specific tax sharing can be discussed later."
Liu Xiang's face looked better now.
Ai Zhixin then continued: "Because the custom industry is included in the heavy tax industry, we will definitely consider it when formulating specific tax rates."
"Didn't you say that the poll tax on prostitutes is temporary?" Mu Min asked.
"I'm not being strict. The poll tax is temporary. After the new system of the custom industry is established, we will start to implement personal income tax for prostitutes and set specific tax rates based on their income. Of course, there is no starting point for prostitutes to be exempted from the tax.
After all, it is a combination of prohibition and taxation, which puts a bit of a burden on both those who do this and those who want to do this."
Ai Zhixin smiled and said: "As for the taxation of the custom industry, that's all I have considered for the time being. However, I have one more request, do you have more detailed information on Guangzhou's economic situation? I have read it.
Look, there are too many uncertainties. Many data rely on speculation, which is not possible. Guangzhou’s economic aggregate is unclear, and finance and taxation work is difficult to handle.”
"Actually, we have been doing census work, but we lack data processing capabilities and have accumulated a lot of data, making it impossible to compile statistics in time." Liu Xiang said, "If we conduct an economic census again, we will be drowned in data collected."
Liu Xiang's work in the past few months has mainly been conducting household surveys. There are three purposes: registration under the new household registration system, and basic census of real estate and industrial and commercial registration social conditions. It roughly includes part of the economic census, but it is not too detailed.
This is not because Liu Xiang wants to be simple, but he really does not have the ability.
Even with a very simple survey, the data collected is already very complex. This involves the issue of data maintenance.
Liu Xiang himself has a background in data processing, and he knows that it would be a disaster to summarize and calculate a large amount of data by hand. Operation Engine, Hainan Island Population and Economic Census, and other tasks involving big data processing all rely on the Senate's computing center server.
Powerful processing power. If it were processed manually, it would take several years to complete, and the error rate would be extremely high. When the United States conducted a census in the 19th century, it often took seven or eight years to process the summary data.
Now that Guangzhou wants to conduct these censuses, without the support of a computer system, Guangzhou also does not have the ability to rely solely on manual compilation. It will still have to be sent back to Lingao for processing, and it will take at least a year or two to see the results. Even though Liu Xiang has already
There is a report requesting the establishment of a data center in Guangzhou, but there is also a question of when it will be implemented.
Ai Zhixin left before the meeting was over. As one of Wudaokou's generals, his job is not only the director of finance and taxation of Guangdong and Guangzhou, Wudaokou itself has a lot of things for him to complete. The most important of which is to read the Hong Kong Treasury.
Circulate reports and give corresponding instructions. Especially at this critical moment when the front line is fighting and financial reforms are being carried out in the rear, he has to keep a close eye on it.
However, before Mr. Ai left, he sent a memo to Liu Xiang, asking him to "read it when he has time after the meeting." Liu Xiang quickly opened it after the meeting. The content of the memo was "reasonable" for Minister Hong's intervention.
The imposition of "burdens" raises "anxieties" and "prudent concerns."
Of course Liu Xiang understands the meaning of this set of diplomatic rhetoric. But Minister Hong is from the army and is not under his control. The military situation is urgent and the troops are mobilized frequently. The logistics department has great autonomy unless he writes to the Senate and takes the lead.
He started spraying, otherwise no one would care. The result was that his headache worsened a little bit more.
Liu Xiang has been in Guangfu for more than a hundred days, and he has had headaches for more than a hundred days. He has severe headaches inside and outside, up and down.
Even before people came to Guangfu, Xun Suji's rural survey report had been "spread all over the world" because the cases of deficiencies exposed in the report were mainly concentrated under the rule of Qiongfu, and some of them were criticized by Liu Xiang as "having ** status"
The activists started to sneer again, which made Liu Xiang feel quite dejected when he boarded the boat and left.
When he arrived in Guangzhou, Liu Xiang found that in addition to several current leaders such as Wen Shixiang and others on his head, various mountaintops had already stretched out their tentacles before him. Some had already circled the territory and prepared it.
In order to provide good support for the army's logistics, the longest stretch is that Minister Hong directly ended his own life. To say that this is a reasonable burden, the incubation period has always been managed by the Delong system, that is to say
