In Guanzhong, Fang Jun is a very strange character.
He has received mixed praise and praise...
In the eyes of ordinary people, Fang Jun is a good official who loves the people like a son and is even willing to risk his career for the people's grievances. He is fair, strict, and majestic, so the people build a shrine for him, praise his merits, and praise him as "the leader of all families."
"Buddha" is a legend among legends!
In the eyes of the aristocrats and the children of aristocratic families, Fang Jun was a complete and utter bastard. He did nothing when he went crazy and had no trace of the so-called gentleman's upbringing or aristocratic temperament.
But he also specializes in attacking aristocratic families to gain his own reputation. This is so hypocritical and cunning that it makes people hate him and make him want to eat his flesh alive!
But in the eyes of His Majesty Li Er, putting aside those gorgeous praises and filthy insults, it was Fang Jun's incomparable contribution to the fact that the super ship of the Tang Dynasty could ride the wind and waves and be proud of the world!
The huge wealth gained from selling glass, the increasingly powerful Shenji Camp, Lishan Farm, and Huating Town's two completely different but effective new production models, and the Jiangnan Shipyard provided for the Imperial Navy to traverse the oceans.
Powerful technology…
It is precisely because of all this that even if the raging war in the Western Regions took up too much of the Tang Dynasty's energy, His Majesty Li Er could still think about destroying Goguryeo with both water and rivers, and achieving his unparalleled great cause of becoming an emperor throughout the ages!
Therefore, how could His Majesty Li Er give up on Fang Jun under the pressure of Guanlong Group?
He has already made up his mind, no matter how arrogant and domineering Fang Jun is, or how he behaves, as long as he does not rebel, then he will be given a lifetime of wealth and honor, and his Fang family will be given a break with the country!
In the Dragon Palace, His Majesty Li Er was holding a thin planning book. From time to time, he raised his eyes to look at Fang Jun, who was sitting in front of him, pretending to be a gentle gentleman. His eyelids twitched subconsciously.
Too cruel...
If nothing else happens, once the contents of this plan are spread, Guanzhong will be shaken and cursed!
This is simply more serious than digging up the ancestral graves of the Guanlong Group!
His Majesty Li Er frowned: "Isn't this... a bit too much? It may cause the Guanlong Group to resist with all its strength, and even force them to jump over the wall in a hurry?"
He admired Fang Jun's plan, but at the same time he was a little worried.
Don't look at those hairpin families who boast about inheriting poems and books, farming and reading, but in fact the "smell of copper" they talk about is also the most basic foundation of the family. Even if the literary name is spread all over the world, even if the etiquette is praised in ancient and modern times, it is still the same
need money!
Without money, how can the Wei family and the Du family catch up from behind and gradually compete with the traditional "Eight Pillar Kingdom"?
Without money, how can the Changsun family firmly maintain its position as the core of the Guanlong Group?
Without money, how can the Li family of Longxi comply with the destiny and the will of the people, and establish the world in a matter of course?
Cutting off the Guanlong Group's financial path, wouldn't it be equivalent to killing their parents?
If the Guanlong Group is forced to take risks, it will be a big deal!
Fang Jun shook his head slightly and said firmly: "No."
His Majesty Li Er wondered: "Why are you so sure?"
Fang Jundao: "Money is a necessary factor for a family to survive or even grow, but it is never the most important. Only talent is the most important. Since ancient times, rebels have emerged one after another, but which one is because of dislike?
You rebel because you have little money? Money is flesh, and cutting off some flesh will not kill you."
When Your Majesty Li Er thinks about it, it makes sense.
Then he looked at the planning book in his hand and asked: "But this business tax... The current business tax law in Huating Town has caused an uproar in the world. There are countless memorials every day, all of which are voices of opposition. What you want so openly
The commercial tax was introduced throughout the country, and it was a crazy tax of one out of ten. Could it be that he wanted to recreate the grand situation of war in the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty? "
His Majesty Li Er made a rare joke...
He thought Fang Jun's plan was a joke.
The tax rate in Huating Town has caused a raging public opinion all over the world. The aristocratic families who control a large number of businesses are miserable. They see countless goods flowing in front of them without being able to get a share of them. How frustrating and frustrating it is.
Grudge?
You kid actually wants all the commercial taxes in the world to be implemented according to Huating Town's method. Only the two most important taxes, production and sales, are levied, and it is an exaggeratedly heavy one-ten-tax...
Seeing that my country is secure, do you want me to have a taste of the time when Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was surrounded by war and besieged on all sides?
Fang Jun smiled and said calmly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, it won't happen, because... Guanlong Group will approve this tax rate."
His Majesty Li Er was a little confused...
He understood the meaning of this sentence.
If Guanzhong is stable, the world will be stable.
As long as Guanzhong is stable, the entire world will still belong to the Tang Dynasty. No matter the Jiangnan gentry or the Shandong tycoons, there will be no trouble. Most of the Tang Dynasty lions are stationed in Guanzhong. As long as there is a rebellion anywhere in the world, the army will
At any time, you can rely on Guanzhong, go out of the four passes, and pacify the world.
But the problem is, your plan has just cut off most of the Guanlong Group's financial resources, and it has already caused a lot of anger. If the Guanlong Group does not rebel, it is considered a loyal minister, so how can it go against the world's noble families and agree with ten
What is the tax rate?
Fang Jun looked confident, and his dark face seemed calm and clear, as if he was planning a victory thousands of miles away. He really enjoyed His Majesty Li Er's "not ashamed to ask questions" attitude at this moment.
It feels really good to be able to show off in front of the emperor...
But what kind of person is His Majesty Li Er?
Fang Jun had already mastered the tricks and scheming, and Fang Jun was keenly aware of it with only a slight hint of pride on his face.
His Majesty the Emperor turned his body slightly, placed his left hand on the mat, changed his center of gravity, and kicked his right leg out unceremoniously.
Hit Fang Jun's thigh right in the middle.
Fang Junzheng was feeling relieved. He was suddenly kicked and staggered, almost falling to the ground. He asked in shock: "Why did you kick me?"
His Majesty Li Er said with a dark face: "If you have something to say, just say it, if you have something to say, let it go. Are you pretending to be a ghost in front of me? Are you itching again?"
Fang Jun was startled and quickly sat upright.
It's okay to be kicked by the emperor, but it's not okay to be beaten by the emperor.
After he was released from prison, he only met with his family once, and then came to see His Majesty Li Er with the planning documents he had written in prison. His lovely wife and concubine at home had not yet had time to comfort him. What if this was going to happen again?
Having to lie on the bed for ten and a half days, wouldn't it mean that all the tenderness towards the beautiful wife and concubine that he has been looking forward to day and night will be in vain?
If you are dissatisfied with your desires for a long time, the chance of being cheated will increase exponentially...
Fang Jun quickly said seriously: "The reason why Wei Chen said that the Guanlong Group would agree with this tax rate is because of one sentence - the people are not worried about the scarcity of the country, but about the inequality!"
His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he understood.
I was secretly amazed at how young this boy could see people's hearts clearly!
First cutting off the Guanlong Group's financial path, and then introducing a one-in-ten tax rate, an inevitable situation emerged - Shandong powerful people and Jiangnan nobles would all resist this harsh tax rate, and
The Guanlong Group will acquiesce or even openly support it.
Why does Guanlong Group support?
Very simple and balanced!
With its financial path cut off by Fang Jun, the Guanlong Group's financial resources will inevitably plummet, and it will be at a disadvantage compared with the Jiangnan gentry and Shandong tycoons. As one goes and the other goes, the Guanlong Group's status will inevitably be challenged. And the tax rate of one out of every ten taxes
It seems that everyone is treated equally, but those with more income will obviously suffer more...
Is the tax of one hundred guan the same as the tax of 10,000 guan?
The Guanlong Group's financial path was cut off, but it paid less taxes and developed faster because the burden was lighter. The Jiangnan gentry and Shandong tycoons had to bear all the taxes, and their development momentum was bound to be severely hampered.
Under such circumstances, how could Guanlong Group not support the one-in-ten tax rate?
As long as the Guanlong Group supports it, then there will be peace in Guanzhong; as long as Guanzhong is stable, who in the world would dare to seek death and rebel?
Destroyed in minutes...
Since no one dares to rebel, this tax rate must be implemented.
As for whether the tax rate of one out of every ten taxes is a "tyranny" that is fiercer than the tiger, just look at Huating Town to know. Although the tax rate has increased several times, those miscellaneous "taxes and miscellaneous taxes" with various names in various places have been banned.
The tax amount is rising steadily!
This is exactly what His Majesty Li Er wants to see.
If the local government collects less miscellaneous taxes, its strength will inevitably weaken; if the central government collects more taxes, it will naturally become stronger!
Having strong stems and weak branches is the way to long-term peace and stability!
His Majesty Li Er admired from the bottom of his heart, this boy really deserves his praise, he really has the talent of being a prime minister...
