Qin Zhiyuan has always focused on military construction, and does not interfere much with government work. 23us.

On the one hand, this is certainly because Qin Zhiyuan trusts Lu Zhengxiang and Huang Bohan, but on the other hand, it is because Qin Zhiyuan intends to delegate power.
Power cannot be too concentrated. If the powerful person takes over everything and wants to do the best, then the most likely result is that nothing can be done well. After all, human energy is limited, and even Qin Zhiyuan cannot cover everything.
Lanfang is not only Qin Zhiyuan's Lanfang, but also Lu Zhengxiang and Huang Bohan's Lanfang. If we want to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of Lu Zhengxiang and Huang Bohan, we must let Lu Zhengxiang and Huang Bohan hold some power and participate in Lanfang's country. Only in this way can a certain balance be achieved during construction.
It makes sense for scholars and officials to share the world.
Okay, the above is all nonsense. The fundamental reason why Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care about government affairs is because he wants to be lazy. Qin Zhiyuan doesn't want to be bound by heavy government affairs. If he has that time, Qin Zhiyuan might as well share the happiness of family with his children. Lu Zhengxiang doesn't have it anyway. My child, let Lu Zhengxiang fight for the liberation of Lanfang throughout his life.
After all, Lu Zhengxiang still had limitations. It was not until after communicating with Lu Zhengxiang that Qin Zhiyuan understood the current situation of Lanfang government agencies.
Compared with the common national ministries and commissions in the 21st century, Lanfang's government agencies are relatively simple. So far, Lanfang only has a few departments including the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Civil Affairs, Ministry of Commerce, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Defense Ministry, and Ministry of Culture. There are basically no departments and other departments, or they are concentrated in other departments and are not listed separately to show attention. Compared with the rapid development of Lanfang, this is definitely lagging behind.
After communicating with Lu Zhengxiang, Qin Zhiyuan decided to separate education from the Ministry of Science and Technology, and separate the public security, judicial supervision and other departments from the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Together with the newly established Ministry of Land and Resources, Ministry of Environmental Protection, Ministry of Transportation and Ministry of Water Resources, Lanfang's government agencies are finally basically in place.
Although it is basically complete, it also has side effects. When Lu Zhengxiang saw the organizational structure proposed by Qin Zhiyuan, Lu Zhengxiang felt a bit toothache: In this way, the nine departments have increased to seventeen, and the functions are more comprehensive, but the manpower must be increased. , we need to build a new office space, office expenses will definitely increase significantly, and we will have to tighten our belts again next year.
Lu Zhengxiang really has a headache, because the Lanfang government is not responsible for military expenditures, so although the tax rate of the Lanfang government has not been high in recent years, Lu Zhengxiang's life is relatively comfortable, and he can spend more money for national construction. But now it seems The good days are coming to an end.
Lanfang advocated high salary to maintain integrity. The income of a civil servant can basically support the life of a family of four. Coupled with the high social status, the Lanfang government is generally considered clean. After such a long time since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Lanfang There were no big tigers emerging from the Fang government, and there were no cases that frequently appeared in the Republic of China. Overall, it was pretty good.
High salary to maintain integrity also brings a heavy burden to the government. The salary of an ordinary civil servant is about the same as that of a professional armored soldier. This is a medium level in Lanfang's salary system. However, the Lanfang government does not have the wealth of Qin Zhiyuan. The Lanfang government does not even levy agricultural taxes, so the Lanfang government does not have much money left.
When it comes to increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, the most important thing is to increase revenue. Before you can save a few dollars, you must first make the cake bigger, and then you can have more room. Qin Zhiyuan can stand up and talk without pain in his back.
What you said is very light, open source and open source, even the agricultural tax is not high. How can you ask me to raise the commercial tax? Lu Zhengxiang's expression was a bit resentful, but it was fleeting. His eyes lit up when he made suggestions. .
There is no need to think about agricultural tax. Commercial tax is the only solution Lu Zhengxiang can think of.
Although Qin Zhiyuan has a big business, he has already afforded Lanfang's military expenses. Lu Zhengxiang is embarrassed to ask Qin Zhiyuan to pay more, so he can only tap the potential from within.
Ha, this is really a good idea. I have no problem with it, but you have to discuss the specific details with Taiyuan. Qin Zhiyuan quietly threw the pot to Huang Bohan.
Although Lu Zhengxiang didn't say it clearly, it was equivalent to taking money out of Qin Zhiyuan's pocket. Qin Zhiyuan himself was the largest businessman in Lanfang. If business taxes were to be increased, the profits of Qin Zhiyuan's companies would be reduced, which would in turn affect Qin Zhiyuan's income. , and then affected Lanfang’s army construction
This is a really bad idea.
Forget it about looking for Taiyuan. Let me tell you, there is still some possibility. Looking for Taiyuan is tantamount to asking for discomfort. Lu Zhengxiang waved his hands repeatedly, not having any hope at all.
Qin Zhiyuan is the largest businessman in Lanfang, and Huang Bohan is not bad either. Huang Bohan used to be the fourteenth richest man in the world. Now, although his industry has shrunk, it is still quite large. Huang Bohan owns Lanfang's only private bank. The economic strength is evident.
The state-owned bank in Lanfang is Lanfang Royal Bank, which is actually Qin Zhiyuan's private property. The president of the head office is Gaspard, who also serves as the Minister of Finance in Lanfang.
Then you just have to figure it out. Anyway, it is certain to add government departments. The purpose of the Lanfang government is to provide better services to the people of Lanfang. This must be adhered to. Qin Zhiyuan does not worry, this is why Qin Zhiyuan does not care about government affairs. The benefits are also the meaning of the existence of Prime Minister Lu Zhengxiang.
Then I will also issue national bonds, and I will get one billion first. Lu Zhengxiang became very angry, and finally embarked on the road of no return.
In fact, this is normal. Currently, all countries around the world are issuing national bonds. Except for Lanfang, no country does not owe money. The reason why the Lanfang government does not owe money is because Qin Zhiyuan has shouldered the responsibility. If the Lanfang government had to be responsible for Lanfang's military expenses, then Lu Zhengxiang would have already pawned his pants.
You can pay it when it's due, but you can't default on it when it's due. It's up to you how much you pay. Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care about this, because the treasury bonds issued by Qin Zhiyuan haven't been sold out yet.
Strictly speaking, what Qin Zhiyuan issued should be military bonds. As for whether they can be sold out, Qin Zhiyuan does not need to worry. Anyway, Old Renault has already underwritten it. Even if it is ruined, it will be ruined in the hands of Old Renault.
Old Renault is still very capable, at least much smarter than Lu Zhengxiang, and he has no bottom line.
Starting around March, a commercial company called Pacific Financial appeared in American society. The main business of this commercial company is to conduct various investments, including stock and bond acquisitions and mergers, etc. Lanfang Treasury Bonds is the company's first a business.
The basic organizational method of Pacific Financial is a membership system, which means that as long as a part of the products are purchased from Pacific Financial, the purchaser will have the qualification of a salesperson and thus be qualified to operate all products of Pacific Financial.
Even if we look at Pacific Financial from the perspective of the 21st century, we cannot say that what Pacific Financial is doing is a pyramid scheme. Pacific Financial really has business projects and sells real Lanfang government bonds. Even the price of selling Lanfang government bonds is
It was sold at half the normal face value, so Pacific Financial immediately caused a sensation when it was born.
This is a national debt, guaranteed by the country's reputation. It will definitely be exchanged for cash after maturity. It is definitely a profitable business.
Pacific Financial also spares no expense in publicity. Almost all newspapers and periodicals in the United States have reports on Pacific Financial every week. In some newspapers, Pacific Financial is even touted as the best financial company in the United States.
Therefore, in the United States, Pacific Financial has grown rapidly. In just three months, Pacific Financial has more than 200,000 salespeople throughout the United States. Regrettably, although Pacific Financial is developing extremely fast
, but the products provided by Pacific Financial are not rich. Even the main Lanfang Treasury Bonds cannot be sold as much as they want. Specifically, it is only thirty or fifty US dollars per person.
By May, Pacific Financial was finally no longer conservative. At the strong request of its salesmen, Pacific Financial no longer restricted the sale of government bonds. At the same time, the projects it operated were not only Lanfang government bonds, but also Venezuelan oil.
Stock and Pacific Company's own health care product Brain Gold.
At the same time, Pacific Company also began to introduce a promotion mechanism. If you purchase a certain number of products, you can be promoted from a salesperson to a business supervisor, and then become a sales manager, district manager, regional manager, or even a company director, etc.
Lanfang Treasury Bonds, which were originally traded at face value, have also changed. In order to move to a higher level as soon as possible, some people began to speculate on Lanfang Treasury Bonds. The transaction price began to deviate from the actual value. In some remote areas, the transaction price has reached the actual face value.
Nearly twice as much.
At the same time, the oil stocks and brain gold launched by Pacific Financial were immediately sought after by the market.
The half-price sale of Lanfang Treasury Bonds operated by Pacific Financial gave people a good impression. Although the sales price has now been adjusted to the same as the actual face value, in people's minds, the concept of Pacific Financial's products being excellent value for money has been formed.
So the same goes for oil stocks and brain gold. In the minds of many people, these are also great value for money.
In fact, as far as the product itself is concerned, Venezuela’s oil stocks are indeed good. At the end of last year, Federal Petroleum discovered a large-scale oil field in Venezuela. Subsequently, Federal Petroleum and Rockefeller reached an agreement to jointly develop Venezuela’s oil. This is what everyone is doing now.
A well-known positive project.
As for brain gold, it is even more extraordinary. In the product introduction of Pacific Financial, brain gold is an unparalleled health care product. It not only has the effect of curing and preventing diseases, but also can beautify the skin, delay aging, and even rejuvenate the youth.
