Chapter 130 Dongchang’s new financial path increases step by step
Chapter 129
With the establishment of the Liaodong Management Committee, Cheng Shijie did not hold any position in the management committee. However, he had the power to appoint members, vice-chairmen, and chairman of the management committee.
The current business model in Liaonan is probably the coexistence of planned economy and market economy. In a short period of time, business in Liaonan will not be taxed.
But things are different now. Zhenhai City, which is just a pilot city, has 143 privately operated restaurants and wine shops, and 52 inns and inns of various sizes and levels have been established at the same time.
As Chen Zilong and other agricultural experts arrived in Liaonan, they actually did not completely trust Cheng Shijie. In fact, most of the first batch of farmer experts who arrived in Liaonan were not experts, but assistants or apprentices of various experts. At most, they were
The disciples who enter the house explore the way for their teacher.
But when they arrived in Zhenhai City, they discovered that Cheng Shijie not only provided more than two million acres of land, but also had good dry fields, good paddy fields, hills, pastures, and even a large amount of virgin forest.
.Five thousand military households were also transferred to the field and accepted their command.
What kind of things you want to plant, how to take care of it, and how to operate it, you don’t need these experts to do it, the military households in the field will do it brilliantly.
They enjoyed treatment that they could not enjoy in Jiangnan. They had cars when they went out and a group of disciples to wait on them when they entered. You must know that although all dynasties have said that they are based on agriculture since ancient times, in fact, farmers are only the servants of the imperial courts of all dynasties.
The urinal is held in the mouth of the peasant when it is used, and when it is not used, it is used to make trouble for the peasants.
Although there are hundreds of farmers, their talents have long since withered away. With the establishment of Zhenhai City, these agricultural experts flocked to southern Liaoning with their servants, relatives and friends.
Their arrival has greatly prospered the economy of Zhenhai City, because although these people are not big shots in Jiangnan, where rich people are everywhere, in Liaonan, they are super rich with super strong purchasing power.
In addition to the two distinctive brothels in the Ning Haijun Barracks, Fang Yizhi was in southern Liaoning, and Chen Zhenhui, a member of the society, also had a conflict with his wife Tang, so he went to hide out. Therefore, Li Zhenli, Chen Zhenhui's confidante, also followed Chen Zhenhui.
Arrive at Zhenhai City.
Li Zhenli came, and Li Xiangjun, who was only nine years old and became one of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai just a few years later, also came to Zhenhai City.
It is these noble princes from the south of the Yangtze River who come here one after another, some for study tours, some because they admire the fame of the fourth prince of Fushe, and some because of Li Zhenli's reputation. Whatever the reason, it is difficult to find a high-class guest room in Zhenhai City.
.
Li Zhenli took a look and found that Zhenhai City was not like other places in the south of the Yangtze River. If you wanted to open a brothel, you had to have someone from both the black and white circles. But the problem was that Zhenhai City was different. There were no gangsters here, not even beggars. You could do any business.
, you can take the initiative to pay taxes to the Ninghai Naval Military Affairs Bureau.
Li Zhenli figured out these problems and immediately took action. On the one hand, she asked the girls under her to clean up from Jiangnan and hurried to Liaonan.
Although she makes a lot of money in Jiangnan, the problem is that 40% of the money she earns goes to Nanjing Wei Guogong's mansion, 30% goes to Nanjing Jinyiwei, and 10% needs to support the turtle master, helpers, handymen and girls under her. She herself
The money I got was only 10%.
By the time the Liaodong Management Committee was established, there were already eleven brothels of various sizes in Zhenhai City, and only three of them took the initiative to pay taxes...
After the establishment of the Liaodong General Taxation Administration, the first thing Cheng Shijie did was to formulate personal income tax, which was also the first tax in Liaodong.
In fact, the current income gap in Liaodong is already very huge. Not counting Yang Yuniang, who has the highest income, Zhou Yandong, who has the second highest income, has a legal income of more than 3,600 taels of silver, while the lowest-income textile worker
The annual salary of female workers is only seventy-two taels of silver, and the difference is five hundred times. Even compared to ordinary Ning navy soldiers, the benefits plus military pay, which of course cannot be counted as the military reward of beheading, are only eighteen taels of silver.
That's also two hundred times.
This is mainly because when Ning Haijun was founded, a part-time job was an income. Although the salary for each job was not outrageous, a big butler like Zhou Yandong was in charge of too many things. Adding up, his income
That's quite astonishing.
Cheng Shijie stipulated that the starting point for personal income tax in Liaodong is thirty-six taels of silver. In this way, there are not many individuals who need to pay taxes in Liaodong. All Ning navy soldiers do not need to pay taxes, only the hundred-level general
Officers above need to pay taxes, and only factory managers above foreman need to pay personal income tax. If they are hawkers, they basically do not need to pay taxes. A shop that can earn more than thirty-six taels of silver has a certain scale.
.
However, commercial tax and personal income tax are different. In any case, Zhou Yandong, the big butler, needs to pay tax, and it is the top 55%. He needs to pay 3,600 taels of silver a year.
Ninety-eight taels of silver.
Although this personal income tax seems to be a lot, it is actually not much. The Liaodong Management Committee needs to spend money in many places, and this is also the main means to adjust the gap between the rich and the poor.
Of course, Zhou Yandong is not actually the person who pays the most taxes. The person who pays the most taxes is actually Cheng Shijie, whose tax payment is in the millions, followed by Yang Yunniang, whose tax payment is more than 6,000 taels.
The third person with the most people is Jin Qiaoer, and the fourth person with the most people is Zhou Yandong.
Originally, Zhou Yandong had a lot of opinions, but before it was his turn to get angry, he heard that Cheng Shijie was going to pay taxes, and the amount of taxes to be paid was very huge. This made him feel balanced.
At the same time, he also understood Cheng Shijie's intention. Cheng Shijie took the lead, what else could he do? Not to mention paying more taxes, but in fact, when Dengzhou Wei was the official of hundreds of households, even if Zhou Yandong took the
He could squeeze out a hundred households and squeeze out a thousand taels of silver.
Although there are no real poor people in southern Liaoning at this time, even ordinary military households with almost no cash, the problem is that any military household has more than 100 acres of land in this year's reclamation, which means that,
After autumn, they will have money.
Even if Cheng Shijie lowers the price of food to five taels of silver per stone, their per capita household income will easily exceed fifty taels of silver. This is not Cheng Shijie's bragging. As long as they have hands and feet, food and clothing will not be a problem at all.
Of course, if you want to increase your income, there are many channels. There are more channels for getting rich or rising in southern Liaoning than anywhere else in the Ming Dynasty. The lowest-paid workers in the factory must be new workers who have not passed the probation period. After three months of passing the probation period,
, you can get equal pay for the same position. If you want to earn more, there are two ways, one is to work overtime, and the other is to study skills hard. Craftsmen with different skills have different incomes. The lowest apprenticeship
Compared with the highest-level senior technician, the salary gap is as much as 42 times.
If you don’t want to work hard and don’t think much about technology, then don’t complain about the unfair distribution mechanism.
The death penalty has basically been abolished in southern Liaoning.
The reform through labor in Liaonan is very humane, because the higher the sentence, the more serious the crime. If someone is reformed through labor for twenty or fifteen years, they will definitely be sent to the most painful and tiring quarry or coal mine.
Those with five to ten years will be sent to iron ore or lime mines, those with three to five years will be sent to cement plants or salt fields, and those with less than three years will be sent to road construction or ditch digging.
Those with more than one year and less than three years will be sent to the steel factory to serve as apprentices. If they perform well, their prison terms can be shortened. If they are less than one year, they will go to other factories and have the opportunity to serve as apprentices. When their apprenticeship is over, they can get
You will receive a formal salary, or you will become an ordinary military household in the military camp. You will have your own private property and freedom.
There are also three to five days or half a month of reform through labor, which is mainly for crimes such as poor hygiene, open defecation, or fighting. They are usually sent to clean public toilets or streets.
However, when the Liaodong General Administration of Taxation was established, the first director of the General Administration of Taxation was Yang Yunniang, who was in charge of the banking system. Of course, Yang Yuniang's main job was to calculate taxes and calculate tax rates. The real tax collector was Chen Guodong.
He and his Supervisory Military Road Administration established the Liaodong General Taxation Administration with the Supervisory Military Road Administration as their team. This also shows that Cheng Shijie knows people well and makes good use of them.
As Cheng Shijie's power increases, the power of the Supervisory Military Road Administration also increases, and there is a tendency to become a Jinyiwei in Liaodong. Let the people in charge of the internal supervision system handle tax collection. It will be very difficult to evade taxes in Liaodong in the future.
Unless you have the ability to corrupt Cheng Shijie's Military Supervision Department, this job, unless Cheng Shijie replaces someone to manage the Military Supervision Department, with the current personnel of the Ning Navy, whoever dares to betray Cheng Shijie does not even need to go out to the military law team, ordinary soldiers will kill them
They were tied up and sent to Cheng Shijie.
…
While Cheng Shijie was busy establishing the Liaodong Management Committee, Fu Zonglong returned to the capital. Fu Zonglong went to Liaonan as the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, the young emperor.
On the day Fu Zonglong returned to the capital, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't wait to summon Fu Zonglong.
Fu Zonglong actually did not need to meet the Holy Spirit. The results of his trip to Jinzhou had already been submitted in written form, not only to him, but also to more than a hundred officials who accompanied him.
Most of these officials in the capital were poor, but Cheng Shijie gave them a lot of money. Although there was no real money or silver, there were many good things, including worthless crystal bracelets, crystal necklaces, crystal jewelry, including transparent glass cups.
They were all given away as favors. In addition, there were also specialties from southern Liaoning.
As the saying goes, take advantage of others' softness and take advantage of others' shortcomings. These capitals have finally found the opportunity to go out on official business, so they will naturally not break the rules. You must know that other officials or themselves may leave the capital again, and officials from other places will give them gifts.
, just expecting them to say good things.
If you don’t say nice things after receiving gifts, then who will give them gifts in the future?
In this case, these work reports, no matter whether they can win the young emperor or not, are all good words without exception.
"Old minister, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"Fu Qing is exempt from the courtesy!"
The young emperor said impatiently: "Come, please sit down and serve tea!"
As soon as Fu Zonglong saw this posture, he knew the intention of Emperor Chongzhen. He wanted to hear the detailed situation. Fu Zonglong first told Emperor Chongzhen what he had seen when he entered Jinzhou.
Gao Qiqian, who had just received a generous gift from Cheng Shijie, also came over. He was also worried that old man Fu Zonglong would spoil his good deeds and say bad things about Cheng Shijie.
He didn't want Cheng Shijie to fall. When Cheng Shijie killed three scholars and was impeached by the officials, Gao Qiqian was very worried and secretly cursed Cheng Shijie for not knowing how to do things. With Cheng Shijie's identity and Cheng Shijie's power, if he wanted to clean up
Three talented people, isn’t that simple?
Considering that Cheng Shijie was promoted too quickly, Gao Qiqian thought that Cheng Shijie had no experience in being an official, so he personally wrote a long letter to Cheng Shijie. In the letter, Gao Qiqian told Cheng Shijie.
As an official of the Ming Dynasty, if you want to punish someone, you can use two methods. Find out the opponent's ability problem. The ability problem is very simple. Find the fault within the other party's jurisdiction, prove that the other party's ability is not good, and directly let the other party get out.
.
Nothing wrong? Just kidding, it's not easy to manage a place well, but it's too easy to mess up a place. Just spend a small amount of money to send a few people over to instigate it, and trouble will happen.
The second routine is to target the other party's style. The problem is relatively damaging. In later generations, it would be to expose the other party, Bao Xiaosan, for having an affair. In ancient times, you could not do this. In ancient times, three wives and four concubines were the norm. Bao Xiaosan still
Isn't it normal?
Gao Qiqian is an eunuch. What he means is to seize the other person's moral character. For example, if the emperor dies and during the national mourning period, officials are not allowed to drink and have fun for a hundred days, and marriage is prohibited. Drinking and having fun is too simple.
Now, pick the other party’s relatives and friends. Regardless of whether they have this issue or not, impeach them first and then talk about it.
Every official has elders who have not graduated from the fifth service. After becoming an official, they will definitely ignore these elders. If they are on the line, this is unfilial.
In later generations, it was just a matter of logic, but in the Ming Dynasty, it was a matter of moral character. If an official had bad conduct, he would be looked down upon by everyone, and his future would be basically ruined.
However, the funny thing is that the conduct of most officials in the late Ming Dynasty was not very good, and those with good conduct had less beef than beef noodles.
