Back to Datang Jianzuo City

Chapter 474 New Administrative System Meeting
Li Tai, Li Ke, Du He, Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chuliang, Yuchi Baolin, Yan Liben, Yan Lide, Yin Zhiming, Bai Xiang (Lao Bai), Xiao Qing, Yu He and Zou Bingli brought by Du He, 13 people plus Ding Yi gathered together.

Li Tai and the others probably guessed Ding Yi's purpose, while the others were at a loss.

It was the first time since the establishment of the new city that such a full-stack meeting was held.

The meeting place was in the legal department. People sat on both sides of the long conference table, and Ding Yi sat at the head.

As soon as he came up, he asked his personal bodyguard and secretary to send the plan written by Ding Yi in the past two days to everyone.

Seeing that everyone had received the plan, Ding Yi stood up and propped his hands on the table, and said seriously: "Everyone, two days ago, His Majesty decreed that Shiping should be self-governing."

Everyone knows about this matter now, and relevant news has also come from Chang'an.

"As a city completely independent from Datang, why can Xincheng be autonomous? That's because I suggested to His Majesty that Xincheng should be built into a completely different city, a city with a new direction of development and sustainable development! "

"The day I received the imperial decree, I was still a little dizzy, because the new city does not have a complete administrative system. Moreover, everything in the new city is built on the Junfeng Group!"

Now, the few people who didn't understand also understood what Ding Yi meant. The current situation shows that Xincheng needs to build an administrative system completely different from Datang.

"The administrative units that need to be established, except for the existing ones, I have written the rest of the administrative units that need to be established in the plan. You can take a look."

After finishing speaking, he said: "Xiao Qing and Yu He don't need to read this proposal."

Everyone looked at Ding Yi with puzzled eyes. What does this mean?
The two brothers Yan Liben realized that there was no precedent for a woman serving as an official in the Tang Dynasty.

"Everything in Xincheng relies on the Junfeng Group, but...now Xincheng is self-governing, which also means that this city has become a member of Datang. Then...it must be separated from Junfeng Group!"

segmentation!

The Junfeng Group built the new city into what it is now, and now they want to divide it?

"Master..." Yu He was unhappy, but Ding Yi stopped her before she could speak.

"The next job for you and Xiao Qing is to do the division. This is the map of Xincheng. All the land occupied by Junfeng Group in the boundary of Xincheng will be calculated according to the average price of the last auction. After that, it will be divided The cost of the urban management team used in the construction of the new city, the construction costs of several administrative units, and the cost of road repairs in various places in the new city, more refunds and less compensation, calculate a general ledger, and hand it over here."

For the division of Junfeng Group and Xincheng, the land occupied must be calculated first, and then the money should be paid to the administrative unit.

All the funds used by the Junfeng Group for road construction can be taken away.

Yan Liben and his elder brother looked at each other and asked, "Master Hou, how about the workers who are now used to build roads and build cities!"

Yo!Hearing this, Ding Yi had no choice but to look at him differently, thinking clearly!
"Don't worry! Let's take a look at the Land and Resources Bureau in this plan first, and you will be clear!"

After finishing talking, Ding Yi was not in a hurry, he just waited for them to finish reading.

The meeting started after breakfast, and did not finish reading the plan until it was almost lunch time!
After reading it, they looked at Ding Yi differently!
This is an administrative system completely different from Datang's current system. Such a complete and seemingly effective system was really created by Ding Yi?

The administrative units in the plan can already be compared with the three provinces and six ministries of the Tang Dynasty, with both shortcomings and excesses.

It's just that this plan is only a preliminary framework, and it is still used in a city.If it is improved, it can be compared to the current system.

It's just that something is missing in it, which makes people look a little strange.

The officials here only have their salaries, and even the most senior city lords only have their salaries!

Moreover, in this plan, there is no mention of the obligations of the common people and issues such as labor.

"Ding Yi, this plan...?" Li Ke asked with some concern.

"If you have any disagreement, you can raise it, and we will discuss it together!" Of course, Ding Yi would not think that the plan he made is the best, and everyone needs to approve it.

"People in Xincheng don't have to do hard labor?" Li Ke asked.

Others also wanted to ask, but they all waited for Ding Yi's answer before asking.

"No, the labor system is abolished. But it doesn't mean that the people have no obligation to provide services for the city. They also live in this city and enjoy all the benefits of this city. Then they must bring benefits to the city!"

"So, the personal income tax mentioned by the tax department, the annual food tax from the Ministry of Food, and the land tax and store tax. These are what the people in this city need to provide!"

Li Tai wondered: "Replace everything with taxes? Will the taxes be too heavy?"

Such problems have occurred in previous dynasties, so they have to be considered.

"No, there is a standard for taxation. Ordinary people only have food tax, and personal income tax needs to meet a certain standard to be collected! For merchants, although the tax is more, it is less than what they get. Xincheng gave They give every opportunity and they deserve these taxes!"

Du He asked: "Then if these merchants do business in other states and counties, how should they be taxed? The plan mentions that the tax is based on the total annual income!"

"Don't worry about this. After their shops are registered with the Xincheng Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the profits will be counted in the Xincheng. After they go out, they don't have to pay taxes. I will write this in the memorial and present it to His Majesty!"

As long as the shops are established in Xincheng, they must be registered with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of Xincheng, and their taxes only need to be paid to Xincheng.

As for whether it is their branch, it doesn't matter.

Since autonomy, all this needs to be prepared.

"Master Hou, there is a clear division of official ranks in Xincheng, and their salaries are higher than those of Tang officials. But there are no other rewards among them. Will this be..." Yan Liben didn't go on with the rest of the sentence, but the meaning was very clear .There is still His Majesty's reward in court, but there is nothing in this new city.

"There is no need to worry about this. Let's take our time. When necessary, the City Lord's Mansion can issue medals. The medals are divided into several levels. The role of these medals can benefit future generations, and some copper coins can also be rewarded."

Yan Liben was speechless immediately, but isn't it too vulgar to do so?
If Ding Yi heard this, he would definitely tell him that everyone is layman, there is no need to be so elegant!

After thinking for a long time, Li Tai finally had a new question.

"Xincheng and Junfeng Group are separated, how can it have enough funds to operate the construction and management of the entire city?"
