Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

"What do you think of this?"

"War-wearers, of course there are. The people, especially the border people, who wants to fight?" Zhao Ding's tone was very calm, and the expression on his face was also very easy-going, as if he had always been like this.

Even if Taishan is pressed down, he doesn't seem to frown.

This is Zhao Ding.

He is a qualified prime minister.

"However, war exhausters may not be the only ones who want peace."

"Oh, how do you say that?"

Zhao Ding continued: "I heard that there are many officials in this dynasty who are discussing the prosperity of the border trade. I also heard that there are many smugglers in order to avoid commercial taxes! Naturally, these people are unwilling to fight, and there is no profit in fighting."

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the courtroom immediately changed.

Liu Wangxian said: "What the great minister said is not unreasonable, but in the end the common people are still very war-weary. The court must be sympathetic to the people's feelings."

Zhang Shuye said: "Words and concessions are not necessarily sympathetic to the people's feelings. The Jin people are brutal and take the lead in breaking the peace."

"There are some Jin people who are unwilling to fight again." Wang Qian said, "The last time I fought against the Jin army was to recover Taiyuan, and that was when I took the initiative to send troops. If it weren't for this, the Jin people would not fight again, since the Jin people are already tired of fighting. , why do we have to fight again?"

Zhan Dafang said: "Your Majesty, at this time and at that time, the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom have been at peace for a hundred years, and the Song and Jin Dynasties have also been at peace for a hundred years. Why do we have to fight again?"

At this time, Gao Qiu came out, and Gao Qiu said with a smile: "Your Majesty loves the people like a son, so he will naturally be sympathetic to the people, but Zhan Yushi said this, his heart is damnable!"

"Why did Captain Gao say such a thing?"

Gao Qiu said: "Everyone, did you know that Hu Yuzhong, a doctor of the official department, went to the palace to meet the saint yesterday evening?"

Everyone froze for a moment and stopped talking.

Who doesn't know this, he represents everyone.

"What did Captain Gao want to say?"

"Hu Yuzhong, like you all, hopes that the court will make peace and not talk about war lightly." A flower-like smile bloomed on Gao Qiu's face, "But this person has other thoughts."

Everyone continued to fall silent.

"Does Zhan Yushi not want to know?"

"I'm not familiar with Hu Yuzhong."

"Unfamiliar?" Gao Qiu laughed, "But why did Hu Yuzhong say that you instructed him to enter the palace to meet and make peace?"

Zhan Dafang said calmly: "Taiwei Gao must have evidence, without evidence, and spewing blood at others, isn't it corrupting the court? Everyone is like this, and there is still a law to rule the law? This is contempt for the emperor!"

"Zhan Yushi, don't be in a hurry." Gao Qiu continued, "We found out a large amount of tea smuggling in Hebei at Hu Yuzhong's house, but we just don't know if there is anyone else in it."

As soon as he said this, someone's expression changed.

"What's more noteworthy is that Hu Yuzhong's business company certificate is there, but he can't find it in the business company bureau. So, naturally, he doesn't have to pay taxes, and he doesn't know it." Gao Qiu glanced around and laughed, "It's just not Do you know if Zhan Yushi evaded taxes in there? Or, with such a lucrative business, no one wants to start a war with the Jinren again?"

Chapter 685 Whoever clears himself up?Then check it out! (first update)

Why did Zhao Guanjia introduce the "Commercial Society Law" to rebuild the commercial company system?

In the past era, there were no companies in the strict sense of future generations.

The first company was the Dutch East India Company created by the Dutch.

It is the beginning of social division of labor.

Later, Adam Smith published "The Wealth of Nations", which improved the theoretical basis of the social division of labor system.

Technological breakthroughs bring about an increase in productivity, while the systematization of the division of labor enables the widespread use of thoughtless technologies.

The most important organizational carrier in the systematization of division of labor is the company.

That is, the new trading company model launched by Zhao Ning. At present, Dasong Grain Storage and Tokyo Post are all new trading company models, with division of labor, systematization, self-financing, registration, and financial standardization.

From the perspective of the trading company itself, the division of labor can improve efficiency.

From the perspective of the country, reforming the original yamen as a commercial company and being self-responsible for its own profits and losses can save costs, improve efficiency, and make taxation relatively transparent.

All commercial companies in the private sector must be registered for more standardized management, including taxation.

However, Hu Yuzhong's trading company has a trading company certificate, but there is no registration record in the trading company bureau, which means that it is impossible for the tax department to know that there is such a trading company when collecting taxes.

But it made a lot of money.

In the past, the landlords tried to evade taxes by concealing their land properties.

Now these years, commercial dividends are coming, and the rich and powerful use their power to conceal the report.

This is not just as simple as establishing an interest chain with Jin Guo.

If the truce that has been said just now is for the livelihood of the people of the two countries, it is still at the macro narrative level, then the current tea smuggling and tax evasion directly pull this matter to the specific level.

Institutions and laws restrict specific things, and cannot reasonably restrict macro narratives.

For example, the powerful class harms the interests of the people. This is a macro narrative, and you cannot find documents on how to bring the "rich class" to justice in any part of the law and system.

However, when a business company of a certain powerful lord in the powerful class evades taxes and smuggles, it goes back to specific things, and there are laws to follow.

To govern a huge country, there must be laws to follow.

Apparently, the debate in today's court, from the grand narrative at the beginning, was pulled by Gao Li into specific things.

This smelled like something was going to happen.

Gao Qiu's question was too harsh, and Zhan Dafang was a little terrified when asked.

It seems that those who are unwilling to go to war have made a lot of money in it.

But it might be true.

"Hu Yuzhong's tax evasion and smuggling are his own mischief, so what have I got to do with it?" Zhan Dafang said.

"Then why did Hu Yuzhong say that you Zhan Yushi ordered him to go to the palace?"

"He has no evidence..." Zhan Dafang remained calm on the surface.

Gao Qiu continued: "Your Majesty, it seems that what Hu Yuzhong said last night was not sincerely for the country, but selfish..."

When he said this, it was equivalent to blocking the mouths of these people.

"and……"

"And what?" Zhao Ning asked.

"Besides, since it is private and Zhan Yushi is involved, is it possible to have more accomplices?"

"Gao Qiu! You spout blood!" Zhan Dafang was furious.

Gao Qiu glanced at Zhan Dafang and said, "Don't worry Zhan Yushi. I just said that it might be related to you, but I didn't say that it must be related. Doesn't this require follow-up verification? If it really has nothing to do with you, you didn't privately If you have trade with the Kingdom of Jin, let alone falsely register a trading company or evade taxes, then you are innocent! Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, how could you set off an innocent person at will?"

"This……"

Gao Lian's series of operations are really high-level conference textbook-level speech skills.

For a while, Liu Wangxian, Wang Qian and others were speechless.

The people from the admonition court jumped out immediately.

"Your Majesty! What Gao Taiwei said is absolutely true!" The speaker was Li Zhuo from the Admonition Court.

Before because of the Luoyang case, Li Yu stood up to speak for Li Chunyou and the others, but was caught and Zhao Ning pardoned him.

In fact, from that time on, Zhao Ning began to fortify Qin Hui.

He wants to use Qin Hui, but also guard against Qin Hui.

Li Zhuo continued: "Your Majesty, the commercial corporation involves the new law on commercial corporations, as well as the tax administration of the treasury. At present, the imperial court spends more money. If the tax evaders are not severely punished, and follow the example, wouldn't it be in danger of collapse?"

"Can Li Qing speak more clearly?" Zhao Ning looked puzzled.

Li Zhuo said: "This matter involves a lot, and Zhan Yushi should cooperate with the court's investigation!"

"Your Majesty! The minister was wronged..."

"Zhan Qing, don't panic. I believe you are innocent. You are just assisting the court in the investigation. Is it okay?"

"This……"

"Could it be that Zhan Yushi really has something?" Gao Qiu laughed.

Zhao Ning hurriedly said: "The one who cleans up is himself. Zhan Qing is not afraid of your investigation."

"Yes……"

Next, there are some clichés.

After the early court ended, Zhan Dafang, Wang Qian, and Liu Wangxian were invited by the Secretary of the Imperial City to drink tea before they had time to return to their yamen.

This incident immediately caused quite a stir in the officialdom.

Because this matter may be more complicated than imagined.

It may even involve factional struggles in the imperial court.

Not to mention that the factional struggles in the Great Song Dynasty are becoming more complicated, but the situation in Song Jinxia is obviously going in a more complicated direction.

After Wu Jie took Fuzhou, the army took a short rest. He left 1 horses for Guo Hao and asked Guo Hao to take over the opposite Fuzhou by crossing the Yellow River.

And he himself led the remaining more than 1 soldiers and horses to return to Taiyuan Mansion.

On the eighth day of May, Wu Jie received an urgent report from Taiyuan: the Jin army had arrived in Taiyuan City.

After receiving the news, instead of being in a hurry, Wu Jie changed the direction of his march.

Where is he going?

He plans to go to Daizhou!

That's right, since Wanyan Sali went to Taiyuan, he will go to Daizhou.

Wanyan Salihe didn't know that he could get away with it so quickly. Naturally, it was impossible to know that Wu Jie would be able to escape from Fuzhou to fight his Daizhou.

On the tenth day of the fifth lunar month, Wu Jie's victory in recovering Fuzhou was quickly placed on Zhao Guan's desk.

After learning the news, Zhao Ning excitedly walked back and forth in Wende Hall for a long time.

His brain turned rapidly.

"Is Yu Yunwen back?"

"Yu Yunwen should have gone south and will arrive in Hebei soon."

"Let him take a quick trip to Fugu to do an inspection. After the inspection, return to the capital. I want to have a detailed discussion with him about the market outside the Great Wall."

"Your Majesty, what about the Jin army besieging Taiyuan now?" Zhang Shuye asked.

"Wu Jie has already taken down the prefecture, so what are you worried about what the Jin army can do in Taiyuan?"

Chapter 686 Wu Jie: I'm a handsome hunter! (Second more)

On May [-]th, Taiyuan City.

Wang Xun, the Tutor of Taiyuan Mansion, arrived at the Jinjun camp, and saw Wanyan and said goodbye.

Wanyan Sali sat at the table drinking, and the surrounding Jin army generals were drinking and eating meat.

It may be because they are afraid of the heat, they didn't wear clothes.

The tattoo was exposed, looking tough and murderous.

Wang Xun was still a little scared, after all, he came to the Jinjun camp.

But he carried it hard, looking calm.

"My official is Wang Xun, the promoted official of Taiyuan Mansion. I wonder which general of Jin Kingdom?"

Wanyan Sali said in suffocated Chinese: "Send a small pusher to dedicate the city, are you looking down on me?"

Ah Buhan smiled and said, "Dutong, how about killing this Song official and using his head to boost the morale of our army?"

Hearing what Ah Buhan said, Wang Xun was even more frightened, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, but he was still struggling.

He said: "Song and Jin have signed a peace treaty, why do you want to go south to invade us without authorization?"

"Hey!" Ah Buhan yelled, "Shameless thing! It was obviously you who started it first!"

Wang Xun asked suspiciously, "Why did you say that?"

"That prefecture is my Dajin's territory, why did you send troops without authorization?"
