Chapter 1037: Children Pay Taxes (Part 1)

Because he was in charge of taxation, he noticed the emperor's decree as soon as it came out. A few days ago, he lamented how big this incident was.

When did the officials and lords in the court pay commercial taxes?

So when his colleagues said that some officials went to the palace to collect taxes in person, he knew what their plan was. It was nothing more than trying to make King Rong resist the tax and then confront the emperor.

But the key is that people have been paying taxes.

The little official sighed, "Who doesn't know that King Rong has a bad temper, and it's useless even if he is the king of heaven. You don't avoid people, why do you still go up to them? Isn't this looking for abuse?"

The colleague turned pale with shock, "You said the palace pays taxes?"

The little official nodded heavily. Speaking of which, he discovered this incident by accident. At that time, he told his colleagues that it was a strange thing. The king of Zanrong County is dedicated to the public. After all, who will pay taxes when he becomes an official and does business?

But every year when the account is recorded, the properties of Rongjun Wangfu pay taxes honestly. He also wondered if they did business in the name of the Wangfu, but seeing that Fengshou Grain Shop also pays taxes every year, he can only use this After all, Rongjun Wangfu is a good citizen who abides by the law!

Seeing that Shangfeng didn't respond much after the account book was handed in, he didn't give a special reminder, but now it seems that the tax urging has come to the palace, and the people above obviously don't know about it, at least those who went to the palace to urge taxes must not Know.

At this time, the Minister of the Household Department and several servants were staring at the account book with livid faces, "The property of the Wangfu has been paying taxes, why didn't Wang Zhen report it? No, who urged Liu Yu to go to the Wangfu to collect taxes?"

Even if Qi Haoran didn't pay the tax, if he dared to push him to confront the emperor, wouldn't that be courting death?

Just when the emperor and Rongjun king are stupid?

The left servant of the household department took a deep breath, and said: "Several nobles have shot, and several civil servants of the fourth and fifth ranks in the court have contacted Liu Yu, and someone took the opportunity to transfer Wang Zhen away. He just left. Liu Yu then took people to the palace to collect taxes."

Hubu Shangshu sneered, "He thinks that this move will please the adults in the court, so even if he is angered by King Rongjun, there will be a way out? It's just a daydream!"

Then he supported his forehead with a headache again, "The emperor is too anxious."

The Minister of the Household Department also belongs to the group of people who do not pay taxes, but it does not mean that he does not support this decree.

Most of the wealth is in the hands of the upper class, but most of the treasury money is taken from the middle and lower class people. Although he also feels sorry for the money handed over, he knows that the emperor's move is beneficial to the country and the people.

But he felt that the reform should be carried out step by step. Now Daqi has stabilized and is no longer as chaotic as it was when the country was first founded. will cause a backlash.

The knotted places should be straightened out one by one. Such haste is not beneficial to the country.

"My lord, Mr. Zuoxiang invites you to see him."

Well, although this person is smiling all day long, his methods are also vicious. As soon as he got the news, this person came to his door.

Hubu Shangshu can only go to see Zuoxiang.

The first time Rong Xuan saw him, he said: "Since the knife is down, let's make a quick decision. Hesitating is a bad thing. Fortunately, they are stupid enough to find King Rong by mistake. You also know your temper, this matter must not be good, you and the people in the household department should prepare, not only will the commercial tax be re-set this time, but I am afraid that the tax owed will also be pursued."

"Master Zuoxiang, the envoys of Dajin and Xixia are still waiting in the capital, and the matter of negotiating the market has not yet been negotiated. This will increase the burden of negotiating business taxes and recovering tax arrears. The officials of the household department can't do it even if they have superpowers."

Rong Xuan nodded with a smile: "I know, that's why I sent you a helper. The subordinate officials transferred from all over the country will soon arrive in Beijing. Moreover, the emperor decided to add Enke, and then the people will be close to your household department. Twice a year If it doesn't work in one year, it will always go well in three or four years."

The Minister of the Household Department knew that as soon as the matter of recovering tax arrears happened, he became the target of public criticism.

Little did he know, someone would soon share the pressure for him and divert everyone's hatred.

Knowing that doing business requires paying taxes, the children excitedly found out their account books for Mu Yangling to calculate, "Mom, can you see how much tax we have to pay?"

After the tax urging incident happened, Mu Yangling seriously stated that she was a good citizen who paid taxes according to the law. She almost blushed and asked Qi Haoran, "Am I the kind of person who evades taxes?"

Qi Haoran shook his head again and again, he just felt that his wife was too law-abiding, and even started to pay taxes in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he didn't know how much cheaper it would be for Emperor Jingyan.

It's not that Mu Yangling doesn't know that dignitaries and officials don't have to pay taxes, but she can't get over the hurdle in her heart. Although business taxes are a little heavier in this era, she still has to abide by the law.

It was only then that Mu Yangling discovered that she had taught the children to respect the old, love the young, and abide by the law, but she didn't seem to teach them to pay taxes. All the children had money-making businesses in their hands.

So, she called the children and told them about the importance of taxes and our obligation to pay taxes according to the law, and then asked, "Do the math, how much tax did you steal?"

The children were taken aback for a moment, they immediately divided up the money they made, so they didn't even think about paying taxes, so Xiaoxiong asked, "Are there any discounts for children?"

Mu Yangling tilted his head and said, "No according to Daqi's tax law."

Xiao An began to calculate how much money they had to spend from their pockets, while Tiger Head and Little Lion said excitedly: "Mother, after paying taxes, we are also adults. After all, we have all contributed to the country's construction."

Mu Yangling nodded reluctantly, "If you don't make mistakes, then I can barely count you as adults."

Hutou said seriously to Little Bear, "Brother, we have to pay taxes."

The little lion continued: "We must set an example."

Xiao An threw the ledger aside and came up with an idea, "Elder brother is so reluctant to pay taxes, so others must also be reluctant. Why don't we help Uncle Huang persuade those people to pay taxes honestly."

Both the tiger head and the little lion felt good, so Xiaoan pulled Qi Wensu to the front and said, "You are the second prince, so you should be our representative, so that they can know that this is the attitude of the royal family."

"..." Little Bear declared solemnly, "I don't want to pay taxes."

The four children ignored him and got together to discuss how to "persuade" everyone to pay the business tax.

Little Xiong continued: "I just want to know if there is any discount for children, because there is a discount for children on the population tax, and they only need to pay half of the tax..."

The four children continued to ignore him, and had initially finalized the principle of leading by example first, then reasoning, and not resorting to violence.

Mu Yangling was also full of anger because of the previous incident. Hearing this, he rolled his eyes and gave advice to the four children.

Little Xiong is already eight or nine years old, he is considered an older child, he is not easy to show up, but the four children are young, they will be tolerated for anything they do, but what they do is very correct, obviously they can guide the direction of the wind.

Coupled with Qi Haoran's thunderous move, it's hard to believe that he can't beat those people.
