Yang Tianci was pleased to take the ministers back to the palace to prepare to discuss major events. After all, it is now winter, and it will not be too long before the Chinese New Year. These things are still settled early, and these ministers are given some time to prepare, let them start their brains, think about how to implement them, and have any good suggestions.

Yang Tianci came to the Nuan Pavilion. The Nuan Pavilion was much smaller than the palace where the court was discussing, but there was nothing wrong with accommodating nearly a hundred people. It was already winter, and it was obviously not suitable in the original palace, it was too cold. Therefore, you will come to the Nuan Pavilion, where the charcoal is burnt in advance, which is relatively warm.

Today is even more special. It is no longer necessary to burn charcoal, just use the heater directly.

When I returned to the Nuan Pavilion, it was naturally very warm. "It's really cold this winter, or it's warm in the house. Let's all sit down now. There are not many things to discuss today."

Here, it has been cleaned up and can sit on the floor completely. Dozens of officials have sat down. Yang Tianci is sitting opposite. Of course, there is a small wooden table in front of Yang Tianci. There is tea on it. Other people are not like this. Good treatment.

"The first thing today, the matter of the Firearms Bureau, I believe everyone has no opinion? If not, then wait for the Spring Festival and start construction immediately."

Wen Xiangyan Wen Yu also said, "The artillery is a national event. It is an important weapon to resist the invasion of the Northern Plains. It should be vigorously manufactured, and the old minister has no opinion."

"I have no comments."

Yang Tianci was also quite gratified, "Okay, the artillery thing is over, let's talk about the second thing, that is the road construction. The concrete road is supposed to be known to everyone, and the benefits of this road. Therefore, I plan to extend the road towards the state capitals and cities in all directions. How do the public think that all connected cities are connected?"

Hu Wei, the minister of the household, said, "This move is very expensive, and the project may be difficult to complete within a year."

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Qian Tong also agreed with the animal husbandry, "This road construction cannot be accomplished overnight, and the south of the Dawei Dynasty is even more river-filled, which may not be convenient."

"Anyway, the road still needs to be built, even though it may be a little difficult in the south, but the northern part of the city should be built first, and it will be emitted from the capital to start road repair."

He Wangzhong also issued a voice of opposition, "Your Highness is not allowed.

Indeed, building roads is like digging a canal or building a grand palace. They all require people, and most of them are farming people. How can they have the energy to build roads?

"There is no need to worry about this He Shangshu. The road construction method is to let the people who are more leisure to build the road, and the court will pay the wages. You can even recruit some people on the spot and give money by the day. Of course, If you can go to build roads for a long time, you can give money monthly or a little more."

"This is a very good move. The minister seconded."

auzw.com "The post is also not good because of the bad road. But when the road is repaired, there are more people and the correspondence will be more convenient. It is definitely beneficial. Yes, so the minister seconded."

He Wangzhong still did not give up, and continued, "Your Majesty, even if this does not work, but it is a fact that money is hurt. Road repairs require a large number of people. This is all expenditure. Your Majesty already wants to make artillery, now If the road is built again, I am afraid that it will consume the treasury and make it empty."

"How about the national treasury, I still know more clearly about this book than He Shangshu. The treasury has entered the treasury in recent years, and the surplus grain and money are sufficient. Only the expenses for artillery and road repairs can still be retained for use. Money for disaster relief."

He Wangzhong continued to argue, "No one knows what kind of natural disasters will happen next year. Can Dong Shangshu be sure that the rest are enough to cope? The treasury is the root of the country, and it should not be taken lightly in case next year. Whatever happened or the disaster, the people who suffer are all people."

Yang Tianci is also used to listening to the quarrel between the two. In this part, it is also time to talk.

"Dong Shangshu is right, but He Shangshu's worries are not unreasonable. The treasury is very important. But don't worry about He Shangshu, the treasury is not only for expenditures, there must be storage."

"The first thing is the post. The current role of the post is still too little. Therefore, when the post is used as an official, it will not be charged. However, when it is used for private use, it will be charged. Whether it is delivery, It’s still a short break, you can’t stay overnight, you can charge a small amount of money. However, public and private are clearly distinguished, and you must not forget your public because of private, of course, you must not reveal confidentiality.

"In this way, it is totally a small income, which can allow the post to have some money to maintain its operation, and the amount of money paid by the court will also be reduced."

"In addition to this, there is another matter of commercial tax. This matter has been delayed for a long time. I want to start collecting commercial tax from next year."

This commercial tax has been discussed before, but it has not been discussed. In the end, it only took the salt and iron in the hands of the court. It took a lot of work to do this. The salt merchants almost made trouble. However, this emperor Yang Tianci was not vegetarian, and soon he was sent to settle down.

Now that commercial tax is re-raised, there are very few who want to oppose it, so He Wangzhong naturally still opposes it. After all, he has a lot of shops in his house, and he earns a lot of money. If he pays taxes, it is like the pain of cutting meat from him.

He Wangzhong gritted his teeth and opposed, "His Royal Highness, the issue of business tax has never been heard of before. This sets a precedent. I am afraid that many people are opposed to His Majesty, so I have something to do with it."

"Under the world, all are the homeland of the Dawei dynasty. For the people who work hard every year, the harvest is not much, but they still have to pay taxes. And these rich and wealthy families have a monthly income of more than one year. Why? It is not taxable? Except for some businessmen who donate money and materials in times of crisis, what do most other businessmen do for the country and the people? Is it impossible to collect taxes? Or that they are not from my Dawei Dynasty What about the people?"

Yan Wenyu spoke again at this time, "Your Majesty said very much that the method of taxation according to the amount of income has been discussed before. This method is very good. The more benefits you get in the Dawei Dynasty, naturally you must be more grateful to the court. Yes. Because the court has a stable territory, because the court has a better life. The money is used by the people, and ultimately it is used by the people. The old minister feels that it is not necessary."

"The accounts of the Xihe Chamber of Commerce have been recorded, and the monthly income and expenditure are all in it. However, the relevant departments have not been found to collect taxes before. The old minister also asked the Shang Department Dong Shushu, who is afraid to collect it, and I cannot directly Give the money to your majesty. However, the money is already prepared, and until next year, the commercial tax will be levied, and the Xihe Chamber of Commerce will be the first to pay the tax."

After Li Ru returned to Beijing, he naturally wanted to participate in these. He had been listening before, but had not spoken. It is time to express his position now. "In Xihe City, small and large shops will collect taxes, and small shops will not charge much, and they can all accept it. Large families charge more, but for these large families, it’s just an antique. It’s not a few days before meals. How much. However, the accumulation of less and more is now used to rebuild the Xicheng District. Next year, even Xihecheng will be renewed. It is thought that the commercial tax must be collected."
