The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 238: Taxation is the core issue

"Taxation. The widows forget about this." King Qin said.

"My lord, this issue of taxation is extraordinary. It is not the king's order that can be levied. There is also an intermediary issue of taxation." Shang Wen said.

"Taxes, what kinds of taxes are levied, how much are levied, and who are levied." Shang Wen said.

"Oh. Is there so much attention to taxation?" Qin Wang asked.

"Yes, first of all, a special taxation committee, or an organization like a parliament, should be established." Shang Wen suggested.

"Committee, parliament.?" King Qin said.

"Yes. The members of this council come from all directions. For example, the king, you can send royals, and the people can voluntarily choose celebrities who pay taxes, or people with prestige in the local area. In this way, taxation can be negotiated. "Shang Wen said.

"Why do we need to discuss it. The widows levy taxes. Is there any reason?" King Qin asked.

"My lord, this taxation is a double-edged sword. It can both kill the enemy and hurt yourself. It can both rejuvenate and subdue the country, so I have to treat it with caution." Shang Wen said respectfully.

"Expropriation is too heavy and the people’s burden is too heavy, so the country will need to spend a lot of time in the future to make up for the people’s burden. It will affect the normal operation of the country. The adverse impact will not be so, if it has already seriously threatened the people’s Survival, even an elite teacher like Daqin, I am afraid it will be difficult to extinguish the fire of people's anger. Therefore, this problem has to be solved by taxation and negotiation." Shang Wen said.

"En." King Qin nodded. Without speaking, King Qin also needs to weigh the pros and cons.

"My king. This parliament is the place where the taxation negotiation system is established, and it is also a way to supervise tax collection and promote the people's sense of responsibility towards the entire Daqin." Shang Wen doesn't care what King Qin thinks. But these must be said.

"With this parliament, Daqin can designate a fiscal plan, so how much money is collected and how much money is spent. The people have a number in their hearts, and they can plan ahead of time for what they say. Draft a financial plan and how much military spending will be spent on infrastructure construction. How much does it cost. In this way, the funds will be used more effectively?"

"Everyone knows that they are willing to pay taxes. For those who do not pay taxes, special tax authorities can be established. Special supervision and taxation. In this way, those officials who use their power to obtain illegal income will be punished. Yes. I can say that there is no harm in Da Qin," Shang Wen said.

"Widow, think again. Think again." Qin Wang waved his hand. What else does Shang Wen want to say. But seeing King Qin's refusal, Shang Wen had no choice but to say no more. Shangwen understands that more than 70% of King Qin will not agree. Because kingship depends on huge taxes. Privileges are based on taxes. The reason why Europe protects the capitalist revolution is because of the taxation issue. Taxation has become the entry point of a sharp contradiction. It is also a confluence of contradictions.

Rapidly developing business activities can get a lot of money. However, contradictions ensue. If you have more money, you have to pay taxes. With more taxes, the royal family will have more desires. The growth rate of money cannot keep up with the growth of human desire. The former requires time to accumulate, while the latter only requires delusion. Sooner or later, contradictions will occur.

If you have more desires, you will try to handle things you can't do if you want to, and open up new territory. The magnificent palace. There is also a gorgeous royal life. Money is spent like water. Naturally, it will soon go short. In order to make up for it, taxes will be levied wildly. The public can recognize the tax collection for the first time. The second time, people can complain, but the third time, the fourth time. The people will be angry and return to color. Everyone pays taxes. Why is the right obtained cannot be guaranteed.

Dissatisfaction will flood the entire country. Contradictions will break out. Britain can chop off the king's head. The French can also. Americans can say no to the arrogant British. The Chinese can be against the royal family, the royal family. Take the bloodiest retaliatory action.

The root of all this. Who can make it clear. Problems will occur, and only a solution that can be mitigated by both parties can be adopted. But not yet. King Qin would not agree yet. Maybe it's because I went too anxiously.

Shang Wen began to rethink his approach. Some ideas are indeed a bit advanced, such as the issue of arms exports mentioned repeatedly before. King Qin repeatedly refused. But when this problem develops to a certain extent. King Qin naturally thought of the root cause of the problem. Take necessary measures.

For example, taxation issues. Shangwen began to feel that he was a little anxious. This time it was indeed anxious to leave. Before taxation has started, a council was established in advance to manage and control taxation. King Qin hadn't enjoyed the fun of taxation, but suddenly there was an institution that restricted his rights. Such a thing. The resistance is naturally great. On the other hand, what we have done before is often planning ahead before things start. How is the result. The plan can't keep up with the reforms. Many things happen naturally. Some of his own practices are suspected of hindering its development.

"The king, the minister thinks. You can first set up a special agency to manage taxation. This agency is directly managed by the king. In this way, the king can overcome the superimposed effects of local layers. This will lead to a lot of waste of money." Shang Wen After figuring it out. Take immediate steps to divert the topic. And plan to start to take one step, watch one step.

King Qin was also thinking about some of Shangwen's ideas. The idea is very good, but in practice, there are big drawbacks. At the same time, it does not conform to the wishes of the widows.

"En." King Qin nodded.

"What did the sir say, the widow thinks too deeply about the problem." Then King Qin responded.

"The king can set up a special tax authority. It is used to collect taxes specifically, so that it can avoid the occurrence of local deductions and secret fraud." Shang Wen can only propose a compromise. First, the power of fiscal taxation will be directly returned to the central government. In this way, it is possible to effectively control a series of small measures taken by the local government on the taxation issue.

However, the taxation of taxes belongs to the central government. Such measures have not been resolved in ancient times. The collection of taxes often becomes an opportunity for local officials to make a fortune. It is precisely because of this. Only local governments will have problems with massive taxation. And Shang Wen's move will solve this problem in one fell swoop. tax. Local governments only have the right to govern. The power to levy taxes is completely returned to the central government.

"En. Very good. The widow is right." After Wang Qin thought. Approve immediately.

In this way, it can be regarded as a small improvement. At the very least, local governments will not levy arbitrary taxes for clever names.
