Chapter 686: Fan Baishi: Smash 30 Million Guan With The Forehand, And Another 30 Million Guan With T

Looking at the civil and military officials below who were so excited about more than 185.86 million kilograms of fine sea salt and more than 128.64 million kilograms of salted fish meat, Yan Changqing smiled. He smiled and further stimulated:

"In addition, in the next five years, coastal sea salt production bases and salted fish meat production bases will further expand."

"It is expected that in the next five years, the total annual production of sea salt will gradually increase to at least one billion jins per year."

"The total annual production of salted fish meat will also gradually increase to at least one billion catties per year."

"Of course, with the rapid increase in the production of sea salt and salted fish meat, the prices of sea salt and salted fish meat will also plummet rapidly in the future."

"However, even if the prices of sea salt and salted fish meat plummet rapidly in the future, the annual output of one billion jins of sea salt and the annual output of one billion jins of salted fish meat can still bring stability to the court of at least 30 million guan per year in the future. Revenue!!!"

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the court fell into a state of silence.

In addition to Ru Taisu, the Minister of Household Affairs, and other civil and military officials, although it is not known what the specific fiscal revenue of the imperial court is now.

But in their opinion, the imperial court's estimated annual fiscal revenue is only about 30 million yuan!!!

And now, in the future, the revenue from selling sea salt and salted fish meat alone may be equal to the imperial court's estimated revenue for a year!!!

And more importantly, this is not a windfall that will disappear after a while, but a steady stream of financial income that will be available every year in the future!!!

[His grandma, is it so profitable to sell sea salt and salted fish meat?!!]

[If I had known I would have sold sea salt and salted fish meat. Isn’t this more profitable than being an official?!!]

[Thirty million guan!!! Still a stable income of 30 million guan every year!!!]

[Isn’t this Fan Bai’s brain sick?!!]

[A huge amount of wealth comparable to the estimated total fiscal revenue of a country in one year was handed over to the court for free in such an understatement!!!]

[If you can just sell sea salt and salted fish meat and make money by yourself, then what’s the problem even if you are rich enough to rival the country!!!]

[No, even if Fan Bai keeps it for himself, he probably won’t be able to earn this money!!!]

[Yantie Guanying, even if he has hundreds of millions of kilograms of sea salt, he can’t sell it openly!!!]

[Once the illicit salt sales are discovered by the court, he will be directly inspected and confiscated by the court, and even he himself will not escape death!!!]

[So the best way is to cooperate with the court!!!]

[If you put it this way, then last year His Royal Highness King Zhou and Duke Xin went to the coast of the Ming Dynasty to observe the people's sentiments, appease the people's sentiments, and collect pirates and Japanese pirates. This was one of the conditions for Fan Bai's cooperation with the court, or with His Majesty?! !]

All the civil and military officials looked at Fan Bai in front of the royal steps of the Dan Palace with complicated expressions.

[Hiss, isn’t the imperial court expected to steadily increase its fiscal revenue by an additional 10 million yuan every year in the future?!!]

[But after five years, the imperial court will be able to steadily increase its fiscal revenue by at least 30 million yuan every year?!!]

[If this is added to the imperial court’s current estimated fiscal revenue of 40 million guan, wouldn’t the estimated annual fiscal revenue of the imperial court in the future be able to exceed 70 million guan and move towards an estimated fiscal revenue of 80 million guan?!! 】

[Even if there is an additional estimated fiscal revenue of 20 million yuan, then all the forced corvee recruitment of the people in the world can be completely replaced by the voluntary employment of the people!!!]

Ru Taisu, who is the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, made a quick calculation in his mind, and after getting the result, he couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, and looked at Fan Bai who was standing in front of the royal steps of the Dan Palace with a shocked look on his face, and the ones standing in front of him. Prince Zhu Biao on the imperial steps of Dan Palace.

He suddenly discovered that it was not impossible to completely abolish the corvee system and implement a work-for-service system.

With at least this additional estimated fiscal revenue of 30 million yuan, most of the forced labor of the common people in the world [actually can be replaced by the voluntary employment of the common people.

【Twenty million dollars!!!Twenty million dollars!!!Twenty million dollars!!!】

【Where can I squeeze out 20 million yuan?!!】

[Wait a minute, if the previous calculations by the Ministry of Revenue are correct, after last year's inventory, statistics, and verification of the number of acres of land in the whole world, the land and acres tax levied by the court this year should have increased by about 5 million yuan!!! 】

[In addition, according to the growth rate of commercial taxes last year, the imperial court’s collection of commercial taxes this year should also increase by an additional five million to about seven million Guan!!!]

[This all adds up to an estimated additional fiscal revenue of 10 million to 12 million yuan!!!]

[There is still a shortfall of 8 million to 10 million yuan in additional estimated fiscal revenue!!!]

[Should we discuss with His Majesty and change the current commercial tax ratio?!!]

[From ten taxes and one, to nine taxes and one, or eight taxes─?!!]

[Anyway, it looks like there is still a lot of room for exploitation in commercial tax!!!]

[As long as the proportion of commercial taxes collected is changed to eight taxes and one tax, then the missing additional estimated fiscal revenue of 8 to 10 million yuan [should be almost able to be collected!ㄖ!]

[Even if we can’t get it all together, the worst we can do is cut some of the budget for the other five unnecessary corvee films by then!!!]

[In this way, the imperial court will be able to completely abolish the current corvee system and implement a work-for-service system!!!]

When he thought of this, Ru Taisu became excited.

The reason why he firmly disagreed with the abolition of the corvee system and the implementation of the work-for-service system was the reason why.

The main reason is that even if all the imperial court's fiscal revenue is drained, it will not be enough to support the sky-high expenses of hiring people after completely abolishing the corvee system and implementing the work-for-service system.

If it is implemented forcibly, it will only cause the imperial court's financial plan to explode on the spot!!!

So for this reason, he even did not hesitate to admonish Prince Zhu Biao through death.

But now after careful calculation, I found that as long as an additional 20 million yuan of estimated fiscal revenue is collected, it is really possible to completely abolish the corvee system and implement a work-for-service system.

Ru Taisu immediately supported Prince Zhu Biao's idea of ​​completely abolishing the corvee system and implementing a system of replacing labor with work.

For this reason, Ru Taisu even had the idea of ​​amending the commercial tax again!!!

And the reason is very simple - leaving a name in history!!!

After the abolition of the position of prime minister, and the rule that Zhu Yuanzhang had previously set, "No title shall be granted unless it is for social and military merit, and no title shall be granted unless it is for special purposes."

It can be said that six ministers like Ru Taisu have basically reached the ultimate level of civil servants.

In the future, unless Ru Taisu dies, he may be further granted a title by the court.

However, it is just a simple seal.

From the perspective of later generations and the history of Qing Dynasty, there will be no difference between him and other civil servants, let alone anything worthy of special praise.

However, if during his tenure as the Minister of Household Affairs in the Ming Dynasty, he took the lead and promoted the abolition of the current corvee system and the implementation of the work-for-service system, implementing this benevolent policy for all people in the world.

Then his reputation as a vegetarian will shine brightly in history with the abolition of the current corvee system and the implementation of the work-for-service system!!!

In the future, when everyone talks about the benevolent policy of "abolition of the corvee system and the implementation of a work-for-service system", they will not be able to avoid Ru Taisu!!!

He will be at the top of the Qing Dynasty as a prime minister, and will be praised by future generations for his administrative skills!!!

For a civil servant with real character and spiritual pursuits, who can resist such a temptation?!!

At least Ru Taisu couldn't refuse.

Just when Ru Taisu was thinking about changing his tone and strongly supporting Prince Zhu Biao's plan to "abolish the corvee system and implement a work-for-labor system".

Yan Changqing, who was standing in front of the steps of the Alchemy Palace, waved his hand.

There was a waiter who opened a large sketch drawing on the left and right, and drew a concrete road and ten bumpy dirt roads that people often walk on.

At the same time, a chamberlain gave a portion to the civil and military officials below, each of whom had a statistical map of the current monthly traffic flow of some provinces, prefectures, and state roads in the Ming Dynasty.

Then, Yan Changqing looked at all the civil and military officials and said clearly:

"His Royal Highness the Prince and others are planning to build concrete roads at the national, provincial, prefectural, prefectural and county levels all over the world. I have roughly seen this plan before and made some improvements to it."

"Although the initial investment in this plan is relatively large, as long as it is operated properly, the benefits it can bring in the later period are also quite substantial."

“The first is commercial tax, let’s compare the road from Yingtianfu to Wanmin Agricultural College.

"If you take the concrete road to Wanmin Agricultural College, it will take about half an hour."

"If you take other dirt roads to get to Wanmin Agricultural College, it will take about an hour and a half."

“In other words, after the concrete road is built, the same distance can now be reached in only about one-third of the original time.

"In other words, a business that used to take three days can now be done once a day."

"The more transactions a merchant makes, the more business taxes they can collect."

“It’s hard to say how much the commercial tax will be increased, but we conservatively estimate that if it is at least doubled on top of the existing commercial tax, there will still be no problem...

"The second is highway tolls. After all, the imperial court spent a huge amount of manpower, material resources and other resources to build roads, which shortened the travel time for merchants and people from all over the world to each other by two-thirds."

"The imperial court is here to collect some highway tolls as a way to share the initial cost investment and subsequent road maintenance. It is reasonable to think about it."

"Of course, if they are unwilling to pay the highway toll, the court will not force them, and they can continue to walk back to the original dirt road with inconvenient transportation."

"It's just that sometimes it's not just soldiers who are quick, merchants also pay attention to speed and efficiency in their transactions."

“For the same goods, merchants taking the expressway may have sold out three times, while merchants taking the dirt road have just arrived.

"In the end, it's hard to say whether the goods of the merchants who used the dirt road can still be sold."

"If there is no toll on highways below the county level, state highways charge a distance and price of one penny per vehicle and every six kilometers.

"Prefecture-level highways charge a distance and price of one penny per vehicle and every five kilometers."

"Provincial highways charge a distance and price of one penny per vehicle and four kilometers."

"National-level expressway

Highways charge a distance and price of one penny per vehicle and three kilometers. "

"Then based on the statistics I collected, I calculated the flow of merchants and people passing by on the roads in all provinces, prefectures and states in the world every month.

“When concrete roads at the national, provincial, prefecture, state, and county levels are completed in the future, it is expected that a small state-level highway will be able to collect tens of thousands of dollars a year.

Expressway tolls can collect up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in expressway tolls. "

“After a prefecture-level medium-sized expressway is repaired, it can collect highway tolls of at least hundreds of thousands of guan a year, and it can collect highway tolls of hundreds of thousands of guan at most.

fee. "

"After a large provincial highway is repaired, it can collect highway tolls of hundreds of thousands of Guan a year, and it can collect highway tolls of millions of Guan at most.

fee. "

“After a national-level super-large expressway is built, it can collect highway tolls of millions of dollars in as little as a year [and can collect millions of dollars of highway tolls at most].

Travel expenses. "'

"The total number of highways in all countries, provinces, prefectures and states around the world is expected to bring at least 30 million yuan of income to the imperial court in a sustained and stable manner!!!"

"The construction of concrete roads at the national, provincial, prefectural, prefecture, and county levels all over the world today requires a huge initial investment."

"As long as there are no natural disasters or intentional damage such as man-made disasters in the future, the court will not only need simple maintenance on a regular basis, but the rest of the time, you can just lie down and collect money.

That’s it.

"And this amount of money can also be collected continuously and stably.

Looking at the clear and clear monthly traffic statistics chart of some provinces, prefectures, and prefectures in Ming Dynasty in his hand, and listening to Fan Bai's description just now, a group of civil and military personnel 5.6 hundred and more

Looking at the "First Five-year Road Traffic Construction Plan of the Ming Dynasty" proposed by Prince Zhu Biao just now, everyone's eyes are shining.

How is this road construction?!

His mother-in-law is clearly building Jinshan Mountain!!!

And it’s a golden mountain that gets bigger the more you cultivate it!!!

Putting aside the increase in commercial taxes caused by road construction, only after repairing concrete cement roads at the national, provincial, prefectural, state and county levels all over the world, the highway tax that can be collected

Highway tolls are as much as 30 million yuan!!!

If this is coupled with the increase in commercial taxes that will be generated after the road is built, wouldn't it be that the benefits that the road can bring after the road is built can reach more than 1,000 yuan per year?!

This is really not enough to describe the huge benefits brought by the road construction!!!

If other civil and military officials are still speculating, then Gu Taisu, as the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, can say with certainty that if the road construction is added to promote and increase business taxes,

talk.

Then the final overall income will definitely exceed 50 million yuan!!!

Because last year, the commercial tax collected by the Ming Dynasty for the whole year was as much as 20 million yuan, accounting for half of the Ming Dynasty's overall fiscal revenue, which was more than the land tax collected by the imperial court.

many!!!

At the same time, it was precisely because the commercial tax collected last year exceeded the land tax for the first time, which made Ru Taisu realize the potential of commercial tax.

So when it was discovered that there was still a shortage of 20 million yuan before the corvee system could be completely abolished and the work-for-service system was implemented, Ru Taisu turned his mind to commercial taxation.
