As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 366 Business Taxes

Li Fusheng had already learned in advance that Jiang Ran had brought back a group of refugees from the Land of Hanyuan. This scene was a bit familiar, but Li Fusheng knew that these people were not ordinary refugees, and they were probably better than Wen Bai, so Not daring to neglect, "Master, I have already ordered the meals in advance, and someone from the restaurant will deliver them to my door soon."

Jiang Ran came back to her senses and led these people into the main hall.

Yuanshui Jiang Mansion has a new look. The outdoors are paved with green bricks, and you can step in smoothly, but all the doors and windows have been replaced with pear wood with diamond pattern on the top and embossed cloud and dragon patterns on the bottom. The windows are bright and the tiles are bright, delicate and yet atmosphere.

The interior is made of Tanglianjing bricks with fine texture, dark fragrance in the reception room, warm woody fragrance in the interior, and potted plants in the corner with strong young trees, which are elegant and generous.

"The decoration of this house is really generous and comfortable..." Many people looked around and couldn't help admiring.

A month ago, this house looked like a dilapidated deserted house except for its large area and good location.

"Li Fusheng, send someone to find Hong Yuan and ask him to invite a few reliable doctors over, and then you entertain these people first, and they will all be your own people from now on."

Ba Gelian's treatment for these wounded people was simply to stop the bleeding, and barely saved the lives of these wounded people, but the hidden injuries of their bodies were not healed. In addition to the five-day long-distance journey, some people's bodies were already very hot and their minds were in a coma. .

"Yes! I'll arrange it now!" The renovation of Jiang's mansion has just ended, and a few of Hong Yuan's friends still stayed here. Li Fusheng didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly found someone to explain the situation, and some of Hong Yuan's friends were curious. Stretching his neck to look inside, he hurriedly ran out to find Hong Yuan.

On Jiang Ran's side, let these injured people stay in the hall for the time being. Fortunately, the hall is large enough to accommodate more than 100 people.

Then she leaned straight into the bedroom, planning to contact Suling County and Jiang Nancheng, and change her clothes by the way.

Entering the bedroom, one sees a huge huanghuali-carved cloud pattern bed, which is more than enough to sleep three or four people, and it is even more magnificent than the big bed in Suling Jiang's Mansion.On the wall facing the end of the bed, there is a gold-rimmed bronze mirror, and on the wall opposite the bronze mirror, there is a wardrobe.

After changing his clothes, Jiang Ran contacted Lin Sha and Wu Yun, mainly to ask them to count the remaining grain, clothes, stones and other materials in the granary.

Because during the war with Fenghuang, Suheng and other towns, the population of several towns was reduced. Jiang Ran gathered the supplies of these towns. Therefore, the granary and clothes were still full, even though there were more than 100 people suddenly , and didn't panic at all.

It is the stone used for construction...

"My lord, do you really want to build a new village?" Lin Sha was a little stunned, "Or build a village in Yunxiang Mountain?"

If there is no teleportation array, Yunxiang Mountain is one hundred and eighty thousand miles away from the main town of Suling.

Although Lin Sha has never been to Yunxiang Mountain in person, he has also heard that the Xiaoliang Mountain where Yiren lived before is located in Yunxiang Mountain, and that ginseng can be sold at a high price on Xiaoliang Mountain.

"Well, I have my own considerations, so you don't need to ask." Jiang Ran said, "You let Jiahan and Jiabing lead people to act, and you must hoard a batch of stones. When the spring begins, we will formally establish Dongtian Village."

The reason why Jiang Ran didn't build Dongtian Village before was that he didn't have the strength to resist the powerful monsters on Yunxian Mountain. Now that there are more than 100 spirit refining teams here, maybe he can try to build Dongtian Village.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of resources to place the teleportation array and the Hunyuan golden shield array.

Especially the space array, but the service life is only five years, after five years, it may be damaged, and if it needs to be repaired, it will cost a lot of money.

"My lord, the city wall around Fenghuang Zhenyuan is still under construction, so it may be difficult to free up manpower and supplies." Lin Sha was very helpless.

Moreover, in order to promote exchanges within the county and develop the economy, not only the city wall, but also the roads connecting Fenghuang, Zhenyuan, and Xinheng should be built as soon as possible after the beginning of spring.

Chen Mao didn't have a rest in the winter, and regardless of his fingers and face being red and chapped from the cold, he simply wrapped himself in a cotton jacket, held a pen and ruler in his hand, and dragged his subordinates and strangers to explore the terrain. Find a suitable place to build a road.

Jiang Ran naturally knew the many difficulties in the territory. She asked, "Since the opening of the trade, how has the territory's income been?"

This belongs to the field that Wu Yun is in charge of.

Thinking of the small money pouring into Fangcang in recent days, Wu Yun, who was on the other side of the sound transmission conch, smiled like a child of two hundred catties.

He flattered him first, "The county lord is really shrewd and wise! Since the opening of the trade port, in just one month, he has replenished the funds needed to build the city wall!"

For Kaesong trade, although Jiang Ran set up a very low entry fee (worth one silver dollar per person, plus one silver dollar for every two hundred catties of goods), it also attracted many outsiders to do business. According to the statistics of Wu Yun and others In the past month since the city gate was opened, Xinheng Town has an average daily flow of about 1000 outsiders, and a daily entry fee of two to three gold dollars can be charged.

Of course, this number is not high, and the entrance fee is not even a small amount of Suling's income.

According to the latest tax law issued by Suling Town, for all spiritual goods traded in Suling Town, Lingzhi pays 13.00% and [-]% of the unit price of the goods according to the classification of "third-class, second-class, and first-class", respectively. [-]. [-]% tax.

"Third-class, second-class, and first-class" spiritual plants are basically equal to "rare, epic, and legendary", and generally match the rarity assessed by the world for demon spirits. For example, Bing Ganoderma is a rare spiritual plant, that is, a third-class spiritual plant. Three percent business tax.

This means that there is no commercial tax on trading common plants such as common wheat and corn.

When Qiu Baishui formulated the commercial tax, he specifically asked Jiang Ran for his opinion.

Jiang Ran knew that the gap between rich and poor between mortals and monks would become more and more obvious in the future, so when revising this article, the common crops were picked out.

Although this will reduce the income of the territory, on the one hand, it can alleviate the conflict between mortals and monks, and on the other hand, it encourages the common people to continue planting common crops—after all, there are demon spirits in the territory that guarantee the survival rate of crops Under this situation, farmers will definitely give priority to planting spiritual plants that are more popular and can sell for higher prices.

"..."

Except for spiritual plants, spiritual goods that are further processed, such as elixirs and magic tools, are classified according to five levels of "fan, earth, heaven, holy, and god". When trading, one percent of the unit price of the goods is paid , 13.00%, [-]%, [-]%, [-]% tax.

Suling's new business tax also includes the tax rates for the sale of livestock such as pigs, cattle, sheep, and beasts, restaurants, blacksmith shops, and cloth shops.

In short, outsiders who come to Suling County to trade goods or open stores must abide by the laws of Suling and pay commercial taxes. (In fact, it is almost similar to modern customs duties). Someone will check the goods brought by outsiders at the gate of the city and pay commercial taxes in full in advance. , and then pass.

Of course, this must have discouraged the enthusiasm of outsiders to come to Xinheng for trade, but who made the people in Suling, which is surrounded by the sea, rich and have high purchasing power?

Moreover, Suling, which has boats, keeps seafood every day, and can often catch some spiritual fish, which also attracts many people's pursuit.

Wu Yun said happily, "My lord, this month, the territory has earned more than 600 spirit crystals just by collecting taxes!"
