survival in the wilderness

Turning his head and taking a deep look at the door of the "Treasure Store", Lin Yan walked straight to the City Lord's Mansion without stopping.

It happened that Bai Chen was dealing with something, so she said directly: "Who opened the treasure shop?"

Bai Chen reacted for a while and said, "Wait a minute, I'll find someone to get the materials."

After giving orders, Bai Chen saw Lin Yan's appearance and asked, "What happened, is there a problem with the Treasure Store?"

Lin Yan slumped on the chair, "I was stimulated. Do you know what the Treasure Store sells?"

"do not know."

"I shouldn't have hoped for you. Apart from research and experimentation, you can have other things in your eyes. It's really my wish." Lin Yan sighed and gestured: "Such a big pearl has a pure color. , it’s not ordinary at first glance. One costs three yuan, why don’t you say they don’t grab it.”

"As soon as I went in, there were a row of such big pearls. There were at least a dozen of them. They told me that they are rare and rare. I would believe it. In addition to pearls, there are also some rare shells, coral trees, etc., which are colorful and very beautiful. , It’s dazzling to see, but unfortunately it’s too expensive. I’m just curious, who has such a big money, owns such a cornucopia, and it’s not difficult to earn gold and silver.”

Bai Chen didn't believe it, "Just curious?"

Lin Yan spread his hands, "Okay, I admit that I'm jealous."

"Speak the truth."

Lin Yan turned serious in a second, "I want to know, is the tax rate for these luxury goods the same as for ordinary goods?"

Bai Chen shook his head, "I really didn't pay attention to this. There are regulations on business tax, the types and tax rates of luxury goods, do you think someone will take advantage of loopholes?"

"Yeah, huge profits. Who is willing to hand over the money they earn in their pockets? Don't overestimate human nature. I'll check it out so I can rest assured. In order to build the South Sea Port City, the Alliance has invested a lot. If someone really dares to take advantage of loopholes, they will not be relentless."

There is no way, the alliance is short of money, and must find a way to make up for the previous deficit.The construction of Nanhai Port City alone has invested millions of dollars. With such a big hole, with the current population of Nanhai Port City, I don’t know when it will be filled.

Although sea salt is put into production, it can fill part of it, but it will take time.

Seeing those pearls and coral trees today, Lin Yan immediately thought of taxation.At present, only Nanhai Port City has the conditions to own these treasures. If they are transported to Tianduan Mountain, they will definitely make a lot of money.

Such lucrative luxuries must be made good use of to fill the financial shortfall as soon as possible.

After checking the information and accounts, Lin Yan and Bai Chen's expressions were very ugly.

Treasure Shops really have the guts to pay taxes with general merchandise, and even enjoy the preferential tax policy.

Slapping his face, Bai Chen didn't dare to look at Lin Yan.

Lin Yan: "The problem has already arisen. We should solve the problem first. What's the use of blaming yourself. It can be offset by people's tax. It shows that people in taxation have a big problem."

"I know. Nanhai Port City was equipped with a tax agency last year, with fewer people and fewer tasks. I really didn't expect that these people would neglect their duties and only look at the accounts instead of on-site assessments."

When the tax manager was called and asked a few words, Lin Yan's mentality collapsed.

Bai Chen's face was even more gloomy, "As the person in charge of taxation, you don't go to the on-site assessment for tax inspection, so tell me, how can you be sure that the tax reported by the merchant is correct?"

"I really don't know about this." Liu Feng looked at Bai Chen's ugly face, "I, I have never been in contact with these things, so how would I know. Those two people under my command did everything, and no one told me how should I do."

Lin Yan: "Seeing that you are not too young, what did you do before, how did you become the person in charge of taxation?"

Liu Feng glanced at Bai Chen, and then said: "I retired from the military headquarters. I was sent here at the time. I was injured and couldn't stay in the military headquarters, so I was assigned to pay taxes. The leader said, I don't understand, it's okay. The two guys assigned to me are professionals and they will get the job done."

Lin Yan and Bai Chen stared wide-eyed, how could there be such omissions in the personnel transfer order.

Taxation is such an important department, how can someone who doesn't know anything be assigned to manage it.

Bai Chen: "Bring me your transfer order."

"There is no transfer order." Liu Feng patted his head. He was already in his 30s. "At that time, there was a shortage of people, so I was sent here. It took a few years."

After Liu Feng left, Bai Chen and Lin Yan looked at each other and understood the seriousness of the problem.

The port city of Nanhai is remote, and the staff of civil servants has been hired successively over the past few years, without formal procedures.

Under the circumstances, it was understandable to do so.Make the best use of people, and do it when there is a shortage of people.

Bai Chen has just arrived here, with habitual thinking, he didn't realize the difference between this place and Sun City.

The various institutions under the City Lord's Mansion have not yet been perfected, and are preparing to select from these people who have migrated.

After a long silence, Lin Yan said: "Don't blame yourself, it has nothing to do with you. The situation in Nanhai Port City is special, and there is a shortage of talents. As it is, we can only take it slowly. Not only taxation, I have read it, except for the police, courts and The rest of the people in the bank are improvised. Now that the problem has been discovered, it’s time to fix it.”

Bai Chen shook his head, "No. Taxpayers are professionals and shouldn't make such a mistake. Liu Feng doesn't understand, and the two tax collectors below don't understand. There is a problem here. I have the impression that both tax collectors It's a professional who was brought in."

Lin Yan understood in seconds, there was something tricky about it, "Just call them here and ask."

"I'll go find them."

Lin Yan hurriedly followed, "I'm with you."

When he arrived at the tax office, Liu Feng was asking about the situation of two tax collectors.The two of them didn't rush in, they activated their mental power and listened to the whole process quietly.

Liu Feng was born in the army, so there was no problem with his loyalty, but he suffered as a layman, and was taken aback by two tax collectors, completely ignorant of the trick.

Although Bai Chen and Lin Yan hadn't done any tax work, they had brains and quickly discovered the problem.

When they kicked the door in, the faces of Liu Feng and the three were very exciting.

Lin Yan looked at one of the women, who was in her 20s and had worked in the Sun City Taxation Bureau for less than a year. She came to Nanhai Port City voluntarily, "Hu Juan, right, let me hear what you just said again."

Hu Juan's complexion changed drastically. She recognized Lin Yan. If Bai Chen was the only one, she might still be a bit lucky, but with Lin Yan added, she knew she couldn't be fooled.

"Why don't you say it, dare not say it, or can't say it?"

Lin Yan looked at the other person with a half-smile, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who had just graduated from middle school and came here with a passion for it. When did she get contaminated by the mud?
"Fang Chuchu, don't you have anything to say?"

Fang Chuchu's face turned red, and he hesitated, "I, I did everything according to sister Hu Juan's orders."

"Oh, so you know what you're doing?"

Fang Chuchu hesitated for a while and nodded, "I, I can't help it. Sister Hu Juan has the final say here. Director Liu Feng listens to Sister Hu Juan."

Liu Feng was sweating profusely. He wanted to explain something, but he didn't know where to start.He never thought that these two people would fool him. (end of this chapter)
