() There are more than 2000 shops in Jiangning County. It is impossible to take care of all the shops in Jiangning County. The main thing is to take care of the big customers, of course, that is to say, the [-] merchants are the focus of care. Even if the economy is developed hundreds of years later, this is the same approach, and it is impossible to cover everything.

The 63 merchants are also divided into three grades. The first grade is the [-] largest merchants. The focus is on publicity and promotion. For the ten medium-sized shops, the county government has adopted the method of purchasing some shops and promoting them to the outside world to make them more famous. The third grade is the remaining [-] shops, which can only be promoted.

If this method can be carried forward in an orderly manner, Jiangning County will undergo great changes in a short period of time, and the competition among merchants will appear immediately, especially for medium-sized merchants, who will find ways to become big merchants and enjoy more More referrals and care will also promote their own business better and earn more money.

Of course, if the common people have no money in their hands, everything is useless.

Although Su Tiancheng is not very proficient in the laws of economic development, he is clear about one thing. When the shops develop, they must hire more labor. In this way, some farmers can enter the shops or workshops, and through Their own labor earns money to subsidize the family. At the same time, the county government allows farmers to have enough food and clothing by exempting land taxes and developing water conservancy facilities.With more money in hand, you can buy more goods.Promoting consumption in Jiangning County, such a virtuous circle, is the correct path of development.

The condition of Jiangning County itself is good, which is a good foundation.

After the farmers who were repairing the ditches began to collect Susu from Susufang in batches, many merchants in Jiangning County couldn't sit still, especially the fifteen large merchants, who watched Wan Chenggui start to expand the workshop.To recruit apprentices, they immediately went to the county government. This time, they were anxious to find the county magistrate and asked for a donation of 2 taels.

Su Pingyang is already familiar with the corresponding procedures. After each merchant has handed over 2 taels of silver.A large number of bills came out, and the officials of the county government, the sergeants of the inspection department, and the farmers who built the ditches began to flock to these shops, and round after round of promotional tides appeared.

in the process.Wan Chenggui has already found the rest of the merchants separately, and told them what the county government wanted, and let them make their own choices.

The facts are before our eyes, to put it bluntly, these merchants.It's like donating some money to the county government for advertising.Used to get the care of the county government. <The breath of festival came.

The atmosphere in Jiangning County has changed a lot. The most busy people are the county government and merchants.

Almost every day, merchants come to the county government office. When these merchants enter the county government office, they hold their heads up, as if they can enter the county government office. There were only one hundred and eight families as guests, which was the county government's affirmation of them.

The donated silver has continuously entered the treasury, and many bills have also been printed continuously.

The twelfth lunar month is the peak season for sales, and the merchants in Jiangning County are very busy. They found that not only the people of Jiangning County, but also Shangyuan County, and even several other Gyeonggi counties, came to buy goods.

Su Tiancheng was not idle, he took the next step according to the original plan, giving gifts.

The six departments of Nanjing, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Jingying, Yingtianfu, Shangyuan County, and the rest of Jingji County, all officials received gifts. These are products of Jiangning County, mainly products of fifteen shops. At the same time, the county Officials in the Yamen began to promote these products to acquaintances on a large scale.

The renovation of the official land is over, but the construction of a few pools and weir ponds has not been completely completed. The farmers have received the money and joined the buying army. The Spring Festival is coming soon. Who doesn't want to have a good New Year at home.

Households also need to make statistics on the employment situation. This is specially ordered by the county magistrate. To the surprise of the housekeepers and government servants who participated in the statistics, many farmers who participated in the renovation of Guantian canals directly entered the workshops to work. , This is also because the owner of the shop finds that these are good labor forces, and he also needs to expand the scale of production and expand the workshop. The festival is approaching, and there may be more people recruited. Some farmers are anxious to go home for the New Year, and have not gone to the workshop for the time being.

Then came to the county government office, some restaurants in Jiangning County, they also heard the news.

The owner of the restaurant came to the county government office, and after meeting with Su Tiancheng, he also offered to donate money.

This was something Su Tiancheng did not expect.

The increase of the floating population will inevitably promote the business of restaurants and inns. There are many restaurants, and the business is very prosperous. They are naturally worried. The county government takes care of many merchants, but they are forgotten. If there is any change in the future, these merchants If there is nothing, they will suffer.

Besides, people have a face, look at those merchants who handed in the donated money, when they walk, they all hold their heads up. The owner of the restaurant is naturally unconvinced, so why should he walk with his head down.

When such a situation happened, Su Tiancheng finally laughed.

The initial goal has been achieved. The donations from large and wealthy households are close to 70 taels, and the silver donations from salt merchants are added to a total of 230 million taels.

He set his sights on the Shibo Lifting Department.

Now that consumption has increased, the goods entering Jiangning County from all over the country will inevitably increase. The most important channel is the Shibo Lifting Department. The volume of goods coming from waterways is the largest. Such a tax must not be missed. Lost.

Besides, Jiangning County has received so much donated money, and it is not respectful to wrap it in paper. The higher-ups know that they must be tempted. The Shibo Lifting Department has collected more money, and the money handed over to the court will naturally increase. Now, under such circumstances, the imperial court will not be jealous of Jiangning County's money, at least it will not exploit too much money.

Through Wang Daozhi's contact, Su Tiancheng got in touch with the Shibo Lifting Department.

Jiangning County dispatched [-] officials and [-] yamen servants to the Shibo Lifting Department. Jiangning County was responsible for all the expenses of these people. Their duties were to collect taxes and transport goods to Jiangning County. , Including the goods to Shangyuan County, all taxes will be drawn according to the ratio of [-] taxes to [-], no matter who they are, they can't be special.As for the taxes received, Jiangning County only needs [-]% of them.

Su Tiancheng's time calculation was very appropriate, and a large amount of goods were transported to Nanjing by water.

The officials and yamen servants in Jiangning County began to be busy as soon as they arrived at the Shibo Tiju Division.

All of this, like a magic trick, left all the officials in the county government stunned. They really didn't understand where the magistrate came from to make the shops in Jiangning County so prosperous in such a short period of time. Some of the shops were extremely busy, and the products were sold out continuously.Even the sergeants in the Beijing camp have begun to purchase goods in Jiangning County on a large scale. <Cultivation production is about to start. The county government already has enough money to exempt the next year's land tax. There is no problem at all. This can stimulate pus farming. Of course, there is something for the gentry in Jiangning County For some influence, since the county government has exempted the land tax, the peasants don't need to find ways to rely on the gentry's people.

Such a big event needs to be approved by Ying Tianfu.

When Su Tiancheng went to Yingtian Mansion to report, he found that Tang Shiji was also in Yingtian Mansion.

The great changes in Jiangning County have long attracted Tang Shiji's attention.

After Tang Shiji and Wang Daozhi heard Su Tiancheng's report, they were stunned. Jiangning County promised to pay the full amount of taxes, bear the salaries of officials and sergeants of the inspection department, and exempt the land tax for the coming year.

This is like a fantasy.

Tang Shiji spoke first, asking about Jiangning County's source of income.

Su Tiancheng casually revealed the source of Jiangning County's income.

He didn't want to say it at first, but such a thing can't be kept secret, it's better to say it earlier, there is a consequence, he thought of it, and he made preparations, that is, Nanjing Liubu and Yingtianfu must exploit from the middle some.

Tang Shiji was also straightforward, and directly pointed out that the Ministry of War and other departments are very difficult. Since Jiangning County is so rich, should you consider handing in some donations? Wang Daozhi also said that the government officials are not treated as well For the officials of Jiangning County, this is somewhat unreasonable.

The 30 taels of silver disappeared in the midst of such discussions.

When he left Yingtian Mansion, Su Tiancheng hated him. He had no choice but to take out the money because he was crushed to death by a senior official.

Jiangning County has specially enriched the tax collection team. In name, these officials and government officials are responsible for collecting land taxes. In fact, they are responsible for collecting donations. As for land taxes, Su Tiancheng has already considered it. As long as he is still in Jiangning The county will not collect land taxes. Anyway, I asked Ying Tianfu for instructions, and Mr. Fu Yin did not object.

On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, the county government posted a notice to exempt the land tax for the coming year, which once again aroused huge repercussions.

As early as when the official land was being renovated, there was a lot of pus. I have come to see it. Now, the county government exempts the land tax for the next year. Under such circumstances, if you farm well, the harvest on the field will be your own. Wouldn't it be a pity to live in such an opportunity, a lot of pus, since the twelfth lunar month, they have been tidying up their fields. (To be continued.
