I open a restaurant in Daqin

Chapter 140

"What are your expressions? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Seeing everyone looking at him disappointedly, Qin Yong was a little speechless.

"Mr. Xuanwen, you have to know that this taxation is the foundation of the Qin Dynasty and cannot be shaken. Otherwise, the world will be in chaos!"

Li Si shook his head and reminded.

"I thought it was something, who told you that raising taxes would shake the foundations of the country?"

"Do you think that the country is perfect now, and the taxation is perfect? ​​After hearing Zhao Lang's calculations just now, I can see that the taxation of Daqin is just a prototype, and it is far away from perfection."

"Don't you think that polishing a piece of rough jade will damage the value of this rough jade?"

Qin Yong twitched his lips, and while speaking, gave some comments on the policies of the Great Qin State, which was an editor who was not polite at all.

As soon as this remark came out, it once again attracted Ying Zheng's attention.

Good guy, this is the first person who dares to despise Daqin's national policy in a hundred years.

You must know that in the great tide of political reform back then, Qin State stood out and stood out from the crowd.

The laws and regulations of the Qin State, the foundation of the country, are absolutely the most perfect existence in other countries. It is really unreasonable for people to complain so much now.

"I'm talking about Xuan Wenjun, isn't your statement a bit exaggerated? Is there any flaw in my Daqin's national policy?"

Ying Zheng was somewhat dissatisfied.

"It's not that there are some flaws, it's that there are flaws everywhere!"

Qin Yong curled his lips and said.

For a moment, Yingzheng felt that at this moment, the efforts of the ancestors of all generations seemed to be refuted with one mouthful.

"Then tell me, what are the flaws?"

Ying Zheng felt a little annoyed. He knew that this kid was powerful, but there was no need to belittle Qin like this!

"Okay, if you want to listen to me, I will tell you Lun Lun!"

Qin Yong was also aroused, no matter how clear he was, he felt awkward, and immediately said: "I ask you, you are also a businessman, right!"

Ying Zheng was taken aback, isn't this nonsense?I contacted you as a businessman, didn't you see it?
"Of course!"

Ying Zheng replied.

"That's it. Let me ask you, as a businessman, do you feel good about being replaced by people as cheap businessmen all day long?"

Qin Yong asked again.

"Of course it doesn't feel good!"

Ying Zheng thought for a while, and answered truthfully.

Being belittled like this, of course no one would feel good, let alone a businessman, anyone would not like it.

But whether the businessman is feeling well, what does it have to do with national policy?
As soon as Yingzheng had doubts in his heart, he heard Qin Yong say, "Look, is there a problem? Now I'll ask you again, do you know why businessmen are called sputtering industry, which is not pleasing?"

Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment, this question hit his soul.

Before he could answer, Qin Yong said again: "Actually, you have already said the answer. You mentioned my Daqin's taxes, but I didn't hear about commercial taxes!"

"That is to say, there is a head tax in Daqin, and everyone has to pay it, including merchants. But ten yuan a month is like a drop in the bucket for merchants. Merchants earn too much. But merchants don't have land tax. There are no other taxes for merchants!"

"In the end, it led to a situation where the merchants made a lot of money, but the nations didn't get any benefits at all!"

"And the common people see businessmen making so much money, who doesn't look like a businessman?"

"But if all the people are engaged in business, who will manage the land at all?"

"So there is a phenomenon that the countries must suppress the merchants, even if it is cursing, first of all let the farming people be higher than the merchants."

"In this way, the people in the farmland can be retained and continue to cultivate. Do you understand now?"

Ying Zheng frowned and nodded slightly, of course he understood.

"But what does this have to do with national policy?"

Ying Zheng asked.

"Why doesn't it matter? Merchants don't pay taxes. This is the biggest relationship. I mentioned business taxes earlier, understand?"

"Countries suppress businessmen because they don't get any benefits. But if businessmen give countries more benefits than people, is there still a need to suppress them?"

Qin Yong reached out and knocked on the table, speaking in a louder tone.

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's heart tightened suddenly, as if he had heard something.

"You mean to increase the taxes of merchants, not the taxes of other common people?"

Ying Zheng Road.

"That's right, the taxation of the common people of the state of Qin is the most reasonable nowadays. It cannot be changed, not at all. But the businessman is different, and must be increased. In this way, it is good for both the businessman and the court. No harm at all!"

Qin Yong said unquestionably.

These words said that he has even decided in his heart that no matter what, he must find a way to present this policy through his current identity, so that Daqin can change.

Otherwise, he would hardly dare to make money himself, for fear of death!
"Isn't the interest of the merchant greatly reduced by the imperial court's increase in tax revenue for merchants? How can it be said that there is no harm at all?"

Ying Zheng was puzzled.

"You are wrong. Increasing the tax for merchants will not only not reduce the interests of the merchants, but will increase the interests of the merchants even more!"

Qin Yong shook his head and objected.

"How do you say that? I'm also a businessman, so I don't think I'll make any money if I pay the court!"

Ying Zheng said from the perspective of a businessman: "You know, businessmen don't seem to pay taxes, so they make a lot of money. But every business transaction is a gamble!"

"Don't say too much, let's just say that these countries are in chaos. I, Daqin, want to import a batch of rouge from Yan State. On the way, not only will I encounter bandits blocking the way, but it will be at stake."

"Once any country is dissatisfied on the way, it will be a capital offense. The money earned so hard will be handed over to the imperial court. Would you like it if it were you?"

Qin Yong had to admit that what Ying Zheng said was indeed true. In this troubled world, doing business is indeed very dangerous.

But isn't this an opportunity?
Qin Yong said with a smile: "You are right, but because of this, this tax must be paid!"

Ying Zheng frowned, why did this become a reason to pay taxes?
Seeing that he was puzzled, Qin Yong shook his head and said, "Let me explain it to you. Why do businessmen always hold their heads and beg for food every time they go out? Isn't it because the countries don't pay enough attention to businessmen?"

"Let me ask you again, why don't the nations value merchants and let them fend for themselves? Isn't it because merchants don't pay taxes?"

"Such a simple question, with a slight change, is it still a problem?"

"For example, if I earn one hundred, I will give fifty to the court... No, even if it is thirty, if I can earn one hundred thousand gold a year, the court will get thirty thousand gold. Will the court make money? I can make the court so big. Earn, tell me, will the imperial court protect me or not?"

Yingzheng's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "Bao, of course you have to. Whoever dares to touch you, the court will have to work hard!"

Qin Yong said with a smile: "See, if this is the case, won't the problem be solved? In the future, if I do business and the imperial court will protect me, will I still suffer losses?"

"No, I don't have to worry about the goods being intercepted or robbed at all. I will make money without losing money, and the court will make money without losing money!"

"In this way, not only can it stimulate the economic lifeline of a country, but it can also effectively help the imperial court to make the country rich and the people strong. When the time comes, the imperial court will suppress businessmen?"
