    After returning home, Huang Mingyuan began to plan the next commercial tax reform.

    Huang Mingyuan first called Deng Yi and Xia Anxun to discuss.  When the two arrived, Huang Mingyuan took out a roll of documents, but just as he was about to hand it to them, he took it over and drew the things in front of it.

    Deng Yi took the document first. The first half of the document had been obliterated by Huang Mingyuan, and the second half read, "Officials, gentry, and businesses all pay taxes as one."

    Through the alterations in the first half, you can vaguely see that "officials and gentry receive food as one body".

    Deng Yi was full of shock. Since ancient times, officials have not paid taxes. If the method of paying taxes for officials is implemented, there may be an uproar.

    "Wei Gong, it has been an ancient practice for officials not to pay taxes. If this policy is implemented, I am afraid that everyone will oppose it and turmoil will continue."

    "So I gave him the food package!" Huang Mingyuan was somewhat disapproving.

    Huang Mingyuan looked at the two of them and said: "Since ancient times, officials have indeed not been required to pay taxes or serve in the military, but at that time, regarding land tax, commercial taxes were not allowed to be paid.

    Since Shang Yang¡¯s reform, all dynasties have focused on agriculture and suppressed commerce.  In this case, why does agriculture, which is heavy, have to pay taxes, but commerce, which is light, does not?  "

    ??As for business tax, in fact, it¡¯s not that everyone doesn¡¯t pay it.

    Many aristocratic families use some of their children or in-laws to run businesses for the sake of so-called face. These people sometimes pay taxes, mostly to pass customs duties, but they are not systematic and have no system.

    There is no established commercial tax system in history, and Huang Mingyuan doesn¡¯t understand the value-added tax and stamp tax of later generations, and secondly, they may not be suitable for this era.

    Huang Mingyuan asked the two of them: "I don't have a working system on how to implement this new commercial tax, so I want you and Wen Jia to draft a feasible commercial tax system first and implement it temporarily in Liaodong.

    ????????????????? I¡¯ll just say that, I will protect you. If you can¡¯t win even a small Liaodong now, how will you return to the Central Plains in the future?  "

    Huang Mingyuan knows very well that there is nothing reasonable or unreasonable about taxation.  As long as the people are not forced to death, it is actually a process of adaptation.

    Like a wandering monkey, the level of acceptance is related to the first three or four given.  If you give one at the beginning, the result will be the same.

    Many states in the United States have state taxes, but they are all different and vary greatly. However, they do not affect the lives of local people, and no one asks for uniform state taxes. Not many people go from state taxes to state taxes because of this.  There are few places to go.  Because state taxes were established from the beginning and everyone is used to them, no one questions them.

    Huang Mingyuan wants everyone to get used to paying commercial taxes.

    Deng Yi looked at Huang Mingyuan, and then said: "In the land of Liaodong, commerce is most likely controlled by the Four Seas Business Group. If the Four Seas Business Group can pay taxes seriously, it will be useless for others to object."

    Both of them knew that the Sihai Merchant Group was Huang Mingyuan's property, so they didn't know Huang Mingyuan's attitude.

    Huang Mingyuan looked at the two of them and said, "Don't worry, the Sihai Business Group will take the lead in paying commercial taxes, and will proactively cut off business ties with shops that do not pay commercial taxes."

    Using a business model to force everyone to pay business taxes, if they don¡¯t pay taxes, they will be hit by business groups from all over the world.

    Deng Yi said: "With Duke Wei's words, Deng Yi feels relieved."

    Soon, Liaodong¡¯s commercial tax reform also began.

    The new commercial tax implements two types of fixed taxation and floating taxation.

    For some small shops, taxes are levied according to different amounts according to different asset levels.  For example, some grocery stores, small workshops and other places have too few assets, and many of them are derivatives of the agricultural economy.  In order to promote the development of these small shops, a nominal fee is generally collected.

    " Large hotels, carriage shops, caravans, fleets, trading shops, large workshops and other enterprises are divided into two parts.  Part of it is industry access, which is divided into three or four levels of fixed taxes based on assets, and then value-added tax is levied based on different standards for different industries.

    In fact, in this era, it is too easy to evade taxes, and the government cannot estimate the value of many business incomes.  His annual income of 100,000 yuan is very likely to be concealed as 5,000 yuan, making the business tax lose the meaning of existence.  Therefore, Huang Mingyuan set up an industry access tax and collected a fixed portion of profits as a subsidy for underreporting VAT.

    Of course Huang Mingyuan knows that this is unreasonable. This will greatly suppress some small and medium-sized enterprises, but there is no way.  This is necessary in order to collect more business taxes.

    Huang Mingyuan also ordered all parts of Liaodong to cancel various miscellaneous commercial taxes and fix commercial taxes.In this way, the need to get cards at various levels is avoided.

    Huang Mingyuan unified the setting of city entry tax and customs duty, reduced the collection ratio, and alleviated the operating burden of some shops.

    Generally speaking, the new business tax has increased the money paid by merchants, especially in some hugely profitable industries, such as brothels, theaters, hotels, carriage shops, caravans, and fleets, and a considerable part of their output has to be handed over to the government.  .

    But Huang Mingyuan has no choice. If the government wants to make money, it must work hard on taxation.  If we don¡¯t want to further exploit ordinary people, we can only pass it on to businessmen, which is inevitable.

    The business in Liaodong is not very developed. It is a business model with the Sihai Business Group as the core and driving the development of surrounding industries.  Huang Mingyuan ordered that after the companies in the Sihai Business Group paid commercial taxes in accordance with the tax requirements, the other companies immediately followed suit.  Everyone was reluctant, but there was no way. Who made Huang Mingyuan become so cruel that he even beat himself.

    Of course, the government has also added a special crime of tax evasion, which can be regarded as leaving a sword of Damocles to various business groups.

    The current business in Liaodong has not developed, and most of the business taxes received are from the Four Seas Business Group.  For Huang Mingyuan, it is equivalent to switching from left hand to right hand, with little impact.  Everyone was confused about this. It was all Huang Mingyuan's money, so why bother with it.

    Huang Mingyuan is of course not meaningless, but looking to the future.

    In fact, in this era, if ordinary people do not have a backstage, it is impossible to become bigger and stronger in business, because the social environment does not allow it.  For some small industries, the government's annual exploitation is more than the commercial taxes paid. The biggest impact of commercial taxes is actually the ruling class.

    Huang Mingyuan is now taking advantage of the fact that the power of the ruling class is not strong in Liaodong, so he takes action in Liaodong in advance to create established facts and form a complete business and tax order.  Even if they become stronger in the future and have historical support, business and tax matters will not easily change.

    The system implemented in Liaodong is to be promoted to the world in the future. Huang Mingyuan plans to start from Liaodong and then gradually implement it in Youzhou, Fengzhou and other places.  Wait until the unrest in Hebei is quelled and then implement it in Hebei.  Hebei is currently in turmoil and various forces are in turmoil. This is the best opportunity for reform.

    It is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to govern the world.  If it is just to fight for the world and still follow the old system, what is the use of becoming an emperor? Will the country go back to the old path?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
