Chapter 28 Industry Standards (Part 2)
Chapter 28 Industry Standards (Chinese)
"Uh... I also feel sad for those girls, but this is in the court. Will Liu Aiqing restrain his emotions?" I snickered in my heart. This fat man does have a good acting style.
"The emperor's words are wrong." Liu Zhenming said indignantly, "In the court, what is discussed is the time when the people are the people. The emperor always speaks, and the affairs of the people are no matter how small it is. Those poor girls have died tragically. I am very embarrassed and angry. What I am angry is that this industry is so irregular, leading to many evil surnames incidents. What I am ashamed is that Liu Zhenming, as an important minister of the court, does not ask about this matter. In the long run, I am afraid that the people will be disheartened, the emperor."
"Mr. Liu is such a bad word. This place of love is a place of trouble. If a murder case occurs, the prefect will be dealt with by the magistrate. What is the matter with your Ministry of Revenue? "The person who came out was a minister of the Ministry of Justice. I vaguely remember that his surname seemed to be Ye and his name was Juzheng.
"Mr. Ye, criminal matters are not subject to my jurisdiction. However, Liu is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue and the people of the world. The emperor regards the people of the world as children. In Liu's eyes, the people of the world are like their own brothers and sisters." Liu Zhenming said passionately: "What Lord Ye said just now is a big mistake. Punishment lies in prevention, not in governance. If you can make the world's criminal matters eliminate it in the bud before it happens. Compared to let it happen, and then rectify it. Lord Ye thinks, who is stronger, who is weak?"
"Hmph. Lord Liu is so proficient in criminal affairs, why would you apply to the emperor for transfer to the Ministry of Justice?" Ye Juzheng said disdainfully.
"Mr. Ye's words are wrong. Those who are officials in the world need to be clear about the laws of the crime before they can control the people. Otherwise, if they do not know the laws of the crime, they will inevitably lead to unreasonable punishment. If they are not upright, how can they obey the people?" Liu Zhenming said jokingly: "Further, officials must be compassionate. Master Ye regards the fate of the people as a careless person, and Mr. Liu feels very dissatisfied."
"This." Ye Juzheng seemed to feel indecisive and retreated in annoyance.
I laughed in my heart. Fatty Liu was so eloquent. So I waved my hand and said, "Liu Aiqing, how should you prevent and control these criminal cases according to your wishes?"
"Reporting to the emperor, I believe that so many criminal cases have occurred. It is caused by the irregularities in the entire industry. As long as the court makes efforts to formulate an industry standard, every place of fame will act in accordance with the industry standards set by the court. I believe that the probability of various criminal cases will be greatly reduced." Liu Zhenming then put forward the concept of industry norms.
"A lot of nonsense." An old minister came out of the ministers, who seemed to be the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. He saw him with a beard and said indignantly: "Mr. Liu, according to your wishes, do you want the court to teach those journalists step by step. How to open business and how to collect money?"
"Mr. Yang? You seem to have misunderstood the students' original intentions." Yang Zhe seems to have a high seniority, and he is still Liu Zhenming's teacher-in-law.
"Don't call yourself a student. I, Mr. Yang, don't have a student like you." Yang Zhe's eyes turned pale and said Ao.
Liu Zhenming's face did not change at all, and he continued, "Mr. Yang, you are the teacher of students for one day, the teacher of students for the rest of their lives. Whether you admit it or not, in the hearts of students, Mr. Yang has always been the teacher of students."
"Hmph." Yang Zhe snorted slightly, but turned his head away, and did not refute in person this time.
"However, private relationships are private relationships. Now this is in the court. Students have to ask, Lord Yang, have you heard that there is no rule and no square?" Liu Zhengming's chubby body kept looking at Yang Zhe.
"Nonsense, this is a sentence that I often say in class with you." Yang Zhe rolled his eyes and glared at Liu Zhenming with dissatisfaction.
"This is really a good word. This sentence is really a good word. Students should remember it in their hearts and will never forget it for life." Liu Zhenming showed a happy expression, and then said seriously: "However, Lord Yang seems to have overturned his creed that he has kept."
"Liu Zhenming, what do you mean by saying this?" Yang Zhe glared at Liu Zhenming fiercely and called his name directly.
"The scene where Lord Yang said was still vivid in front of the students." Liu Zhenming seemed to have sunk into the past and was intoxicated. Suddenly, his face darkened again and said, "But when the student said that he wanted to follow Lord Yang's teachings, he caused a lot of nonsense. Why is this?"
"In this court, I'm discussing the matter of remembering women. You're not talking nonsense, what's that?" Yang Zhe was so angry that his beard shook. If he gave him a space-time device to go back to the past, he would definitely not be willing to accept Liu Zhenming as a student.
"Yes, the place of love is indeed the most despised industry among all industries. This industry hides dirt and breeds various crimes. However, it is precisely because of this that students advocate starting to rectify this industry and demarcate a complete rule for this industry so that the entire industry can develop on a healthy road." Liu Zhenming said lightly: "If our court does not listen to it, this industry will probably be more chaotic and unbearable. More pitiful women will lose their lives for it. Lord Yang, in your mind, they will not be those pitiful women, and they should not be discussed, right?"
"Liu Aiqing seems to be reasonable. I have always regarded the people of the world as my own." I know that acting is almost done. Many ministers below probably already agreed with what Liu Zhenming said in their hearts. Then they said: "Liu Aiqing, since you mentioned industry norms in the third place, can you tell me your ideas first and let everyone listen. It's better to have an estimate. If you make such a fuss, you can't make a name for yourself."
"Wei Chen obeys the order." Liu Zhenming cleared his voice and said, "According to the research of Wei Chen, all kinds of murders often occur in various small and small places of romantic and mysterious kilns. He also referred to some large and orderly romantic and romantic places. Wei Chen summarized the following industry norms: First, the court established a new department. Any existing romantic and romantic places must be approved by this department before it can issue a certificate and enable legal business. There is another advantage, that is, the court's tax revenue can be implemented more effectively."
"Secondly, for some romantic places that are not approved and operate without authorization, the court should order the new departments to ban and crack down on them. This will have considerable benefits for preventing some unpredictable cases."
"Third, severe punishment will be carried out for any fights, or murderous crimes, or places where Liang Weichang is forced to do so."
"Fourth, every girl must be registered in the new department, and a specialist will have a paid physical examination for her. If there are all kinds of patients, they will not be allowed to engage in a job before being cured. Moreover, girls in the industry must undergo a physical examination every once in a while. The new department will issue a health certificate. Girls without a health certificate will face punishment."
"Fifth, re-implement the tax norms of this industry, and tax the amount of 20% of its operating income is taxed. We have calculated a calculation that the taxes that can be collected in the country's romantic places in previous years were about 400,000 taels a year. However, if we follow Weichen's tax method, the most conservative estimate can make the tax reach nearly 6 million taels."
"Six million taels?" Almost everyone's eyes lit up. This is a big sum. The country's annual tax revenue is only 256 million taels. In this way, the budget funds that can be allocated to each department will be greatly increased?
I was also moved by the feeling that even if I didn’t get involved in running brothels, I seemed to make a lot more money? Liu Zhenming’s mind was quite good. However, it seems that this kind of pornographic business place only charges 20% of the tax, which seems to be a little low. Then I said, “Liu Aiqing’s proposal is quite outstanding, but I believe that the national tax should not be fully covered by ordinary poor people. The taxes in these huge profit-making industries should be mainly collected. In this way, the taxes in the romantic places will be set at the four best. Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep, and the money lost by the madams will be drawn from those lambs.”
"The emperor is wise, I am ashamed of myself." Liu Zhenming knelt down and flattered me, saying, "No matter how hard I am, I don't want to be.
"In addition, Liu Aiqing will help me calculate and reduce the taxes of ordinary people by half. How much will the treasury income be reduced?" I said calmly.
"Report to the emperor, the tax collected from farmers every year is about 12 million taels. If half of the tax is cut off, the treasury income in the Fengyue place will still increase by about 6 million taels." Liu Zhenming did not treat the position of Minister of Revenue injustice, and all the data is catchy.
"Okay, since that's the case, then Liu Aiqing will make a new tax plan and give it a review for me. Next year, it will be implemented in accordance with the new tax law." I am a little relieved. Although reducing taxes may not necessarily bring back some people, it can also reduce some of their burdens.
"My emperor is wise, and his humble minister Liu Zhenming, the Minister of Revenue, kowtowed to the emperor for the people of the world. Long live the emperor." Liu Zhenming quickly put a hat on my head.
Before the other ministers could react, we were both monarchs and ministers, and we sang and drank, and decided on this major event. However, after all, my starting point was to reduce the burden on the poor people and increase the income of the treasury. Therefore, it is difficult for all ministers to object. Otherwise, no one would be able to bear the big hat of fish and meat.
"My emperor is wise." When the ministers saw that the major matter was settled, they bowed helplessly.
I was secretly happy that I could make a lot of money by using this industry norms.
