Capital City, Yan Mansion.

Yan Jing, a scholar of the Nei Shu Pavilion, and Yan Yuanshu are entertaining a visitor.

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was the Emperor of the Mansion and Zong Ling, the uncle of Emperor Yongping, and the King of King Li Heng.

"Your Highness, please!"

Yan Jing poured a cup of tea for King Yu, made a "please" gesture, and then sat back to his seat.

King Yu smiled and said, "Sir Yan's tea looks like it's not ordinary!"

"King Yu is too good to be honest, this is a 2000 tea on the street!"

What is one or two tea?

It's just one tael of silver and one tael of tea.

Is this a good tea?

Of course not counting!

True good tea is sold by money. You can only buy one if you count two silver or gold.

But are these or two teas bad?

Compared to the tea that is worthy of by pounds, this can be considered a good tea.

The high-ranking officials look down on one or two tea, while the common people in the market cannot afford one or two tea.

These or two teas have become the favorites of many middle-level officials.

With Yan Jing's background and identity, he actually drank a little tea, which surprised King Yu.

"Everyone in the world said that I, Li Heng, was even more stingy than Master Yan!

King Yu took the teacup and took a sip.

Yan Jing smiled and said, "Your Highness, the salary of the subordinates can only afford to drink one or two teas. As for the assets in the family, they are not obtained by Yan Jing, how dare you squander it at will?"

"No wonder the emperor valued you. I admire this ethics too!"

King Yu nodded and said, "I have something to do when I come here this time. I plan to ask Yuan Shu for advice!"

"Your Highness, please speak!"

Yan Jing quickly responded.

In this Tang Dynasty, the emperor is the supreme being that cannot be offended.

And below the emperor is the Zongren Mansion and the King of Honor, Li Heng.

Because the clan mansion of the Tang Dynasty not only manages the royal family, but also the nobles of the dynasty.

Yan Jing did not have a title, but their Yan Mansion was also a meritorious person in the founding of the country and a hereditary first-rank Zhenjunhou. His elder brother has now inherited the title of Zhenjunhou.

"The emperor appointed Zhao Bingxu, the second son of the Zhao family, as the first-rank rich and noble marquis, but I went to check it out. Our rich and noble marquis are in poverty!"

"Yuan Shu, what do you think about this?"

“…”

When Yan Jing heard the question of King Yu, he wanted to say, I would sit and watch.

But if you really answer this, you may be able to slap him away with a slap.

"Your Highness, can you ask how many industries this Fuguihou originally had under his name?"

"……No!"

King Yu was stunned for a moment and gave an answer that made him laugh and cry.

"That's amazing. Since this wealthy and noble marquis has no permanent property under his name, how did he accomplish what he had done before?"

"He has some disciples, and he is filial!"

"Also, his sister's dowry is also in charge of his hands!"

"Dingbei Hou Yuan is married to his wife's dowry!"

Yan Jing paused a little. Isn’t this the dowry of his sworn brother’s mother? This is the item that returns to the original owner!

When King Yu saw Yan Jing pausing, he only thought that he had a good idea.

As a result, what made King Yu collapse was that Yan Jing said, "Your Highness, King Yu, I think that since the Marquis of Dingbei is in charge of his sister's dowry, Xiaoyilang has grown up now. Will the dowry be returned to the original owner?"

"If Fuguihou felt that the dowry should not be given to his sister's son, then, according to my Tang Dynasty, this dowry should be inherited by the Lord of Defu Township!"

"In this way, you have the right to inquire about this property!"

When he heard this at first glance, King Yu should jump up happily.

However, the Tang Dynasty Zongren Mansion also has laws. If the property is in the name of minors, the Zongren Mansion only has the right to supervise and has no right to draw taxes.

The Lord of Defu Township is not one year old!

According to the rules set by Emperor Taizu of the Tang Dynasty, can a woman live for 16 years if she becomes an adult at the age of 16?

King Yu almost didn't spit out an old blood.

"Yuanshu, is there no other way?"

"You know, the life in the clan mansion is so sad!"

"Your Highness, please forgive me for being powerless!"

Yan Jing decisively stated that he had no tricks.

What a joke, these dowries are his eldest niece, and he is an uncle. Can he help outsiders plot their niece's things?

I, Yan Jing, have unparalleled virtues and are absolutely unable to do such shameless things.

King Yu came and left with melancholy.

However, he decided to urge Zhao Bingxu. As long as Zhao Bingxu continued to control the dowry, he would always have a way to detain something from his hands.

But what made King Yu even more sad and angry was that as soon as he returned to the Zongren Mansion, he received a document sent by Zhao Bingxu, the Marquis of Fugui, asking the Zongren Mansion to supervise all the dowry he was about to hand over to his sister's granddaughter, Defu Township Lord, as well as the various industries derived from the dowry over the years.

Looking at the boxes of various documents and copying, King Yu felt that his heart was bleeding.

There is no way, the clan mansion is really poor.

The clan mansion created by Emperor Taizu is purely for serving the royal family and nobles. There are a lot of things to do, but what about the money?

Relying on the property of nobles, taxes are drawn.

The court taxes, commercial taxes are ten taxes and one tax, and the land taxes are fifteen taxes.

The ten taxes of commercial tax are easy to understand, which means that merchants earn ten cents and pay taxes of one cent.

The 15-1 tax for land tax is for tenants and landlords, and the landlords pay another cent of tax. The tenants do not need to bear any land tax.

Of course, if it is your own land, it will be five taxes and one tax.

What is the tax collection of the Zongren Mansion?

Land tax is thirty tax, one for commercial tax, twenty tax.

If this is the case, then the life of the Zongren Mansion will not be sad. However, Emperor Taizu formulated an incremental and subtraction method, which means that the tax rate will change based on the income of the nobles.

Anyway, the life of the Zongren Mansion is really sad until the end.

King Yu also wanted the nobles to buy more industries, but with more industries, they were basically working for the clan mansion. Are the nobles stupid? Of course they are not stupid.

The result is that the nobles are stuck in the standards and control the industry [Liangcheng     www.lcds.info].

If necessary, separate homes.

The one I was assigned to still enjoy the protection of the noble family, but it is no longer among the nobles.

Tax collection?

Collect a gross tax!

Every midnight, King Yu would be full of resentment towards Emperor Taizu. Isn’t this a trick to descendants?

Everyone knows that if you want a horse to run, you have to give it food.

But in the clan mansion, he did older work, handled older disputes, and received a meager salary. The worst thing is that many times, the work he did was offensive.

"What kind of evil did I commit in my previous life?"

He was in charge of the sect's mansion and his power was only under Emperor Yongping, but only he knew the ups and downs of this.

What? Why isn't it sweet?
