The press library under the name of this young master pays nearly 80,000 yuan in annual taxes and the huge profit-making industries such as the glass yard are as high as 200,000 yuan. In short, the total amount of taxes required to be paid to the Tang Dynasty every year is nearly 500,000 yuan.

The current industrial and commercial tax ratio in the Tang Dynasty has reached an astonishing 37%. It can be said that if the development continues at this rate, the proportion of agricultural tax can be almost negligible for up to twenty or thirty years.

"Son-in-law, it seems that what you said to me back then is really going to become reality..." Uncle Li sighed with emotion, patted the statistics on the table and said to me with a smile. This is last year's report, and there are all dense numbers on it. Well, it is numbers, not the account book that could only write dozens of words on one page, but was replaced by the numbers invented and created by this young master to record it.

Last night, under the persuasion of my sweet words, Cheng Luanluan finally shyly danced a stunning and cool belly dance for my husband, my limbs, the body that was as soft as snakes, as fast as a snake, and the cool and sweat-free ice-skinned and jade bones, teased me, and almost wanted to peel off the human skin on my body, and put it on the wolf skin. I didn't sleep all night and had sex with our beautiful beauty for almost a night. At dusk, Cheng Luanluan was begging for mercy like a candy, and then I hugged the beauty and took a nap with a little regret.

But who would have thought that Uncle Li was nervous again and called me into the palace early in the morning. Uncle Li didn't talk nonsense to me and just got to the point.

"In the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, the income from industrial and commercial taxes accounted for a little more than 100% of the 100% of the taxes in the Tang Dynasty. Now, the proportion is close to 40%, and the treasury is getting richer. The people can live and work in peace..." Along the side, Gao Shilian, the elder of the Tang Dynasty, also looked happy. The Tang Dynasty was not the Han Dynasty. Although on the surface, at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it also clamored to emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce, and once mentioned the order of the Han Dynasty to detain merchants at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, prohibiting industrial and commercial practitioners from becoming officials and other means to suppress merchants. But in fact, it was just a matter of thunder and rain. Uncle Li shouted slogans to the sky, and the prosperity of a large number of international business travelers and the Tang Dynasty's trade exchanges was even far more prosperous than that of the Sui Dynasty. Moreover, although merchants were not officials, they were still furious and frivolous.

Of course, businessmen are not an official. This is just a fart now, not to mention others. This young master is now considered a wealthy businessman, but he is also an official in the court, and even the son-in-law of Uncle Li.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Even Uncle Li doesn't still have shares in my products, let alone Prince Li Zhi and several other princes who are close friends with me and playboys. Now, the Tang Dynasty has not yet had any connection with merchants, so there are only a few.

"My father-in-law, you are looking for a son-in-law, I don't know what you need to serve." I felt a vague feeling that Uncle Li would definitely not be as simple as bragging about what he did last year, otherwise he would not have let the Minister of Revenue and me squat together.

"Do you remember the suggestion you made to me back then?" Uncle Li smiled and took a sip of the ginkgo tea ceremony. The Minister of Revenue also looked at me with a smile on his face. I understood that Uncle Li really wanted to carry out tax reform. Back then, the Tang Dynasty was in the stage of using troops everywhere, and the country's will was mainly military. Now, the surrounding areas of the Tang Dynasty have been relatively stable, and war no longer only uses force, trade, culture, spies, in short, any means that are beneficial to our Tang Empire must be used.

Moreover, in recent years, the country's grain reserves in the Tang Dynasty have reached an unprecedented peak. Domestic tax revenue has also doubled, and the country is stable. In the eyes of the people, such a happy life is extremely rare. In short, in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was a praise for the political institutions of the Tang Dynasty ruled by Uncle Li. Foreign countries were impressed. Even if Uncle Li lifted his butt, he could scare the surrounding vassal states to tremble.

Of course, although Tubo and Western Turks did not sell their responsibilities, their current strength was unable to shake the Tang Dynasty's rule over the surrounding areas. Moreover, the leaders of Turks and Tubo were very rational. However, it was precisely because of this cautious reason that the Tang Dynasty was easier to take the pace of its own reform without worrying about how much trauma the war would bring to the country.

Just as Uncle Li said at this stage, resisting the enemy from the country and eliminating all potential threats can bring enough time and space to the Tang Dynasty to develop economic, cultural, life, and military level. Well, the old guy copied my words again, but forget it, we don’t have the leisure to argue with this imperialist leader of the Tang Dynasty.

“…so,” Uncle Li

, and then said: "Now that the country is stable and the business tax is getting heavier, I have considered the tax reform proposal that the son-in-law said. However, it took too long to remember many of my joints. I just talked about this with my elders, and I remembered you, a kid, so I came here to let you explain the tax reform described with me a few years ago in detail."

—

Uncle Li finally told me why he dragged me out of bed early in the morning. However, Uncle Li's words really made me suffer a great disaster. At that time, many of my young masters copied the practices of the world, which were not very applicable to the current Tang Dynasty. The most important thing is that tax reform is not like military reform. Military reform only involves one aspect of the Tang Dynasty, while taxation is a major event related to everyone in the world. How can we be careless?

"Why are you hesitating? Could it be that I feel that it is inconvenient to speak in front of me?" Mr. Gao was gray-haired and sickly, but the spirit in his eyes was still extremely sharp. I quickly shook my head and said, "It has absolutely nothing to do with Mr. Gao. It's just that this matter is of great importance and it involves too wide. You must be careful."

"Haha, this statement from a virtuous son-in-law is considered a matter of a conspiracy in the country. However, I am not willing to wait any longer. It has been four years since the eighteenth year of Zhenguan to conquer Liaodong. Now that the world is peaceful, the people of the Tang Dynasty have a good life. However, I remember a conversation between Wei Qing and I in the Qinzheng Hall that year..."

Uncle Li's eyes showed a little sad expression and said slowly, when he was dealing with government affairs, a minister asked the wise monarch of the Tang Dynasty to pay attention to his health and not to be too tired. However, Uncle Li said this: "Governing the country is like curing a disease. Even if the disease is cured, it is better to protect it. If you indulge yourself and get sick again, it will be unsuccessful. Now China is in peace and all the barbarians are submissive. It is true that I have been so happy since ancient times, but I am cautious every day, but I am afraid of it, so I want to hear from you many suggestions and disputes."

No matter what others answered, the words of Uncle Wei Zheng became a model explanation of the idiom to be prepared for danger in times of peace. This young master’s profession is a teacher, so I remember deeply that Uncle Wei Zheng replied: “I do not think it is happy to be at peace with internal and external security, but I am happy to be prepared for danger in times of peace.”

Sure enough, after Uncle Li spoke out the answer between Uncle Wei Zheng and him, he looked sad: "Wei Qing's words were still in his ears, but he had passed away. I feel so sad!"

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"I would like to mourn your Majesty. It depends on Your Majesty if you have such a prosperous era in the Tang Dynasty. If Lord Wei has a spirit in the sky, he will be enough to find out that Your Majesty values ​​him so much..." Gao Shilian said first to comfort him. Uncle Li nodded silently, and then looked at me. "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, be prepared for your thoughts, be prepared for any trouble. Son-in-law, I am asking you for advice on my preparations for the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years."

Uncle Li, such a monarch, can take people as mirrors, history as mirrors, be cautious at all times, think about the people of the world, and work hard for the happiness of the people of China. With such an emperor, can we not create the prosperous era of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty? With such a wise monarch, how could the Tang Dynasty not dominate this great era?

I got off the bed and bowed to Uncle Li: "Because of Your Majesty's love, I have the will to plan for my Tang Dynasty and the people of China, even if I am confused, I will still be willing to refuse. Please let Your Majesty go with me for a while, and after I have carefully considered it, I will record all the relevant ideas on paper and submit them to Your Majesty, and I will ask Your Majesty to personally decide."

"Haha, okay, I am worthy of being the Qilin son of the Fang family. No matter what I ordered, I have never seen a wise son-in-law scream hard or tired. I can get this good minister, so that I can get the achievements of Fang. "Uncle Li helped me up with joy, and said warmly with a black beard under my chin.

"Your Majesty's words are true. Among the younger generation, this is the son. I see that after the nobles of the Tang Dynasty, those who can achieve success are only three or four. But those who can be so young but can devote their wisdom and efforts to do not do their own things, but only those who can do this will be the one who can do the tricks of the world." Mr. Gao Shilian Gao also had an expression of 'I highly optimistic about you'.
