Chapter 391
But if you think about it carefully, it is actually not surprising.
After all, we have come from afar, and after all, we still bring tens of thousands of elite Chang'an troops. After all, road engineering is the top priority of the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty today.
In this case, it is normal to call everyone over to discuss the matter.
As for the way to raise the problem, it seems ordinary, but it is actually very particular.
Because this represents the most basic respect, it is to discuss and solve problems together, rather than to question or to question.
Otherwise, this will be difficult to handle.
People have a temper, such as the five surnames and Qi Wang, which have been passed down for many years, are even more so.
If you really think that they will swallow their anger and let others ride on their heads and shit on their heads if they really think that they will be so wrong.
The same is true for the local officials who came to the banquet. If you talk well, then you and I will be very happy, otherwise I will not have to give you face.
Therefore, everyone present had a good impression and the response was quite enthusiastic.
Wang Lang, who was the Xingyang Order on the spot, laughed loudly and said, "Of course, he responded to the call of the court, built a kiln to burn cement and built a new cement road."
"Yes, it's late autumn now, and it's the slack season. It's better to use this period of time to build roads."
"Don't worry, Mr. Weiyang, please tell Your Majesty that even without this inspection, I, Zheng, will have no choice but to pay attention to the roads in Xingyang!"
"The wages given to the people will definitely not be deducted. You must rest assured about this!"
“…”
The answer is quite simple.
The government orders for road construction have been issued long ago, but the situation is no longer as before. Everyone's attitude towards Chang'an has basically changed from boycotting in the past to getting closer.
In this case, fools know what to do.
Among them, Zheng is the best.
As the biggest beneficiary of the entry of each family into Chang'an this time, other families may still be a little reserved and will not do their best, but the Zheng family will definitely not.
Even they can pay the funds needed for road construction by themselves. In fact, they can't get a lot of money. Anyway, Curry's money is still lying down.
Chen Yuan smiled and raised his glass: "You are so righteous, so this cup will be thanked by you on behalf of the local people."
As the words came out, everyone raised their glasses, and there was another excitement.
Chen Yuan drank all his glass, ate the food, and said with a smile: "But then again, the country has absolutely no reason to make money fairly and for no reason.
Just like the Chang'an area, it is very clear that it is either the government debt to calculate interest rates, or the monument can be erected to get its name. In short, no matter how it is, it cannot be taken for nothing.
Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty Prefecture, because of its vast territory and many places without people, if you think about it carefully, the method of spreading Chang'an is not suitable.
In addition to the roads, I found that heating in private housing was also a big problem, especially this Shuobei generation, which was cold before the winter began, and in the middle of winter, it was probably going to freeze many people to death.
So I dared to think about it carefully and see if there is a suitable solution to solve all these problems together!"
It’s not slow or quick, just one person said.
Everyone listened carefully, including those little girls who followed the adults to the banquet.
Then I was very confused.
As the representative of his lineage, Zheng Renji subconsciously said after hearing this: "Solve all these problems together. Will Mr. Wei Yang be too impatient?"
"Yes, Mr. Wei Yang, everyone understands the truth, I understand and admire your mood, but how can you solve so many problems in this world?"
"The Xingyang Order made sense. I also believe that building roads is building roads, and heating people's housing is heating people's housing. Things are different, and the existing problems are different. It is really difficult to think of a method of both worlds and solve these problems in one fell swoop!"
“…”
Wang Lang and others also spoke one after another, with the same meaning, and two completely different things cannot be solved in one way.
It is even a bit unsolvable, because no matter whether it is road construction or heating in private houses, it is a super project at the entire national level.
At this time, it is not a question of whether you are willing to pay for it or not, but it is very likely that you can't afford it.
Zheng Liwan knew that if she dared to throw this problem out, it would prove that the men around her must have a solution.
Therefore, it is self-conscious or not, the heart is a little surging, and love and admiration in my eyes begin to flood again.
Chen Yuan listened to the arguments of these people, laughed and didn't speak until he almost calmed down, and said, "It's not easy, but it's not impossible.
I thought about it for an afternoon and had a rough idea. You might as well help me to consider it and see if it is feasible."
As he said that, he revealed his thoughts.
Actually very simple.
Isn’t it necessary to solve the problem of people’s housing heating? Then build brick factories and cement factories and sell bricks and cement to the people.
Isn’t it necessary to build a road and not to take everyone’s money in vain? Then let’s contract brick factories and cement factories to make profits through this.
Then those who run brick and cement plants will have to pay taxes, so that the country will have money to build roads in more places, carry out engineering and national defense construction.
Finally, whether it is to build roads or go to the factory to work, the people can get money to buy food, buy clothes, and obtain bricks and cement needed to build houses for heating.
This creates a basic closed loop.
The most important thing is that the traditional tax system has been broken.
Because the current commercial tax is very low, just the market entry tax is outrageously low.
Those who are really engaged in business transactions and have a lot of resources and wealth do not even pay taxes. For example, they have made so much money but have almost never paid taxes.
Throughout history, the country's fiscal and taxation have been spread to farmers.
But then again, those who are truly rich don’t pay taxes, but rely on the little taxes that farmers farm. Can the country develop and can it climb to technology?
It’s okay if the weather is good, and the weather is good, but once there is a natural disaster, it’s good to not starve to death!
So this is actually a good opportunity. On the one hand, it can solve practical problems, and on the other hand, it can take the opportunity to slowly establish the commercial tax system.
Everyone at the banquet did not expect that they had really come up with a solution.
The key is that it sounds good!
Brick factories and cement factories, judging from the current situation, the market is not very big. If you want to do it, how much money will you make?
And it’s not just money, but as long as you do it well, you also have a reputation in addition to money.
As for taxes, give it to it!
After all, today is different from the past. If you really have the same benefits as the past, you will have pockets of any kind. If you are not filial at all, you will be uneasy. To be honest, you will be uneasy.
Maybe one day I will be killed.
So, the wine was soon filled with praise, and the girls who had just fallen in love were even more beautiful and their hearts were full of joy.
Chen Yuan was also very satisfied and raised his glass and smiled, "That's what you want, you'll be in trouble. Regarding this matter, a memorial was written to order people to send it to Chang'an. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a reply in half a month."
