Regarding the question of whether local trade barriers are re-established, under the attention of the north and south provinces, the ministers in the court quarreled for nearly half a month. Emperor Zhu Youxiao has not made a ruling. The newspapers basically have a wind direction every day. Businessmen in the new policy area are dominant, and merchants in the south are dominant.&1t;/p>

Half a month later, Zhu Youxiao saw that his appetite was almost overwhelmed, so he made a major ruling.&1t;/p>

"Notes outside, notes outside, the court restores local trade barriers."&1t;/p>

"Notes, notes, the court restores trade barriers and allows southern merchants to apply for tax payments."&1t;/p>

&1t;/p>

That afternoon, major newspapers in Beijing added additional publications and printed a copy of the number outside. As soon as these number outside newspapers came out, they were "snatched" by people all over the streets.&1t;/p>

"The morning court on the sixth day of the fourth month of the year of Ji Si. After a long debate, the cabinet suggested to the emperor that the trade barrier system be restored and import taxes are charged to goods outside the new policy area. Southern merchants are also allowed to actively apply for tax payment and report, and their goods can also be exempted from import and export taxes to enter the new policy area market. The emperor then agreed that his decree will begin to be implemented in May..."&1t;/p>

"After the morning court, the reporter interviewed the cabinet assistant Shen Wei. Shen Wei said: Nowadays, the different administrative systems of the Ming Dynasty north and south have led to different commodity production costs. The abolishing of trade barriers is unfair to the industrial and commercial circles in the new policy area. Restoring trade barriers is to build a more fair market competition atmosphere. The second is to restore local trade barriers, which is also to ensure the fiscal and taxation of the imperial court in the new policy areas. At the same time, given that the industrial and commercial people in the old provinces with new policy are all Ming people, they should not favor one or the other. If any merchant is willing to take the initiative to report to the tax bureau and pay taxes, their goods can also enter the new policy commodity market without any obstacles."&1t;/p>

After the Daming Daily reported these news, small and medium-sized businessmen in northern provinces cheered, restoring trade barriers in the new policy areas meant that external threats were eliminated.&1t;/p>

As for merchants outside the new policy area to report to the tax bureau, they can avoid this trade barrier after paying taxes. Naturally, they have nothing to say. Everyone pays taxes, and there is nothing to say under fair competition. If they can't fight that way, they can't blame others.&1t;/p>

As for businessmen in southern provinces, after having tasted the sweetness, if you want to continue to taste the sweetness, you have to apply for tax payment and report.&1t;/p>

It's like a strange mugwort. After giving the lollipop a few bites to the kindergarten child, he took the lollipop back and told the child that if you want to continue eating the lollipop, you have to hand over your underwear. And rely on him as the boss...&1t;/p>

After this result came out, trade barriers in the new policy areas in May 9th year of the Apocalypse were rebuilt again, and all goods from external provinces entering the new policy provinces must pay import and export tax.&1t;/p>

Many small and medium-sized businessmen in the south decisively handed over their "underwear" and ran to the tax bureau in the provincial capital city to report. After this policy came out, the tax bureau only set up one in the provincial capital city of each southern province. It is not so convenient to run around, but it has to run away even if it is inconvenient! Otherwise, how can you eat lollipops?&1t;/p>

This model cannot collect taxes efficiently, because these merchants are located in reformed provinces after all, but more taxes are not very important. The most important thing is to successfully differentiate private capital in unreformed provinces. Let those small and medium-sized merchants fully realize that supporting reform means that they can get greater benefits, and the interests of them conflict with those big capital merchants.&1t;/p>

Unlike before, the large capital businessmen in Jiangnan opposed reform. When the small and medium-sized businessmen below were scared to death when they heard that they had to pay taxes, they began to vigorously oppose reform.&1t;/p>

Now that small and medium-sized businessmen who have tasted the sweetness have taken the initiative to pay taxes, this is not forced by the court! The demonstration effect it plays is very huge.&1t;/p>

In economic activities dominated by state-owned capital, small and medium-sized businessmen have a huge role and their economic share is also large. They can reach about half of them. And under the control of those large capital chaebols in the Jiangnan region, ordinary small and medium-sized businessmen also have a large market share.&1t;/p>

When the small and medium-sized businessmen in Jiangnan realize that reform is beneficial to them, they can also drive the workers and farmers at the bottom.&1t;/p>

The tax bureaus of various provinces have just been established, and 6 continue to report, and more and more small and medium-sized merchants paying taxes. Of course, these merchants are factory owners and workshop owners. They can only break through the trade barriers in the new policy areas after reporting and paying taxes. Those big capital merchants can hold on, but they may not be able to hold on. Since they have found a way out, they will naturally have to rush in.&1t;/p>

The purpose has been reached, you can continue to give some sweetness, and sometimes you can get a gift when collecting taxes. Don't be too serious, as long as it can achieve the purpose of differentiation.&1t;/p>

At that time, win over a group, isolate a group, and suppress a group, and the private capital forces in Jiangnan can be solved.&1t;/p>

The chaebols in Jiangnan could not detect the intentions of the court at this time, but this was a very direct conspiracy! It was beyond defense.&1t;/p>

Public opinion in the Jiangnan region also became quite loose at this time. After all, under the continuous bombing of the Daming Daily, the Jiangnan chaebols could not monopolize the trend of public opinion.&1t;/p>

While Jiangnan capital merchants were struggling with the issue of reform or not reform, the industrial revolution in the new policy area had already begun vigorously.&1t;/p>

The roar of machines is increasing day by day, and the number of steam engines is increasing day by day. Of course, the problem that follows is that coal burning causes a lot of smoke and dust. Some industrial areas have become dark, but productivity has exploded directly compared to the past.&1t;/p>

Steam engines are also being used in more and more fields, and various processing industries and manufacturing industries that require power have used steam engines.&1t;/p>

This year, the first batch of private businessmen bought steam engines. They applied steam engines to a larger production field, and their productivity has been greatly improved.&1t;/p>

As the saying goes, a single branch is not spring. While state-owned capital uses steam engines, this thing really needs to be popularized with private capital in order to comprehensively improve productivity.&1t;/p>

Moreover, the performance of steam engines is constantly developing. If state-owned capital enterprises take the lead in popularizing steam engines, the steam engine production capacity will be placed there, and in the end, they will have to sell the mature steam engines to private capital, and the state-owned capital will have to replace them with new steam engines.&1t;/p>

Therefore, the best route is to be popularized simultaneously, and the steam engine owned by state-owned capital dominates the market. Therefore, the machinery manufacturing plant allocates one-quarter of the steam production capacity for sale to private factories.&1t;/p>

After these private-owned factory owners obtained steam engines, their profits suddenly increased greatly. In contrast, private-owned capital outside the new policy area could not buy steam engines at all. The banner of private-owned businessmen in the new policy area to support the new policy has been raised even higher.&1t;/p>
