Chapter 556: Homecoming Tax Collection

When he heard the county magistrate say he wanted to deal with the common people, Captain Xiao and Master Qian showed extraordinary surprise.

"That's right, don't look at me with suspicion, just to deal with the Wan family by dealing with the common people." The county magistrate continued confidently:

"I decided that from now on, Captain Xiao and Qian Shiye will split into two groups, each with a team of brothers, and will squat at Wanfu Entertainment City day and night. All the people involved in riding bicycles will charge the same amount of entertainment tax. That is to say, if a certain person consumes one tael of silver in Wanfu Entertainment City, our government will charge one tael of entertainment tax. If this ordinary person consumes ten taels of silver, then our government will charge ten taels of entertainment tax. The tax silver collected will be deducted by you and the remaining half will be handed over to our officials. And so on, this should not be difficult to understand."

"Entertainment tax? This is a tax type I have never heard of. I wonder if the people can understand it?" Mr. Qian said with concern.

"Increasing taxes is to keep pace with the times. Didn't there be such entertainment programs before? Since there is now, my government cannot be left behind. It doesn't matter if the people don't understand. I can issue formal yamen documents. With formal procedures, it will be reasonable and legal for you to collect tax bank. As long as you are willing to work with me and be loyal to me, you will never treat you badly." The county magistrate, a means of avoiding his edge and bullying the weak, was indeed thought of by all kinds of possibilities after some hard thinking.

"The adults have thought carefully, and my subordinates are more confident. The adults' idea is really great. If we can't afford to offend the Wan family, then we will deal with those playful people. What should we do when we see the Wan family? They take their money, and we can't take care of each other." Mr. Qian also felt that the county magistrate's method was really good and he praised him.

"In order to avoid conflicts and conflicts with the Wan family, you should try to get a little further away from the entertainment city as much as possible, just block the intersections of the people going back and forth. I have conducted a detailed investigation before. There were exactly two intersections back and forth, and Captain Xiao and Master Qian were responsible for one. I also took a brief look. The flow of people back and forth between the two days was roughly the same, so how much tax and silver can be collected in the end is also related to your respective abilities. I have handed over the roundabout tactics to you. The specific details depend on your own." The county magistrate was like an elder, carefully reminding him, and the ultimate goal was to collect more tax and silver.

Under the guidance and wisdom of the county magistrate, Master Qian and Captain Xiao each selected their own decent subordinates and began to prepare for collecting taxes and silver.

The next day, Master Qian led his men to carry a large sign with a few big words "toll station" on it. At the same time, he prepared a long and thick wooden stick as a release bar and walked excitedly towards the intersection where he was responsible.

Captain Xiao was not outdone. Although there was no sign, it made a huge flag with the "Tax Office" eye-catching words. Captain Xiao also tailored several sets of special clothes overnight, and the big word "Tax" was written on the front chest and back of the clothing.
