Now it seems that there are no shortcuts.
Paused.
Li Er looked at Qin Mu and pondered: "Even if I agree with Yi's suggestion, if this matter is implemented, it may not be so simple."
"There are so many cities in the Tang Dynasty, if a taxation department is set up in each city, how many people will be needed?"
"It always takes time for us to prepare, as fast as a year, as slow as two years, what do you think about this transitional period?"
Li Er also saw it.
If it doesn't cost money, I'm afraid it can't be done.
Qin Mu said lightly, "It's okay. I have a trick. I can make merchants pay taxes voluntarily within two or three years, and they will pay more."
"But I just don't know if His Majesty can agree."
The words fall.
Li Er nodded hurriedly.
"Agreed, what do I disagree with?"
"Anyway, the matter has come to this point, it must be resolved, right?"
"Say it, I will agree to any trick."
In order to pay taxes, Li Er really went all out.
Dai Zhou and Li Chengqian also looked at Qin Mu with surprise on their faces.
They knew that the son-in-law would definitely have a coup.
Followed by.
Qin Mu said slowly: "Your Majesty, is there any restriction on the descendants of businessmen in our Tang Dynasty to enter official positions?"
heard.
Li Er was stunned, and then nodded, "Yes, although Datang has encouraged the development of commerce these years, there are still restrictions on the participation of descendants of merchants in the imperial examination, right?"
"Is there any relationship between these two things?"

Ganlu Temple.
outer hall.
Listen to Qin Mu's words.
Li Er, Dai Zhou and Li Chengqian were very confused.
They really didn't understand the direct connection between businessmen's taxation and whether their descendants could participate in the imperial examination.
Qin Mu glanced at Li Er and Li Er and the others, and muttered.
"Of course it has something to do with it."
"Now that the agricultural development of Datang is very mature and the country has no shortage of food, the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business has long since become a thing of the past."
"Since this is the case, should the restrictions on merchants be lifted because of the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce? Especially the rule that the children of merchants are not allowed to take the imperial examination to become officials."
"As long as the imperial court promulgates a decree, all merchants who take the initiative to pay taxes in full can cancel the restriction that their children are not allowed to enter the imperial examination. Do you think they will still evade taxes?"
The words landed.
Li Er, Dai Zhou and Li Chengqian were all shocked.
Yup!
The official career of the descendants of merchants can be used to bind taxes. In this way, how can anyone evade taxes?
It's too late for them to take the initiative to pay taxes.
Followed by.
Qin Mu raised his brows and continued: "Not only this one, His Majesty can also add a few more, for example, if it is found that it is not enough to pay taxes, its descendants will not be allowed to take the imperial examination within three years."
"Those who have tax evasion after their children become officials will be included in the promotion assessment and their children's promotion will be restricted."
"In this way, they will definitely pay the tax in full."
"It's not a problem for this move to continue for a few years."
"With this period of time as a buffer, the household bureaucrats can definitely be recruited, and taxation departments in various cities can also be established."
The words landed.
Li Er, Dai Zhou and Li Chengqian felt suddenly enlightened.
That's what happened.
Li Er looked at Qin Mu, and couldn't help but praised: "Good! This move by the son-in-law is indeed worth trying, and it will definitely succeed!"
Li Chengqian echoed: "Father is right. To be honest, these restrictions on merchants should have been lifted a long time ago. We don't have any losses, we just did what we should do."
"But it is to solve the problem of tax evasion and tax evasion."
Dai Zhou exclaimed, "The son-in-law's move shocked the old minister, and the old minister went back to draft the document."
The matter of tax evasion by merchants in the Tang Dynasty is urgent, and it has bothered Dai Zhou for a long time.
Dai Zhou's heart that has been hanging has been relieved.
Qin Mu remained calm, picked up his cup and took a sip.
He really thought about this matter, but it just so happened that the household department encountered such a problem today.
After the tax evasion issue was settled, Li Er was in a good mood.
Li Chengqian and Dai Zhou didn't linger, and left in a hurry to deal with it.
.......
half a month later.
As long as you take the initiative to pay taxes in full and take the initiative to make up for tax evasion, the news that the imperial examinations for the descendants of merchants will be lifted once the news comes out.
In an instant, Datang was detonated.
The news came out from Chang'an City and swept all over the Tang Dynasty.
Merchants praised the court's decision-making wisely.
The merchants who took the initiative to pay back the taxes broke through the threshold of the prefect's mansion in each city.
For a while, instead of losing money, Li Er made a fortune.
The merchants in the city also praised the imperial court constantly.
"I really didn't expect that the descendants of us merchants can also become officials through the imperial examination. Your Majesty is really sympathetic to the difficulty of us merchants."
"Damn it, I still need to pay the taxes. I should hurry up. If this delays my son's future, my son will have to sever his father-son relationship with me."
"Hahaha, I've been waiting for this day for too long. I said that the Tang Dynasty's policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce has long existed in name only.
"Your Majesty is really our Tang Qingtian, who actually broke the restrictions on merchants becoming officials. From now on, I must never evade taxes again."
.......
The merchants are grateful to the court.
For a while, Datang's tax evasion was suppressed very effectively.
......
Chang'an City.
Qin Mansion.
lobby.
Qin Mu ate sea crabs, lobsters and other seafood while reading newspapers.
This time, he lifted the restrictions on the imperial examinations for the descendants of merchants to become officials, which won a wave of praise for the court.
Xiangcheng murmured at the side: "Master, we have to eat less seafood from now on."
heard.
Qin Mu was taken aback, and asked, "Why? Our family doesn't seem to be so poor that we can't even afford a meal of seafood, right?"
These days, Qin Mu suddenly fell in love with eating seafood, so the mansion eats more frequently.
But don't talk about eating seafood.
With Qin Mu's financial resources, it is no problem to kill cattle and eat them every day.
Xiangcheng replied: "That's not true, it's just that seafood is getting more and more expensive, and the price has tripled."
three times?
Qin Mu pulled the crab roe into his mouth and said in surprise, "Why did the price increase so much?"
Xiangcheng explained: "It's going to continue to rise! The stall owner said that people's lives are better now, and there are more people eating seafood, so the supply is in short supply, so the price will naturally increase."
heard.
Qin Mu nodded, this really caught him by surprise.
If so, he can set up a fishing company. There are so many marine resources, and it is a gift from nature, so it is not a competition for profit with the people.
Most importantly, he can also drive the further development of Datang's seafood industry.
Mind this.
Qin Mu already had a perfect plan in mind.
"Husband?" Xiangcheng looked at Qin Mu who was in deep thought, and slightly frowned.
Qin Mu came back to his senses, and said lightly, "It's okay, from now on we'll just eat our own seafood."
"Own family?" Xiangcheng was puzzled, "Why doesn't my concubine know that our family still has a seafood industry?"
Qin Mu smiled, "Not yet, but there will be in the future."
The two were talking.
Li Er broke in from outside the hall.
Xiangcheng looked at Li Er, and said in a blessing manner, "I have seen my father."
Li Er waved his hand, "There is no need to be too polite."
Qin Mu looked at Li Er with a dizzy head, "Your Majesty, can't you let me be quiet for a day?"
"Tsk..." Li Er glared at Qin Mu, "Listen to what you said yourself?"
"When did I never let you be clean?"
"I came here specially to thank you today."
"Thank me?" Qin Mu felt puzzled for a while.
Li Erhui thanked him, it was really the sun coming out from the west.
Li Er took the opportunity to sit down, picked up a lobster and began to shell it, "Of course, your move is really good."
"I even got back all the money I got from tax evasion in the past."
The effect of Qin Mu's move made Li Er very excited.
The key is to see the money back.
Qin Mu didn't care about this, and murmured: "Your Majesty, don't tell me beforehand, I have a plan to make a fortune, will you listen?"
Get rich?
Hearing these two words, Li Er's eyes lit up instantly.
