Chapter 1383
"Since that's the case, we have reached a preliminary agreement on setting up the gates, entry procedures and access to the road. Let the documents be recorded first, and then the details are clarified. Next, we can talk about the business affairs between our two dynasties." Fan Shixian breathed a sigh of relief.
After Li Ang came, King Rui gave him his place. After seeing the prince's wink, Li Ang said, "The next thing we want to talk about is the tax rate. This tax rate is of great importance. If the tax rate is high, it will reduce the profits of commodities and be unfavorable to the development of commerce."
"But if it is too low, the fiscal revenue of both dynasties will be affected. How to balance the interests of merchants and governments is also a difficult problem. Our dynasty is unwilling to make things difficult for Da Kun. I think the same is true for Gui Dynasty. Both sides can benefit from it. The best result is."
When Fan Shixian on the opposite side heard this, he said that the old world has come, and the tariffs after trading are the top priority. "Mr. Li said that, so is our opinion. No matter what the tax rate is, the two dynasties are equal."
What I mean is that if you are high, I will be high. If you are low, I will be low. Anyway, I will be in trouble!
Li Ang thought the other party was going to say something clever, but in the end he was just a scoundrel. He hadn't had a good rest. He was angry when he heard such slutty words. Li Ang gasped and said, "In fact, this is true."
I remember that when Dongyue and Nanying negotiated tax rates, there were twists and turns. There were also maritime merchants participating in the middle. In order to protect the interests of the three parties, the tax rates were also reduced again and again. Even after the formulation, there were ups and downs in the middle and not stable. ωωw..net
To put it bluntly, it was all based on interests. His Majesty transferred him over quickly, because he was worried that the prince who had no experience would suffer in this area, but the other party was making trouble, and Li Ang cursed in his heart.
"Our Maritime Manufacturing Department needs to remove and buy imported products before allowing merchants to engage in private trade. The same is true for the past maritime trade goods in Nanying in the past." Li Ang calmed down and said.
Seeing that the other party did not recognize him, Han Shitong sneered in his heart. He was one of the officials who resigned with Huang Tang. He was very proficient in the Dongyue paths, so he was ready to destroy the situation: "The so-called extraction means to extract one-tenth of the goods for population tax."
"As for Bomai, it is the government that purchases some goods at the current price and sells them to the outside world at a higher price to facilitate more profits. The government's participation will leave less profit margin for civil and commercial enterprises. What does this have to do with tariffs?"
"It's impossible to say that in order to make your government more profitable, you should work hard on tax points. Such things can only be made to the people, but we can't give in to tax points." Han Shitong gave a heavy blow: "It's unreasonable for the withdrawal of the Bobuy system in Dongyue, not the big Kun."
"This is a dispute between your Dongyue government and civil and commercial governments. If I remember correctly, this kind of activity started with maritime trade. The Maritime Bureau has used this set for a long time and is an unreasonable thing, so why should it be taken for granted?"
Li Ang was furious when he heard this. In fact, as Han Shitong said, the draw of Bomai was a thing that the government forced to make for profit.
Whether it is the imperial merchants or the civil merchants, they have always been dissatisfied with this move. It is just the three imperial merchants. It is wrong. The three imperial merchants in the past mediated more with them for this matter. It depends on who is stronger and who is weaker. The strong side always has to retreat.
The Maritime Trade Department also once had no profits in this area due to the low profits of maritime trade, and many maritime merchants withdrew from it. The tax revenue of the treasury was greatly reduced. After this incident alarmed His Majesty, they quickly adjusted and made concessions.
But if you think of it as unreasonable, it has never been. No matter how unjust things are, they have been in the sun for a long time. They have long forgotten that this thing was originally designed by the government for profit and should not have existed.
After Han Shitong finished speaking, he looked at Li Ang with disdain: "The point now is that we Da Kun will never do such things to harm the interests of civil and commercial affairs. The Empress Dowager and Vice President Feng who are present today came on behalf of civil and commercial affairs, and they cannot make false statements."
Feng Bao, who had never spoken, said at this time: "The merchants of Dakun are extremely concerned about business matters. Caomin can come with the Queen Mother, which is the reason for the civil and commercial people to pay attention to this matter, and Your Majesty also agrees."
Compared with the two, King Rui was so ashamed that he wanted to plunge his head into the soil. Li Ang was sure to be here to bless him, not to pull his back?
Li Ang was so stuck that he couldn't speak. Fan Shixian took the opportunity to say: "So this matter is not within our considerations. It only exists in the East Vietnamese territory. We will not consider it. The formulation of tariff points should not be based on this."
Next was a verbal fight. After Li Ang was poked on the back, he spoke less and less, and the tax points were solved smoothly.
The courtyard here is very lively. On the wall city not far away, there is a round table with various fruits and snacks on the table. Water is burning on the small stove next to it, and Rouji is in a daze.
Although Qin Feng and Xiao Lingyao did not arrive at the scene, they also rushed to the southwest to supervise the battle. From this perspective, they could still vaguely see the cafe with a telescope. Someone arrived in a hurry just now and could see it, but it was too far away and could only vaguely recognize a figure.
Rouji felt that it should be Song Qingming, and now she was a little distracted. Xiao Lingyao stroked her stomach with one hand and held the fruit with the other, looking at Rouji's distracted appearance. This person was rarely distracted.
I don’t know how the negotiations are going on now, but the people sent out not only know Da Kun, but also the rules and regulations of Dongyue.
I won’t discuss everything today, and there will be very detailed records sent tonight. Now it is just the time for the two sides to play.
"When Nanying and Dongyue were at a disadvantage when they were playing against each other, they later gained the upper hand by relying on their trade advantages and successfully resolved the crisis." Qin Feng thought of the old things, and had to think of how Huang Tang jumped out: "Who can become an important chess this time?"
Qin Feng didn't know that Han Shitong unexpectedly jumped out, and his mother also performed well.
When the news came at night, it was recorded in detail what the two sides said and the scope of initial agreement, and the ones who came from Song Qingming were also exposed.
Looking at the words and sentences under the light, Qin Feng couldn't help but say: "Han Shitong, Minister of Rites, is interesting."
"With him here, Li Ang was so breathless. The Maritime Service wanted to use the set in the southeast here, and would like to assimilate our big Kun?" Qin Feng sneered: "The more wool the government fetches, the smaller the living space for civil and commercial enterprises."
"The civil and commercial people are not fools. Will they insist on commerce without profit? Once they withdraw, the government will not even have the chance to fetch the wool. If it affects tax revenue, they can only adjust their strategies. If such a game lasts for a long time, it will be corruption."
