Chapter 720 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey?
"Have you heard that in the future, we will pay taxes directly to the tax office!"
"There is no need to go through the family or the village head!"
"There's no need to pay for it at all. You can pay as much as you should, not even a penny more!"
"I've heard about it too, and I heard that the labor service system has also been abolished and changed to paid service. It's just that people must be sent to participate to cooperate with the development of Hanzhong!"
"It's great now, our life is better than before!"
"Yeah, we don't have to be oppressed by the family any more. Why do we offshoots and non-direct descendants have to pay more taxes and do more hard labor? It's so unfair!"
"Yes, the patriarch can no longer order us now, that's great, my lord's idea is great!"
"I just heard that as a result, a lot of tax officials have been added, and the pressure on the lord must have increased. I don't know if the pressure on the lord has increased!"
"That's right, we'd rather pay more taxes than put such a good lord under too much pressure!"
"Everyone, don't worry, how can a character like a lord and god be overwhelmed by some small difficulties. In the future, if it really doesn't work, it won't be too late for us to support him!"
"Yes, yes, from now on, we no longer need to be inferior to the direct family members!"
"Yeah, the equality of everyone that the lord advocates is finally one step closer to us!"
"."
During this period of time, the common people talked most about the household census and the system of one household, one registration. This system obviously brought great benefits to ordinary people.
Because the accounts are clear, there is no need to be oppressed by those families anymore.
Of course, as far as the big family is concerned, they have indeed suffered huge losses, and they have never passed on their own taxes to others.
But Jiang Chen made the announcement himself, no matter how reluctant the other families were, they would not dare to resist.
In Hanzhong City, everyone knows what the consequences will be if they resist!
Facing this point, they only dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out. On this day, all the prominent merchants in Hanzhong City were summoned by Jiang Chen to the political discussion hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
Usually, only officials are eligible to enter this political hall.
Today, those merchants feel very honored to be able to let them in. After all, in the past dynasties, they did not have any identity and status.
But now, in Hanzhong, they can at least be respected, and their descendants can also gain fame, as long as you do business properly and don't do business that violates laws and regulations.
If you dare to do some illegal business, once you are caught, the punishment is not so serious. In addition to confiscating all your family property, future generations will not be able to obtain fame.
Such a strict system firmly controls the ambitions of those businessmen, and also prevents those businessmen from letting out their inner demons.
As a time traveler, Jiang Chen knew very well that the intelligence of the Central Plains people was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
As long as you can let them develop, the consequences will definitely be very serious.
In the new century where Jiang Chen lives, there are many wicked businessmen who laugh at the poor but not prostitutes. In order to make money, the businessmen have completely abandoned their conscience.
As a result, countless innocent people were ruthlessly slaughtered by these businessmen because of various food and drug problems, and they also suffered greatly.
Since Jiang Chen came to the Three Kingdoms, he understands the benefits of developing business, and at the same time, he also knows that if the businessmen's ambition and shame are not firmly controlled.
They will definitely transform into demons from hell. In a few years, all kinds of poisonous and harmful food will appear on people's tables one after another.
Jiang Chen's grasp is very strict, and these personnel are all system personnel selected by himself, they will not accept bribes, and they can firmly guard this.
As long as this head is opened well, it will be able to set a benchmark for businessmen in the future.
"This time, the Lord summoned us, isn't it because he wants to raise an army to punish us?"
"It shouldn't be, we don't seem to have done anything to resist!"
"Yes, my lord, you won't attack us just because they have ideas?"
"Not necessarily, there will always be some impulsiveness, maybe the lord wants to make an example to others!"
"Ugh"
Hearing this answer, many merchants sighed softly.
It's really been aggrieved recently, Jiang Chen's announcement made the power in their hands infinitely diluted, and in the future, their majesty will become weaker and weaker.
In the future, the control of family members will gradually become weaker and weaker.
This kind of thing is impossible to happen in other territories. They are all aristocratic families monopolizing the country's economy, and the lord can only discuss with them.
But it was different in Hanzhong, they could only follow Jiang Chen's footsteps.
This makes them, who are used to controlling the life and death of others, really uncomfortable, but many of Hanzhong's policies make them very obsessed with it.
This made them very contradictory, and it was difficult to make a choice.
"I haven't heard of anyone being arrested recently!"
"Have you heard??"
In the government hall, Jiang Chen did not appear, those businessmen were whispering there, they are all a group of people who put their interests first, and they are also a group of people who are most afraid of death.
They were afraid that some behavior would offend Jiang Chen, and they knew that when Jiang Chen raised his butcher's knife towards them, he would never show mercy.
"No, I don't know what's going on!"
"I hope it's not a bad thing, there have been too many bad things recently!"
"Yes, yes, yes, don't make extra trouble!"
"."
The businessmen are discussing there.
"The president is here, hurry up, ask the president what's going on!"
"Yes, go quickly!"
After a while, there was a commotion. Everyone turned to the entrance of the council hall, and a middle-aged man appeared in front of everyone's eyes. He was dressed in a fine attire and exuded majesty.
It looks like he has been in an important position for a long time. This person is none other than Zhen Yan, the current head of the Zhen family and the chairman of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce.
"President Zhen, let me tell you some news. What is the purpose of the Lord summoning me this time?"
"Yes, you are the future uncle of the country, you must know something!!"
"We are all members of the Chamber of Commerce. Please tell us a little bit."
As soon as he appeared, Zhen Yan was surrounded by a group of people. These people were also the mainstay of the entire Hanzhong City, and they were some huge families that controlled the entire Hanzhong economy.
They are also members of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce. Now, many people follow Zhen Yan. They understand that only by following Zhen Yan can they have a chance to make a fortune!
