Thirty-two: "..."

The atmosphere was very embarrassing for a time. He suddenly took out a crystal ball from his arms, called the queen, and said urgently: "Your Majesty, I apply for a transfer and return to the road of light to be a teacher."

Chapter 456 We Want To Collect Taxes

On the 32nd, the showy operation of applying for a transfer immediately stunned all the administrative staff who followed. Wasn't you the first to ask Ying to come?

Miss Queen in the crystal ball's expression was calm and unwavering: "Huh? Resurrection? You can understand at a glance, that guy resurrected you, and then you are afraid of death once you are resurrected?"

No. 32 said with an embarrassed expression: "You don't know how precious life is until you die once..."

"You are expensive!" Miss Queen said angrily, "Give me a good job. If you don't do it well, just give me a real death. This time, even the reincarnation of the dead will not be given to you."

After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone with a bang.

Thirty-two: "..."

Everyone was staring at him dumbfounded. After he was dumbfounded for a few seconds, he put away the crystal ball, turned his head to face Robb, and said loudly: "Hum, I...I...I'm not afraid of you, come on. ... duel."

The voice is trembling!

The administrative staff behind: "..."

Robb couldn't hold back, he burst out laughing: "Okay, don't be stupid, what are you doing in a duel with you, I want you to come to West Wind Town to manage the town and serve the people, not to let you come here. Be a double-spend stickman."

No. 32 finally breathed a sigh of relief. After this guy was resurrected, he had flesh on his face and eyeballs in his eye sockets. Now it was easier to capture his expression. Only then did Robb realize that it was an expression. A very rich guy, his eyes are gurgling fast, his guilty conscience just now, and now he is relieved, all of which can be expressed on his thin face.

He was a little guilty and said: "I really want us to take care of it, but we have to collect taxes."

"No problem, collect!" Robb laughed: "It should be collected tax, but I need to give you my own opinions and views on the way to collect tax."

He was polite, but Number 32 understood that what he meant by this sentence was: "The way to collect taxes must be as I say."

No. 32 thought: Got it, it's the nobles again. They are trying their best to collect taxes from the common people, but they must be exempted from taxes. All nobles in the world play this trick! That's right, I'm also a nobleman, and I like the tax exemption for noblemen too!

He was thinking of this when he heard Robb solemnly say: "Although the people of Xifeng Town are a little better than those in other towns, they are still very poor, and they earn so many pitiful silver coins a month. …”

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw that the expressions of several low-level administrative staff behind No. 32 became strange, and they almost flipped the table and shouted, "Ten silver coins?"

It turned out that these low-level administrative staff could not earn ten silver coins a month, but when they heard that this was only the income of the townspeople of Xifeng Town, they were almost hanged on the spot.

Robb didn't bother to care about them, and continued: "The townspeople are very poor, and there is no reason to collect taxes from them. Therefore, I suggest that you first collect taxes from the nobles, businessmen, and factory managers. We in Xifeng Town. Although there are not many nobles, almost every noble has property in their hands. Let them count the number of workers in their factories, calculate the number of workers, and then pay taxes according to the number of workers. Each worker receives dozens of copper coins. What specific number should be charged, you can study it and submit it to me, I think it is reasonable, and then implement it!"

Thirty-two sounds a bit dazed!

The group of administrative staff behind him was even more stunned. Everyone looked at each other in dismay. After a while, he heard No. 32 cautiously and tentatively ask: "Tax the nobles, not the commoners?"

Robb: "Yeah, what's the problem?"

No. 32: "You...are you saying the opposite?"

Robb said, "Do I look like the kind of idiot who would say the opposite of something important?"

Khan No. 32 said: "If you do this, the nobles will protest...will..."

"Fight the bullshit." Robb laughed: "Who protested to let him come to me! I am a cold-blooded, resolute sofa, and a brutal dictator. Those who oppose my policies will be driven out of West Wind Town and let him Find a place to hang out yourself."

Thirty-two: "..."

Robb is really not worried about this. In fact, he has been talking to the nobles for a long time, through the tone of tax collection, but the nobles really don't care about paying a tax to Robb, because they can have The current income is all thanks to Robb, not to mention taxation, even if Robb said he wanted some money to spend, the nobles would take the initiative to send a lot of gold coins, only looking forward to Robb's future Keep playing them with new tricks.

If they offend Robb for a little tax, they really don't deserve to be in the ever-growing place of Westwind Town.

Moreover, when Robb was talking, these nobles had already thought about it, if each worker handed in 30 copper coins per head, when they recruited workers, the promised salary was reduced by 30 copper coins. For example, it was originally 15 silver coins to hire a person, but in the future, it is enough to use 14 silver coins and 70 copper coins to hire a person, and the taxes will eventually fall on the heads of the poor.

Avoiding taxes this way is pretty simple, and there's no need to fight Godfather on this sort of thing.

Robb also knew that they were planning to do this, but he did not expose the idea of ​​the nobles. It is impossible to completely tax the poor, let alone in the Middle Ages, and in later generations. People whose income is so low that they can't even meet the minimum tax payment standard, go out to buy something, and that thing also carries a lot of taxes.

The reason why he wants to set rules like this is just to establish a basic rule, so that later imitators will also respect this tax collection idea of ​​"taxing the rich". As long as this big thought framework is formed, the people themselves will think A way to resist the little tricks played by the capitalists.

In the continuous resistance, the tax plan will become more and more perfect, and the step-by-step tax collection and other plans will gradually surface.

It's not his job to take care of these things. It's so annoying to take care of them, it's better to be lazy.

Robb said to No. 32: "The tax you are about to collect will be a huge sum of money larger than you think, because my West Wind Town is much richer than ordinary towns, and the tax will definitely be more. , but... if I catch you embezzling public funds, you will die worse than tax evaders."

No. 32 hurriedly said: "We must not be corrupt, we will only hand over the money to Her Majesty the Queen."

"Wait!" Robb said, "Of course, the tax collected by this town must be used first in this town. If you don't use it on the local townspeople, what the hell do you mean by handing it over to the national treasury?"

Chapter 457 I am the people

No. 32 said: "It's fine to hand over the tax collected to the treasury, you won't let it go? Then this is still not the territory of the Gran Kingdom? If you say no, we... must... must... ... duel!" The voice was shaking.

This man was too vain, but the administrative staff with lower identities behind him bravely stepped forward, staring at Robb, blowing his beard, and looking like he was going to be stubborn: "This is my Gran Kingdom. Of course, the tax collected here should be handed over to the treasury of the Gran Kingdom. If you have to interfere with this most basic principle, what is the point of us coming here? You should kill us all.”

Robb applauded: "Yes, yes, you are all good, dare to fight against power, and have the spirit of sacrificing yourself. This kind of person is really the backbone of the country."

This compliment is sincere! No "wow" at all. If you want to do a good job in a country, it is not something like the thirty-two who are greedy for life and fear of death. It must be done by people who are courageous and hard-working.

Robb said: "You don't have to look like you have to work hard and try to die. I am the most reasonable person. Next, I will reason with you. Listen to me if it makes sense. By the way, put the crystal When the ball is taken out, I will also tell it to Miss Queen at the same time."

No. 32 took out the communication crystal ball from his arms, put it on the table, dialed it, and the queen entered the audit mode.

Robb first said "wow" to the queen: "You actually gave No. 32 a strategic communication crystal ball, which shows that you attach great importance to my West Wind Town, and you have high hopes for this group of administrative staff. ,Is it?"

The queen hummed, noncommittal.

Robb said: "They said just now that they want to collect taxes and send the money back to the treasury, and I disagree, and then they want to slap me. Now I'm going to reason with them. Come and listen to me and see if I'm right. reason."

The queen said: "Okay, I will listen carefully and make a fair decision."

Robb said: "This is the territory of the Gran Kingdom, and the income here should be handed over to the treasury. I have no problem with this sentence. I think it makes perfect sense."

The queen knew that there must be a sequel to these words, so she didn't even bother to hum.

Sure enough, Robb immediately replied: "But since this is the territory of the Gran Kingdom, the people here are also the citizens of the Gran Kingdom, and they should also enjoy the rights that the citizens of the Gran Kingdom should enjoy, right? ? In theory, the treasury should also allocate funds to this town, at least to cover the town's expenses, right?"

The queen showed a puzzled look: "What expenses can I have? Why don't I know what administrative expenses a town needs?"

It turns out that these days, the central government basically doesn't care about local development, just collects taxes, and everything else is left to the locals themselves to toss and toss, and the local wealthy people pay for the construction of roads and bridges themselves, and the central government never pays a penny.

Robb said: "Other towns don't need any expenditure, that's because those lands are the fiefs of the nobles, and the nobles manage them themselves, but my West Wind Town has not been entrusted to any nobles. Who pays for the money? Otherwise, I will pay for it, and you will entrust this town to me, dare you?"

Queen:"……"

This town is now equivalent to Robb's fief, and it is independent. Robb's occupation of this place is not justified. If she really assigns Westwind Town to Robb, then this place will really become Robb's private property. The ghost is going to give this town to Robb!
