Vol 4 Chapter 148: Hot spring city

"It seems that you have also noticed this problem. ``" Servini nodded to Xu. "This shows that this problem is very serious and can no longer be delayed."

"Procrastination?" Xu also frowned. "What? Is it difficult to change this?"

When I saw the crowded traffic at the gate of the city just outside the city of Anweimar, Xu also thought about the problem of canceling the tax on the city.

When he entered the city and had not had time to meet with Steele, he was directly found by the waiter sent by the palace, and told Her Majesty to call him the first time.

Just as Xu also had a lot of things to set up the tone with Servini as soon as possible, so let Lisi and Linda, Yanis escorted Frya to the appointed place to see Steele, and they saw the waiter enter the palace. Severini.

Upon seeing Sevigny, Xu also first spoke out his own knowledge at the gate of the city, and then proposed to Sevigny the obvious obsolete thing to cancel the city tax.

Sevigny strongly agrees with his proposal, but now seems to have encountered difficulties.

"Of course." Servin spread his hands and looked a little helpless. “The city gate tax has always been an important source of income for major cities in the kingdom. If you want to cancel it at once, it will certainly cause opposition from many people.”

Xu Yi brows a little, and he doesn't understand.

“What age is this? Is there a city that relies on urban taxation as the main tax revenue?”

Sevigny gave him a glance: "Of course, like the city of Bangta, the annual tax revenue is even more than two million gold coins. Is there no need to pay for the city tax? Tell you, according to the financial statistics of this year. There are a total of thirty-seven cities in the Kingdom of Pali. More than half of the city’s annual tax revenue is even less than 200,000 gold coins. For these cities, more than 50,000 gold coins can be collected into the city in one year. Tax is of course very important."

Xu also could not help but shook his head: "The Ming Dynasty has such a good example of Bangta City, but I don't know how to study it. I still guard the ancient traditions and live the poor days. What are the city owners thinking about? Sevigny, should this be regarded as the dereliction of your Majesty's majesty? It is a city in the Kingdom of Lampari. You can't be inferior."

Severini snorted softly, like a little girl, slightly pouting.

"When do you not want to make all the cities in the kingdom as rich as Bangta City? But it takes time. Besides, every city in the kingdom is different. Take the northwestern province. For several cities, because the terrain there is particularly complicated, it is extremely difficult to repair a road in the past, and the traffic is extremely unfavorable. If it is yours, would you like to go there to invest and build a factory?"

Xu can only shake his head.

He is a businessman, of course, choose the method of maximizing profits.

In the northwestern provinces, such a remote mountainous area with extremely inconvenient transportation, the investment cost required will be several times that of investing in other cities. He certainly will not do this kind of loss business.

"So, even if I want to change the situation of the whole kingdom, I can only come slowly." Servini gave a look at Xu. "Isn't this what you used to say to me?"

Xu also touched his nose. He thought that he was not in his position and he was not the king of the Lampari Kingdom. Naturally, you don't have to worry about the whole of the Kingdom of Lampari.

"But this thing is not without a solution." Xu also suddenly turned his head. "Just take this city tax as an example. If the reform of the entire kingdom is opposed at the same time, then it will be opposed. Then we will select a few pilots."

"Pilot?" Servini looked at Xu Yi with a puzzled look.

"Remember that I hope that Lampari XIII will set the Bangta City area as a special economic zone before?" Xu also asked.

"Well, that idea is good, but unfortunately, because of the situation in the kingdom, it has not been implemented. I had thought about re-implementing the plan before, but I was temporarily put on hold because of concerns." Servini said.

"Now it is different from before. I used to want Bangta City to become a special economic zone. It is convenient for me to make some reforms in Bangta City. Now the whole kingdom is under your control, why should we force a special economic zone out? Of course, this program is used to change the tax on the city, that is, you can first pick out a few cities as a pilot, let these cities cancel the city tax, as an experiment." Xu Yidao.

"I understand what you mean." Servini nodded. "If the test results are good, then there is no reason for opposition in other cities. But if the effect is not good? And even if the effect is good, but some cities in the kingdom do not have the conditions to cancel the city tax, what should I do? ”

"Simple, you will force this reform plan by then. As for those conditions that are not enough, like the cities in the western provinces, they will receive subsidies and special support from the kingdom's finances."

Xu also described the practical operability of this scheme to Servini based on various reforms that were previously available on Earth.

Although he does not know how the details should be implemented, he is not a talent in this way, so he only needs to make a general direction.

And when Sevigny heard these general schemes, his eyes were beaming, and obviously he had found the answer.

"In addition, subsidies from the kingdom's finances cannot solve this problem fundamentally, nor can they make fundamental changes to those cities with poor conditions. Therefore, I suggest that we also find ways to solve the problems of these cities and increase their tax revenue. This is the key."

Sevigny gave Xu a look: "You can say it is easy. If there is such a good way, I have already used it."

After saying that Xu’s face was like a smile and a smile, Servini immediately moved: “You have a solution in your heart, right?”

Xu also smiled slightly: "This is just a rough idea for me, not a solution."

"Don't worry so much, let's listen to it?" Servini looked like he was interested.

Xu also coughed and slowly opened his mouth.

"Since different cities have different conditions, then don't limit each city to the same as Bangta City, relying on the development of magic industry to become rich. After all, apart from the magic industry, there are many other industries that can make money. ""

Sevigny gave a slight glimpse.

From the mouth of Xu Yi, the president of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce, he suggested that he proposed to develop an industry outside the magic industry, which was greatly unexpected.

"For example...Batru City. When I was passing by, I found that there is really no scarce resource in this city of Batru. It is also because there are many mountains and rivers, and the terrain is not good. If you want to develop, it is very limited. But there But another very precious resource."

"What resources?" Sevigny asked, while he remembered the information he had seen about Batru City in his mind, but still couldn't remember anything worth noting.

"It's the hot spring."

"Spa?" Serviny's brows are slightly wrinkled. “I heard that there are many natural hot springs on the hills near Batru City. It is very comfortable to soak in it. But what is the use?”

"Of course it is useful." Xu also exaggeratedly raised his voice. “The hot springs represent not only excellent tourism resources, but also a large amount of geothermal resources. If you can make good use of it, you can definitely build Batru City into a hot spring city and attract many people to travel there. And because of the abundance of geothermal resources, the entire Batru City actually needs only a little development to meet this requirement."

“The city of hot springs?” Servini frowned for a moment and nodded lightly. "This is a good proposal, but it definitely requires a lot of initial investment, but it is a problem..."

Looking down and thinking for a while, Severini found that this was not something that could be thought of in a moment and a half. Then he put it aside and asked Xu also: "So what about the cities in the northwestern province? There is nothing there. Rich in hot spring resources, the terrain is even worse than Batru City. How can you change this situation?"

Xu Yizhen smiled: "The dear Queen, in fact, as long as you are willing, even if the terrain of the cities in the northwestern provinces is complicated and complicated, there is a way to build a road inside them to make their traffic smooth. Oh."

Servini sighed and shook his head. "No. I have let the Amley Chamber of Commerce go to the field to explore. President Cruise said to me personally that they could do nothing. Even the Amrit Chamber of Commerce can't do it. I don't think this thing is possible at all."

Xu Yihaha smiled and said: "That is because President Cruise has not discussed with me before. If he knows that our Chamber of Commerce will be able to develop a new engineering magic machine with higher power and higher performance, I believe he is sure. Will withdraw this sentence."

Severini squatted up and down, and his face looked a little bit angry and a little funny.

"After a long time, you have come to me to promote the latest products of your chamber of commerce? Xu Huichang, you have the leisure to promote your newly developed engineering magic machinery, then I have to ask, I ordered from your Chamber of Commerce. When will the 100 magical airships be delivered? If there are one hundred magical airships, I don’t think any responsible terrain will be a hindrance?"

"This is..." Xu also smiled slyly. "The Queen's Majesty, the magic airship will also be greatly limited, not as strong as you think. As for when to deliver it... Our Chamber of Commerce is working hard to increase production capacity, I believe that it will take a long time to give you an accurate answer."

Sevigny snorted, but did not continue to ask Xu Yi.

Xu also wiped a sweat and decided to put this topic aside first, touched it in his arms, and took out a thin booklet and handed it over.

"When I first entered the city, I saw a lot of magic locomotives waiting outside the city gate. I suddenly thought of a problem, and I recorded this and asked the Queen to leave you."

Sevigni certainly wouldn’t believe that this booklet was made by Xu’s temporary intentions, but when his expression was so solemn, he nodded and picked it up.

Looking through the cover, I found that the first page was written with a long headline in the big words - on the important role of energy standardization in the magic industry system. (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
